I liked the 2005 version a lot. The one mistake Peter Jackson made in my opinion is he tried too hard to make us like and feel for Kong. In the original, he was a monster and the girl was afraid of him from start to finish (never quite sure what his intentions were). The audience felt bad for Kong anyway, even though there was no real attempt to endear him to us. PJ took the modern approach of treating the audience like mindless idiots and trying to force us to like Kong.
@442hoeky Agreed. Its an impressive technical achievement and the storyline is good overall, but the beauty and the beast theme was taken a step too far.
@CHADE47lol Probably. But I don't think the silver back of a troop hides even from leopards. A 500 pound gorilla can put on a heck of a show when threatened and I doubt most leopards would risk a fight.
@staff50ord Actually, I liked the 2005 version. it's not as great as the original, but it's still a good remake compared to other remakes. And I do agree with you with the other one.
I've been open minded to both old and new "special effects" and I simply like the way things were done in the past. All the way from the actors, story, cinematography and so on. I simply like the atmosphere of film from the past.
Everything today is speed and overload. As if people are too stupid to respond to anything else and there's a point in that. I'd rather have something seductive and personal as opposed to fast and shiny.
I wrote 11 of the most hateful poems while sitting behind the dashboard at a drive in theater because I got so tired of watching Marky Marks tough guy mouth puffing in Planet.
As for MPM, perhaps a reply film titled "Get your own damn Ape" is in order.
Incidentally I loath most post 70's mainstream Hollywood films and directors.
Did you hear? King Kong 15's coming out this week. Better special effects even still and all the while "keeping it close" to the original. Better get it there ah Spongebob.
As far as Dynamation vs. CGI goes,CGI can be better,but it can look totally shitty too,do the Dragon's from Reign of fire look any better than the stop motion dragon from Dragon slayer,Hell no! And what about the very current Coraline stop motion film vs. Kung fu panda,they both look very good,it's easy to compare a 2005 film to a 1933 one,ofcourse it'll look way better! Why don't they compare Tippet's stop motion Jurrassic park story board,to Jurrassic park there's not much difference at all.
I love all three the first and classic because of what it was and what it did for its time and all the rest that it inspired,imagine being in the theater and the level of awe from watching this near impossible fight unfold before you!the seconds my nostalgia value even though im 21 its the one we all grew up with and Peter Jacksons brought so much more of what we didnt know about Skull Island and struck that same level of imaginative exploration,when do u ever get to explore in a movie
Who cares about bullshit nostalgia? I mean really, what the fuck? This one was entertaining and all and may touch your hearts more because of its age but the 2005 remake is a better movie, and I'm not just saying that because it looks pretty. You can say this one is your favorite, but it isn't the best one. If you know what I mean.
@MicroHelper Yeah, the story for Avatar is kind of weak, but AT LEAST their better than some shitty movies like The Last Airbender, Transformers 2 & 3, etc.
Who are you to tell me that I cannot have an opinion? If Jackson is a genius, then he is a flawed genius, because his Kong does not look as ferocious as the ORIGINAL "King Kong".
Nobody including Peter Jackson is above criticism, so quit the Guru worship.
This is one of the most awesomely choreographed fight sequences in any film, and when you take into consideration the painstaking way it was done, it's even more remarkable. Visually and audibly, it perfectly captures all the raw brutality of these two prehistoric beasts duking it out in classic showdown style. All this debate over CGI vs. stop motion is irrelevant; this fight's GOT GUTS! They'll never match it let alone top it, no matter how much hi-tech and T-rexes they cram into it.
Although Peter Jackson's King Kong is far superior as far as special effects go, it just doesn't have the magic of the original movie. Jackson's movie, just like a previous remake back in the 1970's, makes the same basic mistake of making Kong look like a normal, but enormous mountain Gorilla instead of the fearsome looking ape like monster created by Willis O'Brien.
CLUE: If your going to do a remake of King Kong, FFS make Kong look exactly like he does in this film clip.
Willas O'Brian probably would've given his front teeth for the CGI techniques used by Jackson since Stop Motion is a time consuming process. this fight if I remember right took almost seven weeks to complete. Here's a challenge watch the entire 7 minute Kong vs. V-Rex fight in the Jackson verson and then try to recreate it move for move in Stop Motion and see how long it takes you to do with the 1933 techniques
@snakes3425 If I want to see a live gorilla I still gotta go to the zoo. Otherwise I have to watch a movie or nature show or check out a book or the internet. How is that so different than 1933? What is the internet but information that people used to get in their local libraries and in newsreels? If we've got "superior knowledge" of gorillas today, then Jackson's film should be spot-on and it's not.
@snakes3425 Just an additional thought: As far as real gorillas go, Peter Jackson's version isn't exact either; for one thing he's bouncing and flying around all over the place as lightly as a feather. Actual gorillas don't move so fast - they have a lumbering gait because they're heavy, just like the '33 Kong. So, which one is closer to an actual gorilla? It all depends on your point of view.
@snakes3425 My point is that the reason why the original Kong deviates somewhat from an actual gorilla has nothing to do with the lack of knowledge; Producers Cooper and Schoedsack were explorers who saw gorillas face to face. You can't beat that for experience. When they made their film they purposely went for a monster that was "gorilla like", not simply a genuine gorilla. Their decision was purely from a dramatic standpoint.
Very nice. It's very hard to find just ONE scene from old movies like this.I have been looking for this one, you just got a load off of my back, thank you.
WHAT??? People in 1933 knew what gorillas looked like just as well as we do now - they had zoos too. In the original KING KONG, the ape is a monstrous, prehistoric simian hyrid; he wasn't meant to be a literal gorilla, a fact people like Peter Jackson forget. In the '05 remake the CGI effects are way overdone and too cartoony - just a very long computer game. I'm not gonna praise it just because it's the "latest thing". The original KING KONG is a far, FAR better film, hands down.
1933 wasn't 2011, Zoos were few and far between and were often only in major cities, if you lived in the country back then the only time you would see a Gorillia would be if the circus came to town and they had one or by reading Adventure Magazines, Comic Books, Adventure Stories set in Africa, or books written about expeditions into the interior of Africa, as for which is better Kong 33 will always win that debate hands down because it's the original, the film that made Kong famous
The 2005 was a remake not a re-release of the 1933 verson, yes Jackson did change things and used a differnet style of effects, but the story of the orignal was intact. There were things that had to be done differently, Kong had to look like a real Gorillia because everyone knows what a Gorillia looks like, unlike 1933 where very few people had ever seen a Gorillia, times change and unless and industry changes with the times it will go belly up
That comes off hillariously flat and funny compared to the new one, but well, back then it was a thrilling movie i guess and all technology had a beginning!
the fight is amazing, is longer that the remake and actually and personally i like more because the rex fight more than the new one, in the new movie kong destroys the dinosaur, and in this one is pretty matched until the end
Goodness gracious!!! i don't think anything else on,what was that place called,"monster island"??, would wanna mess with king kong after that.Only thing missing after that beat down was somebody to wrap the champions belt around his waist,LOL!! I mean i know none of us speaks ape,but i think that's what he was asking for whilst he was roaring while beating his chest at the end of that scuffle!!! LOL2:49-2:57LO L LOL ! ! !
Despite the T-rex looking like the old interpretation with it dragging its tail, this battle is much better than the new one. In this the T-rex is larger but Kong uses agility and intellect to defeat it. In the new one he just annihaltes the Rexes like they're nothing.
i can't stress enough how much i hate this scene and the modern one, it;s called biteforce of the tyrannosaurus, kong is no match at all, first of all how the hell does kong get a hold of the dino's leg? Pure bullshit and the modern one is the same, T-rex wins by knockout because of its biteforce!
@Justinian43 I was talking more about the look of the T-Rex rather than the animation. I just prefer the old look. Also you gotta have respect for this stuff. This was done back in 1933 if I'm not mistaken and they had to do this frame by frame!
so much better then the 2005 fight scene. this fight is evenly matched and you can actually see the fight. in the remake its just random dinosaurs falling off trees and trying to eat the girl
@PicKPiT Dude the special FX in this movie was 10 times better than movies made in the 70's/80's. You have to consider this was a groundbreaking moment for that kind of FX.
Nowadays Stop Motion is only used for kids movies(I.E. Wallace and Grommit) and TV ads.
I think the only reason the remakes were made is so they could see what the movie would look like with the current technology,Peter Jackson's King Kong was epic length to make that seem less obvious.
Anyway this scene is both funny and epic at the same time,which is very hard to do.
You know no matter how old this is it's still better than alot of action scenes and effects today. Nowadays it's all flashy CGI explosions and all the action is filmed so close you can hardly tell what's going on and it doesn't look nearly as cool. It's a sad thing films like these aren't made anymore.
@balrog13571 Michael Bay's the worst offender when it comes to CGI explosions and over-the-top action.
This scene is perfect because it's not over-the-top it's, well, perfect. Unlike a certain Clash of the Titans 2010 Medusa battle. (If you haven't already, don't see that movie. Really stupid IMO)
@balrog13571 Trust me... the WHOLE MOVIE was like that, from the scorpion battle to the Kraken (Who sadly didn't get much screen time.) Not to mention Perseus' military-shaved head (Which I think seems odd for Greek mythology) and the fact Bubo only makes a SMALL cameo.
If given a choice to watch a monster movie with a CGI monster, or the same monster movie with Ray Harryhausen's special effects, I'd choose Ray anyday. There's a certain charm to his effects that can't be beaten.
True. It seems a bit odd people don't mention Willis O'Brien though. He created the effects in this and other movies like Son of Kong and Might Joe Young (which Harryhausen assisted with and learned from him about certain things). maybe it's because Ray's still alive or something. A bit odd we don't credit actors and directors in the movies they worked with either.

A bit odd we don't credit actors and directors in the movies they worked with either.
Well, it all matters on which type of special effects works for certain action sequences, if you ask me. Sometimes puppetry and prosthetics and scale models are the most effective solution, but there are also occasions in which computer-generated imagery achieves the best results.
True but I personally prefer this fight for example to something the new one. Around the point where they land in the vines it's hilarious the way the T-rex is STILL going for Ann Darrow even if she's probably only a mouthful, it's hanging above a pit, and a giant ape is going at them. You can see the fight here with all the primal brutality in shots that don't look like the camera is pressed to them.
@balrog13571 I couldn't agree with you more. Don't get me wrong, i love "most" of the action movies today. Like Avatar. but mainly during the time CGI was still experimental, like first 2 Terminator movies. But if asked me about what i think is the 1 movie that was the real groundbreaker in motion picture achievement, there's only 1 movie to pick: KING KONG
Yep. It's not really so much that I hate CGI either, it's that I like don't want other methods cast aside. CGI can do things other methods can't, however it has it's limits too. As I said I think the clunky movements of stop-motion work for giant monsters/dinosaurs/animals/robots. We rely way too heavily on computers today in movies and our personal lives and for all the benefits, there's alot of negatives as well. The key is using them only when they are truely needed.
@balrog13571 I know how you feel. In Star Wars, the earlier episodes have more realistic effects. I was watching Resident Evil: Afterlife and I gagged at the dog effects because The Thing had way better
Okay, saying the fight and special effects were great for the time is one thing, but are you seriously saying this looks better than modern fights and special effects in modern movies?
Robot chicken creates fights this well ten times an epidsode (exaggeration).
Are you really saying that if the newer King Kong movie had these exact effects you would be pleased with the outcome?
I understand it's cool and all, but I think that's too far an accusation.
If you read my other comments you'd see I go into more detail with that. I'm not saying that CGI doesn't have it's benefits and that it looked bad at all or that Jackson's film wasn't good, but I am saying this sort of woorked better. The T-Rex fight in the 2005 version was all over the place it was less convincing movement and fightwise. This kept it as a real primal fight. What's more CGI "dates" itself far easier with constant attempts to improve itself unlike this.
@balrog13571 that, just ain't true. it's great to see old pictures, but when you're goin' all hippie style with saying the effects are better in the old days? man plz....
Again if you read my other comments I back that statement up more. I said the editing and movement for these two was better. Besides it's a comment I made 8 months ago. It doesn't need to have an effect on your personal opinion.
Wow I never thought a comment made nine months ago would cause such a whiplash from people. Ah the idea of putting highest rated comments up so everyone can see them and get ticked off about them and see to it that my inbox keeps getting responses telling me how wrong I am. Thanks Youtube.
To answer your question though I'm nineteen years old and I was only saying the editing and movements were better. I never said CGI was terrible, just that this was a more enjoyable fight.
loved how its like a "Real" fight, Kong is ducking and doging the blows like a boxer and counters back at the T-Rex. It was more than 2 stop motion puppets thowing punchings, there is real life fighting going on between the 2 gaints. I think they may have study some fight film to know how this fight would play out.
I have to question the decision to not score this scene. The film has an incredibly exciting score by steiner, and yet it isn't used in the most exciting scene of the movie. Odd decision. A classic scene regardless. A++++
@Trystaticus Source-less music (as in not emanating from within the scene itself; like a character's car stereo) accompanying a fantastical scene such as this would highlight the illusion of it all, detract from the realism. It helps that there's no score in this scene, IMO.
this king kong vs t-rex is better than that v-rex vs king kong. 3 v-rex's got there asses kick by kong and t-rex kick kongs ass by in the kong still won
The matte paintings and miniatures in King Kong (1933) have a unique, surreal look. It makes the film seem like a nightmare. The newer versions all have generic jungles settings. For shame.
I liked the 2005 version a lot. The one mistake Peter Jackson made in my opinion is he tried too hard to make us like and feel for Kong. In the original, he was a monster and the girl was afraid of him from start to finish (never quite sure what his intentions were). The audience felt bad for Kong anyway, even though there was no real attempt to endear him to us. PJ took the modern approach of treating the audience like mindless idiots and trying to force us to like Kong.

Did you know that there is an unedited version of this great film that lasts 103 minutes (instead of 100) which reveals a fouler tempered Kong???
Although I have yet to see the unedited version.I read about it when I googled about the film.I would very much like to see this version!! :)
Ooh,that bone crunching sound of the T Rex's jaw goes right through you!!! Nasty!!

Despite the T-rex looking like the old interpretation with it dragging its tail, this battle is much better than the new one. In this the T-rex is larger but Kong uses agility and intellect to defeat it. In the new one he just annihaltes the Rexes like they're nothing.

My comments on all 3 King Kong movies:
1933:pretty good,no telling how classic it is.
1976:G-A-R-B-A-G-E,has nothing to do with the original.
2005:definitely the best and the closest to the original.

@PicKPiT Dude the special FX in this movie was 10 times better than movies made in the 70's/80's. You have to consider this was a groundbreaking moment for that kind of FX.

I think the only reason the remakes were made is so they could see what the movie would look like with the current technology,Peter Jackson's King Kong was epic length to make that seem less obvious.
Anyway this scene is both funny and epic at the same time,which is very hard to do.

You know no matter how old this is it's still better than alot of action scenes and effects today. Nowadays it's all flashy CGI explosions and all the action is filmed so close you can hardly tell what's going on and it doesn't look nearly as cool. It's a sad thing films like these aren't made anymore.
balrog13571 1 year ago 14
@balrog13571 Michael Bay's the worst offender when it comes to CGI explosions and over-the-top action.
This scene is perfect because it's not over-the-top it's, well, perfect. Unlike a certain Clash of the Titans 2010 Medusa battle. (If you haven't already, don't see that movie. Really stupid IMO)

I saw part of the Medusa fight on here and yes it was bad. All the suspense from the original was gone and Medusa's look was just... bad.
balrog13571 1 year ago
@balrog13571 Trust me... the WHOLE MOVIE was like that, from the scorpion battle to the Kraken (Who sadly didn't get much screen time.) Not to mention Perseus' military-shaved head (Which I think seems odd for Greek mythology) and the fact Bubo only makes a SMALL cameo.
If given a choice to watch a monster movie with a CGI monster, or the same monster movie with Ray Harryhausen's special effects, I'd choose Ray anyday. There's a certain charm to his effects that can't be beaten.

True. It seems a bit odd people don't mention Willis O'Brien though. He created the effects in this and other movies like Son of Kong and Might Joe Young (which Harryhausen assisted with and learned from him about certain things). maybe it's because Ray's still alive or something. A bit odd we don't credit actors and directors in the movies they worked with either.

Well, it all matters on which type of special effects works for certain action sequences, if you ask me. Sometimes puppetry and prosthetics and scale models are the most effective solution, but there are also occasions in which computer-generated imagery achieves the best results.
SSM1911 11 months ago
@SSM1911
True but I personally prefer this fight for example to something the new one. Around the point where they land in the vines it's hilarious the way the T-rex is STILL going for Ann Darrow even if she's probably only a mouthful, it's hanging above a pit, and a giant ape is going at them. You can see the fight here with all the primal brutality in shots that don't look like the camera is pressed to them.
balrog13571 11 months ago
@balrog13571 I couldn't agree with you more. Don't get me wrong, i love "most" of the action movies today. Like Avatar. but mainly during the time CGI was still experimental, like first 2 Terminator movies. But if asked me about what i think is the 1 movie that was the real groundbreaker in motion picture achievement, there's only 1 movie to pick: KING KONG
TFTigeressFilms 11 months ago
@TFTigeressFilms
Yep. It's not really so much that I hate CGI either, it's that I like don't want other methods cast aside. CGI can do things other methods can't, however it has it's limits too. As I said I think the clunky movements of stop-motion work for giant monsters/dinosaurs/animals/robots. We rely way too heavily on computers today in movies and our personal lives and for all the benefits, there's alot of negatives as well. The key is using them only when they are truely needed.

Okay, saying the fight and special effects were great for the time is one thing, but are you seriously saying this looks better than modern fights and special effects in modern movies?
Robot chicken creates fights this well ten times an epidsode (exaggeration).
Are you really saying that if the newer King Kong movie had these exact effects you would be pleased with the outcome?
I understand it's cool and all, but I think that's too far an accusation.

@rrekydoc
If you read my other comments you'd see I go into more detail with that. I'm not saying that CGI doesn't have it's benefits and that it looked bad at all or that Jackson's film wasn't good, but I am saying this sort of woorked better. The T-Rex fight in the 2005 version was all over the place it was less convincing movement and fightwise. This kept it as a real primal fight. What's more CGI "dates" itself far easier with constant attempts to improve itself unlike this.

loved how its like a "Real" fight, Kong is ducking and doging the blows like a boxer and counters back at the T-Rex. It was more than 2 stop motion puppets thowing punchings, there is real life fighting going on between the 2 gaints. I think they may have study some fight film to know how this fight would play out.

I have to question the decision to not score this scene. The film has an incredibly exciting score by steiner, and yet it isn't used in the most exciting scene of the movie. Odd decision. A classic scene regardless. A++++
Trystaticus 1 year ago
@Trystaticus Source-less music (as in not emanating from within the scene itself; like a character's car stereo) accompanying a fantastical scene such as this would highlight the illusion of it all, detract from the realism. It helps that there's no score in this scene, IMO.
