@lilleo1968 Me too!

@videozfann - Cable killed this sort of thing. I love the quote in the 1933 original:
"Oh no, It wasn't the airplanes. It was beauty killed the beast."

I saw this movie when I was little, I thought it was a mistake too kill Kong at the end. Years later, when they had the recent remake. I liked this one better. Still hate too see Kong die at the end.

When seeing the movies was a big event on tv.

I remember in 1993 when on the day the World Trade Center got bombed, this showed on NBC channel 3. I thought that was a freaky thing to happen, since the movie climax was at the World Trade Center with Dwan crying at the end.

WAY COOL!

Anybody have the big event for 2 night special for MACARTHUR with extra footage?

thanks for uplaoding this clip!
networks and cable don't do these promos anymore, they just start the movie, which is sad, no buildup, no expectation

I would love to get my hands on a copy of the original 1978 broadcast with all the commercials intact.
