| After seeing the clip, though, I am more convinced somebody at the studio freaked out, orders came down from on high for a more "contemporary"-sounding orchestral score, and Jackson's statement was made to a) protect Shore's reputation, and b) start the rumor-control. This is not the first time Universal has done something like this of late. |
I don't know which would disappoint me more - to know that Shore and PJ had a huge massive argument that resulted in Shore leaving or being fired, or that Shore composed a wonderful unique score that was dropped by the studio (much as happened to Yared with his score for Troy).

Well this makes for a potential dvd extra: Shore's score for the film in addition to the score the film is released with with.

Just kidding, I don't really think they'd do that.

Another cat? Perhaps. For love there is also a season; its seeds must be resown. But a family cat is not replaceable like a wornout coat or a set of tires. Each new kitten becomes its own cat, and none is repeated. I am four cats old, measuring out my life in friends that...

That was fabulous. Let us hope that the respect for the original that was shown in this clip translates into a great new Kong movie.

No, that's the teaser.
The man I loved - the man who vanished - he never came back at all. But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

Have you seen the orignal? Otherwise the answer is an obvious yes.

kongisking.net is reporting that there is an international version of the previously released teaser/trailer/whatever that includes a couple extra shots of Kong vs. V-Rex.
I'm also getting a little ancy for a full trailer, but I'd almost rather not see anything else prior to release. The teaser showed more than enough, I think. Of course, if and when the trailer does come out, I'll be powerless to avoid watching it, darn it.

The podcasts or video blogs say that there is at least one scene in the trailer that is not in the film, it is just there to fake viewers out.
