    It looks good but not great. Anyway most of us already know the ending.

    I've been enjoying the production diaries over at www.kongisking.net/index.shtml. If you're at all interested in how these types of movies are made, they go into a lot of detail.

    Unfortunately they've had to take down the diaries that were made during filming due to the DVD version coming out soon. But the post-production diaries are still there, and continually being added to.

    ... and the 2 iPod processes that they install, one as a SYSTEM service.

    There are some MOV codecs you can find that will play them in windows media player so you don't have to go through apples crap, but its something you shouldn't have to do.

    If anyone knows a better way I'm interested :)

    Yeah, it was a pain to download the new Quicktime. It was buggy and I had to retart my computer the get it to finally work. But it was worth it. The trailer for King Kong kicks ass. I especially like how over the top Jack Black is as an old school film producer. That is how they talked back then if you ever see anything from back then.
