Joe Utichi, Editor of FilmFocus.Co.UK writes: I was lucky enough to be invited to a special Kong preview yesterday in London where I had a chat with Andy Serkis and got to see a work-in-progress version of a scene in which Ann tries to escape from Kong and finds herself being chased by T-Rexes, giant lizards and metre-long centipedes. I was just completely blown away. The footage was far from finished but even in its most basic form (and I use that phrase lightly, this is Peter Jackson we’re talking about) my level of excitement for the film proper was raised immeasurably. And I was already excited.

What impressed me most was a the sound design and the angles of the shots – it’s nothing we’ve ever seen before and it’s so much a feast for the senses that even watching a cell-shaded Kong and Naomi Watts against a green screen was emotional.

Anyway, I’ve written up the whole thing on my site, and I thought you guys might be interested.

Bring on December, that’s all I can say! Universal have promised a screening in the first week of December and I’ll be there – Peter Jackson is about to redefine cinema once again.
