I've still never gotten through any of the bonus discs on LOTR EE, but after seeing that packaging, I'm sold. I can't imagine that Jackson, who seems to take a pretty active role in the DVDs of his films when he has the time, would later have this be part of the inevitable King Kong Special Editions. If anything, this will be a further supplement to whatever extras they come up with for King Kong on DVD.

Bah. Who cares? Like nobody nowdays doesn't know how they do a movie like this. $40, I'd rather spend that on the original, Son, and Mighty Joe Young box and have an enough for some popcorn. Jackson's KK will be like two years ago Hulk-big opening, dies fast.
Is it me or does anyone really want to see a CG ape?
I might sound negative, sorry, I'm really hoping this will be good, I do, but I'm not a Jackson fan and disagree with Uni.

But buying just special features for a movie that may or may not even be very good? Hmm...
If you're not excited about King Kong I can understand not giving a damn about this set. But some of us are and we're looking forward to getting this release. Peter Jackson is a fan of his fans so I know this won't disappoint.

A beautiful package, only it's missing Disc One: THE MOVIE!!!
It's a specialty item for the nuts. The rest of us will see the movie before the making-of.
*note: don't take that "nuts" too personally- I'm a nut for anything Kubrick and will happily admit that.

It just makes me crazy i guess that everyone bitches about cool packages and movie promo stuff in other regions and then everyone goes nuts when the charge criterion price for a killer set like this...
I hope the Movie SE is great as well, but only in addition to this.
