Looks like a slight variation on the LOTR EE DVD coverart. I think they should have done something completely different. Oh well, looks nice enough I guess.

actually.. it looks more like a Carnival side show freak poster. Which does match up with the whole King Kong status since they do put him up on stage for the world to see like a side show freak.

Hence the phrase teaser. It's supposed to 'tease' you

Exactly steebo. It did it's job for me--it certainly got me even more excited about the film.

Plus its got the circus carnival vibe and looks quite nice. I can't imagine why anyone would complain...I mean, this flick is a year and a half away, why would anyone expect much more.

It's not an actual teaser poster - it's a total fake. Peter Jackson & Universal have confirmed.
From Dark Horizons.com:
From Dark Horizons.com:
Last week up in Queensland, Australia was the annual film exhibitors conference showing off lots of advanced footage and movies for the next 12 months. Decorating the hall were a lot of concept posters, most notably this rather sweet and very first ever piece of concept art for Peter Jackson's upcoming new interpretation of "King Kong" was apparently on show. Now be aware, much like the NYC Licensing Show posters, much of the early concept art shown at this convention is NOT what the teaser or final poster artwork will look like - rather it's something the local distributors simply cobble together for the convention and ONLY for that (this stuff isn't actually supposed to be online).
*** Update (18/8) *** - Universal, Peter Jackson and various convention attendees have now all confirmed no such poster has either been made or was at the convention. It's a fake boys and girls.
