One Bad Ass African & a Pretty Cool Giant Monkey (No Correlation)

Well, they've discovered him: the biggest bad ass on the planet. This guy has to be the craziest son of a bitch in the world... Very The Ghost and the Darkness... Read this article, trust me... The title is nowhere near as cool as the events listed.

Thanks to Jason for the link..

I watched the trailer for Peter Jackson's new 'King Kong' remake... Thanks to Tripp for sending it to me. It looks very pretty (as is Jackson's way), and Adrien Brody actually strikes me as hot for the three seconds that they show him. Jack Black seems like he'll do a good job; he's got that 1930s Hollywood director thing down (and Tenacious D is AWESOME).. Though I saw a little more glossy CGI than I cared for, which I've become frightened of thanks to George Lucas and his new Star Wars (He's a CGI addict!.. and yes - that is an actual screenshot from Episode III; NOT a cartoon). I have to admit though, Peter Jackson used computer graphics very tastefully in 'The Lord of the Rings', and I'm sure he'll do the same here. I'm just wondering how they're going to pull off a love story between a giant monkey and a tiny blonde that will appeal to the modern-day audience. I hope it's not as squirmingly touchy as the original was.... Anyway, check it out for yourselves...
