Warner Brothers is working right now on a Special Edition DVD of the original "King Kong" movie from 1933. The DVD will probably be released when PJ's remake of "King Kong" will hit the big screen (December 14th, 2005) and there are some rumours that the DVD will contain a hell of a lot of pretty cool PJ-related extras!!!
Here's the list of the extras:
- 3 featurettes with Peter Jackson
- Tour of Peter Jacksons personal 'Kong' memorabilia
- The Magic of Kongs Stop-Motion Wizardry
- The Mystery of the Spider sequence
- Fascinating feature-length documentary on the Creator of 'King Kong', Merian C. Copper
- Interview with Peter Jackson on how 'King Kong' influenced his filmmaking.
- Theatrical Trailers
Let us hope that these rumours will become true...

...and take a look at www.aintitcoolnews.com. Good ole Harry Knowles posted two very odd but cool pics of the upcoming "King Kong" toyline. BTW you could categorize it as some kind of a spoiler...so prepare yourself for the amazing new look of Kong! ;)
Thatīs all...
