Well I was happy to see Yoda's posts, especially since it makes it perfectly clear:
What beauty really is.
Even XXL knows this.
Now.
I have nothing but mad respect for the legendary film director - Peter Jackson - The Director of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and of Best selling novel of 2004 Lovely Bones (out 2007)
But...
King Kong just did not rub me in the right way and I thought I was alone until I stumbled upon Sheryl McCarthy's 'Blonde is beautiful' mystique
I must admit I could not agree more!
I find this:
some what absurd.
Let's zoom in:
This is rather absurd.
I mean surely, Kong should have had better taste. Okay. Naomi Watts is talented and she looks pretty but I mean the figure! Really.
Below is her full length picture.
I know what you are thinking and I agree.
They would have at least put on a sexy bodied lady! Like Jessica alba say.
But the connotations of racisms in the movie were truly more on the Skull Island dwellers, they were so black I could harldy see them. And whether you would like to admit it or not, this was stack contrast to the whites back in the civilized world.
Okay at least one of the key roles was done by a balck man - a crew man in the ship, which was nice.
We would have happily concluded that the Skull Island dwellers were some imaginary race that does not exist since the Island itself is also non-existant in the real world. Unfortunately, there was teh live performance scene after they captured King Kong that told reaffirmed our fears or created for that matter. On this scene black(negro) actors were depicted as the savages of the Skull Island, to me Peter Jackson had a super white opportunity at this point of going against the original King Kong story and put savage-looking whites, that would have shifted the focus away from the volatile race issues.
Apparently ther are many people who shares my views too.
Note Lord of Rings was fine, and there is no racism in the whole movie. The whites where both heros and villians. The orcs looked mostly black in the movie but they were not negros - They seemed more like some white race that had just not taken a bath and they were full of grim slime that made them look blacker than they really were.
