An interesting way to pimp the film...showing in front of War of the Worlds and this huge unveiling makes for a good unrolling. Can't wait.

it's LIVE?!

Wow...I now need to never post while feigning attention to a fairly lengthy diatribe from my family. I think I was trying to emphasize it was on TV without saying "On TV" and failed miserably.

They should show the part where Peter Jackson kept falling asleep due to fatigue and had to call Bryan Singer from the Superman Returns set to help direct!

Singer: I watched both the 1930's and 1970's versions on the plane.

Jackson: Go more 1930's

NBC actually showed a teaser of the teaser tonight. It was about 15 seconds long, with less than three seconds of footage. They showed a woman, and then a hairy fist slamming into the ground and scaring off a

I managed to see that brief clip last night. Basically:

Spoiler

There's a t-rex stalking a screaming Ann Darrow, thrilling music playing, when all of a sudden a huge gorilla arm slams into the ground, bisecting the scene. The music stops, the t-rex turns his head towards the camera, close up of Ann Darrow's eyes widening, and that's it.

This is my most anticipated movie of the year, by far. Can't wait. I'm even going to lower myself to watching Fear Factor next week!
