The wife and I were going to see Aeon last weekend, but somehow we forgot.
I think it has been ages since we have been . . . problem with the theaters is how close they tend to be to the malls here . . . makes it a nightmare on the weekend . . .

It was very good. It is constantly keeping you interested, and they did a great job as far as remaking memorable things that happened, like when he plays with the TRex's jaw after he crushes it. They really captured the original Kong.
I give it two thumbs up, and that girl.......ohhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm.
It had plenty of enough to make it peter jacksons retelling, but it still was faithful to the 33 classic, which is one of my favirites ever made.
I think a lot of directors are doing that now, charlie and the chocolate factory was a VERY good remake as well, I thought. It is like Half Life DM, I want the SAME FREAKING THING, but with the new coders and devs making it their own. Don't try to improve upon it, or make it better, make it your own, but stay true to the original.
Kong was great.
