It looks awesome. Some of the CG looks a bit iffy, but they are probably still working on it, and when it comes to CG the finished product usually looks a lot better than the previews, whether its because of the higher resolution or the extra time spent in post production after the trailer is released. I think it will be a pretty good movie.

I think it looks pretty neat. The CG does look a bit cheap for now, but I'm sure that's temporary.

Is WETA doing the special effects in this?

I also like what I've seen of Jack Black in this role.

Wow. King Kong = hardcore.

I was surprised to see Jack Black...he doesn't seem like he would fit in this movie, but he looks good so far.

Why not? The Kong's still bigger than he is...
