Indeed, that's why I said "most likely." And I don't recall anybody saying anything about them eating King Kong, but oki.

Well, why did you point out they "decided" the Tyrannosaur was a scavenger?

Once again... my wording was "decided that they were most likely scavangers." 'Most likely' means 'probably,' afterall.

But, this is off topic.

Anyway, the movie was great as far as cinematography and all that was concerned but lacked enough ingenuity to carry it through.

Right...

I've officially decided the best part of the money I didn't spend on this movie was the advert for "The Da Vinci Code." Aya.

Yeah, so I just watched it last night, and I'd have to agree with Monster, Aaron and Andy. (and others) It was just too long. I mean, seriously, how many times do you need to see one dinosaur trip over another? The effects were great, but that's not enough to carry the movie.
I must admit that I really liked the bit where Kong was standing there, shaking Ann like a rag doll, after having just run through the jungle with her in hand, (remember how it is exactly he runs), and she's absolutely fine, only unconscious. A little reality goes a loooooooooong way. Well, not as long as this movie.
