56, New England, Illustrator, big fan since the 90's.
Have a bunch of his stuff on vinyl.
It's just the right mix of sad, weird, and intellectual.

I'm responding to your response, lol.
But, maybe you're too dumb to get that.
Don't be a jerk.
Cheers.

It's not my opinion, I'm asking you why the OP should take yours, though?
I'm, saying you sound like you're trying to be mean, and I think you should stop, lol.
That's what's up.

And, why should he take your opinion over his own personal experience?
I feel like you're trying to be a jerk.
Maybe, cut it out, lol?

I think I grew up on the theatrical cut, and it has the voice over.
Read into all the different cuts, because there's one without vo, that i think i disliked.
It's a lotta homework for a fucking movie, you know?

Yeah, it's not as good a story as some of the others you mention.
It was also a famously troubled production, you should look into it.
I always felt maybe that had something to do with it not quite gelling.

Yeah, i grew up with it and it's one of the first of it's kind of depicting the" future as being old". It's very influential with it's art direction, sets and style.
But, it's cult movie for a reason. More sizzle than steak.
I love it, because I'm of it's time, but I get people not loving it now.
The sequel is really good, and it updates the stylization very well.

King Kong is my favorite movie, so this piece of trivia means a lot to me.
