I think I speak for a lot of people when I say No It Doesn't.
It looks nice, yes, but far from what I was expecting from PJ and WETA. The environments look fake, the CG Dinosaurs don't share the same space with the other characters, and worst of all, Jack Black looks like a grotesque, bizarre, awful casting mistake.
I think for a lot of other people when I say Yes It Does. Obviously, I'm handicapping it as a first trailer, but even so - the environments look deliciously stylistic, Jack Black looked fine to me, and the CG will improve before the final cut.
And King looks awesome. And... well... BIG.
BTW, I recommend checking out #7 in Bryan Singer's video blog. In it, he's called out to help dead-on-his-feet (and skinny as hell) PJ on the set of King King. Poor PJ looks like hell.
It was a Vlog crossover. The other half is "day 131" in PJ's kongisking.com production diaries.
I don't hate Jack Black. I even like the guy. He just seems utterly wrong here. And of course it's only a trailer, and thing can get better. But right now, it doesn't look as amazing as it should.
However, come over to FishEye and make your opinion heard, cause popular opinion looks pretty bad there right now. Lovers of the trailer need a leader.
