Peter Jackson, in his stinker version of King Kong, had a 45 minute falling off a cliff scene. Stupidest thing I ever saw in a movie.
Well, maybe it wasn’t 45 minutes, but it sure seemed like it.
:-)
You're forgetting the even stupider and longer scene from the same film: the 72-minute Brontosaurus stampede through the canyon, with our heroes dodging the beasts all the while.
Once again, too much self-indulgent CGI, instead of quality content. It happens over and over nowadays. Short-attention-span theater. Look what they've done to the Star Trek franchise. It morphed from character-driven drama into utterly mindless action flicks.
Right, I remember that. The man is highly talented, but he badly needs somebody to ride herd on him. He’s like a talented author who desperately needs a strict editor.
