We will disagree on Jack Black,Mick.   I guess he reminded me of many of the producers I've known in my life. I did not think his performance was weak at all, but we all have our own opinions. I respect yours. He is not everyones cup of tea.

As for the person that "did" Kong, it was mostly CGI, but Andy Serkis (who also played Lumpy the Cook)created the movements that the technicians turned into the CGI character (just like he did for Gollum in LOTR).
