33454, no you're missing the point: he's NOT making the movie to promote racism
Posted by 40thStreetBlack, Fri Dec-16-05 05:16 PM
are there racist undertones to King Kong? yes.

is that WHY Peter Jackson remade the movie? no.

is he naive as to the racist undertones the movie? probably.

So if you want to call him a naive white liberal who unconsciously perpetuates racist stereotypes or whatever, fine. But D.W. Griffith he is not.
