Hoax of Kong?

Thanks to Jeff for tipping me off to this report on how Peter Jackson’s King Kong remake has allegedly already blossomed into another back-to-back-to-back trilogy project, just like The Lord of the Rings. I suspect this is just one really elaborate April Fool’s Day joke, but even if it is, it’s still quite entertaining.

One thing that does appear to be genuine about the video clip linked at the other site is Peter Jackson’s rather shocking weight loss, accentuated by the fact that he isn’t wearing any glasses. If he really is tackling another instant trilogy, I’d be a wee bit concerned for the effect it may have on his health.
