King Kong: Don't Mess With the Monkey
Noodles22 writes "King Kong: Don't Mess With the Monkey began as an audition piece for Eden Phillips. After adapting some scenes from Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh's 1996 King Kong screenplay, the natural appeal of the Kong story attracted more and more enthusiastic volunteers who generously gave of their time to make Kong a rich, funny short film. We are honoured to dedicate it to Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, Wingnut films, and all those involved in the Lord of the Rings films, and upcoming King Kong remake."

The Story
KONG: Don't Mess with the Monkey is essentially a prequel to King Kong the feature film. They year is 1933. A party of three adventurous archaeologists make a first foray into the depths of the previously unexplored Skull Island which, rumour has it, is home to the dreaded great ape known as King Kong.
Our film opens on a youthful and attractive Ann Darrow, an aspiring archaeologist on a Sumatran dig site. She is accompanied by her father, Lord Darrow, a world renowned archaeologist and leader of this first expedition to Skull Island. Walter Douglas, Lord Darrow's assistant, is the reluctant third member of the expedition.Douglas appears to be much more at home in the comfort and safety of the Oxford University Library than out in the field. Our expeditionary team is also supported by two jovial Sumatran natives, Motumbo and Mentawei, who are all too familiar the feared Cult of Kong.
Kong: Don't Mess with the Monkey shows British science's first foray into the mystical and savage world of Skull Island. Our intrepid archeologists are stunned to discover the first evidence confirming rumours of the Kong cult and the ritual sacrifice employed by the natives to appease the beast; they are on the cusp of the archaeological discovery of a lifetime!
Jack Driscoll, an unsavory American entrepreneur, is on Skull Island to fulfill a forestry contract. Driscoll recruits a workforce from the Sumtran natives of the island, and sets to work clearing one hundred thousand acres of rainforest.
Once evidence of the re-emergence of Kong is revealed by our archeologists, the terrified natives abandon their villages and flee to the mountains to escape the return of the Wrath of Kong!
An enraged Driscoll, blaming our archeologists for the loss of his workforce, demands they leave the island within an hour. Driscoll's expulsion threat follows immediately on Ann's unearthing of an ancient map revealing the location of the Sacrificial Site. Legend holds that at this site the great Kong ripped sacrificial victims' flesh to ribbons.
In spite of Lord Darrow's stern protestations, Ann shows herself unable to resist the discovery of a lifetime when she compels an unwilling Douglas to join her desperate search for the Sacrificial Site. The clock is ticking on Driscoll's threat - but a mysterious roaring emanating from the jungle presents a far, far greater one...

I ran a benchmark on my quantum computer, now I can't find it anywhere!
It should be noted that these are the same people who did Fanimatrix.
The DVD for Finding Nemo has some interesting extras. One of them is with one of the directors (or someone in charge). He talks about how they went scuba diving and took video. They then gave the video to their CG people who recreated a scene from underwater looking to the water's surface. When played side-by-side, it was hard to tell the two apart, and so they had to work on making it believable that it could exist, while also making it obviously not real.
I also recall something along the same lines with the princess in Shrek, they made her too realistic, and then had to make her more "fake".
But, it really depends on what you're animating, though. I saw the Final Fantasy movie that was supposed to look all real, and it was good animation, but just "not right."
Withdrawal before climax is very ineffective and those who try this are usually called "parents."
Hmm, looks like no one has a sense of humor... or at least is in need of a history lesson:
Nintendo was originally sued by Universal over "Donkey Kong" and it's similarities to "King Kong" in both plot and name. However, Nintendo later discovered that Universal never actually owned the rights to "King Kong" to begin with, thus invalidating the suit.
