The 2005 was ok, and i am sure people will disagree with me. but personally i think they could have cut about 70-80 minutes of the 2005 movie.
That is a slight issue with the 2005 version. I think it could have been cut by 20 minutes, but not more than that.
I like the bloat of the remake, but the main reason I prefer it is the relationship between Naomi Watts and Kong. In the 1933 movie Kong might as well be a robot. Having an actor that is able to portray emotion as Kong adds something that the original was unable to do.
I think the difference is the goal. The 1933 movie is more of a horror movie, whereas the remake is more of an action drama.
