Yes! that is why for the longest time I tought he had done the score. One of my favorite piece is in Central park when Kong is having a skate Ok scene is a bit cheesie but I love it and the musical score on that is amazing.

Yes, that scene and the scene when he's looking at the sunset with her cradled in his hand. Classic!!

yes that is a lso another great scene. The cinematography on this movie is often overlook. Ok it's mostly CGI but they did a heck of a job on it.

the 5 part beauty killed the beast sequence is my favorite (basically the music that starts right after he climbs the empire state)

Yes, that's also one of the highlights.

Never in my life have I wanted to be an ape except when I watched Kong beat the Tyranossaurs. Just so I could stand over them with the score playing in the background. Awsome! lol

Score was very good, easily the b est part of the movie.. The movie itself I didn't like that much aside from Naomi Watts who was great.
