"Stick to tongue wrestling, T Rexes and Snakes. You're such a joke, Jack Black's in your remakes." Ouch. Given that Jack Black usually does comedy, combined with Godzilla calling King Kong a joke, that line especially hurt. Btw, props to the animation from ERB. They did a good job on this one.

"worst kaiju comeback since pacific rim 2" and "saddest death of a gorilla since harambe" were both incredible edit: just noticed kong's "ass-brain" line. great reference to the heisei films. (in 1993 mechagodzilla took down godzilla by taking down a second brain he had in his hips. he had this because decades ago, stegosaurus (one of the dinosaurs godzilla was originally based on) was thought to have a second brain in it's hips because the brain in the skull was absolutely tiny).

It's also a play off of King Kongs O² line, he talks about oxygen and then godzilla rebukes with Iron and Thor(ium), just a little kind of playoff of Kong which is just clever writing, the double and triple entendres in this battle is crazy!

KZbinr Danny Sapko tried to recreate the sound but he didn't get the right sound at all.

[@MaliciousCat]

The 'Lizzie' part. Is a reference to the Rampage series. Where 'Godzilla' is actually a woman who can transform into the monster. I think they called the 'King Kong' character George in that series. A man that can transform into Kong. Later, they made a giant Werewolf character in the series too. His name was Ralph.

[@despinasgarden.4100]

Aren't thet mutated animals? I saw the movie "Rampage" and Lizzie, Ralph and George were mutated animals, not people that could turn into monsters.

[@MaliciousCat]

@@despinasgarden.4100 No, man. That's my point. Have you ever played Rampage the Nintendo game when you were a kid? In the lore of the series. Ralph, Lizzie and George were human beings. That can TRANSFORM... into large HUMANOID monsters. Not animals that mutate into animalistic monsters. So, if your not old enough to have gotten the chance to play Rampage the Nintendo game, in the game you play as either this lady that transforms into Godzilla, or a man that can transform into King Kong, and you can beat down buildings or eat people, right. But if your HP goes down a certain level. You shrink down into a human and you can get killed in one hit. That's the game lore. I'm saying the movie, like all Video game to Movies, changed the lore.

[@kamig2127]

Yeah Kong is basically calling Godzilla a little girl lmao

[@taloutezero]

I don't want to look this up because its just information I believe I heard somewhere but does the "recycled crap" line refer to Godzillas breath attack being his waste that he's spewing out? I think I learned this somewhere a long time ago but I may be wrong. Also, does it refer to a movie or show that took clips/shots or storylines from other projects before it and just shoved them in?

I’ve been following this series since Bieber Vs Beethoven back in 2011, Peter and Lloyd are iconic early KZbin legends and they always will be. My favorite thing about these videos is their ability to make me interested in character/real figures I knew little about or hardly cared about at all beforehand, via the magic of words and sick beats. Tons of fans have created their own inspired rap battle videos over the years, some have impressed me surely, but in my opinion there is no candle to be held against ERB’s heartfelt works of art. 88 down now, hope they make it to at least 100, regardless of when they hang up the mics for good, I’ve enjoyed nearly every lyrical spar they’ve given us.

[@Laiser]

Took me way too long to realize "I'll make an ass out of you like Nintendo did" is because ass is another word for donkey, and Nintendo made Donkey Kong.

[@drpopandfizz]

this line has different meanings. the way you just said Nintendo won a lawsuit from Universal Studios (who owns King Kong) over Donkey Kong, saying DK was copyright infringement, and the lawsuit made universal look bad.

[@JoEbY-X]

When Donkey Kong first came out in the early 1980's, we all thought the Japanese creators had just made a mistake, and that they meant "Monkey Kong" without realizing that gorillas are not monkeys. Turns out it was likely more linguistically interesting than that. A theory is that they took "King Kong" to mean a "Kong" that is supreme, superior, foremost, prime, etc. So what's the opposite? A "Kong" that is a jerk, dunce, fool, idiot, imbecile, or... a jackass. Somehow the Japanese word equivalent to "jackass" was translated to "donkey" and the rest is history.

[@MIKIMAHI_Ltd.]

@@JoEbY-X So that explains DK being a jerk sometimes. Or most.

[@Ladondorf]

@@JoEbY-X "Donkey" _is_ an English synonym for "fool", just not a very common one. Myamoto, being Japanese, obviously had no point of reference for how often it is used. He saw it listed in the dictionary among other synonyms for "fool" and had no reason to believe it would confuse people.

[@takodacorliss5838]

I can’t believe no one pointed out the double meaning behind the Donkey Kong joke, so I’m going to do it myself. So on top of Godzilla calling King Kong an ass, Nintendo literally made an ass of King Kong and Universal in 1983 because Universal lost a lawsuit with Nintendo over Donkey Kong, which actually ended up putting King Kong into the Public Domain. So not only is it a reference to how Donkey is another term for ass, but it’s also referencing how Universal lost a Lawsuit to Nintendo in 1983. Easily one of the coolest references I’ve seen in a rap battle to date. Actual peak!

[@Stofferex]

Well King Kong being public domain is actually a bit shaky. Basically, before the 1933 movie, there was a novel written of the movie a year prior, 1932. That novel is now in public domain simply cause… no one bothered to renew it. So you can teeeeechnically use King Kong through the novel… but it’s still extremely risky and shaky However, in 2029 it will get easier, cause then the 1933 movie will enter public domain too
