Originally aired on April 20, 2014. Re-edited for KZbin.
Season 7 has finally arrived! To start things off, I take a glimpse at possibly the most atrocious animated musical adaptation starring the 8th Wonder of the World himself: The Mighty Kong.

If I were to remake or reanimate this Kong film, I would avoid the choices it one made. I would keep the same characters, but not make them look like complete idiots. Removing the monkey sidekick. Removing the musical parts. Making the tone more mature. Animating the scenes closer to the original. And have Kong actually die like in the original film and remakes. (Except skull island since Kong lived)

[@StarFoxPlanet2018]

This is how I Will Remake King kong Into Animated Movie. 1.I will keep the Same Characters But not make Them Complete Idiots Removeing the Monkey Sidekick. 2.Remove The Annoying Musical 3.Make The Tone More Darker and More Violent And Give This Movie R rated. 4.Animating The Movie Much Better And More Respectfull to the Original Source Film. 5.Making the Natives More Terrifying. 6.And Actually Have King Kong Die Just like in the Original Film

I noticed something interesting during the song that Denham sings in the restaurant. The lyrics, “It’s got laughter, it’s got tears, mystery and fear,” are very similar to some of the lyrics of “It’s a Small World”; all they had to do was switch out the “mystery” part with “hopes”.

You wanna know how the songs in this movie could have worked, aside from progressing the story forward and at least sounding nice to listen to? If they were written by Stephen Schwartz. Look at the Prince of Egypt for example. That is one of the greatest animated musicals of all time, and yet, it's barely talked about. The songs in that film were dark, somber, and powerful, but sometimes charming and catchy to listen to. They helped tell the story for us and had a purpose. In fact, some songs from some mediocre musical out there could have been good if he wrote them. The stories would be the same, but the songs would have at least been nice to listen to and helped tell their stories forward. Don Bluth's Thumbelina: Stephen Schwartz. The Lion King: Stephen Schwartz. Hercules and Xena: Battle of Mt. Olympus: Stephen Schwartz. All of the Land Before Time sequels: Stephen Schwartz. The Mighty Kong: Stephen Schwartz! Awesome review by the way.
