[@DarkPaladin24]

Honestly, this Kong is my favorite. The story isn't about natives kidnapping a pretty lady to sacrifice her to a giant gorilla. This time, Kong just protects the island along with most creatures and people within. Plus I like that he faces some original creatures and the fight scenes were cool too. And I love how Jen rolled her eyes at the Palm Sunday joke And if you think about it, the grenade suicide worked. It didn't kill the big one, but it did signal Kong

[@tmac731]

Natives kid napping a pretty girl? I view King Kong as white explorers killing the natives and taking something back to show it in America just to kill it

[@ghxstTrap54]

Actually Kong was already there, he was just getting the big boulder, no way kong ran that fast. Kong was close

[@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8]

The creatures aren't really that original. The Skull Crawlers are just redesigns of the pit monster from 1933. The octopus is taken from the 1962 King Kong vs Godzilla. Pterodactyl things that tore the guy apart are essentially the same as in King Kong 2005. The big spider was the most original, that was really creepy and cool to see. King Kong had needed a fun movie like this for a long time

[@madisonwhovian943]

Fun fact: The actor playing Chapman, the soldier who writes letters to his son, is Toby Kebbell. He also played Koba in the recent Planet of the Apes trilogy. He, along with Terry Notary, did the motion capture for Kong in this movie.

[@jacobmcmillan6787]

And Andy serkis who was Caesar did some stuff for Godzilla 2014

[@DavidMartinez-bz5rg]

I love this fact. I knew it before.. I just love it

[@debbee0867]

Yeah, Toby did the facial mo-cap for Kong, and some movement which they changed after Terry did his part, so basically Toby was looking at himself in that scene 🤣 Just watching Toby in another show at the moment 'Servant' which is pretty good, he is a good actor. As a Brit I'm learning more and more of our actors are putting on American accents, I hadn't realised half of them were Brits 😂 think Toby is also in a latter season of another show I'm currently watching 'For all Mankind' around the Nasa programme, he is doing well for himself. I've yet to see Planet of the Apes, I've seen the older films though.

[@anthonyhudak9363]

Fun fact about the skullcrawlers, the director based them off a lot of his love for video games and anime, most prominently Neon Genesis Evangelion, Pokémon, and Metal Gear. However, in the original 1933 King Kong, there's a scene where Kong is looking over a cliffside for a character hiding between rocks, and there's this two-legged iguana looking creature crawling up the cliff so it's crazy that basic design became the template for this movie's main villain monster

Fun fact there is a comic origin story for this Kong and he was born during his parents death his father was fighting a bunch of skull crawlers while his mother was giving birth to him and then his father was killed so his mother hid him in a cave and put a rock infront of it to kinda hide him but there was enough space for Kong to look out and he saw his mother fight and die before his eyes so Kong is a survivor he is sad he also is a protective of humans he cares for them there was a clip of the new movie where Kong looks back and sees a bunch of people in a building screening instead of dodging the attack he stood his ground and tanked through it to avoid those people dying in the monster verse he is like a “human” insertion of sorts he also gives me major god of war kratos vibes

[@BSGNZ]

The thing I loved about this film was the cinematography/camera angles they used. Some of the manical murica F yeah weapon prep and bomb dropping shots were superb, followed by a dark humor backfire. Perfectly personified by the guy strapping up to sacrifice himself, then getting yeeted by "the big one". 🤪🤪

[@76063co2]

I love that your wife is wearing a King Kong (1933) T-shirt, representing the OG classic. That is the original special effects blockbuster and created many of the movie techniques that were used for the next 80 years. Even Lucas said that you don't arrive at Star Wars without King Kong.

[@pablom-f8762]

Apparently Kong also fights a giant spider, but it was deemed "too horrific" for audiences.

[@Blackwing2040]

I gotta say going forward Holden needs to have the drum sound effect every time is said😂. I didn't realize how much less screen time Kong had in this movie. But the brutality of the monsters never fails

[@RageNaught]

The line delivery of “is that a monkey?” Is the best. Like Ramses.

[@diegom4491]

Samuel L Jackson’s character was a representation of war and obsession. He was so obsessed with finishing this battle with Kong that it ended up killing most of his men pointlessly, especially the grenade scene.

[@rhaspodel]

Fun fact: Toby Kebbell portrayed not only Chapman, but as well he portrayed Kong motion captured.

[@dunringill1747]

King Kong (1933) - Respect the OG Son of Kong (1933) - Cash Grab, but Jen would probably fall in love with Baby Kong Mighty Joe Young (1949) - I predict Jen would really love Joe in this family movie

The Disney remake of Mighty Joe Young is WILDLY underrated.

Fun fact: We actually did get to see 2005 Kong fight 1998 Godzilla in the 80th annual academy awards opening! Yes they did super-size kong but ayo it looked rad

[@pyronuke4768]

I think that this is overall the most solid movie in the Monsterverse. It was made back when the films were still relatively grounded and serious, the human cast is pretty likeable, and I feel that we got the right amount of screen time with the monster with him showing up frequently but not so much to desensitize us. But although it's the best imo it's only my second favorite, purely because of my bias for one other film in the series that's coming up.

[@TwistedReality13]

Yea.. before GvK and GxK completely shattered the grounded aspect. 😂

[@cameronwiscovitch4186]

A Few Fun Fact! . Kong: Skull Island originally started out as a follow-up to the Peter Jackson King Kong in 2005 simply called Skull Island, with Adam Wingard helming the project. However, legal disputes between Universal, Warner Bros., and the estate of Merian C. Cooper (the director of the original 1933 King Kong) lead WB obtaining the rights and shift the project to being in the same continuity as their 2014 Godzilla film. Interestingly, Adam Wingard would later direct both Godzilla vs. Kong and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. . Director Jordan Vogt-Roberts actually wanted the Peter Jackson King Kong to appear in this movie, where it would've been killed in the beginning before the real Kong showed up. Legendary didn't like this idea. . Godzilla was meant to have a more direct cameo in the film, but director Jordan Vogt-Roberts vetoed the idea immediately, feeling that a direct appearance of Godzilla would take away from Kong in the film.

[@jerlstrom]

I would recommend watching the Monarch series after Godzilla vs Kong. it gives a little back story to Monarch and Bill Randa

[@Panda_man..]

Yeah they should definitely take a look at that show after.

[@spinosaurusstriker]

Nah, its a waste if time, monarch is barely explored and the monster footage is scarce, most of that show is about family drama, a bad one.

[@jacobmckenzie9182]

As far as I remember, Loki and Carrol Danvers never had any interactions at all on screen. As of course in both Captain Marvel movies Loki is not around.. and during Avengers Infinity War (where "our" Loki died) she was not in there yet. And she hasn't interacted with the Loki from the Loki TV Show either.. so they're one of those interactions that never happened, but it's fun their actors interact here

[@Theeplayboi]

23:47 I thought the same thing when he threw that chain bro thought he was scorpion 💀

[@TriskSilverStream]

Funny that Jen would mention Lost and Jurassic Park. Much of the on location scenes were filmed at the same ranch in Hawaii (Kualoa Ranch). I was lucky enough to visit a few years ago and they still have quite a few of the bones that were practical for us to see and take photos with from the graveyard attack scene.

[@alexput]

One thing i wish they did in kong skull island was have a much larger focus on john C reilley's character as he was the most interesting character and was unfortunately portrayed as the comedic side character. I feel giving him 20mins of the film to him and his struggles on the island. It would make for a better character journey for him and an overall better film in my opinion

[@TwistedReality13]

He really was..

[@amcburger]

“I like it” “yeah looks good” I’m here for it.

[@Tyberos-r3h]

Kong was a juvenile here; that's why in the newest movie, he's much bigger (adulthood). So, it makes sense when fighting the adult Skull Crawler, he's struggling. I mean, adult Kong would have folded it easily since, as an adult, he's actually fighting other titans and has pretty much got it down pat at that point, actually breaking jaws and skulls. Like he's struggling with this main Skull Crawler, which is also a signature move of Kong - grabbing the head & jaw, trying to break them apart. He was still a strong juvenile, even though we haven't seen his parents. I believe he was bigger and much stronger because I believe this crawler is meant to have killed his parents. Now, with him in Hollow Earth, he's tapped into the power it produces too, which will definitely give him an advantage when it comes to combat.

I so love how your dogs were also watching the TV, especially your doggy sitting next to wife, I swear when Kong was pounding his chest, your dog was,..really starring at that, I don't know if he was a little scared, or what,..he just had this look on his face,..these movies have to have the human element, human and Kaiju worlds are intertwined,..Kong has come a long way, started all the way back to 1933, so, even with the Peter Jackson version, which was actually I guess a retelling of the 1933, but of course more updated special effects, better sound, it was quite the endeavor, even when he did it, you know people were like is it gonna be done with care, the original was still a revered iconic movie, and I'm so glad he did it, he did do it with quite meticulous care, as the director did with the 2014 Godzilla, these much revered movie icons, people, fans of DC, Marvel, because of comics, you know were critical, or ready to be critical of any live action movie version, when the first remake of Batman with Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson, came out, even I was like wait a minute, cause I grew up with the series more than the comics, Adam West, Caesar Romero as joker, Frank Gorshin, riddler, Earth Kitt, Julie Newmar, cat woman,..so you know I was ready to bash it, had only seen, or knew of Michael Keaton in Mr. Mom,..comedy, you know, how's he gonna play this deeply dark troubled figure, Nicholson, well knew him from Cukoo's Nest, but still, as a homicidal maniac?(I know The Shinning, but that was a ghost possessed homicidal maniac😉)..Romero played it so well, so I think most of us were like you know totally holding judgment, and boy was I pleasantly pleased, someone called it a casting coup at the time, and indeed it was, I was so pleasantly pleased to see Jack Palance, just was mad about him, and loved that he was in it(Palance also got a little revival, playing villans again also in Tango and Cash, and in the comedy City Slickers with Billy Crystal),..so for us oldsters, these new reincarnations of Godzilla, Kong, Ghidorah, we are very glad, done with great care, artistic care, they've been brought back, the cgi has very much been improved on, but the spirit of them is being well done,..do keep going, welcome to the monsterverse, enjoy,..Godspeed, Peace ✌

Is he ''more aggressive'', or was it because they were dropping bombs on his home, potentially killing his animal friends, rousing the skull crawlers etc...I can see his point of view...

The 1933, 1976 and 2005 versions of Kong are vastly different to the Toho version of Kong who was upscaled in size to go against Godzilla. The Monsterverse version of Kong is basically the Toho version and has little to do with the RKO, Paramount and Jacksons Kong.

An important thing with this movie vs Peter Jackson's King Kong is that this one is titled Kong: Skull Island. I was meant to showcase King Kong, but a fundamental part of the movie was the island itself, which was a step forward into the rest of the Monsterverse lore

[@christophercurtis4131]

I love this movie. I think it is amazing. I love the scene where Mason touches Kong's face. I thought that was a beautiful moment. One thing I loved that the director did is wanting a real camera for Brie Larson's character, not a prop camera. She was actually taking the pictures in the scenes where she uses the camera and developed the pictures herself. I thought that was pretty cool. Kong was absolutely amazing in this film. Thomas Hiddleston and John Goodman were great. And what can I say about Samuel L. Jackson? I did not like his character, but he played the part well. And the Veteran in me always tears up when Marlowe gets home and sees his wife and son. That was beautiful.
