Ready for KING KONG vs GODZILLA?

The Stage Is Set for a King Kong vs. Godzilla Movie Matchup

In a movie move that portends a clash of giant monsters, Legendary Pictures’ Thomas Tull is moving his untitled Skull Island King Kong film to Warner Bros. This is being done to unite the property with Legendary’s other giant franchise, Godzilla. In what would be a pretty epic pairing, the Godzilla sequel that is in the works will be followed by a movie that pits the giant ape versus the giant fire breathing reptile. I’m told this is happening very quickly with moves going all the way to Japan, where Godzilla rights holder Toho is based.

(edited for compliance)

The Kong: Skull Island film is casting quickly. Brie Larson, Tom Hiddleston, and Corey Hawkins are set and last I wrote about it, Samuel L. Jackson was in line to star, with Tom Wilkinson also offered a big role and John C. Reilly atop the list for another main role. Jordan Vogt-Roberts is directing a script by John Gatins and Max Borenstein, and they are eyeing a production start of late year or early 2016. Universal had been set to release the film March 10, 2017, with a Imax 3D a big part of the release plan.

Hmmm. That's like a small monkey fighting a blue whale with legs if you look at the scale of the monsters from both recent films.

Radioactive fire, and the fact that Godzilla is 300 feet tall.

As for the Godzilla sequel, I heard Mothra, Rodan and King Ghidorah will be in it.

That's 1974's Godzilla vs Mecha-Godzilla. I have no idea why Kong's name is on the poster.

Seriously, in the last Godzilla movie he was over 300 feet tall. In the last King Kong movie he was something like 25-30 feet tall.

I have no idea why but it was marketed as "King Kong vs. Godzilla" over here.

That other King Kong vs. Godzilla movie that PurpleJedi posted a picture of was also marketed as "King Kong vs. Godzilla " over here. Confusion!

lol

He didn't get much screen time in the 1954 original, either. But bothare great films. I thought the battle scenes in G-2014 were terrific.

I'm going to save everyone the pain of watching the video below and tell you......

King Kong won. He got knocked out twice but both times woke up just in time to escape death. Godzilla's nuclear fire breath was ineffective on Kong.

Kong dispatched Godzilla, and then swam home.

Are you kidding?????????? That was Godzilla IN NAME ONLY. No true G-fan enjoyed that POS Fakezilla from Tri-Star. Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich totally ruined the character, similar to what Joel Schumacher did to Batman.

Godzilla doesn't run from military fire, lay eggs, or make goo-goo eyes at Matthew Broderick. And NO radioactive fire??? I'll never understand why Toho approved that hot mess.

...and there were never two separate endings. That was an urban legend. Kong wins in the Japanese version. Only difference is you hear Godzilla's roar after Kong's at the end.

I know Godzilla 2014 was a hit but the only time I liked the flick is during the final battle scene...Even critics complained that the Director focused on the humans while the Monsters hung-around like backdrops...So I hope a different director is attached...Godzilla's Fire is not even a discussion-piece becuz he fought many Monsters that had to figure out how to avoid The Heat...We all know King Kong is much faster than the Lizard...Godzilla's weight and that tail slows him down a bit....No matter how you spin it @ the end of the day Godzilla is STILL King of the Monsters...

A different director might not show the same respect for the character. I'm pretty sure G will get more screen time in the sequel, especiallyif those other three kaiju are in it.
