This scene alone proves we can have a Monsterverse movie WITHOUT the humans and still have our Monsters convey emotions and such without any human intervention
Kong seems to be pretty calm. He didnt want to hurt SK over a little taunt, his plans might have been to be polite and not hurt his own kind. See how Kong instantly changed his mind ones SK pushed one in the fire. Thats why Kong is the rightfull king
@@FarradMuseumofTruthu must be a scary mf in real life cuz Kong looked like he was more focused than scarred this whole scene when tf have u ever seen king scared? Mfs wasn’t even scared of GODZILLA why would he fear one of his kind?? dude jumped down there and instantly started running shit😂😂😂
I love how Kong only starts to get angry when SK messes with Suko, and his friend getting pushed into the lava was the point where Kong decided, “Alright, he’s going down”
As someone who is in school for audio. The monster verse movies have an absolutely phenomenal sound design. Especially when it comes to the roars/monster sounds. I would definitely love to work on one of these movies or something similar in the future :)
1:30 I remember seeing the Skar King pointing and laughing at Kong image on Twitter as a meme and immediately thought it was fake. My reaction to actually seeing it happen in theaters was amazing lmao
Honestly I love Skar King's characterization. A mean, spiteful bully who relies on his influence to be a genuine threat. He has "playground bully" vibes in this scene.
Backlit silhouette, close up Kubrick stare, extreme low angle camera shot onto a condescending body pose and merciless introduction mvrder. And critics say this movie sucks?
yeah I wished they made him actually try to fight in the final battle, the writers only made him run around and laugh (kong literally jumped ready to punch and skar king just stood there)
I love the dominance Kong asserts in this scene. He's standing in the middle of a massive tribe of apes who previously showed themselves to be hostile and is face to face with their leader that has clear ill intent, and he remains completely chill and unphased. When the Skar King pushes one of the apes into the fire, Kong doesn't hesitate for a second to challenge him.
@@merajsupercluster9015 What does this even mean ? You do know disney had some villians just as mean or bully-ish like Scar King here right ? Lmao ironically Scar himself was just like this which I wouldn't be shocked this character was kinda based on if so
2:04 the way Skar King smiles just before he kills Suko’s caretaker, you can tell he did that just to provoke Kong. And to Kong, Suko’s grief reminded him of his trauma of losing his parents when he was a child
Bro invented giant monster *slavery* on *his own species/subspecies* r@!ped said slaves to make more, to use as canon fodder against Godzilla, basically took Shimoe who is technically a big lizard dog that help Godzilla freeze Ghidorah, beat her, broke her will and mind, and turned her into a weapon against Godzilla, and kicked Suko's mom(?) into lava just to piss off Kong. BRO IS A CERTIFIED *MENACE* WITH *NO* REDEEMING QUALITIES!!! You KNOW I was shouting with joy when Kong nocked his tooth out! Chuckle now ya orange b¡tch!!!
Yeah I also never understood the complain about Skar king not being extremely powerful villain. I mena we already have had an incredibly powerful villian in Ghidorah. Nothing was gonna top that. Skar King was a very different type of villian, a cunning, cowardly, tyrannical, gangster like, but also very expressive & entertaining as hell. With Shimo already in the movie, skar king is exactly the type of villain that was needed.
What was really funny is when Scar made his intro and all the other apes fell down in fear….Kong was looking around like…. Da Fuc@ wrong with y’all! I’m about to square up with that Bitc@!!
@sakumon16 Yes to both of these comments. Scar King ruled by fear and abuse. The apes were broken willed and slaves from birth. But the entrance of attempted intimidation contrasted with Kong Standing there like "who is this scrawny fuck" is badass for sure. Lol
0:36 I love how it looks like Skar's wearing an ammo belt around him when you first see him or if you see him from far away, and then you look closer and realize it's a spine, when he first comes out of his throne room he looks like an old skinny, depraved war veteran and it looks SICK
Watching it through, it tells everything about him: It's a spinal column, so it's his way of overtly showing his clan that he has the spine to lead. Yet, he wields it like a whip, as one would to keep the unruly in line, and as a long distance weapon (afraid to get up close and personal with direct conflict).
I was initially skeptical of Skar King, but the moment at the 1:30 mark convinced me otherwise. Despite not being as formidable as King Ghidorah or Mechagodzilla, Skar King's unique personality won me over.
I agree. I really enjoyed the way Skar King clearly took pleasure in what he did, like that little smirk he flashes to Kong just before kicking Suko's caretaker into the lava. That self-awareness made him feel just a little bit more real.
Kong has spent the vast majority of his life searching for and HOPING that there were others like him somewhere that he would find one day: So seeing Skar King just so nonchalantly kill off a member of his own kind right in front of him was enough to set him off. Especially when you think about how Suko’s cries at watching his guardian die probably triggered Kong’s first memories of when the Skullcrawlers killed his parents after his birth.
Really like Kong's roar at 2:17. One of the more raw and intense roars of his. He wasnt gonna let Skar King slide with that. This motherfucker is going down
I do love how they introduce him, since it shows that he's a ruler with an iron fist and is a serious threat to reckon with how evil he is. Plus I did like how they remind us of like with Peter Jackson's King Kong, that non-human primates can laugh too.
The villainous swag Skar King had in his manniserms were too much. The swaying shoulders, the condescending, "who tf you think you are?" Look. S-tier entrance
Cuz he straightened his back out like he knew he owned that bitch. He has thr swag of confidence, even if maybe slightly misplaced or over confident. He shows dominance in his poses and entrance
No joke that roar at 00:26 was not only loud but I felt it reverberate throughout my body and gave me literal chills when I saw this in theaters for the first time. One of the best monster introductions of all times in the monsterverse
I love that Kong is finally getting his own villains to keep, but I also would love to see a return of Robo-Kong from King Kong Escapes. It be cool to see those two reunited
The fact that every single Ape Titan there is at least 250ft-300ft gives a real idea on just how MASSIVE everything there is. That "little rock" that the ape who was push knocked aside, would be the size of a whole building.
That’s what I don’t like about it. I’m not saying a kaiju has to be placed next to human infrastructure, but the hollow earth is just “giant nature”. It kind of undermines how even within nature these beasts would look like massive entities
0:19 Sitting pose was too clean. 0:46 Standing pose too clean. 1:27 The pose after checking Kong's teeth too clean. 1:44 The way it approached the monkey too clean as well. Nice intro for a villain.😂
I think the cool touch was that the Skar King had throne guards. And when he made his entrance he was walking behind them before they made their split and kicked the smaller ape to the side. My favorite part there.
Such a great villain. He doesn't need to be powerful or strong to be such a threat. His cruelty and brain are what make him a villain that Godzilla, Kong and Mothra can fight only together.
What makes him even more terrifying is that he’s prety much a decrepite old man. The dude started the war between his species and the Gojiras as well as the ice age. Just imagne what he was capable off back when he was build like Kong.
@@florians9949 And the guy is probably the most relatable villain cause he evokes everything bad about us humans and our weaknesses. He's a dictator and like all dictators, they're powerful because they have armies, weapons and are cunning but once their empire falls or they no longer have followers, they are nothing but a single individual who can be beaten easily by possible brute force alone. It's the same strength and weakness humans as a whole have. Take away all our technology and most animal species beat us in fights.
@@florians9949 Exactly, the guy is also possibly the most relatable villain to us humans since he embodies all the strengths and weaknesses of humans. Strong with armies, weapons and intelligence But weak in terms of physical strength and durability and take away his armies and weapons, the guy isn't much. Same logic applies to any human, a human can hunt and end a grizzly bear with weapons But put that same human (with no weapons) against a grizzly in a fair 1v1. We all know what will happen.
Skarr king had like a anime villain vibe to him with the swag in his stance n walk n the “lazy” like stance n acrobatic fighting style. Like light yagami type stance but also the vibe of the red hair kid from assassination classroom (I forgot his name) but u can tell he had swag to em
Skar King was SUCH a great villain monster! Malicious, a little unhinged, egotistical, tyrannical, a slave driver, megalomaniacal (which is really saying something for a Titan!), and so many things that we classify as "evil"! I mean, he was about to hurt and possibly kill Suko, when another ape intervened. But Skar still wanted SOMEONE to pay for bringing Kong, an outsider, so he killed Suko's friend, provoking Kong's rage.
You can see how peaceful was Kong in this movie he even lets SK disrespect him at first if that means no more fight, he had the hope to just be one more of his kind until he saw the true intentions of SK
Skar is such a great villian alongside King Ghidorah! Skar is emotive and expressive by his body language and roars and grunts as hes the kinda ape u dont wanna screw with as hes confirmed to be thousands of years old and has probably fought alot of past kaijus bigger then he is. Seriously when hes on screen u feel his impact as hes ruthless and rules like a tyrant and will not hesitate to kill anyone trying to oppose him in his kingdom. I wanna know who played him in his motion capture as that man deserves an award! And Kong here sees this red ape as a bully and a true psychopath. He sees the others around him bow down in fear and not respect but for thier lives. Kong is the opposite of Skar for sure as he shows compassion for others and respect as he helped that one ape up after the other whipped him ferociously. This proves to me that Adam Wingard understands these monsters and thier personalities.
Menacing would be putting it lightly. It’s like the Devil himself is here in ape form. When you think about it, they’re in Hell, or the MonsterVerse’s version of it.
@@sakumon16 I honstly its like a biblical reference as well. Notice how Godzilla threw Skar King to "Hell"? Like a painting of St Michale the Archangle defeat satan that locked away to hell. Or maybe God banish Lucifer to the deeps of hell.
@Renkencen I guess he less concerned with the replacement and more "Oh you lost a tooth? You must've lost a fight! Hahaha everyone laugh at the weakling loser!"
@@Renkencen i guess he was mocking Kong for letting the humans help him with the tooth. At this point Skar King already know about humans and maybe the bond with Kong too
@@MaceDeMarco2010nah cuz in the previous, they showed the trees and terrain as their normal size..which made the other kaijus look huge..in this movie they changed the entire perspective…they showed the trees and terrain to be small..which ngl made it look like grass
@@greenspace741 this is still their home. If things were huge, naturally, caverns (that they already established Skar King was renovating) would be *huger.*
the directors intentionally did that the whole movie is supposed to be from kongs perspective he doesnt see the other titans as giants thus making it look like another planet of the apes with magical weapons
Skar king: you. You suposed to kill him not bring him here... Oldmonkeh: Forgive him, sire. The entire guard you send to explore wasnt uneable to do so. You ask to much for the little one... SK: Very well... I hope you understand what your prescence ignites... (Kick him to lava) Zuko: No, please no. Nooooo... Kong: I defy you... Sk: Challenge accepted.
Gnarled finger literally begged skar king not to hurt the boy and Skar literally took offense to that and killed him right in front of kong to piss him off What a fuckin menace
I feel like this is what's happening @ 2:01: Star King: So... You think you're a hero, huh? Kong: What do you mean...? Star King: HERE'S THE PRICE FOR IT! **kick**
The emotions and graphics is really really good, excellent work. This version Kong is the best I would like to include Godzilla as well great job I mean wow!!! spectacular
They made the kaiju more human like in this movie than any other, tight! And the way Skar king stood on that ledge, arms hanging down, head tilted, was so cool
Can someone explain to me how a 2 and a half minute long clip with no dialogue has better characterization and emotion than the entire 1 hour and 58 minutes of The Lion King remake?!
I think having a genuinely passionate director helps with that. From what I've seen and heard, Adam Wingard genuinely loves working on these movies and wants to make something that people will have fun with. He's not just in it for the money.
I really love the music at 0:31 just as we see the introduction to Skar King. I love when films do that, whenever they show a villain for the first time, the music is always very dramatic and intense.
Well, they are apes, and Kong was giving Skar the benefit of the doubt. Once he started laughing (which by the way is the most brutish evil laugh ever) he established himself as a villain.
Pretty interesting honestly, it is quite traditional for the franchise to mix different animals into one kaiju, like Godzilla is a tyranosaurus and stegosaurus mixture and Kong is kind of like a gorilla and a chimp
the way skar king came in, he is such a damn villain. not gonna lie, dude was really really a bad ass. One of the best and enjoyable godzilla movies. and maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, this version of godzilla is a true, trueeeeeee monster
1:56 Fun fact! You can see Kong about to grab his axe! He's being very cautious of what Scar King can do! I really love details like this in movies! It shows you the RAW emotion through these characters, and they delivered! Good work to the GxK team who made this movie happen!
I love how despite obviously being nowhere near Kong in terms of raw strength, he's by NO means a weak or incompetent opponent. His highly acrobatic fighting style and sheer cunning allow him to face Kong on a fairly even level and the skill he has with his whip is nothing to scoff at. Honestly If Godzilla hadn't supercharged himself prior I genuinely believe SK could given him a decent fight before ultimately getting atomized.
Kong just got one hit in and I honestly think eventually skar king could have won but would have been badly injured so that's probably why he used shimo
Skar King being a cruel dictator is fascinating because I have read somewhere that occassionally chimpanzee can be observed doing this too in real life and Skar King is giant red chimpanzee
This scene... this scene right here... This is how you give a kaiju character. In just 5 minutes (I'm also referencing the fight after this and the sequences before), we get everything that we need to know about Skar King, who he is, and why we should fear him. And I love it so much
Kongs journey in this movie with Suko is handled so well. Not a single line of dialogue is spoken but you know everything that’s being said through gestures and grunts and roars. Hats off to wingard, can’t wait for gxk 3!
Hopefully it's more Godzilla focused this time. I'm sure a similar treatment could potentially work, he may be a reptile but that doesn't mean he can't emote 😂
the Skar King is an evil psychopath but you got to admit his entrance was badass. He’s easily become my favourite Monsterverse villain yet to date. Edit: and I have to admit that stance he made at 1:54 is actually terrifying.
Skar King: “thought you’d be bigger…but you’re *definitely* the one…long way from home aren’t you…?”
Hahahaah, good reference, mate.
The interaction between Skar King and Kong definitely reminds me of Kratos's first encounter with Baldr in GoW.
Damn, that's line goes hard fr
A good chuck of this movie basically is GoW, Suko and Kong holding the axe the most dead giveaway 😂
Skar King after being frozen: “Snow…”
They honestly look similar
This scene alone proves we can have a Monsterverse movie WITHOUT the humans and still have our Monsters convey emotions and such without any human intervention
Yeah, a large chunk of the novelisation is narrated by the Titans instead of the humans
@@sakumon16 wow really which one

Agreed, this whole scene is basically a planet of the apes scene but they're all the size of a skyscraper
Even the lil one big ahh ish when they cross over to solid earth running around in the last scene
Apparently Suko is the size that kong was in 2017, yes Kong grew that much blew my mind when someone told me. @@joehardy5537
That’s what I don’t like about it. I’m not saying a kaiju has to be placed next to human infrastructure, but the hollow earth is just “giant nature”. It kind of undermines how even within nature these beasts would look like massive entities
Average ultraman movie 🤣
Its really easy to forget that these guys are the size of skyscrapers.
Yeah. Although Kongs biggest.
@@sakumon16 there will always bigger fish
indeed
I know right? I forgot how massive these Kaiju were until the Brazil fight
I read somewhere that Kong is 103M tall while Skar King is 97M
The Skar King ruled with fear. Kong shall rule with respect.
0:19 Sitting pose was too clean.
0:46 Standing pose too clean.
1:27 The pose after checking Kong's teeth too clean.
1:44 The way it approached the monkey too clean as well.
Nice intro for a villain.😂
It was so cool! I wish they gave him more power in the movie if that makes sense😢
Lovin' the attitude behind every pose😂😂😂
Yesss broo. And also the smile he does when he chokes kong, and also when he wraps his belt thingy around kong's arm then cuts him.
Homie just radiates anime villain energy 😂😂😂
2:17 I think that's the most pissed kong roar I've heard.
Yeah
Kong: Even the Skullcrawlers that I killed won't go that far.
Nah his most angry one was when those soldiers pointed guns at Jia
Bro kong was pissed as soon as skar king killed the ape and also what a badass roar 2:12
Suko's cries probably reminded Kong of when he lost his parents. What's worse was Kong was just a newborn when it happened.
@@grizzakaful indeed
To be fair grizza i can as agree with you on that one
I think the cool touch was that the Skar King had throne guards. And when he made his entrance he was walking behind them before they made their split and kicked the smaller ape to the side. My favorite part there.
0:42 Background music made this scene all the more better
Love the shot around 1:00 with Kong standing strong while the rest cower.
Course he is, bros always 10 toes at ALL times
Kong bows 2 know one
Kong more interested in making he's only point. He is da king. Sure as hell stands like it and acts like it
200th like
@@overtherainbow7972 He raised himself, didn't he, more or less. He's not gonna be afraid of anything after that difficult of a life.
1:30 “haha bro thinks he’s him.”

Skar king and Kongs are laughing at King Kong 1:30
That comment had me dying😂😂😂
Kong later in the movie: “I AM HIM.”
😂😂😂😂😂
0:25 Those eyes🥶
0:01 nice roar
Such a great villain. He doesn't need to be powerful or strong to be such a threat. His cruelty and brain are what make him a villain that Godzilla, Kong and Mothra can fight only together.
What makes him even more terrifying is that he’s prety much a decrepite old man. The dude started the war between his species and the Gojiras as well as the ice age. Just imagne what he was capable off back when he was build like Kong.
And agility. One of the most agile titans I’ve ever seen.
@@florians9949 And the guy is probably the most relatable villain cause he evokes everything bad about us humans and our weaknesses. He's a dictator and like all dictators, they're powerful because they have armies, weapons and are cunning but once their empire falls or they no longer have followers, they are nothing but a single individual who can be beaten easily by possible brute force alone.
It's the same strength and weakness humans as a whole have. Take away all our technology and most animal species beat us in fights.
@@florians9949 Exactly, the guy is also possibly the most relatable villain to us humans since he embodies all the strengths and weaknesses of humans.
Strong with armies, weapons and intelligence
But weak in terms of physical strength and durability and take away his armies and weapons, the guy isn't much.
Same logic applies to any human, a human can hunt and end a grizzly bear with weapons
But put that same human (with no weapons) against a grizzly in a fair 1v1. We all know what will happen.
@@Kaiju-bm4ts not exactly my point but the same train of thoughts. After all a 30 years old man with a soear is far more deadly than if he was 80.
1:39 look at Kong sulking in the background
I think you mean look at A Kong
That’s a Kratos face
*sad SpongeBob music*
Skarr king had like a anime villain vibe to him with the swag in his stance n walk n the “lazy” like stance n acrobatic fighting style. Like light yagami type stance but also the vibe of the red hair kid from assassination classroom (I forgot his name) but u can tell he had swag to em
Him going from a serious stance and then starting to laugh reminded me of Yujiro Hanma, also due to his red fur.
Man that roar before the slow stroll to the ledge and that stand and stare...what an intro
Skar King was SUCH a great villain monster! Malicious, a little unhinged, egotistical, tyrannical, a slave driver, megalomaniacal (which is really saying something for a Titan!), and so many things that we classify as "evil"! I mean, he was about to hurt and possibly kill Suko, when another ape intervened. But Skar still wanted SOMEONE to pay for bringing Kong, an outsider, so he killed Suko's friend, provoking Kong's rage.
I like Suko’s “aæh” roar, and the fact that Skar King stands lazily like he don’t give a crap about anything anymore.
One of the extra nasty things about Skar is that Suko is his son. And he treats Suko like rubbish.
@@sakumon16wait really it didn’t day that in the movie?
@@haileyhai5436It’s implied in the scene you can see Skar King had a group of female Kongs behind him all holding babies the same color as Suko.
@@sakumon16 Scar King is just like evil human kings. He doesnt care about any of his numerous kids and treats them badly
The director said Skar King represents all the bad qualities of humanity while Kong represents the good
You can see how peaceful was Kong in this movie he even lets SK disrespect him at first if that means no more fight, he had the hope to just be one more of his kind until he saw the true intentions of SK
Skar is such a great villian alongside King Ghidorah! Skar is emotive and expressive by his body language and roars and grunts as hes the kinda ape u dont wanna screw with as hes confirmed to be thousands of years old and has probably fought alot of past kaijus bigger then he is. Seriously when hes on screen u feel his impact as hes ruthless and rules like a tyrant and will not hesitate to kill anyone trying to oppose him in his kingdom. I wanna know who played him in his motion capture as that man deserves an award!
And Kong here sees this red ape as a bully and a true psychopath. He sees the others around him bow down in fear and not respect but for thier lives. Kong is the opposite of Skar for sure as he shows compassion for others and respect as he helped that one ape up after the other whipped him ferociously. This proves to me that Adam Wingard understands these monsters and thier personalities.
0:45 I love his bad posture stance here like he owns the place
Such a badass
Cause he do
@@bryanlace8302 haha that’s true. That underworld was brutal
technically, he does own the place
@@bryanlace8302until Kong 🤣
0:32 That introduction was menacing
Menacing would be putting it lightly. It’s like the Devil himself is here in ape form. When you think about it, they’re in Hell, or the MonsterVerse’s version of it.
@@sakumon16 I honstly its like a biblical reference as well. Notice how Godzilla threw Skar King to "Hell"? Like a painting of St Michale the Archangle defeat satan that locked away to hell. Or maybe God banish Lucifer to the deeps of hell.
I love how skar king was made to look like an orangutan as opposed to Kong looking like a gorilla
The way he walks out n proceeds to jump while also laughing at kong is so badass
1:11
Kong bows to no one.
ThE wOrLd NeEdS kOnG!!!
This is from any alpha, but the truth is that Kong is not just any titan
@@kailanerman5090WE NEED KONG😊🙌🌞🦍
@@To.me.my.X-Men.97 THE WORLD NEEDZ HIM 🐒🦍🍌🌎

1:30 Skar King laughing at Kong’s metal tooth
Don't get what so funny about it? Like what? Skar King "Awh he lost a tooth and have to put a metal rock in its place??"
@Renkencen I guess he less concerned with the replacement and more "Oh you lost a tooth? You must've lost a fight! Hahaha everyone laugh at the weakling loser!"
@@Renkencen i guess he was mocking Kong for letting the humans help him with the tooth. At this point Skar King already know about humans and maybe the bond with Kong too
Im you 100th like
2:08😱😿
I love how they are supposed to be 300-400 meters tall but from this perspective they just look normal sized
Yeah? Cause this is their home?
@@MaceDeMarco2010nah cuz in the previous, they showed the trees and terrain as their normal size..which made the other kaijus look huge..in this movie they changed the entire perspective…they showed the trees and terrain to be small..which ngl made it look like grass
@@greenspace741 this is still their home. If things were huge, naturally, caverns (that they already established Skar King was renovating) would be *huger.*
the directors intentionally did that the whole movie is supposed to be from kongs perspective he doesnt see the other titans as giants thus making it look like another planet of the apes with magical weapons
Nah, they're supposed to be more or less just a 100 meters but i get your point either way.
1:36
Poor Suko. That’s the kind of laugh you give when you don’t want your dad to hit you.
i swear, Skar King's roar feels a lot less intimidating on here than in the theater, idk why
Theater is WAY louder thats why. Audio sounds slightly lower pitched as well.
The bass in the theater made it shake my body
Sounds like Kong roaring into a fan
I watched it in immersive x theater and it had tons of bass in it
Probably because you’re watching it outside the high-volume theatre.
0:10
One Eye:"My Lieg-"
Guard:"Stand Back!"
One Eye:"My Liege! Another one...Like us! He defies us!"
Skar King:"The last mistake he will ever make."
Skar king: you. You suposed to kill him not bring him here...
Oldmonkeh: Forgive him, sire. The entire guard you send to explore wasnt uneable to do so. You ask to much for the little one...
SK: Very well... I hope you understand what your prescence ignites... (Kick him to lava)

Kong: I defy you...
Sk: Challenge accepted.
62 likes and no comments? Lemme change that
336 likes and only one comment? Let’s change that
0:26 Skar king, “Who dares challenges me?”
Suko, “What have you done?!”
In fact, I think One-eye had already warned Skar King about Kong before, after running away from him at the beginning.
Gnarled finger literally begged skar king not to hurt the boy and Skar literally took offense to that and killed him right in front of kong to piss him off
What a fuckin menace
I feel like this is what's happening @ 2:01:
Star King: So... You think you're a hero, huh?
Kong: What do you mean...?
Star King: HERE'S THE PRICE FOR IT! **kick**
1:33
Skar King: “this guy thought he was gonna get an end credits scene”
Was almost gonna say he did in skull island but then again, that end credit scene wasn’t even about him.
Kong has got so much personality, you just can't help but cheer for him. This character development has truly been remarkable.
The emotions and graphics is really really good, excellent work. This version Kong is the best I would like to include Godzilla as well great job I mean wow!!! spectacular
Skar King only uses fear and a crystal to control a gentle monster, a true coward.
Suko being like "Oh, No! Now you've done it, Kong!" Was too funny.
He was like "I'm cooked"🫣
2:17 nah kong was like “OH NOW YOUVE DONE IT BUD”
Oh you mean Diddy Kong.
Skar King was just pure evil. A sadistic monster. Kong knew he was extremely dangerous the second he saw him. And he needed to stop him.
0:58 what i always do for no reason when i almost reach the bottom of the stiars in the house
Nah that's, me in high school.
They made the kaiju more human like in this movie than any other, tight! And the way Skar king stood on that ledge, arms hanging down, head tilted, was so cool
Can someone explain to me how a 2 and a half minute long clip with no dialogue has better characterization and emotion than the entire 1 hour and 58 minutes of The Lion King remake?!
I think having a genuinely passionate director helps with that. From what I've seen and heard, Adam Wingard genuinely loves working on these movies and wants to make something that people will have fun with. He's not just in it for the money.
An application of animation principles and a commitment to telling a story through expression and gesture ONLY.
@@IanPendleton-gh6oxthat’s a good note
That's what I want to do one when I make my four film and TV SERIES crossover saga one day on the big screen and TV screen
@@mariolaudato8019 Good luck with that.

Yeah, for tyranny and mocking.

@@chito2701 Imagine Kong and the other great apes getting exposed to the simian flu and becoming hyper-intelligent.
“ARE WE THANKFUL FOR CAESAR’S WORDS?!”
@@Jie_Hua "WE ARE THANKFUL!"
I really love the music at 0:31 just as we see the introduction to Skar King. I love when films do that, whenever they show a villain for the first time, the music is always very dramatic and intense.
2:17
Kong: YOU'RE MESSED UP SKAR!
Skar King: ITS SKAR *_KING,_* CHIMP!
Skar King has the best villain introduction in the Monsterverse
One of the finer ones. Although I did like Ghidorah’s entrance.
Facts! Best part of the movie imo
@@sakumon16 both were strong in their own way, Ghidorha had intimidation and power, scar king had menacing charisma.
@@sakumon16So true. It's like they awoken an unholy monster that was banished by God for a good reason.
@@justadogobeingdogo5766 a very accurate description.
This is literally Planet of the apes except that the apes are the size of buildings and harness the power of an enormous ice lizard
Come to think of it, there have been a lot of ape related movies recently.
@@CB-eo6xo return to monke
That's what i thought too Kong vs Skar king reminds me so much of Caesar vs Koba
@@CB-eo6xo😂😂😂 FACTS
Since there's no human in there, I keep forgetting these guys are size of the 20 story building and not just normal size apes. 😂
Skar King: “I’ve got a tip for ya…. don’t let no one get this close….”
The Skar King’s character was shown in that one pose: menacing, dangerous, psychotic and drunk off the power he wields
1:10 the music is what makes this standoff feel so powerful. Two kings toe to toe at one another
1:24 I think it’s kinda funny how Kong let Skar king put his finger in his mouth.
He's surrounded by an army of apes.
Bc he was trying to show him “yeah do it idgaf”
it's something animals would do.
What do you mean by that?
Well, they are apes, and Kong was giving Skar the benefit of the doubt. Once he started laughing (which by the way is the most brutish evil laugh ever) he established himself as a villain.
Starking definitely takes inspiration from Koba
He looks like a bonobo orangutan kong with a similar head shape
He’s even hunched back
Pretty interesting honestly, it is quite traditional for the franchise to mix different animals into one kaiju, like Godzilla is a tyranosaurus and stegosaurus mixture and Kong is kind of like a gorilla and a chimp
the way skar king came in, he is such a damn villain. not gonna lie, dude was really really a bad ass. One of the best and enjoyable godzilla movies. and maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, this version of godzilla is a true, trueeeeeee monster
1:56 Fun fact! You can see Kong about to grab his axe! He's being very cautious of what Scar King can do! I really love details like this in movies! It shows you the RAW emotion through these characters, and they delivered! Good work to the GxK team who made this movie happen!
“Choose your actions wisely, trigger fingers.”
@@MaceDeMarco2010"Oh yeah? Watch me!"
Oh yeah
Kind of like Kratos' body language when Odin shows up for the first time.
it's not real ffs
0:26 love skar kings roar. Play this on my loud speakers outside at night. This could terrify someone.
the sound is more thunderous in the cinema, scary
0:39 that roar is so scary.
2:04 Scar King looking like, "Hey, you want to see something cool?" Right before he just kicks the dude into the lava is honestly insane
I love how despite obviously being nowhere near Kong in terms of raw strength, he's by NO means a weak or incompetent opponent. His highly acrobatic fighting style and sheer cunning allow him to face Kong on a fairly even level and the skill he has with his whip is nothing to scoff at.
Honestly If Godzilla hadn't supercharged himself prior I genuinely believe SK could given him a decent fight before ultimately getting atomized.
Yeah fr and was winning most of the fight
Kong just got one hit in and I honestly think eventually skar king could have won but would have been badly injured so that's probably why he used shimo
But the Godzilla part i don't really agree
G14 and maybe g19 before the amp he could beat
@@user-qx3fj2jc7wBro, you really think Skar was gone hang with Godzilla
@@wesleycuban8649 no I'm just saying that he isn't weak like people think he is
Skar King being a cruel dictator is fascinating because I have read somewhere that occassionally chimpanzee can be observed doing this too in real life and Skar King is giant red chimpanzee
In the end, he died frozen into pieces
1:32 Scar king:*laughing*
Suko:*laughing*
Kong: What's a funny?
Got me dying💀
So much dopeness in this scene
This scene... this scene right here...
This is how you give a kaiju character. In just 5 minutes (I'm also referencing the fight after this and the sequences before), we get everything that we need to know about Skar King, who he is, and why we should fear him. And I love it so much
You can instantly tell he's an asshole.
Kongs journey in this movie with Suko is handled so well. Not a single line of dialogue is spoken but you know everything that’s being said through gestures and grunts and roars. Hats off to wingard, can’t wait for gxk 3!
Hopefully it's more Godzilla focused this time. I'm sure a similar treatment could potentially work, he may be a reptile but that doesn't mean he can't emote 😂
this scene was one of the best
the Skar King is an evil psychopath but you got to admit his entrance was badass. He’s easily become my favourite Monsterverse villain yet to date.
Edit: and I have to admit that stance he made at 1:54 is actually terrifying.
