Not just G14 but for kotm and GvK and possibly the apple plus Godzilla show and the Skull island animated series on Netflix (whenever that happens)
@@Godzilla-tu2cd and soon Godzilla x Kong!
@@joshuam.6027 yup 👍🏿
No Godzilla king of monsters before Godzilla vs Kong????
Kong is just a teenager here in 1973 hes grown a lot in the 45 years since
This movie was surprisingly brutal. But the end note of John C. Reilly's character returning home to his family got to me; really unexpected touching end to the film.
the hot dogs, haha
Tears were flowing 😢😢😢
I'm not gonna lie this is my favorite out of the new monsterverse movies right now. Kong gets a good amount of screen time and the human characters are actually interesting.
I agree.
Yeah, too bad Godzilla vs Kong couldn't follow these characters, because it took place way back in the '70s. The most interesting thing about the sequel was the fight scenes.
GvK is my favorite just because the fight was the highest bar I had and I really didn't expect it to live up to all the hype that was building but somehow it did. But this is definitely the best of the movies in terms of its balance between the monster stuff and the human stuff. Godzilla 2014 had a big and pretty well thoughtout human story, but very little of Godzilla and monster fighting. King of the Monsters had a lot of Godzilla and monsters and really fun callbacks to the history of the Godzilla movies, but the human story suffered from it. And that was double for GvK because the fights were the most important thing to focus on because of all the hype and the human story really did just exist to give the fight a reason to happen.
@@melanie62954 well the critic and the fan want the fight scene more than the character scene. The movie was gonna be long, but they cut out off all of the characters stories. So blame the hate and the critic for changing the movie.
Why would you lie? Why would we need you to tell us you’re not going to lie? Are you a liar who can’t stop lying till now? 🤨
Fun fact: Director Jordan Vogt-Roberts has said that the filmmakers intentionally tried to differentiate the Kong design in this film from the design featured in the 2005 film directed by Peter Jackson. Rather than making the design resemble a gigantic silverback gorilla that walks on all four limbs like in Jackson's film, the designers chose to have Kong stand upright like a human. A major reason for this was to show that Kong is his own species that has its "own set of rules, so [the filmmakers] can do what we want and [they] really wanted to pay homage to what came before...and yet do something completely different.
"Sometimes an enemy doesn't exist till you go looking for one." perfectly sums up this movie. If the soldiers and Monarch didn't drop the charges then they wouldn't have anger Kong or woken up so many of the Skull-Crawlers, and is seen with all the other creatures. The spider stepped on one of the soldiers and was defending it's self when the other soldiers started attacking it. The same with the birds, when one was killed, the others went to attack the threat. Compared to Hiddleston and some of the others who weren't so keen to just "shoot first, ask questions later", like with the giant water buffalo.
The spider was a little different. In this universe, the mother long legs (the spider) can absorb nutrients through its legs. It was hunting the soldiers but wasn't ready for guns.
This version of Kong is one of the most empathic and benevolent titans besides godzilla in the monsterverse.
This movie is really solid. But I can't wait for King of The Monsters. My all time favorite Godzilla movie
Agreed, it's so epic and I cant wait for them to see it!
@Aaron Bethom as soon as they uploaded the first one I said to myself "can't wait for King of The Monsters"
@@phillytothej4001 hahah yep it's the one I've been waiting for aswell, dont get me wrong I like the others but King of the monsters just gets me that special place
King of the Monsters is by far the best movie in the Monster Verse, it has an amazing sountrack, an epic CGI and most important it has cool monsters and fights.
@@Error-el7zx 100% agree
41:24 the Three headed dragon is King Ghidorah he first appeared in the 1964 godzilla film Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster, he's considered Godzilla's main enemy and has fought Godzilla the most in the Godzilla franchise.
I always feel bad for Kong... I don't know. Guess its the same feeling I get when I watch planet of the apes😂
Fun fact, the guy who plays Chapman, Toby Kebbel, does the mocap work for Kong!
And Koba
I have this weird feeling that they didn't even give John C. Reilly a script - they just gave him a breakdown of the character he plays and told him to ad lib then told the rest of the cast to just react to the insanity.
One of my favorite “guilty pleasure” movies, it’s just fun. And John C Riley is a mythical treasure in this one!
Why is it a guilty pleasure? It's not a bad movie it's really fun and entertaining?
@@itzbp9949 my guilt is no one’s business but my own. Lol
@@itzbp9949 guilty pleasure is a very subjective word tbh, it's honestly up to your interpretation and how you use it.
@@joshuam.6027 I think the confusion comes from the fact that there are a lot of Kong/Godzilla/etc movies that would be more obviously a guilty pleasure, whereas this movie, IMO, is just really good with no "guilty" about it. But of course yes it's also true this is a very subjective thing.
If y'all are wondering about the names of these creatures are Kong, giant water buffalo, Mommy long legs, Skull crawlers, Leaf wings, Spore Mantis, giant Squid, Giant ants and there are other creatures not shown in the film but in other source material like the prequel novels and novelisation of the films like Psycho vultures, Death Jackals, Siren Jaw, the Icarus Tiger and other creatures.
Icarus Tiger sounds freaking metal.
Which novels would you recommend to start with?
@@brandon_g13 probably do in this order Godzilla awakening(a prequel to Godzilla 2014), the birth of Kong( Kong skull island prequel), Godzilla aftershock (Godzilla King of the Monsters prequel), Godzilla dominion and kingdom Kong (both prequels to Godzilla vs Kong)
@@malgramixrivera0927 So what im hearing is they made prequel books of all the movies basically lol
Mommy Long Legs 😆🤣
This version of Kong, as presented in this movie, is over one hundred feet tall… and he’s still just a kid. He’s barely entered his teens by the standard of his species, and he’s still considered gifted, a mutant even among his species, because he’s already the size his parents were when they died, and yet he’s only a third of his maximum size he can grow to, for matching up with Godzilla. So he does some growing in the time from this movie to the end of the Monsterverse.
The actor who plays Chapman is one of the motion capture actors who plays Kong, and he’s also the one who plays Koba in the Planet of the Apes trilogy. You can kind of see Koba’s face in his if you look closely, and any time Kong actually sneers with rage, he actually has the same sneer Koba had. This will be really prominent in one particular scene in Godzilla vs Kong, so watch for it. You’ll be watching Kong, and for the briefest instant, see Koba’s face in his features when he sneers and snarls.
Could he become even bigger than he was in GvK by the time GxK happens?
Fun fact for you guys: Terry Notary, who played Rocket in the Planet of the Apes trilogy, did the mo-cap for Kong in this movie!
Another Planet of the Apes connection, Toby Kebbell who plays Chapman, played Koba in Dawn of the
Planet of the Apes.
Terry Notary was also Tim Roth's stunt double in Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes, and he was Gordy in NOPE, and Cull Obsidian in Infinity War and Endgame
HEY GUYS!!
Fun Fact: Now you know where Heath from The Walking Dead went...he went to Skull Island. Corey Hawkins played Houston Brooks in this movie.
Bridgerton, when? 😏
I wasn't expecting John C Reilly's character or some survivor to be in the movie when I first saw it but he really stole the show.
The world building in the movie was really good, kept me captivated through the whole thing. Y'all should do a Shin Godzilla reaction after the Monsterverse stuff!
yes! shin godzilla for sure!
The end of this silly monster movie actually brought my Marine Vet Father to tears. That is absolutely crazy.
Of all the Monsterverse movies, this one is the best and it’s not even close. The characters have just enough personality to keep the story moving, and the monster action is breathtaking.
The next one KOTM is my personal favourite in this series, saw it in theatres and it was absolutely stunning. Music, cgi, story, plot, and with the perfect amount of comedy mixed in. It’s badass as hell.
I just like the fact that they got the original Japanese roar
"plot", lol
@@thesnazzycometThey had the original Japanese roar from the beginning.
And, keep in mind, Toho has been extremely protective of Godzilla since 98.
If they didn't like what they saw or heard, they wouldn't have approved it.
Not that it matter to anyone, but I know the post credit scene for this film so well that I could quote it in a perfect performance backwards in my sleep. This film stayed in theatres for months and we could never clean up in time to get out before it started since people always stayed to watch it. I hear "I promise I won't tell the russians" and "I promise I will tell the russians" randomly when walking home from work sometimes, it haunts me.
For me, the best King Kong film is still Peter Jackson's from 2005. But I was pleasantly surprised by this film, it's not as good as Peter Jackson's film, but it's a very well-made popcorn film that's just supposed to be fun. I also like that 70's style and also the music from the decade. What I also think is great is that humanity is still evolving. Once upon a time, the USA and Vietnam were at war (which shouldn't be forgotten either) but they are getting closer to each other again and that always touches me a lot. Kong: Skull Island was also filmed extensively in Vietnam.
I loved this one in many aspects, but I have to agree. The 2005 one is the best Kong film.
Absolutely, Jackson’s King Kong is a film. Skull island is just a movie.
Yep. King Kong 2005 is an epic. With multiple acts. A tale as old as cinema itself. (Shame some of the CGI doesn’t hold up).
Skull Island is an action movie with a big ape named Kong that smashes things.
Both good in their own right, but King Kong 2005 is a clear winner through and through.
@@dogtagduke7125 every time the credits roll after Black’s “it was beauty that killed the beast” I just sit there in sheer awe of the horrifying and beautiful journey I was just taken on.
Skull island is good background noise I guess.
Yes. This comment is spot-on.
This was the best of the Monsterverse movies, by far. Constant action, with a focus on the monsters where it belongs.
Kong: Skull Island, where everything that CAN go Kong, WILL go Kong!
When the post credits scene came.... oooh.🔥Plenty around the world did not know that the crossovers had already happened decades ago. I was one of them. So when this happened...
I am a huge Godzilla fan, but this is my favorite in the monsterverse
They didn't pull punches with this movie. It feels like a war movie. Jackson as the desperate for a mission losing his mind military commander is just awesome. The scientists trying to figure things out and follow their mission goals. Kong is raw natural brutality that just can't be matched. The graphics are great, the visuals are beautiful. There are some absolutely epic shots in this film... and it sets the stage for the monsterverse. The films with Godzilla after this one are really good, and when Kong and the big G finally meet, it's a pretty epic movie. And more coming, including a new one from Toho!! The cast in this film is also incredibly stacked. And they all do a really good job.
She's up for the cover of Time for her photos and she takes this random survey job... only to discover a lost tribe of people and monsters. I think her career is okay. Hiddleston's character is just awesome as hell. The humor in the movie is very well done and always feels like it belongs in the situation. And the ending for the pilot is very touching. Jackson's character isn't an asshole... he's been mentally screwed up by a horrific war and then the idea of just walking away from it. His comment about cameras is extremely telling. His need to complete the mission... he's got issues, but he's not an asshole. He just can't let go. He needs help, but he is in no way ready to get it. Or in a place he can.
Sadly, any photos she took would be highly classified (Granted, not that she'd be willing to give them up).
Toby Kebbell (Chapman) did the MoCap for Kong and for Koba in the “Planet of the Apes” series.
This was hands down my favorite of the monsterverse movies. The story was much more cohesive in my opinion and I enjoyed the characters. The other ones just seemed like a lot of action scenes thrown together. But to each their own!
I legit can't wait for the next one. Oak will love it mark my words.
Im glad you guys got into this monsterverse! It’s amazing, keep up the great work guys.
this was so awesome in theaters!! so much fun! i felt like a kid watching a saturday morning movie - and you better believe i caught it on a saturday morning matinee. fantastic!!!
This is my personal favorite iteration of Kong. It feels so original.
Funny thing is kong is a young teenager in this film in the 70,s only a 100 feet tall in Godzilla vs kong is fully grown Over three times the size his species has big role to play in future films. I always enjoy your reactions guys. This film is great In many ways 2014 Godzilla isn’t terrible but this film is what the first movie should be. More monsters, action, drama, and better understanding into the lore. 🎥😎👍😁
Huge fan of how good the monsterverse got so quickly. Super excited to see you guys react to GodzillaVKong
This has the best humans in the series
this one was also a lot better because you could actually see the fights and they focused on the monsters instead of the other stuff like the family in Godzilla trying to survive... I mean, I wanna see monsters in my monster movie, so this one delivered =)
I love the moment Riley asks, “Hey, have the Cubs won the World Series yet?”!!
…The movie was made a year after the Cubs ACTUALLY won the Series in 2016!!
By far my favourite Kong movie.
Great reaction, guys. This is the best reaction to this movie on CZcams!!!!! Keep up the great work.
The Monsterverse gets really fun, epic, and really interesting moving forward from here. Also, a new Monsterverse movie is coming later next year and also a new series, live-action and an anime-style one.
Love this movie! Kong!
I'm happy to see you guys continuing the Monsterverse ot only gets better from here ((imo))
One of the best looking movies I’ve seen in years. The story is whatever but I was blown away visually watching in the theater
This is my fav purely the atmosphere and kong is the goat , but the other movies all have their vibe and place and like them all not gonna lie
I love this movie. I think the time period makes it really interesting.
Nick Fury, Captain Marvel, Loki, Casey from LOKI season 1...
I only saw this once in theatres but I remember thinking it was a lot of fun. It was fun to rewatch with you!
I'm Glad You Guys Are Doing The Monster Verse Here For The Entire Journey
Yaaaas! I love this one. Got plenty of flaws, but starting with this one the movies do get a lot better. I’d say the most recent Godzilla vs Kong was very rushed, but very enjoyable anyways, but King of the Monsters is gonna blow your socks off
The 2005 King Kong is a masterpiece. This one is an action flick.
I loved 2005 King Kong! I think you guy's should rewatch it, its better than most people remember. I know it's not for everyone but I think it's fantastic! I also love the character of Kong! Skull Island is incredible though! Rejuvenated the Kong fan in me😎
Great reaction and great content from you guys thank you
This was a great one. Super excited for the King of the monsters. My favourite monster movie.
I used to be an Army "Huey" helicopter crew chief and let me tell you, the camera work inside the helicopters was SPOT ON!
I LOVE your reactions to movies like this and I laughed so hard at your reaction when Umbrigde was taken by the Centaurs😂🤩
Great Reaction Boys, as always👍!
This is my favorite from the this universe✨ enjoyed the cast and the action
When Sam Jackson says: "Hold on your butts." It is a flashback to the original Jurassic Park movie. He says it when they switch the computers back on again😂😂
Yes bad medicine is come back 😮
FYI this was filmed in southern Vietnam, a part that never saw the war. This is my music. ❤❤❤ This movie!
the actor playing Chapman, also did the motion cap for Kong.
Kong the 8th wonder of the world 🌍
Kong was just defending his home after they dropped their bombs on his peaceful home. Jackson was such a dhead in this one. Tom was hot as hell.
I remember seeing this in cinema. I screamed when the guy got impladed by the spider leg. Lol
That movie surprised the hell out of me when I watched it for the first time! I was going in expecting just another monster movie, nothing much really, but I was truly and positively surprised. I really like this movie. Not as much as Godzilla though, but Kong is a strong second.
You got your Vietnam movie in my King Kong movie!
You got your King Kong in my Vietnam movie!
I can't wait for you guys to do Godzilla Vs Kong! I got to see it in theatres, it was wicked good. Which team are you? I'm team ZILLA!
Seeing all of these in IMAX brings the fire with GvK being spectacular..
I've seen this movie before but I just got chills at the Godzilla reveal. I remember being so hype and nerding out about godzilla to my family who had no clue what was going on as we walked out the theatre
Man, can't wait for you guys to see King of the Monsters!!! You're gonna love it, I promise
Really liked this one 💜
I really wish they had the same composer as "Godzilla," Alexandre Desplat. Seriously, just listen to the title track and/or Last Shot if you forgot the music. His soundtracks have soul.
Love the interest you have in this franchise 🙌
The giant bugs were scary on this one, but I can't forget the centipedes scene on Peter Jackson's version. That one traumatized me.
This Kong was awesome, especially having watched all the old Godzilla and Mothra movies from the 50s and 60s.
Imagine this in 3D. I watched it in the theater in 3D it was awesome!!!
Moral of the story, The Oak needs to stop switching channels when traveling
I wasn’t aware u til this year that all these movies were connected.. this is the only one I’ve seen an I ABSOLUTELY love this movie.. I saw it in the cinema and maybe 5-10 times since. I need to check out the rest of them.. I can’t imagine how Godzilla is involved.
I really liked this movie! Great reaction, a lot of fun! 👌😊
_still patiently waiting for the "Underworld" reactions._ 😉
Everyone's reaction "Oh, my God! Captain Marvel, Loki, and Nick Fury are in this movie?! No way?!🤩"
Definitely a big step up from godzilla 2014... This is my second favourite after godzilla vs kong... You got to remember the budgets went up as the movie franchise progressed so they had more to spend on tge cgi which enabled them to showcase the monsters more which is why godzilla wasnt shown as much in the first movie, you'll definitely see him more often in the next movies!... Fantastic reaction as always though guys!! What franchise next? Jurassic park?🤔
The prequel to this movie was even better. Especially the extended version. They re-did the original black and white King Kong to perfection!
All these movies bring out the high tech compared to the suits in the early movies I grew up with watching on Saturday mornings.
So great to see these making a come back.
Godzilla was the starting point with each Monster Verse movie getting better and better with the Godzilla vs Kong being utterly outstanding giving that Saturday morning vibe.
Looking forward to KOTM as it really gets things moving...
First comment enjoy the franchise guys
I grew up watching Godzilla and King Kong movies at the drive-in...so I have to watch any version that comes out now.
I mean of course Sam Jackson had to die saying his favorite line😅
hahaha wish he made it. Can't ever have too much Sam Jackson.
This was a good movie I with to the movie theater's when it first came out
That was a young Kong too at the time
They did a good job with this one.
Bonus pts for Hercules Hernandez reference..
Cpt Holt will not be happy with Kevin being out there
Nice to see Larsen playing a character I didn't immediately hate.
Watching this after watching Monarch is really interesting. I hope the guys watch that soon.
Yes here we go monsterverse, love you guys once your done with these would you consider doing some scary stuff i love it when your scared sorry not sorry ha ha. Maybe identity or hide and seek or both have you guys watched the meg with jason statham that's awesome
I have been summoned
you 3 guys are fxx cool
I saw it in theaters in 3D. It was cool.
Noice I love this movie. I agree a lot, I definitely feel this movie took the downsides of Godzilla and decided to improve on it. Which gives me a lot of respect for the ones behind this. Learn what didn't work and make it better. The cast was amazing. Not gonna lie I have a thing for Tom Hiddleston and this movie gave so much eye candy, lol. Really all their performances were amazing. I loved all the gory stuff, for me it cemented how this really is a world of monsters. Even if Kong is a good guy, just how much weaker and vulnerable humans are. The CGI and all the details was phenomenal. I am glad you guys liked it. i can't wait to see you continue it!
This was really cool 😎 Godzilla is my favorite but King Kong is a close second.
This movie was way better than I thought it would be. I was expecting a mindless monster movie with two-dimensional excuses for characters. What I got instead was a charismatic cast of characters, a military leader who wasn't just a warmongering a*hole and an island setting that's just fascinating on it's own.
Welcome to the MonsterVerse guys.
41:23 that is Ghidorah, and he is not an Earth Titan, he is an alien Titan from a different planet, and he is the ancient arch nemesis of Godzilla.
