I totally agree. And I also don't want Kong to be that small either - it's just people were talking as if somehow Kong's size would mysteriously bind the filmmakers.Thunderbird wrote:You can try to sell anything but audiences will only buy so much.

How unfortunate. I loved her as an actress ever since her first appearance as Michonne on The Walking Dead. :/Maritonic wrote:No updates from what I can find online.

Yup, I'd love to see her join this. Between The Walking Dead and whatever they're doing with Black Panther and Avengers, she might be too busy for it, though. We'll see.JGAR wrote:How unfortunate.

King Kong wearing battle paint. I don't care if the Iwi paint this on him or just supply him with something and he does it himself, I wanna see this.

And it can wash off when he (presumably) swims off of Skull Island. I'd also like to see him make a shield out of various ships stranded on his island.Dr. Professor wrote:Oh shit, that's a really cool idea.Living Corpse wrote:King Kong wearing battle paint.

Honestly my first thought was "Nah," but the second thought was "Painting himself? That could work."Living Corpse wrote:King Kong wearing battle paint. I don't care if the Iwi paint this on him or just supply him with something and he does it himself, I wanna see this.
I do want a Kong who's intelligence makes calling him a 'monster' difficult. A Kong that maybe possibly might actually understand human speech. Rub a little of Rampage's George and Congo's Amy on him.

It would be a bit out there, I most definitely would enjoy seeing it.

Someone mentioned a theory I doubt they'll explore but they said if Godzilla is this protector of balance and the Earth why didn't he save Kong's parents and maybe Kong in a way could process that same question thus setting up the fight.

Godzilla isnt a super hero lmfao Kongs parents have no impact on the balance of Earth and the skull crawlers don't threaten to throw things out of order like the Muto. Why would Godzilla care about either?miguelnuva wrote:Someone mentioned a theory I doubt they'll explore but they said if Godzilla is this protector of balance and the Earth why didn't he save Kong's parents and maybe Kong in a way could process that same question thus setting up the fight.

You'd have to ask the person that made the theory. Skull island did kinda make it seem like no Kong would cause out of control skull crawlers.Godzillian wrote:Godzilla isnt a super hero lmfao Kongs parents have no impact on the balance of Earth and the skull crawlers don't threaten to throw things out of order like the Muto.

This is actually a cool idea, a bit in the same vein as Kong using the anchor as a weapon and the slow motion bit. A little cheesy, but not too much. Enjoyable to watch, plus it would show that he's super intelligent.
I'm assuming Kong is going to get his ass handed to him the first fight. Once he retreats, I'd love to see a scene of him making weapons and shields, and in this case, rounding up some skull crawlers to take on Godzilla. We know at this point that the second fight is going to be Kong's advantage and Godzilla won't see any of it coming.

Ehhh not digging it. I don't know how this would work in any way that wasn't utterly ridiculous.

Same with Kong crafting tools and weapons and shields. His shields should be his forearms, his weapons wouldn't work on Godzilla besides ripping bits of buildings or structures. I think if he starts crafting weapons it'd be real weird. He's a 300 ft kaiju he shouldn't have to be so needed that he can't go toe-to-toe and needs to pull tricks to get the upper hand.Maritonic wrote:Ehhh not digging it.

I'm completely cool with Kong continuing to use his surroundings as weapons, but I wouldn't be able to take the movie seriously if he started straight up crafting them, same with the whole attack dogs idea. But I still REALLY love the paint concept.

Maybe Kong will grab part of the screen, and rip it off. Therefore throwing Godzilla into cinematic limbo.
