Yeah, it's flawed but very fun. And hopefully it takes only 3-7 years.
7 (Good). It's a flawed film but it's a lot of fun and it's great to see both Godzilla and Kong in a modern movie, finally having their rematch after all these years. Hopefully we don't have to wait another 59 years to see them together again.
Honestly its my least favprite of the MV films.
Kotm gets by because it was something I was anticipating for such a long time! And it lived up to it.
They do for a while, like the last moment is halfway in the movie, with the guy an leafwings
I've been walking the fine line between a 6 and a 7 for this one.
I do like the more horror-like vibe, wish they'd stuck with it the whole movie.
Tbh this is a bit of a hard one to think about for me.
Honestly I'd rather nor have a godzilla in the past, or in a documentary style, because it completely seperates him frommany themes that could surround him
Being a balance of nature is when Humans wreck everything, from everything in Mv with janjira to Mechagodzilla, to 1954
They could do a live action streaming mini series that's somewhat similar to the upcoming Prehistoric Planet (which, like the upcoming Godzilla/Monarch series, is set to be on Apple TV+). They could mostly do live action with most of the CGI effects being the Titans (if it's set in the past, they wouldn't have to worry about making big city destruction scenes) which could help with the budget of the series. I think the best direction for the MonsterVerse would be exploring the history of the Titans in the past.
@SasquaDash: Definitely. If they decide to explore the war that was fought between the Kong and Godzilla species in a future film, maybe they’ll explore it through the perspective of Godzilla and Kong’s ancestors, and the humans can just be side characters.
I will say though, that doing something like this would carry a lot of financial risk behind it. Like I said in my post above, to do a movie with an all monster cast would cost a shitload of money, and when you consider that the MonsterVerse hasn’t been the most profitable film franchise so far, to save themselves from a potential box office flop, perhaps Legendary will do it on a smaller and cheaper platform like animation or live action streaming. Or maybe they’ll decide to just take the risk if they feel that there’s enough interest.
What’s your take?
Here are my thoughts…
I think the main plot will revolve around another monster challenging Kong’s status as King of the Hollow Earth, while the secondary plot will revolve around Kong developing his relationship with Jia, and possibly forming a connection with another Kong (assuming more Kongs will be introduced). If Kong does meet another Kong, they’ll either be another member of his species, or belong to a subspecies of Ape Titans, much like how Doug was a member of a subspecies of Gojiras.
As for the human characters, I have a strong feeling that they aren’t going to be as much in the spotlight going forward. Based on how many casual moviegoers were happy that the human characters didn’t get as much time to shine as the monsters did in GVK, I wouldn’t be surprised if the monsters take the spotlight going forward. That’s not to say that we won’t get anymore human screentime or even character development. It’s just that their stories won’t be as important as the monsters’. This is just how the MonsterVerse has developed since G14. With each movie, as the monsters get more and more screentime, they become more well rounded and personified.
I definitely think we’ll see new biomes along with new creatures. I also think we’ll see variants of the Skullcrawlers and other Skull Island creatures. After all, we did briefly see red Leafwings flying around in the Hollow Earth in GVK, so I would’ve be surprised if we see different versions of the Skyer Buffalo, Mother Longlegs, and Sporemantis. We may even get to see the Shimidah, a scrapped monster from GVK that Team Kong were supposed to run into while traveling through the Hollow Earth, along with that giant Hellhawk that was shown in the GVK artbook.
Something else to consider is that the Iwis from Skull Island originally lived in the Hollow Earth before they were banished to the surface world with Kong’s species by the Gojiras. So I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility that we’ll see more Iwis in the Hollow Earth, possibly even living with a tribe of other Kongs.
As for the main antagonist, I believe they’ll either be Camazotz or an original monster. If they turn out to be an original monster, I honestly don’t know what type they’ll be at the moment.
I could see them easily doing one with Kong or his species, since they are extremely human-like and very expressive (plus in my opinion, the scenes that focused on Kong were some of the highlights in GvK). They could also make it feel like a docu-series similar to the Walking With series.
It kinda disturbed me when the guy was just suddenly had the bamboo in him. Man that would be an interesting horror scene in a horror movie.
The scene with the Mother Longlegs is probably one of the most unique giant spider scenes ever.
It has something I have been wanting from the Kaiju genre in a while, Horroresque elements
I would give Kong: Skull Island an 8 (Great), or 4 stars. I personally think it's the best movie in the MonsterVerse (so far) despite some flaws. I feel like it had the best balance between the humans and the monsters, and the action scenes are amazing (after years of seeing Kong being shot down by planes and helicopters, seeing him absolutely destroying the helicopters was insanely satisfying). Marlow is easily one of my favorite human characters in the MonsterVerse.
I've gone back and forth on giving it either a 7 or a 6 in the past (both scores are pretty solid)
As far as rounding up or down, I guess it depends on how much you enjoy it.
It would be interesting, but im not sure id want that personally, but im sure lots of other people do
Im not bitter
honestly i migh rank it a bit higher, it had a lot of potential and could have been really good and impactful if handled better.
7.
so thats 3.5
Should i round up or down?
I love kotm the only movie that's better in the monsterverse is Godzilla 2014.
hoooooraaaaay
There I fixed it, 400 members!
Im not leaving rodan! hes to lonely!
The way I usually rate movies is:
10 (Legendary), reserved for the best of the best.
9 (Excellent)
8 (Great)
7 (Good)
6 (Okay/Average)
5 (Mixed Bag)
4 (Mediocre/Poor)
3 (Bad)
2 (Terrible)
1 (One Big Pile Of S***!), only reserved for the worst of the worst.
As of now, I would probably give it a 6 (Okay/Average), or a 3/5. It has a lot of great moments and the monster scenes are really entertaining, but the story and human characters do have a lot of issues and the movie kind of suffers from having too many things happening at once. Still, I really enjoy the movie and a 6 is a pretty decent score.
Are the bots just ripping somewhat related site links and attaching the virus risking online games!
This bot is the weirdest bot ive ever seen,
Godzilla wanted to assert his dominance, he didn’t actually want Kong dead. That’s the whole deal with Godzilla putting his foot on Kong’s chest, just as he did Ghidorah “I could kill you right now, but do I need to?”
See this: https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-odds-of-Toho-letting-Legendary-make-more-Godzilla-films-after-Kong-geometry dash
But i dont see whats wrong with an existing and Popular game, having a godzilla event, when a whole godzilla game would get made only for it to fail
there was a game announced after KOTM a while ago, seems to have gone into Limbo
For some reason this makes me mad. We should be getting a full-on GVK game instead of this.
monster x/ kaizer ghidorah is one of the most powerful kaiju Godzilla has ever faced
x-plusはまったく別のものです。
really cool! now make a god ドーン ANKYLDICADOEC!
