I'll be seeing it on tuesday can't wait. I wasn't a fan of Peter Jackson's Kong. This look's much better.

Re: Skull Island- King Kong (2016)
Saw it last night. Luckily a private screening so the theater was only 1/3 full.
SpoilerIt made more sense once we found out SLJ was looking for a final battle to engage in, but I was really frustrated when they didn't just pull out and kept getting really close to Kong when it was obvious he was winning. Couldn't they have just dropped the "bombs" on him from higher up?
I think I liked this movie better overall, but thought the 2005 movie was better when it came to showing off just how different the island was with all of the prehistoric or whatever creatures.SpoilerI thought that at first but then was like those bombs aren't moving to fast and going straight down, plus panic set in and their first thought was to grab their guns. He took out a few Helicopters pretty quick so I give them a pass on that.
SpoilerI wonder if the same cast is going to be in Godzilla 2 and Godzilla vs Kong, makes since with them showing all the other monsters cause I would assume Godzilla will be fighting at least 2 of them in the next movie.
Love the movie and Kong was nastyLast edited by Sinner; 03-10-2017, 03:43 PM.-= Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.=- Edward MurphyComment

That's because this Kong is a throwback to the 1933 original, which is more of a monster ape than a real gorilla.
I jumped out of my seat after the ending credits.Comment

Re: Skull Island- King Kong (2016)
I have yet to see the movie, but I tried watching its trailer in the D-Box seats in the theater lobby, and became nauseated within seconds. I hope this isn't due to my PCS condition I've had the past couple of years. That would mean I probably can't ride roller coasters again either.
Nevertheless, the most ridiculous way I can experience this one is only in 3D. Seeing that I really did enjoy Peter Jackson's version, I know I'll get to this one someday but I'm not necessarily as excited this time around until I feel the connection with Godzilla down the line (didn't really like that film too much though either).Last edited by Blzer; 03-16-2017, 01:40 AM.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: Skull Island- King Kong (2016)
I thought that everything involving Kong was pretty incredible. I do agree with the point of:
SpoilerFor skilled helicopter pilots, that battle didn't make much sense to me.
Storyline wise I thought the first half was better than the second half. The part I especially thought was a flaw was.....
SpoilerWhen the girl falls into the mirky water and had been there for a decent amount of time, yet Kong knows exactly where to scoop her out? Naw.
Not being a SLJ fan, I didn't mind him in this at all. Maybe because when...
SpoilerJohn C. Reilly showed up, he brought his usual goofy presentation which I didn't think belonged in this movie at all. But that's just me.
Overall, good popcorn movie. Like a 6.5/10.Comment
