Jackson's remake will always be my favorite film.

Kong and Godzilla in the same film just feels right. It's like east meets west in a clash of the titans.

As good as the monsterverse it, their Kong will never been Peter Jacksons Kong in 2005. That film has a special place in my heart

Give him some powers
He is just big and powerful but lacks special abilitiy
He is no match for Godzilla

Whoa..time out: you forgot the Rankin/Bass animated King Kong show! Slackers!

[abdulrazakabdulmajid]

In all of the kong woman, jessica lange is still the best.

How would they continue the story of Kong after Godzilla vs. Kong?

[ExtremeMadnessX]

Komodo dragon is not primitive reptile.

This history is wrong. The original king kong was a book first then made into a movie. King Kong

Book by Delos W. Lovelace from Jacksonville fl who wrote it in 1933 before the film was made. Copper gave his adventure stories as an outline but he didn't name the characters

[malachiking]

RKO productions probably where randy got his finisher
