King Kong vs. Godzilla
Im in!






Legendary sets up a possible 'Avengers' style crossover for King Kong and Godzilla



http://www.hitfix.com/motion-capture...g-and-godzilla


While I wouldn't exactly call it a shock, it is a thrill to see Legendary come out strong and stake their claim on "Godzilla 2." The real treat of them going back for a second film is going to be seeing how Toho lets them play with the other toys in the toy box.

One of the things that became clear as they showed their "secret" Monarch footage today is that they have big plans for the Godzilla series. Gareth Edwards has a very dry British wit, and that was on full display when he did his taped message for the audience from San Francisco where he's supposedly supervising the rebuilding of the city. He talked about how he needed to take a break from the pressure of working on high-profile properties that fanboys will have opinions about, a lovely nod to his impending "Star Wars" adventure, and then was interrupted by Godzilla, who was on Alcatraz island, unhappy to be caged in by the military.

The introduction of the three new monsters they plan to use in the sequel was pretty great, done through shadows and suggestion, and I'm totally down for a movie with Mothra, Rodan, and Ghidorah all showing up to rumble. I laughed out loud at the final title card that just read, "Let them fight." I guarantee that whatever movie Gareth makes with these characters next time, it won't just be a repeat of the peekaboo strategy of the first film. I think Edwards is smarter than that, and there's no need to play coy with Godzilla himself.

What I'm most curious about is the other trailer they showed at the end of the Legendary panel, because it feels to me like this is another possible example of the Marvel influence at work. To their credit, Legendary kept this one completely under wraps until now, but I'm not sure I get the point of a stand-alone remake of "King Kong." True, it doesn't look like they're doing a straight remake in the traditional sense, but they revealed the big ape in all his glory at the end of a long tracking push-in through the island, over the wall, past other creatures barely glimpsed. The reaction in the room was, to say the least, confused, and it's more because no one was expecting it than as a real reaction to the idea.

Still holding out hope for a Godzilla vs. Gamera movie.

Yeah, but I saw Kong fight 3 T-Rexes at once in his last movie. Pretty bad ass!
But you're right, I don't think he can beat Godzilla

Unless they give him Frankenstein powers like the original Godzilla vs. King Kong, which was supposed to be Frankenstein vs. Godzilla.

There's a pretty ****ing huge size discrepancy if they pit the Peter Jackson Kong against this latest Godzilla incarnation.

If they were the same size, I'd probably take Kong for the win.

Everyone is trying to ape what Marvel has/is doing.

Create the "all star/team up" movie with some standalonea thrown in.


Disney with Star Wars, Universal is rebooting the classic monsters. Dracula, Frankenstein, mummy, wolf man.

It's all the rage. Plus it provides a constant revenue stream with a shared universe.

It's not going to happen.

Edwards has stated he'd like to use Toho monsters while keeping the film grounded.

Kong will definitely not be in G2...

Legendary did announce a "skull island" movie.

Edwards might not make it, but he probably will move on after Godzilla 2.

I think he's got a 3 movie agreement now. Not positive on that.

Legendary is just riding the giant monster wave. Pacific Rim, Godzilla, King Kong, etc...
