OK, Smart Guy... where does Godzooky fit into all of this??  :P

Godzooky doesnt fit into this. Hard to believe that they made the offspring of the mighty godzilla blow smoke rings.

 

And BTW, how was godzooky created? Was that ever explained?

Ahem, boy am I wearing my geek hat today!!!

 

Minya (the true "Son Of Godzilla") blews rings, though not made of smoke. I don't think Godzooky was ever actually called an off-spring of Godzilla. As a kid though, I loved that cartoon. Go figure.

 

Hey, if any of you want to talk about this, I will be here:

And welcome all people to join in on the fun. Heck, my wife and kids are actually joining me for this one!!! It only took me 11 years to convince my wife to go with me! LOL!!!

Not sure what to think about this movie. Will be seeing it though.

That's a pretty sweet poster. I'm a sucker for a good movie poster. :P

Trust me, there are a ton of us, and I am NOTHING compared to many. If you think Trekkies are out there, you ain't seen nothing!!! LOL!!! I'd take some pix at the convention, but you don't get the real scheme of things unless you are around them. They take their hobby...ummm...kind of serious. Don't mess with them, in other words.

Meet the Feebles meeting the Muppets. That's what I want to see.

Smart money is on the knife-throwing 'Nam Vet heroin addict rabbit and the misogynistic walrus. Pepe the King Prawn, you don't have a prayer.

I love Godzilla movies.. Ide like to consider myself a Godzilla Geek, I have rented every Godzilla movie they have at blockbuster.. Hell ill eve go as far to admit that one time I cried when Godzilla jumped into a Volcano, I love Godzilla..

 

The worst one IMO was the remake they made with Mathew Broderick... Godzilla my ass, that was more of a T Rex, looked nothing like Godzilla at all.. I was dissapointed with that one..

LOL, didnt the rabbit think he had AIDs until the very minute before he was blown away? I thought the fly was hilarious too, the gossip fly.

Yes or no. Is Jackson's Kong big enough to play with a train like it was a toy in his living room? The answer is no. I'll refer to the 2 movies by their female co-stars since this is an ape love for human female franchise.

 

Both Jessica's & Faye's Kongs were big enough to play with the train like it was a toy. Both of those Kongs could punt this Kong like a football. If you stretched him out he might not even be bigger than a train car itself!

 

Since you are such a Kong lover rent Jessica's Kong (she is so F'g HOT in that movie) & see for yourself why SIZE REALLY MATTERS :D

Peter Jackson lost a ton of weight....

O.K., since we are going to play:

Notice Ann standing in front of Kong?

Notice Ann in Kong's hand? I'm seeing the Jackson Kong as slightly larger than the one designed by Willis O'Brien. Again, Jackson's Kong stands 24', the original shifted between 18' and 20' depending on the scene and the scale they were going for.

 

And for the record, I am THAT much of a Kong fanatic, and it is no secret that I am that much of a giant monster freak. But now since you say it, maybe I will go downstairs and watch the '76 version, and probably watch the original '33 version tonight, after I watch House Of Flying Daggers. Thanks for the suggestion. :D

A little off-scale, but a favorite picture of mine. This poster was on my walls when I was about 5 years old!

And...

The Time magazine cover from the time. You can see how Dwan fits in Kong's hand compared to Ann. A bit smaller, but not by much. So the Jackson Kong will be in the middle of O'Brien and Baker.

I was thinking the same thing. The movie looks so-so, but the poster is awesome.
