The reason why Kong leave Hiddleston and Larson alone is solely due to them are holding hands. Because, as we saw with the Kong skeletons, that is something that Kongs tend to do, so he saw a parallel between them and his dead parents. It's never spelt out in the movie, but I think I like that level of subtlety.
The production designer for this movie, Stefan Dechant, came to my Production Design class in film school to talk about and show us some BTS of the movies he’s worked on. He said the Skullwalkers were inspired by Cubone as well as No Face from Spirited Away, and that the tall, bipedal silhouette of Kong is due to a sketch Vogt-Roberts drew very early on based on Johnny Cash: tall, long legged, broad shoulders. And a lot of the creatures and giant monsters are inspired by real animals and insects in which they shot the movie, particularly Vietnam, so that the creatures would feel indigenous and natural to the environment
The second Jim clip made me realize something I love about this channel that basically no one else does.

And all the little blink-and-you-miss-it jokes make it worth actually watching rather than just listening to the audio. Never stop. Corn of Coblin 2024
That's why I'm always sure to actually watch their videos rather than just listen like I would with a lot of movie review/discussion channels. The boys are obviously hilarious, but honestly, for me, the editors are what make this channel special for me.
For the longest time since I heard it for the first time, I wondered why it was called gorilla warfare, a couple weeks ago I was riding on my motorcycle and my brain clicked, it's guerilla I had seen it written before, but it never read as the same thing. I'm not a native speaker but I'm an English as foreign language teacher, to be fair, is not something that comes out in conversations often.
Honestly the end scene with john c reilly is probably the most cinematically satisfying moment post-2014 godzilla atomic breathe power-ups in this franchise.
Having worked on this film I think I could offer some valuable insight. The change to the Vietnam era was met with some apprehension from the studio executives initially but they came around to it but did ask for one scene to be cut. That scene was a classic napalm scene across a Vietnamese village during harvesting season. The unique twist on it was because of the unique flora and fauna the flames would turn blue… which lead to the working title for this film being ‘Blue Harvest’
Absolutely loved this movie. The one thing that stood out to me in this movie is the fact that the humans are by no means the main character, which I feel is greatly reflected in the deaths of a lot of them. The amount of emphasis put on certain humans for them to be snuffed out so fast, and without much fanfare is so apparent. Samuel L Jackson's character doesn't get this big villain ending, he just gets crushed and forgotten. Shea Whigham gets this big, emotional sacrifice, that yields no results. Toby Kebbell has this hopeful, sad little narrative that just ends so fast, and no one even notices. It does so well at focusing on the fact that Kong is the main character. (Although I definitely feel Tom Hiddleston's character wasn't necessary, and ultimately feels out of place.)
I don't think Sam's character would even mind that. Either he stops the threat, or dies a proper death trying, so he doesn't feel ashamed for being told to leave business in Nam anymore.
The pov character isn't necessary? He's more necessary than Larson's. I had legit forgotten she was in this when me and a friend talked about this movie before.
Man, this movie was just so much fun! They absolutely understood the assignment with it. Kinda wish they'd gotten this director to do Godzilla vs Kong.
The giant spiders were definitely a highlight. They managed to create such implied gruesome horror within the confines of a 12a (or PG13 for Americans) rating. I remember seeing this in the cinema when I was a lot younger and that scene stuck with me

That scene of the skullcrawler absolutely super smash bros tail slapping him into the mountain is one of the best moments in all of them 🤣and in any movie for a while at that time, unexpected, hilarious and a little somber knowing it's for nothing 😂
It's become the number 1 clip that gets posted completely out of context on social media to farm bewildered and angry "Can't beleive this film is meant to be good!" reactions from people too. People acting like somehow the director, actors, editors, post production, producers and tech artists made it that way as a mistake.
@@Skiivin An absurd amount of screen time was given to the two leads in the film (Hiddleston and Larson), implying that we were expected to care for their characters but they were the most hollow characters in the story. It's weak writing.
@@ComedyBros5 I would argue they play the everyman characters that are a stand-in for the audience and the real lead is John C Reilley, and I’d say they succeed at being written to react to things how anyone in the audience would. Besides it’s more about the events that take place on the island and the journey than it is a character study of anyone in the cast
Something I greatly appreciated in this movie is that most of the CGI heavy scenes (by which I mean, the monster scenes) are in daylight. What I mean by that is, a lot of these CGI heavy blockbusters, including Godzilla 2014, have their big set piece moments in the dark. I assume it's to save some time and money by having an OK model and the darkness is hiding the flaws. In this movie, there's only two scenes where the monsters are in darkness: when Kong meets Tom and Brie, and immediately following that where he's off to attack Sam L Jackson. EVERY OTHER SCENE it's light out, and it was just a nice change of pace from what felt like every other movie trying to hide things.
The most unbelievable part about this movie with giant monsters is that when John C Reilley went home, he wasn't greeted at the door by her husband of 10 years and 2 other kids while they all stand there awkwardly.
“Overdosed on MCU quippy snark” This 10000%. I rewatched Pacific Rim the other day and it was refreshing how straight everyone plays it (with the exception of the doctors and Hannibal Chow, all of whom are perfect).
The moment where Brie Larson is trying to lift some wreckage off an animal and Kong just magically appears is hilarious to me. Makes me laugh everytime, cos it's just like, suddenly, KONG! He's surprisingly sneaky for a giant monster xD
You genuinely believe he's gonna be a hero at first. The fact that his explosion in the air is so violent as well.... You can't help but burst out laughing.
In true “You didn’t mention this” fashion, I can’t let them get away with this… John C Reilly’s boat is named “Grey Fox” as a nod to the Metal Gear Solid character. Jordan Vogt-Roberts is currently attached to direct the Metal Gear Solid movie. Incidentally, his likeness was used for a character in Death Stranding which was created by Hideo Kojima, who created the Metal Gear franchise.
I love Godzilla but personally I think this is the best of the Monsterverse movies. Probably because it doesn’t cut away to characters doing boring shit constantly and stays confined to the action on the island.
I'll never forget watching this film in the cinema with my mate. When he fell into the rusty ship we both turned to each other and whispered "mecha Kong" and we both burst out laughing.
2:49 the imagery alone Mason😂 but no that is honestly one of the best parts of the movie, Kong's breathe from his nose bringing up all the dust? So good
I don't understand anyone's mind behind complaining that you guys talk too much. That is literally what I'm here for. Your rapport is the entertainment. That and James occasionally having a meltdown over something anyway. Absolutely hilarious when that happens. There are thousands of channels that talk about the same stuff you do, you're the the reason I listen.
I've been detecting some subtle, ignorant right-wing anti woke BS in some of their comments these past few months. Makes sense they would get on that grift.
Definitely the best/most fun of the Monsterverse, really sticks with you how brutal it is for PG-13. Saw this in the cinema, a lady sitting near me was audibly traumatized at every gory death... It was wonderful!
2:23 Andy Serkis: "Help, I'm being sucked off by these monsters!" Archer: "Heh heh...phrasing." 5:16: "You get bloody sucked off by this creature!" Archer: "Hey! Phrasing!"
You cut out my favourite joke that was in the full podcast, where James mentions the “giant tiger with antlers” and then the “giant ant”…and I held my breath, willing Maso to say it and he did, adding timidly: “with tiglers….??”
Did you know that during the scene where Tom Hiddleston used the gas mask and the sword to fight the flying creatures, Tom has said he used a bushido blade learning from an old swordsman trained to be a samurai on how to wield it one handed. The swordsman is on record as saying Tom learned the way of the samurai, even mastering his technique but what was most impressive to the samurai was Toms ability to freestyle into his own sword style that was fast, violent and yet elegant in nature. When asked what Tom had named this style the samurai, with fear in his eyes, struggled to make out the words at first but eventually yelled “BLUE HARVEST”.
I never thought people viewed ‘Cinema Sins/Win’ as actual film criticism, I just always saw it as one guy’s opinion of a film and taking the viewer over what he liked or disliked.
Man, fuck this movie. I worked in a movie theater when this movie came out, and the theater would let employees go to shows that had seat availability for free. I wasn’t too excited for this movie but I caught it like 2 weeks after it came out. A coworker (the one who smells and cannot stop listening to themselves talk) shows up to the screening, sits next to me, and says “I know you’re going to love this movie, I’ve seen it like 8 times!” He then proceeds to quote every fucking line of the movie before the line was said. If he fucked up a line he’d either say “that’s what I said” or “I guess we missed that one, huh, champ?” He fucking slapped me on the shoulder over and over again while pointing at the screen when the dinosaur tail-slaps that guy into the cliff. I know it’s not fair to hold this movie accountable, but something has to hold the guilt of that experience and he’s sure as shit not going to.
Confront them infront of others about ther behavior and poor hygiene. Don't be mean or rude, just do it infront of others in a respectful way. It will absolutely force this person to actually think about what you are telling them, and they will be better off for it. Nobody tells these types of people the truth, so they continue making an ass out of themselves. So it is your duty, to save them from themselves, and let them bathe in light and truth instead of darkness and stench. Just my two cents Not that you can do any of this now, but that's irrelevant, as your story is a good example for others to learn from. Don't let that behavior persist if it bothers you. Let it be known but respectfully so that we can create a better social climate through honest constructive communication, even if it means telling some sperg to shut the hell up for once and take a shower.
This film is incredible. I saw it on the same day I saw Logan (Kong in the morning, lunch, Logan in the afternoon) and was fully expecting Logan to be the film of the day. While I did enjoy Logan, I wouldn't shut up about how great Kong was for weeks. You guys talked about how it feels like a Jurassic Park film in many ways and I couldn't agree more. It has that same sense of danger and focus that the first Jurassic Park had. Keeping the action locked in on the groups on the island and keeping the setting grisly, weird and creative.
The most significant takeaway from this film was going into an early morning screening with my big brother that had brought me the ticket. Being a huge fan of the 2005 version I was very eager to enjoy the spectacle of “Big Girolla Smash🦍”but made the grave error to had taken a sentimental hat to this screening. Through all the on-screen carnage I had forgotten to get it back after setting it down to the seat next to me. I never got it back. That is all. Thank you.🙏
One thing I really appreciate about you guys is that the videogame jokes actually feel genuine and not like some weird embarrassed attempt at relating to the youtube audience.
During his twitter ‘rant’ against cinema sins, Jordan made a point to talk about the great difficulties his team went through to finish the film. Locations used and the lighting on set played havoc with the cameras they used, causing footage captured to have a strangely blue hue. The let to Jordan deciding on the working title of “Blue Harvest”. Significant amounts of post production time was dedicated to colour correcting the film.
Never saw the full version of this but a friend of mine took me down to Legendary Studios for an early screening before reshoots. Got to tour the studio before the movie and see the monster models they had for Godzilla and Kong. You get a piece of paper at the start to write down problems you had with the movie. Most of the movie was complete outside of 15% of effects. From what I've heard they did change all the problems I had in reshoots like how shoehorned in the tease for Godzilla vs Kong was. Wasn't long after this that my friend got fired along with most the American employees as China absorbed Legendary. Still have the free shirts I got.
Sometimes my brain starts to melt with the weirdly Canadian references in the edits. I start to think there's somemodern commercial connection between Canada and Australia that I'm unaware of. And then I remember that Ben is from Canada and everything makes sense again
Shocked that you didn't mention that the director Jordan Vogt-Roberts was also in Hideo Kojima's game "Death Stranding" as a character just named "The Movie Director." Kojima is obviously a fan of Kong: Skull Island lol.
1. Your funniest video, guys. Multiple LOLs. The Southpark-style cutouts were hilarious every time. 2. Effing GREAT movie. Like, miles above the rest of the 'zilla kong lot.
“It’s Jurassic Park” 😂 that’s literally how my mom and stepdad pitched the movie to me before I saw it LMAO I LOVE this movie. They really outdid themselves with the VFX. Made Godzilla:King of Monsters look like a bit of a flop as far as writing. Cant wait to see you guys cover *Godzilla vs Kong*

Nobody tells these types of people the truth, so they continue making an ass out of themselves. So it is your duty, to save them from themselves, and let them bathe in light and truth instead of darkness and stench. Just my two cents
Not that you can do any of this now, but that's irrelevant, as your story is a good example for others to learn from. Don't let that behavior persist if it bothers you. Let it be known but respectfully so that we can create a better social climate through honest constructive communication, even if it means telling some sperg to shut the hell up for once and take a shower.
This film is incredible. I saw it on the same day I saw Logan (Kong in the morning, lunch, Logan in the afternoon) and was fully expecting Logan to be the film of the day. While I did enjoy Logan, I wouldn't shut up about how great Kong was for weeks. You guys talked about how it feels like a Jurassic Park film in many ways and I couldn't agree more. It has that same sense of danger and focus that the first Jurassic Park had. Keeping the action locked in on the groups on the island and keeping the setting grisly, weird and creative.
Can we please bring back the guy that yells “Rodney” for the trivia section? 🙏🏼
The Giant Tiger reference filled my heart with joy
I’m going bananas over this series!!!
A Giant Tiger reference in Caravan of Garbage, what a time to be alive 🇨🇦
the Japanese pilot in the cold open is the rock musician Miyavi, i found that out and it blew my mind. so cool, Miyavi is a rock god
I also love seeing Thomas Mann in this. A young actor who has yet to really break out, but I've enjoyed watching his career.
The most significant takeaway from this film was going into an early morning screening with my big brother that had brought me the ticket. Being a huge fan of the 2005 version I was very eager to enjoy the spectacle of “Big Girolla Smash🦍”but made the grave error to had taken a sentimental hat to this screening. Through all the on-screen carnage I had forgotten to get it back after setting it down to the seat next to me. I never got it back. That is all. Thank you.🙏
The post credits of this movie is the most excited ive ever been in a cinema
The whole sub plot of them looking for Toby Kebbel's character, radioing him, then him getting instantly eaten. *Chef's Kiss*
10:45 he's just on the couch by himself 😂🤣 I never noticed that, I think I just clocked out lol but that is hilarous
One thing I really appreciate about you guys is that the videogame jokes actually feel genuine and not like some weird embarrassed attempt at relating to the youtube audience.
During his twitter ‘rant’ against cinema sins, Jordan made a point to talk about the great difficulties his team went through to finish the film. Locations used and the lighting on set played havoc with the cameras they used, causing footage captured to have a strangely blue hue. The let to Jordan deciding on the working title of “Blue Harvest”. Significant amounts of post production time was dedicated to colour correcting the film.
I’m enjoying the boys giving the episode live from skull island, Truly commitment to the craft.
I do watch these specifically for Ben and Other's edits. I particularly like the image of gnome flashing its buttocks. hilarious
Always enjoy seeing Shea Whigham randomly pop up in films.
Kong skull island deserves more respect and love because it’s a true masterpiece
No 2005 Peter jackson is a true masterpiece. This one is a monster movie.
@@alexanderguerrero347 that’s your opinion but ok good for you. I’m keeping my opinion
Never saw the full version of this but a friend of mine took me down to Legendary Studios for an early screening before reshoots. Got to tour the studio before the movie and see the monster models they had for Godzilla and Kong. You get a piece of paper at the start to write down problems you had with the movie. Most of the movie was complete outside of 15% of effects. From what I've heard they did change all the problems I had in reshoots like how shoehorned in the tease for Godzilla vs Kong was. Wasn't long after this that my friend got fired along with most the American employees as China absorbed Legendary. Still have the free shirts I got.
I made this video. I do the voices of both James and Maso who are fictional characters that I invented.
Also I did all the editing myself.
7:00 also that bad doctor doom you mentioned earlier 😅 what an unexpected glow up
Sometimes my brain starts to melt with the weirdly Canadian references in the edits. I start to think there's somemodern commercial connection between Canada and Australia that I'm unaware of. And then I remember that Ben is from Canada and everything makes sense again
Thanks Ben for the deep Canadian cut with giant Tiger
There was also an alternative ending where Kong finds shorts, suspenders, a bow tie, and a hat
Oh so that's why it's called Blue Harvest.
Shocked that you didn't mention that the director Jordan Vogt-Roberts was also in Hideo Kojima's game "Death Stranding" as a character just named "The Movie Director."
Kojima is obviously a fan of Kong: Skull Island lol.
“He’s not just a greasy wizard”
Pretty goddamned good
lost it at the cigarette ding.
Wow. As a father, MASON, that John C Reilly scene where he reunites with his family bloody got me.
Imo this is the best film out of the monster verse franchise
Young john rileys character has "for your health" on the back of his leather jacket.
You just know he’s been fantasizing about doing the Akira slide the entire team he’s been on that island
Love the idea of the two mo-cap guys with one on top of the others shoulders. 😂 these guys are great!
The only.monsterverse movie to get the human element right..
“Blurk and yuck” - James’ reaction to Maso’s mention of Mighty Joe Young 😂
That’s my new catchphrase 😎
This movie really is the most fun out of the bunch imo, and damn i forgot about that tail whip
12:27 Unexpected Super Mario 64 in the BGM here 👍🏾👌🏾
Snake with arms flipping Maso off lol
I laughed really hard when the question “have the cubs won the World Series ?” Was asked.
Funny thing is that the movie was filmed before the 2016 World Series.
1. Your funniest video, guys. Multiple LOLs. The Southpark-style cutouts were hilarious every time.
2. Effing GREAT movie. Like, miles above the rest of the 'zilla kong lot.
“It’s Jurassic Park”
😂 that’s literally how my mom and stepdad pitched the movie to me before I saw it LMAO
I LOVE this movie. They really outdid themselves with the VFX.
Made Godzilla:King of Monsters look like a bit of a flop as far as writing.
Cant wait to see you guys cover *Godzilla vs Kong*
