@@lutherheggs451 First off, learn wtf is whataboutism. You don't know what it is. No, you fucking don't, don't even try to say you do, it is offensively clear you don't. Just tossing buzzwords you think are strong doesn't reinforce your "point", it just shows you're trying to pull a thought terminating cliche and you aren't good at it either. Second. Nice of you to go all aggressive and insulting to make a "point" out of the blue. Almost sounds like you think being assertive makes things true and and an argument. It doesn't. Third, I don't give a fuck what Toho said OUTSIDE THE MOVIE. They can be as assertive as they want outside the movie and it still won't change what is in the movie. And what is in the movie isn't as definitive as they want to say, and as you for some reason have a strong emotional attachment to it being. Take your life insecurities to a therapist, we ain't your parents. Fourth, gtfo of the web and learn to talk with other people. It is okay to go outside, just keep your distance and wear a mask. Learn how to communicate like a half functional human, and then you're worth talking with.
@@louisvictor3473 "maybe he is high tailing after Godzilla mistook him for dead" Kong is swimming AWFULLY slowly to be high-tailing it out of there... According to writer Shinichi Sekizawa, whatever happened, Godzilla was knocked unconscious and remained so until the typhoon washed him ashore in "Mothra vs. Godzilla" (Sekizawa also used this concept for his unproduced sequel script, "Continuation: King Kong vs. Godzilla").
I mean, Kong was a sympathetic character and Godzilla was still an allegory for the A bomb at this point as this was only his third film. So yeah, it actually does make sense for Japan to support the monke at this time if you look at the context.
@@dubuyajay9964 No, the point is that Godzilla was only 8 years old, while King Kong was already 29 years old. King Kong was much more established in people's minds than Godzilla, so at that time King Kong was still more popular, but it didn't take long for that to change.
Fun Fact: In KOTM original story, Gamera was supposed to be in this movie but ended up not being in the film. So technically Brandon's Joke about the "alternate ending" was what the future of the monsterverse was like if Gamera was in it.
I think it's fun to consider that Godzilla got far more fame thanks to a crossover with Kong, and the Monsterverse now has given a push to them both. Especially since it gave the first American movie where Kong doesn't die.
Oh, hell, when they're on the island handing out cigarettes to the natives and talking about how good it is that they're all smoking is one of the most hilarious things ever. Then, when the kid comes up to them demanding a cigarette, "Oh, your mommy!", then, they give him one, LOL!
At the end of the movie "Godzilla vs. Kong": Godzilla is ready to blast Kong with his atomic breath, Kong is ready to throw his axe but from outtanowhere Gamera appears and hits both with an RKO.
Gamera grabs Kong rko’s him snaps his neck blasts Godzilla does a back flip behind him rips of one of his dorsal fins and stabs him in the back with it then as Godzilla is on the ground gamera starts spinning and shoots his blast making i giant saw and grinds the saw into Godzilla’s back killing him just a theory

King Kong was like Hulk Hogan...He wouldn't sell Godzilla's moves and he wouldn't take the loss. But even though Kong tried to kill Godzilla's push, fans got him over anyway.
Love the recap xD Video was great overall and very pumped for the new one. Hey, would you consider The Hitcher 2: I've Been Waiting a cult film? It would be a great way to riff on some crazy Busey acting :)
This is what gets me about the ending, they contradict themselves three movies later. So Kong and Godzilla fall into the water, only Kong surfaces, so this means Kong won...fast forward to Godzilla vs Monster Zero, Godzilla, Rodan, and Ghidorah all fall into the water, Ghidorah surfaces and flies away yet this is still considered a victory for Godzilla and Rodan.
Ehhh... it's not the same thing, even though it seems like it is. In Japan, winning or losing is determined by if you accomplished the goal or not. It doesn't even matter to them if you're killed or not. What was Godzilla and Rodan's goal in "Monster Zero"? To expel Ghidorah from the earth. They accomplished that, so as far as the Japanese are concerned, Godzilla and Rodan won the battle. What was Kong's goal in "King Kong vs. Godzilla"? To beat Godzilla's ass and go home. Kong did one and is doing the other at the end of the movie, so he won. So, it's not a contradiction as far as Japanese sensibilities (which, of course, these films are made for) are concerned.
Godzilla being vulnerable to electricity would actually make sense, because as an aquatic creature, Godzilla’s skin probably contains a lot of moisture, which means it conducts electricity.
@@dubuyajay9964 I'm always up for voice action but based on what other TH-camrs more successful than have shared, MIB is extremely selective about who comes onto his show and really hates it when names are recommended to him or when people request to do voice work, probably due to the popularity of his skits and the related feedback.
This review has been one prolonged justification for me buying the Criterion Godzilla set, because I don't think I can survive the American cut of King Kong vs. Godzilla lol.
Awesome follow-up. Like I said in "Part 1", this was the first "Godzilla" movie I had on VHS when I was a kid. Gonne need to re-watch this movie, as well as marathon the "Monsterverse" movies to prepare for the new movie, which I will NOT be streaming, but seeing in the Theater (hopefully). Oh, gotta throw this one in again, just for the hell of it, "Do Not Go To Hokkaido!"
Awesome two parter dude this made me think about how far has Godzilla and the Kaiju franchise has come so far with where we’re at now again with Godzilla vs Kong. It’s definitely gonna be wonders to watch Godzilla and Kong together again on the big screen for sure.
It is kind of amusing how the new movie has some callbacks to this one. Like how this hints at an ancient battle between Godzilla and Kong, when that's a major plot point of the new one. There's a moment when Kong jams his axe handle down Godzilla's throat, which I found funny as a callback to the tree scene. You could even say that shocking Kong to restart his heart was a callback to the electrical powers in this movie. The new movie feels a lot like the "fun" era of kaiju films, where things didn't really have to make that much sense or be too serious, in the grand scheme of things the stakes in the new film are really low.
Honestly, unless there's a scene where Dr. Graham turns up alive, and pissed at everyone for leaving her in Antarctica, I think I'm sitting this one out. Still having PTSD flashbacks...
That monster island buddies part got my brain turning. I remembered years ago when I binge watched every single episode of monster island buddies. So so many memories, flooding back. Now I wanna do it again but like hell I'm gonna.
I'd be interested to know your take on the Japanese cut over the American. The original cut's lack of the po-faced news scenes means there's more room for establishing the comedic characters so there's less of a juxtaposition. While you call the comedy "dated" it has an emphasis on manipulative advertising and short sighted corporate greed, which are pretty evergreen concepts. There's also language barrier stuff: Mr Tako's name means "Octopus" in Japanese. Just as he sends his two men to mess with the island, an actual giant octopus does the same thing. A little bit more of the dry but absurd Japanese humour they love so much.
My understanding is it's also a heightened example of the "Salaryman comedy", a genre that was extremely popular in Japan but AFAIK never really exported. The movie plays with a bunch of tropes from that genre.
@@dubuyajay9964 Yes, Tadao Takashima and Yu Fujiki were the top stars of salaryman comedies as Suzanne mentioned. Ichiro Arishima was indeed also a famous comedian in Japan.
There is a prequel comic based on the remake where Godzilla did visit Skull Island and I think Kong was fighting a Female M.U.T.O at the time before fighting Godzilla.
I am so happy this was in my recommendations because you are so entertaining. I look forward to exploring the plethora of content you have made. I have a tiny attention span. If whatever I am watching is not engrossing in the first minute I move on but I am suprised almost every video is intelligent and witty with subjects that have not been repeated by every other youtuber. Thank you so very much. You are so appreciated.

The new movie feels a lot like the "fun" era of kaiju films, where things didn't really have to make that much sense or be too serious, in the grand scheme of things the stakes in the new film are really low.
"¿ves? Te dije que no te la ibas a acabar."
Okay, this is the Brandon Tenold that got me hooked on his channel. Bravo!
Honestly, unless there's a scene where Dr. Graham turns up alive, and pissed at everyone for leaving her in Antarctica, I think I'm sitting this one out. Still having PTSD flashbacks...
What?
That monster island buddies part got my brain turning. I remembered years ago when I binge watched every single episode of monster island buddies. So so many memories, flooding back. Now I wanna do it again but like hell I'm gonna.
I'd be interested to know your take on the Japanese cut over the American. The original cut's lack of the po-faced news scenes means there's more room for establishing the comedic characters so there's less of a juxtaposition. While you call the comedy "dated" it has an emphasis on manipulative advertising and short sighted corporate greed, which are pretty evergreen concepts.
There's also language barrier stuff: Mr Tako's name means "Octopus" in Japanese. Just as he sends his two men to mess with the island, an actual giant octopus does the same thing. A little bit more of the dry but absurd Japanese humour they love so much.
Wasn't the mustache guy a famous Japanese comedian and the two male leads a manzai sketch duo?
My understanding is it's also a heightened example of the "Salaryman comedy", a genre that was extremely popular in Japan but AFAIK never really exported. The movie plays with a bunch of tropes from that genre.
@@dubuyajay9964 Yes, Tadao Takashima and Yu Fujiki were the top stars of salaryman comedies as Suzanne mentioned. Ichiro Arishima was indeed also a famous comedian in Japan.
@@ConstantineFurman So a starring cast, just one you usually not expect in a Godzilla or Kong film?
Is there a negative of the original? I heard it's been lost.
MIB and Brandon Tenold?
Now that's a match right there! :) Excellent callab guys! :)
We need a Alien vs Godzilla and a Predator vs King Kong double feature 🤣
Great stuff! I love your channel! Keep up the Great work
Kong won on Godzilla’s turf. Now Godzilla will win on Kong’s
There is a prequel comic based on the remake where Godzilla did visit Skull Island and I think Kong was fighting a Female M.U.T.O at the time before fighting Godzilla.
"Oh man, I really gotta lay off the Soma" is particularly funny because Soma is a real drug, a muscle relaxer.
10/10 for that recap!
That intro was spot on lol this is why I love this channel.
If king doesn’t shove a tree down Godzilla’s throat in the new one I quit
I am so happy this was in my recommendations because you are so entertaining. I look forward to exploring the plethora of content you have made. I have a tiny attention span. If whatever I am watching is not engrossing in the first minute I move on but I am suprised almost every video is intelligent and witty with subjects that have not been repeated by every other youtuber. Thank you so very much. You are so appreciated.
Is Godzilla an Orphan?
TeamGodzilla
Wait King Kong Vs Little Orphan Annie?... Simpsons did it.... Season IV, Tree house of terror III, King homer on his rampage eats Shirly Temple
Yeah, and Paul Bunyan fought Rodan.
@@gabrielboorom6196 Which one of us is the story telling hobo?
#SimpsonsDidItFirst
@@restionSerpentine As long as you're not a stabbing hobo.
Is Shirley Temple an orphan?
I love the idea of you and MIB cooperating in a video
2:48 Where did you get that King Kong Figure?
If Kong wanted to fight an orphan, he should've fought Batman.
The American scenes in a nutshell:
MaPp!
You missed a great opportunity for a futurama reference with that electricity addiction thing.
I stand by my "Crank: High Voltage" reference
Since Godzilla is a hundred times the size of a T-Rex wouldn't his brain be larger.?
I have been waiting SOOO LONG for this!
Personally I would've preferred the movie ending with Godzilla's decapitated head winking at the audience, indicating that neither side won.
You know that's the ending to Freddy vs Jason where Jason is holding Freddie's decapitated head while coming out from the lake when the camera shows Freddie's decapitated head winking to the audience
@@ciscovaiese7535 That's the joke
@@ciscovaiese7535 ...you're a little slow on the mental draw, aren't you
@@jamesduncan6729 no I get the reference I was just explaining what the reference is
You got Monster Island Buddies for your intro?! MUH'FUGGIN QUALITY!!!
I love that Kaiju toy intro. Just as great as the one from DESTROY ALL MONSTERS review.
haha those little skits were funny man,good video.
09:30. I believe ArtSpear Entertainment had a BRILLIANT "Let them fight" scene. XD
You know, I actually thank you and MIB should just remake all the Godzilla movies in that format.
Last Saturday, I saw King Kong vs Godzilla on TH-cam, and it's one of my favorite Godzilla movie of the 1960s.
If you can afford it, please get the Godzilla Criterion Bluray Collection.
Hahaha MIB and Brandon is the Best Godzilla comedy duo 😂😂😂🤣
And This was a great review keep it up!.
Perfect timing seeing as Godzilla vs King Kong is coming out this weekend 🙌 😎
Who else is excited 4 its release
Right here!
You crossed over with MIB!!! This had to happen!!!!! The best crossover!
Brandon in thumbnail: King Kong thunderbolt
Best opening with Monster Island Buddies as it is my childhood lol
9:37 That dub actor sure makes "Fujita" sound like "Vegeta."
When I first started watching DBZ, I legit thought Vegeta's name was "Prince Fujita."
@@ConstantineFurman
King Kong to Vegeta
" I WAS A GIANT MONKEY BEFORE ANIME!!! "
;3
That recap was freaking amazing
9:37 Did he say Vegeta?
the lost sequel to Bambi meets Godzilla we never know we need... King Kong vs Little Orphan Annie
For those wondering what Godzilla says at 16:44
"See? I told you that you weren't gonna finish it all!
Best recap ever, seriously, almost spat my drink out.
