I always loved that they chose to add a Cave Bear as one of the prehistoric fauna on Skull Island, it shows that it’s not just a haven for dinosaurs but prehistoric mammals as well.
I actually enjoyed this film despite its rushed production. OK the story isn't as good as the first film, but its an entertaining little film, more comedic though. This is a great sequence and I believe one of the Kong puppets was 'refurred' to make the little fella.
This is the kind of movie that I'd consider as "I like but everyone else hates". I like how Kiko can do things all by himself, proving that he indeed does not need the helps of his parents. Also, the ending scene of this movie is REALLY DARK. Kiko actually shouts "mommy" while the Skull Island is sinking, knowing that his mom doesn't exist anymore, as he's the last of his kind. This is a really dark way to end a 'childish' sequel
@@koopapoopypanya9485 Well, Godzilla Jr. pretty much fought his own 1-on-1 battle with Destroyah on his own and he almost died once by being dropped on a building and blasted, so G Jr's okay.
Willis O'Brien & the RKO art dept made the best jungle scenes I've ever seen in a movie! The layering, the undergrowth, and the lighting techniques between each plane of the jungle settings are still better than anything made today! Skull Island just looks like the most amazing prehistoric jungle setting ever. Peter Jackson attempted to recreate it in 2005, but even he ultimately failed also. He was correct about the formula being the Doré style dark-to-light foreground lighting, and painted mattes in the background. But he forgot one important element: the perma-canopy. The consistent width of the vine-choked tree trunks & the consistent height of their branches created a "tunnel effect"; giving viewers the impression that this deep, dark jungle just stretched onwards into infinity. The reason the 1933 Skull Island looks so fantastic is because it looks like someone took a giant boring rig that you'd use to tunnel through mountains or bedrock, but used it on this dense, claustrophobic jungle island instead. You can't achieve the same effect that RKO did by using normal jungle trees & bushes the way the 1976, 2005, and 2017 (Kong: Skull Island) movies did. You have to tailor them to the camera as well by making the trees gigantic also. Until Hollywood rediscovers this lost knowledge, we will never see this same unique jungle setting in a movie duplicated, unfortunately.
2005 ultimately failed? Absolutely not. It recreated this exact look faithfully and pulled off using practicals. The depth you speak is present in many shots. I do agree on Skull Island 2017, the jungle was weak.
In defense of kong:skull island it wasn’t meant to be a remake of the original like in 1976 and 2005 And it’s environment was meant to be more similar to Vietnam since the movie had a more Vietnam war tone (heck parts of it were even filmed in Vietnam alongside Australia and Hawaii)
The Giant bear, stills surprising me. Despite about Dinosaurs, reptiles and Giant insects with tentacles, Kong and his Son were not the only mammals. I'm happy about it.
I love how theres a deep lore to Kong’s species and their history on Skull Island in most versions and we accept giant apes with dinosaurs. And then theres just this fucking giant bear like “oh hai guys”.
This is one of the scenes of Son of Kong movie. It's same size with Mighty Joe. Son of Kong fighting cave bear. The cave bears releated to grizzly bears and modern brown bears it's bigger than today's biggest bear the polar bear. In first round Son of Kong wins the fight by knocking adult cave bear and in second round cave bear gives up. Son of Kong almost knocked out when cave bear pushed him to rocks when he falled on his back.
Now they had dinosaurs on skull island with giant insects & bats from the 2005 film of king kong, and they had a giant snake in animated musical of the mighty kong (1998). But now they have a cave bear.
That is cool. But, before special effects, they used models of creatures made up of substances. Then, the ones who made that, they animate it by using a camera. After, they make it look like it's real. But, the creatures only use it for a few frames. I still like how awesome the video was. Thank you!
He planned a project called "The Last of the Oso Si-Papu", which involved a huge bear like creature. A model and a few watercolour concept paintings were made, but nothing else.
Man if Baby Kong had managed to kill that bear and if the island hadn't sunk at the end of the movie that bear would have made one hell of a bear skin rug.
And other thing is why they didn't done new Son of Kong movie. The guy who made 2005 King Kong movie should done new Son of Kong movie and every King Kong and monster movie fans will think how is looks like or finds out this classic Son of Kong movie, 1933 King Kong movie and 2005 King Kong movie with new Son of Kong movie if they did make one.
That was so nice of the bear to not take advantage of kong jr hitting his head on the rock. Instead of finishing him off he let him come back to his senses and get up.
SON OF KONG was whipped out in the latter of 1933, the same year as KING KONG was released. Restricted by a smaller budget than its predecessor, scriptwriter Ruth Rose (scriptwriter for KING KONG and producer/director Ernest Schoedsack’s wife) was encouraged to write a lighter ‘serio-comedy’ that could be released theatrically by the end of the year while the going was hot. Special effects pioneer and stop-motion animator Willis O’Brien, disheartened by the comedic direction that the film had taken (along with other various reasons), requested that his name be removed from the credits. During filming, O’Brien’s wife shot their two sons and then turned the gun on herself. Her suicide attempt failed, but their sons died from their wounds. There is a famous publicity photograph of O’Brien that was taken, on insistence of Merian C. Cooper, on the same day that he learned of the murder/suicide, that he promptly ripped to pieces. The photo was retrieved by a set worker, taped together (samples of this photo found on the internet have, the tear lines digitally repaired, but the ‘Scotch taped’ version exists in books). You can see the devastating anguish on his face, and this is why Kong’s son flips the bird; it’s intended for Cooper. Though he’s never referred to by name in the film, Kong’s son is famously known as Kiko (the words ‘king’ and ‘Kong’ combined). Actor Robert Armstrong, who portrayed film producer Carl Denham in both films, has stated that he enjoyed working in SON OF KONG more than the original, as Denham’s character was more fully developed and given a love interest. The Styracosaur was the same stop-motion model (sculpted by Mexican artist Marcel Delgado) that was used in a deleted scene in KING KONG, that chased the sailors onto the log before Kong shook them off into the ravine. The sea serpent was a refurbished version of the mechanical sauropod model used in the swamp scene in KING KONG. Kiko, himself, was built from one of the armatures of Kong. Stop-motion animator Pete Peterson did most of the hands-on animation, and later worked with O’Brien on the film THE BLACK SCORPION. Some of the creature models used in the famously lost ‘spider pit scene’ from KING KONG also appear in THE BLACK SCORPION. KING KONG, SON OF KONG and MIGHTY JOE YOUNG were aired annually on Thanksgiving day back in the ‘70s. Taken on its own merits, SON OF KONG is a highly entertaining film!
No remake would ever top the original,pal the original 1933 king kong is still the best version,dont care what the cost of all the remakes where their is no comparison,but you just dont see this,all in all the acting, music score, scenery was remarkable considering that sound movies had been out for less than 5 years.you made a dumb opinion,sometimes its better not to say anything than to sound foolish hungfao.
I always loved that they chose to add a Cave Bear as one of the prehistoric fauna on Skull Island, it shows that it’s not just a haven for dinosaurs but prehistoric mammals as well.
Yeah, it cool, but I would like to see also glyptodon, megatherium and deinotherium.
Maybe in a future MonsterVerse film, Suko will fight a bear-like creature to pay homage to this scene.
I love how Kong Jr. just kind of starts talking to them after he knocks the Bear out
It look ridiculous and cute at the same time.
"Oh my hand....look guys I got em! Everything is under contro...ohhhh shit *bear attacks*"
He was asking Denham why he was standing there like an idiot and not shooting the damn bear with the rifle in his hand!
😆
Kinda like He’s explaining the situation
I actually enjoyed this film despite its rushed production. OK the story isn't as good as the first film, but its an entertaining little film, more comedic though. This is a great sequence and I believe one of the Kong puppets was 'refurred' to make the little fella.
I liked how kiko was using real world mma to fight here, it was kinda cool
That's mostly based on Willis O'Brien's own experiences as a fighter.

My only problem with the movie is that the "Son of Kong" part of the movie didn't happen until the last 20 minutes.

I never did understand that comment since Denham never saw Kong fight in the great first movie.

The best jungle scenes in any movie has to be Predator 1987

Yeah. I'd like to see this movie remade by Peter Jackson.
This pretty much summarizes a Gorilla vs Bear fight the people wanted
I love that little Kong showed no fear and took on a bigger opponent.
This was always one of my favorite giant animal fights ever. And he used an arm-bar on the bear to get him to submit. Cool stuff!
It look like at one point he was trying to get the bear in a Kumra .
This wasn't a fight it was a giant struggle cuddle

1:02: I like this scene because when Kiko is stunned, he just has derpy eyes.
I love how Denham just stands there with a rifle and just watches the cave bear overpower Kiko.
The bear sound at 0:28 - 0:33 was later used in two Disney films for a bear fight, "Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier" and "Old Yeller".
1:00 and the bear hug was born....
That bear was on its hind legs. If you see a bear on its hind legs, it means they’re very angry.
I like it when the people just stare at them
I was caught off guard by that brief moment of slapstick comedy. They usually play these fights quite seriously.
So I'm here after the announcement for the new ''The Son of Kong'' movie.
He would make his father proud
I love how theres a deep lore to Kong’s species and their history on Skull Island in most versions and we accept giant apes with dinosaurs. And then theres just this fucking giant bear like “oh hai guys”.

When he hits his head, that was funny haha haha haha XD
I like how they just stand there and watch like. 😯 😯
Love the way KIKO used UFC moves to beat that bear down.
This is UFC stop motion style!!!!
What a great friend the guy holding the rifle is.
Now they had dinosaurs on skull island with giant insects & bats from the 2005 film of king kong, and they had a giant snake in animated musical of the mighty kong (1998). But now they have a cave bear.
A fun thoroughly entertaining little movie .. tho it takes it's time getting to Skull Island
The only exemple of a fight between a gorilla and a bear
Well my mother in law is as big as a gorilla and her sister is as hairy as a bear and they fight all the time at buffet tables.
I hope you know that the outcome would be much Different in real life
