Movies

You know you're on weak ground when your argument is "but this is how it was in an Emmerich film".

Posted by: RogerMore on Sep 11, 17:17 in response to RamsFan2004's post Emmerich's version showed nuclear tests in French...

IIRC in the original movies, it was a prehistoric monster awakened by nuclear tests. And in the current incarnation (which is what counts here) it was prehistoric.

SKULL ISLAND stock page still lists Uni as studio. WB is the new studioffor this movie. {nm} eallensbp Sep 10, 16:20

Patience. It's not official yet. The release date could also be up in the air. {nm} Antibody Sep 10, 16:25

V: Legendary is planning on moving [SKULN] from Universal to Warner Bros. Sources close to the situation say while this is not a done deal. Antibody Sep 10, 16:28

It is a huge surprise. Legendary got the Godzilla rights (not WB), and Legendary can make the Godzilla VS King Kong movie for Universal {nm} Peterlee Sep 10, 16:55

my mistake.... V states that Warner Bros own the Godzilla sequel rights {nm} Peterlee Sep 10, 16:56

tale o' the tape: Godzilla is like several hundred feet taller than Kong, to scale {nm} slipping jimmy Sep 10, 17:01

King Kong ain't got nothin' on me! {nm} tealfan Sep 10, 17:09

That's what I looked up after reading this. 2014's Godzilla is about 350ft tall. Biggest King King so far was 70ft tall {nm} MattW Sep 10, 17:11

Maybe Kong will step in the same ooze as Godzilla and grow. Who's the say the new skull island isn't in the pacific? {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 10, 17:13

Godzilla is an ancient creature, not a mutated iguana. {nm} Antibody Sep 10, 18:03

Wasn't the original godzilla irradiated by atomic bombs in WWII? {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 10, 18:25

I can't remember if the original Japanese Godzilla movies ever gave a definitive origin for The Lizard. {nm} DTravel Sep 11, 12:14

Emmerich's version showed nuclear tests in French Polynesia as the cause of its mutation into Godzilla {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 11, 16:50

Hee hee. And I'll note that I said "the original Japanese Godzilla movies". :) {nm} DTravel Sep 14, 15:10

That didn't stop the first Godzilla vs. King Kong movie Antibody Sep 10, 18:06
