Kong Skull Island

>>84564583
you thought it was shit

Great Adventure movie. You got hyped for the Legendary Kaijuniverse.

You thought it had moments where it looked gorgeous visually (look at what Larry Fong can do when he's not being ruined by Snyder) but it was ultimately dull and soulless.

>>84564583
a squandering of what could have been a good movie to follow a bunch of characters that do NOTHING and serve no purpose other than being there for the after credits scene to sell us a GvK movie "sometime" later.

Other words a waste of time.

It had some good ideas in it.

>>84564583
You thought you should kill yourself for being a meme-loving faggot.

>>84564583
why were the asian girl and black guy even in it?

>>84564583
it's truly awful

Haha he's called Conrad like the writer of Heart of Darkness Joseph Conrad which Apocalypse Now is based on which this film is heavily inspired by haha

I really enjoyed this movie but I don't know how i feel about my dumb action movies alluding to my deconstructive adventure fiction, also Nostromo and the Secret Agent are better when will hollywoods obsession with HOD end, why do Americans love it so much

you thought Sam Jackson and Jon Goodman easily outperformed Hiddleston and Larson. The latter two are both overrated shit and had no business being the leads.

Someone screencap this!

>That poster ripping-off apocalypse now
Is this 'nam kino?

>>84564583
That it was pretty entertaining but dragged down by non characters trying to hog the moral high ground about goddamn animals being animals.

Skullcrushy was a cheap strawman device to distract the audience from the fact that Kong is a vicious beast that kills because of anger management issue. Skullcrushy only killed people for food.

Conrad and the girl were bogus characters with most of the soldiers being nothing but background noise.

Also stupid lens flare is stupid.

And where are the goddamn ants?

>>84565376
mind=blown

>>84564583
I loved it. Had plenty of monster scene where they or the people were getting fucked up, and I could really feel the pokemon and Miyazaki influence in their designs.

>>84567438
>from the fact that Kong is a vicious beast that kills because of anger management issue.
Yeah, when bunch of maggots come to your house, blowing shit up and awakening up balrogs, you definitly must do nothing about it.

Why did the marketing rip off Apocalypse Now so much when pretty much the only similarity is Vietnam? Seems incredibly dishonest

>>84567676
>>84565428
I hope you guys are being facetious.

I like how the asian girl was included for no reason other than to maybe pander to the chink market. She added absolutely nothing to the movie.

AN has the cooler poster out of all the Vietnam movies and is arguably the most well known and acclaimed.

>no Platoon homage poster of Kong on his knees like Elias

damn shame

>>84569339
Well yeah that's what I mean when I say it's dishonest. They're piggybacking on a much better movie to market their monster flick when there really isn't that much similarity

D+, check again!

It was a nice movie. Got me hyped for the other films in the MonsterVerse.

>>84569328
That Jap canonically gets BLACKED

You were in the Silicon Valley thread too, weren't you.

What a pathetic faggot he had to reach for a completely unrelated movie,

>got his ass blown out thinking John Krasinski was a Jew

>>84564583
The tone was really off. It felt like it was trying too hard to get the Vietnam vibe, which didn't work because the cameras they were using looked too pristine and there was waaayyy too much CGI

>>84564583

Nice cinematography, great sound design. About as deep as the shallow end of the pool, but entartaining and well made. Liked it.

>>84564917
Diversity. Yay.

I heard the Director is directing the MGS movie so I watched this to see how competent he is. It was a bit shit beyond a decent technical ability a few funny references. He'll do good for the MGS movie because both him and Kojima are very obnoxious with slomo effects.

>>84564583
I thought it was okay. Better than Godzilla that's for sure.

>>84564583
shoulda been about the group fighting through the islands monster and such to the evac zone, fuck kong and skullheads w/e

>>84564583
This movie would've been a lot more better if you removed Loki, Larson, the nig, the chink and budget Shia, and emphasised more on the soldiers.

>>84570978
>This movie would've been a lot more better if you removed all non characters and fleshed out actual characters more

You don't say.

John C Reilly is the only reason to like this movie.

>>84571055
The point is that those are the main characters while others like John Goodman and that one blonde soldier got killed off in awful ways.

>>84565026
I don't think most people even know that apocalypse now is basically a HoD adaptation

>>84571135
Anyone who isn't 14 knows that

>>84570978
Which one was budget shia?

>>84571106
Jackson was also a really good villain in a "did nothing wrong" way, especially when he BTFOd Larson after she talked about muh feels.

>>84571161
Most people my age (21) have never heard of it and if they did it was because they read in in 12th grade AP lit, you underestimate our lack of interest in classic literature

>>84571209
"Bitch please" was the second best line after the one from John c Reilly about the fuckin ants

>>84571207
The scrawny guy who was fixing the boat with the Loki, Larson, Riley, etc

>>84571279
Oh yeah the soldier kid with the bandana, budget shia wasn't a bad description

>calling a movie anything other than a movie

>>84571321
Even some of the soldiers were similar to characters from other Vietnam styled jungle movies
>blonde guy who doesn't give a shit is Animal Mother from FMJ
>short energetic black guy is Alpa Chino from Tropic Thunder
>the silent mexican is Billy from Predator

>>84571321
At this point might as well call him premium Shia

>>84564583
You are on /tv/ so you must despise it for being American-made Jew-sponsored China-pandering capeshit devoid of any soul, understanding of basic filmmaking, and not catering to /tv/'s personal whims.

All I could think about was how some shots would make cool Wallpapers.

>>84565026
Don't know honestly. I like heart of darkness as a story but I never understood the praises people give it. Also Apocalypse Now is extremely overrated, don't @ me
