I actually kind of prefer Ann being completely terrified of Kong, because it makes his situation more tragic: the one person he can think of as a friend hates and fears him like everyone else, but he'll throw away his life to protect her anyway because he's so lonely.
You do make a solid point. I just wish that Ann though in the 1933 film had more personality than just being the girl King Kong has a furry boner for and kidnaps twice. And also that scream. I forgot how annoying that gets after a while. So, I guess Kong’s tragic death was more in vain for a girl who was completely bland.
I feel like there’s a real apples-to-oranges comparison between the two films. In the original, Ann is terrified of Kong the whole time. He is a beast and she is a damsel in distress. In the newer movie, the two develop a connection. As far as which dynamic you like is personal preference.
It is one of my all-time favorite soundtracks, right alongside Max Steiner's original. The first time listening to it as a piece of music separated from the visuals, I was amazed at how James Newton Howard somehow captured the essence of the 1930s in a 21st Century composition.
I have never seen the old one, I only seen the 2005 as a kid. honestly, I do love it especially the ending of it, it left me speechless and I was just sitting on the couch with my blanket wrapped around me
Side note: Kong 2005 had one of the best video game adaptations of a movie I've ever seen. Which is terrifying when you consider it was released by a successor (though indirectly) to LJN...
I actually quite like that the newer version went into more detail with a lot of its story elements, because that paired with the 3 hour running time makes it feel much more like an epic, which is what Peter Jackson was trying to make with this movie, an epic, granted the amount of detail in the newer version does make some parts drag but I don’t think it’s too bad
@@elliottknifton8902 the game based on the movie was actually really good and 95% of the game you're traversing through the depths of skull island. I'd recommend playing it.
+ShyGuyXXL Women on a ship have looong (like centuries long) been considered bad luck. Especially if there was only one woman. With a crew of men only. Men gone at sea for several weeks... See where this is going or should I explain more ?
I think I agree with this-much as I hate to admit it, since I love the Jackson version so much. But I think I can quantify that so I don't have to choose: The original, I think, focused mainly on the battle between the new world and the old world, while Jackson took the story and chose to develop the theme about beauty and how we appreciate it. Do we destroy it, like Carl, by putting a price tag on it? Do we neglect it, as Jack does? Or is Kong, simple and childlike as he is, correct in simply seeking it out to enjoy it for what it is?
The ice-skating scene is one of most effective scenes in the movie, because seeing them so happy together only makes the ending all the more heartbreaking.

Apes have a LOT of facial expressions, readable for humans. Stating that 1933's Kong feels more like a "real animal" because you can't read his emotions is quite far fetched...
Because the average Joe toootally knows how to read an apes expression. That's why no one ever gets mauled by chimps or monkeys showing signs of aggression they misconstrue as a smile.
While Sir Peter Jackson made a very worthy remake of the original, I'm sure that even he would admit that his movie never intended to replace the original 1933 movie either. After all, it's his favourite movie of all time not to mention the film inspiring him to become a filmmaker. I agree that some scenes could have been cut like some of the crew but at the end of the day, Jackson just loves to include gags in his movies. ;)
Hello from 2017! I just saw The new Kong Skull Island and I have to admit it was pretty good! Sure it had its flaws but overall was a decent film. This is my opinion don't kill me
I loved Kong: Skull Island. It was refreshing to get a different story on King Kong and not a 3 hour long remake. I also liked the design of Kong better.
Skull Island is fun! That’s the difference between these the original and Peter Jackson move and the newer film. Those films were about the folly of mankind trying to control the world for its benefits and how even the most animalistic beast has emotions. Skull island is about Vietnam soilders, ww2 vets, and big apes fighting lizards, giant spiders and squids. It’s not trying to complicate, its pure entertainment.
The newer king kong is actually more realistic then the old one. Yeah they used an actor for motion capture but great apes like gorillas do actually have very human facial expression and emotion range. They dont just act like “dumb animals” and the 2005 king kong is a lot more emotional like the real animals. Which makes him more sentimental cause you CAN see what gorillas are feeling emotion wise. They don’t just have blank expressionless snarling faces like the original.
*_"The newer king kong is actually more realistic then the old one."_* That's actually the big problem with Jackson's Kong design - _he looks too much like a real gorilla._ With the original, you knew early on that is not what a real gorilla looks like, but that is what the King Kong character looks like and should look like: an exaggerated caricature, a movie monster first and a gorilla second, and that makes his design all the more unique and stand out from his real life counterparts. Making him look like a real gorilla is just boring, not at all unique or special when comparing silhouettes. Hell, that is why the MonsterVerse Kong looks a lot like the original: it is just that unique of a design for the character.
I just stopped 9:21 to say this, the only way the old effects can beat the new is if you compare the effects NOT TO EACH OTHER, but to the effects OF THE PERSPECTIVE TIME PERIOD. Meaning in 2005, King kong's effects wouldn't be all that amazing, while the 1933 effects were for the time period. Now I'll continue watching to see who you say wins.
Well, I’m not one to argue, but people loved the 70s Kong. And to be fair, it looks pretty good. The portrayal of Kong is good in a different way, because while one showed off the skill of an actor, the other showed of the skill of an animator
I just watched the 1933 film, and I have to say that the natives in the 2005 film actually seem more stereotypically aggressive than the movie from the '30s portrayed them. In the '33 film, the natives actually try to warn the crew to go away when they interrupt their ceremony instead of just going nuts on them over a chocolate bar. Not to mention that the natives actually try to exchange some of their own women for Ann, they don't kill or even hurt any of the crew at all, and they even rush to the crew's aid when Kong attacks the village to search for Ann. Hell, the only bad thing they ever did was kidnap Ann to sacrifice her to Kong, and only after the bartering was unsuccessful. The natives in the 1933 film may look silly, but at least they weren't all depicted as one-dimensional, bloodthirsty psychopaths. But of course, there are lots of different ways that a tribe can react to strangers arriving on their doorstep. So I guess I can't say that the 2005 portrayal was unrealistic. In fact, the 2005 portrayal was pretty damn effective in its own way. Damn terrifying, too. Props to Peter Jackson.
The 2005 trice was a starving hermit people, they once had a thriving civilization but the constant earthquakes were sinking the island causing the Wall protecting the people to crumbing and overtime they got travel until those who didn’t leave found shelter in the catacombs of there dead. They are barley a shell of what they once were so they survive in pure desperation and sacrifice to appease the last great ape of the island.
Peter Jackson's King Kong is my all time favorite movie, I've watched it probably 1000 times, but man did the natives in that movie scared the shit out of me as a kid, I remember seeing it in the theaters and literally staring at the walls of the theater, or my lap, during any scene they were in. When I got the movie on dvd, I always skipped the parts with them in it.
Naomi Watts is one of the main reasons I love the 2005 version more. Also, I really love Jack Black in the 2005 one as well. Of course, the CG is fantastic. Especially for 2005.
I just want to compare the group of people from the 2005 film to Kong: Skull Island. There's Brie Larson; the leading lady who shows compassion, but is able to stand up to Kong, the crazy guy who knows his way around the island played by John C. Reilly and Tom Hiddleston. Yeah, I know he also plays Loki, but outside of one scene where he defends himself with knives, he really doesn't do anything.
I think the effects should have gone to the original. Granted the newer movie is technically better, but we're looking at the difference between a movie shot in 1933 compared to 2005. What I think is important here is that the special effects in the original were groundbreaking for its time, while the newer version's effects were pretty much standard.
@@n8george spider-man 2 came out the year before and Pirates of the Caribbean came out 2 years before. The effects for King Kong were solid but not groundbreaking like the original King Kong
the special effects in the 2005 were the best you could get in 2005. BUT the effects in the 1933 might be dated now but their were 40 YEARS ahead of its time.... at the time.
Handsome Jack. very impressive indeed. There's not one shot in the movie That I didn't think wasn't well done. and will still look good in 100 years from now.
Ok the original was more animalistic because the blank slate face (even though primates are very emotive animals, they're social) but ruling the new one out because of emotion when it's a story of Kong falling in love, emotion is the basis of the story so having him show that makes sense to me
I always loved the older movie effects over computer generated. they put a lot of hard work into it and it really shows. the new movies are good for showing large action sequences but it's expensive to make so you only get satisfying scenes from large companies like marvel.
+CGF movies The 2014 movie bored me to tears. You'd have to pay me to watch it again. The plot was bare bones at best, the lead never had any sense of direction, and - I'm gonna say it! - I preferred the more animalistic/instinctual take of Godzilla in '98 over the anthropomorphized, humanized version in 2014. I wasn't rooting for Godzilla to win, I was just bored. I got more enjoyment out of Jurassic Park dinosaur fights. Even the ones from JP III. Then again, I never watched any of the original Godzilla movies, so I have no nostalgia drive towards the character. I just watched it on the basis of it being a fresh, new movie for me. A movie I wouldn't watch again. Sure, it looked kinda cool, but Godzilla laser puking in another monster's mouth was eh?
Roy Sunshine there was a King Kong vs Godzilla movie in the 1960's. I can't remember who won though. But still if there's gonna be a new one it would be awesome to see how it works out. Maybe Critic can do an old vs new between the two if the movies are similar enough.
2 years later and now we know there will be Kong v Godzilla. people questioned Kong's height and it was addressed in Kong Skull Island (in that he's a big dude, but not yet a full adult) a full adult kong would be closer to Godzilla's height.
primates do make human like expressions and in many cases you can tell what they're thinking...im sure you knew this though. You were jus determined to give a point to the older one 😒
Read My Lips - News & Politics Kong in the 2005 movie acted way too human. In the 1933 movie, he felt like an actual animal. Not knowing anything and trying to nab it. The 2005 one understood a lot more than he should have. He's never seen anyone else other than the tribe, yet he's already reading Ann's emotions like a book and expecting her to entertain him. The 1933 one just wanted to inspect her and smell her, and all that primal stuff.
@@scaryrumpus Thats one specific point, then secondly think about how the actual sidecharacters WERE less interesting, I also watched the newer one and perfer it, but I cannot lie the love interest is BORING
@@giuseppelambrinos2458 well that’s because many facial expressions are shared between humans and gorillas gorillas are very intelligent and it’s constantly shown how underestimated we think they can understand
Despite what NC says, I like the new one, because it has more emotion, the point of the movie is to make you feel. Show,don't tell Right, because that's what NC says, a lot and that's what the film dose. You see the emotions of the woman and King Kong, you see them make a connection, you see that in a strange way she loves Kong back, the scene in the street and the ice skating scene are there to show that despite how scary a big Gorilla can be he's not a monster and is capable of love, he's just a simple innocent creature which makes it worse when he dies. Then of course we have the 'Is man the real monster' story, which it kind of is and that one line at the end said by Jack Black "it was beauty killed the beast"
King Kong 2005 was way better then the original. It actually had heart, better characters, a better Kong (the design was good, not like the original but it was good), and a better cast. Adrien Brody's Jack was boring, he's a writer. It's the change in his character arc on the island (and boat) when he realizes Ann is missing and when he needs to find her. We see how prominent he is and how he truly cares for her. Especially putting his life at risk multiple times on the Island AND New York when going to the theater to find Ann and when he goes up the Empire State Building. His character is very rare to find in real life and in other movies. It's a person who is like mellow but always helps people they care about it, this s really hard to explain but it's true. Like Dr. Benson from King Kong Lives (yes I used a KKL reference I'm sorry! it's a fun movie tho). But yeah Jack Black is a great Carl, he's very prominent like Jack but under different circumstances, film. He needs to make this movie and puts everything on the line for it. He wasn't a nice person, but he was portrayed very well. Naomi Watts is a far FAAARRRR better Ann Darrow and everyone knows why. The story in 2005 is better too. Runtime shouldn't be considered a point since it varies from many people. I get that it's really long but I'd love watching a Kong movie that's 5 hours long. A lot of scenes on the boat should have been cut from the theatrical version but it's all story that's needed for the characters. Original had a way better story, characters, Kong (a fucking powerful smart one), special fx (obviously though shouldn't be considered a point), and a beautiful score. Remake takes it.
Except a lot of people forgot about the film a year after it came out. The 1933 version is simple and down to the point, Kong 2005 has a lot of unnecessary fat. The Original was one of those Cinema Changers that went down in history as a Pioneer Film, the Jackson Film did not. So 1933 is owed respect. So show The Original some Damn Respect!
12:50 You have not been around enough animals to know that they can have facial expressions too. Not as many as humans, but if a tiger shows its teeth or if an ape does, then you can tell it will try to kill you...
It's kinda erronious judgement that NC is basing his "Best Kong" argument off of that animals aren't expressive, when he's talking about primates, some of the most expressive creatures on the face of the planet.
Personally, I actually had a problem w how they portrayed the natives in the new. Yes, the old is bogged down by old school prejudice, but at least they portrayed them as people. In the new one, they where basically violent aliens.
While I see your point, I think the new natives are so over-the-top crazy (and slightly demonic/zombie-like) that I never really compared them with any actual race of people in the real world.
Absolutely agree. The natives in Jackson's version were illogical. I can't think of a better term. It was a society that shouldn't have been as well off as they appeared to be. The natives in the original were handled respectfully. I saw nothing there I haven't seen in other tribes in early Africa, for example. Feathers and ornamentation trinkets are/were normal. Jackson's head was still in his 'Lord Of The Rings' phase when he came with his natives. Cooper and Schoedsack had first hand experience with various tribes during their lives. The ceremony where Jackson's natives roll their eyes back in their heads, make demonic faces and act like they're in some kind of otherworldly trance...entirely disingenuous and, frankly, unnecessary. Whom are they trying to impress? And what's with the lava??
have you not seen what happens to people who go off to areas of indigenous people who have no contact with the outside world, heads up they kill whoever shows up. I mean just recently there was a tribe that have literally killed the last two people who showed up there
In a way, I sort of think it fits. Considering the island they live on is Jumanji set to Expert Mode and they're cut off from everyone else. Buuuut as someone else said, they probably shouldn't be as well off as they are if they're that violent and kill crazy. Hard to say without a more in-depth look at them.
Speaking of a beauty and a beast, I've heard a live- action remake of Disney's Beauty and the Beast is coming out in December. Maybe the Nostalgia Critic will make an Old vs New: Beauty and the Beast in the future like he did with Cinderella. Who knows? No one plays Gaston like the original.
Right. I first found it out in Wikipedia and it claimed the movie would come out in December. Of course information from Wikipedia is subject to change.
I don't think he's gonna do that, I believe it's mostly a shot by shot remake of the original. The Story, which is always present in these comparisons, can't play as much a part.
I'm getting real tired of all these critics and reviewers hating on CGI. CGI is the future. accept it already. Sure, sometimes they do it badly or they just do it good enough instead of going all the way as they should, but then again it was like that with old effects too. Let's be honest here, when they use puppets, costumes and animatronics you have both the incredibly good ones like in Jurassic Park, the mediocre ones like in Alien, and the silly and horrible ones. Same as we have now with CGI. We have movies done mostly with CGI and facial mapping, and some are incredibly while some suck elephant's ass. CGI and virtuality is the way to go. Deal with it.
I find CGI to be boring to be honest and dont find it all that much enjoyable. It is actually ( in my opinion ) much more fun and interesting to see a hand made costume or a puppet ( if done correctly ) on the screen. CGI even if done properly is just a much more common thing nowadays and doesnt hold my attention as much as something made by hand.
Say that and compare John Carpenters Thing to 2011 Thing. Or Lord of the rings and the hobbit (Yes LOTR used a shit ton of CGI but their Orcs were real people) Or compare Raiders of the Lost Arc to Chrystal Skull. Also Compare American Werewolf in London to 2010 Wolfman.
First of all, I highly appreciate your videos. I think you strike a perfect balance between legitimate criticism, akin to Roger Ebert (I legitimately mean that. Your tribute to him made me tear up.), and pure entertainment value (your skits crack me up). I was, however, dismayed when I discovered your Old vs. New series, as this was very similar to a series of videos I planned to make, this very topic being one of the first few I had planned to make, and even began researching. This video nails almost everything I planned to say. It brings a smile to my face to see the dedicated following you have, and your unwavering commitment to bring us new content on an almost daily basis. I can't tell you how many people I've recommended your channel to. Keep up the fantastic work! I look forward to seeing new content from you everyday.
What I don’t understand is why the natives never popped up when Kong broke down the door in the 2005 remake. I mean they were there in the original, and it added one of the best scenes! but in the remake they just weren’t there.
+Joey Robertson Yeah man, I really like the Nostalgia Critic but old usually wins and most of the times I disagree, especially with Batman vs TDK, I think he was blinded by nostalgia in that video. The only time I have seen the new one win was with SM vs TASM, which is exactly the one that I thought the old should've definitely won.
Peter Jackson in his commentary track noted that the reason why the falling of the native that's been shot was done in slow-motion while the chaos surrounding it wasn't,was to make the scene feel unreal,like a dream.
Critic, let's be honest. How seriously are we supposed to take a story about a giant ape that falls in love with a human lady. It's like if Bowser fell in love with Peach. It's just plain fucking strange.
little know fact is that most of us have never seen the original King Kong in its original version.. when it was released in the theater in 1933 there were additional scenes that were later cut from the film for being to dark , violent and gruesome in the day according to movie critics of the day.. therefore it was pulled from the theater edited, lightened a bit and re-released. so unless you were alive in 1933 and saw the original film debut in the theater, then you haven't seen the original King Kong.. which most of us haven't... the edited clips from what I understand were discarded so no one will ever see them again.. no thats a dam shame
All of the Deleted scenes pulled from the 1933 theater release version of king kong (besides the Bug Pit scene which was lost for ever) were found and restored in 1971. So in fact most people have scene the original king kong minus 1 scene from the movie. It should be noted however that Peter Jackson did use the original models and storyboards to digitally reshoot the scene and added it back into the Kong rereleases much later. So you can see the recreated Bug Pit Scene (though technically it was spiders.)
The whole "lost spider spit" sequence has been debunked. The old images of the creatures for that scene were just taken for promotional purposes. While the spider pit sequence was in the original script, it was never shot due to budgetary reasons.
What do you mean you can't tell what animals are feeling?! Of course you can! It's easier to tell what animals are feeling than humans for crying out loud!
11:23 In my personal opinion, THIS is where the 200-minute runtime REALLY comes in handy for 2005! You get to feel more at one with the characters, especially Kong!😋
+Copper389 I dunno, I kind of liked Fay Wray in the original. I'm admittedly biased because I grew up watching the original and the inferior 1976 remake on television.
That is how a Woman really would have acted in the Original. The Original is Objectively a good Classic Pioneer Film. The 2005 Film was Flash in the Pan and was forgotten about within a month. That all makes The 1933 Version The Objectively Better Film.
@@bradleyrenfroe2776I highly doubt a woman would be constantly screaming as much as Willie Scott’s predecessor. Maybe a few times from seeing a gigantic ape or being abducted or held over the Empire State Building, but not THAT much. Sometimes realistic isn’t always good. An internet critic actually once said “Sometimes you have to sacrifice reality when writing a piece of fiction. How fun would a video game be if I had to constantly stop to take a breath?”

I love the music of peter Jackson’s King Kong it’s so heartfelt.
Me too! King Kong's fall was so heartbreaking, the music complimented the scene very beautifully. James Newton Howard is a fantastic composer!
Yes
It goes from very badass and exciting to emotionally tear jerking
It's crazy to think James Newton Howard only had six weeks to make the entire soundtrack, having replaced Howard Shore.
It is one of my all-time favorite soundtracks, right alongside Max Steiner's original. The first time listening to it as a piece of music separated from the visuals, I was amazed at how James Newton Howard somehow captured the essence of the 1930s in a 21st Century composition.
I have never seen the old one, I only seen the 2005 as a kid. honestly, I do love it especially the ending of it, it left me speechless and I was just sitting on the couch with my blanket wrapped around me

I think I agree with this-much as I hate to admit it, since I love the Jackson version so much. But I think I can quantify that so I don't have to choose: The original, I think, focused mainly on the battle between the new world and the old world, while Jackson took the story and chose to develop the theme about beauty and how we appreciate it. Do we destroy it, like Carl, by putting a price tag on it? Do we neglect it, as Jack does? Or is Kong, simple and childlike as he is, correct in simply seeking it out to enjoy it for what it is?

1933 is still a tighter movie, but it is very dated.
Apes have a LOT of facial expressions, readable for humans. Stating that 1933's Kong feels more like a "real animal" because you can't read his emotions is quite far fetched...
Not to mention 2005 kong was modelled after real gorillas. Andy serkis even studied real gorillas in the wild.
Because the average Joe toootally knows how to read an apes expression. That's why no one ever gets mauled by chimps or monkeys showing signs of aggression they misconstrue as a smile.

2019: Showing emotions is better than being blank and emotionless
While Sir Peter Jackson made a very worthy remake of the original, I'm sure that even he would admit that his movie never intended to replace the original 1933 movie either. After all, it's his favourite movie of all time not to mention the film inspiring him to become a filmmaker. I agree that some scenes could have been cut like some of the crew but at the end of the day, Jackson just loves to include gags in his movies. ;)

Cute, but undeniably silly

that's what i liked about it, it was adorable :(
MetalFoxT Dugan Well, silly from a realism standpoint. Not the 'cute' kind of silly.
Particular Particle
i dont get it..
MetalFoxT Dugan It was unrealistic to a ridiculous degree... There, I spelled it out for you.
Peter Jackson's Kong does drag a lot in the first half, but is still a pretty damn good movie, and Serkis as Kong. a huge creature at its best.
Both are great films and Kong Skull Island was a pretty good adaption for the Monsterverse
DONT SAY SKULL 16:35
Hello from 2017! I just saw The new Kong Skull Island and I have to admit it was pretty good! Sure it had its flaws but overall was a decent film.
This is my opinion don't kill me
Love that movie.
I thought it was a pretty fun watch. Love how huge Kong is
I loved Kong: Skull Island. It was refreshing to get a different story on King Kong and not a 3 hour long remake. I also liked the design of Kong better.
Skull Island is fun! That’s the difference between these the original and Peter Jackson move and the newer film. Those films were about the folly of mankind trying to control the world for its benefits and how even the most animalistic beast has emotions. Skull island is about Vietnam soilders, ww2 vets, and big apes fighting lizards, giant spiders and squids. It’s not trying to complicate, its pure entertainment.
The newer king kong is actually more realistic then the old one. Yeah they used an actor for motion capture but great apes like gorillas do actually have very human facial expression and emotion range. They dont just act like “dumb animals” and the 2005 king kong is a lot more emotional like the real animals. Which makes him more sentimental cause you CAN see what gorillas are feeling emotion wise. They don’t just have blank expressionless snarling faces like the original.
*_"The newer king kong is actually more realistic then the old one."_* That's actually the big problem with Jackson's Kong design - _he looks too much like a real gorilla._ With the original, you knew early on that is not what a real gorilla looks like, but that is what the King Kong character looks like and should look like: an exaggerated caricature, a movie monster first and a gorilla second, and that makes his design all the more unique and stand out from his real life counterparts. Making him look like a real gorilla is just boring, not at all unique or special when comparing silhouettes.
Hell, that is why the MonsterVerse Kong looks a lot like the original: it is just that unique of a design for the character.
i can understand that movie buffs can be sentimental towards the original, but Peter Jackson's Kong made me cry for a monkey, man!
Yeah, you never really feel that much for Kong in the original. He's made far more of a character in this one, and a sympathetic one at that.
I just stopped 9:21 to say this, the only way the old effects can beat the new is if you compare the effects NOT TO EACH OTHER, but to the effects OF THE PERSPECTIVE TIME PERIOD. Meaning in 2005, King kong's effects wouldn't be all that amazing, while the 1933 effects were for the time period.
Now I'll continue watching to see who you say wins.
Their is heart in cgi
Well, I’m not one to argue, but people loved the 70s Kong. And to be fair, it looks pretty good. The portrayal of Kong is good in a different way, because while one showed off the skill of an actor, the other showed of the skill of an animator
Personally I've always preferred the 2005 version due to the emotion and spectacle, but the original 1933 version is still great:)
I agree.
The 1933 King Kong animatronic face is nightmare fuel to be honest.
I just watched the 1933 film, and I have to say that the natives in the 2005 film actually seem more stereotypically aggressive than the movie from the '30s portrayed them.
In the '33 film, the natives actually try to warn the crew to go away when they interrupt their ceremony instead of just going nuts on them over a chocolate bar. Not to mention that the natives actually try to exchange some of their own women for Ann, they don't kill or even hurt any of the crew at all, and they even rush to the crew's aid when Kong attacks the village to search for Ann. Hell, the only bad thing they ever did was kidnap Ann to sacrifice her to Kong, and only after the bartering was unsuccessful.
The natives in the 1933 film may look silly, but at least they weren't all depicted as one-dimensional, bloodthirsty psychopaths. But of course, there are lots of different ways that a tribe can react to strangers arriving on their doorstep. So I guess I can't say that the 2005 portrayal was unrealistic. In fact, the 2005 portrayal was pretty damn effective in its own way. Damn terrifying, too. Props to Peter Jackson.
The 2005 trice was a starving hermit people, they once had a thriving civilization but the constant earthquakes were sinking the island causing the Wall protecting the people to crumbing and overtime they got travel until those who didn’t leave found shelter in the catacombs of there dead. They are barley a shell of what they once were so they survive in pure desperation and sacrifice to appease the last great ape of the island.
Peter Jackson's King Kong is my all time favorite movie, I've watched it probably 1000 times, but man did the natives in that movie scared the shit out of me as a kid, I remember seeing it in the theaters and literally staring at the walls of the theater, or my lap, during any scene they were in. When I got the movie on dvd, I always skipped the parts with them in it.
I'm so glad you used the original as the "old" version. :)
Naomi Watts is one of the main reasons I love the 2005 version more. Also, I really love Jack Black in the 2005 one as well. Of course, the CG is fantastic. Especially for 2005.
I just want to compare the group of people from the 2005 film to Kong: Skull Island. There's Brie Larson; the leading lady who shows compassion, but is able to stand up to Kong, the crazy guy who knows his way around the island played by John C. Reilly and Tom Hiddleston. Yeah, I know he also plays Loki, but outside of one scene where he defends himself with knives, he really doesn't do anything.
I think the effects should have gone to the original. Granted the newer movie is technically better, but we're looking at the difference between a movie shot in 1933 compared to 2005. What I think is important here is that the special effects in the original were groundbreaking for its time, while the newer version's effects were pretty much standard.
Eric Nash exactly, there were better looking movies in 2005.
@@mysteriousmrocd8384 Name one. The only poorly done scene was the dinosaur chase. King Kong 05's CGI was ridiculous for its time
@@n8george spider-man 2 came out the year before and Pirates of the Caribbean came out 2 years before. The effects for King Kong were solid but not groundbreaking like the original King Kong

I respect the original movie but I prefer the Peter Jackson version.
The Joker I appreciate the fact that the original is 80 minutes less
#gangweed
I love Kong '05 too!
the special effects in the 2005 were the best you could get in 2005. BUT the effects in the 1933 might be dated now but their were 40 YEARS ahead of its time.... at the time.
the 2005 one still pretty good, they are very impressive
Handsome Jack. very impressive indeed. There's not one shot in the movie That I didn't think wasn't well done. and will still look good in 100 years from now.
Ok the original was more animalistic because the blank slate face (even though primates are very emotive animals, they're social) but ruling the new one out because of emotion when it's a story of Kong falling in love, emotion is the basis of the story so having him show that makes sense to me
I always loved the older movie effects over computer generated. they put a lot of hard work into it and it really shows. the new movies are good for showing large action sequences but it's expensive to make so you only get satisfying scenes from large companies like marvel.
Can you imagine them using modern variants of those old techniques today? Whoa momma!
It's crazy how much your production value has increased since 2015. Keep it up guys
U should now do old vs new King Kong (2005) vs Kong skull island (2017)
You should do Godzilla next!
+Jack Glaser So? His last new vs old was about a year ago, he only does them every once in a while
+shadowlinkbds Can't do it, Godzilla wasn't even in the 2014 movie asides from like 2 fight scenes.
That movie was shit
1998, was shit, not 1954 or 2014 (They're both awesome)
+CGF movies The 2014 movie bored me to tears. You'd have to pay me to watch it again. The plot was bare bones at best, the lead never had any sense of direction, and - I'm gonna say it! - I preferred the more animalistic/instinctual take of Godzilla in '98 over the anthropomorphized, humanized version in 2014. I wasn't rooting for Godzilla to win, I was just bored. I got more enjoyment out of Jurassic Park dinosaur fights. Even the ones from JP III.
Then again, I never watched any of the original Godzilla movies, so I have no nostalgia drive towards the character. I just watched it on the basis of it being a fresh, new movie for me. A movie I wouldn't watch again. Sure, it looked kinda cool, but Godzilla laser puking in another monster's mouth was eh?
Not gonna lie, this episode is one of the best examples of "old man yells at cloud"
I can't remember when or where I heard of this, but there's gonna be a King Kong vs Godzilla movie.
Roy Sunshine there was a King Kong vs Godzilla movie in the 1960's. I can't remember who won though. But still if there's gonna be a new one it would be awesome to see how it works out. Maybe Critic can do an old vs new between the two if the movies are similar enough.
Roy Sunshine Yeah you're right
Roy Sunshine But the movie may or may not happen. So if it doesn't happen, then we all move on. If it does happen, we can see how it turns out
2 years later and now we know there will be Kong v Godzilla. people questioned Kong's height and it was addressed in Kong Skull Island (in that he's a big dude, but not yet a full adult) a full adult kong would be closer to Godzilla's height.
Dominick Veras well at the end of that movie, they only saw Kong emerge from underwater walking while Godzilla has suddenly disappeared.

Kong Skull Island!!!!!
Yup.
We do not speak of that.

primates do make human like expressions and in many cases you can tell what they're thinking...im sure you knew this though. You were jus determined to give a point to the older one 😒
Read My Lips - News & Politics Kong in the 2005 movie acted way too human. In the 1933 movie, he felt like an actual animal. Not knowing anything and trying to nab it. The 2005 one understood a lot more than he should have. He's never seen anyone else other than the tribe, yet he's already reading Ann's emotions like a book and expecting her to entertain him. The 1933 one just wanted to inspect her and smell her, and all that primal stuff.
@@scaryrumpus Thats one specific point, then secondly think about how the actual sidecharacters WERE less interesting, I also watched the newer one and perfer it, but I cannot lie the love interest is BORING
@@giuseppelambrinos2458 well that’s because many facial expressions are shared between humans and gorillas gorillas are very intelligent and it’s constantly shown how underestimated we think they can understand

I absolutely love the 2005 version
Hi Donkey KONG icon on a King KONG Old vs New video.Lol xD
Old vs New Jungle Book
Cory Posluszny now that would a Fucking war.
Despite what NC says, I like the new one, because it has more emotion, the point of the movie is to make you feel. Show,don't tell Right, because that's what NC says, a lot and that's what the film dose.
You see the emotions of the woman and King Kong, you see them make a connection, you see that in a strange way she loves Kong back, the scene in the street and the ice skating scene are there to show that despite how scary a big Gorilla can be he's not a monster and is capable of love, he's just a simple innocent creature which makes it worse when he dies.
Then of course we have the 'Is man the real monster' story, which it kind of is and that one line at the end said by Jack Black "it was beauty killed the beast"
I agree
King Kong 2005 was way better then the original. It actually had heart, better characters, a better Kong (the design was good, not like the original but it was good), and a better cast. Adrien Brody's Jack was boring, he's a writer. It's the change in his character arc on the island (and boat) when he realizes Ann is missing and when he needs to find her. We see how prominent he is and how he truly cares for her. Especially putting his life at risk multiple times on the Island AND New York when going to the theater to find Ann and when he goes up the Empire State Building. His character is very rare to find in real life and in other movies. It's a person who is like mellow but always helps people they care about it, this s really hard to explain but it's true. Like Dr. Benson from King Kong Lives (yes I used a KKL reference I'm sorry! it's a fun movie tho). But yeah Jack Black is a great Carl, he's very prominent like Jack but under different circumstances, film. He needs to make this movie and puts everything on the line for it. He wasn't a nice person, but he was portrayed very well. Naomi Watts is a far FAAARRRR better Ann Darrow and everyone knows why. The story in 2005 is better too. Runtime shouldn't be considered a point since it varies from many people. I get that it's really long but I'd love watching a Kong movie that's 5 hours long. A lot of scenes on the boat should have been cut from the theatrical version but it's all story that's needed for the characters. Original had a way better story, characters, Kong (a fucking powerful smart one), special fx (obviously though shouldn't be considered a point), and a beautiful score. Remake takes it.
Except a lot of people forgot about the film a year after it came out. The 1933 version is simple and down to the point, Kong 2005 has a lot of unnecessary fat. The Original was one of those Cinema Changers that went down in history as a Pioneer Film, the Jackson Film did not. So 1933 is owed respect. So show The Original some Damn Respect!
Let’s all be honest with ourselves here and admit that if we were kidnapped by King Kong we would all be closer to feigh ray....
Am I the only one who thought of WINNIE THE POOH: THE SEARCH FOR CHRISTOPHER ROBBIN with the whole skull joke?
After over a decade, Kong is finally returning!
12:50 You have not been around enough animals to know that they can have facial expressions too. Not as many as humans, but if a tiger shows its teeth or if an ape does, then you can tell it will try to kill you...
Old vs new petes dragon
I'd bet he'd prefer the remake. Although I personally love them both.
Doug runnin' wild in the neighborhood is always a gem
It's kinda erronious judgement that NC is basing his "Best Kong" argument off of that animals aren't expressive, when he's talking about primates, some of the most expressive creatures on the face of the planet.
Remake Ann: Honey, I had times with Kong to bond.
King Kong 1933: Why did I go for the screaming babshee?
Personally, I actually had a problem w how they portrayed the natives in the new.
Yes, the old is bogged down by old school prejudice, but at least they portrayed them as people. In the new one, they where basically violent aliens.
While I see your point, I think the new natives are so over-the-top crazy (and slightly demonic/zombie-like) that I never really compared them with any actual race of people in the real world.
Absolutely agree. The natives in Jackson's version were illogical. I can't think of a better term. It was a society that shouldn't have been as well off as they appeared to be. The natives in the original were handled respectfully. I saw nothing there I haven't seen in other tribes in early Africa, for example. Feathers and ornamentation trinkets are/were normal. Jackson's head was still in his 'Lord Of The Rings' phase when he came with his natives. Cooper and Schoedsack had first hand experience with various tribes during their lives. The ceremony where Jackson's natives roll their eyes back in their heads, make demonic faces and act like they're in some kind of otherworldly trance...entirely disingenuous and, frankly, unnecessary. Whom are they trying to impress? And what's with the lava??
have you not seen what happens to people who go off to areas of indigenous people who have no contact with the outside world, heads up they kill whoever shows up. I mean just recently there was a tribe that have literally killed the last two people who showed up there
@@hungfao How old are you to have witnessed tribes in early Africa?
In a way, I sort of think it fits. Considering the island they live on is Jumanji set to Expert Mode and they're cut off from everyone else. Buuuut as someone else said, they probably shouldn't be as well off as they are if they're that violent and kill crazy. Hard to say without a more in-depth look at them.
Ah, classic Nostalgia Critic. He put in the time to make good arguments and comparisons, taking things seriously while still making jokes.
...I think that's more later than earlier.
Speaking of a beauty and a beast, I've heard a live- action remake of Disney's Beauty and the Beast is coming out in December. Maybe the Nostalgia Critic will make an Old vs New: Beauty and the Beast in the future like he did with Cinderella. Who knows? No one plays Gaston like the original.
Not in December. They've set it for next March. And they've released a trailer and some stills now.
Right. I first found it out in Wikipedia and it claimed the movie would come out in December. Of course information from Wikipedia is subject to change.
I don't think he's gonna do that, I believe it's mostly a shot by shot remake of the original. The Story, which is always present in these comparisons, can't play as much a part.
2005 King Kong expressions done by Andy Serkis was amazing
I'm getting real tired of all these critics and reviewers hating on CGI. CGI is the future. accept it already.
Sure, sometimes they do it badly or they just do it good enough instead of going all the way as they should, but then again it was like that with old effects too. Let's be honest here, when they use puppets, costumes and animatronics you have both the incredibly good ones like in Jurassic Park, the mediocre ones like in Alien, and the silly and horrible ones. Same as we have now with CGI. We have movies done mostly with CGI and facial mapping, and some are incredibly while some suck elephant's ass.
CGI and virtuality is the way to go. Deal with it.
fucking *THANK YOU*
AMEN
I find CGI to be boring to be honest and dont find it all that much enjoyable. It is actually ( in my opinion ) much more fun and interesting to see a hand made costume or a puppet ( if done correctly ) on the screen. CGI even if done properly is just a much more common thing nowadays and doesnt hold my attention as much as something made by hand.
Say that and compare John Carpenters Thing to 2011 Thing. Or Lord of the rings and the hobbit (Yes LOTR used a shit ton of CGI but their Orcs were real people) Or compare Raiders of the Lost Arc to Chrystal Skull. Also Compare American Werewolf in London to 2010 Wolfman.
First of all, I highly appreciate your videos. I think you strike a perfect balance between legitimate criticism, akin to Roger Ebert (I legitimately mean that. Your tribute to him made me tear up.), and pure entertainment value (your skits crack me up). I was, however, dismayed when I discovered your Old vs. New series, as this was very similar to a series of videos I planned to make, this very topic being one of the first few I had planned to make, and even began researching. This video nails almost everything I planned to say. It brings a smile to my face to see the dedicated following you have, and your unwavering commitment to bring us new content on an almost daily basis. I can't tell you how many people I've recommended your channel to. Keep up the fantastic work! I look forward to seeing new content from you everyday.
I liked the natives in kong skull island. They weren't insane they were quiet and mysterious
What I don’t understand is why the natives never popped up when Kong broke down the door in the 2005 remake. I mean they were there in the original, and it added one of the best scenes! but in the remake they just weren’t there.

He doesn't fall in love with her.
Super Mario Bros Movie (2023)
I'm just going to say this now ... Nostalgia Critic, we NEED Old vs New back! And not just a one off!
little know fact is that most of us have never seen the original King Kong in its original version.. when it was released in the theater in 1933 there were additional scenes that were later cut from the film for being to dark , violent and gruesome in the day according to movie critics of the day.. therefore it was pulled from the theater edited, lightened a bit and re-released. so unless you were alive in 1933 and saw the original film debut in the theater, then you haven't seen the original King Kong.. which most of us haven't... the edited clips from what I understand were discarded so no one will ever see them again.. no thats a dam shame
Yeah, doesn't that include the Bug Pit?
ajmrowland To be honest Im not sure.. Unfortunately Im not old enough to have seen the original lol
All of the Deleted scenes pulled from the 1933 theater release version of king kong (besides the Bug Pit scene which was lost for ever) were found and restored in 1971. So in fact most people have scene the original king kong minus 1 scene from the movie. It should be noted however that Peter Jackson did use the original models and storyboards to digitally reshoot the scene and added it back into the Kong rereleases much later. So you can see the recreated Bug Pit Scene (though technically it was spiders.)
The whole "lost spider spit" sequence has been debunked. The old images of the creatures for that scene were just taken for promotional purposes. While the spider pit sequence was in the original script, it was never shot due to budgetary reasons.
I’m waiting for “Old vs new: Nostalgia critic”

That is how a Woman really would have acted in the Original. The Original is Objectively a good Classic Pioneer Film. The 2005 Film was Flash in the Pan and was forgotten about within a month. That all makes The 1933 Version The Objectively Better Film.
@@bradleyrenfroe2776I highly doubt a woman would be constantly screaming as much as Willie Scott’s predecessor. Maybe a few times from seeing a gigantic ape or being abducted or held over the Empire State Building, but not THAT much. Sometimes realistic isn’t always good.
