I was a 6 years old Japanese kindergartener when I watched "King Kong vs Godzilla" with my mother and younger brother at a local movie theater in 1962. Though sixty years has passed since then and I`m a 66 years old pensioner, I remember this bout between Godzilla and King Kong very vividly as if it was yeasterday.
@@cracstheidiot6913 In addition to King Kong vs Godzilla, I watched Mothra vs. Godzilla ,Ghidorah the Three-Headed Monster, Invasion of Astro-Monster, Ebirah Horror of the Deep,Son of Godzilla and Destroy All Monsters at a local movie theater in 1960`s when I was a primary school pupil. There were good old days in my life.
He didn't. Or to be more accurate the fight simply stops and back in 1962 no one cared about such things like "fight record" it wasn't until some 20 years later when we someone from the crew commented on the ending and called it a draw.
Imagine if the new GvK started out with the 1962 GvK battle and then slowly faded to the new one , that would have been a cool love letter to the showa fans
Man I'd hate to be a homeowner in Japan in the 60's. With giant monsters destroying property on a regular basis, insurance rates must've been through the roof.
I watched the 1962 King Kong vs Godzilla when i was a kid in the 90s. I was like wtf is this comical fight and was left disappointed. I definitely loved the new Godzilla vs Kong because it fulfilled my childhood dream of an epic fight. However, despite my disappointment with the 1962 film, I have to give TOHO credit because we would not have gotten the 2021 film without this 1962 film.
I had the dubbed version on VHS when I was little kid and looking at this makes me realize how much I couldn't see because that version wasn't in widescreen. There are so many shots here where Godzilla and Kong are onscreen at the same time whereas in the exact same scene on the VHS you can only see one of them because 45% of the damn screen is cut off. It's also weird not hearing The Creature From The Black Lagoon music since I watched that version a couple hundred times.
I remember how in the American version the guy with the camera said as he and his colleagues were watching that first battle said 'It's like fighting a flamethrower'.
Even though King Kong won, him and Godzilla falling into the sea and King Kong swimming home was not really a thrilling way for Kong to win. Like Mothra he could have defeated Godzilla in a much thrilling way then that!
To this day I still love this movie! So funny now, but when I was little it was scary lol. Now the new movie is even better, but I still like them both
Finally! Someone Who Doesn’t Use The US Version and Only The Original 1962 Japanese Version!
Don't blame those people. Blame the ones who decided to make the US version, and the ones who made the original so expensive to buy on DVD
Oh, and I forgot the ones who made the Japanese version so obscure to find naturally

I saw this movie with my dad on dvd on 2017 and I’m 11 years old now and my dream is to work for TOHO Studios but they don’t do this anymore 🥲
Did the movies look real for you at that time
@@MasterfulLycan I was too young to discern between fantasy and reality. So Godzilla looked so real at that time.
@@MrEjidorie have you watched any of the other toho Godzilla movies when you were younger?

SOME PEOPLE MIGHT THINK IM CRAZY BUT I LIKE 1962 BETTER
U r crzy
ur not crazy and ur not alone with this opinion
Same I love old movies but they don’t do these anymore and my dream is to work for TOHO Studios😢
Same tbh 😊
I like this one too because it looks like theyre fighting in a boxing ring when they were doing those poses at the start
This is much better than 2021 kong vs godzilla
Worst take I have ever heard.
@@Brandon-k9u Its a joke bro
no it's not
8:29 kong stuffs a tree down godzillas throat, this is peak comedy
Seriously missed opportunity that they didn’t recreate that in Godzilla vs Kong
@@tombruncker7013 they did, but with Kong's axe

This is one of the funniest and most entertaining things I've seen in my entire life 😂😂😂
But the sad thing is that is only Godzilla rose from the water meaning...
King Kong died
@@Blackhatcinnamonroll foi o contrário.
6:38 I love the 60's
Me too!
Best fight scene of all Godzilla movies.
1:41 I love to see Godzilla clap 😂
1:56 funny how kong just walks away scratching his head
I just the impression he's thinking in his head "well shit"
@@dwarfminerwillieI said the same thing to myself
8:40 King Kong : " alright punk , You wanna see some judo ? I'll show you some "
This is still pretty good for it being 62 years old
this has to be the funniest fight scene ever
It's cool ..even for the times.
@@phnx4lifelol noooooo.
One of the most realistic and epic fight scene of all times.
10:08 is the best part
1:41 Godzilla victory dance
Godzilla awesome
i am a really big monsterverse fan and this old clasic movie means alot to me😀
I love Godzilla stuff, I even have Godzilla toys!
Props to the guys who made these suits, they are robust
I love how kong falls by his own throwing of rock
It looks like that's what happened, but it was Godzilla swiping his tail at Kong's feet. Recheck it. 5:30
4:25 - That actually wasn't in the script, Kong's actor simply got so offended that he kicked the rock at Godzilla rather than picking it up.
1962: King Kong win
2021: Godzilla win
Godzilla didn't win in 2021 because megagodzilla interrupt that fight
@@adigod8627 2-1
@@adigod8627 nope it was after the fight re-watch
Godzilla is the all-time winner, and it is settled. I said what I said...!
@aallen1999 noticed how her said king kong not kong so king kong solos🗣🔥🔥🔥
I've watched This film for a quite a while, and i actually like this toho film.
This could be my most favorite video
Sadly the new director who is a Godzilla fan didn’t add this scene
Which scene
Bro why u mad
@@Geck_Gxng he not
@@Geck_Gxng how is he mad

WHAT A CLASSIC!!! This is what living for A Movie for a Sunday Afternoon was all about in the early 70s!!!
I wish there was a gimmick Godzilla 62 toy where you press a button or lever and it does the clap.
this king kong is the strongest
You deserved more subs because this video is a masterpiece
Godzilla doing his dance 0:50
Lol😂😂
A RUclips channel that makes healthbars very accurate! AMAZING!
Thanks
@@CaseyAlhambra why did king kongs health bar dissapear when they fell into sea
@@shadowman8535 cuz godzilla slammed his butt into the ocean. Just look again how they enter the water.
@@Vixor_17 but godzilla is the one who died/got knocked out, not kong, you can see kong swiming away, also TOHO confirmed how kong won
@@shadowman8535 they said he won, not how. This sounds half assed and likely to please american viewers. But we can agree to disagree.
Outstanding! This is MY Godzilla! You can keep all the modern ones.
The best fight🎉 ever
Bringing back good old memories
I love that godzilla dance and kong
I've watched this whenever it was on TV in the 1970s and here I am watching it again in 2023, lol. Thanks for posting.
This is an S-tier movie. There is no doubt
Ima big fan of Godzilla 2019 2014 2021
La pelea del siglo👽🤖 😎🤜
Kong is smarter, but godzilla is stronger.
Soichi Hirose and Haruo Nakajima is the most best actors of King Kong and Godzilla! Thank you for uploading this!
Это была комедия)))
2:48 I hope Harou Nakajima had health insurance, because that’s gonna hurt.
The only difference is Godzilla,hates electricity. Kong gains strength from it.
How did King Kong win if Godzilla can live and breathe underwater?
He didn't. Or to be more accurate the fight simply stops and back in 1962 no one cared about such things like "fight record" it wasn't until some 20 years later when we someone from the crew commented on the ending and called it a draw.

He walked on the surface calmly knowing zilla was dead or ran away or was knocked out cold
HE ZAPPED GODZILLA TO DEATH!
@@HieMan-g1n King Kong won, toho confirmed it, plus considering kong had electric powers, he probably electrocuted godzilla in water
Godzilla's moveset is amazing!
8:29
King Kong: Eat your vegetables!
Godzilla: *choking in pain*
Man I'd hate to be a homeowner in Japan in the 60's. With giant monsters destroying property on a regular basis, insurance rates must've been through the roof.
A mi me gustan mas las películas antiguas de godzilla 😮.
Wow🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
They will meet each other on 2021 the king
Tho is one of my fav Godzilla incarnation he the first Godzilla to hav colour and a other movie was made based on this one
Which was gvk

This fight will always be hilarious to me
I watched this with my grandfather
The budget on this move must have been Immense!
Fun fact.
This was the first time both Kong and Godzilla were seen in color.
Kong was first in color in the King Kong novelization
And godzilla is so cute when he claps
Godzilla is not cute, he's just cool but the clapping is cute tho

We are witnessing the very beginning of the Godzilla monster battles!
I used to see this movie when I was 2 years old😢😢😢
If it was taken to the ocean Godzilla would've had the advantage
That godzilla lookin goofy
@@weemarko2OnRoblox well Kong is pretty ugly too
0:33 king cecer And Kong have the same roars
Cecer
Godzilla “RUN UP RUN UP!”
Kong “NAH HOW BOUT YOU COME DOWN HERE!” 0:41
Yes i really enjoyed this movie alot.

i thought it was a tie no winner
@@sportsfan-bs9nf originally kong was the winner but toho retconned it into a tie a few years later
I like Godzilla
So Crazy this two,But is so Funny and Good,I Like this!!!
Rumours say that after recording the man in the suit of king kong didn't rose from the water
The puppets were the best part of the movie.
1962 is better then 2021
It’s not then it’s than. Okay?
4:36 godzill and kong hugging
This fight is better than the 2021 they copy the old fight
Godzilla😊
this is a nice video i love it.
ben
When I was a kid I used to like this movie although I was scared of King Kong
Godzilla v Kong 2021 rectifies the sin of King Kong v Godzilla 1962
They look like toys 6:39
This one is way better than the newer one because they didn't change the monster sizes in this one
I love how Kong knocked himself out by throwing rocks too hard.
this is better than the shitty crap I watched last week at the cinema
I love it❤
The flying kick was personal💀 6:39
the actor was mad so he kicked not in script btw
I really think this movie is so funny to watch even though it is short, it makes me laugh every time 😂
10:10 they are so angry they destroy a building
Very cute
The movie that got me to love Godzilla as a child.
1962 is batter than 2021
Godzilla was emoting on Kong at the start fr lol
Wait, so in this movie it’s actually a tie, because Godzilla won round 1 and kong won round 2
Godzilla dead
@@usuario15965 how is he dead.He lives in the water
nah bro if kong had no plot armour and godzilla uses his non existent brain in this movie and uses his A breath.he can kill kong easily
Officially Toho said Kong won overall since Godzilla was technically the villain here. Sadly I don't remember where I read that.
The last one is so funny
Old kong is so funny 😂😂😂😂😂
To this day I still love this movie! So funny now, but when I was little it was scary lol. Now the new movie is even better, but I still like them both
Godzilla is beautifull❤
I'm same age with you. Had same experience. It's a very important memory for me. Because now all my family gone.
I think that the electric charges werent properly rated
