Yes, that was key to the original film's tragedy -- Kong dies with a broken heart. It brings the film full circle for the final line "It was beauty killed the beast" to make sense and resonate better than it does in the '05 remake.
Don't think of the portrayal of the natives being 'racist'--they did, after all, fight Kong with spears while the sailors (armed with guns and all) scrambled to escape
Agreed.I actually thought that the "natives" demonstrated a measure of dignity and a bellyful of courage.Also,he did not mention the very great Negro actor NOBEL JOHNSON who portrayed the chief.
Doesn't help the fact that Charlie the cook tells the crew "Crazy black men been here" so yeah, product of its time?? Yeah it's awkward to say the least.
Your review is SPOT ON friend. I couldn't say it better. This film is utter genius and sheer brilliance, it's mind-blowing that it's made in the early 30's. I've seen it so many times and never get tired of it. "One of the greatest movies ever made and one of the hallmarks of cinema" = FACT.
i absolutely hate to be the “uhum acksually” guy but that plesiosaurs is in fact a sauropod, it was in the water because the general scientific consensus at the time was sauropods were too damn heavy to support their own weight so they had to live in the water to survive, which we later obviously learned was untrue
He could climb the Empire State Building which is like 1000000 times bigger then him but the gate is the same size as the wall why did he not climb over the gate? Weird
now he just needs to do the 2005 and the 2017 versions, the only difference being only the 2005 one is a remake the monsterverse one is a completely different story with some similar if not familiar bits
First of all, I like Charlie in KING KONG -- he lends a bit of humor as someone who doesn't give two hangs about some crazy voyage and just wants to go back to China. His role is bigger in SON OF KONG but that's only because less happens in that film.
WOMEN OF THAT ERA NEEDED A MAN? You need to brush-up on cinematic history. There were independent female portrayals in the 1930s. There were man-manipulators, man-saviors. You probably never saw Davis, Garbo, Dietrich, Lombard, Colbert.. In 14:31 you say that they should have thought about bringing gas bombs in their initial journey into the jungle. THEY DID> Your clip has a gas bomb stopping a charging stegosaurus. There is another scene when Denham is shouting after a sailor who stupidly took the bombs with him as he is desperately running away from a dinosaur.
Besides, Ann was abducted by a giant ferocious ape! She needed rescuing as ANYONE would! KING KONG is a movie to be taken on face value, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. It's what makes it so damn great!
Not to sound like a complete pedant, but the Skull Island village and wall in the 2005 film was not all CGI. Yes a lot of it was, but there were miniatures (just like on Lord of the Rings) and full scale sets for the actors to walk around in. But I do agree that the scale and grandeur 1933 wall and gate set is very impressive, not just for its time but still to this day. Still, I really enjoyed your review and how enthusiastic you were, its definitely one of my favourite films!
Just wanted to clarify in the book “after King Kong fell” it hints that Kong did “something” to Ann. And if you saw the thumbnail you know what I mean. If you still don’t get it let’s just say Kong was sharing his banana.
It is my understanding the Arabian proverb at the beginning was just something Cooper made up. I first saw the movie in 1968. I never once thought the natives were portrayed in a racist manner. They were treated as a civilization and talked to in their own language. They seem very civilized and living as well as they could be given the circumstances. The indigenous people of the 1976 version were borderline civilized while Jackson's 2005 people were simply terrible. At an initial screening, Cooper found that the 'spider scene' totally stopped the pacing of the movie, so he cut it. Good decision. The 2005 kept it and, yes, it completely stopped the forward momentum of the movie. Plus, it was ridiculous. I've never heard that the man portraying the native was almost killed under Kong's foot. I can see that happening, but where did you get that information?
Loved your review. Yes, I agree this is the one that stands above all others. The 1976 and 2005 We're good in their own right, but, 1933 will always be the Masterpiece! One thing I noticed now, being that I just watched Jurassic Park few weeks ago, is the Brontisuares coming up out of the water, in the JP. version it's portrayed as only eating vegetation, not carnivorous as shown in this film.. Well, as you said , it can be overlooked and just enjoy pure Saturday matinee fun munching on Hot Butter Popcorn !
you obsess about silly things, Chinese cook, whats the big deal, Woman as bad luck on board at the time. so what.? dissecting a masterpiece with a exacto knife. forget it, take it as it is or leave.
Well said! This petty nit-picking is so tiresome. We already know it's an old film and only a dummy needs constant reminders of that. I also don't care to be told what 'should' offend me because nothing in KING KONG does. Let's try to lighten up -- we'll sleep better.😊
Fun Fact: There were no special effects when those people kept getting eaten. An actual head was built for the people to climb into when it did those close ups.
The Arabian proverb NEVER existed in the real World it was just made up for the film so i've heard I NEVER forget seeing that Brontosaurus for tHe first time in JURASSIC PARK it was facinating to me & awsome, especially as i was expecting some rubber dinosaur puppet like the one's seen in- THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT.BUT was I wrong. And I'm guessing it must have been the same for audiences way back in 1933 the spectacle and wonder of this film never dates, and when it was released it's safe to say it had the pool to it'self there wouldnt have been another film like it
Willis O'Brien made some of the most stunning movies. It’s a shame not all of them were realized. I would have loved to see some of them be made, even some concepts be realized. Even if it’s in CGI, I’d love to see these ideas be explored.
My favorite character in this whole movie is the Chinese cook because one I laughed when he was yelling everybody on deck! and two the fact that he found Anne’s necklace or bracelet I forget which and he surmises that Anne was captured and lets everybody know if he hadn’t done that they would not have known that Anne was captured by the tribe in time.
Have you ever been out in the wilderness w/a woman...King Kong gets it down cold!!! You see, movies from that era didn't know you were supposed to LIE about women, so they told the TRUTH!
I agree about the corny dialogue, I don't know if your aware of the ships course, but it is infact somewhere out towards Sumatra/Borneo in the far east where their supposed to be heading originally on a junk ship, hense a part oriental crew. he's there to add character, sea captain's in this era would need to be bi-lingual as their sailing all over the world, this is a trading vessel bringing back- tea, rare animal species etc from the lesser known parts of the World. kong mistakes the train for another animal threat & so attacks it. "what did you make of the embarrasing 1976 version? if youve seen it
is it just me or dose his audio get a bit inconsistent in like volume or that? like in this one mainly when he is saying the line about "...in the edit"
So are you excited to review destroy all monsters or your just neutral to be honest final wars is D.A.M done right being a gigantic monster bash but actually be awesome
Actually, the jaw breaking has only been done in: -The original 1933 film -King Kong Escapes -The 1976 remake -The 2005 remake He tried but failed to do it in a few of the rest.
No. King Kong is not a "Kaiju character". The Kaiju are a thoroughly 20th century concept, who represent absurdly oversized & overpowered entities of nature with world ending abilities. Kong does not meet this standard. Kong is actually a product of late 19th century "Lost World" literature that became popular in a post-Darwin society. For this reason, I've long argued that forcing Kong into Godzilla's universe for an ultimate battle between the two is a bad idea. It's because King Kong doesn't belong in the Kaiju genre. The only way to make it work would be to compromise and alter the characters so much that you'd inadvertently be losing something central to them in the process. Kong represents the wonders that nature can produce when left alone and isolated from man. Godzilla represents nature's fury on a scale so immense that it can destroy mankind; as retribution for things such as exploiting nature, global warfare, and man's reckless use of fundamental aspects of the universe such as nuclear energy.
Let me just flex my advanced 2019 philosophy for 5 minutes, jeez for a guy who complains about it's taking to long for the movie to get to the monster scenes he sure likes to dragggg his videos out with "Women aren't objects!" and "Why is this movie from the 1950's sooooo politically incorrect!" just get to the point man! good video otherwise.
4:13 Alex: "You would say this movie is really kind of slow to start..." Peter Jackson: "Allow me to introduce myself!" 10:55 The man was only halfway up the tree when the bronosaurus nabbed him. Presumably his intention was to climb out of reach. 12:02 Percy Jackson, you say? 😕
13:28 You might say that these scene is better consider this is more Natural with grapling and kicking than punching. However don't forget this scene is also dated consider the poster of the T-rex. Yeah you might think I may nitpick, but the reason för Peter Jacksons were little more realistic, he prat med Lottie more of T-rex and added those in the remake, even gave the name of the three fictional Dinosaurs Kong fight from T-rex to Vastatosaurus Rex, meaning Ravager lizard/reptile King(Dinosaurs/Pterosaurs and Plesiosaurs are reptiles, not lizards. Maybe update that in the 2005 film, and research some of the creatures names ) because of the evolution of the Tyrannosaurid family. P.S Stop calling Pterosaurs(example Pteranodon) as "flying Dinosaurs". Sure they are flying reptiles, but just because both species lived together in the same periods in Mecozoic era and are cousins, doesn't mean they are Dinosaurs. There's a bit difference. Anyway, love your videos, and hope you reply on this, just jeep in mind that I trying to help you from misconceptions.
It definitely isnt fair to say cgi is lazy or doesnt take as much effort as practical effects when its the exact opposite. Any vfx artist will tell you. A good example is that in godzilla 2014, if they had animated godzilla entirely on one computer it would've taken well over one hundred years to complete even with godzillas bogus screen time amount.
why is the audio messing up when ever he cuts to joke or refference clips? Like the simpsons one, omg it sounds like my old 2001 laptop trying to play 1080p videos.
Some of the original models were used in Black Scorpion, but not footage. I'm now of the opinion that the spider pit scene was never filmed. In a discussion with Fay Wray in the late 80's that my brother set up he asked her about it (as we were curious ever since still shots occurred in early 70's horror magazines). She stated she had never seen or heard of that scene/footage (of course, her character wasn't involved in the scene) but she had seen cuts prior to initial test audiences and was at initial previews and it was never seen, let alone shown and then cut as the story goes. Other evidence suggests it omitted from later scripts and while some models were done and test stills taken, it was determined that the expense and effect on pacing warranted not pursuing it. Other stories of test audiences reacting so strongly so it had to be cut are inconsistent and is not really any more horrific than other elements. There was a lot of hyperbole and legends that grew around this sequence, but I'm now of the opinion it doesn't exist because it was never actually filmed. I would love to be wrong, but that's my conclusion after almost 50 years of trying to track down all details.
I hate king kong and I have absolutely no freaking idea people can thing that a monkey can defeat a giant skyscraper sized radioactive lizard that can kill a giant three headed space dragon
Thought the fact that even Ann didn't sympathize with Kong at all made it all the sadder.
This is where the remake screwed up. Not only is the pacing better in the original, only the audience sees the true tragedy of Kong.
Yes, that was key to the original film's tragedy -- Kong dies with a broken heart. It brings the film full circle for the final line "It was beauty killed the beast" to make sense and resonate better than it does in the '05 remake.
Don't think of the portrayal of the natives being 'racist'--they did, after all, fight Kong with spears while the sailors (armed with guns and all) scrambled to escape
Agreed.I actually thought that the "natives" demonstrated a measure of dignity and a bellyful of courage.Also,he did not mention the very great Negro actor NOBEL JOHNSON who portrayed the chief.
Doesn't help the fact that Charlie the cook tells the crew "Crazy black men been here" so yeah, product of its time?? Yeah it's awkward to say the least.
I always laugh at that line!😂
all hail kong the 8th wonder of the world can't wait for the rematch of the century great video alex the hunted
David Brown you never claimed what rematch however I already know what you’re saying
This movie is a masterpiece, I love it!
Your review is SPOT ON friend. I couldn't say it better.
This film is utter genius and sheer brilliance, it's mind-blowing that it's made in the early 30's. I've seen it so many times and never get tired of it.
"One of the greatest movies ever made and one of the hallmarks of cinema" = FACT.
14:50 that's a plesiosaurus and it's a marine reptile not a dinosaur.
I've never noticed that before. I've always heard it referred to as a giant snake, but he does have 4 flippers.
Ok he didn't notice its a plesiosaur so he can call it a snake like dinosaur
Well, it was a dinosaur in this film.
i appreciate your scientific accuracy 👍👍👍
i absolutely hate to be the “uhum acksually” guy but that plesiosaurs is in fact a sauropod, it was in the water because the general scientific consensus at the time was sauropods were too damn heavy to support their own weight so they had to live in the water to survive, which we later obviously learned was untrue
8:47 The villagers had build the wall big enough just to keep Kong out, but yet they made the door big enough for Kong to walk through...
Go figure...
He could climb the Empire State Building which is like 1000000 times bigger then him but the gate is the same size as the wall why did he not climb over the gate? Weird
@@anthonyandronaco9336
Yes, and there's that as well...😆
now he just needs to do the 2005 and the 2017 versions, the only difference being only the 2005 one is a remake the monsterverse one is a completely different story with some similar if not familiar bits
2017 also has the most hideously looking critter. brie larsons laughing face, when she makes photos of the natives. the horror.
The Chinese guy actually reappeared in the sequel “Son of Kong” where he’s given somewhat of a bigger role
First of all, I like Charlie in KING KONG -- he lends a bit of humor as someone who doesn't give two hangs about some crazy voyage and just wants to go back to China. His role is bigger in SON OF KONG but that's only because less happens in that film.
The #1 rule of history. You can never judge the past by modern morals
Right -- it's called 'presentism' and it's responsible for so many distorted historical perceptions.
Peter Jackson, not Percy Jackson.
Peter Jackson: Sea of Kongs
Man has every right to bend nature to his will since we have a soul and the ability to think abstractly and Reason!
The Simpsons clip was muffled by the way
oh god damn it fuck it this video has been a nightmare to make just leave it
Okay man, I still enjoyed the video xD

This Stop Motion effect is weird as hell! CLASSIC!
King Kong....the biggest simp ever...but still love the movie...
ive been experimenting with stop motion and wow, they did amazing with this, especially with the big stop motion
Brontosaurus does not eat meat. It eats plants.
It is my understanding the Arabian proverb at the beginning was just something Cooper made up.
I first saw the movie in 1968. I never once thought the natives were portrayed in a racist manner. They were treated as a civilization and talked to in their own language.

excellent review man. you really respect this film. This was one of my faves.
How is showing Native African culture racist? ❄️❄️
People really lived like that in 1933.
Thank you.😊
he did bring the gas bombs when they went into the jungle. They fell into the lake when the Brontosaurus attacked the raft.
It tooks 7 years to complete.
Wouldn't the blondes arm rip off when kong takes her from her binders. Hmm
I get it Ann's beauty was so pretty Kong couldn't fight well!
you obsess about silly things, Chinese cook, whats the big deal, Woman as bad luck on board at the time. so what.? dissecting a masterpiece with a exacto knife. forget it, take it as it is or leave.

Hey Alex. Great review! Can’t wait to see your assessment of Destroy All Monsters.
great job! love your enthusiasm!
The tribe leader also seems to have tubas on his feet
Destroy all Monsters! You lucky dog!
What about Gertie the Dinosaur? Maybe she's first.
Technically dinosaurs are not monsters
Fun Fact: There were no special effects when those people kept getting eaten. An actual head was built for the people to climb into when it did those close ups.
I heard that they almost suffocated to death behind the scenes
The Arabian proverb NEVER existed in the real World it was just made up for the film so i've heard
I NEVER forget seeing that Brontosaurus for tHe first time in JURASSIC PARK it was facinating to me & awsome, especially as i was expecting some rubber dinosaur puppet like the one's seen in- THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT.BUT was I wrong.
And I'm guessing it must have been the same for audiences way back in 1933
the spectacle and wonder of this film never dates, and when it was released it's safe to say it had the pool to it'self there wouldnt have been another film like it
“You’ll be constantly surrounded by seamen” that was the most obvious joke I guess
It's not a Kaiju if it wasn't made in Japan. And the term is Daikaiju.
Great review. I did laugh, though, when you called him Percy Jackson.
Willis O'Brien made some of the most stunning movies. It’s a shame not all of them were realized. I would have loved to see some of them be made, even some concepts be realized. Even if it’s in CGI, I’d love to see these ideas be explored.

"what did you make of the embarrasing 1976 version? if youve seen it
This is a great idea of reviewing a 1933 movie
The gate from King Kong was destroyed in the burning of Atlanta scene in Gone With The Wind....such a waste
Pardon me, but is Ann supposed to be nude in the thumbnail? I ask because that's what it looks like.
Oh come off it! I love when the planes get that Bloody Ape!!!
King kong eats people? No wonder the simpsons king Kong homer ate people
Man, I loved that King Kong that PERCY JACKSON did.
is it just me or dose his audio get a bit inconsistent in like volume or that? like in this one mainly when he is saying the line about "...in the edit"
The wheel was so close to Godzilla vs. Hedorah! I want to see you review that more than any other movie
Some how they made the gate when it was the great depression
12:03 Percy Jackson?! XD
King kong ded
It’s a Kong Gong
Recently saw this in the theater. Awesome.
2:57, 😳😳 ayo
Finally glad your back in business Alex your and awesome reviewer
So are you excited to review destroy all monsters or your just neutral to be honest final wars is D.A.M done right being a gigantic monster bash but actually be awesome
Actually, the jaw breaking has only been done in:

Thay is something wrong Aladdin and the simpoes in your video
why is the audio messing up when ever he cuts to joke or refference clips?
Like the simpsons one, omg it sounds like my old 2001 laptop trying to play 1080p videos.
This is only my opinion, but I preferred the 2005 remake over this.
When my brother Carlos died, I would say: Oh no, It wasn't the killers. It was Death kill the Beast.
5:39:😂.
Hey Alex I am kinda curious do you plan on reviewing the kong remake?
😊
Great review man (btw gorillas dont climb)
least in a analisas or something of the 2005 film, the play is suppose to be a show about retelling the expedition to the island
Noble Jones walking down the steps to the sound of the Tuba is an awesome scene.
The village in 2005 wasn’t cgi
I hate that people consider Kong a kaiju when he's NOT
Uhhh, yeah he is.
Edit: I mean, the version in King Kong vs Godzilla is. The 2005 and 1933 versions aren’t. I would consider 2017 Kong to be a Kaiju.
May this be the best movie for millions of years
Twas beauty confused the beast.
19:57 Godzilla ain't got shit on me!
nature is Britney, ie leave nature alone! :P
Would you consider this better than Godzilla (1954) or the other way around.
***** Agreed
AT LONG LAST! IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!
Diddy Kong is in the movie!!
hey.... say... i guess i love you.
My favorite movie of all time
Ring the gong to bring King Kong
16:05 Oh, stop whinging. They dropped from an overhang. There's no telling how deep the water beneath might be!
Even if it was deep, hitting water from high up is just as bad as hitting concrete
The audio messed up
yay you're back
and destroyah
I prefer the 2005 remake, mainly because of how creepy Jackson made Skull Island & it's denizens.
first
Am I the only one who actually like the 2005 remake?
no ,,peter jackson and one cinema cleaner ,,, but she was busy cleaning vomit off the [ick n mix too
It's a pity "The Spider Pit Sequence" was cut from the original. Some of the original footage was used in "The Black Scorpion."
Some of the original models were used in Black Scorpion, but not footage. I'm now of the opinion that the spider pit scene was never filmed. In a discussion with Fay Wray in the late 80's that my brother set up he asked her about it (as we were curious ever since still shots occurred in early 70's horror magazines).

There was a lot of hyperbole and legends that grew around this sequence, but I'm now of the opinion it doesn't exist because it was never actually filmed. I would love to be wrong, but that's my conclusion after almost 50 years of trying to track down all details.

It’s PETER Jackson
I hate king kong and I have absolutely no freaking idea people can thing that a monkey can defeat a giant skyscraper sized radioactive lizard that can kill a giant three headed space dragon
Remember JAPAN WAS A LITTLE TOWN AT THE TIME AND AMERICA WAS EICH
