1. Denham's descent into madness is interesting, especially with having him act as a pilot during the climax. 2. The epilogue is a nice compromise for a Disney-fied Kong story. 3. Very clever ideas for the songs and their placement. Although, I think the squirrel could've been mentioned a little more. Would it have snuck onboard after Kong's capture or just remain at Kong's side during the trip? Would it have been stuck in a cage during Denham's show and found a way to escape it and try to free Kong? Does it join Kong and Ann on the Empire State Building? Besides that, awesome job on this concept you two!
I personally think it’d be a bigger punch to let the squirrel stay on Skull Island and mourn along side the natives while they perform their song and see it whimper in sadness and maybe crawl on the shoulder of one the natives for comfort.
That poster looks sick! Looks just like it could be a real renaissance-era Disney movie, All we need now is Son of Kong as the direct-to-video sequel to make it even more authentic XD
Yes the poster is so awesome and I would love to see disney doing a hand drawn animated movie adaptation of king kong with both hewy and jack involved.
@@ShinGhidorah17 yes I would love to see Disney doing a hand drawn animated movie adaptation of King Kong is so awesome and the story Hewy and Jack did is worth being turned into a movie and it makes me feel like I wanna watch it now.

Wonderful collaboration, gentlemen!! This actually made me want to watch a bunch of 2D animated classics. Though mostly Tarzan and Atlantis. The amount of clever editing and visual allusions shows what kind of film this could be if given the right level of care. And just one word for Denham in this version: DAMN...
@@jswatch9270 He's an animator who worked on Beauty and the Beast, The Prince of Egypt, The Lion King, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Klaus, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Little Mermaid, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, Wolfwalkers and a few episodes of Adventure Time, Regular Show, Samurai Jack, Gravity Falls and Steven Universe.
Why no insect pit scene? There's a way to do it without actually showing anything graphic. I'd have everything cast in shadow. You see the outline of bugs, crabs, worms, cephalopods, etc. Their creepy yellow eyes glowing. You hear the screams of sailors snatched up into the darkness...
Wow just wow, that was literally the best let’s talk video I be ever seen . Your synopsis was so amazing that I could literally imagine myself seeing it on screen and I think that if Disney does do this they could take some elements from the 1996 film. Like when Jack and Ann are bonding on the voyage to skull island Jack can mention that he use to be a war veteran and lost so many friends , which is why he turned his attention to being movie star in order to cope. Also that fan made Disney poster at the end was so amazing and breathtaking, makes me wish that we got an animated Disney version of “King King” ( maybe some day we will). And for my book series , thinking of a scene where Kong is shown in a county fair set in Central Park with everything , rides, parades, music , everything.
For such a long movie as the 2005 version was, I feel it needed both an epilogue and a final comeupeance for Denham. You two just made it perfect, specially with that poster. Now you made me feel nostalgic for a movie that never existed. Edit: BTW, any idea about when does King Kong enter the public domain?
The Trademark status of Kong himself is quite complicated, but from what I can tell, the original novel is in the public domain, and barring any companies lobbying for further copyright extensions, the 1933 King Kong movie should enter public domain in 2029.
@@BigJackFilms I LOVE this idea for King Kong as an Animated Movie, Disney or Not. If I were to suggest an idea for this concept, how about including a short scene of King Kong looking over the skulls of his past brethren, like the Peter Jackson movie, to go with Anne and Kong trying to know about each other? Like the idea of the Natives mourning the loss of their God, it would give some levity to the idea of how Kong's life would affect the world he lives in.

I know this is a wacky and far out there idea, but how about King Kong: the 8th wonder of the universe? This is king Kong with a futuristic sci fi aesthetic. The plot would be similar to the 70s remake in that Carl Denham and Captain Englehorn are on a space exploration mission to find more natural resources for earth. They learn of a planet in a nearby solar system similar to earth with a face that looks like a skull. Ann Darow could be a biologist this version. Instead of dinosaurs, Kong could fight some cool alien creatures. Kong's design I would make it a monster gorilla with a few subtle alien touches, like the eyes are slightly shaped differently. The movie could still tackle issues like exploration and exploitation of the environment and animal cruelty. I'm thinking king Kong meets James Cameron's avatar.
Thanks for the shoutout, Jack & Hewy! It was an amazing surprise! Been awhile since I’ve uploaded to RUclips but I’d love to come back to making reviews and fan film ideas once I can carve out free time to do so. Great job on the video and can’t wait to see what’s next!
You know the part about Kong not dying in the film? It could be considered as a plot twist. If you ever played Peter Jackson's King Kong the game, you are aware that there's an alternative scenario of after Kong knocks out several airplanes, the search light come on the building to make Kong more visible for the planes to target. Just when Kong was about to meet his fate, Jack and Engelhorn arrive in the sea plane to aid Kong by taking out the search lights and shooting down the other airplanes. This gives Kong a moment of opportunity to climb back down the empire state building with Ann and then taken back to Skull Island.
Wow...why isn’t this a thing?! I can imagine it all in my mind, songs are hard to come up but the animation, character designs, voices and story I can see it all. And that poster at the end, that’s is just well made and looks like an actual Disney film.
I’d highly suggest you’d have to watch the rest of the video before you see what I have to really say. 22:13-22:42 Wow, did not see that coming. Such incredible work by PIRATEHEARTS.
Amazing job, guys! Your concepts are great, and it makes me really wish this happened back in the 90s or 2000s. I'm a sucker for the late Phil Hartman's voice over work, like you discused in part 1. Great use of preexisting Disney footage and music definitely helped me envision your ideas. Not sure how I feel about the squirrel, though. I even have ideas for Disney's Godzilla, using similar aspects and careful consideration as this. I'd consider it a spinoff of sorts, but no crossover. It would have Atlantis vibes, but more along the lines of The Iron Giant, which is set in the 1950s and NOT a musical. I would like it to give Godzilla sympathy akin to Kong.
Not a bad idea. But how about somethimg new, and not like the Leviathan from Atlantis the Lost Empire or the Heisei Gamera. I had an idea of giving Godzilla a potentially supernatural origin. You know, like how the people of Odo Island view the titular monster in 1954. Something of a mythical sea dragon that parallels the natural dangers of nuclear power.
I can't tell if this either the coolest remake/reimageing (I don't care how you spell that word) of King Kong. Or a movie that was too Disneyified for its own good. Plus is it just me or 2:59 the background music in this review. Sound like the music from Whisper: An Elephants Tale? I guess it would be fitting for this video.
Great collaboration you two. I definitely would have called the final song in the film "The 8th Wonder". I would have loved to see this film and always found it a great fit. I like the creativity involved, so I hope you make more original story pitches in the future.
8:47 Where Kong sees a lion who sounds exactly like Ben Stiller, 4 Penguins who are secretly spies, and 3 Lemurs who sings 🎵I like to move it move it, he likes to move it move it, she likes to move it move it, you like to, MOVE IT🎵😂
I had a dumb idea that maybe Kong and his sidekick would have their own inner voice. Kong would basically share his feelings about Ann and tries to learn how to more respectful towards her. One things for sure, I highly doubt Disney would kill off Kong. I know that sounds sacrilegious to keep Kong alive but you know Disney wouldn't kill him, in the same way they wouldn't kill off Ariel in The Little Mermaid or half the cast of Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Your 2 parter video of let's talk of Disney's King Kong is so awesome and the story you and Jack did is worth being turned into a movie and it makes me feel like I wanna watch it now.😉 My idea is that in order for disney to take a break from doing mostly live action remakes I gotta say that disney should turn some Andrew Lloyd Webber's musicals into hand drawn animated movies.

Hey Jack i've recently rewatch your Let's talks about Disney's King Kong vids and it started to remind me of my book trilogy that i'm still working on , and honestly i would be fine seeing it come to the big screen as a full on hand drawn animation film, wether by Disney or another film company , it would be an awesome way to bringing Kong into the art of hand drawn animation, and personally i think you would be proud either way to see this version of Kong come to the screen ( once i've completed the books).
Hi, hello. Back again. Revisiting this two-parter again and, sorry, this feels a bit underwhelming. A good chunk of it is basically beat for beat of the original. New additions or changes few and far in between. I mean, this is Disney we’re talking about. Famously notorious for how much their adaptations are changed from the source material. Lots of creative liberties could’ve been taken or at least you both could’ve gone into more details on your ideas for scenes. I’m probably bitching over nothing, idk. Maybe one day in the future there can be a revision of this idea, like you did with your Lost World vid? Who knows?
I like the idea of the giant squirrel as an animal companion for Kong, all those things Kong does to connect with Ann on Skull Island, and even the part with him walking through a New York City zoo with her. I would have kept Jack Driscoll as the first mate of the S.S. Venture, with a role similar to that of his original counterpart, and had another co-star whom Ann Darrow initially had feelings for (and that guy, of course, turned out to be a jerk). I personally would not have made Carl Denham a villain, just out of respect to Merian C. Cooper upon whom the character was based, but I know that Disney's most realistic and predictable move would be to villainize Carl Denham. I would have kept a lot of the dinosaurs from the original movie like the Stegosaurus, Brontosaurus, Triceratops, and Pteranodon, with a giant snake in place of the Elasmosaurus in the original movie. I also would have used the raptors in a scene where Ann tries to escape Kong and falls in mud, which ultimately leads to her both getting rescued by Kong and washed off in a waterfall like Dwan was in the 1976 King Kong movie. This is when Kong would become enamored by her. Another thing I think would be really interesting to add is to give the Skull Island native chief an adult son named Faraji who acts as a mediating translator between his people and the Venture crew, and later defies his father to help Jack, Carl, and the others rescue Ann. As for Kong's fate, I agree with some commenters that Disney would most likely not kill him off. Like the alternate ending in the King Kong video game, I would have Jack and Captain Englehorn use the seaplane to shoot down the planes attacking Kong. Kong would then climb down from the Empire State Building with Ann and be shipped back to Skull Island.
My Thoughts & Review: Honestly, while the video was great and an entertaining watch, I’m a little bummed you guys didn’t go more into the specifics or depth and detail of the story, as it only barely takes up only 1/2 of the actual video. Much more could’ve been discussed I feel. Cause, aside from a few minor differences and changes (and placement of the songs), it feels like another quick summary of the ‘33 and ‘05 film. This is Disney we’re talking about, a studio known for their drastic changes of the source material. What else could’ve been added? Jokes, action scenes (as this is animation, you can do a lot more and there’s less limitations), what sort of visual gags or running jokes would you add in? So, here are some suggestions and ideas of my own: A few other examples off the top of my head for a point of reference of such action scenes fitting for the film include: the motorbike dog chase from Aristocats; the rescue of Mowgli at the ancient temple and the end fight w/ Shere Khan from Jungle Book; the chase scene w/ Ichabod and the Headless Horseman, and so on. And the prehistoric creatures, which ones would be added in? Maybe even add in a few new faces into the mix. The obscure ones that have not yet been introduced to the public at this time (i.e. what Jurassic Park did for the Dilophosaurus among others). As I’m pretty sure by now there were some new dinosaurs discovered by then (and feathers too). Examples I can think of right now being in the concept art of Dinosaur (2000). What about non-prehistoric beasts too? Like carnivorous plants, deadly insects or others, or monstrous fish or some ravenous reptiles? Now about the side characters (the ship crew/sailors). It would have been nice if this had been talked about and discussed more. What sort of characters they’d be, maybe nothing concrete, but placeholders at the very least. Like scenes for them to shine or what they contribute to the story. Similar to what Peter attempted in the ‘05 remake but w/ a payoff. How about deleted material? That being the test footage by Willis O’brian w/ the hunter shooting the baby triceratops and is chased by the mother. Perhaps a rivalry w/ Jack and one of the sailors/crew members, let’s call ‘em Doug for now, is definitely the most thug-ish of the batch. Seeing Jack as a preppy and over pampered city boy. Being a pitiful excuse of what a man is, compared to himself. Calling him “pretty boy” and other derogatory remarks throughout the journey. A reverse of Gaston in a way, but less focused on looking goo and more on manliness. He definitely wants to start a fight w/ the actor, but doesn’t on account of the deal between Englehorn and Denham that his star not be harmed or his looks compromised. Otherwise Denham will subtract a portion of his payment to the captain ergo a loss of the crew’s payment. As the journey goes on, Doug grows more and more agitated and irritated by Jack’s heroism and bravery. To overcompensate for his “manliness” he shoots at the dinosaurs and other beasts along the journey for no reason other than for the laughs. Among those being a baby trike. He stays back to check out his kill when he is chased and killed by the mother, which in turn chases after the rest of the men to the log bridge. Another nod to the deleted material. To soften Kong’s more antagonistic side, particularly the bridge scene, he is alerted to their presence by his companion the giant squirrel. Having spotted them. He leaves Ann to go and investigate. When the crew are about halfway across, Kong arrives. He doesn’t attack, not right away. Merely observing and assessing them. His presence petrified the men. He loudly roars and pounds his chest. This being to assert his dominance and act as a scare tactic to get them to go away from his turf. Giving them the chance to leave. A few of the sailors panics and fires at him w/ their guns, causing a few others to do so as well. Retaliating by slamming his fist down on the bridge a few times. His way of telling them to go away. Unintentionally loosening the log. It starts to fall. Everyone panics and only a few make it back to the other side, Denham and Englehorn among them, while the rest fall to their doom. Jack, having made it to the opposite side w/o being spotted by Kong, hangs on the side of the cliff. He watches as Kong inspects his gunshot wounds (ala “Kong: Skull Island”). Showing the actor his intelligence as a thinking animal and the hope that Ann is still alive. Kong leaves. Jack soon follows after him to his lair. Perhaps give some mannerisms to the T. rex himself to add some nice additional villain characterization for the lizard king. As to not be just another mindless brute. Show that the beast is a sly, cunning and truly worthy opponent of the 8th wonder. Show it hunting another animal or attacking the crew in a chase scene. I was thinking of Shere Khan or Scar as reference, minus the talking. Ann could even attempt to aid Kong in the fight (somehow) from the sidelines. Now the giant indian squirrel. You coulda discussed their role in the movie. As it feels like he has no impact at all to the overall story. Like, while out on a stroll on their own (w/in Kong’s territory/domain of course) to show the development of the trust between Kong and Ann, the rex attacks and chases after Ann (as for the fight, I was thinking something along the lines of this: m.ruclips.net/video/F8lJOynN3lc/видео.html). Ann is trapped up on a tree. The squirrel being a squirrel, quickly dashes back to Kong’s lair through the treetops and alerts him to the rex’s presence and Ann being in danger (not actually “speaking” to him or vice versa, but more like how Abu and Aladdin communicate and can understand each other). The squirrel being on the sideline w/ Ann and maybe even also going in to aid Kong in the fight in some way. At the end, the giant squirrel (having stowed away w/ Kong) is used in the performance too, maybe as the pre-show as the audience takes their seats. Like those monkeys used to perform w/ street organs. This could even be a nod to ‘Son of Kong’ w/ the monkey show. During the confrontation w/ Denham the lil’ guy escapes and goes to try and unlock Kong’s chains or something. Grabbing the attention of the handlers (the corrupt sailors on Denham’s payroll perhaps?) and is chased around before being grabbed (at the same time as Ann is taken hostage). Enraged, Kong breaks free and escapes. The giant squirrel is about to follow the two, when his attention is caught by Denham. He follows him instead as he suspects the man of being up to something. Kong by now has reached the top of the Empire State Building and is in the middle of battling the biplanes. He reaches up overhead to swipe at the passing planes (piloted by Denham) when he slips and loses his balance. He manages to catch himself but is left momentarily winded, needing to catch his breath as he is starting to weaken from the bullets. This leaves Ann out in the open for Denham to circle back around and take aim. Before he can fire, the giant squirrel jumps out at him. Revealing that he had stowed away in his plane earlier and thus causing Carl to mess up his shot at Ann, allowing time for Kong to climb back up to protect the girl once more. In a daring last minute leap, it’s revealed that he was in reality a giant flying squirrel, landing safely w/ Kong and Ann. In Denham’s disorientation he and another of the biplanes crash into each other in a fiery explosion. ...Maybe even make Ann a POC. Now before you send me off to the mental institute or get after me angry mob-style, hear me out. As this was around the time Disney was getting better at writing female characters, I figured, Disney being Disney, that they might try to do something new and fresh in this take. Much like the Broadway musical (which BigJackFilms had reviewed prior). Ann is still a blonde (it being dyed) and a struggling actress. Only getting bit parts and background roles. She is noticed by Denham as he wishes to spice things up and add some “exotic flavour” to his picture. As I recall the moment from the ‘05 remake one of the investors at Denham’s screening had mentioned a similar notion. This to clue in Denham’s sleazier and crooked side. It can also add some additional weight to Jack’s character too in his decision between his acting career and reputation, or his own personal feelings and happiness. To act as a contrast to Denham’s character. On the boat ride to the island as they’re filming the scenes on the boat, Jack starts becoming smitten w/ the woman for reals. Even using his position and star power to give Ann more leeway in the project w/ either line or script changes for her character. Both are mostly improving their line delivery as they truly start to fall in love. Denham is irked by this but allows it as he knows the man will be the main draw for audiences and needs him in it. This hinting at his growing frustrations and eventual snap. As the bond grows, they begin opening up to one another and their struggles. Ann mentions she’d dyed her hair in an attempt to help her stand out and maybe grab the attention of acting scouts. Ironic foreshadowing, yes. After Ann is taken, most of the crew are hesitant to join Jack because they believe Ann is not worth the trouble. Those that are the first to join are the friends they made on the ship. No one else decides on joining. Before they leave, the other crew members go along after some enticing persuasion from Denham (in song). Using Ann’s kidnapping as a ploy for his own gain (film what’s on the other side of the wall). Everything else plays out normally. That’s about all the ideas/suggestions from me. (19:17) - Cool to see my art in the vid. Nice. 👍 (22:42) - Oh look, it’s me (ArtMakerProductions). Can’t wait for the direct-to-video sequel, Son Of Kong. : D
First off. I absolutely love this video and the previous part. Tho as much as I love your ideas, I’d say this is the one video where I’m glad the ideas being discussed happened in an alternate reality. I don’t want Disney’s hands on King Kong. They’re already corrupt and own way too many IPs as is. I don’t want them going anywhere near Toho or The Cooper estate. They can take everything else, just don’t touch my 2 favorite Kaiju of all time dammit!
Well, Kong will enter public domain this century, just like Dracula, Frankenstein, Oz and many other previously copyrighted works already did before it. When that happens, anyone (including Disney) will be able to shoot a Kong movie. But no matter if any new remakes are good or bad, we'll still have the original classics.
Agreed! I feel it would not be a musical, and more along the lines of the post renaissance Disney movies or The Iron Giant. Perhaps Godzilla is a mythical sea god, or maybe an irradiated freak of nature desrving some sympathy, but no less a major threat to humanity.
Well, didn't think you'd still kill off Kong in a 'Disney' film, but at least you guy made it a little more heart-warming that he was remembered better by everyone in the big apple compared to the sad ending...
I think Jack Driscoll should save Kong in this version, like in the 2005 Peter Jackson's King Kong video game. Ok, I know it would be a pretty different ending, but it's good for a disney King Kong movie
disney version of godzilla i mean every one love disney and godzilla so why not put them in a blend like kong was kaiu and godzilla is akajiu so why not disney make their own godzilla
If I were to pick a composer/songwriter for such an animated film, I would pick Marc Shaiman (Hairspray and South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut) since he did the score for a Disney jungle movie in the 90’s with the live-action George Of The Jungle.
There should also B a song in the scene were there discussing the map of the island & this is a song 4 the comedic sailors, where they describe what Kong would look like through visuals & trippy animation. Think Pink Elephants on Parade & Heffalumps & Woozles rolled into 1 & you'll C what I mean.
Your 2 parter video of let's talk of Disney's King Kong is so awesome and the story you and hewy did is worth being turned into a movie and it makes me feel like I wanna watch it now. Now for the new let's talk, My idea is that in order for disney to take a break from doing mostly live action remakes I gotta say that disney should turn some Andrew Lloyd Webber's musicals into hand drawn animated movies. What do you think?
You would hire Elmer Bernstein, who did the score for The Great Escape, The Magnificent Seven, The Ten Commandments, Michael Jackson's Thriller music video, and Ghostbusters, to do the score for an animated King Kong movie by Disney, even though he already did score a Disney movie back in the 1980s, The Black Cauldron.
Untitled live-action television series (TBA) In August 2022, it was reported that a live-action television series adaptation based on the franchise is in the works for Disney+ from Disney Branded Television and Atomic Monster.
I personally would add the subway train scene in Disney's *"KONG",* but in a reversal to the 1933 & 1976 film, Kong tries to save the train as during the New York chase with the police & army, a tank round accidentally hits the bridge, and after the train crashed, Kong rips the roof loose and freeing the passengers, before he continues to run from the police & army. At least it would help explain why they would make a statue of Kong, with him being called a hero.
@@velociraptor4you3291 Cool, and I gotta say that Disney animated movie adaptation of King Kong should definitely need to happen and after King Kong what hand drawn animated movie adaptation do you want to see Disney do next?
@@velociraptor4you3291 Well my idea is that I would love to see Disney doing a hand drawn animated movie adaptations of Andrew Lloyd Webber's musicals including The PHANTOM of the OPERA. What do you think?

This idea sounds interesting and amazing,however the sad true is that Disney will never being 2D animation again do to the fact that know is a greedy power hungry company.
@@Hewylewis For what I can tell,Disney is using Marvel and Star Wars more that their own brand,it's less likely that Disney are becoming lazy with their animated movies,Ralph breaks the Internet,Frozen 2,and Raya and the last Dragon being bad,awful,and terrible movies that have no heart or soul in them.
@@Hewylewis Then good luck and a word for advice,DON'T like the movie because it has good art and animation because the problem with the movie is the characters,the story,and that it is a ripoff of other movies and series.
Jack, I have a question for you, who knows a lot about King Kong. Is it true that if somebody wants to make a King Kong movie can do it without copyright issues?
I personally would’ve gone with 2 villains Fred Wilson and Carl Denham CB and Freddy Boy are childhood friends chasing their dreams and despite questioning on both ends neither will reveal where the fuck he’s going then when they see each other at the docks there’s a nice comedic moment when they realize that they could’ve just taken the same damn taxi Unfortunately it would appear that Freddy boys chances are shot because the explorer is a little damaged. He laments not being able to make it to skull island on time but Carl’s like “wait that’s where im going!” So Fred and his people from Petrox join in on the Wanderer’s voyage and the crew of the explorer’s like “oh yeah englehorn’s people are always fun, let’s tag along” and Carl being in kind of rush just goes along with it because the police are kinda on their way Later on in the movie when Fred’s oil plan falls through and he gets the idea to capture Kong he radios Carl and Carl’s not too into the idea stating that the Arctic is close by and has some element X deposits that’ll make him loads of money. Fred considers this option but ultimately decides to save it for later still thinking the capture Kong plan is the way to go Then even further into the movie when Carl’s camera is destroyed he reconsiders the idea and is fully onboard with it Then at the end of the movie with Fred Wilson now connected to God’s WiFi a remorseful Carl Denham is left to pick up the slack with criminal charges and lawsuits galore
Very well done guys, BTW, to Hewy Toonmore, since you're a very good animator reviewer, may I suggest what you're next "Let's talk about..." video should be, how about making a crossover with a Godzilla RUclipsr fan like Omniviewer, and think about this title of a film from an AU, "Walt Disney's Godzilla"? Eh? Sounds juts ad, if not more interesting than the one you just did with BigJackFilms' right?
I believe There should be a edit spoof movie to make this come true. Just like the spoofs that some of the other RUclipsrs make spoofs of other movies like All dogs go to heaven and Disney movies.

What's the name of the background music at 4.11 Jack?
Hey BigJackFilms, What different version of the Egg Travel music of Disney Dinosaur did you use at 18:40 - 20:27, i wanna hear that music alone
1. Denham's descent into madness is interesting, especially with having him act as a pilot during the climax.
2. The epilogue is a nice compromise for a Disney-fied Kong story.
3. Very clever ideas for the songs and their placement.
Although, I think the squirrel could've been mentioned a little more. Would it have snuck onboard after Kong's capture or just remain at Kong's side during the trip? Would it have been stuck in a cage during Denham's show and found a way to escape it and try to free Kong? Does it join Kong and Ann on the Empire State Building?
Besides that, awesome job on this concept you two!
I personally think it’d be a bigger punch to let the squirrel stay on Skull Island and mourn along side the natives while they perform their song and see it whimper in sadness and maybe crawl on the shoulder of one the natives for comfort.
That poster looks sick! Looks just like it could be a real renaissance-era Disney movie, All we need now is Son of Kong as the direct-to-video sequel to make it even more authentic XD

22:33 Now that is something I would've love to see on a VHS cover.
Me too
Wow just wow, that was literally the best let’s talk video I be ever seen . Your synopsis was so amazing that I could literally imagine myself seeing it on screen and I think that if Disney does do this they could take some elements from the 1996 film. Like when Jack and Ann are bonding on the voyage to skull island Jack can mention that he use to be a war veteran and lost so many friends , which is why he turned his attention to being movie star in order to cope.
Also that fan made Disney poster at the end was so amazing and breathtaking, makes me wish that we got an animated Disney version of “King King” ( maybe some day we will).
And for my book series , thinking of a scene where Kong is shown in a county fair set in Central Park with everything , rides, parades, music , everything.
Yes I wanna see disney doing a hand drawn animated movie adaptation of king kong with both hewy and jack involved in it.
Yes the fan made poster is so amazing that it's worth being shown to disney expo so Walt Disney animation studios will do this project.
Ah, taking influence from the 1996 script for Disney's Jack, I see.
And then Son of Kong is the straight to video sequel.
Eh, I still waiting for Disney’s Godzilla.
Now King Kong vs. Godzilla would be a direct to DVD sequel, if not the best of the aforementioned sequels.
With Jack and Ann's son befriending the Son Of Kong.
For such a long movie as the 2005 version was, I feel it needed both an epilogue and a final comeupeance for Denham. You two just made it perfect, specially with that poster.
Now you made me feel nostalgic for a movie that never existed.
Edit: BTW, any idea about when does King Kong enter the public domain?
The Trademark status of Kong himself is quite complicated, but from what I can tell, the original novel is in the public domain, and barring any companies lobbying for further copyright extensions, the 1933 King Kong movie should enter public domain in 2029.

@@BigJackFilms I LOVE this idea for King Kong as an Animated Movie, Disney or Not. If I were to suggest an idea for this concept, how about including a short scene of King Kong looking over the skulls of his past brethren, like the Peter Jackson movie, to go with Anne and Kong trying to know about each other? Like the idea of the Natives mourning the loss of their God, it would give some levity to the idea of how Kong's life would affect the world he lives in.
If this was real. This would have been the best. And somewhat darkest disney film.
Jack dude you should do a review on Disney’s dinosaur and the land before time those 2 movies are my favorite dinosaur movies

@@jswatch9270 GOOD 👍
@@superfelipestudios8104 about what?
I know this is a wacky and far out there idea, but how about King Kong: the 8th wonder of the universe? This is king Kong with a futuristic sci fi aesthetic. The plot would be similar to the 70s remake in that Carl Denham and Captain Englehorn are on a space exploration mission to find more natural resources for earth. They learn of a planet in a nearby solar system similar to earth with a face that looks like a skull. Ann Darow could be a biologist this version. Instead of dinosaurs, Kong could fight some cool alien creatures. Kong's design I would make it a monster gorilla with a few subtle alien touches, like the eyes are slightly shaped differently. The movie could still tackle issues like exploration and exploitation of the environment and animal cruelty. I'm thinking king Kong meets James Cameron's avatar.
Thanks for the shoutout, Jack & Hewy! It was an amazing surprise! Been awhile since I’ve uploaded to RUclips but I’d love to come back to making reviews and fan film ideas once I can carve out free time to do so. Great job on the video and can’t wait to see what’s next!
You know the part about Kong not dying in the film? It could be considered as a plot twist.
If you ever played Peter Jackson's King Kong the game, you are aware that there's an alternative scenario of after Kong knocks out several airplanes, the search light come on the building to make Kong more visible for the planes to target. Just when Kong was about to meet his fate, Jack and Engelhorn arrive in the sea plane to aid Kong by taking out the search lights and shooting down the other airplanes. This gives Kong a moment of opportunity to climb back down the empire state building with Ann and then taken back to Skull Island.
Wow...why isn’t this a thing?! I can imagine it all in my mind, songs are hard to come up but the animation, character designs, voices and story I can see it all. And that poster at the end, that’s is just well made and looks like an actual Disney film.
I’d highly suggest you’d have to watch the rest of the video before you see what I have to really say.

Amazing job, guys!
Your concepts are great, and it makes me really wish this happened back in the 90s or 2000s. I'm a sucker for the late Phil Hartman's voice over work, like you discused in part 1. Great use of preexisting Disney footage and music definitely helped me envision your ideas. Not sure how I feel about the squirrel, though.
I even have ideas for Disney's Godzilla, using similar aspects and careful consideration as this. I'd consider it a spinoff of sorts, but no crossover.
It would have Atlantis vibes, but more along the lines of The Iron Giant, which is set in the 1950s and NOT a musical.
I would like it to give Godzilla sympathy akin to Kong.
What if Disney made their own Godzilla. Instead of the atomic origins, how about Godzilla being created by Atlantis.
Not a bad idea. But how about somethimg new, and not like the Leviathan from Atlantis the Lost Empire or the Heisei Gamera. I had an idea of giving Godzilla a potentially supernatural origin. You know, like how the people of Odo Island view the titular monster in 1954. Something of a mythical sea dragon that parallels the natural dangers of nuclear power.
War Eagles... NOW!
I'm surprised Piratehearts didn't post the poster at 22:37 on DeviantArt.
King Kong is public domain
I can't tell if this either the coolest remake/reimageing (I don't care how you spell that word) of King Kong. Or a movie that was too Disneyified for its own good. Plus is it just me or 2:59 the background music in this review. Sound like the music from Whisper: An Elephants Tale? I guess it would be fitting for this video.
Great collaboration you two. I definitely would have called the final song in the film "The 8th Wonder". I would have loved to see this film and always found it a great fit. I like the creativity involved, so I hope you make more original story pitches in the future.
At long last, finally!
8:47 Where Kong sees a lion who sounds exactly like Ben Stiller, 4 Penguins who are secretly spies, and 3 Lemurs who sings 🎵I like to move it move it, he likes to move it move it, she likes to move it move it, you like to, MOVE IT🎵😂

Me too and I agree
hey hewy, big jack. I've always wondered what if don bluth made the land before time into an animated adaptation of jurassic park.
I had a dumb idea that maybe Kong and his sidekick would have their own inner voice. Kong would basically share his feelings about Ann and tries to learn how to more respectful towards her.
One things for sure, I highly doubt Disney would kill off Kong. I know that sounds sacrilegious to keep Kong alive but you know Disney wouldn't kill him, in the same way they wouldn't kill off Ariel in The Little Mermaid or half the cast of Hunchback of Notre Dame.
So, where’s Hewy going next
Yeah boy lets go!!!!
I hope and pray that Disney goes back to hand drawn animation in theaters. :)
I read articles that disney will bring hand drawn animation back and I hope they will do it soon.

Hey Jack i've recently rewatch your Let's talks about Disney's King Kong vids and it started to remind me of my book trilogy that i'm still working on , and honestly i would be fine seeing it come to the big screen as a full on hand drawn animation film, wether by Disney or another film company , it would be an awesome way to bringing Kong into the art of hand drawn animation, and personally i think you would be proud either way to see this version of Kong come to the screen ( once i've completed the books).
I wonder if Denham would make that same face, like Cruella from 101 Dalmatians, while he's about 2 gun down Ann & Kong?
I would love to see a Disney version of Kong! The story is amazing and honestly this could of even be better than the lion king
Hi, hello. Back again. Revisiting this two-parter again and, sorry, this feels a bit underwhelming. A good chunk of it is basically beat for beat of the original. New additions or changes few and far in between. I mean, this is Disney we’re talking about. Famously notorious for how much their adaptations are changed from the source material. Lots of creative liberties could’ve been taken or at least you both could’ve gone into more details on your ideas for scenes. I’m probably bitching over nothing, idk. Maybe one day in the future there can be a revision of this idea, like you did with your Lost World vid? Who knows?
I like the idea of the giant squirrel as an animal companion for Kong, all those things Kong does to connect with Ann on Skull Island, and even the part with him walking through a New York City zoo with her.
I would have kept Jack Driscoll as the first mate of the S.S. Venture, with a role similar to that of his original counterpart, and had another co-star whom Ann Darrow initially had feelings for (and that guy, of course, turned out to be a jerk). I personally would not have made Carl Denham a villain, just out of respect to Merian C. Cooper upon whom the character was based, but I know that Disney's most realistic and predictable move would be to villainize Carl Denham.
I would have kept a lot of the dinosaurs from the original movie like the Stegosaurus, Brontosaurus, Triceratops, and Pteranodon, with a giant snake in place of the Elasmosaurus in the original movie. I also would have used the raptors in a scene where Ann tries to escape Kong and falls in mud, which ultimately leads to her both getting rescued by Kong and washed off in a waterfall like Dwan was in the 1976 King Kong movie. This is when Kong would become enamored by her.
Another thing I think would be really interesting to add is to give the Skull Island native chief an adult son named Faraji who acts as a mediating translator between his people and the Venture crew, and later defies his father to help Jack, Carl, and the others rescue Ann.
As for Kong's fate, I agree with some commenters that Disney would most likely not kill him off. Like the alternate ending in the King Kong video game, I would have Jack and Captain Englehorn use the seaplane to shoot down the planes attacking Kong. Kong would then climb down from the Empire State Building with Ann and be shipped back to Skull Island.
My Thoughts & Review:
Honestly, while the video was great and an entertaining watch, I’m a little bummed you guys didn’t go more into the specifics or depth and detail of the story, as it only barely takes up only 1/2 of the actual video. Much more could’ve been discussed I feel. Cause, aside from a few minor differences and changes (and placement of the songs), it feels like another quick summary of the ‘33 and ‘05 film.
This is Disney we’re talking about, a studio known for their drastic changes of the source material. What else could’ve been added? Jokes, action scenes (as this is animation, you can do a lot more and there’s less limitations), what sort of visual gags or running jokes would you add in? So, here are some suggestions and ideas of my own:
A few other examples off the top of my head for a point of reference of such action scenes fitting for the film include: the motorbike dog chase from Aristocats; the rescue of Mowgli at the ancient temple and the end fight w/ Shere Khan from Jungle Book; the chase scene w/ Ichabod and the Headless Horseman, and so on. And the prehistoric creatures, which ones would be added in? Maybe even add in a few new faces into the mix. The obscure ones that have not yet been introduced to the public at this time (i.e. what Jurassic Park did for the Dilophosaurus among others). As I’m pretty sure by now there were some new dinosaurs discovered by then (and feathers too). Examples I can think of right now being in the concept art of Dinosaur (2000). What about non-prehistoric beasts too? Like carnivorous plants, deadly insects or others, or monstrous fish or some ravenous reptiles?
Now about the side characters (the ship crew/sailors). It would have been nice if this had been talked about and discussed more. What sort of characters they’d be, maybe nothing concrete, but placeholders at the very least. Like scenes for them to shine or what they contribute to the story. Similar to what Peter attempted in the ‘05 remake but w/ a payoff.
How about deleted material? That being the test footage by Willis O’brian w/ the hunter shooting the baby triceratops and is chased by the mother.
Perhaps a rivalry w/ Jack and one of the sailors/crew members, let’s call ‘em Doug for now, is definitely the most thug-ish of the batch. Seeing Jack as a preppy and over pampered city boy. Being a pitiful excuse of what a man is, compared to himself. Calling him “pretty boy” and other derogatory remarks throughout the journey. A reverse of Gaston in a way, but less focused on looking goo and more on manliness. He definitely wants to start a fight w/ the actor, but doesn’t on account of the deal between Englehorn and Denham that his star not be harmed or his looks compromised. Otherwise Denham will subtract a portion of his payment to the captain ergo a loss of the crew’s payment. As the journey goes on, Doug grows more and more agitated and irritated by Jack’s heroism and bravery. To overcompensate for his “manliness” he shoots at the dinosaurs and other beasts along the journey for no reason other than for the laughs. Among those being a baby trike. He stays back to check out his kill when he is chased and killed by the mother, which in turn chases after the rest of the men to the log bridge. Another nod to the deleted material.
To soften Kong’s more antagonistic side, particularly the bridge scene, he is alerted to their presence by his companion the giant squirrel. Having spotted them. He leaves Ann to go and investigate. When the crew are about halfway across, Kong arrives. He doesn’t attack, not right away. Merely observing and assessing them. His presence petrified the men. He loudly roars and pounds his chest. This being to assert his dominance and act as a scare tactic to get them to go away from his turf. Giving them the chance to leave. A few of the sailors panics and fires at him w/ their guns, causing a few others to do so as well. Retaliating by slamming his fist down on the bridge a few times. His way of telling them to go away. Unintentionally loosening the log. It starts to fall. Everyone panics and only a few make it back to the other side, Denham and Englehorn among them, while the rest fall to their doom. Jack, having made it to the opposite side w/o being spotted by Kong, hangs on the side of the cliff. He watches as Kong inspects his gunshot wounds (ala “Kong: Skull Island”). Showing the actor his intelligence as a thinking animal and the hope that Ann is still alive. Kong leaves. Jack soon follows after him to his lair.
Perhaps give some mannerisms to the T. rex himself to add some nice additional villain characterization for the lizard king. As to not be just another mindless brute. Show that the beast is a sly, cunning and truly worthy opponent of the 8th wonder. Show it hunting another animal or attacking the crew in a chase scene. I was thinking of Shere Khan or Scar as reference, minus the talking. Ann could even attempt to aid Kong in the fight (somehow) from the sidelines.
Now the giant indian squirrel. You coulda discussed their role in the movie. As it feels like he has no impact at all to the overall story. Like, while out on a stroll on their own (w/in Kong’s territory/domain of course) to show the development of the trust between Kong and Ann, the rex attacks and chases after Ann (as for the fight, I was thinking something along the lines of this: m.ruclips.net/video/F8lJOynN3lc/видео.html). Ann is trapped up on a tree. The squirrel being a squirrel, quickly dashes back to Kong’s lair through the treetops and alerts him to the rex’s presence and Ann being in danger (not actually “speaking” to him or vice versa, but more like how Abu and Aladdin communicate and can understand each other). The squirrel being on the sideline w/ Ann and maybe even also going in to aid Kong in the fight in some way. At the end, the giant squirrel (having stowed away w/ Kong) is used in the performance too, maybe as the pre-show as the audience takes their seats. Like those monkeys used to perform w/ street organs. This could even be a nod to ‘Son of Kong’ w/ the monkey show. During the confrontation w/ Denham the lil’ guy escapes and goes to try and unlock Kong’s chains or something. Grabbing the attention of the handlers (the corrupt sailors on Denham’s payroll perhaps?) and is chased around before being grabbed (at the same time as Ann is taken hostage). Enraged, Kong breaks free and escapes. The giant squirrel is about to follow the two, when his attention is caught by Denham. He follows him instead as he suspects the man of being up to something. Kong by now has reached the top of the Empire State Building and is in the middle of battling the biplanes. He reaches up overhead to swipe at the passing planes (piloted by Denham) when he slips and loses his balance. He manages to catch himself but is left momentarily winded, needing to catch his breath as he is starting to weaken from the bullets. This leaves Ann out in the open for Denham to circle back around and take aim. Before he can fire, the giant squirrel jumps out at him. Revealing that he had stowed away in his plane earlier and thus causing Carl to mess up his shot at Ann, allowing time for Kong to climb back up to protect the girl once more. In a daring last minute leap, it’s revealed that he was in reality a giant flying squirrel, landing safely w/ Kong and Ann. In Denham’s disorientation he and another of the biplanes crash into each other in a fiery explosion.
...Maybe even make Ann a POC. Now before you send me off to the mental institute or get after me angry mob-style, hear me out. As this was around the time Disney was getting better at writing female characters, I figured, Disney being Disney, that they might try to do something new and fresh in this take. Much like the Broadway musical (which BigJackFilms had reviewed prior). Ann is still a blonde (it being dyed) and a struggling actress. Only getting bit parts and background roles. She is noticed by Denham as he wishes to spice things up and add some “exotic flavour” to his picture. As I recall the moment from the ‘05 remake one of the investors at Denham’s screening had mentioned a similar notion. This to clue in Denham’s sleazier and crooked side. It can also add some additional weight to Jack’s character too in his decision between his acting career and reputation, or his own personal feelings and happiness. To act as a contrast to Denham’s character. On the boat ride to the island as they’re filming the scenes on the boat, Jack starts becoming smitten w/ the woman for reals. Even using his position and star power to give Ann more leeway in the project w/ either line or script changes for her character. Both are mostly improving their line delivery as they truly start to fall in love. Denham is irked by this but allows it as he knows the man will be the main draw for audiences and needs him in it. This hinting at his growing frustrations and eventual snap. As the bond grows, they begin opening up to one another and their struggles. Ann mentions she’d dyed her hair in an attempt to help her stand out and maybe grab the attention of acting scouts. Ironic foreshadowing, yes. After Ann is taken, most of the crew are hesitant to join Jack because they believe Ann is not worth the trouble. Those that are the first to join are the friends they made on the ship. No one else decides on joining. Before they leave, the other crew members go along after some enticing persuasion from Denham (in song). Using Ann’s kidnapping as a ploy for his own gain (film what’s on the other side of the wall). Everything else plays out normally.
That’s about all the ideas/suggestions from me.

Well, Kong will enter public domain this century, just like Dracula, Frankenstein, Oz and many other previously copyrighted works already did before it. When that happens, anyone (including Disney) will be able to shoot a Kong movie.

Makes me wonder what Disney's version of Godzilla would be like if Tristar didn't brought the rights to Toho. Someone needs to make a video about it!
Agreed! I feel it would not be a musical, and more along the lines of the post renaissance Disney movies or The Iron Giant.
Perhaps Godzilla is a mythical sea god, or maybe an irradiated freak of nature desrving some sympathy, but no less a major threat to humanity.
I wish this was a real movie
I know right
Didn't you hear Jack? Kagome Higurashi turned 36 today this year!
You guys did great! Well done 👍🏻
Well, didn't think you'd still kill off Kong in a 'Disney' film, but at least you guy made it a little more heart-warming that he was remembered better by everyone in the big apple compared to the sad ending...
I think Jack Driscoll should save Kong in this version, like in the 2005 Peter Jackson's King Kong video game. Ok, I know it would be a pretty different ending, but it's good for a disney King Kong movie
disney version of godzilla i mean every one love disney and godzilla so why not put them in a blend like kong was kaiu and godzilla is akajiu so why not disney make their own godzilla
If I were to pick a composer/songwriter for such an animated film, I would pick Marc Shaiman (Hairspray and South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut) since he did the score for a Disney jungle movie in the 90’s with the live-action George Of The Jungle.
There should also B a song in the scene were there discussing the map of the island & this is a song 4 the comedic sailors, where they describe what Kong would look like through visuals & trippy animation. Think Pink Elephants on Parade & Heffalumps & Woozles rolled into 1 & you'll C what I mean.
Someone needs to do a fan novel of Jack & Hewy's vision of a Disney-Renaissance *"KING KONG"* remake.
I would love to read that at FanFiction!
Your 2 parter video of let's talk of Disney's King Kong is so awesome and the story you and hewy did is worth being turned into a movie and it makes me feel like I wanna watch it now.

I love the poster art
Or how about a better idea: What if Tim Burton or Steven Spielberg directed "Godzilla (1994/1998)"?
Oh boy, a review of Indiana Jones !!!
Agreed.
You would hire Elmer Bernstein, who did the score for The Great Escape, The Magnificent Seven, The Ten Commandments, Michael Jackson's Thriller music video, and Ghostbusters, to do the score for an animated King Kong movie by Disney, even though he already did score a Disney movie back in the 1980s, The Black Cauldron.
This might be the best idea I've ever heard
A wise man once said "Shut up & take my money!".
Now I can’t help but wonder/imagine what the songster this film would be like , what the lyrics would be , and how they’d sound.
Untitled live-action television series (TBA)
In August 2022, it was reported that a live-action television series adaptation based on the franchise is in the works for Disney+ from Disney Branded Television and Atomic Monster.
Also this is an amazing King Kong / Indiana Jones crossover ( of sorts).
Love the Indy bit at the end. His voice sounds familiar though. Lol
I've never even seen half a sha-bang but, I like this idea. Someone talk to Disney about this idea!
I really like how they used Jane Porter to fill in the role of Ann in this video, I think she makes a great Ann Darrow.
I personally would add the subway
train scene in Disney's *"KONG",*
but in a reversal to the 1933 & 1976 film, Kong tries to save the train as during the New York chase with the police & army, a tank round accidentally hits the bridge, and after the train crashed, Kong rips the roof loose and freeing the passengers, before he continues to run from the police & army.
At least it would help explain why they would make a statue of Kong, with him being called a hero.
I wonder if Kong & The Squirrel would make great summons in a Kingdom Hearts game.😎
They probably would, it IS King Kong, after all.
I now want 2 use Rick's Portal Gun & go 2 an alternate reality, were Disney did make a King Kong movie.
If I ever saw this film when I was young in the 90s, I would have loved it
Now Disney is making a King Kong tv show, so mind blowing
I look forward to seeing where Hewy's travels may take him, as well as the search for the King's Gauntlet...

Jack, I have a question for you, who knows a lot about King Kong. Is it true that if somebody wants to make a King Kong movie can do it without copyright issues?
I personally would’ve gone with 2 villains
Fred Wilson and Carl Denham
CB and Freddy Boy are childhood friends chasing their dreams and despite questioning on both ends neither will reveal where the fuck he’s going then when they see each other at the docks there’s a nice comedic moment when they realize that they could’ve just taken the same damn taxi
Unfortunately it would appear that Freddy boys chances are shot because the explorer is a little damaged. He laments not being able to make it to skull island on time but Carl’s like “wait that’s where im going!” So Fred and his people from Petrox join in on the Wanderer’s voyage and the crew of the explorer’s like “oh yeah englehorn’s people are always fun, let’s tag along” and Carl being in kind of rush just goes along with it because the police are kinda on their way
Later on in the movie when Fred’s oil plan falls through and he gets the idea to capture Kong he radios Carl and Carl’s not too into the idea stating that the Arctic is close by and has some element X deposits that’ll make him loads of money. Fred considers this option but ultimately decides to save it for later still thinking the capture Kong plan is the way to go
Then even further into the movie when Carl’s camera is destroyed he reconsiders the idea and is fully onboard with it
Then at the end of the movie with Fred Wilson now connected to God’s WiFi a remorseful Carl Denham is left to pick up the slack with criminal charges and lawsuits galore
Very well done guys, BTW, to Hewy Toonmore, since you're a very good animator reviewer, may I suggest what you're next "Let's talk about..." video should be, how about making a crossover with a Godzilla RUclipsr fan like Omniviewer, and think about this title of a film from an AU, "Walt Disney's Godzilla"? Eh? Sounds juts ad, if not more interesting than the one you just did with BigJackFilms' right?
Happy birthday
I believe There should be a edit spoof movie to make this come true. Just like the spoofs that some of the other RUclipsrs make spoofs of other movies like All dogs go to heaven and Disney movies.
Very good
Thanks
@@BigJackFilms you're welcome.
YESSSS AT LONG LAST!!!!!
