"Denham decides to pull a Diddy and flee the country" 😂😂😂😂😂
Doc is with the times and we are all here for it allegedly 😂
At first I thought this was a Diddy Kong reference…
An odd thing about KiKo is that he ended up being popular in Japan... 50 years later when he appeared in a series of commercials for Kodak film in the 80s, which then led to merch, such as plush toys.
Wow, pretty interesting. The original King Kong was really popular in Japan too.
That Joe puppet is gorgeous, beautifully animated.
If only Kong were around to swing his son around the city like a baseball batt.
Yep it shows Kong skills when it comes down to improvising.
Can’t wait for the 2005 Kong review, one of my favorite films of all time.
I wish Jackson's "King Kong" had gotten a tighter edit. It drags a little at times, unnecessarily so. At its core, the story is simple: crew of adventurers find a huge gorilla and bring it to New York, where it then wreaks havoc and meets a terrible fate. As much as I loved the film (I saw it three times in the theater), it would have been better if 20 minutes or so had been shaved off the final cut.
I wasn't expecting 3 reviews in 1. A nice treat.
Oh shut up!
LaBelle Helene isn't playing a guitar she's playing a tenor ukulele (possibly a concert ukulele). But given it has 4 tuning pegs instead of 6 it's definitely a ukulele.
Good to know.
I honestly don't know how you haven't reached at least a million subscribers. At the very least. I love your videos. They're creative, informative, and very funny. You're great. Easily one of the best horror channels on RUclips.
I love his videos but he'd h
Ave more subscribers if he posted more than once every couple months
I don’t remember much about the mighty Joe remake but that ending was pretty heartwarming back in the day
I've seen King Kong several times over the years. But have seen Son of Kong only once over 40 years ago. I've seen Mighty Joe Young a couple of times (once the whole movie, second time the latter half on TCM).
I remember when WWOR, channel 9, in NYC would broadcast King Kong every Thanksgiving day. Yes, good times!
the stop-motion animation and all the special effects of this era have a unique feel to them. the creators growing pains are on screen. the films are awkwardly charming even when they're bad. long live harryhausen!
12:42, wow, Kiko knows the tombstone Piledriver!
5:51 1930’s burn!
The ending still gets me to tear up.
Happy 4/20 Doc! 🔥💨
I always thought that the ending of this movie would've been better if instead of seeing a ship in the distance, they saw Kiko swimming off into the horizon. Denham lead Kong to his death but is able to live knowing his son still lives.
Sadly most Apes can't swim.
I'd love to see you tackle Harryhausen and review The Beast From 20000 Fathoms, the precursor to Godzilla
Wow never would've thought Mighty Joe Young was such a classic!
Looking forward to Godzilla!
The 90s MJY remake is so underrated. Damn good film with unbelievable practical effects. Truly the end of an era before everything went CGI
The Disney Mighty Joe Young is like one of those movies you'd catch once on a channel you never watch and then remember like a decade later
The sequel to be released less than a year after the original. It's still worth a watch.
This might be one of your most informative and insightful videos yet! I learned so much about Old Hollywood and the monster film genre.
Carl Denham: Sorry I killed your dad
Kiko: Thats okay, I never loved him anyway.
@4:00 - He says "Forget the world war" referring to WW1. Interesting that this was made 6 years before the start of WW2.
Ooh! Ooh! Now do Ed Wood's 'The Bride and the Beast'! Let the diminishing returns rolllll
Thank you so much Doc! I'm lucky enough to have a Saturday off and a review from you. You rock Doc!
Harriehausen even became a vegetarian during production.
What I liked about this sequel was that it showed the consequences of the actions that were taken in King Kong. But that’s the best part about it.
The ending of Son of Kong is pretty epic
While not that great of a movie, it DID give us one of my favorite Futurama lines
"There's only three real monsters, kid: Dracula, Blackula, and Son of Kong!"
Cooper had grand plans for this movie including a scene where the crew enter the now abandoned village and get attacked by dinosaurs who have entered through the gate that Kong destroyed in the previous film, tribal warfare between multiple natives on the island, a dinosaur stampede, and a more vicious baby Kong. But RKO wanted the film out in less than a year and gave him half of the budget of King Kong to make the film. That's why we got this watered down movie which was a pale image of the epic that Cooper had planned.
doc! your reviews are handled with real care. it's very obvious you love what you're doing. you're as inspiring your inspirations! the costume, the persona and the lore are very creative. is there a doctor wolfula digital comic or cartoon?
Basically Mighty Joe was a version of the actual Gigantopithecus...and yes they did exist.
Then there's that Bill Paxton movie about Mighty Joe Young which to me was pretty good.
Spot on about Son of Kong. Movie does pick up once they hit the island, and Willis O'Brian's leftovers are still good. But out of the three, definitly feels like the original Mighty Joe Young is what I'd watch to follow up the original King Kong. And come to think of it, I haven't seen it in decades. Whelp, got a movie night to do sometime.
Let’s go been waiting on this banger to drop love you Doc!
Mighty Joe Young's ending always gets me a bit Misty eyed. Truly a classic.
King Koopa: "Monkey!"
Never stop being awesome, Doc! You're a legend!
Your humor is so on point. Loving this ape theme.
Mighty Joe Young looks awesome! I gotta see it!
So wait. Son of Kong had ideas that were reused in the Monsterverse?
Considering Adam Wingard started talking about wanting to do Son of Kong as soon as it was clear Godzilla Vs Kong was gonna get a sequel, yes, yes it did.
All these ape movies were my childhood, and I liked Disney Joe Young film better then the 1949 film but I was 4 years old when watch it so I didn’t know better lol
I think Son Of Kong was rushed out faster than Godzilla Raids Again 😂
Ah, Bannana Oil!
Fantastic doc! I’m loving these Kong vids!
I didn’t know the real life Shrek was in Mighty Joe Young
Son Of Kongs ending & everything on Skull island is genuinely good, its just the beginning thats a slog to get through
Great review doc keep it up old friend
Kong should get a DNA test, ya know, if he wasn't already dead by this point.
Well done, Doctor!!
The natives have no one to blame but themselves for Kong wrecking their village. If they hadn't abducted a woman, the crew wouldn't have to rescue her and use the village for refuge.
I actually enjoyed Son of Kong. I thought it was a pretty good lighthearted adventure flick. The original Mighty Joe Young is great, haven't seen the remake.
It’s funny Godzilla and Kongs both had rush job first sequels.
Son of Kong is a lot like Ghostbusters 2, it's not as good, it kind of tells the same story, but they're worth one viewing. I had no idea Bill Paxton was so much older than Charlize Theron.
Mighty Joe Young is a lot of fun.
Mighty Joe Young is older than I thought 😨 I only know the Disney film
Yeah maybe Donald Trump took inspiration from him he's not about that taking responsibility thing.
Best channel on RUclips.
im enjoying your xfiles retrospective
@@Kylehartman6 oh thank you so much I appreciate it.
Kiko: Next, it's your turn...
(God) Zilla Jr and Mothra Leo: ...
The Original Mighty Joe Young is just so damn good. Id say on equel level as Kong, just not as influential
King Kong
Ki Ko
Kiko
oh my god they were lazy.
I don't know mightily joe Yung was a thing before you mentioned it
Giving you a Like on my birthday Doc
Same birthday as Hitler and the anniversary of the Columbine school shooting. How unfortunate.
@@robjef622 that's great
All hail king Wolfula
Mighty Joe Young is a fun movie
The son of Kong ben around before son of Godzilla.
Good job, doc!
I’m glad you have decided to review more monster movie than trash slasher movies.
Some other classic black and white monster movies that you should review are Godzilla 1954, The beast from 20,000 Fathoms 1953 and Them 1954.
The original crowdfunding
Hello Doc!
Nice.
I want to hear his take on Late Night with the Devil.
You're your man is shiting his pants inside a courtroom he can't wait for like 3 hours to get changed
Who did kong mate with and who delivered the little tyke?
In the words of Weird Al: Jurassic Park is frightening in the dark, all the dinosaurs are running wild.
It may not be the classic that original was, but is still important for a number of reasons. Firstly the idea of sequels wasn't very prevalent at the time, so if this didn't happen we may not have had the refined sequels we got in later decades. Secondly I really find the thought of the consequences of Kong's rampage being looked at quite interesting
A blind director ?? That was the plot in a bad Woody Allen movie ! 🤔🤷♂️✌️
There are good woody Allen movies?!?!? 😅
@@Thecatdrums3 Yeah, there are :)
Wow, a Son of Kong review that's as long as the material worth talking about.
I like Son of Kong but I'm in no way deluded about it. I think it's hilarious that Carl Denham got a love interest... how far do you have to sink in life that hooking up with him is up?
"I had a successful trained monkey, no, my act followed a successful monkey act. Then I lost everything, including my father and I had to choose starving to death on a tropical island.... or getting with the old white man. Denham won best out of 5, it was close."
I’d still rather watch Son of Kong than play Rise of Kong
Yeah usually whenever something says the son of something it's not always the best.
... Why does Kong's son have nipples?
❤😊
Yeah the moral of the movie is if you're a white guy then your chances of forgiveness and redemption increases 100 fold.
Says the racist.
The cash grab sequel that started all cash grab sequels. Yet it’s not even that bad really. It’s just underwhelming compared to the original film.
Great work on this one. You really do spoil us, Doc. Watching again now.
