This should be fun

Jokes aside, Is the new Skull Island in continuity with the King Kong (2005)? What is the relationship between this vs film and the King Kong (2005) and Godzilla (2014) films?

Skull Island is a new movie not connected to 05 King Kong. Godzilla (2014) and Godzilla 2 are set in the same universe as Skull Island leading up to King Kong vs Godzilla.

I don't think there is any relation to the 2005 King Kong. Godzilla 2014, upcoming Kong: Skull Island and this are in the same continuity. They are rebooting Kong.
 
Pretty short and to the point as to why he backed this project. :o


Legendary CEO Thomas Tull on GodzillaVsKingKong: http://bit.ly/1NJQ7Mp

Thomas Tull may end up making a fortune on “Godzilla vs. King Kong,” but the Legendary Entertainment founder and CEO admits that he had far more primal ambitions for backing the monster mash-up.


“I’m juvenile,” Tull said at Business Insider’s Ignition conference on Tuesday. “I wanted to see them fight.”
 
I respect that more than any canned response.
 
So will Godzilla shrink, or will Kong be huge?
Since Godzilla's height has already been established in the new film, Kong will have to be bigger. Kong's height had already been increased in the past for when he fought Godzilla. Although last time Kong was grown to 45m to Godzilla's 50m. Godzilla was 108m in the new film.
 
Let's bump this thread with all this kaiju news. May 29, 2020.

So, I'm not certain what this means for Gareth Edwards as director.
 
Was Gareth Edwards ever in the running for Godzilla vs Kong? I know he's set for Godzilla 2 and Tull had said earlier that he wanted Edwards to do a full trilogy, but that was before the Kong crossover plans were announced.
 
We knew 2020, but not the exact date.
 
Legendary has hired a writers' room to break the story for Godzilla vs. Kong. Terry Rossio (Pirates of the Caribbean) is heading the group, which will hatch out the best ideas and story beats for the film. Then a writer will be chosen to write the actual script.

The writers in this group include Lindsey Beer, Patrick McKay & J.D. Payne, Cat Vasko, T.S. Nowlin, and J. Michael Straczynski.
 
Sadly never made. Mechikong actually exists, though.

And there is no way Skull Island is tied to Jackson's film.

Well sort of... there is Armored Mothra that fought Grand King Ghidorah in Mothra 3: Attack of King Ghidorah aka Rebirth of Mothra III.
 
Didn't Terry Rossio work on the original Godzilla 1994 script?

Cool to know he's working with the character again, and hopefully this time it gets off the ground.
 
No.

Godzilla 2 has the prospect of possibly featuring Ghidorah, Rodan and Mothra in one movie and there's no way in hell they're gonna put that aside.
