Kong: Skull Island - Part 1

[Boom]

The fact that most people on here are iffy about it means it will make millions with John Q. Moviegoer. I forwarded this thing to my dad and responded with "we definitely gonna see this."

Right.

SHH: "This movie is going to make all the money!"
*movie underperforms*

SHH: "This movie is going to bomb so hard."
*movie sets record*

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Who saying this movie is going to bomb? I think Power Rangers is going to bomb but this movie? I doubt that it will. I think it'll do fine.

 

[lime]

Are there any 1080p download links for the trailer?

Yeah, WTH?

That's where I am too, I have no idea what to make of the trailer. The John C Reilly stuff was just weird...

Weird trailer. It's all very pretty though.

John C. Reilly just really threw the whole thing off for me. I feel like if you took his bits out of the trailer, I'd have a pretty clear view of the movie, but the comedy of his scenes seemed so broad...

Pretty much all this. Visiaually to me looks beautiful and I love the look and approach of Kong and the other creatures and the tribe living on the island. But Reilly and the humor really make it weird and throw me off.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Has Brie Larson said anything yet? I thought she was suppose to be the main character?

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Yeah, WTH?

I guess some believe that disliking a trailer automatically means that you think that a film is going to bomb?

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

Has anyone done a larger gif of Kong roaring at the end of the trailer?

Is WB involved with this? That would explain it.

A super weird trailer. Hope the movie is a lot more cohesive than what it looks like right now.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I really liked the trailer, even with the bad attempt at the Hopper character from Apocalypse Now.

You can't judge the movie's editing by the way a trailer's edited though.

Usually WB cuts way better trailers. I'm assuming that WB had something to do with the trailer.

I feel like such a Buzz Killington. I don't like the Ghost in the Shell trailer and I don't like this trailer.

It was a joke about WB fans being sensitive about any perceived "shot".

As long as you didn't hate the BatB trailer, we are okay, Queen Buzz of Killington.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I'm personally overjoyed that Dr. Steve Brule is finally making his silver screen appearance. Long overdue IMO.

 

[marcvader]

Regardless of all the "weirdness" or trailer editing, this looks like a fun movie to me.

My point is, Larson is not the star of this film. Larson was only a well reviewed indie actress before the Oscar win. I think Larson will have a good sized role but I think she is going to be "the girl" of the film. Not saying it's going to be a bad version of that character because I don't know.

I don't think she was only an indie actress.. she was in 21 jump street. A pretty big studio film.

I know the room is an indie film but I always feel once a film wins an oscar it becomes more mainstream.

She is one of few young actors/actresses I activilly seal out her work. Hope this is a hit for her sake, also I wanna see a F&@* load of giant spiders.

Okay I'll admit it, Disney paid me to say something negative about the Skull Island trailer.

I love Brie Larson but she is not A-list yet. And she damn sure wasn't what she signed up for this movie and shot it. That's not me being disrespectful that's reality. Yes she had small side roles in Trainwreck and 21 Jump Street but she had never even been the co-lead in a big hit movie before. I don't even know why we are I suppose disagreeing.

Scarlett Johansson is about the only actress I would call "A-list"

But Brie is on the path. (If she doesn't fall down the "she's the marvel girl" rabbit hole)

IMO she was the third lead in jump street but some can say it was Franco, I always judge wether or not my parents know who they are then they've hit it kinda big, my parents don't know who Paul Rudd is and have seen ant man, but they know Brie. Than again they've seen the room so it might be grading on a curve here

I like the new trailer a lot --it gave a feel of all round family action adventure, tonally it seems to be similar in vibe to Sommers' 'The Mummy'. I hope that JC Reilly and Samuel Jackson do not overdo it though.

This film is a guarantee box office smash though.

This movie really doesn't have much wiggle room at the box office. Beauty and the Beast comes out a week later and that's going to decimate everything in its path. March is going to be a busy month this year in general. Not saying Kong is going to flop, but outside of its opening weekend, the odds don't look favorable.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

The film can survive under Beauty and the Beast the same way Sherlock survived under Avatar. Never underestimate WB's marketing when they actually care about their film being a hit. I'm not saying it's going to be a smash or anything but I do think that it could be a Godzilla 2014 style hit.

So not really a hit?

 

[#root]

Well, that was ok, but nowhere near as good as the first trailer... and I agree with the general sentiment about Reilly's character. At least Kong himself still looks great, I really love his design.

And hooray for random giant cows.

That buffalo(?) looks awesome t:.

Also, is John C. Reilly's character already on the island when the others arrive? Definitely looks that way.
