I like that poster! I seem to remember hearing about this movie for a while.  Hopefully, it is worth watching.

Posters great - i hold little hope that the movie will be, recent remakes have been rather poor. Hope i am wrong

Boom Studios recently released a comic-book adaptation based on Joe DeVito's Skull Island story, which is somewhat different than the story coming to the big screen.

My favorite art from the series is this variant cover by Eric Powell, the creator of The Goon.

Wow that first poster is SICK, I'm in NYC right now and they got posters and digital all over the place. It's crazy.

Hey AJ,

How tall is KONG now in this flick? 1000'?? maybe 1500'? (The posters sure make him look that tall  ;)).

What a change from his original height of a whopping 50 feet.  rofl1

Rumor is that he is suppose to be 100ft tall, but I wouldn't be surprised if he is 150ft. Another rumor is that they made him so much larger for the next flick "Godzilla vs King Kong" where Godzilla is a whopping 300-350ft, so they want KK to appear that he has a fighting chance.

I can't wait for either movies to come out haha.

Yes, he's 100' tall in this new movie.
And apparently he's growing 1' per day so by the time he meets Godzilla (in 2020), he'll be 300' tall.
Might be cool...

I don't like him walking upright though.

A foot per day? That would make sense, I did hear something about that but couldn't verify if that was true or not.

Who do you guys think would win....King Kong or Godzilla?

All Zilla's gotta do is breath on him and old Kong is toast.
It'll be interesting to see if they film alternate endings (Kong wins/Zilla wins/it's a tie)
like they reportedly did in 1962.

So glad to see you found my Mighty Joe Young quad.
You can send it along after proper ogling/drooling time.
