King Kong vs. Godzilla [Kingu Kongu tai Gojira]


The fights here are clearly a lot shitter than the new version, amounting to little more than men in suits half heartedly throwing polystyrene rocks at each other, but holding the plot up against the new version now reveals a masterpiece of broad comedy attacking society’s willingness to leave common sense at the door if there’s going to be a massive scrap taking place. I’m not saying this is a good movie, just taking the opportunity to hammer home just how fucking dire the new one is.
