Kong: Skull Island (2017)

The latest MonsterVerse film is the highly anticipated Godzilla vs. Kong. Directed by Adam Wingard and written by Eric Pearson and Max Borenstein, the movie follows the two most dominant alpha monsters on the planet as they clash with one another. Who will come out on top? Who will bow to the other? Or, is there something looming behind the shadows that's bigger than both of them?

Both Godzilla and Kong are two of the most massive franchises in the world - with a total of 48 movies combined, the two drive the monster genre. Historically, the two have only met once prior to this movie. In 1962, King Kong vs. Godzilla released to the world and offered one of the most iconic moments in cinematic history:

Cinema has come quite a long way, right?

The amount of times I've watched this video since it appeared on my Twitter is, well, a lot. Fortunately, the visual effects and action-packed fight scenes were much better in the modern rendition.
