I dunno. I get the feeling that Samuel L. Jackson in this will be less Avengers ass kicking, and more Deep Blue Sea chewed-in-the-middle-of-a-speech.

And Legendary might have a problem on their hands because that means that Godzilla will be three and a half times taller than Kong (he's 350 feet tall in the 2014 film)... I guess Kong is going to have to climb the Empire State Building again just to stare back at Godzilla.

Funny thing, Shin Gojira has just been released in Japan and they had to make their Godzilla bigger than the Legendary Godzilla, by ten meters (Legendary's Godzilla was previously the largest Godzilla).

Basically this is happening:

So yeah.

Also, judging by that hand print (?) on the cliff in the trailer, he was a lot larger than 100 feet.

I don't think the size difference will matter much, have you ever seen a monkey attack a human 3 times it's size? Those basterds are fast, and really strong.
And at 350ft, Godzilla will be slow to respond, plus Kong can throw stuff with a fair degree of accuracy.

Post by: Edguy on 15 Aug 2016, 02:10: If something is three times as tall, it's actually around 27 times as big (in terms of volume/mass). I dont think there could possibly be any sort of interesting "fight" with such a size difference..
