Because of the energy Ghidorah had with the storm he created, it devastated Skull Island with continuous storms. That's why he was living in that dome. Only he and the girl survived.

kong skull island is great and not like the other kong films , has great monster fights and cool vietnam war underline commentary

You guys, as EVERYONE else has said, should check out Skull Island! Not only are none of the characters carried over from that film, and NOT ONLY is it not really like any other Kong movie before it (I’d say it’s closest to all the cool stuff from the beginning of Peter Jackson’s King Kong, without all the boring classic King Kong crap from the end), it’s just a genuinely good movie. Like, I think it’s the best standalone entry in this universe by a wide margin. Great cast, good flick, definitely check it out 👍

Skull island Is so good tho. That’s depressing

Godzilla never wanted to kill Kong, he just wanted Kong to admit that HE was the one in charge, that he was the alpha. Of course, Kong himself is also an alpha where he's from (the Hollow Earth) so there was no way he was going to submit to anyone, not even Godzilla. They are both as stubborn as each other.

As cool as Godzilla is, that scene where Kong tears that flying monster's head off and eats it, still probably my favorite in the whole franchise so far.

i love how godzilla wants kong to yield and back off but kong couldnt resist and just YELL back haha komg is bad ass

Surprisingly they don’t do the beauty and beast plot line in Kong: Skull Island. And nobody from this film except for Kong was in it. In that film, we get a cast consisting of Tom Hiddleston, Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, and John C. Reilly. But my point is at the time that Kong: Skull Island was released, it was something completely different from what we’re used to watching in a King Kong film. And without going into spoilers in the case that you guys decide to watch it at some point, the post-credit scene in Kong: Skull Island foreshadows Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

Skull Island is really good. A must watch at some point especially if you like monster movies or Kong in general.

How the fuck could you guys skip Kong Skull Island lol? Regardless, once again glad to say that you guys have undertaken a little Godzilla journey. Thanks bros, Godzilla is the best

you need to watch kong skull island.

Goddammit. I was really hoping the omission of Skull Island was because they'd already seen it outside the channel.

You absolutely FAILED to describe the events of Skull Island.

Seriously guys. Kong Skull Island. Aka " Kong vs Samuel L Jackson" plus giant monsters. Watch it.

Not surprised y'all skipped out on kong skull island smh i am disappointed not watching this video till y'all do tbh

Guys… I love y’all’s reactions and stuff, but why in the heck did y’all skip Kong: Skull Island???? It’s literally a part of this whole movie franchise and it’s a genuinely good movie! I wanna watch this video I do, but it’s also weird knowing y’all’s reactions aren’t as genuine because you missed out on a huge chunk of the story. I’m sure by now you guys know this so I won’t blame y’all. Just try to keep track of stuff like this better in the future.

You guys didn't watch Skull Island first. Wow. It does NOT follow the typical Kong story. It's different, has things happen in it that leads to these others, even leads into the previous one. This Kong is way different, far larger and smarter and they do not end up in New York. You all messed up.

Whooaaa yall didnt watch Kong frfr? The only character from the movie that made it to this movie was Adult Kong. Cause he was like a teenager in Skull Island. It takes place in the 70’s AND it kinda establishes Monarchs beginning story. Yall kinda crazy for skipping it.

Yall really missed a great movie and some pretty important information by skipping skull island... I hope yall go back and watch it cause it's gonna play a major part in the new one

Obviously, Skull Island is in the series and worth a watch. And I think the original Godzilla film, Shin Godzilla, and then, the psychedelic Hedorah, are worth looking into

Wel.. [Kong: Skull Island] kind of set up this movie (skull crawlers, the island being surrounded by a massive storm, the mute natives who worship kong, hollow earth)...and teased [King of the Monsters]... so... yeah... shouldn't have skipped it...

Should’ve watched Kong first

The way you guys described Kong: Skull Island is way off. I’m disappointed you guys don’t react to that considering you are a reaction channel.

I'm shocked you guys didn’t watch Kong Skull Island before this one

Why did they skip king skull island like it’s not like the traditional kong movies where kong falls in love with a blonde chick and get shot off a building no it’s completely different, come on man, y’know I don’t think the hardest thing for you is watching a movie I think the hardest thing for you is having a brain inside those thick skulls of yours (haha get it, skulls, cause ‘SKULL island’)

You are my guys but it kills my soul that you didn’t watch Kong: Skull Island before this. It’s literally the introduction to this Universe’s King Kong. Having that introduction and character building makes this movie even better. At least watch it as a prequel to this one for your OctoKrool brethren.

Love your guys' content and happy you like the Monarch monster series, but skipping Skull Island was a mistake. Knowing the story, cast and effects, I know you would have really loved it.

Yall gotta watch Kong skull island it’s a dope movie

I can't help but crack up at the fact that you not watching Skull Island pointed itself out within the first five minutes and showed why you should have watched it

Not even a good reason to skip Kong: Skull Island. I would use the argument that Godzilla shows up, fights monsters, causes chaos, leaves. Kong is part of the shared cinematic universe and introduces us to the Skullcrawlers

Like others have said, Skull Island isn't just a remake of the classic Kong story. It's its own thing, and really good. Think Apocalypse Now meets Kong meets Comedy meets God Of War

What? What do you mean Kong: Skull Island isn’t necessary and you don’t need to watch it? C’mon, it’s part of the MonsterVerse.

you guys should really check out Kong-Skull Island,I get it,you don't wanna watch another remake,I feel you,but the MonsterVerse one is the first,actual reboot and is VERY different,and it's really good,I'm sure you'd love it! I loved how you were thorough in siding with Godzilla,basically everyone else,even other Team Godzillas,tend to sympathize for Kong instead,but I'm on your same page,as much as this Kong is my favorite in every aspect,Godzilla is simply on another level

Y’all didn’t watch kong first? Its different

I love that the second Ghidorah is resurrected as Mechagodzilla, he immediately tries to get revenge on Godzilla for killing him

You should watch Kong of skull island. It’s not a typical King Kong movie so I think you guys would like it

Honestly surprised you two didn't watch Kong.. It would explain some events following towards Godzilla vs Kong

It's honestly impressive that Kong was able to move Godzilla with a punch while being 88% sedated.

Kong Skull Island has probably one of the best monster fights in the Monsterverse

First of all I enjoy your reactions guy's but skipping Kong skull island was a mistake. Very good movie

you guys need to watch Kong skull island you’re missing the best Kong film ever

Wonderful reaction, but you guys really should watch Kong Skull Island, its literally part of this cinematic universe and i assure you its much different than previous Kong films

14:31 - It’s a bit more nuanced than just learning the language, it’s a matter of trust. Kong knew the little girl for a while and probably sympathized with her being the last of her people, just like he’s the last of his kind. That doctor is probably the one who taught them both sign language, but Kong didn’t want to talk to her likely because he associates her with the group keeping him trapped at the beginning.

And seeing other king movies isn’t an excuse to skip Skull Island because these movies are connected to a whole franchise and storyline. I get it u really really like Godzilla. We all do. But Kong is a huge part of the story. Please go back and watch. U will understand why u should have watched it.

Have yo guys watched Skull Island yet? If you haven't you should that is where this Kong came from. AND it has Tom Hiddleston and Samuel L Jackson in it. Can't lose with those 2.

I think you guys would enjoy skull Island it has the best human cast great fight scenes and parts of the story that tied in directly to this movie even if y'all don't react to it I'd suggest checking it out

The thing I love about this movie that you guys sorta touched is how it intentionally tricks the audience. Godzilla is the ONLY one that has the full picture and is doing what’s right while we’re made to follow Kong and miss how he and the humans with him are being manipulated

I agree with many others in the fact that you haven't seen Kong Skull Island, between Kong and Godzilla, you will find that they are both protectors, to a degree, but there has to be a "Top Dogg" which is what I think that you saw between the fight between the two, also my assumption as to why Godzilla only roared in Kongs face after their fight, it wasn't to destroy but establish rank in a sense; very similar to the submissive act shown by the other creatures at the end of the previous movie.

I love the fact that Ghidora was not only so powerful but hated Godzilla so much that he took over Mechagodzilla just to run it back with Godzilla and try to kill him.

The fight between Godzilla and King Kong really isn't about who's good and who's bad it's all about alpha, I think a lot of people forget

Let us never forget that Godzilla had an 80s kids cartoon where he basicly was a group of kids pet that just showed up

Gonna skip the best one huh?

Y’all really should watch Kong: Skull Island. It’s part of the series lol

Big L for not watching kong

You'd honestly really like Kong Skull Island. It isn't a King Kong movie, it's a Vietnam War movie with monsters. It's sick

I always feel that final scene with Kong dropping the axe and Godzilla walking away had vibes of "You know what, I'm too old and too tired for this shit again. Lets just call it a draw today on account of robots."

Guys NOOOOO why would you watch this without seeing Kong Skull Island first?! 🙈🙈🙈 Why didn’t you check?? I never seen reactors skip a whole movie, it builds up to this and Godzilla King of the Monsters. It’s not like any King Kong movie you seen before it, not even remotely apart from the name of the Island. Honestly, i think some of us are a little bit disappointed, as we wanted to go through this Monsterverse journey with you. But I’m glad you enjoyed the Godzilla movies. Now atone for your sin and watch Kong Skull Island.

Remember, it's Ghidora co troling MechaG. That's why he's beating Godzilla so brutally and partially ignores Kong; becouse he remembers KILLING HIM!

Kong: Skull Island is nothing like any other Kong movie

In the comics, and books, someone from Kongs species killed some of of Godzilla's species, so Godzilla wanted revenge

So glad I've seen all these in theaters. Oh and like others have said, Skull Island may lowkey be the best in the series. LOTS of action.

Skull Island is awesome! It has Samuel L. Jackson. Only losers skip that movie. jk

I love how you can read between the lines of why Godzilla didn’t continue to beat on Kong like he did with Ghidorah. He knew he already made a killing blow (if it wasn’t for the humans Kong would have died), but unlike Ghidorah, who routinely tries to run away when being overpowered, Kong stood his ground and roared back. Godzilla have him a nod of respect, as if to say, “I’m sorry it came to this”, then went off to continue his mission of preventing King Ghidorah’s resurrection. Godzilla only attacks Kong cause the longer Kong continues to run around, it makes Godzilla look weak to other titans. Heck, when Godzilla comes back to him after they team up, he’s not aggressive, almost asking Kong to just drop the axe and yield. “Listen son, you’re a good kid, but you ain’t got what it takes to be king, yet. You’re what, a hundred? Im over a billion. So just drop the axe and yield. Don’t need to make a big thing of it”

guys you missed Kong skull Island 😮

Come on guys really I have said this in the past 2 videos and now everyone else in the comments are saying it you missed a great film Kong skull island

i know what you said about kong movies but kong skull island is worth a watch

I just want to verify and make sure that you guys already Seen the original King Kong from 1933.? Or the 1970s King Kong where he climbs the world trade center in Manhattan.?

Just so you guys are aware- you have to remember King Ghidora was telepathic. His three heads used telepathy to communicate with each other. So since they used his skull to create a telepathic interface for the pilot, plus using the much stronger power source from hollow earth, it allowed King Ghidoras conscious to telepathically take over the mecha. I hope that helps clear it up

The severed head became the property of Apex Cybernetics and was brought to their secret facility in Hong Kong. In Godzilla Vs. Kong, Ghidorah's skull and the latent psychic powers the space dragon possessed were used by Apex to control Mechagodzilla. It turned out Ghidorah's consciousness wasn't completely dead, only dormant within the psychic abilities that Apex was tapping into. When the Hollow Earth energy was integrated into Mechagodzilla, Ghidorah's consciousness reawakened and took control of Mechagodzilla's robotic body. When Mechagodzilla charged up to full power and came online, Ghidorah's mind was totally in control

I know plenty of others have said this already, but not watching skull island beforehand is criminal. It’s arguably the best Monsterverse movie as a standalone movie.

Saying the previous Kong's movies are the same is like saying the previous Godzilla movies are the same, big missed opportunity and a big L to be honest 😮‍💨

I understand your reasoning for skipping Kong, but yall missed out. The story is different. It's not about Kong and the girl. I have to say this reaction is good and glad yall enjoyed it which I knew you would, but..... Man, yall got my OCD acting up. 🙃

Skull Island was very different from all of the other Kong movies in the way that Iron Man was different from other superhero movies... It created the bridge between other monsters in this universe, and you are 100%. Behaving like those who do not subscribe if you don't watch that movie. All you have to do is watch that movie, and you will not be like those who don't subscribe.😉

....you missed an entire movie.

FUN FACT: This is thee first King Kong movie where Kong does not hold a woman/man ever in his hands. Think about that...

Gidorah's heads comunicate telepaticaly. They usad a skull to telepaticaly control the Mecha. But then the remaining of Gidorah's mind took control of the Mecha. Basicaly Apex gave Gidorah a new body

You guys started your intro to Godzilla by mentioning how much Toho godzilla movies you had already seen. So your rationale for not watching Skull Island is really idiotic

Good to see a channel that’s on Godzilla side when it’s both people. It’s either people on Kong’s side or half and half.

When you didnt do your project but got to present in front of the class

With the reasoning for not watching Kong Island, why even watch Godzilla? Me big lizard. Me fight. Me knock over building. Same ole story

Basically the Ghidorah supercomputer skull thing is that 'cause there is a part of Ghidorah that stuff survived it took over the whole machine and killed the pilot to make sure no-one else can take control of it Also in Godzilla 2014 and King of Monsters the big G was mo-capped but in this movie he was just pure CGI, Kong was still mo-capped though

Over in this corner with a height of 393 feet is GODZILLA while in the other corner coming in at 336 feet is KING KONG, so let the Fight Begin 🛎️ ding ding - This is the 2nd time Godzilla has gone up against Kong which was in 1963 in the film “King Kong vs Godzilla” - “Godzilla vs Kong” takes place 5 years after “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” while it has been 51 years after “Kong: Skull Island” which took place in 1973 - This version of Mechagodzilla is simalar to the one in “Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla 2” where it was constructed from Mecha-King Ghidorah's severed mechanical middle head, & speaking mecha-lookalikes fun fact Kong faced his own Mechani-Kong in the movie “King Kong Escapes” (1967) which was the inspiration for Mechagodzilla (debut in 1974)

You guys should definitely check out Skull Island next. Definitely one of the better monster movies featuring the big ape out there. Along with King Kong 2005

Grew up watching the classic Godzilla movies in black and white then color . It is great seeing it with todays technology.

Ghidorah’s conscious was inside of the mech and that’s why Godzilla wanted to kill it so badly, and Kong Skull Island takes place in the 70’s

A: Why would you skip Kong: Skull Island? What? B: I don't think you know who you're supposed to root for in these movies.

GUYS you have to go back and watch Kong Skull island that’s why so many spammed it in the comments lol it’s not like the other Kong movies na this one is DIFFERENT and you get to really see Kong shine in his element plz go back and react to that

Might as well watch the trailer for Godzilla and Kong: The New Empire now lol. It looks like it's basically going to be Bat-Godzilla and Robin Kong and I AM...HERE FOR IT! And yeah...also watch Kong Skull Island. It's great. It's the King Kong that is in this movie. In case you didn't know 👍

I have to agree with the other comments it was really weird that they skipped over Skull Island, or forgot about it.

Y'all really skipped over Skull island?? Wow, the disrespect

Haruo Nakajima Haruo Nakajima (Japanese: 中島 春雄, Hepburn: Nakajima Haruo, January 1, 1929 - August 7, 2017) was a Japanese actor and stuntman. A pioneer of suit acting, he is best known for playing Godzilla in 12 consecutive films, starting from the original Godzilla (1954) until Godzilla vs. Gigan (1972)

Shame on u guys for not watching the series from the start. Kong skull island took place at the end of the Vietnam war. They explain a lot in that movie. You need to check it out.

Can't believe genji being a mecha Godzila pilot😂

Always love your reactions! Just saw your video literally appear 5 seconds ago, salutations from France!

"he has fur dude!" 😂

The Ghidorah skull that is used for MechaGodzilla is from the head that Godzilla ripped off in "King of the Monsters". There was a post credit scene showing the villain guy buying the severed head from a group of fisherman. That being said, when they got the Hollow Earth energy, Ghidorah was able to reawaken and take control of MechaGodzilla.

Just a great movie! Saw this in theaters!

Just to let u both know the order of the MonsterVerse: 1. Godzilla 2. Kong: Skull Island 3. Godzilla: King of the Monsters 4. Godzilla vs. Kong There’s also the new series on Apple TV called Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.

I didn't expect you guys to go "Samuel L Jackson? Eh, we'll leave it" It's a mood, I'll give you that!🤣

kinda sucks you skipped kongs own movie
