I'm amazed Kong even showed up to the fight considering he keeps getting drunk and passing out.
Those are often the people that love a good fight the most.
Well, they literally had to drag his lazy drunk ass to a fight.
I'm lost without Steve.
@@aarondavis8943You ARE lost, I think you replied to the wrong comment 😂
He’s an mean drunk, when he’s sober he’ll give you the shirt off his back
That King Kong Paramount joke was pure gold!
'Aw, shit, I'm gonna be in the '76 'King Kong' movie!'
I prefer Godzilla and Kong vs Prometheus where Godzilla and Kong sit in a car and give a review of Prometheus.
😂😂😂
The fact I genuinely imaged them sitting in a car cutting each other off with their roars 💀
That is the best idea for a UA-cam channel that I have ever heard
We need a Snob/Brandon Tenold crossover. The world needs it
The Snob is hurting people and we don’t know why
That would be something.
Yeah we definitely need to cross over we also need a Ross's game dungeon &civv11 crossover
Snob and fanboyflicks
Reality would blow the fuck up
For the longest time, this was my favorite Godzilla movie
If you were a kid back then, this was awesome. Cheese is fun.
ya i remember being a young kid and my older brother somehow got this on VHS i loved it
@@robertwarren4734 Honestly, watched it for the first time at the age of 28 and unironically loved it. It was a Japanese cut though. The mid-era Showa films were charmingly self-aware and unapologetic.
The American version is perfect for The Snob, but if you want to see how good this movie truly is treat yourself to the original Japanese version, it's worth it for the soundtrack alone.
Its still not a good movie....The majority of Showa era films are not good movies, they're mostly movies that were made for children and it shows in the majority of them with very few exceptions.....And im someone you couldn't pay to watch a butchered, English dubbed version of a Godzilla movie...The Heisei and Millennium era films are far superior to everything in the Showa era except the 54 film
@@lutherheggs451 Your absolutely right, the later films were geared more towards children and that's ok when you watch them thru those eyes and just have fun. To me the first four in the showa series are fantastic especially this one, is it cheesey yes but it's also the first Godzilla film in color, it's got one of the best brawls of all time and to this day still leads to great debates about the final outcome & that's coming from a guy who also thinks the heisei series is the best
@@joegrizzly1327 I don't think it's a coincidence that those first four films are also the ones with Godzilla as the antagonist. Turning him into the protagonist was where the films veered very much into childish territory. While you do see them removing a lot of the horror elements associated with Godzilla in this film by the time Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster rolled around he was turned a giant buffoon (getting shot in the butt, bickering with Rhodan, etc). Sure, that film and the ones that followed it are fun to watch, but I'd hardly call them good.
On the other hand, I do think the first four hold up well enough, with the original being the classic, Raids Again the underrated followup, King Kong vs Godzilla setting the standard for giant monster clashes and Mothra vs Godzilla perfecting it to the point that I still think it's one of the best Godzilla sequels (I also think Terror of the MechaGodzilla was a solid return to at least a semi-serious tone and a cohesive plot, especially compared with how hokey all the ones in between that and Mothra vs Godzilla were).
They actually made King Kong vs Frankenstein, but they used Godzilla and Bambi instead of Kong and Frank.
I'd watch the hell out of King Kong vs. Prometheus! Think they'd do a sequel, Kong vs. Alien Covenant?
How about Godzilla Vs. Predator?🤔
take a shot every time the voice actors in the dub pronounce the lizard's name as "Gawdziller"
I demand The Monster That Challenged The World Vs. The Man Who Sold The World.
0:15 “The Original K.O.N.G!” UPN! ~ You are Never going to let us forget that are you Snob?!
It’s Stuck in My Head! 🤯
UPN. Always down with the kids, yo. (Until they merged with The WB, and became The CW.)
It's like Johnny Charro, music that has forever reached eternal memedom in the Snob Cinematic Universe.
😂😂😂
Little known fact: There's an alternative version of this review in Japan with Jerrid instead of the Cinema Snob.
That is an urban legend
@@SharkAlien66 Damn, the Internet and Trivial Pursuit have failed me again.
kong vs godzilla is the OG freddy vs jason.
Oh yeah, I remember in the '33 King kong that he lived in this famous island of Japaneses in black faces.
The octopus that King Kong fights, that octopus was trying to get high on the sauce. And luckily there were no Japanese girls in school uniforms around.🐙🐙🐙
As an anime fan, I am very disappointed.
@@Launchpad05 As a female anime fan, I demand gorgeous men straining (in mostly torn off clothes of course), against tentacles. ;-)
@@annvictor9627 Your wish is my command.
@@Launchpad05 Sensible of you, sir. Thank you.
😳
I love this one. It’s dumb fun. Please review more Kaiju movies.
I love all 3 of these. I don't get why they get such low view counts. Same with the James Bond videos which are also hilarious.
Two Wawa references in one video? We Pennsylvanians salute you!
Is that where is originated from? Wawa has been popping up everywhere here in Florida for the last 7yrs.
@@SexyButCurious it was founded in the Philadelphia suburbs
Growing up in PA I just thought Wawa was everywhere.
Now I'm in AZ and I'm surprised when I hear anyone even mention it.
Please do King Kong 1976 next , just watched it yesterday , Classic!
Jessica Lange was smokin
And maybe do one for 'The King Of Kong'. The only theatrical movie to feature Donkey Kong.
I really feel the thinking was wrong from the Japanese they should have brought maps tons of maps and exposition. It would have dulled Godzilla to sleep. No one can withstand the exposition from the american newscaster.
What a trade off. Dull American filler that probably took less than a day to film, or just focusing on the untranslatable Japanese style salary man humor.
It was the “death by PowerPoint” of its time.
Lloyd -> 6:32
Also, I saw Brandon Tenold's review of this version of KK v Godzilla last week. As much as I enjoy Brandon's reviews, Brad's review of the movie is more favorable...I guess we can thank Lloyd for contributing to his human food giver's video for this.
Also his out of context Lonestar clips of the week
One of the goofiest scenes of all time is when kong shows for round 2 on weather balloons
😂😂😂
Bruce Howard also wrote for "The Dukes of Hazzard" and "Gilligan's Island."
Uh oh, Kong might be wearing Daisy Dukes in the next movie!
Those Japanese girls are the same ones who played Connerys Bond girls in "You only live twice".
Hey, I always notice that Kissy Suzuki was in the movie, but never noticed Aki before...
I appreciate the shade thrown at the 2014 movie.
I've been looking forward to this. And Honestly, I never thought anybody would reference Rocky 5 nowadays lol
Just in time for the remake but this is a classic.
"Why don't you go to Hokaido?"
"Do not go to Hokairdo."
“ Did the TV just talk directly to me?”
TV: “ No, I did not.”
Peter Graves, the star of the Crow T Robot production of Peter Graves at the University of Minnesota fame?
2:12
“My mother, the giant gorilla”
Dude, your commentary and trivia are deeply appreciated and thoroughly enjoyed on my part! My only desire now: Please, oh PLEASe, please-please-please-please... Review APE from 1976.
"Watch APE!"
I watched "My Mother the Car" when it aired, but the only scene I can remember is the one where she was being used for a "stop on a dime" brakes commercial. Her brake pin (or something) had fallen out, so she crashed during the commercial. IIRC, It was used anyway as an example of even the best needing replacing eventually. (I also watched the animated Beatles cartoon back then, but skipped "Manimal" in the 80s. I did watch the King Kong cartoon, though. Face it, our channel choices were pretty limited when I was a kid.)
When I heard the reporter's name, I immediately thought "Godzilla better respect his authoritah!"
Goddamn, I love these King Kong/Godzilla movie reviews. They're so much fun to watch!
19:05 that makes the part more adorable because of showing Kong be more like an monkey
I was watching this massive cheese fest the other day .
Stop being everywhere! Go give Caddicarus or Johnny another bad game to review!
How did I not know there's a The Beatles animated series????
'Don't monkey around with other cartoons shows. Watch 'King Kong' on WPWR.'
Because you probably didn’t grow up in the sixties and seventies.
The way I found out about it was through a magazine selling expensive models. I really wanted that Freddy and Jason too.
Because you were too wrapped up in the Three Stooges animated series?!
@@KonElKent probably the “Hardy Boys” animated series
I'm still not used to Godzilla running that fast
No different than Kong's constantly changing arm length.
Yeah it’s so odd lol 😂
The footage was sped up by accident. No, really.
The two women in this movie are the Bond Girls from You Only Live Twice.
Both actors almost drowned when they went into the water, the one on top was knocked unconscious and the other couldn't get out.
I'm very sure Kong and The Beatles would've created world peace if they met.
Or get toasted on red berry juice
I have an 8" x 10" print of the Japanese poster to this movie hanging in the wall of my home theater/video store.
5:25- That, or Lloyd's Out of Context "9-1-1 Lone Star" Clip of the Week.
12:46- And it'll also make an appearance in Kong: Skull Island, where Kong kills it and eats a couple of its tentacles like spaghetti.
14:55- Godzilla is approaching the train lights! The train lights are losing power!
18:22- Thanks, Frizzy Burt Reynolds.
21:42- Yeah, this is one of the reasons why this years GvK uses CGI and motion capture.
Okay so everyone is covering the original King Kong Vs Godzilla now. Brandon Tenold did it in 2 parts finishing it several days ago. Steve Reviews did it yesterday. Now Cinema Snob is doing it. Everyone is jumping on the Bandwagon, except AlexTheHunted. He reviewed it years ago.
Aren't there enough 5 hours breakdowns of Prometheus on You tube already?
Do we really need King Kong take on it?
Yes. Kong is duh Bomb!
I think I will answer why the Prometheus title since it’s not likely general knowledge today, but the Frankenstein original novel title was Frankenstein The Modern Prometheus
i just saw the new movie... as awesome as all the cg fest fights are...i gotta say, in some parts, i do miss all the corniness, campyness of the original Godzilla vs. King Kong flick. the old one's just got more charm to it.
This is in my top 5 snob episodes. Hilarious
The one scientist is dubbed to pronounce King Kong like it was the name of a Hostess product.
To quote a certain big game hunter, *"YOU (the scientist) DING DOOONG!!!!!!"*
King Kong doing the Dark Souls roll!
If I’m not mistaken with Akiko Wakabayashi and Mie Hama in this movie, it’s also in the You Only Live Twice universe too
If Cosmic Cow, and The Gigantic Unfrozen Lloyd were in the movie shoving the tree down Godzilla's throat, it would've been comedy gold! Also, I wouldn't be doing my job as an internet reviewer if I didn't ask, 'IS THIS 'THE SECRET OF THE SWORD'?!' (What?! it has A giant monster there.) #SheRa
😂😂😂😂😂
Godzilla vs. Bambi review when?
Or a re-upload of 'Godzilla's Revenge'.
Not having HBOmax or the COVID vaccine, this is as close to my two favorite kaiju actors as I will get.
BTW, Cinema Snob no slight intended, I worship your intellect. However I have a suggestion: @14:56 I would have inserted, "and get Fujitsu or Sony to make a real big laser pointer...."
I just realized the two missionaries are also the two photographers in Atragon, which is very interesting entry into the Toho verse. It's the movie that Manda makes his appearance in. I'd say "star" but he's barely in it, it's mostly about the Submarine.
You’re underrated!
Lol, I remember watching this in like 1999/2000ish on t.v when I was a teen. I was really into the old Godzilla movies back then. Haven't seen any of the new Godzilla/Kong films yet.
I watched this review a day or two after Brandon Tenold's review on the same movie, and it's crazy how they almost have the exact same jokes and trivia...
God this is hilarious, great writing Brad
The media commentary is pretty good in that film, particularly the Japanese parts. respect
Need you and Brandon Tenold to collab on one of these videos
You do know they were both at Channel Awesome at one point right?
@@lutherheggs451 yup, but Tenold was more like Larry Bundy. There, but not really
So Kong is an alcoholic. Didnt know that.
Question doesn't lighting make king Kong stronger hmm so what does a blue cave do for him
Nice! I spent last ight watching a bunch of the snob videos and woke up to. New one
Godzilla Vs Phillip Morris
Please do the ‘98 Godzilla.
The fact you referenced Wawa makes you highly underrated. Lol
I would watch the shit out of King Kong vs Joe Camel!
Oh hi Brad. Good to see you in my inbox again🤗
17:25 - Those are some very cool toys. They seemed to be building some "War of the Worlds" tripods at 17:30
20:05 - Those look like the "Davy Crockett M-388" tactical nuclear weapons, but they're clearly something weaker.
I really loved this movie as a little kid. I'm curious though just how much the original Japanese version differs. I might have to hunt it down someday.
Japanese woman: “go to hokki-ado”
News Anchor: “Don’t go to Hokkaido.”
Me: Stay in the kitchen and learn your Japanese.
I remember watching Kaiju movies late at night on Friday night with my mom watching Fritz the Nite Owl. Anybody from Columbus Ohio that remembers the late 70s early 80s knows what I'm talking about. But this King Kong suit has to be the worst King Kong suit I've ever seen and I'm telling you he seems to be cross eyed.🦉🦉🦉
You're the best film reviewer
Funniest moment in the video "rub his feet bro" lmao!
Just in time for Godzilla vs. Kong. Yay!
I want to read that outline for Kong meets Frankenstein.
Old movies be like:
"How do our leads get an in with the local tribe?"
"Load em full of smokes! Everyone loves smokes!"
TBH it's better than them just killing someone and threatening their chief -- which wouldn't be unfathomable in that era of cinema.
I just don't understand why they have to fight. Can't they see they're meant to be together?
Brad Jones vs The Cinema Snob
After this event, Fumiko would join Japan's SIS, change her name to Kissy Suzuki, and marry James Bond in You Only Live Twice (it's the same actress).
You're mostly right.
She got Ninja poisoned. Bond marries the pearl diver.
Cloverfield's gonna kick their asses, screencap this.
King Kong vs. Prometheus and Bob would be amazing.
Ok, now I really want to see you do a Binge Watch on My Mother The Car.
Huh... I didn't know Phillip Morris did product placement for this movie. This is how you get the smoking baby folks.
King Kong is an edibles kaiju. That's where he gets his Blanka powers.
I never understood how King Kong could stand a chance against Godzilla.
Don't worry, you don't need to see the new movie to know who the winner will be, because it'll be the same as every other modern versus movie: a draw
Can we get a side by side review of the King Kong cartoon and the Godzilla cartoon?
The Snob VS Brandon Tenold when?
Japanese version is the better watch, why they quoted Hamlet in the American version I will never know.
at 3:40 that's Victor Millan, who was in "Touch of Evil" as Manelo Sanchez.
a WAWA shout out. Nice
Seto Kaiba and I, were trying to watch Godzilla vs Kong on HBO Max this Wednesday, yeah?
I saw King Kong vs Godzilla on UA-cam, and I can't wait to watch Godzilla vs Kong on HBO Max this Wednesday, right?
That native Kong chant “slaps” tho.
April 8 for Brazil!
CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH THE BEST MOVIE EVER~✨
This video is a great appetizer!
Wait yall have to wait till April 8th? I thought everyone could see it on hbo max on 03/31?
@@SexyButCurious I meant in theaters, we can see it on HBO Max!
...i think?
I don't mind watching a 5 hour breakdown of Prometheus. Does anyone know of a good content creator with such a video?
King Kong vs Godzilla was like LeBron vs Kobe but, in fictional giant monster form. I never went to college so, no hair off of my head. Snob:That's a building!😅😁Nice going, dipshit😅😅😁😁I will say this conflict with sarcasm nice pun by The Cinema Snob when he said sure fire hit, where there was fire showing on the TV screen.
I know you’d probably get in trouble, but I’m always expecting “Godzilla” from BOC to start playing during these reviews.
Do you remember how much of a shitstorm it caused with fans when it was discovered that the Blue Oyster Cult song "Godzilla" was not going to be in the 1990s Godzilla reboot? There were tons of petitions being circulated to stop the movie from being released until the song was added, and this was a good decade before change.org existed. But instead of paying at most, maybe about six figures to license the song for the film and its advertising, the studio spent $10,000,000 to get Jimmy Paige of Led Zeppelin to come out of retirement to team up with Puff Daddy to create a horrible song and create a music video that cost another million to make which MTV then played nonstop for months. And in between airings of the music video, there were the also near endless Taco Bell commercials which also featured that song, and the studio also paid tens of millions to make.
@@jessehammond9710 thanks, i didn’t know that... oh wait, yes I did because I lived during that whole mess!
A Cinema Snob review for Ginger Snaps movie would be awesome
Godzilla: “KING KONG AIN’T GOT NOTHIN ON ME!”
My lizard! 🚬
'Cause he's The Original 'K-O-N-G'!'
The thing that always puzzled me about this film is how did Toho make such a shitty looking Kong suit.
They made a very solid yeti/ape-man costume 8 years earlier for Jujin Yuki Otoko (English title: Half Human). The '63 Kong suit isn't half as well made an ape as the '55 Half Human suit. What went so wrong?
Is it ironic that I got an ad for Godzilla vs Kong before this video?
