EXCLUSIVE: In a movie move that portends a clash of giant monsters, Legendary Pictures’ Thomas Tull is moving his untitled Skull Island King Kong film to Warner Bros. This is being done to unite the property with Legendary’s other giant franchise, Godzilla. In what would be a pretty epic pairing, the Godzilla sequel that is in the works will be followed by a movie that pits the giant ape versus the giant fire breathing reptile. I’m told this is happening very quickly with moves going all the way to Japan, where Godzilla rights holder Toho is based. Legendary, which moved from Warner Bros to Universal, had developed the Skull Island film at the latter studio. It is unclear at the moment what Universal’s position will be, but I heard the studio move is being done because it is just easier to have all the pieces under one roof, something that Marvel Studios has done with superheroes like The Hulk. King Kong is in the public domain, while Legendary got the Godzilla rights from Toho.

movie will bomb. it's something that sounds really exciting at first but once you try and piece it together in your head there's actually very little chance it could end up being any good.

plus if skull island bombs no one is gonna care. that movie has to impress

I agree with the last part but they've done it before tho. It's not impossible

Never was a fan of this match up. King Kong is just a 20 ft ape who got killed by a bunch of toy-sized bi-planes. Godzilla is 200ft tall nuclear weapon on two legs. He's also invulnerable, and has atomic breath that can decimate anything and everything it hits.

I would much rather see a modern day remake of Destroy All Monsters.

I really disliked the Godzilla reboot, hard for me to get hype about anything involving him after that. This does sound cool though so I'll have to wait and see how it turns out.
