That intro was great, it was fun to imagine all those Heueys and gobsmacked soldiers just hovering off camera as a 104ft tall Decker Shado does his thing.

Fun Fact: The big shipwreck named "Wanderer" is the same name they used for the "SS Venture" in the public domain 1932 novelization of *"KING KONG"* by Delos W. Lovelace. And when Universal wanted to remake Kong between 1975- 1976, under the title: *"The Legend of KING KONG";* using the public domain novelization as a basis, the "Venture" was renamed yet again as the "Panama Queen".

Honestly with Dinocember you could just review a majority of the King Kong films. Absolutely love this film, especially the skullcrawler sequence in the graveyard

Believe me, my mother and I really loved Kong in both Kong Skull Island, and Godzilla vs Kong, because he is a very unique character. Sure we are used to seeing him get killed and falling off a skyscraper, but the Monsterverse is the one series where he doesn’t get killed off. Good work on the review, can’t wait to see you reacted to Rampage, the 2018 movie with Dwayne Johnson.

I wish we could have been able to explore the friendship between the two antagonists who fought against each other in World War II but became friends to survive on Skull Island.

The military, who had just spent a few years wandering around, surviving in, and engaging in combat in jungles, swamps, and mountains, needed a guide, who knows how to wander around jungles , swamps and mountains, to guide them around jungles, swamps and mountains that they have never been to before and that... ..he....has...never...been ...to ...before....either Yeah.

@@TheToonMonkey I highly agree. My biggest problem with the Peter Jackson version is that it's essentially the 1933 film but unnecessarily doubled in length. I don't know how Jackson took the 100 minutes original and added another 90 minutes to it and felt it was a Justified length for a film with essentially the same story as the original. It just felt like it dragged on when it should have just been 2 hours and 15 minutes at the absolute most. I'm not saying that you can't have a 3 hour movie hell I love Return To The King, another Peter Jackson movie, and that's three and a half but a film must justify its length if it's going to be that long.

Decker, you should make a review of the movies of Kong; specially King Kong from 2005

Im glad to see Decker Shado finally do a proper King Kong standalone movie! You should see the classic 1930s version! You got to do the goofy Kong smile as a intro!

Finally KZread has let King Kong come back to Decker Shado! If ya smelllllllllllll what Kong is Cooking 🤔

Please please PLEASE review Peter Jackson’s King Kong🥺👏

Kong: Skull Island (2017) is a blast of a movie that I had a lot of fun watching in the theater.

Skull Island holds up so well. I think my opinion on it has improved over the years, just a really solid intro movie for this version of Kong

Yep and by Kong versus Godzilla we find out all these natives except for one was wiped out in a storm.

Finally you completed phase 1 of the Monsterverse. Now you gotta wait for The apple plus Godzilla show The animated skull island show Godzilla and Kong 18:30 ah decker obviously since this movie is set way before the events of G14 without a doubt that no matter how many pictures she took monarch is gonna take those photos to make sure that they keep this stuff a secret. 22:52 he'll still die do to the pressure on the way down to the hollow earth remember the vortex

About time!

Thanks Decker. Was waiting for this one too.

The fact Kong only attacked them at the start was because what they were doing was bombing his home and causing a dangerous creature to come out of hibernation

Finally!!!!!!! I loved Kong: Skull Island. Ironic since this is Dinocember and Kong kind of fits perfectly for that month. In fact, you really should review the other Kong films sometime.

3:35 decker really just made a song reference. The song is called war, but i cant recall who sings it

A bit of correction, the Big One Skullcrawler wasn't the "queen" or any type of monarch sort of figure head. Just a massive Skullcrawler and he was also technically the only adult Skullcrawler.

Oh yeah. Dinocember is here, baby

Another banger of a review Decker! Quality content as always 💜

The Hollow Earth is real. She's called Agartha.

You explained the early issues with the pre-A1 M16 accurately. You might be the only non-guntuber to do that. If you're ever in Northern Cali and want to shoot some rare and badass pieces; hit me up, Shado. I'll make some sammiches and pay for the ammo.

Very good Kaiju movie review. It was about time a film maker made a King Kong movie that was completely different than the original 1933 movie, because two others already have. This version is one of my favorite Kaiju movies. I also noticed that one of the standard KZread commercials was a new movie coming out that stole your movie idea, AKA " Meth Gator". It's called Cocaine Bear. Can't wait for your movie review video of that movie sometime in the future! Oh, there's a Gamera animated film being shown on Netflix in the future as well.

I think John Goodman's battleship had a tango with Godzilla.

Nice starship troopers reference

I like to watch videos from this channel because they make me happy

It is possible to grip a sword by the blade without cutting your fingers off. Unlikely to be able to do it in the heat of combat, though.

One of the most fun Kong movies ever and I love them all!

100% right about the 4K thing. I saw this movie in 1080 at release and then rewatched it in 4K and could see nearly every particle of fire or dust.

@10:00 "Oh~ We are the valiant infantry. We are the alpha team with passion and camaraderie" EDF! EDF!

Another great review. Ah sure I have seen this movie multiple times before but its still fun to watch Decker Shado's fun approach to reviewing.

I swear I watched this video a year or two ago. Great video decker.

Honestly, this is my favorite Monsterverse movie and the one that got me interested in the Monsterverse in the first place. Godzilla vs Kong takes 2nd place.

It's a good romp, some monster FX remind me of The Mist monsters, but 33 is still a real pathfinder with FX and it's poetic large scale plot. You know, Carpenter use to tease us with sequel bait endings, but I tell you all these set ups these "universes" sort of hurts the movie magic, reminding us it wants to be a franchi$e...nothing stands alone.

I think it's understated how important this movie was for the Monsterverse franchise. Godzilla 2014 was a snoozefest by comparison where this movie was the first time that we saw potential in the franchise for enjoyable shared-universe kaiju films.

I totally forgot that Bree Larson is in this movie

Fans were not happy with that guy's death.

We all know Decker is the internet personality with the best hair. But who is the kaiju with the best hair?

Funny thing for any tabletop rpg players. The Kong book for EverydayHero actually revealed what giant ants are supposed to look like.

Great review, decker. Are ya planing on reviewing the original King Kong?

There is only one Monarch, and the venture bros. Will feel his wrath.

27:42 Gotta update that when Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is available for streaming.

I like all the movies but carry on making brilliant content 👍

Ngl that was my exact response to the Bamboo spider. EDF for life

There was one before this it's its own movie though the 2005 king kong that's actually pretty good an more true 2 the original story

If u pay attention to the movie it's kinda implied that kong was actually brought to the island, it would some what explain the ship on the island and why they have a shrine to either kong or his parents. What made no sense to me in this movie how the WW2 soldier found out this lore if none of the natives never talked to him.

The algorithm choice isnt bad this time , all Godzilla related 🙀 That aside, those crazy movies are perfect to get some great reaction and jokes from you 👌

I saw this in the cinema with a friend who passed out towards the beginning and on our way out, This white dude and his son were like "your buddy missed a badass movie" I was like "lol I know. I was awake the whole time"

Love your content decker...

A nice collection of marvel stars got Loki, Captain Marvel, Nick Fury, and a member of the Nova corps.

Thanks Decker I liked seeing the fauna of skull island and his “origin” story. Its also my birthday today.

About damn time decker... ;)

makes me wanna watch it again tbh

10:00 my son and I choked on our morning waffles... That was awesome 🤣🤣

Shame that the Monarch series declares this movie non canon (Titans are known since the 50s and are well documented and Monarch has unlimited resources, Hank would be contained and locked up because Monarch puts people who know to much away) and changes Godzilla 2014 (Bridge Scene, Bombing), what makes no sense because the series builds heavily on Skull Island which shouldn’t exist in the first place because of the contraindications of the series. It gives headaches to think about it.

I know Cole’s sacrifice is a joke, but they literally didn’t set up anything to indicate the creature were smart enough to know it was a trap. I just feel bad for the dude. It seemed like a really smart idea.

Anyway great review as always, it's refreshing to watch someone passionate about a subject being so without having to take down other subjects, in short your respect for filmmaking is appreciated, thank you decker !
