KONG: SKULL ISLAND - Full Trailer & Posters
After a series of countdown clips, and the SDCC teaser before that, the full trailer for KONG: SKULL ISLAND premiered on Jimmy Kimmel Live - and features the full reveal of this latest incarnation of KING KONG, and as well TWO poster images (via @kongskullisland Twitter).
As gathered from the trailer, the backstory/background of bomb-testing irradiating and leading directly to the growth of gigantic monsters, parallels that of GODZILLA (The current linking thread references “Monarch”; the secret government entity @ www.discoverskullisland.com - first revealed in Gareth Edward’s 2014 “Godzilla”), and looks like Kong has to (and have been) dealing with what John C. Reilly’s character calls “Skullcrawlers”, that might lead somewhen to Kong versus Godzilla - as is the aim of Legendary Pictures x Warner Bros to have a unified universe of giant monsters, and I am so down with that!
PREMISE: "In the 1970s, a team of explorers is brought together to venture deep into an uncharted island in the Pacific—as beautiful as it is treacherous—unaware that they are crossing into the domain of the mythical giant gorilla known as Kong."(Kong Skull Island on #popcornX)
