- Forgot to update in earlier post that have also watched this movie "Godzilla vs Kong"
- This was watched in last week of March at Laxmi Theatre, Tavarakere
- I will say that this movie is like Beastie Boys Intergalactic video
- And organic monster fights an artificial monster.
- In the Beastie Boys video the organic monster is the villian.
- In the movie Godzilla vs Kong, the human created Godzilla becomes the villain.
- I will say they have posted too much faith in human capabilities.
- Humans cannot create something like what is shown in the movie and almost indestructible Godzilla.
- I will give an example.
- Humans create cars and bikes.
- How easily they get into accident and become disabled requiring several days of repair.
- Even the riders are not safe inside them.
- So an artificial Godzilla is just not possible.
- If Godzilla is a dream, someone can create an artificial Godzilla is even more "dreamy".
- In this movie towards the end Godzilla and King Kong have to join forces to defeat this "artificial rogue 'gone wild' Godzilla".
- But I did not understand why they have to leave Hong Kong in ruins as in the movie.
- Godzilla is a Japanese creation.
- Japan is an island nation and heavily bombed and nuked twice in Second World War and thus forced into submission.
- So now Western nations are feeling guilty and they do not want to show Japanese cities like Tokyo getting destroyed and so they targeted Hong Kong.
- King Kong name must have also been inspired from "Hong Kong". "Kong" is common factor over there.
- King Kong lived in a mythical Island somewhere in Indonesia archipelago as per original sources.
- Hong Kong is also a place close to sea surrounded by mountains and added to mystery.
- Not anymore since at least three decades where areas surrounding Hong Kong inside China have developed tremendously.
