I've owned this film for about a year, but am leaving it purposefully unwatched until I've seen 'King Kong' [now done], 'Godzilla' [now done], 'Godzilla Rides Again' and 'Son Of Kong'. My query is...with Kong dying at the end of his adventure in 1931 [year from Wold Newton], and Kiko dying after his film...and 'Godzilla' stated in dialogue as 1954...who fights Godzilla in this film?? Godzilla himself I understand [see the Wold Newton Godzilla timeline for his resurrection], but not Kong!

The King Kong in this film has NOTHING to do with original Hollywood one. This Kong is a Japanese interpretation and is a new beast with a new back story. This is like how the Hollywood Godzilla is utterly different then the one from the TOHO films, in terms of origin and continuity.


The Original Godzilla is much, much larger than the Original Kong anyway.
