My Introduction to the Kaiju Kommunity

GojiFan99

I've wanted to do this for a while and that is to explain how I became interested in the giant movie monster madness that occurred over many years and continues to thankfully to this day.

When I was really young my mum bought 1933's King Kong on VHS and when I watched it I couldn't help but become immersed in the experience. I found myself intrigued by the stop-motion animation as well as Kong and the other creatures of Skull Island.

Around the same time I watched 1998's American remake of Godzilla, now that I think about it the movie works as a giant monster film but not as much a Godzilla film. It wasn't until Cinemassacre's Monster Madness Godzillathon AND this very video (seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lx0eIM-kfn8) caused me to fall in love with giant monsters as a whole. Over time I became addicted to Godzilla, Kong and other giant monsters such as Ultraman and Zone Fighter.

I'm happy to be a G-Fan, even though some people in the fanbase may be a bit "irritating" that shouldn't speak for the entire community as there are some great people here. I tend to stay off the YouTube side of Kaiju fans, as they tend to get into uncalled for firefights regarding Godzilla and Kong and it doesn't do much for the fanbase.

Another thing my favourite Godzilla "monster" is Jet Jaguar, I know he kinda doesn't LOOK like a monster per say but he is quite funky-looking. My favourite giant monster movie is King Kong (1933) next to Godzilla (1954) and that girls' choir scene really made me feel and think. Thanks for reading.

This forum is pretty tame OP, compared to some G-con folks I experienced myself.

This is awesome.

That was a nice story. Thank you for sharing.

I also love the OG King Kong. Have you seen the squeal Son of Kong? I enjoy it just as much, it not more, than the original. Especially the character development that Karl Denham goes through.

EmptyH I have seen Son of Kong yes, to be honest I kind of got what they did with it. They wanted to make it bigger but due to budget constraints they couldn't, although it is a fun movie to watch. Kong's son is funny too.
