We are just art a month away from Kong: Skull Island, and if the movie itself is half as great as the trailers suggest, and a tenth as wonderful as the endless barrage of posters, we are in for a treat.
The latest awesome poster from Kong: Skull Island comes from Japan, and the Japanese certainly know how to frame big monster action in their artwork. Check it out:
Amazing. And it’s just the most recent in a whole collection. Previously released American posters really look to amp up the whole Vietnam era Apocalypse Now vibe of the movie. This IMAX poster is my personal favorite because it resembles AN fan art despite the fact it comes from the studio:
And if we didn’t have these, we would still have the first one. It’s magnificent as well, and the palette of blues and oranges is perfection.
Scientists, soldiers and adventurers unite to explore a mythical, uncharted island in the Pacific Ocean. Cut off from everything they know, they venture into the domain of the mighty Kong, igniting the ultimate battle between man and nature. As their mission of discovery soon becomes one of survival, they must fight to escape from a primal world where humanity does not belong.
Kong: Skull Island stars Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, Tom Hiddleston, and a wacky John C. Reilly who is already my favorite character from the film. It’s directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts, and is intended to set up a showdown between Kong and Godzilla some time in the future. We still have to get that second Godzilla movie up and running first.
We will see just how great this thing is March 10.
