Hey guys first of I'd like to say this movie would be set in its own universe although I'd be happy to hear your opinions as to whether you think this would be good enough to be in the universe of the recent Godzilla movie.
Characters -
Godzilla
I see this Godzilla looking exactly like the recent movies Godzilla as in my mind its the perfect look to the famous monster and its an ideal view as to how the monster should look in these modern times, he's basically the same monster from the original movies but clearer, scarier and well how do you top how amazing he looked?
King Kong
I think I'd have to use the main character outline from Peter Jacksons King Kong but have slight redesigns to make him appear younger and take the scars away as I'll be trying to give Kong a new story in this movie. So basically I'd be using a cleaned up edited version of Jackson's.
Plot -
=================================================================================
GODZILLA VS KING KONG - BATTLE FOR THE CROWN
The movie starts with a view over 1933 Manhattan, smoke and flames can be seen from the streets around the Empire State Building due to the climatic ending of King Kong, although we cant really make out the dead Kong as crowds of people have surrounded the body as New York city police try to keep the crowds at bay, we are then shown thick chains places around the giant gorilla's legs before trucks pulling the dead Kong down the streets as the opening credits begin and ending with Kong being dumped into the sea we watch the body of Kong sink into the dark depts.
(Title appeares from the darkness)
In the present a news report is explaining that the world is celebrating the apparent death of Godzilla a huge monster that had spent three weeks on a destructive rampage, the U.S. military belive that Godzilla died taking numerous missiles to the head, The body sank in the ocean and the world celebrates the construction of the damage repairs being completed but as the world celebrates we are taken to the ran down apartment of Carl Denham Jr. an ageing man sitting looking out the window of the worn out apartment.
His son Michael walks in asking if he'll at least have a drink but Carl isn't interested he looks at his son and asks why the people are celebrating they know it'll happen again and that his father went crazy worrying another monster would exsist, Michael tells him that his grandpa Carl's stories were crazy this indicates that the goverment tried and seemingly covered up the events of King Kong.
Meanwhile a boat miles off the coast of Indonesia captained by British historian Professor Harry Winston has lost signal and navigation controls, suddenly the boat drifts to an island surrounded by skull shaped rocks, Harry wants to set foot on the island but half the crew refuse to.
During the night Harry and the crew are attacked and most are slaughtered by strange savage tribesmen from the island who have swam to their boat, Harry survies by being thrown from the boat by a crew member he swims to shore and runs into a clearing from the huge rocks surrounding the beaches of the island and into a jungle, as he runs he runs into a cave and hits his head causing him to colapse.
A group of scientist researching the radioactive effect possibly left by Godzilla detect movement in the south atlantic after researching where Godzilla's body may have floated over time, the head of the team Dr.Simon Dettel figures it could be a number of things but wants to be sure so he organises a team to be sent out to research. Back on the island Harry has woken up to find the cave he is in holds the skeletons of different explorers, he looks through a journal of a skeleton close to him and reads
"The island it calls to us, after two months at sea our current destination is lost to us none of the crew remember, we just know to head in this direction, the sky calls to us, it chants one word over and over 'KONG'..... The island from stories, The island my father told me about and his father told him of, The Skull Island, home of the monsters and their king.... The Kong"
Harry leaves the cave and returns to the boat, it has been washed up ashore and crew men lie dead on the beach with no sight of the tribesmen Harry runs to the boat, once on board he finds the rest of the crew dead but one man is missing, from the island chanting can be heard "Kong Kong Kong" Harry heads into the jungle to see whats going on.
The tribesmen have the last crew man tied up in a classic sacrafical scene as they chant Kong, Harry from up in the tree's looks down and watches as the ground pounds, the chanting carrys on, finally two furry arms crash through the ground, the tribesmen stop and stare in amazement as out from the darkness of smoke rising from the broken ground, stands Kong.
Meanwhile in Japan weather reports fly through the roof with non stop heavy rain and record breaking winds, there are report of missing aircraft and there have been earthquakes constantly for the last four hours, all networks and signals are down and military bases have been demolished but off the coast of Japan in the pacific a giant dark mountain can be seen the top covered in thick black clouds.
In New York Michael is caring for his Carl Jr. who appears to be sick, as Michael tries to get his father to take his medication a news report tells of mass destruction in Indonesia and an amatuer picture shows a dark figure, Carl looks up and states that its happening again and how two forces of nature can't keep away from each other, in the end they will always come to blows.
In Indonesia Harry is seen in a medical bay when two paramedics talk about how he was found almost dead after swimming the rough sea conditions, the camera zooms up and wee see the destruction that leads into the forrests, in the forrests we see Kong resting.
Back in Japan the huge mountain begins to crack and sharp ice forms from the cracks leading to the sea as a monsterous roar is heard, in the pacific ocean a dark figure slowly shifts from the dark ocean bed and swims east, as the weather conditions around the world change and become dangerous we see Kong in the forrest puzzled by the sound of cracking and bangs he looks up and sees military jets soar past him shooting something, Kong emerges from the tree's and stops in suprise looking at something.
The camera turns and we get our first look at Godzilla as he stands in the ocean, his full body shown and the jets shooting him but he ignores them as he and Kong lock eye contact the camera turns again to Kong as he roars and runs for Godzilla, Godzilla returns the roar and charges for Kong as they clash in a fist fight.
Michael walks into his fathers apartment to find Carl Jr. watching the tv that shows Kong and Godzilla's fight, he turns to Michael and with a horrified look on his face mutters "I told yah", Godzilla and Kong go at each other throwing punches, Kong grabs Godzilla wrapping his arms around Godzilla's neck and throwing him back into the forrest then beating his chest, the military have shown up and are attacking both monsters.
Godzilla is taking a beating until Kong jumps up to attack the grounded Godzilla but bfore Kongs attack can reach the monster Godzilla uses his atomic blast to throw Kong back by miles, as the military group march up to the forrest they are swept away by the blast.
A thick ice path has formed halfway across the pacific the monster that formed inside the mountain can be seen to be white from behind, it is much bigger than Godzilla and Kong and has huge icebergs growing on its back, arms and legs but a lava like pulse appeares like veins all over its body, using back up satalites scientists in America watch the monster naming it 'The Titan'.
Godzilla has fled the battle scene and has made his way to Japan via swimming, in Japan Godzilla looks at all the destruction left from the bad conditions we can see from his reaction that somewhere in Godzilla there is sympathy, a group of scientists from across the world meet to figure out a solution as to how to kill all three monsters but one scientist believes that he knows how Kong and Godzilla are still alive.
Harry is brought into the room in a wheelchair, he explains that the night Kong smashed through the ground he torn the tribesmen apart and then swam away from the island, Harry only escaped via drift wood, the scientist that brought him in explains that he believes that Kong's body eventually made its way close to the islan where the tribesmen had been searching for the missing ape, found the body and buried it then using what they thought was magic to summon him back in new health but really it was the radioactivity from The Titan that revived the Kong.
Talk turns to Godzilla and that he never died but showed them that he is like a wild animal at first contact he is wild and scared but then adapted to human life on the planet and wants to live in peace, but the radioactivity that comes off Godzilla, The Titan and now Kong pulls them together unable to resist fighting and to become the alpha leader like some animals.
Kong following Godzilla's trail is now also in Japan and like Godzilla has felt sympathy after seeing the destruction, in the pacific The Titan has created a massive mountain of ice and lava that is causing massive waves of destructive energy and is killing the planet, Godzilla and Kong come face to face in Japan and again fight in a city, this battle causes a lot of damage and the city is evacuated, this time Godzilla has the upper hand having experience fighting in a city setting before where as Kong never fought anything worth his time during his experience in New York.
This fight ends with Godzilla beating Kong into a big tower building and then turning to leave the ape to lick his wounds but Kong's pride takes over and the ape continues to fight although he is obviously loosing a lot of energy.
Back in New York Michael watches out the window as The Titan's destructive influence to the weather causes floods and thunder, Carl Jr. tells his son that eventually the monsters will stop and that in reality it was their home before it was ours.
In Japan Kong has been punching Godzilla into the ground finally knocking Godzilla out Kong leaves for the pacific and across the massive path of ice, The Titan rests high above its mountain then hears a roar, its Kong who begins to climb the mountain but Titant leaps down throwing Kong off and into the ocean before diving in itself to beat Kong.
It looks like Kong is about to die from both drowing and being beaten but suddenly the Titan stops looks behind itself and we see Godzilla gripped onto the Titans tail and dragg it away from Kong allowing Kong to swim back to the top, once Kong is out of the way Godzilla takes a harsh beating but it is revealed that he is only allowing this to charge his atomic breath that sends Titan far back and then swimming off fast, Godzilla reaches the top and is met by Kong but instead of trading punches the two seem to have found a mutal respect for each other.
Michael and Carl Jr. watch tv as it states that the military have issued a warning that all shelters are full and that anyone left in their homes should stay there but the tv cuts out and all power goes down, The Titan has swam to New York in a rapid speed, it begins to attack and destroy the city as soon as it arrives showing that it has the power to shoot energy blasts and can freeze things by touch.
The scientists have been left with no power and so satalites have been useless but suddenly the power comes back showing that The Titans mountain has been destroyed by punches and atomic blasts slightly calming the bad conditions.
In New York Titan is using its power to build a new mountain and all military forces freeze before they can reach the monster, suddenly Titan turns and looks out at the frozen sea that begins to crack and then smash as Godzilla's sharp back fins smashing through as he swims underneath, The Titan marches over to stop Godzilla but is drop kicked by Kong who ironically uses the empire state building to swing around and block an attack.
Godzilla emerges and together he and Kong beat the Titan back to its mountain where the Titan reveals it have an energy black that combines lava with energy this sends Kong flying back and then Titan breathes in and sends a black to Godzilla but Godzilla uses his atomic blast to block and the two create a bright beam vs beam duel.
As the two close in on each other they exchange punches with Godzilla breaking ice from Titan, Titan punches Godzilla into the mountain and then runs over to him, standing over him ready to give one last deadly blast Kong appears behind the Titan holding on to its upper jaw, before the Titan can react Godzilla reaches up and grabs the lower jaw and the two struggle to pull, The Titan charges one last blast but the two monsters snap its jaw and deliver finishing punches, but Titans blast is already charged and it goes off destroying the mountain and all three monsters.
The next day the military and other forces help clear rubble and watch as the mountain crumbles to nothing with Titans body blowing apart like ash, Michael and his father watch from the apartment window and Carl Jr. tells Michael "This time they learned to co excist" they turn to the tv as the news reports that neither Godzillas or Kongs bodies were found.
Harry and the scientists watch as the earth reverts back to normal and they celebrate, but Harry looks back on the screen at a radiation level and smiles whispering to himself "Maybe....".
On Skull Island the rock walls have been torn down Kong walks through the jungle but stops and looks back to the ocean where Godzilla stands they give one final look to each other and part ways but then Kong stops and gives off a grunt looking back one more time.
The screen goes to black as the roars of Godzilla and Kong are heard as if charging for each other.
