What was the show Carl Denham was putting on in King Kong. He was charging a lot of money ($20 in 1933 dollars). So he had some actors doing native dancing and then Ann Darrow comes out and everyone sees Kong...and then...? I mean do they just stare at Kong for an hour in his "chrome steel" shackles? Or is is over in 15 minutes. What's the show? And where were they going to keep Kong between shows, they can't keep him chained up like that. Kong escapes at the premiere, so we never know.
And another thing, Denham was keeping this a big secret, the theater audience did not know what Kong was, but after he is free the police call goes out "Kong has escaped!" how do any of the police know what that is?

The marquee outside the theatre:



The show is to see a monster. Its a monster show. So yes, the idea was that rich people got to go in and look at a monster for a few minutes. Sounds boring to you and me, maybe, but in 1933 thats a big day out on the town!

Denham could not have kept it a secret, in spite of what he may have said. Kong arrived on a giant boat and was unloaded for all the world to see. Rumors would have flown.

Denham would have kept him chained up like that. Exactly as he was. Denham was a jerk, he never intended to keep the ape happy or well taken care of, just wanted money.

The police probably knew who Kong was because the whole town would have been talking about it. Giant ape arrives on boat, Broadway show with Kong in big bold letters on the marquee. Yah, they knew.

Here is my question about the movie - Kong accepted sacrifices by the natives of Skull Island and in return he left them alone. That was their bargain. So, in light of that, was Kong a sympathetic character who should have been left on his own, ruling over the natives by threat of death, or is he a raging monster who had to eventually be destroyed?

Movie: Batman Returns
2 Batman signals are visible outside of the Wayne Manor.
Why did Bruce Wayne not see a flaw with that inane idea?
Also why have persons not discovered Bruce Wayne or concluded that Bruce Wayne is Batman with that easy to see visible evidence?

That is pretty damn unbelievable.

Not from that particularly, but people have in the past discovered that Bruce Wayne was Batman. It was a minor plot point in The Dark Knight, and in the comics a few years back, which forced Wayne to go public as the funding behind Batman.

That's a freakin lame explanation.

Thanks !

Imagine if it was like the Monty Python milkman sketch. Kong's cave is full of woman, some of them very old.

Ok... so was Mulders sister killed by a pedo/serial killer or taken away by aliens? Or was it supposed to be left up in the air? Either I'm just really dense or wasn't paying attention. I admit I hated the last two seasons of X-Files and barely watched it then.

One guy's take...

Felt like "Serial Killer", but they didn't completely pin it down.

The first video can be chilling. It's what happens to those who fall into darkness. This is why you need to come to the light, and come to Jesus Christ.

Movie: Batman and Robin
How did Mr.Freeze expect Poison Ivy to move a life support tank?
That weighs more than 300 pounds so that is like telling a guy move a Pool Table which is impossible since a Pool table weighs more than 630 pounds.

Robocop Trilogy
Why is it not common knowledge to Detroit Criminals that Robocop is bulletproof?

Really because Selina Kyle did go the house so it wouldn't be implausible for her to tell other persons except she doesn't because this is a movie that glaring flaws including Batman discovers Penguin's plan by making him look like he's psychic, or the unbelievable it's contrived of being in the right place at the right time.

Why does it feel like that one already came up?

Why did Robert Kraft The Patriots owner not use the easy legal solution of paying for sex in a brothel in Reno where it's legal or some other brothel in the World where prostitution is legal?
A easy legal solution instead of paying a woman to have sex with a woman in a location where it is not legal which he did. He can't claim ignorance that he doesn't know Reno and other locations in the World that have brothels where prostitution is legal.

It amazes me you are extremely happy me telling you that your answer is a freakin lame explanation.

...

Movie: Blade
How did Frost and his Gang find Blade's Lair?
The Nice Place line took a while for us to find it line never provides a explanation all it does is tell the audience Frost and his Gang have been searching for Blade's lair for a unknown high amount of time.

Having seen the film again recently, the film's reasoning seems to add up.

- Frost had already had tracking down Blade on the back burner for a while.
- Most of the elements of Frost's plan are solidly in place. Blade/Whistler are the most likely hitch as that plan comes to fruition.
- Factor in the number of Blade's clashes with Frost's people from the start of the film up until they find the hideout.

That run up surely increases the chances that Frost will be able to finally track Blade's hideout down.
