As far as I can tell, Kong was created wholly by the maker of the original film, Merian C. Cooper. "Lost World" settings were popular at the time, thanks to Burroughs and Doyle, so there's some influence there, not to mention lots of Greek and Medieval tales of virgins being carried off by gods and dragons and such.
Being a vampire is not what it seems like. It’s a life full of good, and amazing things. We are as human as you are.. It’s not what you are that counts, but how you choose to be. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Richvampirekindom@gmail.com
Clearly the word of the day is "diaphanous." :)
ReplyDeleteQuestion: was King Kong (1933) the first incarnation of the whole "giant ape after sexy girl" theme... or were there earlier incarnations?
