I recently discovered that Google will be closing down their Photo Album Archives on July 19th. Since I have literally thousands of images uploaded there from the various blogs that I created over the past couple of decades, I'm faced with the challenge of going through them all for images that I want to keep. So I have been frantically going through album downloading everything that I wanted to preserve.
I wanted share some of these classic movie images with everyone. Today I decided to go with a couple of screen captures that I took from the 1962 Japanese monster mash King Kong vs Godzilla.
Synopsis:
Tako, advertising director of Pacific Pharmaceuticals, is frustrated by the low viewership of their sponsored documentary show and realizes that he needs a more sensationalist approach. Tako orders two of his men, Sakurai and Furue, on an expedition to Faro Island to investigate a legendary monster called King Kong and exploit it for advertising. Just as the expedition is underway, Godzilla emerges from an iceberg and sets his sights towards Japan, sparking a media frenzy that steals publicity away from Tako's own monster. As Kong is captured and hauled back to Japan, people begin to wonder which monster is stronger and capable of beating the other. Tako realizes the marketability of King Kong facing off against Godzilla as the two monsters are pitted against each other in the biggest wrestling match of all time. - IMDB
