As we approach the midway point I wanted to alert everyone that I've been monkeying around with the Kong Bonus by adding more films to watch and there are now two 50 point Kong bonuses possible. See Progress Thread for complete details.

Now, here's how the apes stand so far:
beatnik - 2615 points puts me in Caesar's spot but even Caesar had his downfall - beware the Ides of Smerd!
Box_A_Hair - 1808 points & first & only to complete the live POTA show so far.
Smerd - 1783 points - Smerdy is reading his way to the top.
JohanWoW - 1311 points sees Johan sampling both universes with a smattering of sexplo.
India - 1303 points - taking a classical approach with only one post 60's film so far.
peeptoad - 1273 points - give peeps a couple more Scooby Snacks and she could win this thing.
Foz - 1180 points - deserves a bonus for including one of my favorite docos, The King of Kong.
Troma - 648 points with complete disloyalty to Pota & Kong!
Ballz - 633 points with complete loyalty to POTA!
Gymnopedie - 91 points & lost in Boggy Creek...

EDIT: More monkey business - these guys posted too late to be included in the recap but here's their scores so far:
sethyeah - a whopping 1732 points jumps him to 4th place.
BarkingBaphomat - 651 points from six films.
NoseOfNicko - 253 points catapults him to second place.... from the last.

Now, get up and fight like apes!

nice work beats, gonna take a big effort from Smerd or Box to trouble you, maybe India if the volume of classics keeps coming.

this challenge didnt really enthuse at first, but i've been pleasantly suprised by the 70s pota sequels and mainstream monkiness in general. esp so the cannibal holocaust death in kid friendly Kong Skull Island! (poor image, but best i could find)

was suprised there wasn't a btter still, in the movie you get a frame or two glimpse of the spider leg impaling a soldier mouth through ass, like the iconic kebab native woman in CH bit gruesome for kids, but so fast they may not notice, cool of the filmmaker to throw in a video nasty nod in a family film tho

see my spoiler above for clarification on the CH ref, you would def know if you saw! it's the same dude who directed Godzila i think (could easy look it up in the time it takes me to type this procrastination but i can't be bothered) so a face off isn't improbable.

Agree that it was graphic for a fairly young audience (12A over here, which basically means 8 year olds could watch with a 12 yo) but i enjoyed the whole Heart of Darkness thing, even if John C hammed up his channeling Hopper a bit too much. The monster battles were really well done too. I saw KSI just a coupla days after DOTPOTA and aside from both having dodgy scripts the Kong film was far superior. The mo-cap stuff in Dawn was fantastic, esp Serkis, but that was about it for me. On the positive ape side, this challenge led me to the joys of Escape & the other original sequels which were suprisingly good fun, so thanks for that!
