Not gonna lie, overall I enjoyed the first edit a lot better. Basically just what the film needed: less fluff.

This one was a bit weaker due to a number of reasons. I didn't like the way the trip to the island was handled, especially the juxtaposition of the party scene. I also didn't like the way the discovery of the fact that they were going to Skull Island was spread out. When they actually got on the island, I felt that the added scene with the Ferrucutus was misplaced, as I though the Brontosaurus baxteri scene introduced the "pre-historic" nature of the island a lot better. The extended scene with the Piranhadon as well as the part where Jimmy takes Haye's hat, I did like.

Anyways, that's just what I thought. Sorry it wasn't positive for this one, but I greatly enjoyed Version 1 so I think I'll hang on to that.

Just curious, what edits do you have planned next? I've always enjoyed your previous ones, and am looking forward to the next one.
