    Tom Hiddleston can do no wrong. I’m already looking forward to Crimson Peake. Skull Island will be similarly amazing.

    You channeling the “Wicked Witch of the West” Performance from the “Wizard of Oz”….. hmm maybe you somewhat jest about all this monster-verse.  Still way to spin the concept.  LIKE.

    This is basically how you say “Hello” at Comiccon.

    Why is Nerdist News promoting this Skull Island movie so heavily? Hmmmm maybe its because Legendary Entertainment owns Nerdist!
