>>>>Of course I've also heard that the reason Kong is strengthed by lightening is because he was originally suppose to be Toho's Frankenstein Monster - that's right Frankenstein vs. Godzilla.<<<<<<
That would make sense. I've heard John Beck peddeled the idea of Frankenstein Vs. King Kong around Hollywood and then to TOHO when he couldn't find any takers. Toho switched Frankenstien with Godzilla. I don't know, however, if John Beck was showing around a script with specific Ideas or scenes. That is I don't know how detailed the story was that he proposed, so maybe they did get the electricity idea from him. I always felt sorry for Willis Obrien when I read these stories. If there was ever a genius who was used and abused by Hollywood it was him. I know he sued Beck and Toho and that his wife continued the suit after he died, but she had to give it up because of lawyers fees.
