We dive into King Kong, from 2017's Kong: Skull Island. Adam has a creative system for Kong's heat loss, Dave turns one of the most majestic movie monsters of all time into a hairless, toeless freak, and Sam sits around mumbling things hungover.

S1E2: The Ents (Lord of the Rings- 2002/2003)

Welcome to Cinematica Animalia! If you share our love of both science and movie monsters, then tune in as we - two ecologists, one veterinarian, and a writer - explore the ecology and physiology of cinematic creatures; explaining what works, what mostly doesn’t, and how the movie’s plot is subsequently affected. At the end of the day, we just love talking about science.
