King Kong (1933 film) vs Rancor (Return of the Jedi)

It's classic Kong ready to challenge the dangerous Rancor in a fight to the death.

Battle Location: Petranaki arena (Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones).

Kong shit stomps.

The Rancor in Jedi was malnourished and abused.

Even the smallest Kong(50 feet/5 tons) is a giant to that Rancor. It was a normal one that was smaller and weaker due to imprisonment. So barely 16 feet and nowhere near full strength.

Kong faced stronger opposition, he wins this

If he was so malnourished and abused, why did his handler cry after Luke killed him?

Nowhere as low as 16 feet.

https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Jabba%27s_rancor

The official wiki has it at 5 meters which is roughly 16½ft. And its weight at 1,650 kilos which is about 3,638lbs.

A statement from Luke himself in the movie - "The Keepers forced Jabba's rancor into a dungeon where it could barely move. It was half-starved. Though I didn't have a choice, I'm still sorry I had to kill it."

Not his main keepers fault. But Jabba only let it be fed when he stopped someone in the pit. And he kept it cooped up in a pit where it could barely move and had to constantly fight to eat and survive. His keeper actually was planning to betray Jabba and escape with the Rancor but Luke showed up before he got the chance.

Luke even said later he killed it to out it out of its misery more than his own protection as it was so abused and malnour6it would be impossible to save it.

The rancor saved his life in the desert and they bonded. But he still worked for Jabba so he couldn't do much aside from try and take care of it as best he could without defying his orders.

So despite his love, it was still malnourished and abused as it was literally kept in a too small pit under a trap door and only fed the things/people dropped in it and the creatures he fought and killed for Jabba's amusement.

So by virtue of being about 35 feet taller and several thousand pounds heavier. Kong puts Jabba's rancor out of its misery yet again.

In Legends the handler did feed the Rancor.

Nowhere near enough. It also doesn't change the fact that a normal Rancor is about the size of Jabba's but probably heavier due to a decent diet and much better muscles since it can move around and hunt. So Jabba's has even worse odds.

Kong would make a badass jedi. Give him a 20 foot lightsaber.

Imagine if he could use the Force? A 50 foot ape telikinetically chucking buildings.

Yoda could ride on his shoulder. They would be a force to be reckoned with.

Yoda would need a special box or seat or something. He's even smaller than the chick he loves by like 3 feet lol.

Kong has all the advantages here

Kong’s balls are bigger than your mothers that’s for sure

Well if his mother is a normal sized woman I sure hope Kong has bigger balls than her.

He said his mom had huge king sized nuts.
