The line about a "mechanized giant" on Skull Island could have been a reference to one of Godzilla's greatest enemies, Mechagodzilla. But what of the organic Titans mentioned in the same article? This, too, could have some level of importance in the MonsterVerse. In fact, it could have something to do with a monster who almost fought Kong in his first Toho movie. In the 1960s, King Kong creator Willis H. O'Brien wrote a treatment for a movie titled King Kong vs. Prometheus. Like the original King Kong movie, this film would have used stop motion animation. As for the story, the King Kong sequel would have seen the titular ape go up against Prometheus, a creature created by the grandson of Dr. Frankenstein. So basically the plan was for Kong to fight a giant-size version of Frankenstein's monster. Unfortunately, American studios weren't interested in the treatment, so O'Brien sold it to Toho, who re-purposed it to make what would become the legendary grudge match, King Kong vs. Godzilla. Prometheus was removed from the story and replaced by Toho's own monster, Godzilla. After King Kong vs. Godzilla, Kong only starred in one more Toho movie, King Kong Escapes, so he never had another chance to cross paths with Prometheus. However, Toho did end up making their own version of Frankenstein's monster in a different movie, but he was never called Prometheus. The monster's first and only film appearance came in 1965's Frankenstein vs. Baragon.
