I count nine specific reasons why Kong resonates:
The building-stomp slash line in general
Felix' regal poise vs. Pineda's grab-you-by-the-throat mound presence
Victims are of much smaller physical stature
The anger (not fear, not melancholy) when the airplanes get lucky
The simplified, unrefined two-pitch stomping technique
The 100 attack, 0 defense, "I am the intimidator, you are the intimidatee" attitude (did you watch Pineda take out Cabrera on Thursday?)
The sudden explosion into Times Square without apology
Victims do not consider any response other than fleeing
The names sound so sweet off the lips, either in tandem or singly
.
Missing anything?
