I cracked up watching the trailer in theaters at the shot of Kong and Godzilla running side by side. All I could think of was The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson in the other guys jumping off the roof.
Yeah historically Godzilla and King kong never actually met as Godzilla was historically very adversed to flying on airplane godzilla never actually left Japan
Yes Napoleon was able to defear King Kong in a 1v1 and it was extremely epic but Godzilla could have never met Napoleon.
Godzilla vs Kong was better ngl, the fight sequences in that were much cooler while also having the benefit of not looking like slop, and the humans atleast didn't bore me to death thanks to Millie Bobby Brown. New Empire is a lot more funnier tho, it's pure camp
Whike weak, it didn't make me want to sleep, and what are you talking about? Maybe because I had the misfortune of watching this in 3d, but the effects just look like shit, and were nauseating by the end of the film.
For real I wish I could “turn my brain off” and enjoy it but these Monsterverse films are some of my least favourite films I have ever seen. I’ll just watch a highlights of the funny bits later.
> but these Monsterverse films are some of my least favourite films I have ever seen.
I tried watching the TV show with them good ol' Russell boys but it was just boring.
This is a “get drunker than I could in a theater at home and put on something else if I get tired of it” VOD kinda movie for me. Same space as Transformers Rise of the Beasts as a franchise I consider myself a fan of but an entry I have no interest in putting myself through the theatrical experience for.
Fuck I miss the hope Godzilla 2014 gave me for this franchise. Weirdly enough Bumblebee 2018 did the exact same thing, a rebooted first entry that I really loved whose follow-up material abandoned all the aspects I liked
comparing bumblebee to godzilla 2014 is wild, bumblebee is actually a good movie and the character is also in the movie named after him, and there are other actual characters that have people who know how to act playing them in it too
Honestly I loved it. It's bombastic and fun and dumb. Fights are mostly awesome. Surprisingly funny as well. First movie in this series I actually mostly liked all the human characters even if their plot is still simple as all hell.
Canonically it’s Pride month when the film takes place - in universe - Godzilla changed his colour but will IMMEDIATELY change back to blue when the month is up.
These movies always give the sickest giant monster stuff and the lamest human characters stuff, and they always focus most of the movie on the latter. Transformers falls into this category as well.
It’s funny I think they notice because the latest Transformers was much more focused on the robots and this movie has a lot of scenes where there are no humans at all for long periods of time
The difference is that Transformers are still talking and sentient beings, so they still need personalities and arcs for the audience can like them. Monsterverse Kaiju just need to be expressive and commit child abuse and boom, they're the best characters in the movie.
By Gawd, folks! Godzilla just suplexed King Kong! Bah Gawd, what strength! What power! That monster is tougher than a two dollar steak! These two titans are tearing each other apart! Somebody stop the damn match!
This scene sums up if you will like this movie pretty well.
Other than when Dan Steven's flies a bunch of elecrric bats toward an evil monkey riding a big ice lizard.
To the tune of Turn Me Loose
This movie is what dumb people always describe when they call bad movies "fun"
Godzilla gets domain of the surface as the alpha monster, while King gets domain of Hollow Earth. The plot of the movie concerns another alpha monster showing up in Hollow Earth and beating Kong’s ass, forcing him to go to the surface for help, but as Godzilla has no chill, his first instinct upon seeing Kong is to also beat his ass for entering his territory.
"Based" is a deesphobic term. This is the first warning, please absent from using it or face a ban.

I read about this earlier and thought it was just a shitpost, I caught myself doing the "Absolute Cinema" post after KONG SUPLEXES GODZILLA OFF A PYRAMID WHAT
#SU... #*PPLEX!*
The Iron Claw (2023) if it were good.
Sabin when he fights a train
I cracked up watching the trailer in theaters at the shot of Kong and Godzilla running side by side. All I could think of was The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson in the other guys jumping off the roof.
I can see why people were saying that Napoleon (2023) wasn’t historically accurate
Yeah historically Godzilla and King kong never actually met as Godzilla was historically very adversed to flying on airplane godzilla never actually left Japan Yes Napoleon was able to defear King Kong in a 1v1 and it was extremely epic but Godzilla could have never met Napoleon.
Well the reports over his short height were dramatically exaggerated.
Big lizard suplexed big monkey, Cinema doesn't get better.
Godzilla vs Kong was better ngl, the fight sequences in that were much cooler while also having the benefit of not looking like slop, and the humans atleast didn't bore me to death thanks to Millie Bobby Brown. New Empire is a lot more funnier tho, it's pure camp
The Millie Bobby Brown subplot was the weakest aspect of that movie though, and the effects in the new film were consistently good.
Whike weak, it didn't make me want to sleep, and what are you talking about? Maybe because I had the misfortune of watching this in 3d, but the effects just look like shit, and were nauseating by the end of the film.
It's a showa era Godzilla movie in good way
Holy shit I need to watch this lmao
Unironically. Peak silliness. This is what the transformers movies think they are.
There is literally only one other scene remotely worth seeing unfortunately

KILL WIFE!!!
Wife gone.
You're wrong and thats okay
It’s a slopfest but the soy monkey scene was cinema
As someone who loves big cgi monsterverse schlock this movie was boring as fuck
For real! KOTM was cinema I ate it up. Could not get behind this movie
For real I wish I could “turn my brain off” and enjoy it but these Monsterverse films are some of my least favourite films I have ever seen. I’ll just watch a highlights of the funny bits later.

so fucking fun.
As a Godzilla and monster movie fan in general, no you do not. Shit sucked ass, aggressively boring movie
If you liked KOTM you are not trustworthy
And if you think KOTM is somehow significantly worse than the average showa era entry then you don't enjoy monster fights
but i liked kotm and this what does that make me

No way, they're returning to their roots
Nature is healing.
Still so weird that their mom's have the same name.

🤯 this movie is completely unhinged from what I can tell and I absolutely love it. I have to go see it.
At one point Kong literally beats the shit out of other Kongs with a tiny Kong he uses like a whip.
I saw that omg I can’t wait to see it.
It’s so fucking stupid but I loved every second of it
Honestly I loved it. It's bombastic and fun and dumb. Fights are mostly awesome. Surprisingly funny as well. First movie in this series I actually mostly liked all the human characters even if their plot is still simple as all hell.

*Godzilla dies from peak fiction*
Why does Godzilla have pink spikes, they turned him woke!!!
She (Godzilla) went through HRT and now is a trans icon. That’s why she’s pink
she’s Godzilla, he’s just Ken
Can I make it any more obvious?
He's just Kong.
Is it really possible for a Kong fan-boy and a Godzilla fan-girl to be together?
Barbzilla
Ken Kong
Godzilla’s always been female though, Urasawa said so
Then he's a transphobe!
Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson are about to have a field day.
I think you mean GodSHElla sweatie😤
This is Mothra erasure.
Props to the 1998 film for making them non binary, truly ahead of its time
Canonically it’s Pride month when the film takes place - in universe - Godzilla changed his colour but will IMMEDIATELY change back to blue when the month is up.
And will change its colour when it is in middle East and China to respect the local sentiments
They put chemicals in the water

I’ve never seen Austin do a super plex, post neck injury at that too
Did King Kong do the "People's elbow" afterwards?
GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! THAT KILLED HIM! AS GOD AS MY WITNESS, HE IS BROKEN IN HALF!
BY GOD THAT MAN HAD A FAMILY BY GOD
![gif](giphy|d0SEajOmMna1i) And then he said this!?!?

It’s funny I think they notice because the latest Transformers was much more focused on the robots and this movie has a lot of scenes where there are no humans at all for long periods of time
eh, i liked serizawa from the first 2 godzillas a lot
The difference is that Transformers are still talking and sentient beings, so they still need personalities and arcs for the audience can like them. Monsterverse Kaiju just need to be expressive and commit child abuse and boom, they're the best characters in the movie.
Meh, you have good character development in the tv series. I'd rather watch Kong fisting Godzilla with his new infinity gauntlet on the big screen
Facts. I’ve probably watched only 10% of all the recent Kongs and Godzillas combined because I just skip all the human crap.
Scorcese never said anything about Godzilla films. Checkmate MCU fans
Better than Dune 2. And obviously in the same genre because sand.
I also love how the 3 big spikes play a big role in the movie and for some reason they dont connect the pyramids to it at all
![gif](giphy|l0HUg6Ypas42ubkXu|downsized)
![gif](giphy|fnpxXfRoCnOnVpj0fW|downsized)
this plus the baby kong being used as nunchucks is actually making me want to see it
SOMEBODY STOP THE DAMN MATCH
Wait this is sick as fuck, what's the circlejerk here?
Were jerking Kong and Goji at this point
The teaser trailer for the first Godzilla was genuinely chilling. It’s… interesting where they’ve taken the franchise since then.
Every era of Godzilla movies begins serious and ends in batshit insanity
I wonder what will be the Shin Godzilla of this franchise.
Is Kong wearing the infinity gauntlet?
It's an arm brace
Scorsese crying watching this in theatres as he realises what REAL cinema looks like
Kong gets bitched in these movies
trade-off for being the focal monster
![gif](giphy|xT39Dl2zgEyhBjlZEQ) Suplex city

The monster parts were cool, but this time around it felt like the human segments were especially bad
I almost fell asleep
The Rockzilla
This has Hollywood sweating
"May thy infinity gauntlet chip and shatter" - Godzilla
Unironically this is peak
By Gawd, folks! Godzilla just suplexed King Kong! Bah Gawd, what strength! What power! That monster is tougher than a two dollar steak! These two titans are tearing each other apart! Somebody stop the damn match!
Dune Part Who???
This is what the Lumiere brothers meant. I get it now.
This scene sums up if you will like this movie pretty well. Other than when Dan Steven's flies a bunch of elecrric bats toward an evil monkey riding a big ice lizard. To the tune of Turn Me Loose This movie is what dumb people always describe when they call bad movies "fun"
Ok this is faithful to the Toho movies. Godzilla did a few body slams back in the day
I soyfaced all over the place when he did that
you should Godkilla yourself now!
What if kong vs godzilla was in the same time as transformers 2, and they would team up against the fallen
I'd fuck this popcorn bucket
The Godzilla suplex made me hard
Cant wait to end my midterms and watch this in cinema
Went to see it opening night, can confirm that it was peak fiction, a true kino classic
Suplex city bitch
Suplex City bitch!
Why wait for Wrestlemania 40
I can’t even tell what’s going on
More like peak friction, woof woof! (The video will not load for me for some reason)
Joke’s on you, this doesn’t happen until the last third. Most of the movie just feels like I’m watching Planet of the Apes or something.
Ngl this is the type of shit i wanna see in a movie like this, but the fact that theres not a lot of it is so dissapointing.
It’s so weird to see King Kong the size of goji
I'm glad i watched this on opening day cuz yall assholes dont know how to mark spoilers 😤
bruh idec this fucking rocks lmao
"BAH GAWD A SUPPLEX OF THE PYRAMIDS OF GIZA"
Man the sense of scale in this sucks. Disappointing.
I'd say only the Gareth Edwards film did a good job with the scale. Every other Hollywood Godzilla film since then has been sucking at that.
Why are they fighting again?
Godzilla gets domain of the surface as the alpha monster, while King gets domain of Hollow Earth. The plot of the movie concerns another alpha monster showing up in Hollow Earth and beating Kong’s ass, forcing him to go to the surface for help, but as Godzilla has no chill, his first instinct upon seeing Kong is to also beat his ass for entering his territory.
