Godzilla vs Kong (2021)

[NightHun07]

Debating on whether to see this at the theater or not. I really think this needs to be seen on the big screen.

GO TO THE THEATER!

If you can do it safely, see this on the big screen.

 

[Bubba Gump Jr]

I’ll probably see it on the big screen for a second or third viewing. First time is gonna be at home on HBO. Since I own it, I might as well use it and watch the movie when I get up.

 

[Joefixit]

To be fair, from what I understand this kinda is Wingard. Bringing creative, colorful, and vibrant style to both Godzilla and Kong. Imagine having both Wingard and Roberts on a project. That would be insane!

I would have loved to see Roberts direct this Film. He’s a noted Kong fan in the same vane of Wingard being a Godzilla fan. I would have loved to see him at the helm or both directors together.

If this movie does good enough financially we may not have to worry about the critics input. Just take a look at F&F and Bayformers.

Fingers crossed.

I just want the Monsterverse to go far enough to get to another film where we see Mothra again or if we're lucky, her own film. I find her Monsterverse design fantastic.

I think ending it on the next film being Destroy All Monsters would be the best way to go. They don’t get carried away and make a bunch of films, they just give us one more good one that’s this big monster royal rumble conclusion.

If they’re still going by that leaked timeline from like 2018 (I think?), then that seems to be the case.

The Monsterverse timelines you see floating around are fan-made, so I wouldn't put much stock in them.

Actually... long post ahead

Someone on Reddit a month or two ago brought up something interesting. They showed a timeline that appeared circa 2017. That timeline had G14, KSI, KOTM, GvK, and then Destroy all Monsters. G14 had the poster for that movie and KSI had its poster, which had either just been revealed or was just about to be revealed. Due to the fact that KOTM had nothing to show yet (it was 2017) along with the fact that no one thought that a new Destroy all Monsters would be a thing, everyone thought the timeline was fake.

But, someone in 2019 pointed out that the “poster” used for KOTM was actually official concept art found in KOTM’s art book. That concept art had most certainly not been shown to the public or even leaked to it back in 2017, thus the timelines credibility skyrocketed. Along with this, the “poster” for GvK, while obviously early concept art, has both GvK facing each at night in a city.

Finally, the redditor who reposted this timeline a month or two ago brought up something interesting. A fan made poster for Destroy all Monsters would likely have a bunch of classic Toho monsters, or perhaps one big one Legendary wasn’t confirmed to have, such as Destoryah. Instead, the “poster” shown had Godzilla and Kong on one side, facing off against a Skullcrawler and something else (compressed Reddit image so it’s blurry) on the other. They also were in what appeared to be an area with grassy/lush terrain.

I don’t mean to sound like this thing is 100% confirmed legit, but if it’s complete BS, that’s a lot of coincidences that piled up on each other.

Not sure how they could pull this off, but I would like to see a Loch Ness monster film set in the monster verse. I can understand the call for it to end with one more movie, but truthfully it could end with this one.

One could argue that there isn’t a bigger movie they can do than this. These are the most iconic monsters of all time! There are some who have been waiting for this for a lifetime and truthfully It’s really down hill from here,

Spoiler

unless we are talking friendly rematch with Godzilla being mine controlled .. okay, okay... just kidding.

 

[ernesth100]

Itd be a shame for the MV to end with one more film. Here's my own personal mock up wishlist for the continuation. This is Phase 1 end with GvK. We should have one more Phase ending with Destroy All Monsters. At least.

-Godzilla 3
-Kong 2
-A MV Spin-Off
-Destroy All Monsters

Two Phases, four films each. Short a simple series over. Because obviously Godzilla and Kong will always be rebooted. That's the longest I could see this reasonably stretching unless they pull an MCU and put some real elbow grease into the universe.

Just saw the film and loved it. Weezer is pretty much the next Sayaka with how accurate he was

I think that would be a nice addition. Maybe they wouldn’t necessarily FOCUS on telling the public “it’s apart of the MV” but rather have it be its own thing and after it’s out just say it’s canon with the MV. If I were legendary I would definitely do a Kong 2, maybe Godzilla 3 or destroy all monsters. Anything past that then the causals see it as stale

 

[Deck Rickard]

Man, now I’m craving a Loch Ness Monster movie. I became obsessed with that legend as a kid after I went to Busch Gardens for the first time, lol.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Has there ever been a good Loch Ness Monster movie or appearance? Water Horse? Lol

 

[HKpowerup]

For those who have seen the movie and WITHOUT spoilers, do we get a sense of what the world is like given the global devastation in previous movies (i.e. KotM)? Any exposition or scenes about the human and economic cost the world has gone through?

Thx.

Not really. It's implied I believe that Ghidorah messed with the climate. But financially the world is fine.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Interested to see how the reviews go when more are out, I am seeing this anyway but I hope it’s well received for Wingards sake as I like him as a director.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Just watched the film for a 5th time. What a fun, great ride.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

So this seems to be doing well overseas, hopefully that means we get more sequels

Lets go baby!

'Godzilla vs. Kong' Stomps to Pandemic-Best $122M Foreign Start

This movie is shaping to be the pandemic savior for movies.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

I'm not big on Stuckman at all, but I am pretty surprised that he ended up enjoying it considering I know he wasn't really a fan of either Skull Island on KOTM.

Hopefully, this is a sign that more people who didn't enjoy the previous movies do like this one and this franchise can atleast end on somewhat of a highnote.

Of course, I would love for the Monsterverse to continue with more movies, but if this is how it goes out I'll honesty be pretty satisfied with it.

 

[Bubba Gump Jr]

While I would love for the monsterverse to continue, I don’t know if casual audiences will find future films as big of a draw as this one. This film is a big deal because it’s pitting the two most famous giant monsters of all time against each other. I don’t know if audiences will care that much about, say Destroyah, or maybe Biollante (trying to think of big dawg enemies).

I think the only thing that could be as big of a draw would be a Destroy All Monsters movie. Mainly because it would have both Godzilla and Kong in it, which yet again shows to me that the two monsters together are the biggest draw.

I agree! Mainly because Kong brings his own fans with him! We love Kong! And truthfully because he is a Gorilla he’s able to carry a movie. We can identify with his facial expressions and emotions because he is able to emote human emotions and feelings.

Does anyone know the exact time the review embargo is expected to be lifted today 03/29?
