So, did we forget that Godzilla did the whole cinematic universe thing first?

Godzilla has had tons of crossovers with other Kaiju and monsters (such as King Kong) over the years

that's kind of how all the films started as, Godzilla, Mothra, and Rodan were all their own IPs before coming together for their crossover.

Their is a whole image that explains all of the non-godzilla films and how they came together, I'll have to find it.

Universal Monsters is actually the first ever "Cinematic Universe".

Complete failure on the part of studios to understand why Marvel's own world has worked so well.

I was referring to that awful vampire movie a couple years back with Luke Evans, trying to act as a gateway to a Universal Monsters universe through a post-credits scene.

I just looked it up. Holy sh*t , it's the f*cking Mummy!

Were they going for a team up between all the monsters later down the line?

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I'd be shocked if their universe ever gets that far.
But yeah, I guess there was gonna be a monster Avengers movie somewhere down the line.

isn't "The Mummy" suppose to be a re-attempt at the cinematic universe?

Indeed it is.

Some things are products of their time and the Universal Monsters as iconic as they are just don't really work as movies anymore. We'll say the same thing about superheroes in the future. Same with a Kaiju cinematic universe, it happened during the boom, but now they want to force it and it doesn't work like that. It worked for Marvel but yeah it's all been handled wrong. I love continuity and stuff that connects but I'm not confident all these "cinematic universes" are going to work out.

I tend to bash Marvel a lot but I think Marvel is great and made it work, I'm just not a fan of all their decisions or their fanboys. Other "cinematic" universes need to be made more subtly instead of in your face, the only other franchise doing it correctly is Star Wars even if I'm not fond of all their spin-offs.

Any indication if the movie is going to be live-action or animated?

I do have to say that, Hanna-Barbara does seem to be one of the more logical ideas for a cinematic universe than others, since crossovers are already part of the brand. Case in point, Blue Falcon and Scooby-Doo frequently cross over, there was a comic that had the Mystery, Inc. traveling through the HB lineup thanks to a time machine, etc.

It's gonna be animated according to the latest reports I've seen.
