I think it was a cleverly done fan mashup edit of the new Godzilla-verse Godzilla vs the Shin Godzilla.

That’s fan made

Also first two episodes into Godzilla’s Singular Point. Interesting so far.

Interesting metrics.

So they bought out China's stake in producing the movie, removing China from all profits? But "cutting Legendary out from any revenue or profit on the film" still doesn't mean WB gets all of the profits overseas, as theaters aren't going to be showing the movie for free, whether it's here, China, or anywhere else.

Finally got around to reading the two Godzilla vs Kong comics.

Godzilla Dominion- this one was unique, as no humans appears in this comic aside from one panel. The comic is just about Godzilla looking for a place to rest but has to fight other monsters. Only real info we find out was Godzilla was driven off of Skull island by one of Kong’s species long, long time ago. Luckily nothing that needed to be in the film.

Kingdom Kong. Sadly can’t say as much. This story definitely felt like the Kong movie we needed. Clearly we knew that the contract with Toho basically rushed out GVK so that we lost the second Kong movie. In this story Kong fights a monster that was the cause for the storm that destroyed the island’s entrance to Hollow earth and the islanders.

Watched this, all the monster fights was really well done and entertaining to watch. Great CG and action. And I liked that Kong was more sympathetic and the "good guy" of the film.

But like most of these films, all the human characters are uninteresting and everytime the scene cuts to them I get bored. In all these monster movies they struggle to make the human characters compelling, and yeah, people don't watch these movies for the humans so it doesn't really matter, but still it's a 2 hour movie with a lot of humans.

This is another one of those movies where I'll rewatch it for the monster fights but skip 90% of the human scenes next time.

For the record I really liked Kong and Skull Island, and the 2005 King Kong movie.

I thought it was interesting how the human characters represented a faction. "Side Kong" and "Side Godzilla".

The sequel is titled "Godzilla vs Kong: The New Empire"

Notice that it’s now “Godzilla X Kong” and not “Godzilla VS Kong”?

Guess they’re buddies now?

What their babies gonna be: Kongzllas or Godkongs?
Latter sounds better.

A Kong-type kaiju with Godzilla's atomic powers would be quite an interesting addition to the monster-verse.

I am sure in 50+ years of Kaijus there is already some kind of a thing like this. Japanese turn everything into monsters - from toasters to trucks, I am sure giant ape with an atomic breath is a no brainer. I'd even bet it might couple of additional powers, like infrared vision or underwater breathing.

Now we need a Godzilla/Kong Robo.

[Allio]

So the first of the two Monsterverse tv shows came out. Skull island was fine. Nothing really too extraordinary. Out of all the king cartoons, it’s probably the best, but that isn’t a high bar.

Ye didn’t ya see the knuckle bump at the end of the last film?

[Andrew NDB]

So basically it'll just be Godzilla vs. Kong except without them fighting each other, and with some new evil Kong to fight instead of Mechagodzilla? Does that sound about right?

In October, Godzilla and Kong will be pulled into the DC universe for a crossover

For Godzilla’s birthday every year, Toho has been doing some shorts to celebrate. This year we get two featuring the return of Megalon and Jet Jaguar.
