[@md.saunders6625]

Amazing recap!

[@SToad]

Thank you so much for this recap! Got tickets for tomorrow and couldn't re-watch everything, just have Monarch in my head because of so recent. Funny enough this is the first video I've ever watched below 1.0x speed! I usually do 1.25 or 1.5x! 😂

[@justbuawan6654]

Great recap, thanks. I’ve seen all the films and the Monarch tv series, but the timeline and stories do get confusing thinking about them, but this video laid it out very nicely, and chronically to boot.

[@OhHeyTrevorFlowers]

"Save. Martha." 😂

[@JEMurl]

Why’d you say that name!?

[@robertmcmath910]

That was the best multigenerational condensed mega movie tv show thrill ride I've experienced. Keep it up.

[@dit100]

The edits on this were so good today. I laughed so hard at all the inserted parts. Great job.

[@paulorodriguez3798]

Been looking for a quick summary of this thanks Ryan

[@isaiasizquierdo3369]

Epic Video. Ryan the King of RECAPS

[@mploof]

Notice that the x in GxK stands for Mothra. She stands between Godzilla and Kong after the Eqypt fight and her wings form an X...Clever girl.

[@mcw1907]

"SAVE... MOTHRA!" Calling it now.

[@Kidmonger]

“King Kong ain’t got s**t on me.”😂😂😂

[@PassiveAgressive319]

Sarah Halley Finn casts for Legendary Pictures and Marvel, so makes sense we have Captain Marvel, Loki, Nick Fury, Casey and Dr Doom in Skull Island

[@RyanHaney55]

Nice recap. I'm glad you included the shows on that streaming service I don't have. Nice use of Tommy Boy and the 1998 Godzilla music. I think John Walker might be one of Ego's progeny.

[@pratyushpadhy29]

Thanks for the recap.

[@danielhughes5932]

17:12 RIP Michael k Williams. Man that scene solidified the wire as one of my favorite shows of all time

[@tshepomodau1345]

Sony and Dc could learn a lot from this franchise. Is so good , well written and they actually made us care for these movies👌🔥

[@Collin_Beatz]

I love the monsterverse too, but I do wish they gave us leads, like dates, character connection AND development.

[@pacman_17]

Thanks for doing these full series recaps.

[@lexsellsmerch3512]

A great recap to keep all the important details fresh! Thank you for always doing these SC! Love you guys. Can’t wait to see what’s next in the MonsterVerse 😤

[@ianerz009]

Cleanest and most clear recap I have ever watched. Also, the inserted pun made it even better lol

[@matt_rector_media]

That Tommy Boy edit is perfect.

[@auronapi]

9:58 You called Dr Serizawa, Dr. Suzuki

[@portercovington7341]

Noticed that as well, maybe he has insider knowledge lol

[@ciprianpopa2819]

Dr Suzuki is the one who invents the Gamma radiation machine in the '50s, the same one used by Hiroshi Randa in the Monarch series

[@billscarnage]

@@ciprianpopa2819Right, but they did mix it up in this instance.

[@tylersheehan6700]

Hands down, best recap of multiple movies and shows that I have ever seen. Great job!

[@bethb4432]

I can’t believe not one joke about Quicksilver and Wanda getting it on.

[@lorenzo_1998]

Man this video is so good. Very useful and fun to watch. My congrats to the narrator and to the ScreenCrush team

[@phatkiddre]

Fantastic recap! I couldn't keep up with Monarch but you really made all the connections!

[@mikedroz2301]

Dear Screen Crush, These videos have been a big part of my life. I don’t see my son but every other weekend and half the holidays. We use these videos to get caught up with the important details before we see the new films. Two days ago we did Apes. Today it’s this. Thank you! PS We love Doug 🤣

[@agiolagon]

Casey (Eugene Cordero) of Loki series was also in Kong - Skull Island.. Eugene is of Filipino descent.. and I'm from the Philippines 🇵🇭 Meanwhile, twins Wanda and Quicksilver were in Godzilla (2014)..

[@scarfaceReaper]

Almost the whole cast from the series is missing in the last 2 movies

[@malinborn]

The only comment that I would like to know for sure, and I guess it’s just been explained as age… Is Kongs drastic change in size between Kong skull Island and Godzilla versus Kong. In the first movie Kong was huge. Don’t give me wrong I mean it was massive but in the second movie you can see he’s got like the beard and the gray hair and all of that and it’s been 30 or 40 years so it’s obviously much more mature but I would not have expected him to grow so massively as to be the size of Godzilla, who is the size of a skyscraper. Loved this video. Great recap. My son and I are going to have to watch everything again as we typically do when a new movie comes out but we probably have to throw in some specific room as well for laughs.

[@scarfaceReaper]

Glad im not alone, i always thought why is kong so big and his not that old either not to mention he were not near Hollow energy to grow faster

[@michaeldemarco9950]

You know, Lee Shaw left the Hollow Earth without the sphere in 1982, so there’s no proof he died in 2017.

[@bobbymarried2024]

Perfect breakdown ty SC

[@jdogg0316]

I love the Denis Leary pull! Nice work!

[@gojulas2009]

12:27 The part where godzilla merges out of the sand in algeria, that is easter egg that pays a homage to the mothra vs godzilla 1964 film where godzilla was resting undergound of a dry bay and he comes out of the barren sand. I think thats one eatser egg you may have missed in your eatser egg monarch legacy video

[@dragonmaster613]

The thumbnail had me believing this was going to recap the ENTIRE history of Godzilla/Kong starting with their first ever movies.😂

[@dacrookedi]

Me too

[@Jsh_Jsn]

It’s the MonsterVerse. (American Films).

[@micheal.j3331]

Got my tickets already! Going on Easter Sunday. Alone 🥲

[@wingman-1977]

Nothing wrong with that. Don’t feel bad, I used to go alone all the time.

[@bawintermage8351]

Let's All go, but not on Resurrection Sunday. Go Go Gojira

[@ElysiaBrenner]

I prefer to go alone, because my friends can totally take the wind out of my sails after a film like this with too much critique. 😆 (Got my ticket for Thurs!)

[@mcclanesjolund4813]

Nothing wrong with seeing movies alone! I hope you have a great time!

[@marius3881]

I love going to movies on my own

[@theandroids]

Have to give them props for creating a MCU like universe.

[@petd3321]

Superb video summary of the monsterverse!!

[@itschloescorner]

I really enjoyed this recap! We just watched Kong Vs. Godzilla The New Empire and I needed to fill in all the gaps. And this helped a lot

[@ArchGeek]

9:58 …Dr. Suzuki? That’s Dr. Serizawa, put some respect on his name! Can’t believe you got the two Asian doctors confused…

[@MyMiniMovieMagic]

Got our tickets for IMAX in SF the day they dropped - absolutely no better experience than the Metreon. The Dark Knight, Rogue One and Godzilla vs Kong are just some of the movies that were must watch here and got taken to the next level on that 80' x 100' screen.

Been waiting for SC to release this video.

[@Senpaii4ever]

just saw it with my fam! my son was on the edge of his seat! the monster throw downs were AWESOMEEEE

[@THEMikeAguirre]

"King Kong ain't got shit on me!!" Perfect drop!!! 😂

[@onetallpheeesh]

You cant do a Pacific rim vs Godzilla fight movie because Godzilla would destroy them, and I think it's best for the reputation of the Pacific Rim legacy to stay away from the God King himself

[@sarawelling5271]

The device tested on the TV show is identified as Castle Bravo. It's obviously not. It doesn't look anything like it. However, in a very real sense that test was Godzilla in that its excessive yield and subsequent contamination of the Daigo Fukuryu Maru is the inspiration for the opening of the Japanese version of Gojira 1954, i.e., the flash in the water.

[@voxxy85]

Wow this video was very informative. Now I can rewatch all the movies and everything will make sense.

[@ciprianpopa2819]

@screencrush where are the events from the anime series Skull Island, set in the '90s?😅

[@omegaty6]

Saw it last night at the QLD early screening, it was very fun! Lots of monster action and minimal human screen time

[@boa2143658709]

I like how you explained it, I thought it was a plot hole that in the movie when they go to hollow earth there's no time difference when they come back but in the show there is, I didn't think about them going to separate areas of the hollow earth.

[@Steubert]

Just watched it on Max and it was pretty great. I didn’t realize that the last 3 movies tied so closely with it.

[@sequoialuceroo1574]

My late older brother knew about all the storylines and I knew somewhat but me and my family wanted to go see the new movie because of him so thanks for this video so now I know way more depth!

[@shanegibson8670]

I love the nod to the 2000 version with the music it’s still my favorite Godzilla

[@nivlheim09c97]

It would be insane if they have a hidden/secret/unannounced crossover in future films. Like one will make a cameo at the final battle. or in a post credit scene.

[@JKo96-nc]

Always a great video. And, of course, Doug ❤

[@aemilialhalley9145]

Thanks for this. This story, all in one, is so truly stupid and convoluted. Heading out now to watch the new one! :)

can you do a video explaining how godzilla walks on water?

[@Peritestes]

What's up with Kong's Transformers powerglove?

[@synistersydofficial]

Lol I like that 🤘 But nah, it’s something humans created to assist Kong- like a crutch- after the rampaging primate injures his hand. This happens early in the film, or it happens after his hand suffers severe frostbite after facing the Ice Godzilla, Shimu.

[@erikagholston6610]

Great recap.

[@josesol2186]

Wow super epic video loved the memes😂

[@gojulas2009]

Will you get around doing any easter egg or video on godzilla minus one when it comes out on home media?

[@silentfox139]

This is more elaborate than I expected

[@kingnicer54]

You Forgot to mention the Kong Skull Island Animated Series on Netflix. Might be small Easter eggs there but I think it’s mostly just an up date on where Kong was between 1972 and 2015.

[@RdnFikri]

Literally forgot everything in GvK. But at least I still remember Monarc Legacy series which I hope it would help.

[@Luring_Leon]

Does anyone else find it funny that kong skull island is the best out of the monsterverse movies

[@jedirayden]

Better cast? More of an actual plot than the later films, which all pretty much boil down to a lot of interesting albeit "irrelevant" exposition about the history and backstory of the monsters involved, while we wait for the inevitable monster showdown at the end? Basically what I'm saying is it actually makes perfect sense. It's hard to be invested in a movie that boils down to a showdown between creatures that, except for Kong, seem to have no character/"personality" to them, regardless of how much time the films invest in trying to build a character for them. In Kong: Skull Island, the human cast is at the center of the events and it's their story as much as it's Kong's. In all the other films, the human cast is more or less just there to move the "plot" forward with the aforementioned exposition.

[@Luring_Leon]

@@jedirayden what I’m saying all the movies are about Godzilla and the one that isn’t is actually really good
