The scene where Godzilla was sleeping in the colosseum was inspired by the producers cat and the reason why Godzilla likes the colosseum is because it reminds him of his old home, Atlantis from Godzilla king of the monsters.

[@ponhrithsambo5143]

Yessir

[@newmanproductionentertainm5127]

It was actually the directors cat.

Neel making all the video game references actually made me see GxK in a new light. Skar King's kingdom = Hollow Earth DLC Kong = Casual gamer - Goes in through the story mode - Was severely underleveled for the boss and got his ass handed to him. - Called his hardcore gamer buddy to help Godzilla = Hardcore gamer - Looks up Meta strats and builds. - Goes on sidequest to acquire new build. - No diffs boss because overleveled.

[@calmsquirrel7124]

The nerf to godzillas aim whenever he’s fighting an important ape like kong or scar king is funny. He can easily hit tiny targets like aircraft and and stuff like when he attacked Florida yet he’s got the slowest and or worst aim whenever he’s fighting kong and scar king

[@geraldthegoose1685]

I can probably explain why his aim is nerf when fighting apes 1. They are agile 2. I would assume that the energy and blowback of his atomic breath make it harder to aim since it kinda looks like the breath somewhat curves a bit when he moves his head. I think the reason why its more noticeable is because when he used his breath on the MUTO and ghidorah he is close to them and they also aren't really agile so that makes it easier but for the planes and jets idk

[@calmsquirrel7124]

@@geraldthegoose1685 yea I can see king and scar king dodging more cause they’re fast I just think it’s funny cause it’s obviously written so that he struggles to hit them more than he should. No problem with it tho

@@calmsquirrel7124 yeah that too lol which kinda sucks but we all know why they written it that way. I also kinda find it funny because since he can't hit planes he just resorts to his atomic pulse aoe lmao

It’s not that he’s nerfed it’s just that they aren’t dumb lol. They are smart enough and agile enough to dodge that we’ve seen it in GVK and now GXK. Hell we’ve ever seen Ghidorah doge it in KOTM so it’s not just them.

[@calmsquirrel7124]

@@taigakagami8354 Godzilla shot at ghidorahs heads, which was never gonna hit. You can see in the scene where he attacks Florida he can easily hit small aircraft and move his beam quickly but when he’s fighting king and scar king his beam nicely relatively slowly (by slowly I mean the direction he aims in) I can understand them dodging more than other titans but Godzilla could definitely aim better than he does when he’s fighting them

[@epicexplorer2366]

At the end the ape wasn’t the one who was thrown in lava it was the one who dropped the rock and was being abused until Kong stepped in and knocked out the enforcer

Ah yes, the Kong movie with a sprinkle of Godzilla, I really loved this movie, Godzilla in the coliseum, and Kong only needing to say in a deep voice "Boy", both the movie and the memes have a special place in my rotting heart

[@metalhead2667]

I think the reason Godzilla had such an easy time navigating around the low/zero gravity was because it was essentially like swimming- just without the water. In water, he is able to control his own direction and change his pace at will. that being said, Godzilla already has experience with lunging and shit like that- so it was effective like swimming and maneuvering around underwater, only without

[@erikolson4148]

2:03 According to the funny and heartwarming sections of TV Tropes, Kong's reaction to Doug stealing his food from him is one of annoyance rather than aggression, suggesting that this is a regular occurrence, and it's implied that he (Kong) has grown at least *_a little bit_* fond of the mischievous creature enough to let him take some of his food 🤔🤷‍♂️🤗😁😉👍😌.

[@Phantom_373]

17:36 Fun fact about Tiamat which isn't very well known but She has the power to mimic human voices. There's a lot of very subtle details in the movie which really prove Shimo is insanely strong even though she was trying to hold herself back. Such as how she could easily tank Godzilla's atomic blast without being hurt much or how she tossed Godzilla with one hand.

[@erikolson4148]

Some of the Great Apes have individual names: according to TV Tropes, according to the novel, the one with the blind right eye 👁 is fittingly called "One-Eye" and is apparently one of Skar King's children alongside Suko and other infants 🤔😓. The one that Kong tries to save from falling off the cliff but ends up having to kick him off the cliff for real in self-defense because he was a sorry little ingrate who still attempted to kill Kong after he had just saved his life 😠😡🙄😒🤨, his name was Stone Fist 👊 ✊️ 🤛 🤜. Another one of the initial attackers along with One-Eye and Stone Fist was called Catcher. Another one of Skar King's goons, the one crushed by Kong's giant swinging stone trap was apparently called Knob. The ape who was Suko's caretaker whom Skar King brutally murdered in front of Suko and Kong, his name was Gnarled Finger, and while "friend" might be going a bit far, the novelization reveals that, prior to meeting Kong, Gnarled Finger was the only Great Ape to treat Suko with any measure of kindness by letting him eat the scraps of his meals and shielding 🛡 him from being attacked by the other apes 🥺😣😔. And the Great Ape slave that Kong helps up and beats up the bully abusing him, while not named in the movie, was named "Boots" by the movie's vfx animators 🤔😉.

I love the natural progression of the bond between Kong and Suko. Even with that "I'll beat a motherfucker with another motherfucker" moment. And the fact that Jia was prophesized as a hero who can rouse Mothra from her slumber is amazing, same with her meeting other members of her tribe. Also, I not only love the "Aw, shut up" punch on the ape annoyingly running his mouth a few seconds before Kong met Skar King, but the part where Kong lobs a rock and creams the one ape in the head. 😆🤣 Fun fact: Dan Stevens also played The Beast in the remake of Beauty And The Beast.

[@Alice_Haukea]

So part of why Godzilla was powering up was because he knew he'd be fighting other titans before Scar King even. The novel talks about this in greater detail but Godzilla killing Scylla and Tiamat was not random or cruel. In the novel/comic previously, Scylla had been feeding on power plants in an effort to evolve enough to take the role of alpha. They fought then and Godzilla won and Scylla backed off and went into standby mode. But here in this movie, she's at it again. So by this point, Godzilla decides to just kill her for disobeying again. Similar situation with Tiamat. The only difference this time is that Godzilla wasn't specifically trying to kill her. He wanted that lair and she happened to be there. And instead of respecting the Alpha, she thought she could kill him and chose to fight. Like Scylla, since the two of them had fought before, this time Godzilla was not going to let it slide.

[@KaoretheHalfDemon]

It sounds more like Godzilla was being overwhelmed by Skar Kings army rather than just Skar King. Also so far as I could tell Kong was just getting started in his first fight against Skar King and might have been able to win if not for Shimo.
