How can you say they didn’t learn their lesson about the human characters? There’s like 60 minutes of monsters in this film, more than any MonsterVerse film. Theres 10 whole minutes of nothing but monsters doing their thing. It’s a huge step up in how they represent the titans as characters. I had a blast with it.

[@NeverQuit87]

Trash

[@evangingerson1271]

I agree. I think they just focus so much on the human parts it seems longer to them.

[@tokuwriter2872]

They mean GOOD human writing, Dangerville. You can still have something be focused on the monster fights and still have a good and interesting story that complements the fight scenes; and that doesn’t just mean good visual storytelling with Kaiju for 60 minutes.

[@SuperDenizen]

What should REALLY happen is when Godzilla goes to power up, the movie should just have cut to the human characters explaining exposition for 1 hour. Then 15min of Godzilla waking up +ending. /sarcasm

[@linusah]

They way the characters are written usually feels like a self-important insert. It's the context that the human characters on screen are so special and it's so important that THEY succeed or survive 🎉 meanwhile mass murder is happening in the background.

[@Eva01-jy2qu7pu9r]

This movie basically took the showa era and pretty much slammed it into the modern age lol. Its ridiculous and over the top but the monster action is so freaking amazing that its hard not to get wrapped up in the insanity. You can tell the creators just had fun with the film and thats what matters most to me

[@mr.l5783]

I definitely disagree with Joe where he says they haven’t learned their lesson and aren’t focusing on the monsters. This whole movie revolves around Kong and the ape tribe, and there are plenty of scenes with them being the focus. We got more narrative scenes with the monsters on screen than we’ve ever had before in the franchise. At least to me.

[@Eva01-jy2qu7pu9r]

@@mr.l5783 Yeah the ape tribe was awesome. That whole scene shows the creators are listening and do want to do that movie if given the chance.

[@DukesFinalBoss]

Yeah that’s also its biggest flaw tho Yes, we want less human talking scenes, great! But taking humans out of the picture almost entirely (EX: most of the movie not having society or big buildings in the background of fights) Completely ruins the scale. While I loved the Skar King scenes in hollow earth , they might as well have been normal sized monkeys fighting each other So yes, less human pointless cringe one liners is great!

[@HalfDemonInuyasha]

@@gertjanvandamme2068 Not exactly jumping the shark. During that time period in the 60s, comic book superheroes were really popular, so Godzilla was essentially changed from a short-lived anti-hero to a superhero for kids to be able to enjoy (this is especially evident in "All Monsters Attack" / "Godzilla's Revenge"). He was basically kaiju Superman and other heroes with how he is sometimes able to pull out new abilities that are convenient (or at least cool-looking, if sometimes silly) for defeating the opponent and saving the day (then subsequently rarely, if ever using those same abilities again, even if it would've been helpful, lol).

[@HalfDemonInuyasha]

Honestly, I *don't* want Destoroyah in the Monsterverse largely because it would lack any of the meaningful impact and symbolism like the Heisei one had by bringing things full circle with a Godzilla death. I'd rather they use something like the still-unused Bagan ("Super Godzilla" version) or something as a really big threat.

I will say one thing. So the psychic girl is a reference back to an old Godzilla movie where there was a whole tribe that was psychic and can communicate telepathically. So if you're a big fan that is kind of cool they're trying to bring that back I just don't think they executed right

Totally agree!! I can’t believe that’s a complaint from them?? I felt like there was 85/90% monster action out of the movie??

[@rickylaredo4725]

It is best to turn your brain off because yeah. It's nothing like Godzilla Minus One. Just view Godzilla x Kong The New Empire as another Monsterverse film and as a Showa film, which that's how I view it.

[@wardo8150]

This is the only movie where godzilla isn't a loser. In 2014 he gets his ass whooped by the two mutos and Aaron taylor Johnson distracts the mutos by blowing up their nest. In King of the Monsters he gets two assists. Ken Watanabe revives him by setting of that nuke and later Mothra powers him up so he can beat Ghidorah. And in Godzilla vs Kong he needed to work together with Kong to win the day.

[@porungadaddy9053]

Those Muto's must be like roaches of the monsterverse to Godzilla, in the 2014 movie, perhaps Godzilla KNOWS he is THE remaining titan on earth that can handle Mutos, *every last one of them* with Godzilla's "battle senses" . Godzilla maybe didn't want newly hatched Muto's running around stealing all our dangerous radioactive material supplies so he let Aaron Taylor step in and blow the nest to hell. I guess we can call it his "more rational mind" working there. I feel that his strategy against the MUTO's just seem so uncomplicated, we know he wins but it's NOT pretty (Aaron Taylor dead). No titan allies coming to back up the King of all monsters but meh, it is what it is. No real tools for Godzilla to rely on to take on the Muto's with. So it's all up to his fists. (Claws, fangs and atomic breath). In King of the Monsters, I still agree with those points but I would like to point out that Godzilla made a direct journey straight to the freaking arctic as Ghidorah was being broken out of his iceberg just to run the fade when.. *Ghidorah just flew the fk away.* Like *bruh* Look at those wings. Those wings are purely for cosmetics. *No shot those things flying with that body* !!! 🤣🤣. Godzilla Vs Kong: Mecha Godzilla was just seriously frickin over powered. I'm not complaining I'm thinkin about how Mecha Godzilla made the King of all monsters look like a dumpy chump, like.. danm I just wanted to see Godzilla fighting Kong. I wanted to have more kaijus, old and new, and that's what I got. (edited: spelling)

[@briandecarlo1847]

In 2014, there were 2 mutos attacking at once, Kong was getting thrown around by 1 giant skull Crawler. Kong did get help also in these movies. In skull Island, while he was wrapped in the chains that are attached to the boats. The humans were shooting at the Giant SkullCrawler to distract it so Kong can get free. I'm GvK, Godzilla was dragging Kong down into the depths and to save kong, they use Depth Bombs. Then, they had to save Kong again when he was being smothered by the warbat's wing. Now, in this movie, the humans give Kong the beast glove because of the frost bite. So he can fight. That is 4 times Kong needed help from the humans

I'm all for having two different Godzilla universes because it's clear that the Legendary Universe is for kids and gives homage to the later Showa era of the late 60s and 70s. Godzilla Minus One is for the OG Godzilla fans who loved the original 1954. I'm just happy that kids are able to experience Godzilla on the big screen.

[@WowitsPIKOO]

Idk why so many of you guys keep saying they keep focusing on the human characters when... they don't in this movie? Like, its quite literally, focus on the monsters. Hell, this has the lowest human screen time in the entire monsterverse films. Yeah, literally. It only has like 35- 40 minutes of humans in it, most of it is Kong and the Titans. You guys whine WAYYY too much and focus in the annoying stuff so much you make them seem much long when actuality they are much short than what they've appeared to be Fuck it, i would agrue the humans are bettter than what they were in GvK. I'm not expecting everyone to like this film. It's very clear on who is exactly the target audience for this film. It's a film not to take too serious and the film knows it. Even then, Kongs story is very intriguing and he's basically the main character

[@Uldihaa]

I have to ask how many Godzilla movies have y'all actually watched? The majority of the original Japanese movies were heavily human-focused right from the start. Gojira was originally the embodiment of man-made disasters and was an antagonist to the human characters. He would eventually evolve into a protagonist role in the 'Godzilla/Gojira vs [Y]' type movies in the 60s onwards. Those movies had more monster screentime, but the primary POV was still mostly the human characters. Then there was a revival and return to his antagonist role in "Return of Godzilla" in 1984. He wouldn't be a protagonist again until the mid-90s. Then came "Shin Godzilla", that made him an antagonist again. I think this is a case of misremembering/false memories. Or maybe y'all are confusing the movies with that animated Godzilla show from late 70s early 80s.
