We have multiple threads to discuss what you didn't like about Godzilla vs Kong. You've said why you didn't like Godzilla's role in the movie in other threads, and that's fine, but it's not necessary to make a whole thread about it. Drop it man.

Pretty flimsy a*s reason considering there are numerous threads in just the Monsterverse section that could/should easily be part of other threads yet they still exist. In addition, "necessary"? You really want to tell me with a straight face that a lot of the other threads are "necessary"? :roll: Some weird a*s double standards moderating the site....

No it doesn't. Literally just go watch Godzilla vs Kong.

Let me translate

Do what I want and screw anyone else.
Bingo.
I will never understand why people that hate the MV so much only comment in the MV section.
I liked the first two films a lot, and am okay on the third, and mostly just hang on to the dim, fading hope it'll return back to the mode and tone of the entries I like better, than the dumb, poorly written, brain cell killing direction the last film took, which is sadly the direction I expect the next entry to follow so...ugh.

Remarks like this are really unnecessary and uncalled for because you’re basically insulting those of us who love the movie

My apologies, I don't mean to offend anyone, but those are my honest opinions on the film and the direction I'm sure the MV will take following it.

Ummm no, he's insulting the movie itself.

This here exemplifies what's wrong with fandoms today: taking things personally when there's no reason to do so.

Actually what's wrong with fandoms today is focusing on what you hate rather than what you like and enjoy.

How Vakanai (or anyone else) chooses to celebrate or denigrate whatever movie is up to him, provided he does it in a way that doesn't disrespect other people. He didn't say anything about the people who did like or enjoy GvK (myself included, for what it's worth), and he even apologized for his comments after you took offense to them.

It'd be easier to focus on what I enjoyed if there were newer live action films coming out outside of the MonsterVerse, or if they were going in a different direction. Sadly for right now there's nothing new for me to enjoy film wise, and nothing planned that I know of outside of things that are most likely going to ape GvK in the hope of copying that success - and I clearly can't enjoy that. If Toho announced a new live action Godzilla in the works right now, or Legendary announces a complete 180 in the direction of their movies and promises nothing resembling GvK then I'd be talking about that. But as of right now the only Godzilla things that I still enjoy that I could talk about are not really all that recent or too small, so I've kind of said what I wanted to with them.

And whether it's right or wrong, it's still what we fans do - we all complain about that which we did not like in the genre. For me, GvK is just the Godzilla thing I hate the most (truthfully the only Godzilla thing I've ever hated - but boy do I ever hate it).

I don't know if it's trustworthy.
This has some promising implications but overall seems like a generalized report about stuff that is already known more or less and speculations. Idk how trustworthy this is but we shall see.
As a whole def hoping for some new developments regarding the Kong series or any sequel announcement.

I am guessing if they were to make two more Kong films, they will be called Kong : Hollow Earth and Kong : The Eighth Wonder respectively.

I think it should remain a tetralogy.

The Eight Wonder wouldn't really make sense in this context. Godzilla should be the Eighth Wonder

Nothing wrong with a callback to the past.
