Godzilla’s character arc was literally 1. Wake up 2. Kill monsters 3. Refuse to elaborate 4. Go back to sleep And I fucking love it

Godzilla has to be the most versatile character in fiction. He’s either a grim reminder of mankind’s hubris or a full-on action hero ready to save the planet.

Godzilla really just 1- woke up 2- got a Zenkai Boost 3- one shotted probably the fourth most powerful titan 4- went SSJ Rose 5- didn't do shit for the rest of the movie 6- went to Egypt 7- suplexed Kong 8- almost one shotted the main villain(several times) 9- and then went back to sleep in the Colosseum Truly the GOAT of all monsters

Godzilla literally spent the whole movie powering up to go Super Saiyan Rosé

Japan : Godzilla Minus One Hollywood: Godzilla Plus One

Kong's "acting" was definitely a highlight. It's crazy how much charisma these CGI monsters have.

I like how the Kong and little monkey arc felt like Kratos and Atreus interacting with eachother.

Godzilla busting out a literal suplex was the most hype shit ever

Kong using Mini Kong as a nunchaku is the greatest thing to ever happen in cinematic history

Kong using the baby Kong as a weapon was the funniest shit in the entire movie

Kong is such a likable guy that he could literally use a child like a mace, and that child still took his side.

"Towards the end of the movie I was half expecting for Godzilla to start talking." Oh boy I've got news from 1972 for you.

The improvised kiss scene of kong and godzilla was beautiful work by the actors 10/10

I cried when godzilla turned to Kong and said "This truly is a new empire king"

When Godzilla said “Go on and Kong, King” I about dropped on my knees with emotions

Kong using the child as a club was lit

Once you realize that the MONSTERS are the main characters then you start to appreciate the writing a little bit more.

Can't wait for the next movie, where Kong searches for the infinity stones.

The fact that godzilla is returning to the goofiness of the older japanese movies makes me so happy

One scene not talked about was the bit before skars introduction. When that poor monkey is being bullied and kong helps him up and gives him a warm smile before dealing with the bully. And just kong in general, sticking up for his fellow kongs. Or when skar killed sukos father and kong gets really really angry and starts the fight.

Those 25 minutes with Kong and no dialogue gave major Primal tv show vibes. These movies should just do that from now on.

I loved the emotional scene when Kong found out the bad guy was in the Amazon with his mom researching spiders before she died. Truly a tear-jerker.

Godzilla kill list in this movie : Giant Crustacean in heat. Stole a home from someone you met 2 years ago and killed the owner because Godzilla is Godzilla.

1. It wasn't anti-frostbite serum. It was a healing juice that they said should help with the frost bite. 2. The electric birds thing was explained earlier in the film as an ability they could do in flocks. 3. So they do actually explain them in the movie. Still goofy tho lol

“Atleast in my opinion, which makes it undeniable.” - Charles White

The amount of emotions you can get from MONSTERS that don't even SPEAK. If only someone could convey that to a TV show about a super-soldier with a helmet.

That scene that you mentioned when that random human character comes in with an army of flying monsters was actually setup earlier on. When they first entered Hollow Earth, they flew next to a flock of flying monsters and that random human mentions that he can camouflage as the monsters and blend in, which comes back later. So a pretty nice setup and payoff.

they really gave kong the iron fist of arkus from skylanders

Legendary is having their Showa Phase. Toho is having their 1954 phase back

Your mention of the 25 minute no dialogue sequence made me think, I would unironically love to see a Genndy Tartakovsky Godzilla x Kong movie. What he’s able to accomplish narrative wise in Primal with zero dialogue is impeccable.

When I was in the theater and Kong made friends with the child ape I legit couldn’t stop laughing because they literally looked like Kratos and Atreus but monkey

Godzilla making the colosseum his bed was probably the best part of the movie outside from the actual fighting.

The real plot of the movie: Skar king had too many bitches, so Kong killed him and stole his son as punishment

It got a 70% on the moist meter. You're welcome.

I thought Scar King pointing and laughing at Kong was just an edited meme until I watched the movie and figured out it was a legitimately scene. I died laughing at the part bro! 💀💀

Tiamat could have been a way better fight. Prior to this movie, in the comics Tiamat nearly killed Godzilla and he only lived because there was an air pocket in which he strew her in and had the advantage

Godzilla? Huge

I honestly dont mind godzilla's screentime because hes pretty much serving as a deterrent force whenever other titans get out of hand. I would like another solo film before another godzilla and kong film tho. Also about the gauntlet they already made it clear in GvK that he absolutely cannot survive in cold environments when they entered the Hollow Earth through Antartica so😂

Godzilla was the definition of “on site”😂

Not to mention the powerhouse glove was for the correct hand that got frostbite 😂

7:05 Little does Charlie know Godzilla and Anguirus do in fact talk to each other in english/japanese in Godzilla vs Gigan, but that movie also did have space cockroaches wearing human skins as the villains so nothing too surprising.

I think this monsterverse movie has the best cast out of all of them. The whole movie is such a showa era godzilla movie. Psychics, goofy coincidences, and usually not an in depth plot to focus more on the monsters, which i love because we have minus one at the same time, so you can like whichever one

My whole theater cried tears of happiness when Vin Diesel came out at the end and said “this is what family does for each other”

Imagine finding others of your own kind for the first time in forever and when you do they immediately start beating the crap out of you. Kong can never catch a break! 💀💀

Godzilla with that Suplex from outta nowhere had me in total Shock, that was absolutely Crazy.

Beating the Apes with Suko was a great scene. As was saving the Ape from falling, only to Sparta his ass off the cliff anyway 😂😂😂

The last 20 minutes was just pure awesomeness. The most itself was really good too but the fighting at the end was amazing. And if you've seen it then you that anti gravity part of the fight was awesome and i wanted more of it

I liked when Kong punched one of the great apes and they had the dumbest expression with their tongue out

I actually liked the psychic human subplot, it felt like it was right out of classic 90s Godzilla. Also the powerhouse project sorta makes sense considering Kong is basically humanity’s sole kaiju protector and he’s obviously getting too old to go toe to toe with Godzilla.

That burp at the beginning was a jumpscare

Just remember it's a super wacky story, and it all just fits in nicely like a 90's Saturday cartoon. Such a joy to watch

3:53 ok he said, that should heal up the frostbite. NOT IT WAS AN ANTI-FROSTBITE SERUM.

I hope that the Monsterverse doesn't end here. They should give both Godzilla and King Kong their own movies once again. At least for a while until they team up again.

Watching Godzilla drop kick Kong like an MMA fighter is off the bingo chart

If you’ve ever watched something created by Genndy Tartakovsky, you know that a story does not always have to be told by dialogue alone. It can be told through visuals and the expressions from the characters. I thought they did an amazing job showcasing that during the whole Kong discovering other members of his kind segment.

5:47 tbf they did set it up earlier in the film when they first go in to hollow earth and disguise as one of the bird things and explain their electrical capabilities

I love how Kong is just doing his own shit while Godzilla just walks in from time to time, being the king of monsters.

this movie rlly shows that Godzilla is him. Godzilla just shows up, slaps a big monster and they die, then leaves and does it again.

I don't know what was funnier in this movie, Kong finding out his species is in a forced labor camp, then punching the dude, or Kong trying to tell Godzilla (Who just sprinted here from another country) to chill out before getting slammed into a pyramid, or the two of them charging into hollow earth ready to fuck some shit up. My main gripe (same in GVK to a lesser extent) is that it feels like the scale of them has been lost in translation, as most of the titan scenes are on Hollow Earth where everything is already big, and the pacing of the fights is quicker too, so it feels like there is less physical weight to them.

It wasnt an anti frostbite serum. It was an advanced regeneration or healing serum. Which godzilla like kaiju have and could probably be researched. Also They usually keep titan side projects located next to the outpost of the titan they relate to. In king of the monsters they even hold the muto corpses in godzillas castle bravo location. That place was kongs earth outpost Edit: also this is hardcore a modern showa film. The 60s did this stuff all the time

-1 and the new empire are the perfect examples of both extremes of Godzilla movies. It’s very dark and serious or goofy and ridiculous. It’s fascinating.

My son is 8 and is absolutely obsessed with Godzilla and Kong … we took him to an early showing and he was living his best life telling me the names and background of all these other monsters in it lol

I personally love the fact that Hollywood nowadays is completely embracing the goofy batshit nature of kaiju flicks. I thought this movie was goofy, stupid, and funny asf, but all in a good way. From the cyborg arm, to the one liner shots they give the kaiju, to the premise of it all it’s just awesome.

Godzilla went full goldberg mode when he fought kong 💀💀💀💀 and then kong using suko as a weapon and Doug stealing kongs food was too peak… it’s called gxk the new peakpire for a reason

0:19 "i'm gonna be honest: ØØæAAAAAAA"

My favorite part was when Godzilla tells Kong "it's not your fault!"

This movie was insanely hype. Very little to complain about. I hope they plan on making another

Kong and Godzilla ran a top tier fade, the tag team manhandling was a spectacle to behold

Godzilla x Kong is honestly my favorite of the monsterverse, all the Kaiju had so much personality.

The thing about the stupid human plots, is Godzilla has almost always had mid human plots, so longtime fans such as myself are used to it lol. Take Godzilla vs Gigan for example, the human plot is about a group of people setting out to stop humanoid cockroach aliens from using a Godzilla statue to kill Godzilla. It's fucking dumb and I love the showa era movies for that, and the goofiness of the new monsterverse movies is so reminiscent of that

I actually love every single Godzilla movie I’ve ever seen.

1:50 was the funniest thing I seen in the movie 😂

If you are just here for the moist meter, he gave it 70%

This is the best version of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

This sounds exactly what I wanted! I love serious Godzilla, but the more insane Godzilla stuff is great too.

every time i saw scar king on screen, his body language gave so much emotion. you can imagine the words he's saying and the argument he has with Kong.

Godzilla and Kong were amazing in this movie. Very talented actors.

Being a massive Showa era Godzilla fan I LOVED the cheesiness of it all.😂

You can tell Adam was a fan of the franchise. I saw so many elements from the old Toho showa movies and even heisei and millennium. If he makes a trilogy I have a feeling he’ll focus more on Godzilla. Overall already saw it twice and got tickets for 3 more shows

0:19 "I'm gonna be honest: **burps** " I detect no falsehoods.

Kong was also the star of Godzilla vs Kong so I'm not surprised that continues here. He's the underdog who's much easier to root for than Godzilla, and has the more expressive face

I like to point out some of the cons in the human part that are a bit inaccurate: 1.the project powerhouse was tease in the opening, albeit it was a few dialogue 2.the project powerhouse wasn't really located conveniently near where kong collapse, the human at first investigate the monarch outpost that has been destroyed (this is where the power gloves were store) and then used the heav plane thing to go far to where the plot largely take place(where later this is where kong collapse) so one of the main cast had to use the heav and fly back to the outpost one to grab the glove 3. It was established in the beginning of the scene where they first enter hollow earth that the heav has the ability to camouflage to look like the electric bird monsters flock so the heav could fly with them (because the bright color of the bird monsters are a sign that they are poisonous or in this case electrified to warn predator, there by a perfect shield for heav) so it made sence that the dude return with an flock of bird monsters, attracted them with the camo and the mating call 4. The injection in the power gloves isn't really a convenient forstbite antidote, it was probably some super steroid for kong to give him enough power to used the glove (and cure him from any damage) at least from where im getting after watching it 5.this isn't really a correction but i like the mother daughter subplot for the human part, it ain't perfect but it's sweet compare to the human sub plot of gvk where they traveled across the globe just to pour a drink on a computer (even though I prefer the father son sub plot of kong and suko)

Im fine with Kong getting most of the attention, big G was still present when needed. I also suspect we are getting either "Destroy all Monsters" or "Final Wars" at some point, and Godzilla will be the center of that by far.

Kong using kid kong as nunchucks is funny and fire at the same time.

Godzilla and crazy shit going on are synonymous with each other and dragging Kong along with it is a masterclass in how you make a monsterverse continuity that is both nonsense and very fun

I'm really curious to know what Optimus Prime would do in the hollow earth with a condom and a jar of peanut butter.

Godzilla, a jar of peanut butter, a condom, and "I'm going to HOLLOW EARTH" GOT ME SO BAAAD 🤣😂 7:15

I had a great time, even with the Human side! But OMGG i never noticed how long the Kong scenes with 0 dialogues was. It's sooo Good i was totally immersed

I knew this one wouldn’t top Minus one, but I’m glad it’s still a good one.

The best parts of the movie seem to be described a lot like how the show Primal plays out, and spear & fangs relationship is parallel to kong x godzillas

I watched it in 3D and the effects is so amazed and felt like the guts and blood effects popped literally outside the screen. And the film was AMAZING! Im happy to watch the film in theaters so it can get more recognition and hopefully gets film of the year. 2024 just started and this film is absolutely a gem! Btw i love the retro rave soundtrack. Lmao. And moist critical you explain so much better then what i can say. Lol. Thank you! ❤

This was a fun movie, Saturday morning cartoon levels

the sex scene between godzilla and kong was a spectacle

Kong: The New Empire (ft. Goji)

It felt like I was watching Showa Era Godzilla Films and thats all it needed to be a fun movie about some big kaiju's beating each other to a pulp

I watched it yesterday with my grandma, the look on her face when kong ripped apart the wolf thing was the best part of the movie

I loved this movie for making the Kaijus actual characters (mainly Kong, shimu, and the other apes), more so than any of the other films

Honestly, Godzilla x Kong movies could just be monster-focused with no dialogue and they'd be amazing. Godzilla Minus One was incredible with its human cast though.

Love how zilla went straight into throwing hands, he wasnt in the mood to conversate with kong

I immediately thought, “It was very convenient that the powerhouse glove was the same hand that Kong injured
