It wouldn't surprise me if there was more foreshadowing in an early edit, that was cut to save on run time.

Finally I watched last Godzilla film, and happily me and my wife had a very empty theater, so we enjoyed ourselves the film (in this kind of films we like to be mean with the script but to awe and scream to the best moments).

Yeah, I scream like a kid when I saw Mothra coming back and putting and end to the fight in Egypt...

Good figths, I think the increase of characters and environments in the Monsterverse is great while, apart from the Iwis (that are working like the Shobijin in the original Godzilla films), the biggest problem is the human characters, that apart from some interesting conflicts Monarch will have with the countries governments, the individual stories are very poor...

Not sure what is thought for a sequel? Humanity as the main villain again trying to attack the Titans? A new monster?... that mosquito bitting hippie Matthew Crawley getting mutated by his blood? A colossal version of Planet of the Apes?

I mean the next step up is clearly going to be Godzilla and Kong leading an army of Kaiju against an Alien Invasion it's what Serial Escalation at this scale will inevitably bring.

After that I guess you gotta Storm the Gates of Heaven.

This is why I think it'd be a good chance to use Bagan. It'd finally have a chance to be a movie Big Bad instead of being relegated to an SNES game due to the movies it was going to debut in being cancelled.

Bagan's also a suitably powerful Kaiju for the task, since the reason it's so powerful is because the alien invaders using it further upgraded it with the genetic material of Godzilla and King Ghidorah. Bagan's a kaiju that has the power of both The Hero (as much as Godzilla counts as a hero anyway) and the hero's Arch-Enemy.

And, probably, to have the opportunity to see Godzilla bringing a baby... but.. what version?... the Minilla from the 70s Toho films? or Godzooky from the American animations?...

Godzilla Jr from the Heisei era thanks.

Plus Godzilla and Kong getting into fights over who's the better stepdad.

Godzilla could point out how Kong used Suko as a Weapon that one time. tongue

In all fairness, Godzilla would probably do something similar if a juvenile of his race tried to attack him.

If Suko didn't want to be a weapon then he shouldn't have been such an effective one.

The Editing Room has abridged the script.

Sadly, they refer to Skar King as Cranky Kong instead of Lanky Kong.

Me watching the scene from "Godzilla vs. Kong" where Kong fixes his dislocated shoulder by slamming it against a building...can that really happen IRL instead of waiting days for mine to heal? (not that there's anything wrong, just in the off-chance I dislocate mine in the future)

Uuhhh please ask licensed medical professionals for any health related advice. None of us are capable of giving you medical advice regarding any dislocated limbs as this is a Godzilla forum.

That said, King Kong is King Kong. I think he has different rules than humans.

I still marvel at that scene with the replaceable tooth.

[up][up][up] That's not how you manipulate a joint, but, hey, if you wanna get disability...

Pretty sure that's just a Lethal Weapon reference, since there was also a blatant Die Hard one in Kong jumping off the carrier.

Kong can do that since he has some degree of regeneration, a dislocated shoulder ain't fixable by regenerating but for him it's as simple as pushing it into place
