Remember when Matthew Broderick headlined a Godzilla movie with a soundtrack that featured Puff Daddy, Jamiroquai, Green Day, and Ben Folds?

The 90s were weird.
That was my favorite movie growing up, now I'm afraid to watch it based on the reputation it has.
It's reputation is well-earned. That's not a Godzilla movie, it's a giant iguana movie. "Godzilla" never roars as one would expect, never unleashes nuclear fire breath on anything, and generally looks like Jay Leno with scales. Then there's that terrible Aliens ripoff inside Madison Square Garden.

That movie is one of the most legitimate big-time disappointments that I've ever seen.


And the baby zillas looked exactly like the JP raptors.

Without first reading every other post in this thread, is anybody else confused by the constantly shifting scale of King Kong in the movies? He shouldn't be anywhere near as big as GZ. GZ is big enough to kick high rise buildings over with his feet. How many times have we seen the guy in the rubber GZ suit stomping downtown Tokyo flat? On the other hand, Kong is small enough that he could fall to his death from a high rise in NYC.

His size inconsistency in Skull Island (which I loved) was hilarious. They straight up made him whatever size was dramatically appropriate in every scene.

I think GZ and Kong end up fighting a mutual enemy, ie Batman v Superman minus the Martha reference (unless they go with Mothra instead here). My bet is whatever is making GZ attack people is the same tech that they used in KOM to draw GZ to KG in Boston. There has to be something with that KG head that was found.

Either way, its Kaiju fighting each other. Let them fight and hand me the popcorn!
I will pay $1,000 for a ticket if Godzilla has Kong pinned down and is about to incinerate him and Kong yells "MOTHRA! SAVE MOTHRA!" and Godzilla freaks out and has a flashback to KOM and Mothra helping him out.

YES. I commented on this back in those movie threads. My number 1 question about this finale movie was how they were going to address that. Obviously, they basically just scaled Kong up to meet Godzilla's size but he was anywhere from 30 feet to 100 feet in that last movie depending on the scene.

Just ridiculous.

I also loved how the number of helicopters arriving at the island just increased and increased so Kong could keep destroying them.

I wanna go watch Kong now.

Which proves that people overly concerned about accuracy and stupid minor issues in action/adventure films continue miss the point.

Was Kong's scale convenient in the film? Yup. Were we ever quite clear how many helicopters, troops, etc. there were? Probably not.

Does any of that affect that the film was a blast to watch and really entertaining? Not in the least.

No, but coming away from that movie it would not make any sense to make them fight because Kong would get destroyed by Godzilla if they kept his size to how it was mostly portrayed in that movie which was on the smaller end. I realize this is a pointless argument about fiction. Lol.

Regardless, there is no way they don't team up by the end of this movie to fight a third monster. There are too many fans of both characters.

I also noticed that, 50 years after the first encounter with a monster, pilots have still not learned to fly at higher altitudes.

Probably irrelevant when Kong can spontaneously grow by 100 feet on a whim.

Been there, done that (well, kinda)

Godzilla versus the Smog Monster was the first Godzilla movie I saw in a theater. I was 5. I remember that movie scaring the crap out of me.

What this movie really needs is a souped-up 2000s version of Jet Jaguar.

Meh, as others have pointed out, in Kong they said he was still growing. Obviously in preparation for this movie.

Kong just found some leftover green ooze from the TMNT.

Going way back to when I was probably around 5 years old, my dad and I had a running argument over who won in the original King Kong versus Godzilla movie. After all that destruction, you have these two fall into the ocean - and you never see Godzilla again, but what you do see is Kong swimming away. Might as well have been a yellow streak on his back, damn coward. Godzilla whipped his ass then, and should whip his ass again in this new movie.

I don't give a crap how dark it may look, I'm all in for this movie. I loved the Godzilla movie in 2014, I enjoyed the new Kong movie, and I absolutely loved Godzilla King of the Monsters.


You were both right. In the late 60's/early 70's, there were TWO Godzilla vs Kong Kong movies made. One was made by Japan and the other was American. You can probably figure out who the victor was respectively.

The Kong size thing goes all the way back to the King Kong movie from the late 70's with Jeff Bridges and Jessica Lane. In the infamous movie poster, Kong is so big that he's standing atop the World Trade Center with one foot on each tower.
However, in the movie he climbs one tower and hangs out on the roof - nowhere near as large as in the poster.

I haven't seen any of the recent films. Kong and King of the Monsters are on HBO Max, but Godzilla isn't. Is it available for streaming anywhere currently?

Just forced perspective, they put the ship up close and they are really far behind it. Don't pay any attention to Kong being in front of the command tower.

Prolly going to be very silly/borderline stupid, but I am in all day everyday.

Looks like Kong has some sort of super ax that can absorb and redirect Godzillas nuclear fire based on the last scene in the trailer.


Yikes...

I'm not allowed to use slang on an internet forum where we are discussing the merits of a movie about a giant lizard created by nuclear testing fighting a giant gorilla that shrinks and expands constantly? My B, bro. Oh wait, am I allowed to abbreviate bad?

Related, this could be fun. Powerhouse did the Castlevania and Seis Manos series on Netflix (and Seis Manos is a blast if you haven't seen it).

Official first trailer, seconds 3 and 4 at the very beginning on the right side of the screen looking up from what looks like a subway entrance:

THAT'S MECHAGODZILLA!

MECHAGODZILLA IS IN THIS MOVIE!

Godzilla vs Kong vs MECHAGODZILLA!
