Not as popular as some other big franchise, but the Monsterverse ain't bad. My biggest gripe about it is it's wank material for Godzilla fans. They are so hell-bent on making Kong look second class and frankly Kong is the better character. Kong has more heart and does not go out of his way to injure humans. Godzilla doesn't care.
I've accepted that they refuse to make Kong as strong as Godzilla and am ok with it. Humans run up against stronger villains, but can still win, especially in fantasy. That's how I look at Kong. A barbarian or knight facing off against a monster. He has weapons. Fine. But fucking let him win once in a while.

He'll probably deliver the killing blow to this new villain, the Scar King.

He'll probably deliver the killing blow to this new villain, the Scar King. Maybe he will, but I want a clean decisive win. He should be able to beat his own villains. Hell, when he has weapons, he should be competing with Godzilla. I'm' tired of this second fiddle shit.

I thought it was a blast!
Godzilla doesn't look as good as previous movies (he looks his best in the first one), but still looks pretty good. The pink/purple is very cool though). The effects are pretty damn good. Kong and most of the apes looks great. Skar King looked a little digital, but not bad. Shimu looked awesome.
There's lots of great action and mythology. The first are awesome and we're finding out more-and-more about this universe.
I don't know how you don't like Kong. He has so much more heart and personality that Godzilla. Godzilla is reckless and for some reason his recklessness is excused. Constantly. Oh, he "feels" danger coming? It's ok if he mows down bridges then, killing people and even innocent titans at times because something bad is coming. They did this in the last movie too. I don't understand how people cheer for that. Kong is likeable. He's a just king and will fight anyone to preserve that sense of justice.
His little sidekick is hilarious too!
Rebecca Hall was kinda bad at times. Dan Stevens too.

Not sure why Scarlett Witch and Quicksilver never showed up after the first movie.
No human character has lasted longer than 2 movies. |

No human character has lasted longer than 2 movies. Yeah, I think that is one legit issue with this particular series is the lack of a central human cast to tie things together. Ya know, like how the MCU had the 6 original Avengers just to show up here and there for the first three phases. |

Ya know, like how the MCU had the 6 original Avengers just to show up here and there for the first three phases. A lot of people don't care/have negative feelings towards the human characters. You have to have someone. I will say the deaf girl is the heart and soul now. She does well with it (for what it is). |

I've really gotten into the mythology/history of this universe.
Did anyone pick up on whether the ancient Titan War between apes and a gorjira was actually Skar King and Godzilla? I thought it was, but watching things fan discussion videos, some make it seem like it wasn't.
