number 10 when godzilla and kong each
appeared in modern times
an ancient alpha predator millions of
years older than mankind
from an age when the earth was 10 times
more radioactive than it is today
since monsters rarely get birth
certificates we don't know the true
age of the titans but we do know when
each of them stomped into the spotlight
within the monster verse
godzilla had been spotted a few times
over the course of modern history but he
really became public knowledge after
showing up in major cities in 2014.
kong has a similar story although he
remained out of the public eye for a
long time known only to the locals of
skull island
that all changed with a mission to the
island in 1973.
kong is not the only king
while kong's existence was mostly kept
quiet throughout the 20th century
everyone will definitely know who he is
when he fights godzilla in the big city
number nine the villainous alan jonah is
still around
the most terrifying villain in godzilla
king of the monsters
is arguably alan jonah this former
colonel believes letting the titans roam
free could
save the earth and keep humanity in
check i've seen human nature
first hand and i'm here to tell you that
it doesn't get any better it just gets
worse together with dr emma russell and
a group of soldiers he finds and awakens
the likes of king ghidorah and rodan
when ghidorah awakens titans around the
globe however untold
destruction ensues man does not control
the laws of nature
but neither do you even though godzilla
puts a stop to the chaos
jonah escapes and acquires one of
ghidorah's heads
there's been no confirmation that the
villain will necessarily return
but we're worried about what jonah could
do with a godor ahead
we'll take it number eight godzilla
wasn't always the villain
gojira may be the answer i believe
he's here to restore balance he can
defeat them when godzilla emerged in
2014
he wanted to stop two mutos from
wreaking havoc across the world
he made a big return again in 2019 to
make sure king ghidorah didn't become
the twisted king of the titans
after serving as the unlikely hero
however it looks like godzilla is
breaking bad in 2021
a trailer for godzilla vs kong makes it
look like he's done protecting humanity
godzilla's out there and he's hurting
people and we don't know why he appears
to be on a destructive rampage
given that godzilla saved the world
twice within 10 years however
something seems suspicious about his
sudden heel turn hopefully the humans
get godzilla back on their side before
the credits roll
we would hate to see our gigantic
protector live long enough to become the
villain there's something provoking him
that we're not seeing here
with the same opinion number seven
radiation can help godzilla the source
of the radiation
that's why he returned here he's feeding
regenerating you know how popeye gets an
extra boost of strength from spinach
turns out that radiation can do
something similar for godzilla
in king of the monsters he gets severely
wounded by a weapon called the oxygen
destroyer
a group of scientists decides to help by
exposing him to a radioactive blast
from a nuclear warhead
after a tense fight and a little help
from mothra godzilla turns this excess
power into an explosive attack against
his foes
his ability to absorb radiation to heal
or increase his power
could give him an edge in battle if
godzilla starts losing
a quick snack at a nuclear power plant
might just put him back on top
jesus good thing he's on our side
for now number six kong lost his parents
you don't want to wake up the big one
how big is it it's bigger
it wiped out his whole family there's a
reason that kong is the last of his kind
as explored in the comic book skull
island the birth of kong
his parents lost their lives to a
vicious race of reptilian monsters known
as skull crawlers
kong's history with these monsters has
given him plenty of practice with
fighting titanic creatures
he's got the strength to get the job
done but he's also resourceful
and intelligent enough to use improvised
weapons against them when needed
given that his family lost their lives
to the skull crawlers he's probably not
going to be too trusting of other
monsters
kong's experience with fighting and
angry titans will make him a formidable
opponent for godzilla
number five godzilla has beaten tough
titans before
this alpha predator of yours doctor
do you really think he has a chance
while kong is certainly an impressive
fighter
godzilla is no slouch himself he has
massive strength
plenty of endurance and the ability to
unleash atomic breath
his abilities and tenacity have led him
to score some major victories
godzilla tracked several titans across
the world survived being hit with a
variety of man-made weapons
and fought and defeated two mutos at the
same time
and that was just in his first outing
what about mo larry and curly over here
godzilla
will bring balance oh i get it
well sarah zawa let him fight action i
used to love it when he said that
in his second go-around godzilla faced
king ghidorah
an alien titan with multiple heads that
can heal itself and fire
gravity beams with a little help from
his friends he defeated this formidable
foe
if kong was expecting an easy win he's
gonna be in for a very rude awakening
number four mark and madison russell
will both return i'm saving the world
but by releasing those things that
doesn't make sense as impossible as it
seems it does
after dr emma russell joined jonah's
misguided cause and godzilla king of the
monsters her ex-husband and daughter
tried to do some good to balance the
scales
their actions helped save godzilla and
the world
mark and madison russell are played by
kyle chandler and millie bobby brown
respectively
and both actors delivered strong and
captivating performances that truly made
us care about their family
chandler and brown will return to play
key roles in godzilla versus kong
they will be joined by a stacked cast
that includes brian tyree henry
isa gonzalez zhang zhiyi and alexander
skarsgard
the combined acting talents of this
ensemble should make the scenes without
kaiju
just as interesting to watch she had
nowhere to go so
i made a promise to protect her
and i think that in some way khan did
the same
number three mechagodzilla could be in
the works during a godzilla vs kong
trailer
eagle-eyed fans saw a metallic-looking
monster with glowing red highlights
those tiny details instantly convinced
some that mechagodzilla will appear in
the movie
in past monster movies mechagodzilla was
a giant robot built to destroy godzilla
but the trailer wasn't the only sign
that this mecca would appear in the
monster verse
during the credits of godzilla king of
the monsters an article claims that the
monarch agency is building a mechanized
giant on skull island and throughout the
monsterverse films
we've seen that the organization has
access to plenty of technology
all of these tiny clues seem to indicate
that the massive mechagodzilla could be
roaring onto our screens
very soon nature always has a real
balancing itself
the only question is
what what will we play number two
monarch's long history welcome to the
monarch
this island is just the beginning
monarch is a vital worldwide
organization in the monsterverse
the agency was created in the 1940s to
keep tabs on massive
unidentified terrestrial organisms
across the world their activities
include tracking down creatures like
kong on remote islands
and containing titans before they have a
chance to wreak havoc
when monarch's security measures have
failed in the past however they've
relied on godzilla to protect humanity
what's with the light show
it's an intimidation display
like a gorilla pounding in his chest now
that their hero has seemingly taken a
dark turn
they'll need to put their faith in kong
still the agency's intervention has
saved the lives of countless individuals
in the past
hopefully their knowledge of titans
coupled with kong's involvement
should be enough to save the world from
devolving back into chaos we need
calm the world needs him
to stop what's coming before we unveil
our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions there
are plenty of kaiju still around
will they take sides on every continent
the titans are triggering earthquakes
wildfires tsunamis and disasters we
don't even have names for yet
this could be the finale of the
monsterverse as of february 2021
there are no more movies planned this is
our only chance
we have to take it mothra perished in
battle but
did she leave an egg behind
king ghidorah is an alien will more
aliens appear
it tells of a great dragon who fell from
the stars
a hydra whose storm swallowed both men
and gods alike you mean an alien yes
it's the 36th godzilla film and 12th
king kong movie
these franchises have big staying power

number one kong won the first matchup
thus the battle of the giants which may
or may not have taken place millions of
years ago
may be recreated soon on the nassu plane
in 1962 in their original
non-monsterverse matchup godzilla and
king kong fought each other for the
first time
the battle seemingly ended in a tie when
both creatures fell into the ocean
however toho the studio that made the
film stated that kong officially won
their epic bout
the trailer for this upcoming epic
seemingly pushes us to root for the big
ape to win the rematch
but we can't help but feel a little bad
for godzilla
he's really doomed to lose this rematch
as well
kong bows to no one both combatants have
gone through some pretty significant
changes since they last fought almost
60 years ago regardless of who walks
away with the title
everyone who gets to witness this big
brawl is definitely a winner
let them fight do you agree with our
picks
