something hilarious i'm seeing about Kong and Godzilla, and the ship gong/kongzilla/mothkongzilla is that people are saying that Kong is an old man.
spiritually, yes, he's a Perpetually Exhausted Old Man who just wants to take a nap with his adopted kids.
physically and chronologically, he's only recently reached maturity.
he was still growing in Kong: Skull Island which took place in the 70s, reached his full height in GvK which took place in the 2020s, is a little shorter than our boy Goji, and i think some of the comics put his birth around the 1700s?????
all the other titans were in hibernation at that point (on the surface at least), meaning that Kong is basically an 18 yr old and the ship kongzilla is a May/December romance LMAO
can you pick up what i'm putting down?
Mothra is a cougar, Goji is an Old Man, and Kong is out here living his Best Life as their sexy pool boy

Jia, signing: You have really beautiful crystal spikes, Ms. Shimo.
Shimo: What is she doing?
Kong: Oh, that's how she communicates since she cannot hear.
Shimo: Okay. So what did she say?
Kong: She says that you have beautiful crystal spikes.
Shimo:
Kong:
Kong: Umm, Shimo? Are you okay?
Shimo: *tearing up* Yeah. Just got something stuck in my eye.

Godzilla x Kong: New Empire is a Passover classic
Kong fights to free his people from slavery.
Egypt gets destroyed.
Skar King... King... or in ancient Egyptian... Pharoah? Real subtle Wingard.
Godzilla literally parts the seas in multiple scenes.
Shimo has frost breath while living in magma... almost like burning ice... like some sort of plague, perhaps of the biblical variety?
So in summary, Godzilla x Kong is a certified Passover classic, the likes of which we haven't seen since Prince of Egypt.
Thank you for coming to my unhinged ramblings.

So @milk-powrit asked me to draft why I didn't like GxK, to which I decide to oblige.
DISCLAIMER: Those are my personal opinions; of a fan of Monsterverse since 2014 and a nobody with any competence in analyzing media, save some common sense and maybe rudimentals??
Also I already hugely disliked Godzilla vs Kong so my discontent had a part in how I enjoyed the movie.
To conclude English is not my first langauge and even in my langauge, debate is not one of my strenght.
Spoilers alert; so skip or I kindly suggest to block the tag: Godzilla x Kong spoiler.
Let's start with the first thing: I don't enjoy how the tone of the movie shifted so drastically from Kotm to GvsK.
In this post, a youtube user explained better than me why the shifting tone felt like a downgrade. If in Godzilla (2014) Godzilla was introduced by hearing his foot stomping on the ground. It was heavy, massive, it reverbered on the glass of the airport. It felt natural, realistic. How a creature that BIG would move in the real world.
As the user said Realistic =/= Seriousness. Godzilla can be goofy. But Monsterverse!Goji was estabilished in a setting, that was the real world.
In both GvsK and in GxK Godzilla does not feels natural. Was necessary for Godzilla to evolve, to be more nimble, when already in GvsK was already moving in a way unnatural?
Or pulling the 0 gravity fight? What purpose had the evolution, if in the end it was not even necessary. Had really improved his fighting skills? They were the same, on earth and in the hollow earth.
2 reason: I've seen around posts about how media litteracy has gone bad; in some ways about people can no longer sospend their belief and calls anything a plot-hole.
But I think that one thing is suspending the belief but another is the director of the movie making the plot moving from point A to point B without telling the audience how.
For example: Suspension of belief: They had the Beast Glove ready to use, because Monarch was already working on it ✅
But why Jia is the chosen one of the day? How the Iwi in hollow earth knew of Skull island? How the shard to control Shimo works? Why Godzilla would respond to the distress call of the people who fought against him? Why Mothra has a connection to the iwi, in particular. Since in Kong: skull island there's no reference to her? How Jia flew back on Earth with Mothra, without dying for the gravitational pull?.
Not everything has to be the viewer's guess that's what I'm saying.
3 point: Shimo and Skar King are as much wasted potential as it was MechaGodzilla was in GvsK.
Skar is menacing yes, has the ability and dexterity of a formidable foe. He's vile and disgusting, oppressing his clan (let's call it that) and he's even an abusive father. All of these things: but as a villain he's really that dangerous?
He was introduced as this terrible tyrant, a danger to the world. And he wasn't even trying to go on Earth; he went up by accident basically. Because the Iwi had to play with gravity. Or should I believe him, forcing his subordinate moving rocks was to build a staircase to the upside?
And Shimo, sweet girl. She looks so horrible. Her white scales don't blend in for anything. Like she was photoshopped last minute. Her powers do damage I see. But her being presented as one or The first Titan do actually mean something to the plot, to the character? Or a simple red-herring to made her more interesting than she actually is?
Because at the end of the day SHE IS A PET!!
"Oh Kong now has found a mate, so cute". My brothers on earth, she goes on four, is used as a mount the all time and she kept panting the whole time. That's a pet, the old dog you have to force inside when it snows.
It was pretty disappointing.
Last but not least the reason I personally dislike Wingard take on the Monsterverse, which is the point you could probably throw away all my arguments, compelling or not because it's really a ME issue, who don't think no one'd agree and I don't blame anybody for it.
I HATE HOW WINGARD DECIDED TO PORTRAY GODZILLA.
I don't hold nothing over him for having Kong as his favorite. That's personal taste, I respect it.
But when it comes to at the expense of the other protagonist, it rubs me so in the wrong way.
On this point I don't know if I want to discuss it further, but boy I do have to complain on this topic.
To summarize I'm mad Godzilla doesn't get to have the same introspection and grace is allowed to Kong, knowing he can to (if you read the Dominion comic. But since they are only distributed in the US not many does. OR should care about it. Cause I'm first a supporter of the idea that if a media is not capable to give all the informations in like the Movie, you the audience should not have to pay for more. So basically the Novelitation are cool but also a scam)
That's all I had to say about it.
Hoping any of this uphere is comprehensible. If in the end I only sound like a rambling idiot I accept it. This movie is too stupid to be too mad about it.
I'll just ignore it

I like how kong in this universe is more of loner recluse type character. He protects whats his, and doesnt get involved unless he has to or if something attacks him or the people he's protecting directly. I think that makes him a great foil to someone like godzilla who actively tries to keep the other titans in check.
What do you think?

so i see that everyone has enjoyed my Hot Take (tm) on mothkongzilla and so am going to Continue.
Kong is the youngest titan (except for the Suko and the ape babies we see in ~subterranean~ Hollow Earth but we're not counting those rn i'll get back to them be patient ok
S O Kong is only recently matured, lived in seclusion on an island away from any other Titan class titans (skullcrawlers aren't like Goji and the gang, in my head there's different classifications of the titan megafauna), and spent most of his childhood fighting for his life and hanging around a tribe of humans who use telepathy.
he's mysterious, the new kid, powerful strong, and Godzilla is so mad at how handsome Kong's face is that he has to slap the shit outta him.
Mothra is his impulse control ok, without her there to be G-Man's Singular Braincell my mans is left to fend for himself and his first thought is "your face makes me feel things so i'm going to punch it"
that is Kong's introduction to the larger world, and into the polycule

One of the funniest thing my sister and I did was that time we watch Kong the Skull Island for the first time and we got to that scene where Toby Kebbell's character is alone and trying to hide from Kong and both her and I started speculating that maybe he will be the one that bonds with Kong instead of Brie Larson. "Finally, a gay King Kong retalling!" We got so into a bit that we legit yelled queerbait when he died the next scene
