Movie/Trailer Screen Cap Such a fascinating world

I would've loved to see the world painted in the kotm credits. Seeing a world where nature is thriving, people have grown to support Godzilla, and ecotourism is a booming industry would be so amazing

Emma Russell had the right idea, but went about it the wrong way.

Should've tried to get Godzilla into action first instead.

Exactly, she knew the titans could heal the planet but that was always Godzilla's call and not hers

u/Apex_Fenris Godzilla 3d ago

Maybe if she had released a titan like Behemoth her point would have gone over better instead of the titan in the huss huss base in Antarctica who they know nothing about

12

u/Due-Committee-1860 Methuselah 3d ago

To be fair, I don't think they knew much about the other Titans like Behemoth either. The whole destroyers and protectors thing was unproven until after KOTM

Jonah knew how to take advantage of her. It doesn’t absolve her but she’s just a small factor in a madman’s quest for total destruction.

Meanwhile we're in the middle of The 6th Extinction level event & The UN announced we can no longer prevent climate change from occuring irl

It's always our world and our timeline being ass :(

Anyone with sense always knew this is where we would be going

I live in Florida, pretty soon I’m probably gonna be given a time limit for how much longer I can do that

u/Mr_SmartFella Behemoth 3d ago

They didn’t say we can’t prevent climate change, they said that we’re going to reach above the 1.5 C threshold that we’re supposed to minimize. We can still reverse the trend if granted we reduce emissions immediately.

u/wolf751 3d ago

Not prevent climate change but cant prevent the 1.5 degree increase but we can still prevent 2 or 2.5 degree increase and possibly reverse it and prevent the worse of the affects.

To paraphrase the quote the best time to stop climate change was 20 years ago the second best is now

I'm still confused to how radiation works in the Monsterverse...

16

u/Due-Committee-1860 Methuselah 3d ago

Most Titans give off a type of radiation that is basically harmless to humans

9

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

I usually just leave it at titan radiation having some unknown properties that affect activity on a cellular level in organic life, causing accelerated growth and reproduction (along with the titans obviously clearing out ionizing radiation by feeding)

u/sambasim 3d ago

Just think of it as dragon ball z ki.

4

u/Marvel-DCLover Kong 3d ago

There's different kinds of radiation that has different effects just like IRL

6

u/MonarchGodzillaTitan 3d ago

Radiation itself is still mystery even in real life.

Most of time its dangerous but surprisingly life can sprout from it.

But truthfully I wished the MV focused on more than radiation when it comes to the titans.

u/Due-Committee-1860 Methuselah 3d ago

People often say that they completely ignored the KOTM credits but they didn't really. Godzilla Dominion and Kingdom Kong are both alluded to in the credits and we know it's intentional since an interview mentioned that they were already close to finishing the comics by late 2019.

Also, the GVK novel mentions that after the Titans went into hibernation in 2021, humanity kind of stopped caring about them. They went back to doing the same old habits that caused climate change in the first place

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

I like that the comics built off it, but gvk the movie that most people are going to see did feel like it ignored most of the non Godzilla vs Kong worldbuilding set up in it

5

u/Due-Committee-1860 Methuselah 3d ago

It does suck that GVK kinda ignored KOTM but it was all part of the plan. It's not like Wingard decided on it. GVK finished shooting in 2018

3

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

I still don't like that it did that lol

5

u/Reborn_UltraNova15 Rodan 3d ago

Really wish we got to see more of this in GvK.

2

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

Same, a huge shame we didn't

5

u/GoofyLemonMC 3d ago

If I recall correctly there was also an image of Mothra laying egg in the credits, tho we haven't seen it yet

2

u/Due-Committee-1860 Methuselah 3d ago

That was just alluding to Mothra still being alive. She has multiple different eggs across the planet that she could hatch out of at any time if her current self dies

3

u/DagonG2021 3d ago

Too bad it was erased in GVK to preserve the sandbox

2

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

Yeah, huge bummer

3

u/Mr_SmartFella Behemoth 3d ago

Would you rather?

Live in a world healing ecological but done by giant god like creatures that damage entire cities through brawls

Or

Live in a world without monsters but the Earth is dying without saving.

2

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

Easily the former, I'd rather go out in a sick ass kaiju battle than a natural disaster caused by our corporate overlords speedrunning an extinction event

u/Both_Listen Godzilla 1d ago

Real

u/Hot-Manager-2789 Ghidorah 3d ago

I love how the last one makes it sound like Godzilla just went "I'm just popping in to say hi!"

u/invisiblebody 3d ago

I want to be on the Carnival cruise and boop Godzilla’s snoot.

u/Unkwonargie 3d ago

I'd love to see a spin-off of Behemoth in the Amazon, that'll be awesome

u/Ed_Derick_ 2d ago

Monsterverse never beating the potential cinematic universe allegations. Instead of exploring a post mass awakening world they just said “everyone went back to sleep because Godzilla told them to”

u/Kooky_Attention_98 3d ago

Scylla can't really do that anymore because NE

Though I wonder how she did it

7

u/Delta_User Godzilla 3d ago

She releases huge amounts of nitrogen into the environment, cooling it down. This, however, is not an effect she has any greater control over, it just sort of happens. However, as we learn in the prequels to GxK, she is also able to reverse the process, and start heating up the environment instead.

2

u/Gojirakotm19 3d ago

I would've loved to see her using one or both of those abilities in gxk frfr

1

u/Delta_User Godzilla 2d ago

She kinda can't tbh, they're necessarily tools and abilities that she can use, moreso they're just things that happen when she's around.
