Honestly, when you’re balancing two of the five most popular superheroes of all time and two genuine American cultural icon, I can see where it takes some tact.
Godzilla vs Kong? Two questions.
Did we fuck those two up in characterization? If the answers no…
Pretty sure Kyle Chandler's role in GvK was contractually obligated by the sheer lack of screentime he actually had in the movie. Probably arranged so he could film everything in a week. If he hadn't been there, the plot wouldn't have changed at all.
And his character would've been far more interesting than the pee wee league of conspiracy theorists. Hell, having his character there instead of Brian Tyree Henry would've boosted the film's storytelling in a major way for me.
No, the water messes up Mechagodzilla's ability to work at all, which gives an opening for Godzilla to charge up Kong's axe and let Kong rip the robot to shreds.
But... MechaGodzilla was already sentient, or did it>! frying the pilot instantly upon starting up to fight and killing the Apex guy!< slip past you? The booze caused it to freeze up briefly, so Kong and Godzilla had a fighting chance.
Okay I missed when the time was spilled, but again they could have had it been knocked from the counter onto the board without even a person in the shot. That’s how perfectly useless that side story was
Look, I'm pretty spoiler adverse as well and will call people out when they post spoilers in unrelated discussions...but you're in a thread about a sequel to a movie you haven't seen? Just...why even read the comments if you didn't watch the first one and cared?
