People don’t realize how much Avengers: Endgame sucked the hype from everything too. Look what happened to Detective Pikachu

Can confirm, I saw all 3 in theaters and after Endgame building up the motivation for Detective Pikachu a week later was rough. On a positive note though, remember when it was originally going to come out in May? Bad as everything not Disney had it, trying to fight Endgame would have been a massacre.

I think the "Ummm" was noting that the movie *did* come out in May. May 31, but still...
In my opinion, of course.

It’s awesome how many of my friends I’ve had message me telling me how much they enjoyed KOTM...especially when they’re not into movies like this. Better late than never!

People on the internet can say what they want but honestly people on the internet seem to hate just about anything

That would have been so much better than the scene we got. Nothing against the Ghidorah head, but the Mothra egg would have been more satisfying to fans. Not sure how the general audience would feel.

It is mostly Spider-Man themed, but I'd love to talk cosplay, lightsaber commissions, and countless other topics.

I have a lot of issues with the film but everyone I know who isn't a hardcore fan that's seen it loved it too. That's definitely a good thing.

I saw it 3 times in theaters. The first was with family (who all loved it, especially my dad. Burning Godzilla I think was his favorite part) and the latter two were with friends. Basically everyone I saw the movie with loved it.

I remember the third time I was seeing it with a friend who was going into the Army the next month, and he got all giddy when Godzilla showed up in Boston with the military. He said "I've never felt more manly in my life"

Just found this image of the titans' skulls. 100% unofficial but still, it's pretty good...

...except for Mothra, who shouldn't have eyes or antennae included in her "skull", and Ghidorah, who just looks like himself but with no eyes.

Some deleted scenes from the test footage. A shame these scenes were cut. I would have liked to see them in the actual movie.

That was such a unique choreography in that test footage in Antarctica, shame that wasn’t in

Y'know, i hate to sound like a broken record, but i'm seriously upset that the Antarctica fight had one really memorable moment (Godzilla slamming Ghidorah's heads into the ice) and another moment similar was cut and made it more boring.

A guy who randomly stumbled upon this place one day, invested much too much time into it, and now appears to be stuck here for all eternity..and strangely enough, i do not regret it!

What if Ghidorah actually bit that tail tip off, creating the rounded one we see later on?

By the way, I was hoping one of the previz scenes was the end where all the titans bow.
