At this point, it seems pretty much inevitable that they WILL INDEED team up at some point in the movie. I just hope it's only like 5 minutes or something because, ya know, it worked out sooooo good for Batman VS. Superman
This is still to this day, the most bizarre reason to oppose Godzilla and Kong teaming up, this weird insinuation... - Batman v Superman did not perform awful critically and disappointingly at the box office because Batman and Superman teamed up. And it's incredibly weird that some people on this forum seem to think this
My main point is, I want the focus to be on Godzilla and Kong fighting each other. If there is a team up (which again seems inevitable) I do not want it to take away from Godzilla and Kong's battles. I wasn't even saying I hate the notion of a Godzilla/Kong tag team. On the contrary, As a fan of both kaiju, it's the kind of things dreams are made of. My concern is the execution of it. If it's done right, it could be epic. Question is...WILL it be done right. As far as Batman VS. Superman goes (IMO of course), it was a mess of a movie. While I also agree that it wasn't the team up that ruined the movie, IMHO, the transition from foe to ally wasn't smooth and could have been much better. The movie did indeed have more issues that had nothing to do with the team up, however, many who liken or are reminded of it in not such a good light; won't be thinking it was subpar because of whatever other non-team up related reason. They'll just remember that it had a team up and wasn't a great movie. It's not logical reasoning but that's just how many of the general audience think. Us DIEHARD G fans make up a very small percentage of revenue. A prime example of this is KOTM. Once again, IMO, it was a great movie. Sure it had it's problems and wasn't perfect but as a fan, it was the kind of Godzilla movie I've waited for for many years. Still though, it underperformed at the box office, seemingly because it didn't appeal to the general audience as much as the fans but I digress. Believe it or not, I don't even hate BvS. I just think it's a "meh" movie. I want GvK to be a better film and do well enough for the Monsterverse to continue. Whether fair judgement or not, I don't want something as seemingly miniscule as a comparison of GvK to BvS to deter movie goers. Like everyone here, I love Godzilla and want the brand (both Legendary AND Toho) to be successful so we can continue getting movies.
