Godzilla looks comparatively small compared to Kong. Especially his head and arms. Weird when they are paired together. Still, that scene looks great.

Godzilla is squatting almost and Kong is coming off his foot to stand taller.

It's worth noting that gorillas, and by extension Kong, have really big hands and head for their size when compared to a human, so that's contributing to the strangeness of the scale somewhat.
Just a couple examples:

So combine that with a Godzilla who already has a small head-to-body ratio, and you get gorilla fists fully the size of his head.
(Personally I'd have made Kong smaller, but that's just me and the original movie had them about equal in height so what can you do.)

Does Kong have his collar on? If so, I'm pretty sure that previous video tease from last month of Godzilla swimming and Kong roaring directly predates this new tease.

The visual of Godzilla shooting out of the water like a torpedo reminds me of a crocodile. We've never seen him do that before. It's an incredible visual!

What would be sweet is after the punch Kong expects G to go down, instead he looks back at a confused Kong and gives him a tail whip to the legs for a nod to 1963....

Well Godzilla did jump out of the water to grab Ghidorah and death-rolled him underwater like Crocodiles do in KOTM. It's nice to see it in daylight though.

Well, this movie is trending just from that two second clip. I guess that’s not bad.

Godzilla and Kong together is like Gogeta. They are a far greater result than either one apart.

I mean yes and no, Kong Skull Island and King of the Monsters both trended respectively, along with even Rodan and Ghidorah at some point during trailers/release.

I still remember when people thought the main Muto was Rodan but based on this awesome clip I'm gonna bet that we will get a trailer within the next two weeks. Show me some Rebecca Hall and Jessica Henwick.

The new release date is that just for America, or is it world wide?

So uh, that carrier is sinking. How exactly does Kong get out of that situation? If Kong ends being in the ocean in the presence of Godzilla, i cannot see that going well for the big monkey.

My initial thought is that somehow he gets sucked into the hollow earth. Otherwise, I’m really not sure unless he turns a ship into a paddle board (lol) or boat hops until he gets to shore somewhere

Godzilla wins and gives him the "Don't challange me again look." Kinda like when Superman warns Batman at the Batmobile.
