Godzilla and King Kong fight again Godzilla x Kong: A New Empire, which raises questions about what this means for the story and their monster universe rivalry.However Godzilla vs. Kong Centered on the conflict between the two titular Titans, its sequel is being heavily marketed as a team-up. However, that’s not to say the two will be on the same side throughout the movie.
The battle between the two ancestral rivals ends with Godzilla’s decisive victory over Kong. Presumably due to their reluctant alliance against the MonsterVerse’s Mechagodzilla, Godzilla and Kong parted ways amicably. Godzilla vs. Kong The ending hints that their rivalry is resolved, but hardly rules out a continuation of their battle.Thanks for the second trailer Godzilla x Kong: A New EmpireIt’s now confirmed that Godzilla and King Kong will at least be at odds with each other more often when they return to the big screen.
Godzilla attacks Kong in Egypt proves their rivalry isn’t over yet
A clip from the trailer shows Godzilla unleashing a burst of pink atomic breath on the fleeing Kong, destroying part of a pyramid in the process. The scene doesn’t reveal the extent of the fight or how it will play out, but it does confirm that Godzilla will attack Kong at some point after his transformation. This shows that even though Godzilla and Kong chose not to re-fight after Mechagodzilla was destroyed, they were still fierce rivals.Most likely, neither has forgotten nor forgiven their actions in Godzilla vs. Kong.
This aspect of their dynamic helps explain why Godzilla attacks Kong. While he did let Kong go at the end of their last movie, it’s worth noting that Kong had just saved him from Mechagozilla. That might have earned Kong a reprieve, but nothing more. Not only that, but it can be seen from the loss to Mechagodzilla that Godzilla is very tired. A lack of energy may have contributed to his decision to forgo his fourth try with Kong.
Another factor to consider is the territorial nature of the monster, especially Godzilla.Godzilla cements his status as leader of the Titans Godzilla: King of the Monsters, effectively making him the apex predator of the entire ecosystem.As for Kong, finally someone suggested Godzilla vs. Kong He will become the Alpha of the world of Hollow Earth, giving him his own place of dominance. With that in mind, Godzilla may view Kong’s return to the surface as an invasion of his territory. In Godzilla’s mind, the entire surface world may belong to him.
Why Godzilla vs. Kong’s rematch might be different from their previous fight
While Godzilla and Kong’s battle has already received a fair amount of attention in the MonsterVerse, their upcoming rematch is bound to bring something new to the table. After all, both Godzilla and King Kong are sportier versions. At the moment, it’s hard to say whether Godzilla’s new transformation simply makes him more powerful or also gives him additional abilities, but as far as King Kong is concerned, a different approach should be taken this time around. In the Egyptian scenes, King Kong wears an armored glove called the “Beast Gauntlet.” Apparently, it possesses some kind of energy-based power.
Has a beastly gauntlet – not a Godzilla-powered axe Godzilla vs. Kong – Kong’s fighting style should be changed enough to make their next battle an unfamiliar challenge for both Titans. But whether it will have an impact on the final result is another matter. Any advantages Kong gains from his new weapons are likely to be negated by Godzilla’s own abilities, so when they meet again in Egypt, Kong should once again be considered the underdog.
The rematch between Godzilla and King Kong is likely to be the beginning of their joining forces
A Look at the Stakes and Promise of the Team Against MonsterVerse’s Ska King Godzilla x Kong: A New Empire, Godzilla vs. Kong’s rematch in Egypt was supposed to be a flash-in-the-pan affair. Perhaps it was this battle that brought the two together. In the trailer, Kong dodges Godzilla’s atomic breath instead of attacking. This could be a defensive measure, similar to when he was trying to avoid Godzilla’s atomic breath in Hong Kong, or a sign that Kong has no intention of fighting. King Kong may need Godzilla’s help, but will have to endure another fight – and possibly another loss – to get it.
