Legendary Photographs has been building up to Godzilla vs. Kong for a very long time. This should be the Infinity War of the Monsterverse, revealing both cinematic heavyweights going to toe-to-toe, with Kong’s ferocity and agility pitted against Godzilla’s absolute power. It sounds fantastic where is it? If they’d stuck to the initial strategy, we’d have seen it in March, but it had been postponed until November for reshoots.
Then came a monster more destructive than also a fraction of the dimensions: COVID-19 and anything in the Monsterverse. It’s wreak havoc on the entertainment world and is now in charge of Godzilla vs. Kong once again missing a release date. This is only because Magic Woman 1984 has been rescheduled for October, taking Godzilla vs. Kong’s spot. That, plus The Matrix 4’s wait means there’s a plum May 2021 launch date going spare. That’s now been snaffled up with this movie, meaning another year of waiting patiently for lovers.
Kong will enter the conflict despite getting a substantial size upgrade. 1 big difficulty facing Kong is Godzilla’s atomic breath, a fearsome weapon he’s employed on his enemies because of the original 1954 movie, Gojira. The trouble this will provide Kong was demonstrated in King Kong vs. Godzilla. When they met, Godzilla blasted the woods in front of Kong, catching it on fire, which got onto Kong’s fur and burnt him. With King Kong unable to find a way to combat this assault, he blasted, throughout their fights.
It’s essential to be aware that Godzilla’s atomic breath is not fire. It is much hotter than this, which makes it even more catastrophic. And Godzilla was obviously. Regardless, King Kong was finally declared the winner of that struggle by Toho, but only due to Kong’s electric powers – which he certainly won’t have in Godzilla vs. Kong. Overcoming Godzilla’s atomic breath will be a lot more difficult from the MonsterVerse. One of the reasons why his atomic breath is such a large issue for Kong is that unlike any of the foes of Godzilla, he doesn’t have a counterattack for it. King Ghidorah’s gravity beams from being in a severe disadvantage when there’s a wide gap between them and Godzilla and Mechagodzilla’s laser cannon and missiles stop them, but Kong doesn’t have a ranged weapon that he can use for that purpose.
A solution for this is to narrow the space between them and take away any chance for Godzilla to use his breath. The plan is not without its flaws. First of all, Godzilla can nevertheless utilize this ability, even when Kong gets his arms around him. Godzilla struck Kong together with his breath to push him off. Kong may not have an edge in a close fight due to Godzilla power. A toy leak teased that Kong could be carrying a giant ruler in Godzilla vs. Kong. If that’s indeed the case, Kong might have a powerful weapon against Godzilla, but whether or not it will be sufficient to dethrone the King of the Monsters remains to be seen.
