    Remember Godzilla? Remember King Kong?? Well they're back! Again! Godzilla vs. Kong is a movie with Godzilla and King Kong in it and it's out now and that's the movie.

    Incredibly nerdy comment which I am sure Mika and Jay will never read:
    Apparently, after doing a little digging, it turns out Godzilla did not kill the other titans after the end of Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
    Rather, in a comic called Godzilla: Dominion he apparently commands them all to go back into hibernation, because he sensed Ghidorah's presence and was worried that they would fall back under Ghidorah's control. (Presumably this presence was actually Mechagodzilla.)
    He did kill one of them who tried to challenge him (the big octopus one, I think? Syclla?) presumably because they still needed a giant monster fight in their comic. But the rest are still alive, just hibernating, so they can still have Rodan in another film if they want.
    (Godzilla wants to fight Kong in this film because Kong, unlike the other Titans, won't submit to him. Rodan is listed as "defeated" in the movie because he submitted to Godzilla.)

They tekked the tek and put it in the skull to make a remote connection to the brain and then put a VR connection in the skull.
    Ghidora being alive (technically) is why Godzilla is losing his shit and attacking everything.

    Kong popping his shoulder back: When I saw it, I instantly thought that’s like Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon 2. Then in the credits, under “featuring properties licensed from...” Among the previous Godzilla and Kong films, there was Lethal Weapon 2.
    So I wondered if the shoulder pop was so iconic, lawyers said they have to license it.
    Random shot, I messaged the director on Instagram, and surprisingly, he replied.
    Turns out, it is a homage but the license is for other, more direct references to LW2 in the film that were cut.
