Lol. Poor Canada Day though... Also, yeah, the blowing up alligators thing was the joke of how some people see Teas. What the guy actually thought was that in some parts of Texas there was a New Year tradition similar to that of the giant ball in New York where people make a big Alligator float and light it on fire when the clock strikes midnight... Not sure where he got that idea from... To be honest, I was more confused than surprised he thought that. Good thing I educated him on the fact that alligators are actually not very common in Texas, depending on the area. To be honest, I'm waiting for the day where I hear something more outlandish about Texas. Though, I have heard some more outlandish things regarding other things... like T-rex being a herbivore... ugh... anyways Happy July 4th 2 days late! Or 363 days early..

Do y'all ever wonder what SHMA will do when they complete every monster in the monster countdown?

Skreeeongk always sounded like one of Rodan's short cackles to me, I never understood how they got that from Godzilla's roar. The key I think is to use the Gyaooon more like a guideline and improvise the actual sounds. There's a lot of subtle noises in those long vowel parts that can't really be conveyed without a lot of confusing accent punctuation, so it's more to get you started in the right direction than a perfect copy. Like how cows go "Moo" but that doesn't do justice the actual sound, just gets you in the ballpark.

That still doesn't sound like a godzilla roar when I vocalize it. I've gotten good at mimic animal roars

I don’t know about the legendary roar but the Toho One is officially pronounced “Gyaoooon”.

Lol…Plot armor…well that would be Kong’s only chance I think.  OK so here’s my honest take on the two in the ring.  I will humbly say that if you took Godzilla’s atomic breath away and “Let them fight” then it would be so so close.  Kong would be quicker, Godzilla would be stronger.  Experience would go to Godzilla because he had way many more battles in his growth in MonsterVerse, and Kong…well Skull crawlers, a few dinasours and a giant squid?  It would be very close though.  Look, I’m not a Kong hater; I just think if Godzilla had his nuclear battery all charged then it would be no contest. Maybe Kong realizes that in the beginning battle scene as Godzilla misses his first shot at Kong, and then Kong thinks it through and somehow dismantles Godzilla’s so called death breath.  Then and only then will it be somewhat even…I still would not want either one to perish though, but to eventually unite somewhere in the move to take down a bad guy.  "After their victory, they both turn to each and stare each other down as if they are going to have a re-match. Then they both pause,  do a monster gesture of respect towards one another, and then both walk away, returning to their respected lairs." This is the kind of  ending I think both fan bases would like to see, regardless the outcome of their first round battle.    

Chapter 5: The Fall of Atlantis

A new dawn sets up on the island nation of Atlantis and several centuries since the dissident Cult of Megalon fled to found the underwater Kingdom of Seatopia. Seatopia quickly developed technologies that were once banned by the Atlantean council. Megalon's severed claws were replaced grafted with mechanical drills and was given cybernetic implants to further the seatopian's control over the beetle-like Titan. The Seatopians were preparing to launch an assault on the Kingdom of Atlantis, however seeds of Atlantis's destruction have already begun to bare fruit...

King Ghidorah's arrival to at Atlantis was an interesting time, Atlantis began colonizing the mainland and so their forces were spread thin. Legend, their resident Godzilla retreated to the hollow earth to refuel his nuclear energy reserves while smaller godzillas continue to shape the culture of start up human tribes that imprint the image of destructive sea dragons. King Ghidorah looked upon the great whole of Atlantis before cackling sinisterly, he flared open his impressive wing span before emitting lightning from them, imprinting his status as a god in godzilla's absence. The people of atlantis looked upon the golden false king and refused to acknowledge him as their new cheftian god. Ghidorah flashed his fangs in the most menacing slasher grin imaginable, he turned his gaze away from the dissident atlanteans and aimed his trio of heads towards a major population center before unleashing his gravity beams down upon the atlantean people. Schools, Hospitals, and Urban Residential areas were stripped of life, all that remains of them was dust. 

King Ghidorah sat upon the temple that belong to the Godzillas. He roared challengingly to any who dare to oppose him and so came the Godzillas and one Zilla. Kiryu, Gigantis, Showa, Heisei, Eva, Jagger, Uyrik, Jaeger, Shin, and Legend. Kiryu arose out of the water first, GYAOOOON!! he roared as he charged with full zeal at the towering golden space dragon. Ghidorah with only his right head snapped at Kiryu nap before tossing the diminutive godzilla back into the ocean. Eva the largest of the Zillas bolted out of the water with her pack, Ghidorah flapped his wings sending the basal godzillasaurids flying across atlantis. Showa took advantage of the Zillas to get up close to King Ghidorah, all the while Heisei, Jagger, Uyrik, and Jaeger stood in the harbor to fire a volley of radioactive fire at the space dragon. Ghidorah cackled as the atomic fire burned at his golden scales, Ghidorah's left head taunts Showa by flickering his tongue out and quickly Showa was sent flying a mile backwards. Shin arose out of the water but stood there, Shin didn't care much for humanity nor cared much for life. So he stood there and watched as the other godzillas attempted to fight off Ghidorah, then Shin Godzilla arose out of the water. He opened his jaws to unleash his firey atomic breath before splitting his jaw and focusing his atomic breath into a laser beam. He then directed the laser towards the other godzillas in the harbor, his beam cut through their flesh and burned their hides, Heisei mustered up the strength to fire back at the traitor Shin Godzilla but Shin Godzilla wasn't even phased. A pack of Zilla attempt to pile on to Shin Godzilla but Shin uses the beams from his spines to slice and dice the attacking Zillas. An angry Eva charged at Shin's behind before Shin's tail fired a beam into the mother Zilla, she was given a mortal wound through the chest before collapsing into the rubble. Then Legend arose out of the water, he fires his atomic breath into the sky. The atlanteans, the injured godzillas and zillas, the traitor Shin Godzilla, and King Ghidorah turned to stare at Legend. 

Legend stared down at King Ghidorah and behind the King of the Monsters. The dark sky was then illuminated by the Queen of the Monsters, Mothra. Following in the wake of Legendary Godzilla was Gamera, Anguirus, King Kong, Gorosaurus, Baragon, Varan, Mandra, King Caesar, and following Mothra's wing was Rodan and Battra. King Ghidorah arose his three heads to call upon his allies. Pods from the sky rained down like meteors and out of the pods was Desighidorah and a flock of miniaturized single headed ghidorah-like dragons called Dorats. Desighidorah and the flock of Dorats join Shin Godzilla and King Ghidorah as they prepare for battle. Mothra, Battra, and Rodan swarmed to intercept the the flock of Dorats while Legend raced up the atlantean coast with his allies. Legend looked up upon the carnage that Ghirdorah has evoked. Mothra flew across the wasteland releasing her healing dust to heal the injured godzillasaurids. Kiryu, Gigantis, Showa, Heisei, Eva, Jagger, Uyrik, and Jaeger all rose to their feat fully rejuvenated.  The Atlanteans also joined the fight by releasing giant robots they called Jets to aid their gods in fighting off King Ghidorah and his kin; the mightiest of them was Jet Jaguar.

Wait why is Rodan in the Permian period? Isn't he a pterosaur of some kind?

I'm from Texas as well and we certainly don't blow up alligators, besides Alligators are more of a Louisiana thing anyways. Lets keep 4th of July dealing with Independence Day shall we?

Most are just hardcore Godzilla fans who refuse to believe Godzilla can actually lose to anyone other than Mothra. Will King Kong win? I don’t know. Deep down I want him too but my brain is telling me he might lose. They don’t have the brain to tell them that. I can accept a Kong defeat as long as was not a pushover. Looking at all the development the monsterverse gave Godzilla, 2 comics, 2 movies, websites, and books, I can see he is the one they really care about. Kong was just an afterthought it feels like. So I’m guessing the favoritisms for Godzilla is leading to his win. I just don’t know much about this Kong beyond his movie and short comic to actually figure out his full capability. If I can get a comic focused on a full grown Kong and see some more feats then I can actually come up with a winner in my mind. As of now all we have is his movie when he was a child and a comic we saw him do almost nothing in besides kill a few spiders and a crocodile of page. I have to give it to Godzilla for now because I can at least see what he is fully capable of. Kong just doesn’t seem too important to the monsterverse atm. I really want him to win though.

Game of thrones doesn't have much plot armor though XD

Nice, but one nitpick though... or three. Where did Rodan go, when did Mothra even get to the crater, and why did Godzilla give her a look of respect, but not Rodan? Where is he now?  Other than that, great start to your sequel!

Perfect introduction

Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (1995) - Budget: $10M.
Gamera: Guardian of the Universe (1995) - Budget: $4.5M

Literally every single protagonists' greatest weapon is plot armor including Godzilla.

If 2 MUTOs can push Godzilla to a near defeat I don't see why people would think Kong is in for such an uphill battle.

^You'll see.

Not bad, IME. Real quick, does this mean the other Titans from KOTM also exist in this universe, or are the other Mega Fauna classic Toho monsters?

Everyone needs a little plot armor now and then lol. And I don’t really consider him a kaiju either considering the term came out after the fist King Kong. His movie is incredibly different from the standard giant monsters movies. I admit I love Kong more than Godzilla seeing as he actually introduced me to giant monsters. Godzilla 1998 was my first Godzilla movie so I love zilla despite what the rest of the fandom says. I don’t personally think King Kong and Godzilla fit in well together and should stay separate but monsterverse is doing a pretty good of making it work. King Kong was never designed to fight giant skyscraper size monsters with powers to begin with. He was just supposed to be a lonely giant ape in need of companionship. So bring on the plot armor and throw in a plot sword and shield too(no lightning powers though)! I’m betting on a berserker rage where he just relies on his savage instinct and rage to fight losing his rational thinking.

I honestly don't like Kong as much as other Kaiju, if he actually counts as one (which by literal definition he should), but I don't exactly dislike him. Either way, Godzilla would probably win. Kong's greatest weapon may be plot armor, if the writers grant him such an amazing power XD

Yeah, as much as I Love King Kong he should and probably would lose. I do believe this would the first time this Godzilla fights a kong so he won’t be knowing what to expect. I have a thought that the cave painting is of another Godzilla and Kong or a prediction of the future seeing as the natives have a plant they drink to see visions. Both monsters will be learning as they pound each other so I expect both to have their moments of one sided glory but around the end one would eventually start dominating. Kong is probably going to lose but damn it he will give his all doing it. I actually have a topic on Kong’s and skull islands role in the monstersverse. Check it out if you want. I also want someone to upvote on it cause no one seemed to care when I posted it. Want to raise my rep around here.

Oh, sorry I didn't know about that information from the book! He still doesn't have the same experience as Godzilla though. I don't think it should be one sided though. I think Godzilla should beat Kong, or vice versa, or they get separated in their first fight, and in their second fight Kong gets the upper hand at first, but then Godzilla starts kicking his *** for the rest of the fight and then as he's about to finish him off they both end up having to fight the main villain Kaiju of the movie. Then they go their separate ways, still being an underdog fight a bit like Dougherty said, still having the clear winner being Godzilla. Kong does stand a chance, but that chance shouldn't be reality because of plot armor, it should be reality only if Godzilla has been weakened by something else, just woke up, or it's their first fight.

I can admit your right about some things. Godzilla is the clear winner on paper and has a bigger role in the monsterverse. What you said about Kong not being an alpha is wrong though. The movie did not show it, but in the book there are a few pages dedicated to what Kong’s was doing during the call. He was ignoring and got pissed because the skull crawlers woke up. He got up and went to fight an army of skull crawlers. While not super species like I said earlier, the monsters on the island are clearly dangerous and powerful enough to be considered threats. They would surly have posed a challenge to a young Kong. Now that he is bigger, not so much. Godzilla is clearly the expected winner though, so that makes Kong the underdog. Honestly who knows at this point, I say they are equal. Nice to know there are some people who can see that Kong has a chance here. Seems like there are a lot of people who think this should be one sided. 

I know that of course, I'm from Texas, the place that blows up giant alligators for fireworks XD. KIDDING!!! Just to be clear, nobody I know here does that!!! I actually did meet a guy in California that thought we actually did do something similar to that though XD I just felt like mentioning that in some places it isn't associated with MURICA or THE EVIL TEA TAX!!! XD Of course the Boston Tea Party wasn't the main or only reason America split off from Great Britain, I just felt like making a joke!

Good points, but I don't think Kong was really helping the good humans much, what he did was keep one in his hand during a fight. I'm not sure why he helped her, there wasn't anyway for him to differentiate her from the bad, or possibly even from other humans, like a human looking at an ant. He might have thought she was a rock and wanted to smash her into the skullcrawler's eye until he realized he was holding a human. Maybe he thought she was one of the people who didn't hurt him so he didn't kill her. Also, Godzilla doesn't seem to be entirely indifferent to people, he shown multiple times in the movie to regard humans around him, like on the submarine when it was on the surface after they revitalized Godzilla. He spent a good moment staring at them and getting really close to them. He was either trying to see if they were a threat, or giving them thanks for helping him, if he and Kong somehow can tell good people from bad. Or maybe he just wanted another pat on the head like Serizawa gave him, who knows? Also, since the movie is called "Skull Island", I don't think it would matter if they put king into the title, and they called him King in the movie with no knowledge of Godzilla, as well as saying he isn't the only king while showing a picture of Godzilla in the post credit scene. Also, while Kong had a small civilization with few known shrines dedicated to him, Godzilla had an entire huge city absolutely covered with shrines to him, there was even an entire room dedicated to him for resting and/or healing him. Even if they are both kings, Godzilla seems to have a higher status among humans and monsters alike. Heck, even Monarch treats Kong practically the same as any other titan, and he was following Ghidorah's call to action in the movie, unlike Godzilla and even Mothra who resisted their calls as they were more among the alpha status than other titans, a trait Kong doesn't show. So saying Kong is a hero isn't necessarily true, he seems to be a regular titan who got a movie, looking over his area and following the occasional calls from the alpha titan, like Rodan or Scylla. Also, even a quarter of millions of years is still at least hundreds of thousands of years of experience, especially when you consider he used to be very active during the times of ancient civilizations, since he was around enough that people dedicated shrines and entire huge cities (or at least a giant room filled with lava and radiation in the heart of their city) to him. So he was probably very active, and he has experience with Kong's own species as shown by the underwater cave painting of him fighting one of Kong's ancestors. Kong also doesn't have experience with creatures on the same caliber as Scylla, Behemoth, Rodan, Ghidorah, or Godzilla, while that's the kind of fighting Godzilla specializes in. Kong is better for hunting other short range creatures, not ones with special powers and/or ones that can fly, both of which Godzilla has beaten. Also, technically Kong probably isn't a gorilla, based off of his species possibly being around since Godzilla's if assuming the same origins as other titans, and since his posture is more bipedal than a gorilla's mostly all four's (quadrupedal) position. So assuming the same strength isn't entirely accurate, especially when he's so massive he probably struggles to hold his own weight on land. Also, most of the super species you mentioned aren't enough to classify as actual super species, or titans, to Monarch, or else there would be a lot more titans than 17 and if not, there would be a lot more titans on Skull Island than the Monarch website mentions. So even Monarch thinks they aren't on the same caliber as Behemoth and the like. In fact, most of them were smaller than Kong, including the giant squid Kong ate. The only thing his size we saw was the giant skull crawler. 

July 4th is the American's Declaration of Independence from the British Empire.

I agree that Godzilla should win, but I disagree that he is weaker and less experienced. Kong is full grown now so his strength should be equal to or maybe even more than Godzilla’s seeing as Gorillas can lift 5 to 8 times their own weight. Kong has also been fighting super species every day of his life since he was born. Godzilla has been hibernating for periods of millions of years. I bet he was sleeping most of his life so his real life experience is probably 1/4 of his actual age. I don’t think Godzilla really had that many challenges on his level either. I imagine that he mostly was just left alone by other titans until a rival alpha rose to challenge him. I would have to put experience at a little higher than Kong. On Godzilla being a hero, no. He does not care about humanity, they are what ants are to us. They are just there and you don’t really care for them until they start crawling on you or invading your house. Kong did attack and kill the humans though, but they were dropping bombs on his home and waking up the skull crawlers. Of course he would kill them. Not to mention they were trying to kill him. Kong does actively help the good humans who were kind to him and helped him. He is not a hero by any means, but he is more involved with humans seeing as he saves them and defends their settlement in the comic. He actually cares unlike Godzilla who just indifferent. About King Kong having his title revoked, that’s wrong. He is Kong because calling the movie King Kong would just confuse merchandising and people. They want to differentiate him from all the other king Kong’s. He is clearly the king of the island as stated in his movie and is a god to the natives. Nothing was taken from him. I feel like they would make Godzilla win in the movie, but it would be one hell of a fight for Godzilla and he would just come out on top by a hair. But Godzilla would realize that he can’t protect the entire world or be the only alpha so he would just walk away. It would be impossible for Godzilla to keep every titan  in check just like it would be impossible for a wolf to keep every other wolf on earth in check. Kong remains alpha of the island and Godzilla keeps his alpha position and his crew. 

Godzilla should win, I don't see any reason for Kong to win. I mean, Godzilla's ancient and in the 1900's Kong's still growing, so still a sub adult and therefore likely has less experience than an ancient creature that fought creatures with similar capabilities to him, (i.e. ranged attacks), and ones that could fly that were on par with himself (Ghidorah). Kong's main experience that we know of was that he managed to beat a big skullcrawler, which is still a great feat, but it's nothing compared to beating Ghidorah TWICE (cave painting+KOTM) Godzilla has Atomic Breath and possibly his classic Nuclear Pulse. He should be fine against a less experienced and probably weaker creature than himself. Especially since they're both anti-heroes. In fact, Godzilla seems to be more of a hero, as while Kong intentionally attacked people, Godzilla never did so, and saved them for the most part, though not as carefully as Kong did to ONE human. Godzilla keeps an entire world full of Kaiju in check, while Kong watches over Skull Island only, not influencing the main world much if at all. If it's based off of influence, then Godzilla has done more for the sake of humanity (whether intentionally or not) than Kong ever did, so he's technically more "heroic" than Kong, based off of acts of heroism alone. Of course personality and a bunch of other factors should be taken into account, there's not enough information about the Kaiju to do so. So based on quantity alone, Godzilla is more "heroic", especially from the narrative pushed throughout KOTM. Also, everyone should remember he used to be called King Kong, but like King Ghidorah in the Monsterverse had the title of king revoked, possibly because Godzilla is supposed to take the title, especially after King Of The Monsters. If that's actually an intentional decision, and that's what they meant from that decision, then Godzilla would probably win. Yeah, I know, it's probably a flawed argument, but I just wanted to give my thoughts on it.

4th of July!!! Daughter's Day in Iran, so happy Daughter's Day to all the women of Scified- I mean the most Murican day of the year!!! XD

I don't know if the Monsterverse would end solely because of Godzilla's death. I mean, frankly, it's Kong's movie that's made the most money of the Monsterverse flicks.

I think destroyah would be pretty cool in the monsterverse

Well I think we all want to see a great fight.  As I said earlier in the post, if Godzilla dies, then I believe Monster verse would cease to exist.  Keep him alive and if the writers and producers deem Kong a winner, then at least let it go to the score cards, like a split decision! Lol  I would still like to see them two unite to defeat a monster villain like Destroyah.  Now that would be bad ass!  

Even though it's the fifth happy late 4th of July! Only nine days until my birthday now!!!

Can't wait for the sequel!!! Also, liked the little nod to the 2014 movie at the end there!

Legendary chapter

Thank you Im Durp! Finally someone who understands! Why can’t he win? I know he is more popular now but why do people care so much?

My favorite incarnation of the big G is 1975 from terror of mechagodzilla.... I know that Godzilla vs Megalon, Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla, and Terror of Mechagodzilla all use the same suit, but they all had changes to the face and to me the 1975 face was absolutely the best!!! I love that they made it look more menacing and I love how the body is shaped suited for combat. The only flaw I see is it should have more big plates on the back but other than that it's my favorite!!! I also love the legendary 2019 version as well!!! I love all incarnations of the big G except the one from Son of Godzilla, that one is UGLY and the 1998 doesn't even count to me!!! So there, my number one is 1975, number 2 is 2019, and the rest to me are equal except the one from son of godzilla..... lol Oh yeah, not really a fan of shin godzilla, the arms and tail kill it for me. If the arms were bigger and the tail wasn't as long that one would be a good one just as equal but those flaws to me make it bad, it's still better than the 1998 and son of godzilla incarnations. The legendary Godzilla is just a powerhouse and looks super massive!!! Looks like he means business, and the 1975 one is just my favorite, terror of mechagodzilla is my favorite godzilla movie as well so it might be kinda biased!!!

I've always wondered why the Kong loss is such a sore topic for some people. I mean it's not like Godzilla has a perfect record outside of that loss, hell in the next movie he loses to 2 Mothra larva which always struck me as much more a WTF loss than the Kong one, at least when I cared about that type of stuff.
