MemberBaragonJun-18-2019 3:45 AMOk that's cool. We're probably gonna get the trailer around July that's when King of the Monsters trailer came out. And they have almost similar release date times

MemberTitanosaurusJun-18-2019 4:35 AMThe March release date is actually looking to be one of the more promising options right now.
While Mulan releases 2 weeks later and Onward is 1 week before, that's 2 whole weeks to itself as the primary action movie. It's going up against a Pixar film, sure, but it also has the advantage of landing during Spring Break.
I think Endgame drained moviegoing audiences a bit for all films that came after it. But this release date has no real major competition in the months preceding it; G.I. Joe has also been moved back to November it seems, which is good since that means the action genre will be exclusively for Godzilla vs. Kong for a good while.
And with the frontloading of box office takes, we really only need to be worried about Onward.

MemberMothra LarvaeJun-18-2019 5:13 AMBy not moving the release it also shows studio confidence with the film. All good signs imo.

MemberBaragonJun-18-2019 7:09 AMThis is all good. It shows that the studio has confidence, while also keeping it in a release date with very little competition

AdminGodzillaJun-18-2019 8:59 AM"The studio has confidence in the film," is also what was said about Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
I think keeping the March date is smart too, but I'm going to knock on wood and hope we're not shooting ourselves in the foot with confidence ourselves.

MemberTitanosaurusJun-18-2019 9:53 AMI also think keeping the March date will help to keep the film within relevancy.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters is still fresh in terms of overall cinema scope, and having a sequel less than a year away will hopefully ensure that the Monsterverse is kept within the public eye.

MemberBaragonJun-18-2019 10:39 AMI'm cool with a March release... but they better not show too much footage prior to the movie... like they did with KOM. I think some folks just thought of KOM as another Pacific Rim type movie. This is why WB should have invested more in the 2014 G film and not put the Pacific Rim film in front of it.

MemberMothra LarvaeJun-21-2019 6:30 PMGreat news i was hoping they wouldn't change the release date
