Think about it. Could the MV be considered an epic?

Examples of epics include things like Star wars and Lord of the rings. Or Epic poems like the odyssey.

Epics have things like:

Adventure

Central heroic figure

Vast settings

Supernatural forces

Grand scale

Godzilla technically? has all of these things?

Would the MV be considered an "Epic?"

Zwei Wing is the best singing duo. Change my mind.

Maybe, not all too familiar with the genre... unless you count the Monsterverse lol

If people weren't lazy, we wouldn't try to be efficient. If we weren't efficient, we'd never get anything done.

No. It's not a trilogy. It's a four film universe. (so far)

Well, TECHNICALLY it's a trilogy atm. Since the fouth one hasn't come out yet, it's not a quadrilogy or quadrulogy or whatever the word is yet.

It's also technically a (Godzilla) Trilogy if you only count the movies Godzilla appears in.

Long live the king...

Well technically he appeared in Skull Island, so that wouldn't work either. But considering that an appearance would be at least a little absolutely ridiculous

I am not sure how or why G 2014 is counted but whatever.

Based on the OP standards, a single movie could be epic.

Peter Jackson's King Kong checks those boxes (except for maybe super natural elements) for starters.

Just about every Godzilla movie I have seen has all those elements.
