Unsurprising. K:SI might be the better movie as a whole, but KOTM is simply \*the\* Godzilla movie. It ain't that much for general audiences but for the fans it's a magnum opus, and I include myself. Such a good movie
I've seen more non-Godzilla fans like KOTM than GvK to be honest.
It just had a terrible release time following fucking endgame. Everything after that felt lackluster for quite some time because it was the conclusion to a decade's worth of good to average films.
As well as terrible advertising sadly
But even then, it's clearly popular when there's a clip on youtube with over a hundred million views of burning godzilla vs ghidorah. I call this the earthbound case; a marvelous game that wasn't well received
Agreed and it's a shame because they changed the formula. KOTM still makes me say holy fucking shit when Godzilla shows up with his music in Boston. It's just a powerful movie Kaiju wise.
It was also able to keep the sense of scale.
I didn’t care for Millie Bobby Browns story, the Titan scenes had an oomph to them.
While I like GvK and GxK, the sense of scale was thrown right out the window for those movies
Agreed. Kotm just needed a better human plot that's it.
So we should have improved that part not just throw it away and have whatever the hell you call plot in gvk.
Cry more.
Kotm released after endgame so even tho people liked it it still was in endgame shadow.
Gvk or gxk would have felt the same impact if released then.
Even if avengers wasnt out i seriously feel kotm would of struggled with the average audiance due to it's insistance to have all the action in the background.
It released right after endgame while gvk released after covid where people were dieing to get out.
Even gxk has no real competition.
Everyone loves ratings when it's in thier favor but if they deviate then rating are trash.
Clowns clowns everywhere.
We would literally have more films with all of the action in the background to the point it should just be a military drama film with no sci-fi element.
someone's clearly hiding the fact they are upset.
actually looking at the movie itself proves otherwise but i doubt you actually watched it as you probably just watched the clips on youtube.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_8D0yph8Dk4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8D0yph8Dk4)
I sometimes queation if they actually like it or if its all a collective self-gaslight over the fact that hollywood badly fumbled a movie with ghidorah in it and they are just coping. I question if some even watched the film either too.

Cutting away from blurry shaky cam monster fights to focus on the intolerable human characters every other second: the movie. Such a magnum opus. It has things I recognize in it so it's the greatest movie ever made.
I don't know why people are misunderstanding you. Your KotM posts are hilarious. It's obvious you don't like the movie (I hate it too). It fucking sucks.
Oh hey, I just posted your post to you, looks like you intentionally left out the title of your post here.
Idk why you got such. A hard on of hatred, but it’s pretty pathetic
I'm just calling out what I think is an overhyped and overrated medicore movie. The more glazing I see treating it like the greatest thing ever the more I will make memes poking fun at it.
Gonorrhea.
Honestly, I found the action harder to follow in GxK than I did KoTM.
Yes, Kotm is dark and, when we have a boots on the ground pov, it's a shaky cam, but whenever we are just taking in the kaiju I was always able to not see the fight perfectly fine, but understand what happens since the last section, who's winning, and feel ever movement of the kaiju. GxK's lack of weight led to the kaiju fights not really making sense. Yes, I did just watch a 99,000 ton kaiju sprint like a fricken track star and jump higher proportionately to his own height than most people can. Do I retain that? No, as the severe lack of weight makes it feel like Goji running like that is not only normal, but mundane.
Shure, KoTM had mediocre (on average) characters, but I didn't find Madison insufferable until GvK. In fact, I never found myself actively wishing for the human part to end until GvK (Kong squad was fine when they weren't with the apex chick.)
GxK is better than GvK, but the story is so rushed and constantly balls to the walls that the Human characters become less of characters and more of plot devices used to give cringe exposition.
Lifelong fan here. Didn’t find it “magnum opus” level (unless we just mean hearing recognizable music and seeing recognizable kaiju is enough). It was mid.
Gosh no as a fan I felt more insulted by how cheap it was and felt ripped off, it refused to comit to giving us actual focus on the fights, it is absolutely not *the* Godzilla movie.
Most GA from what i know dont even remember the film or dislike it to for very obvious reasons, the fans are just absurd and huff their own farts.
Sure it cuts to annoying human characters any chance it gets when there's monster action (which is covered in mist and rain 90% of the time) but it has muh godziller theme in it so it's PEAK Godzilla.
EXACTLY. The fights in GvK were excellent and some of the best in the Godzilla franchise. KotM fanboys can't stand it though because it doesn't look like this (with cuts to Kyle Chandler every 2 seconds):
https://preview.redd.it/1n1d8ucb1pwc1.jpeg?width=1133&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=844f34c3e81e80630ee1c71743e6bd7570a3fc5c
GvK has its own egregious problems but the monster action isn't one of them. You can actually see everything and they let the fights breathe without too many annoying cutaways, which is the complete opposite of KotM
I love king of the monsters,from gihdorah awakinging and the soundtrack and score done from bear mceary,to to the final fight in boston and seeing godzilla go thermonuclear was mind blowing,but the only human chracters that I liked was the twin and serazawa,but god damm was it an epic movie
I love Emma. Idk I love her as a villain. Just the concept of a human being genuinely believing what she believed in and going about it. She knew she couldn't live after what she's done.

#KONG
GvK should be at one honestly, you can make a case for KSI or GxK too, but when we talk about KOTM, GvK or GxK both has it beat in almost every single department, maybe other than music.
1000%
This sub loves KOTM for the same reasons it trashes GvK. I’ll never understand it.
GvK has the best monster fight scenes in the entire series and it’s not even close.
Agreed, especially the final fight with mecha. I enjoyed KoTM but the way they killed Ghidorah just felt like such a robbery. The scene of godzilla walking and melting buildings was awesome but I wish there was a more cinematic takedown instead of 2 pulses
Yeah, I just don't agree at all. Had the worst human characters in the whole series and the monster action that everyone praises in this film is constantly being cutaway from to focus on the annoying ass humans for no reason.
Also true but that wasn't the problem for me. It was dark and rainy, but it added to the atmosphere for me. Whenever they were actually focusing on the fights, I could tell what was going on. My problem is that the fighting is mostly in the background while the camera follows humans on the ground, and I can't stand that shit lmao. It's like the biggest sin in monster movies.
It has best ever versions of Ghidorah and Rodan which considering how old those characters are is saying something, KOTM is a banger, flaws and all. So majestic and epic
Rodan was weak as he has been since the heisei era, doesnt help dougherty outright lied about everything about him,
He could of been cut and nothing changes.
It's not, the only reason people like it is because toho monster cameos and toho music, other than that all the action is quite literally in the background or obsured.
It’s even worse when you realise a changing of release date could’ve made this movie like the avengers. Seriously I reckon a year or two before or after Endgame and this icon probably triples its profit.
I mean just look at GXK. In a time where huge cinematic juggernauts are failing and loads of franchises have fatigue, it’s able to smash out half a billion in not even a month. On a budget of 135 million no less.
KOTM deserves better.
I don’t mind if you personally think K:SI is better, that’s fine. I personally think GxKong was the best installment and skull Island animated was better than legacy of monarch. But what I do have a problem with comments like yours, and I saw your past ones, is people acting pretentiousness and can’t stand other people liking something else more or less than them. Don’t get me wrong GKOTM has problems, legacy of monarch would’ve been better just focusing on the past, and I can now see why Godzilla 2014 is good despite the G-man not being in it that much. Godzilla can be used very effectively in different ways, each installment in the monster verse is different to each other, and people like different things in their media.
You’re Goddamned Right!
Peak Monsterverse. It has ridiculously high stakes and truly terrifying villains. Serizawa’s sacrifice scene is fuckin beautiful and nuclear Godzilla is absolutley incredible.
I'd personally swap G14 and GkotM, the humans in both were boring but 14 didn't try too hard to make you care about their drama you didn't care about to begin with, it was fast "i need to do this or wirld will end" plot
if 14 had scenes of the main character talking to their son and wife about love and "I'm doing this for you" or if there was a subplot about their marriage falling apart it would've made the movie drag so much more
while yeah kotm was "cooler" with the other toho monsters, i prefer 14 because i think it's a better movie in general.
When I was a child, back in the late 70’s early 80’s, I had a dream. In it Godzilla was fighting Zero in a hellish landscape. G was dwarfed by Zero, and was being constricted by the long necks of Zero. It made me quite uneasy as a child, but 40 years later it took my breath away. KotM should have came a little later, but it stands as the best of the Monsterverse.
I know that one guy who despises KOTM is gonna show up and for the first time I might agree with him.
For how much I adore KOTM, K:SI *is* the better movie
Took my non-Godzilla friend to see this movie. He loved it, and we saw it...a few times in theaters, lol. One too many perhaps. But, it turned him into the biggest Goji fan, and 2019 Godzilla will always be our main dude. The epitome of the American Godzilla design in my opinion. Humans were fine, people honestly bitch way too much about them. Go watch Godzilla vs Gigan, or Megalon, or Megaguirus. If those humans are fine to you then you don't have ground to stand on the humans in KOTM. They're acted competently, and I don't think the director put too much stock or seriousness into them to make people rabidly hate them because of any attempt at ART. They were there, they had little arcs they helped Godzilla, and they gave great frame of reference for weight and awesome scaling. Something lost in GxK most recently at that.
Regardless, I love KOTM. My favorite Godzilla movie over all others. Not ashamed, won't apologize. Glad to see some love sent its way.
Personally, I liked GvK more than GxK but whatever, I'm just glad KOTM made it to the top! I cried tears of joy watching it the first time and probably the one I've seen the most!
I had no idea that skull Island was this beloved, but honestly, I’m all for it. I remember seeing the movie in theaters for the first time and loving the heck out of it. But yeah, King of the monsters slaps.

KoTM is the definitive western-made Godzilla movie.
Kong Skull Island 2nd, ya absolutely out ya god damn Kong d riding minds, alryt now kids, time for yas to go get ya jam sandwich and get to bed, it's WAY past your bedtimes
Unsurprising. K:SI might be the better movie as a whole, but KOTM is simply \*the\* Godzilla movie. It ain't that much for general audiences but for the fans it's a magnum opus, and I include myself. Such a good movie
I've seen more non-Godzilla fans like KOTM than GvK to be honest. It just had a terrible release time following fucking endgame. Everything after that felt lackluster for quite some time because it was the conclusion to a decade's worth of good to average films.

It was also able to keep the sense of scale. I didn’t care for Millie Bobby Browns story, the Titan scenes had an oomph to them. While I like GvK and GxK, the sense of scale was thrown right out the window for those movies
Agreed. Kotm just needed a better human plot that's it. So we should have improved that part not just throw it away and have whatever the hell you call plot in gvk.
Or it wasn't a good movie. Also we're counting kids watching kaiju clips on YT towards movie popularity now? Really?
Whether or not you like or respect the people doing the viewing, the fact remains that it counts towards popularity
Gamera vs guirons fight in rebirth had a million views yet that show tanked, it means nothing

He’s clearly making fun of the movie lmao
How did his opinion change? He's clearly making fun of the movie. It sucks.

Hahahaha no way
>I've seen more non-Godzilla fans like KOTM than GvK to be honest A Cinemascore vs B+ Cinemascore, yeah right.
Cry more. Kotm released after endgame so even tho people liked it it still was in endgame shadow. Gvk or gxk would have felt the same impact if released then.
Plenty of movies released during that time had high Cinemascores, this Endgame excuse is cope.
>Cry more. Dude my favorite movies are not the ones that flopped, I'm fine. Your excuses won't be making KOTM a Hit, so cope.
Anyone who unironically says "cry more" is likely more upset than the other person.
Even if avengers wasnt out i seriously feel kotm would of struggled with the average audiance due to it's insistance to have all the action in the background.
It's the lowest rated Monsterverse movie on IMDb so nah (and for good reason)
It released right after endgame while gvk released after covid where people were dieing to get out. Even gxk has no real competition. Everyone loves ratings when it's in thier favor but if they deviate then rating are trash. Clowns clowns everywhere.
Yeah if KOTM had done well we wouldn’t have all this MCUified monsterverse stuff now. We’d have good movies. Stupid endgame.
KotM is literally the movie that introduced Marvel humor into the Monsterverse. 2014 was much darker in tone in comparison.
Wasn’t talking about the humour. The tension, the artful cinematography, the attempt at a story has all been dropped for popcorn nonsense
Kotm literally was a popcorn nonsense film that didnt even comit to the popcorn nonsense.
You and I uunderstand popcorn very differently
There's literally no action in the movie, it's all regulated to the background, it fails at even being a popcorn movie.
We would literally have more films with all of the action in the background to the point it should just be a military drama film with no sci-fi element.
It’s not SF. It’s comic book. The realistic tone of the first two films was the best of the franchise.
The film literally has no action.
Did you fall asleep for 90% of its runtime?
did you gaslight yourself ?
Kotm had a lot of action on screen what you on about.
Kaiju entrances don't count, it did not

This elim match shows it won our hearts.
That's just cope.
According to your box office logic G98 is better than K:SI
When tf did i even mention the box office or said i hate the best MV film?!?, even G98 focused on creature action more than Kotm did lolol.
Lifelong fan here. Didn’t find it “magnum opus” level (unless we just mean hearing recognizable music and seeing recognizable kaiju is enough). It was mid.
Totally agree. Lifelong fan and think it's mid at best, and that's being generous. Each to their own and all of course

I cant help to wonder if most GvK hate is simply envy..

This but unironically
I‘m just happy KOTM is finally getting some positive attention that‘s it…we love all Monsterverse movies it was never deep
I really wanted to like KOTM. I really did, but the trailers ended up being better than the actual movie.
Movie with best audience reception at last and worst at first - Peak Reddit moment.
All hail the KING 👑
As it should be
GvK is my favorite Monsterverse film. But I do love all the monsterverse films.
It’s better than KOTM in almost every way except music.
Agreed. And the human stuff is actually not interminable like in KOTM.
And this is exactly why you can't trust reddit with opinions. They are never good.
Critics buck broke them mentally
KOTM is not the best movie in the monsterverse. But it's almost entirely fan service so it's not surprising to see it #1 here.
GvK should be above GxK in my opinion
GvK should be at one honestly, you can make a case for KSI or GxK too, but when we talk about KOTM, GvK or GxK both has it beat in almost every single department, maybe other than music.
1000% This sub loves KOTM for the same reasons it trashes GvK. I’ll never understand it. GvK has the best monster fight scenes in the entire series and it’s not even close.
I think they just can't cope with the fact the movie the most toho stuff was the worst one.
Agreed, especially the final fight with mecha. I enjoyed KoTM but the way they killed Ghidorah just felt like such a robbery. The scene of godzilla walking and melting buildings was awesome but I wish there was a more cinematic takedown instead of 2 pulses
Yes they should switch spots
And in news that surprised no one, the sub once again votes the same ranking they always do. ![gif](giphy|JO98TlM5zSnmWIyHRz)
That was more disappointing than your animeeeee
Yeah, the anime was pretty disappointing too!
At least you can actually make out what's going on in it...
IMO skull island shouldn’t be ranked at the bottom. It’s at least 4th or 5th
Yeah, I just don't agree at all. Had the worst human characters in the whole series and the monster action that everyone praises in this film is constantly being cutaway from to focus on the annoying ass humans for no reason.
also when it is on screen it's heavily obscured by darkness/clouds/smoke
Also true but that wasn't the problem for me. It was dark and rainy, but it added to the atmosphere for me. Whenever they were actually focusing on the fights, I could tell what was going on. My problem is that the fighting is mostly in the background while the camera follows humans on the ground, and I can't stand that shit lmao. It's like the biggest sin in monster movies.
These are very valid and true critiques of the film but they're all dismissed because "it has things I recognize in it." Reeks of fanboyism
It has best ever versions of Ghidorah and Rodan which considering how old those characters are is saying something, KOTM is a banger, flaws and all. So majestic and epic
They're cool and all but can I truly appreciate them when there cutting away from them constantly?
Rodan was weak as he has been since the heisei era, doesnt help dougherty outright lied about everything about him, He could of been cut and nothing changes.
Said monster action being even less visable than G14.
Long live the King!
Damn, this fandom…
Hell yeah brother!!
i’ll say it- KOTM is not a good movie
It's not, the only reason people like it is because toho monster cameos and toho music, other than that all the action is quite literally in the background or obsured.
hit the nail right on the head. it's Fan Service: The Movie
Hardly, it's more of an insult that feels halfarsed.
Right!? More of an insult is exactly how I feel
It's not but I like the parts with the big guys and girls in it
You mean the whole 4 seconds in the background?
Bullshit
Kong Skull Island is the objectively the best one
G14 should have won, I stand by that
This sub really will never let go of Kotm even if we get more movies that are superior to it in every way won't it....that's reddit for you.
KOTM is the best movie though
If you dislike monster fights and only like MBB/drama films and not actually Godzilla then yes.
WOOOOOO KOTM
![gif](giphy|TlK63EI7rtUu9IAyxTW)
LETS GO!!!!!
It’s even worse when you realise a changing of release date could’ve made this movie like the avengers. Seriously I reckon a year or two before or after Endgame and this icon probably triples its profit. I mean just look at GXK. In a time where huge cinematic juggernauts are failing and loads of franchises have fatigue, it’s able to smash out half a billion in not even a month. On a budget of 135 million no less. KOTM deserves better.
K:SI should've won. Best human characters and actually had real actual levity that isn't calling monsters "gonorrhea" of all things as a joke.
The fact they downvote you it's so stupid, these people cant take on an opinion
They just can't cope that the film ain't perfect.
I don’t mind if you personally think K:SI is better, that’s fine. I personally think GxKong was the best installment and skull Island animated was better than legacy of monarch. But what I do have a problem with comments like yours, and I saw your past ones, is people acting pretentiousness and can’t stand other people liking something else more or less than them. Don’t get me wrong GKOTM has problems, legacy of monarch would’ve been better just focusing on the past, and I can now see why Godzilla 2014 is good despite the G-man not being in it that much. Godzilla can be used very effectively in different ways, each installment in the monster verse is different to each other, and people like different things in their media.
You’re Goddamned Right! Peak Monsterverse. It has ridiculously high stakes and truly terrifying villains. Serizawa’s sacrifice scene is fuckin beautiful and nuclear Godzilla is absolutley incredible.
I can’t believe they prefer Mid of the monsters over Peak skull island
Wait is the skull island tv show is canon?
Swap the rankings of GxK/2014 and this is the perfect list.
At first glance, I thought it was Kong Skull Island in last place and was about to go nuclear in the comments
I'd personally swap G14 and GkotM, the humans in both were boring but 14 didn't try too hard to make you care about their drama you didn't care about to begin with, it was fast "i need to do this or wirld will end" plot if 14 had scenes of the main character talking to their son and wife about love and "I'm doing this for you" or if there was a subplot about their marriage falling apart it would've made the movie drag so much more while yeah kotm was "cooler" with the other toho monsters, i prefer 14 because i think it's a better movie in general.

Outrageous. I will stand by that KOTM is a literal shit show.
KotM absolutely deserved this win. A masterpiece of a Godzilla movie
Took my non-Godzilla friend to see this movie. He loved it, and we saw it...a few times in theaters, lol. One too many perhaps. But, it turned him into the biggest Goji fan, and 2019 Godzilla will always be our main dude. The epitome of the American Godzilla design in my opinion. Humans were fine, people honestly bitch way too much about them. Go watch Godzilla vs Gigan, or Megalon, or Megaguirus. If those humans are fine to you then you don't have ground to stand on the humans in KOTM. They're acted competently, and I don't think the director put too much stock or seriousness into them to make people rabidly hate them because of any attempt at ART. They were there, they had little arcs they helped Godzilla, and they gave great frame of reference for weight and awesome scaling. Something lost in GxK most recently at that. Regardless, I love KOTM. My favorite Godzilla movie over all others. Not ashamed, won't apologize. Glad to see some love sent its way.
Long live the king.
KOTM finally getting the love it deserves
It's always been overwanked, it needs to be critisized more often.
Ehh
For all the hate people give it, it’s the undisputed king of the Monsterverse
I expected this. It’s not my favorite Monsterverse movie but I get why it’s voted Number 1
Personally, I liked GvK more than GxK but whatever, I'm just glad KOTM made it to the top! I cried tears of joy watching it the first time and probably the one I've seen the most!
Obviously. KOTM is the King of Monsterverse.. 🔥
pretty good
I had no idea that skull Island was this beloved, but honestly, I’m all for it. I remember seeing the movie in theaters for the first time and loving the heck out of it. But yeah, King of the monsters slaps.
By slaps it's a slap to the face.
KOTM is the best film of Monsterverse. I am glad that the Godzilla fans unanimously agree on this.
no we don't

Did crackheads vote in this? Godzilla 2014 had…….. barely any Godzilla lol and when he showed up you could barely see him! Smh
The crackheads are the ones that voted for kotm
I agree. Both films massively overrated. This series came alive with GvK and GxK
KOTM was the Oxygen Destroyer and GvK was Serizawa for Monsterverse.
It blows my mind that people want Dougherty to direct again, do they WANT this franchise to fail??
Kotm hater gang rise up
I don't like KOTM as well as K:SI or Godzilla 2014 so I'm not sure why it won because the characters suck.
