The best thing the MonsterVerse has done is to unite two icons of cinema, Godzilla and Kong. Sure, 2014’s Godzilla and Kong Skull Island may have ranked higher on our list of the best MonsterVerse movies, but it was with Godzilla vs. Kong that the franchise found its secret weapon — a big ape and a big lizard begrudgingly teaming up. Since then, the MonsterVerse has given us grand entertainment that only an IP-obsessed Hollywood could provide, while also fitting right in with the weirdness and silliness of the Showa era of monster movies.
Alongside its stakes, the MonsterVerse has also grown in mythology, as it introduced the concept of Hollow Earth, a whole unique world with its own lore, locations, and characters. That being said, these movies aren’t exactly what you should watch if you want immediate answers to questions about lore of backstories — especially not about the Titans. After all, this is the franchise known for the line let them fight. So what about Godzilla and Kong? Do they have beef beyond just a cinematic obligation to fight? Well, kind of.
