Godzilla Vs. Kong Video Releases Full Info & Details

5/12/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
There has been a number of websites and social media pages posting details on the Godzilla Vs. Kong video releases, some of this info is incorrect or unknown at this point, this post is to correct those "rumors" and such.

Best Buy - there are four versions listed 4K Blu-ray Steelbook (BB exclusive), 4K Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD, none have images to go along with them so any images attached by others at this point is purely a guess. The 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD most likely will feature the same artwork as other till the images show up on the Best Buy website it is not official. Update images have been added to the Best Buy website, all are the same as others, Steelbook image is at bottom of this article.

Amazon US - there are five listings three are the same as Best Buy 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD, the other two are Prime Video (digital), and a three pack including Godzilla Vs. Kong, Godzilla: King Of The Monsters, and Kong: Skull Island, which are all Blu-ray discs. These do all have pics of the front and back of the packages and do appear to be accurate.

Target/Walmart - their releases are the same as Amazon minus the Prime video version, same artwork as Amazon is listed (of note with Walmart, there may not be a DVD version as it did not show up on there site).

Amazon UK - the listings there are basically the same as the US site with the one exception an Amazon Steelbook exclusive which does say region free (and therefore could be the same as Best Buy but again it is not guaranteed).

Warner Bros. Shop UK -  there versions feature different artwork but are otherwise the same, it is unclear if their US shop will have these.

Others - there are other sites listing most of the same except the Steelbooks, but there are listings for a four film set that includes Godzilla 2014. Both Zavvi/HMV and Amazon India (oddly) have this set.

As for the Best Buy Steelbook there is an low-res image floating around but it has come from third party sources and is not official.

Release date for the US releases is June 15th, UK June 14th, digital May 21st.
Special Features:
Kong Discovers Hollow Earth
Kong Leaves Home
Behold Kong’s Temple
The Evolution of Kong, Eighth Wonder of the World

Godzilla Vs. Kong Marketing Kicks Off With A Bang

1/22/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
As we know now that Warner Bros. and Legendary have worked out their issues over the release of Godzilla Vs. Kong and given the film a new release date, so the film's marketing has kicked into high gear. We had a couple of teasers previously, the roar clip, and the punch (HBO Max clip), now three more teaser clips have hit. One feature Madison (Millie Bobby Brown), a quick glimpse of Godzilla and Kong on the carrier, as well as Kong with the axe from the toy line, which leads to a whole host of questions. The second features a longer shot of Kong on the carrier with a voice over and Godzilla emerging from the water toward Kong. A third clip, that does not appear to have a high quality version floating around, appears  to show someone holding a crudely made "toy" presented to Kong, the interesting part with this one is Kong does not appear to be full grown in the shot (more Skull Island sized). Also released was a poster, banner, wallpaper (from Legendary's Chinese page), and concept art. Also the Monarch Sciences website has been updated with a "warning" of the impending battle. Check them all out below and above.

Can Godzilla Vs. Kong Turn The Kaiju Sequel Jinx Around

8/20/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
When you look at the box office for Godzilla: King Of The Monsters you quickly realize it won't make as much as Godzilla 2014, whether or not it is considered a success is a matter of opinion. But when you start looking at many sequels in this genre, or even in other genres, is what could be called the sequel or sophomore jinx, that occurs.

Pacific Rim, the film that started the current kaiju trend, made $411 million, Pacific Rim Uprising approx $291 million, a significant drop, Godzilla 2014 made $529 million, Godzilla: KOTM will finish under $400 million (currently $386 million approx.), other big drop. This trend isn't just the recent films King Kong 1933 did quite well but its sequel Son Of Kong didn't do as well, the 1976 remake also did relatively well but its sequel King Kong Lives bombed, more recently Cloverfield did well but its first sequel had a drop at the box office and second sequel was shifted to Netflix. Even looking at the Jurassic Park/World franchise each film has done less than the previous film in each part of that series (Park separate from World films).

In the case of Godzilla Vs. Kong we are technically getting the third Godzilla and second Kong film together, could that combo be enough to buck the trend. While not all sequels have had the same pattern the monster or creature genre seems to have it be more the case, it is a possibility this is why we have not gotten a more definitive word on sequels to other films like Rampage, The Meg, etc. even though they were successful films.

There are many reasons why this can be happening like, the shock/awe valve and curiosity  are there in the first film but isn't as much in the sequel. Also many sequels become more story focused and look at the continuing story arc going forward which may loose some, there is also issues because they aren't as interested in the human characters or character/monster development (they want monsters to be monsters for example), it's a delicate balance and it's hard to truly satisfy the audience as a whole, especially non fans of the genre.

Another more modern problem can be reviews, curiosity even with not such great or bad reviews will still allow a new film to do well but that curiosity isn't there in the same way so bad reviews weight a lot more on a sequel. There can also be a lot of dissecting of films now which with all of the special effects, story details, and such that they can can get hurt by being over analyzed.

The big questions for Monsterverse fans is how will Godzilla Vs. Kong do and will the Monsterverse continue. The first question may be helped by the nostalgia, since many fans, serious and casual, have been looking for a rematch since 1962, another thing is Kong was slightly better reviewed and received which may help. On the flip side questions of Kong's size and how he will match Godzilla may and have caused concern, yes he was growing but it has been a source of jokes since his film was released.

Warner Bros. and Legendary have done a lot to try and built to it and build the Monsterverse into something so hopefully that pays off and helps, but the poor showing of Godzilla: KOTM may have hurt mainstream interest. Toho will certainly be watching, a big box office and the Monsterverse continues, a poor showing and Toho may decide to do their own thing (which could happen anyway) and the Monsterverse may end. 

We hope it does well as we look forward to where the Monsterverse will go and its continued development. In the end no matter what happens we personal are happy overall with what we got and hope fans are too.
