GODZILLA x KONG: The New Empire

Looks like more of the same as the previous film which IMO is in no way a bad thing. I've actually really enjoyed all the Monsterverse films and GvK was a great spectacle and loads of fun. The only thing I'm hesitant of is if all of this is set in the "world underneath" (I forget if it has a name) and not above ground, it might lose the sense of scale. Looks like the exact opposite of Minue One which at least gives fans options. I do have questions/thoughts though:
- Why is big G glowing pink now (is he in his Barbie era?)
- I do love that they've been slowly aging Kong since the first film, although I hope he's now in his "Silverback" phase and they're not trying to say he's old. Don't apes live a similar sort of length of time as humans, meaning he shouldn't be the Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon of the franchise already
- They've given away a lot in the trailer already, I hope they're keeping some surprises back

My only question is how are you supposed to say this new style of films with X in the title? Why isn’t vs as in versus.
Is it Godzilla ‘cross’ Kong? Godzilla & kong? Or is it literally the letter x pronounced as such. I find it stupid and feel stupid saying it if that is the case.
It’s not ‘Vs’ because it’s a collab, they’re working together. Is it Godzilla ‘cross’ Kong? Godzilla & kong? Or is it literally the letter x pronounced as such. I find it stupid and feel stupid saying it if that is the case.
You’re supposed to say “Godzilla ‘ex’ Kong”.

You leave the "X" out, so just say "Gozilla Kong". Is it Godzilla ‘cross’ Kong? Godzilla & kong? Or is it literally the letter x pronounced as such. I find it stupid and feel stupid saying it if that is the case.
Apparently.

Has anyone watched this?
Just watched it tonight, was looking forward to it but what a mess! I think they need to go back to basics with Kong, all these super powers and transformers rubbish are really diluting the character.
Yeah saw it on release and agreed with you. A step down from GvK IMO. It did massive numbers though so there will be more I'm sure. Just watched it tonight, was looking forward to it but what a mess!
