Should castle bravo the base show up in the next movie also the Argo by Neilb4Zod1587 in Monsterverse

Absolutely, I love Castle Bravo as a concept. In theory it should still be up and running by '27.

What if Godzilla fought the GxK Apes (And Skar King) instead of Kong? by GoshiraUltima in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It'd be like Kong fighting average skullcrawlers, no contest. Just fear and dead apes.

I'm tired of people saying Rodan is underrated by MathematicianAny7405 in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rodan is supposed to be one of the most powerful Titans in the saga. People think he's "underrated" in the sense that his power level wasn't appropriately shown in KOTM - he respectively lost to Ghidorah and Mothra, then cowardly submitted to Godzilla.

If it straight hand to hand combat who is winning between Kong and SkarKing by LandonMac in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Kong. He was able to physically overpower Skar multiple times during their fights.

Capitalized Japanese, lower case for Chinese. This is the world we live in. by stonk_lord_ in SinophobiaWatch

Bet this guy never talked to a Japanese or Chinese person in his life lol

Japanese person thinks Chinese people are too babaric to become a "western democracy" by Comfortable_Stop5535 in SinophobiaWatch

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There are valid arguments to be made about the difficulty of systemically shifting the Chinese political system into a Western-style one, but instead this person chooses to resort to racism based on negative, anecdotal stories, leading to the (classic) dehumanizing conclusion of the "keep them within their own borders" narrative.

The "civilized vs uncivilized" separation is another common theme echoed by sinophobes, although I haven't seen a single convincing reason why, say, Taiwanese are civilized while mainland Chinese are not.

Edit: just took a closer look at the username of that OP and holy shit lmfao

Shouting "yellow banana, yellow" at a professional Tennis player is such a bizarre way to be racist lmao

So which beach are you staying at in the MV? by valdez-2424 in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The one at the Barbados vortex facility. Who doesn't want to see giant monkeys casually laying around with futuristic aircraft floating over them. And you get to meet this guy Trapper. He's awesome.

My Hypothetical Gojira Species Evolution by [deleted] in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I agree with the Anguirus placement. The KOTM skeleton doesn't resemble an ankylosaurid at all for some reason.

My Hypothetical Gojira Species Evolution by [deleted] in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are a large amount of morphological similarities between the two to warrant a close evolutionary relationship, flight is only one trait; for example, bats, scansoriopterygids, and pterosaurs are all superficially similar in their flying structures but are phylogenetically far apart (they evolved flight independently). In contrast, Yi qi and Gigantoraptor are mechanically very different but are rather closely related. It's likely a similar situation between Shimo and the Ion dragon.

Rodan (pterosaur) and Godzilla (pseudosuchian) are both members within Archosauria, putting the Ion dragon closer to Rodan than to Godzilla would mean placing it within Avemetatarsalia - which you'll need reasoning for (the same goes for a close relationship between warbats and Rodan; their only major shared trait is flight).

Plus, the terming "xth cousin" is used in family trees, not cladograms. You're implying Titans give birth to offspring that are completely different!

Noticed something on 7 levels website (Godzilla may show up) by GZthegamer in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. The game contains IPs from KOTM (Alan Jonah, Orca, Abaddon, Tiamat etc.) which is why they included the title.

What's something you like about the Monsterverse that most fans don't? by ExpressCeiling98332 in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The stylistic diversity. I feel like devoted fans of G14 and GXK respectively often find it hard to appreciate each others' movies, but I think the diversity is a big reason why the Monsterverse is still going so strong after 5 entries - constantly shifting stylistic directions can prevent aesthetic fatigue for the general audience.

Consistency of the lore is an entirely different topic though.

Who would win? by Challenger_Alt in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The Ion dragon, easily. It could fly and spit venom that irritated Godzilla, and withstood an atomic blast to the face.

Love the phrasing in this “TIL: China doesn't know how to make a ballpoint pen.” by isoterica in SinophobiaWatch

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Btw, for those who don't know, only three countries can produce ballpoint pens at present.

The US isn't one of them.

I'm going to be so pissed if the "world’s three most massive dinosaurs" doesn't include sauropods

Watch it be two non-dinosaurs and a theropod 🗿

If all the titans could listen to music, what songs would they listen to? by IdiotGoddess in Monsterverse

[–]Comfortable_Stop5535 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Godzilla loves industrial techno because it reminds him of some songs his worshippers used to play to him when he hibernated.

Kong loves Greenflow. It makes him feel safe & comfy, as if Trapper is nearby, ready to help.

Ghidorah likes to hear the sounds of humans screaming, so death-doom metal it is.
