A hurdle that long-running genre series encounter is a diminishing lack of awe.

Godzillas stomped into this, too, as the MonsterVerse shows.

His co-agent Duvall, though, has other ideas.

You stuck your noses in shit you dont understand.

You are goddamn lucky to be alive, he says, and Duvall appreciates the tough-love act.

Shaw, however, does not get a furlough from Monarch custody.

Smartest people on the planet had 60 years to prepare for G-Day.

Thats the best they could come up with?

Shaw says, throwing Ken Watanabes much-memed declaration from the 2014Godzillain Monarchs face.

What if Godzilla had lost?

When Caroline reacts poorly to the blunt news that her husband was having an affair, Cates further incensed.

The scenes in the days immediately leading up to Godzilla and the MUTOs destructive brawl are pretty chilling.

She once thought like that and looked what happened.

Cate has personal drama on top of the giant monsters.

The morning before G-Day, she woke up in bed with another woman.

You just dont want good.

The only way out is through, May says.

Upon getting out of the ruins of San Francisco (just in time), everyones feeling pretty good.

Cate got some stuff out of her system.

(Is Caroline a little thrown when Cate says they think Hiroshi is still alive?

Heres hoping they can have an awkward conversation later.)

Kentaro is feeling good for the first time since Hiroshi disappeared, and he decides to call his mom.

May, however, is done.

She slinks away and calls Duvall.

Shes not uncovering her familys legacy (of monsters) and she has no drive to find Hiroshi.

She wants to go home, and shell do whatever Monarch asks of her to make that happen.

Well go back to the legacy of monsters next week.

This was a fantastic example of what destruction Godzilla and his ilk truly leave behind.

Up From the Depths

He should be 90.

How does he look like that?

Theres rumors of a mission gone bad, but its classified.

Once more,Monarchacknowledges that Kurt Russell should not be old enough to play Shaw.

The trailer forGodzilla x Kong: The New Empirecame out this weekend.

Looks pretty dumb and pretty bad!

Ill be there on opening night.
