![]() ![]() ![]() Kong in March is a way to prevent what otherwise would have been a four-month drought between Wonder Woman 1984 and Mortal Kombat. Moreover, to the extent that more folks will sign up for a biggie like Wonder Woman 1984 than for Tom & Jerry or The Little Things, giving us Godzilla Vs. Granted, most failed sequels don’t spawn big-budget threequels in the first place, and I cannot imagine this film (likely to be the last in this franchise) would still have been made had it not already been in production when King of the Monsters fumbled in May of 2019.īut since theaters aren’t necessarily the main variable this time around, specifically in North America, it only has to look interesting enough to get folks to A) pay $15 to subscribe to HBO Max, B) make the effort to activate their existing HBO Max subscriptions or C) not cancel their ongoing HBO Max membership. As I noted on Friday, there are very few if any franchises that survived an outright flop sequel ( King of the Monsters grossed $387 million on a $180 million budget) to roar back to life with the third installment. In normal times, I would discuss whether general audiences were more excited about Godzilla fighting King Kong versus Godzilla fighting King Ghidorah. ![]()
