2014’s Godzilla got the ball rolling with the first truly great American movie featuring the kaiju behemoth–sorry, Godzilla 1998–and the story continued in Godzilla: King of the Monsters when the Big G established himself as the planet’s apex predator. Meanwhile, Kong: Skull Island brought the ape wonder of the world back to the big screen after a lengthy absence, making the return of Kong a slick Vietnam War-era experience with outstanding cinematography.
Eventually, the two titans would clash in Godzilla vs. Kong, a movie that did not disappoint with its premise and had a few surprises up its sleeve as well. Finally, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire released in theaters in March and was a huge success, pulling in over $570 million worldwide. The New Empire is the fifth-highest-grossing movie of the year.
While Kong and Godzilla are still best of frenemies in The New Empire, new threats to the planet force them to work together as they set aside their grudge for the greater good. Also, Godzilla suplexes Kong into one of the Giza pyramids and that alone makes it worth watching.
Upcoming Godzilla Blu-rays
It’s worth noting that Walmart is getting a new, exclusive steelbook edition of The New Empire. It’s available to preorder now for $35 ahead of its December 3 release. Meanwhile, Godzilla Minus One, the latest Japanese film starring the legendary kaiju, is releasing on 4K Blu-ray on November 19. The limited edition with a steelbook case is sold out, but you can save on Godzilla Minus One’s standard 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray combo pack at Amazon.
