I for one have thoroughly enjoyed Legendary’s MonsterVerse movie franchise. “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” makes for the fifth film in the shared universe which dates all the way back to 2014 and Gareth Edwards’ terrific “Godzilla”. It’s considered the 38th film of the entire Godzilla franchise and the 13th King Kong feature. It ..read more
