Trump. (Give it time.) The 2021 movie Godzilla vs. Kong represents the first of these massive, dedicated kaiju face-offs from Hollywood, serving as a direct sequel to 2017's Kong: Skull Island and 2019's Godzilla: King of the Monsters. The hopelessly ridiculous plot of the 2021 follow-up proposes that there is a hollow area within the planet, literally called "Hollow Earth" and not yet claimed by the rich as a tax haven, from which the monstrous beasts in these franchises come from. Meanwhile, evil corporate and military interests are using mysterious technologies unsanctioned by Elon Musk to build and control giant fake monsters. Not only do audiences get to see the oddly proportioned battles between the two titular beasts, but an appearance by the uber-silly Mechagodzilla against both of them is another attraction. Forget for a moment these creatures have almost zero personality, even Kong, and that void of depth extends to the human characters that carry over into this flick. Ultimately, the film is another excuse to show the cause of extensive but likely unsuccessful property insurance claims, as usual. Despite the general stupidity of the concept and its execution, audiences propelled Godzilla vs. Kong to mammoth earnings both in cinemas and via streaming. Director Adam Wingard, who had composed the music for a few of his prior films, had clear misgivings about the connection between his film and those prior in the concept, deciding that the famous musical themes by Akira Ifukube and others for these characters would not be appropriate. "I knew it would be controversial on one hand because the original themes have been kind of revived but, on the other hand, I wanted this to stand on its own legs," Wingard said. "I wanted to embrace the MonsterVerse version of the character." This MonsterVerse started with 2014's Godzilla, and it has to be lamented that each entry since then has featured a different composer's work.
