Summary

AfterGodzilla x Kong : The New Empire , I ’m even more eager for a Godzilla - Rodan team - up in the Monsterverse . After Rodan bow down to Godzilla at the end ofGodzilla : King of the Monsters , I was affirmative that the King of the Skies would make a second appearance in the Monsterverse . The windup scene for sure hinted at that possible action , but the subsequent Monsterverse entrance have avoided that scenario entirely . But while it may seem like Rodan has been exit behind , Godzilla x Kong’sendinggave me a Modern reason to go for for his paying back .

I ’m not certain what Legendary has in stock for Rodan , but what I do know is that aGodzilla x Kongsequel is happening . The New Empiredidn’t extend any verbatim setup for another installment , but it did lay the groundwork for Godzilla and Kong to count Shimo and Mothra as ally in whatever their next fight is . Assuming that the motion-picture show follows the blueprint of most sequels , it will endeavor to retrieve a way to up the ante in terminus of the menace Godzilla and Kong are confront . That ’s why I opine Shimo and Mothra wo n’t be the only ones fighting beside them . And if there ’s another Titan on their side , I really desire it to be Rodan .

Godzilla x Kong : The New Empire bring out a whole bunch of Modern Titans in the MonsterVerse , with raw allies and rival for Kong and Godzilla to face .

Rodan in Godzilla King of the Monsters

Rodan Would Be A Great Counterpart To Shimo In The Monsterverse

Rodan Would Bring Balance To Godzilla vs. Kong 3

Shimo ’s apparent part in the Monsterverse ’s future is a bad part of why I think Rodan ’s coming back would be a big move for the next film . At the end ofGodzilla x Kong , it was strongly imply that go forward , Shimo and Kong will be champion in the Monsterverse . ThroughShimo ’s ice powers , the Monsterverse could make an interesting contrast between Godzilla and Kong if the former farting up in an alignment with Rodan , a fiend recognise for his flaming abilities .

As freak that represent attack and ice severally , Rodan and Shimo are polar opposites of each otherin terms of what they make for to the table , and that ’s all the more reason for Godzilla to be paired with Rodan inGodzilla vs. Kong 3 . If Kong is going to have a partner in armed combat of his own , there ’ll be a demand for the Monsterverse to poise that out on Godzilla ’s side . Anguirus would be a bang-up pick for that as well , but Rodan ’s powers add something to the equating that Anguirus ca n’t . With Rodan , Godzilla will have the thoroughgoing counterpart to Shimo , which could make for an exciting tag end - team fight if another Godzilla - Kong rematch pass .

Godzilla, Rodan, Kong, & Shimo Would Be The Perfect Titan Team For Godzilla Vs. Kong 3

They Could Be The Strongest-Possible Team For Godzilla vs. Kong 3’s Heroes

With Rodan fill such a role in theGodzilla x Kongsequel , the Monsterverse would have the blueprint for a spectacular Titan foursome that I ’d love to see on the big screen . One reason why Godzilla and Kong make a great squad is how different they are from each other ; Godzilla is a weapon of pure , bare-assed power , whereas Kong ’s capabilities are less about brute military capability and are defined more by his nimbleness and intelligence . Having that compounding makes them a threat to any force in the Monsterverse , and the same conception easily applies to Rodan and Shimo .

With Rodan burning up their foes andShimo pelt them with her ice breath , the four Titans would have two drastically different weapons to unleash onGodzilla vs. Kong 3’svillains . Utilizing fire and ice in this style carries a ton of potential when it fare to creating impressive visuals during the movie ’s final scrap scene . I loved witness Godzilla , Mothra , and Kong working together inThe New Empire , but these four Titans teaming up - terminated with each of their unique abilities - could even be more exciting to watch . I aboveboard ca n’t imagine a stronger combining of four epic kaiju in Godzilla ’s universe .

The Monsterverse Already Has The Setup It Needs For Godzilla & Rodan To Team Up With Kong & Shimo

Rodan Can Easily Be Added To The Picture For Godzilla vs. Kong 3

With Godzilla having already made a minion out of Rodan inKing of the Monsters , the setup for Rodan joining Godzilla , Kong , and Shimo certainly does exist . When Rodan was last heard of , he was hibernating inside a vent near Fiji , and is presumably still there . That accounts for why he ’s not been around as of previous , but those lot could easily be changed by the Monsterverse ’s next threat . If Godzilla think he ca n’t plow it alone , he could call Rodan out of hibernation . pay that he previously recognize Godzilla as the alpha , he ’d be obliged to obey , thus paving the way for the distich to fight alongside Kong and Shimo in the film ’s conclusion .

A Godzilla Team-Up Is The Redemption The Monsterverse’s Rodan Needs

Godzilla & Rodan Are The Quintessential Kaiju Team-Up

As someone whose list of most - learn Godzilla movies includesInvasion of Astro MonsterandGhidorah , the Three - Headed Monster , I ’ve always been interested in the prospect of the Monsterverse ’s Godzilla enjoying a squad - up with Rodan . That not come to pass inGodzilla : King of the Monsterswas a bit of a dashing hopes , especially when considering his history . It ’s not just that he ’s a personal favorite ; he ’s also teamed up with Godzilla in four Toho moving picture , which is more than what can be aver forany other Godzilla friend , Mothra include .

Godzilla x Kong : The New Empireis usable to stream on Max .

It ’s with this in mind that I ’ve felt it necessary for Rodan to have a standardized human relationship with Godzilla in the Monsterverse . He did n’t get that inKing of the Monsters , which is made bad by the fact that both of his monster fights ended in losses . That can be rectified , however , if the next film pair off Godzilla and Rodan and lets them work as an effective tag team . It can even pay court to some of the team attacks they used on Ghidorah in the Showa era . After seeing Godzilla and Kong ’s use of teamwork inGodzilla x Kong : The New Empire , I have high-pitched Hope that the Monsterverse can and will do justice to Godzilla ’s greatest ally .
