I know that I’m wasting my time with this reply because you are so stubborn with your opinions, but I’ll do it anyways.

spin-off noun a byproduct or incidental result of a larger project. "the commercial spin-off from defense research" a product marketed by its association with a popular television program, movie, personality, etc. "spin-off merchandising" a subsidiary of a parent company that has been sold off, creating a new company. Kong Skull Island is not a spin-off because it doesn’t branch off of the Monsterverse. And my point was that the change was not really drastic at all. And my point about them distancing themselves from a bad movie still stands.

2. What I’m saying is that this movie doesn’t have to make sense. Physics are not the most important thing for a monster movie. And that wasn’t even my main point. What I was trying to get across was that if they made another 2014, they would be doomed from the start. The reason why this movie didn’t do that good in the American box office was because so many people were disappointed with this movie’s predecessor that they didn’t bother to see the sequel, as it would probably be just as bad as the last movie.

3. Aftershock explains the spine change. And the “breeding pairs” of monsters are not the mental effort that should’ve gone into making a sequel. The monsters survived the mass extinctions by doing what some animals do when the environment is less than favorable for them, they go into a long sleep called hibernation. Mind blowing, right? I would respond to these next two sentences about dinosaurs, if I could make out a coherent thought. Also, Godzilla, Kong, and Ghidorah are the only monsters that vie for supremacy.

4. I was unaware of Admiral Stenz’s death. But my point still stands. And the only two actors from 2014 that portrayed actual emotion are not returning for one reason or another. If anything, you should be exited about the new cast.

5. Are you saying that fans can’t make good sequels that have a bearing on the established universe? The director just made the movie more faithful to Godzilla’s roots, instead of being different for no reason. That is why the Godzilla anime trilogy was such a failure, because it alienated the fan base, while doing nothing with those differences. The differences from the last movie were because the last movie wasn’t that good of a Godzilla film.

6. It was established that Serizawa’s Bomb made Godzilla go into critical mass. And the anime being more grounded in reality than this only proves all of the missed opportunities of the anime trilogy. And while I do agree that burning Godzilla was a deus ex machina, there are so many deus ex machinas in Godzilla movies, that it isn’t really a movie specific problem. Venom has nothing to do with Godzilla anyways, because Godzilla will have to have been drained of atomic energy in order for him to die, or else his regeneration will heal him completely. Also, Godzilla is a lot stronger in this movie than he was in 2014. Also your next point doesn’t make sense because monsters are obviously not real animals.

Again, physics isn’t really important for monster movies. And this movie could’ve been the perfect movie ,which it isn’t, you still would’ve wanted more. That’s why your arguments are only nitpicks and not any actual grave flaws, which there are in this movie, but you failed again at mentioning any.
