But nah. Nah. People nowadays don't want to read a fanfiction or see a movie to get involved with a story, because that requires BRAIN PROCESSING. No, people want to see and read SPECTACLE. Y'know that there are Godzilla films which are more STORY-driven as opposed to SPECTACLE-driven, right? I get it but listen dude, I gotta be honest, you need to work better on handling critism. First the Powerpuff girls thing and now this. Accepting people's opinions is part of growing as a writer imo. Not everyone is gonna like your story.

Personally I think no crossover should focus on one franchise over the other, but if you're just developing the story and setting things up, take your time, and I'm sure it'll get better. Don't always assume there is nothing wrong with your work and that it's the person critising it, that won't get you very far.
