Has debuted a new trailer teasing the return of Monarch and their god-sized monsters in. The sequel to the 2014 American franchise relaunch comes from Trick ‘r Treat and Krampus filmmaker Michael Dougherty and stars Stranger Things breakout Millie Bobby Brown alongside Vera Farmiga and Kyle Chandler in another city-stomping monster epic.

This time the King of the Monsters isjoined by some of his fellow iconic Kaiju including the hangar jet sized insectoid Mothra, the three-headed beast King Ghidorah, and the titanic Pteranodon Rodan.The followup will see the return of Monarch, the mysterious “crypto-zoological agency” introduced in Godzilla and the shared-universe prequel Kong: Skull Island (which teased the arrival of Mothra & co. In a post-credits scenes), who face off against the ancient super-species once again in their mission to protect human existence.What I love about this trailer is that it knows you’re here for the monsters. This movie has a terrific cast, but I wouldn’t be surprised if at the end of the movie you still don’t know any of their characters’ names, and that’s okay! This is a movie about Godzilla and his fellow monsters! That’s what you paid to see!
I’m totally here for this monster mayhem and the loosest possible plot to have them fight.Check out the Godzilla: King of the Monsters trailer below, and for Steve Weintraub’s thoughts on the trailer from CCXP. Co-written by Dougherty, Zach Shields, and Max Borenstein, the film also stars Bradley Whitford, Ken Watanabe, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Thomas Middleditch and Sally Hawkins, and hits theaters May 31, 2019.Here’s the official synopsis for Godzilla: King of the Monsters:The new story follows the heroic efforts of the crypto-zoological agency Monarch as its members face off against a battery of god-sized monsters, including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the three-headed King Ghidorah.
When these ancient super-species—thought to be mere myths—rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity’s very existence hanging in the balance.
Now, I never grew up with wrestling, so I was never really a fan of it. Though I did glean some of the mythology through the SMACKDOWN games, since I loved creating my own characters (like Mario and The Master from MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE) and having them duke it out. Though I get the appeal. It's classic good vs. evil stuff, within the confines of an over-the-top melodrama. It's basically real-life superheroes. Even if it's not my thing, I can see why it's popular.

So it's no surprise that the proprietor of WWE (formerly WWF) Vince McMahon is getting his own biopic called PANDEMONIUM. It seems Sony Pictures' Tri-Star is collaborating with WWE Studios to get the film made. And here's the official synopsis, according to Deadline:
The film covers McMahon’s ascension in the wrestling business, and having WWE Studios involved indicates the project has the blessing of the grappling magnate. He is third generation — the business was started by his grandfather Jess and taken over by his father Vincent — but these were local circuits and relatively small time compared to what Vince McMahon had in mind. The barrel-chested showman turned the World Wrestling Federation (now WWE) into a global roadshow business juggernaut. He unleashed grapplers from Hulk Hogan to Bruno Sammartino and Triple H to budding actor John Cena and The Rock, aka Dwayne Johnson, Hollywood’s reigning action star. McMahon built his ring empire in Stamford, CT, and McMahon, who long had dreams of being a wrestling star, realized that dream as well and became WWF champ in 1999, as well as the ECW champion and winner of the 1999 Royal Rumble.
I'm actually a little iffy about the fact that this has approval of McMahon and WWE (meaning it might play softball with some juicy details), but that isn't necessarily a detriment. I mean, I enjoyed SAVING MR. BANKS - even being aware of its playing fast-and-(very) loose with the facts and the borderline hagiography of Disney - so there's a possibility that won't be the end of the world for this biopic either. I imagine there are still a lot of fun stories about the early days of the WWF/WWE to mine, so I'm intrigued regardless.
So what about you guys who are actually pro-wrestling fans? Does this sound interesting to you? And if so, who would you cast in the roles?
