Let me be a tad more clear with my prior statement: Campiness in Godzilla is both universal and it's something I do thoroughly enjoy, but only if there's heart and soul put into it. While Godzilla vs Kong dipped more into Showa then Heisei or Millennium, GvK was still a movie made by people who gave a shit about these characters and knew when to take a second to have a quiet moment or get some development in the case of people like Kong.Oh I gotcha.
I'm sorry to say that I don't see that happening. Godzilla vs Kong made the Monsterverse viable, I'm betting that's the template they're using going forward.
Now, Adam Wingard is directing New Empire so I do have faith that he can balance silliness with depth and heart...but I just don't want it to be completely silly without thought put into it. That's ultimately why, though I'm excited, I feel some concern for how they will tone New Empire
