It's gonna be WB considering all their big movies are with WB
What's interesting is AT&T is spinning off WB with Discovery as announced a few months ago. So it'll be interesting to see Legendary produce uh... something for HGTV assuming WB purchases Legendary?

Also another fact, the deal to sell Crunchyroll to Sony is currently under scrutiny since it would technically give Sony a monopoly in the anime streaming market (remember Sony also owns Funimation). Deals like this are complex and I honestly don't expect any company to purchase Legendary at this time.
I definitely don't expect Disney to purchase them as I don't believe the companies have ever collaborated in the past.

And to do that Disney would have to buy Toho which they couldn't. Japanese government wouldn't allow it.

Universal also not letting Disney buy King Kong or Jurassic Park or anything.

So amongst my favorite franchises are safe from that evil known as Disney!

I mean, Legendary Entertainment only got permission to make Godzilla movies from Toho iirc, Toho isn't part of their company.
Yes but Legendary are currently doing the MonsterVerse that has Godzilla in it which guess again Toho is involved regarding Godzilla's rights.

But that wouldn't be buying Toho. It would be like buying Square Enix then saying that because Disney characters are in Kingdom Hearts, the company owns Disney now.

Reminds me of the time Microsoft thought they owned Donkey Kong because they purchased Rare.

It's a true story too.

Godzilla (1954), Cloverfield and Godzilla (2014) do certainly show how terrifying giant monsters can truly be.

I closed my eyes and opened them again and for a split second I saw Hoothoot. The Pokémon. Just… Hoothoot. Staring at me in the dark. What the **** is going on?
He is coming.
Snakefigher about to get isekai’d to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon :4pacman:
I had to google isekai to understand that. But basically

Except far less bad.
Not without me she isn’t

We really need to quiz ourselves on what Pokemon would actually be cool to exist as.

They have a lot of iconic properties. The problem is like…. the world of Gremlins and King Kong and The Mask and a handful of others would a just be “city”. I guess you could go with just WB but… idk.
I guess you could have the Gremlins world always be in winter like Dimensions. You could also get away with a jungle setting for Kong,

We actually aren’t sure if that was in the legend. We haven’t gotten any updates on it since February :drshrug:
That's why it's a legend.

'Cause who knows if it exists, amirite?

GameFreak y'all better be actually making this game baller or I WILL PERSONALLY FLY TO JAPAN AND

Let you know I am moderately disappointed and expected better, but understand game development is hard and offer a hug if you need one, 'cause life sucks and sometimes hugs are nice.

And as much as I hate to admit it, I wasn't exactly a fan of Bernie and Josh in Godzilla vs. Kong among with that whole joke about bleach. I confess.

Otherwise some nitpicks and criticisms aside I enjoyed the film for what it was.
