Who knew pink was going to be the color of the year and that, too, represented strength, aggressiveness, and monstrosity? The pink power is bestowed upon us, and we are here for it.
The latest buzz in the MonsterVerse is all about the new trailer for “Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire.” Trust me, if you think the epic showdown that’s got fans talking this time, you are in for a surprise and a thunderbolt.
All eyes popped out of the socket with Godzilla’s new, shall we say, vibrant look. Yes, you heard that right. Our favorite giant lizard has ditched the classic blue for a stunning pink! But before you start thinking Godzilla’s just trying to stay on trend with the latest fashion, let’s dive a bit deeper.
On December 3, 2023, the Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire official trailer dropped, leaving everyone stunned for one reason. It was Godzilla’s pink spikes that caught everyone’s attention. Per one theory, Godzilla’s hibernation in the last installment exposed it to a rare type of radiation, which must have made it stronger, and the color pink indicates its heightened powers. The two forces will join hands and fight against the greater threat, Scar King, a Kong-type villain.
The trailer hints at a lot but tells us little, leaving fans to churn the rumor mill at full speed. From Godzilla’s cocoon-like hibernation to its grand, pink-tinted reveal, there’s plenty to speculate on.
But fear not, fellow pop culture connoisseurs, I have some theories that might unravel this mystery.
What Color is Godzilla in “Godzilla vs Kong”?
Remember the good old days when Godzilla glowed with a fearsome blue aura?
The blue flame symbolized the monstrous lizard’s formidable powers, the flames of which were enough to ablaze an entire city in seconds. It also indicates that King Kong meets an unprecedented nemesis, considering that Kong’s strength has to complement the evil forces of Godzilla.
The high-octane previous installment established the rivalry between our beasts, and we all chose a side (ahem…team Kong).
In another such franchise, Godzilla also appeared in a new avatar with a purple flame that looked even cooler and frightening.
That iconic look defined Godzilla’s atomic breath and overall presence in the MonsterVerse.
Cut to the present; we witness a whole new side of the emperor Zilla’ (since Kong is king!). Godzilla appeared in pink spikes that must represent something. Let us explore a few theories.
Why Is Godzilla Pink in “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire”?
“From his eyes to his dorsal fins, everything is pink here, and that is a definite change from what we’re used to,” noted a recent trailer review. This transformation has sparked a ton of speculation.
Some say it’s an evolutionary leap, possibly triggered by a unique radiation source Godzilla encountered during its hibernation. Others believe it might be a sign of a power-up, an indication that Godzilla is charging up for something big (Obviously).
What Is the Plot of “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire”? Why Is Godzilla Looking for King Kong?
Now, this is the million-dollar question. Are Godzilla and Kong going to throw down again, or is there a more significant threat that requires them to team up? The pink hue might be a key to understanding Godzilla’s motives this time around.
The plot of “Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire” is still shrouded in mystery, but the trailer suggests a major upheaval in the balance of MUTOs (Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms). With Godzilla emerging from hibernation in a new avatar, it hints at a significant plot twist.
A new, stronger, and more colossal Kong version is ready to wreak havoc on the city. And our Kong and the pink lizard bestie….I mean… beasty are consolidating their powers to fight the Scar King together.
Psst… there’s another little nod from the Hollow Earth. The fans of Titanus Doug can rejoice as we can catch a small glimpse of the monster helping defeat the Scar King.
Could this pink phase be a response to a new, unprecedented threat? Is this color change a temporary phase, or is Godzilla evolving into something entirely new? I really don’t care what color he is, as I’ll be watching it either way.
