GODZILLA VS. KONG Has Been Officially Rated PG-13 (But There's Still No Sign Of A Trailer)

Godzilla Vs. Kong is presumably finished as the movie has been officially rated ahead of its planned November release, but where exactly is the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated spinoff?

The world has been thrown into chaos by COVID-19, and while a number of highly anticipated blockbusters have been moved to later in 2020, the fate of Godzilla Vs. Kong remains a mystery. 

There's been a lot of speculation that the crossover will be pushed into The Matrix 4's release date next May after that was forced to halt production, and it's getting harder and harder to imagine Godzilla Vs. Kong arriving in theaters in November - especially as Warner Bros. hasn't released so much as a single official image or piece of footage. 

We do have an update today, however, with the news that the Motion Pictures Association has rated the movie PG-13 (which, honestly, was to be expected as it was never getting an R). 

It's earned that rating for, "intense sequences of creature violence/destruction and brief language."

The biggest question is whether this means we're getting a trailer soon, as work on Godzilla Vs. Kong must be finished for a rating like this to be decided on. Unfortunately, there's been no word on that whatsoever, and it can't be a case of Warner Bros. thinking the pandemic is a bad time to promote a movie as they recently released a new look at Tenet

The most likely explanation is that the studio doesn't want to start a marketing campaign for a movie which potentially won't be released in theaters if there are problems with re-openings as the year continues.

@dracula

@ViewerAnon said this will prolly be the best movie out of the monsterverse. He either saw a test screening or talked to a lot of people who have.

And he's not a scooper or anything, but he's generally pretty believable when it comes to test screenings and such.

I can see this getting pushed back to Spring or Summer 2021. November is pretty crowded with Black Widow, Soul, and No Time to Die. Even if they release a trailer with Tenet, I don't think four months of promotion would be enough for what is supposed to be an event film.

They really dropped the ball on this. Both Godzilla's and Skull Island were mediocre at best.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 6/3/2020, 10:53 AM
@MaulCipher - And the majority of the audience.

@TheJustinHammer - I mean, is "pretty decent" that far off from "mediocre"? They're so-so.

THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 6/3/2020, 10:57 AM
@TheJustinHammer - So If I say Batman v Superman is garbage, you're going to say that the audience is wrong on that?

@MaulCipher - 75% is mediocre.

@TheJustinHammer - Decent is literally a synonym of mediocre. You seem very insecure.

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - I'd say 55-65% for a film is Mediocre

@ThorArms - Mediocre means "of only ordinary or moderate quality; neither good nor bad; barely adequate." A 70-79% grade falls within that definition. Average.

G and K are going to scrap and then deal with mecha ghitodah at the end? I’ll go see that.

Can't wait, have enjoyed all 3 Monsterverse movies. If the rumors of this being under 2 hours are true then I also don't mind. King of the Monsters was a bitt to long. Bring on the big match of the year.
