That's the point I'm making, the person I quoted claimed the American producers didn't know what they were doing with Godzilla, I pointed out the American movie made twice as much as the lower costing Japanese version despite releasing same day on max. The movie's box office was $470mil it cost $200mil to make and another $70mill to promote, it made $200mil.

And on top of that it was released simultaneously on HBO Max streaming, so we don't know the figures around those numbers as well.

With that said, I get that people really like Minus 1 better than any of the American made Godzilla movies so far (I am one of those people as it fits much closer to the original first Godzilla movie), but to make ignorant statements that Americans shouldn't make new Godzilla movie is just another level of stupid.
