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.

Yea, I think people are just using minus ones success as an excuse to bash the franchise. Even though the monsterverse movies have been on par with the vast majority of Godzillas films up till now and single handling kept the franchise relevant untill now.

Also while Toho did great with shin and minus one they cant keep relying on standalone movies and or terrible/forgettable anime series forever.
