With its adaptation of Godzilla, Legendary’s Monsterverse made some significant changes to the concept, allowing the kaiju and his world to be unique to the movies that came before it. The root of all these differences is the existence of the Titans, the name that the Monsterverse has given to its kaiju, who have been reimagined as ancient monsters. But while this separates the Monsterverse from most iterations of Godzilla, it’s worth noting that the idea isn’t completely original. In fact, its ideas have a lot in common with Godzilla vs. Mothra, a movie Toho released 32 years ago.
