As a lifelong monster movie fan, I’ve been paying close attention to Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, and it looks like they might have subtly brought in a potential ally for Godzilla! It could be someone from his past, or maybe someone who’ll team up with him down the line. Anyone who knows Godzilla knows he’s not always a lone wolf. In the classic Toho films, he’s actually fought with a bunch of other monsters over the years – Rodan, Mothra, Anguirus, King Caesar, Jet Jaguar, and even Gorosaurus have all been on his side at some point.

The sequel, Army of Darkness, amplified the humor even more, adding a historical action-adventure storyline.
While not the first to use them, the Marvel Cinematic Universe really popularized post-credits scenes as a way to hint at future storylines, making those extra scenes almost as thrilling as the movie itself. Though many Marvel shows don’t include them, the post-credits scene for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 feels particularly important because it marks the end of a significant chapter.
Following the addition of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 to the PlayStation Plus Extra library in February, many new players experienced the popular sequel for free, swinging through New York City as Peter and Miles battled villains like Venom, Sandman, and Kraven.
