We SOLVED the Gojira that Ate a STAR Is SPACEGODZILLA| Godzilla x Kong: New Empire Explained 

I saw this theory on reddit, it ALL makes sense now. Windgard saying this next movie is gonna be like godzilla x Kong level threat but for a Godzilla only movie. Space Godzilla is the PERFECT next villain for MV.

Just an idea. What if the phrase "Eating a star" didn't actually refer to just consuming too much radiation, but to an ancient Godzilla finding and consuming a radioactive meteorite, making the phrase "eating a star" much more literal in meaning?

Turns out the plot twist is Doug the psudo zilla evolves into a true titan, and fights off Space Godzilla simply by being too smooth brained to be mind controlled.

Godzilla vs Space-Godzilla was the very first Godzilla movie I watched when I was 8, I am now 34 and I still remember the sheer brutality of that fight. If Space-Godzilla is going to be the next big bad, I hope filmmakers do it justice.

So they've set up Destoroyah in KotM with the oxygen destroyer. They just set up Space Godzilla in GxK. The Monsterverse is just printing money at this point and I'm all here for it.

I was astounded that we didn't get it during the anti gravity fight scene, but maybe they're saving the Godzilla dropkick for use against Space Godzilla, who probably will also be messing up gravity to allow it to make *some* degree of sense.

I remember that mural of the Kongs and Gojira fighting a Blue Gojira with wings, back in the day researchers said that a lot of times cave people would draw a flying being with wings to represent that it’s flying. Which makes sense due to no space lines on caves. At the end of the day it just comes down to the studio paying for his licensing and the story. Because from what I heard, mothra wasn’t supposed to be in GxK but they added her due to confusion in test screenings

I thought Dr. Andrews referred to the Gojira who ate the stars as Godzilla??

What I like about this is it makes sense! In the first movie they had a passing quote about there being three godzillas. Godzilla Himself, Dagon and a third Godzilla. If we go along this line, what if the gravity of the pyramids kept this evil Godzilla deep underground.

It was a very good movie. Just wrapped up very quickly. They should have added another 15 to 20 more minutes.

I want a Godzilla solo movie, against Space Godzilla or Destroyah. Kong can have a cameo.

They def need to make destroyah a villain as they set up his arrival in 2019 with KOTM when they detonated the oxygen bomb in the ocean

In several of the Godzilla comics, SpaceGodzilla's crystal formations are a form of energy infused quartz. Energy that is multi-purpose including gravity control and devastation. In the comics, SG is referred to as the King of the Quartz due to his world ravaging might and connection with the quartz which almost seems to have a essence of its own. so, "Swallowing a Star", could refer to a Gojira finding a meteorite of this quartz, consuming it, and the Quartz taking over from within, fusing with the Gojira's body and mutating it into a being that can embody it's world altering and shattering power. So, yeah, SG does seem to be a prime fit for the next challenger.

Only complaint I had with Godzilla x Kong is that the stakes never felt that high. Godzilla and Kong pretty much tore up stuff. They were clearly more powerful than their adversaries.

Could be another Godzilla and not the one that we're seeing now. That one 'ate ' the star,powered up and stopped the great apes. He's out there somewhere. Also they say that the ancient battle took place between the Godzilla species and the Kong species, and now that Kong has discovered some apes, it's possible that there are other Godzillas out there in the hollow earth? They say that they've only mapped out 5% of the hollow earth. Also it's curious that they never made an effort to find other Godzilla species. Kong has always been in the lookout for another one of his kind. Godzilla is also alone but he ain't concerned or looking for someone of his kind.

Great video, The Godzilla that ate an entire star. SpaceGodzilla incoming

Wave, mothra is basically a psychic incarnate. This thing lays eggs and rises like a phoenix if that aint some psychic mumbo jumbo yall buggin. as well as discerning friend and foe in the middle of a fight. plus she knows exactly what godzilla needs when he needs it and she is always able to help him no matter the circumstance.

I like that the current Goji and Kong aren’t the only ones but are the latest in their line to ascend to this level. We know about 3(-ish) different Gojis that existed - the prospective Space-goji - Dagon - possibly ones shown in paintings could be separate from the one we know (the one shown fighting kongs ancestor and the one who sealed Ghidora) It’s just seems neat to me.

And here I am, still waiting for them to setup Biollante.

I agree, I think the next movie should focus more on Godzilla and I'm glad that Adam Wingard has PERSONALLY recognised this and acknowledged it, showing that the filmmakers indeed DO listen to the fanbase concerns. Godzilla was super cool in this movie, but he didn't do all that much except basically killing bad guys. I mean, he is their Superman to Kongs Batman remember that. But it would be nice to do a movie with more character development of Godzilla, as he is so insanely destrucitve, it will probably be harder for many governments to accept him. There are two ways this could go: 1. Space Godzilla is the threat he's been gearing up for. 2. We go BACK To the idea of humans being the villains. Alex Ferns character says in the movie 'more money and no monsters, who could possibly want that?". This would pave way for the most evil human to ever share the screen with Godzilla and Kong: Colonel Archie Nevitt from "King Kong Lives" (he was the only good thing about that movie, and the MV has yet to feature a TRULY menacing human villain so Nevitt would fill the gap perfectly. Imagine Miles Quaritch from Avatar with a Hitler moustasche and you get this guy! Give him Mecha King Ghidorah to pilot and you'll have the fight of the century. Funny enough, Alex Ferns actually bears a resemblance to John Ashton, so he would've been a great fit for this character to be honest, but I got another actor in mind: Brendan Cowell (the whaler from Avatar 2). What's one more guy who loves torturing animals for him to play?

GXK Movie spoiler: In GXK the new empire when this is talked, they weren’t talking about another, but were actually talking our Godzilla who ate a star, and banished the Skar king into the hollow earth, for it was made very clear that the Titan war wasn’t between multiple titanous Kong’s and multiple Godzilla’s, but in fact it was only multiple titanous Kong’s, and our 1 Godzilla. Now here’s the interesting thing. Godzilla was depicted flying in one scene where they showed the very next part of the story. But then Godzilla was back on the ground and was banishing Scar king, and Shimo. That’s where I’m still trying to figure that part out.

Godzilla in the movie went to tiamat lair to absorb gamma radiation from the sun, it's possible that he did so in ancient times too

Unfortunately for your theory GXK already stated that regular Godzilla is the one they're referring to as the one who ate a star, though i suppose they could always ignore this since theres almost no rhyme or reason to these films anymore.

Space Godzilla would be an interesting route, though I look forward to his name change. I’d also like to see Gigan since KotM mentioned Ghidorah being an alien.

That cave painting looks like mothra carrying godzilla.

Alternative plot idea for a sequel, Space Godzilla similar to gxk Godzilla was an earlier godzilla that used hollow earth energy to evolve to defeat Ghidorah, it grew crystals and gained gravity powers and threw Ghidorah into the ice to freeze it. Ghidorah originally came to earth to consume the 'star' as well because it wanted to power up its own anti gravity powers. Space Godzilla then flies off earth to try and find Ghidorah's home world to prevent further invasion from the Ghidorah species. Space Godzilla senses Ghidorah's return in KoTM and heads back to earth to get rid of Ghidorah once and for all, it plans on going back to hollow earth to power up by consuming the iwi tribe's crystals. Everbody else thinks that Space Godzilla is an extra terrestrial threat as monarch senses Ghidorah's power from it as it descends to earth wreaking havoc on our nuclear reactors, absorbing radiation all over the world, it pisses off Godzilla who goes and confronts it. Godzilla gets owned and is made to submit to the new alpha and is spared, Godzilla retreats to antartica to Tiamat's old lair to recover and power up. Space Godzilla makes its way to hollow earth to absorb the Iwi crystals, faces off against Kong and Shimo, Mothra intervenes allowing Space Godzilla to win at the price of Space Godzilla sparing Kong and Shimo. Space Godzilla makes its way back to the surface, its radiation is off the charts Monarch assumes the earth's only hope is for the newly powered up pink Godzilla to defeat Space Godzilla and consume all its radiation before it causes a planetary extinction level self explosion. The fight almost looks even, but Space Godzilla has the upper hand with its gravity powers, it levitates Godzilla up into the air, about to finish him off with a mid air version of the Kiss of Death until... Ghidorah's iconic screech is heard and 3 yellow anti gravity lightning beams strike Space Godzilla, indirectly saving Godzilla from the Kiss of Death, the Ghidorah threat that was detected by Monarch all this time wasn't Space Godzilla whom they thought was extra terrestrial, but Keizer Ghidorah, (a more quadrapedal dragon like kaiju unlike the KoTM Ghidorah who was more wyvern like) who followed Space Godzilla back to earth to consume the hollow earth energy source. Kong and Shimo make it to the surface which pisses off Godzilla for not staying in hollow earth, Space Godzilla uses his Alpha roar to order Godzilla to subjugate Kong and Shimo, while Space Godzilla and Keizer Ghidorah face off. This time Kong and Shimo's teamwork over powers Godzilla, but now Mothra intervenes again and makes them realise they have to team up against Keizer Ghidorah who is the main threat. Meanwhile Keizer Ghidorah has the upper hand in its fight against Space Godzilla, who's gravity powers are nullified by Keizer Ghidorah's own gravity powers and rapid regeneration. Kong, Shimo and Godzilla now come in to aid Space Godzilla who is now revealed to be the original protector of nature as the monster that ate a star. Kong chops off Ghidorah's wings and whilst regenerating cannot evade Shimo's ice blast, Godzilla becomes radioactively unstable and on the verge of exploding, which could be catastrophic for the earth, Godzilla grapples onto Ghidorah. Ghidorah is about to break free from his ice prison, but Space Godzilla is able to use his gravity powers on Godzilla who is holding tightly onto Ghidorah, they are both lifted outside of earth's atmosphere by Space Godzilla. Godzilla reaches critical mass and explodes, taking out Keizer Ghidorah with him, Godzilla dies as the posthumous hero. Epilogue: Space Godzilla returns to space, who knows if he'll return, Kong and Shimo return to the Hollow Earth, the Iwi tribe rebuild their domain. Somewhere in the Atlantic ocean a large egg hatches inside some ancient ruins, giving birth to another Godzilla creature, Godzilla Jr and the effects of the oxygen destroyer has mutated ancient colonies of crustaceans on the ocean floor that are able to migrate through to the hollow earth through a vortex on the bottom of the ocean. With the absence of a Godzilla as the surface protector, Monarch has been given a green light to recommence the project of constructing a mechanical titan that evokes Godzilla's alpha call, the project name is KIRYU.

Taking into consideration that, for any Toho characters to appear in the Monsterverse, Legendary must pay rather large licensing fees for each character they use, it is extremely unlikely that Space Godzilla, Destoroyah, Biollante or any other Toho kaiju will be appearing any time soon. They already shelled out for Mothra, Ghidorah and Rodan, which are highly recognizable and pivotal characters, to add to the draw of the franchise to US audiences in its earlier stages, but I have little doubt they're going to stick to creating their own characters for the Monsterverse, ones for which they own the copyrights.

Imagine if the next movie is Godzilla turning to SpaceGodzilla after absorbing the energy of a fallen star, but then he realizes that the galactic power he obtained are too dangerous and opposes Earth's natural order. So he departs from Earth to become the guardian of the solar system and leaves the throne to Kong

What if the Monster verse of the Space Godzilla is the male partner of Shimu, and the Cristal that Skar used was part of the Crown on his head? And he is still trapped in a deeper cave at the center of earth

when they mentioned Godzilla they only seen the painting as Godzilla but it is space Godzilla, The Godzilla we have does not have wings so your theory seems correct

The one problem I see in this theory is that this creature wouldn't exactly be SPACEgodzilla. Just, powerful crystal godzilla. The signs are there, but it's possible the source of radiation could have come from elsewhere. Perhaps not from below, but from above...

Eh… i do feel like the Godzilla in the cave painting is the Godzilla we know, considering the blue energy and the wings, akin to mothra. Maybe he simply shrinks when he runs low on radiation, which is how he got to his Monarch appearance

I still believe that Destoroyah is the final threat to Godzilla, the titans and all of Mankind.

But spacegodzilla was never discussed according to Jared Kichevsky; with the source coming from ETN

can't wait to see who is next but yea with all the lore drops in the background and characters talking about Monarch files it's primed for Space Godzilla i really want to see them ramp up to the point of Alien threats coming in like Gigan or Ghidora reborn then there are many other side monsters that could get a spotlight a Mothra movie would be nice too with her evil twin coming into play

What if Godzilla later down the line becomes just like the evil Godzilla and Godzilla himself becomes the big final bad villian

Serious question. Would he still be “space” Godzilla? This sounds more like hollow earth radiation godzilla 🤷🏻‍♂️

Great!!! Nice exposition about this new presentation. Nice to see some imagination in the cinema lore. Keep up the admirable work. Look forward to more of your entertaining channel.

Destroyah is definitely the best way of keeping the audience engaged and keeping the finale as grounded as possible. Also could be a 2 part finale. First film re-engineering godzilla DNA and trying to radiate it and it starting to mutate then the second movie being the showdown

Godzilla got a kaioken x20 boost... And he DID NOT NEED IT. Think about it, yhere wasnt a single thing he did that his regular atomic blast coulndt do and he didnt even lay into Shimo with his extra power..... So why did he feel the need to absorb all of that energy NOW if it wasnt for them? I beleive because he knows about Space G and is preparing for him, clearing up loose ends and maintaining stability. Not knowing whos with who JUST yet, hence why he goes after Kong UNTIL Mothra shows up and clears things up Mothra seems to be the only being godzilla can trust on sight and is the only one he has never gone after. I wouldnt be suprised if it was Mothra that convinced him to go to the surface Theres a lot of monster telepathy and how they communicate, i think they know more then they can even hint at.

Hmmm? ..Maybe that's why skar order shimo to blast the sky as a signal to Space Godzilla.

I would love to see Spacegodzilla in the MV but I think they should gold off for a bit longer, introduce Jet Jaguar, Biollante, maybe Gigan, Megalon and Hedorah. THEN Spacegodzilla, and to cap off the MV use Destoroyah.

Godzilla needs to go over 9000.

Can we genuinely appreciate that the monsterverse is capable of showing both fun and bonding at the same time, i thought scylla and timaut was a bit rushed considering thier importance, more so timaut, plus its lore is legitimately satisfying and deeper than being a popcorn film, and yes being goofy is ok, it let's godzilla do what he needs to do without getting restricted by anything bounded by real life, same with kong

I’m gonna go see it two more times. all the fighting is EPIC. I love how they made the monsters communicate through physical form.

biollante: 👁🌹👁

The director of GxK stated that the next movie would focus more on Godzilla like how GxK focused more on Kong. “If this movie is successful, I think that the next movie will be the Godzilla version of what we did with this movie, kind of pushing deeper into his story.” -Adam Wingard If it will focus on Godzilla, then that further strengthens the theory that the next villain is SpaceGodzilla. Perhaps the two of them could be related, or maybe SpaceGodzilla will try to recruit Godzilla. Or perhaps SpaceGodzilla will defeat Godzilla and replace him as Alpha. Maybe Godzilla will be forced to absorb the Hollow Earth energy to try to defeat SpaceGodzilla, but in the process, slowly lose his sanity as well. The ending of the movie would not be as happy as GxK’s, but instead showing us a victorious Godzilla, with something clearly wrong with his behavior.

the 'wings' on the tribal painting honestly remind me a lot more of Destoroyah; I wonder if the final battle will be Destoroyah vs Space Godzilla, since there was the oxygen bomb in KOtM. And then Zilla would just sit there and fight them both somehow.

I could be misremembering, but I thought the prophecy was that a Gojira who "Ate a Star" was the one that would save them? and during the movie, Godzilla kills Tiamat to absorb the solar radiation in the ice inside Tiamat's domain. Thus making it that Godzilla absorbed our Sun's energy and "Ate a Star".

Legends tell of a Gojira that ate a star and then wanted all the smoke. I think the G-man just took the first step.

Finna be my favorite movie of all time forever

Maybe the place in the hollow earth that they used to banish him was a portal/spacial tear created via gravity manipulation. They thought they obliterated SG, but they really just sent him somewhere else in the cosmos. That way, he can return by flying to our planet from space, so he can keep his name. Space Godzilla sounds a lot better to me than Meth Head Hollow Earth Godzilla.

The swallow a star story was in the novelization for Godzilla vs Kong back in 2021

I hope spacegodzilla and Godzilla become a dream team

i wish GxK Followed up with a Post Credits Scene like Kong: Skull Island and KOTM, setting up either SpaceGodzilla or Destroyah, i really hope Spacegodzilla is next but ill be down for whatever is next

It seemed that Shimu was actually under a mind control spell that can be seen being broken when the crystal is shattered in the final battle. Her eyes instantly lose the blue glow! A glow that was not directly related to only pointing the crystal at her. What if the Skar King got the crystal from space godzilla OR from the exact place that provided space godzilla the ridiculous radiation?

What if the star that was eaten wasnt a star but more so one of the Crystal in the Hallow earth and doing so mutated its cells creating a crystal looking Godzilla and went through one of the portals and after doing so the portal shut leaving in him in a another part of the universe and afte conjuring other plants and feeling the crystals being used triggers his memory about being shunned from the Hallow Earth. So with that, triggers his vengeance to destory Earth leading to Space Godzilla vs Evolved Godzilla

I thought it was referring to Godzilla having taken a bite out of Gidorah after he beat him since he was seen moving his mouth and a little bit of yellow electricity was shown. Also that it was a huge revelation that Gidorah was actually from space because it came out unharmed after the oxygen destroyer hit. And in the scene when they said ‘the one who ate the star’ panned over to a depiction of the Gidorah battle (from what I remember)

yes, when Godzilla absorbs the sun's energy he is inspired by Godzilla vs spacegodzilla

i thought of the idea, where space godzilla was a godzilla that became evil because it took in cosmic radiation. They say this Godzilla ate a star. So what if like a meteorite or something from space hit Earth. and this Godzilla became evil because it took use of the cosmic radiation and then becoming corrupted.

I hope the next movie is badass, with a badass fight between space Godzilla and Godzilla himself. And I hope the next movie is scary, but also with some funny lines . Godzilla needs badass scenes, trust me shorts finna go crazy . I love how goofy and cool and badass GXK is, I have no problem with it. But I hope this one will be the most badass MV movie yet. Also I hope minus one fans don’t compare any more MV movies with this. It just doesn’t make sense

Considering his new origin I think the new Spacegodzilla should either be called Stargodzilla or Crystalgodzilla

No... They literally explained that Godzilla is the "one who ate a star" in the movie...

read GVK novel, there is reference to the lizard that ate a star in it as well. I don't think it is space godzilla at all. It is about Godzilla and it's power. The power beyond their primitive understanding, they see how the stars shine, and notice how Godzilla was able to spit fire the same color as the stars, so it is logical they made a correlation.

I think the strongest Titan in the monsterverse should be Destoroyah. And hopefully he's the big bad of what ever the final Monsterverse movie is

I now king ghidorah got obliterated. But man, I really wish he'd come back as a threat once again. Not as a main villain, but as an ally to space Godzilla. Imagine Godzilla, Kong, Mothra, Rodan, and a few other earth Titans that godzilla calls for To fight a Ghidorah, space godzilla, destorayh and biolante. Fuck that'd be sweet. FINAL WAR ENDGAME.

Space godzilla is our godzilla at his fully upgraded

It would make sense because Godzilla easily overpowered Skar King and Shimo, I think he was absorbing Radiation and evolving for a different reason. *cough* spacegodzilla *cough*

GxK, implies that Godzilla is Zo-Zla-Halawa, "eating a star" is probably a description of his Fire Godzilla state, the wings probably also is a way to describe him floating through the gravity in the same way Egyptians used hyroglyphics. Although it'd be pretty cool for spacegodzilla to be in the monsterverse

Monster verse will never end at all

Bro it was said directly in the film that 'the one that ate a star' was godzilla

Godzilla is the one who ate a star. Godzilla specie? Plus there are always crystals in the film. Ok now im hyped.

I interpreted the "eating a star" phrase as godzilla defeating ghidorah, seeing as that was a feat he was seemingly well known for by the iwis, but that also makes a lot of sense

What about Gigan? In the original canon Gigan came from space, could breath fire, and had flight.

Yeah we're not doing this. The star situation they are talking about refers to the flow of Godzillas atomic power. The Iwi see if as if he had eaten and star and fired it's glowing rays at will. Nothing in no way connected to space Godzilla who would have to be FROM SPACE.

Showa era madness, heisei era villains, I’m in

Spacegodzilla would be perfect. Since in his original iteration he was way too strong for Godzilla to take on by himself.

Space G is a Menace , know what also live up space , Being of Light . Ultraman

Supposedly Ghidorah has his own psionic links when communicating with each of his three heads instead of having to rely on electrical signals since his body was so big and wouldn’t have been fast enough during battle. As well as the psionic link with Kevin’s head during GvK when linked to MechaGoji.

If zoswahalla is spacegodzilla then that is a awesome name for spacegodzilla to have

I did notice this line in the film, wasn't sure how it was about Godzilla. This theory makes sense.

Wow this is incredible.

SpaceGodzilla can definitely be the next threat & make the next GxK a Godzilla-focused film.

I just realized your from the channel The Stupendous Wave as well. Love your star wars lore videos!

Oh my gosh, in the movie, when it said a titan ate a star, it said godzilla, just godzilla gosh, yall take stuff too far

Honestly, I hope that this is where they go because the idea and the pieces do fit together. But one thing is for sure, the longer they go on, the more obscure monsters they're gonna have to bring back, And they have plenty to pull from you have space godzilla, bagan, biolante And we still haven't seen guign, just to name a few

OMG I didn’t even think of that line hinting to Space Godzilla. Because when the teaser first dropped. We thought scar key was being controlled by or space Godzilla but I forgot about that because of the trailer that had shimo and the crystal on her back were hers. But looking at it know. That crystal that scar king had could have been something hinting towards SG

Super powered Gojira shocking how powerful this Gojira could be

The og Space Godzilla movie was my absolute favorite as a kid, so the possibility of him being on the big screen is awesome!! I love your Star Wars videos, how did I not know you did this stuff too?!?!😂 New Sub for sure.

The problem is they refer to Godzilla as “the monster who ate a star” in this film.

The mural clearly showed godzilla when the statement was made , and then trapper said his name

It would be very fitting for the next film. Skar King was a good foil to Kong and Space Godzilla is a good foil to Godzilla. Kong and Godzilla teaming up against Space Godzilla is a great way for Kong to return the favor to Godzilla. Even though Godzilla sensed the danger of Shimo and was preparing to fight her, he wasn’t really expecting Skar King. If the next film is more Godzilla focused, New Empire does set up Space Godzilla well.

I think space godzilla and destroyah is the version of monsterverse zo zla halawa that will appear in GXK 3

So Godzilla, Kong, Mothra, Shimo, basically the Avengers in the monsterverse. Now thats established, they should be in each others films going foward.

When i heard Dr. Andrew mentioned "a godzilla ate a star" the people in the theater knew what she was talking about.

He kills Tiamut to take the radiation from from Tiamuts liar, not the titan itself.

We still have to see the godzilla with wings from paintinga

Loved the Godzilla x Kong movie. Looking forward to seeing what else they do with the franchise

The next Titans I can see being introduced in the Monsterverse are Battra, Destoroyah, Biollante, and SpaceGodzilla. 1: It was revealed that a Mothra egg was found somewhere after the events of King of the Monsters. However, Mothra returned to life in Hollow Earth. Chances are that egg is actually Battra. He would be a suitable villain for a Mothra spin-off. 2: the oxygen destroyer was introduced in King of the Monsters and detonated in the ocean. Destoroyah’s entire origin is centered around the oxygen destroyer so I can see him being the next Titan. 3: Biollante is another no-brainer, especially after Mechagodzilla. Evil humans are attempting to create their own Titans and Biollante could easily be the next big threat. She could easily be a villain for Godzilla 3. 4: SpaceGodzilla should be an Endgame-level threat for the next Godzilla/Kong movie. I could really see SpaceGodzilla being the stepping stone to a Destroy All Monsters movie.

I just had another thought. What if "eating a star" might be a reference to the burning powerup Godzilla used back in 2019 to defeat Ghidorah? In that form, Godzilla is so hot that he's basically like the sun, so the phrase eating a star referring to Godzilla consuming a large amount of radiation referred to him being powered up by Mothra, or just eating so much radiation that e got supercharged?
