Not a fan of that pop rap music for the trailer. But it is intriguing.

The very beginning, like first ten seconds I am not sure that is Godzilla. Some say it's Mecha Godzilla.

Also brings up the years debate since the Kong movie came out how can Kong take on Godzilla. Well apparently make him even bigger than Godzilla works. And make him stronger works.

In the recent Kong films, they did mention that he was still 'young', so being bigger and stronger now could be possible ?

Definitely. It was just a small criticism in how can Kong from the Kong movie be able to take on Godzilla. Especially since in that movie, Kong did take some damage and was hurt. Maybe has he got older over the past 50 years his skin got thicker and stronger.

Also looks like he will wield some sort of axe made from Godzilla's spinal plates.

Something occurred to me today. I read somewhere that Godzilla weights around 90k tons. No way in hell could Godzilla climb up on that ship in the trailer. He would automatically sink it by it weight. And if Kong is a direct rival to Godzilla, then Kong has to be comparable weight too. Maybe in the 70k range.
