Here's how I see it: Zilla jr should be what to Godzilla as what MCU Peter Parker is to MCU Tony Stark.

That's because the cartoon was made by people who cared about the Kaiju fights that makes Godzilla awesome.

The movie was made by some hack who made a movie about Shakespeare not writing his stuff and he believed it.

And made a movie about one of the most important moment in gay rights history filled with gay stereotypes despite being gay himself.
