Warner Bros. is a movie studio that seems to take a perverse joy out of making its characters fight each other.

Batman and Superman will throw down in March’s Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice (which continues to sound more like a US Supreme Court case than superhero fight), and a showdown between two of cinema’s most famous giant monster is on the horizon.

In the Reddit Movies community, user shandoo posted the announcement from Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures that Godzilla and King Kong will now be knocking over buildings in the same movie universe. And all that destruction will culminate in 2020’s Godzilla vs. Kong (now that sounds like the title of a fight).

Although delighted by the future onscreen tussle (a rematch, of sorts, since the two creatures went head to head in 1962’s King Kong vs. Godzilla), some Reddit users were more excited about the possibility of a third participant that’s also a part of the Warner Bros.-Legendary movie partnership:

That’s right, a three-for-all between the King of Monsters, the Eighth Wonder of the World and the monster-fighting mechs of Guillermo Del Toro’s Pacific Rim could conceivably happen. In fact, Del Toro already has said he would “love the fuck out of” a jaegers-vs.-Godzilla flick. But as Reddit user acupofteak wondered, do they have to fight?

Warner Bros. also was behind a 2001 film that features a character who might want a piece of this action (so long as Denzel Washington still portrays him).
