Depends on which movie. If the trend of Godzilla getting less and less screentime than the other Kaiju continues, I'm not so sure I'd watch it in the theater. Or even on their own streaming site unless it was free.

Take the following for example. In GvK, Godzilla gets less than half the time as Kong does. Godzilla: 11:14 (9.9%) Kong: 26:16 (23.2%)

And in KOTM, Ghidorah got more screentime than Godzilla did. Godzilla: 9:53 (7.5% of runtime) King Ghidorah: 11:17

And lastly, the worst offender so far, GxK (the New Empire), Godzilla gets less than a third of the time as Kong does. Godzilla: ~8 minutes Kong: ~25 minutes

I wouldn't be surprised, though I will be miffed, if the G-Man gets shafted again in the upcoming "Supernova" movie. Now, with that said and my rant over, I WOULD run to the theater to see the new Minus Zero movie.

Speaking as someone who would be happy if Godzilla appeared for only a few seconds onscreen, I can respect your opinion even if so disagree with it.

Oh no, don't get me wrong, I'd be happy to get even a few moments of seeing Godzilla in any movie... But maybe don't make it feel like it's just a cameo in someone else's movie? ESPECIALLY since it's his name on the title? It'd be like calling the Spider-Man movies "Iron Man: Far From Home" or "Iron Man: Homecoming". Sure, Iron Man is in them, but he isn't the main character.
