Who's actually making it, who are they making it for, and what is their intent with making it, is the question. I know nothing about that AppleTV series. I just know Godzilla Minus One is made by Toho, mostly for a traditional Japanese audience (but of course welcome international viewing too should they desire to).
Its made for the people who complained about human characters in the 2014 Godzilla movie, as its entirely designed to try and create a super dramatic storyline with monsters as the backdrop. So it'll be praised to the high heavens constantly and then forgotten about a year after its conclusion (like all the Marvel TV shows).
Well given it's Apple it would be purely monetary, I watched the first episode and it was just so slow. One of the problem when they make a TV show from an action film is the pacing is lost and it becomes boring.
I was getting the impression it was a limited sort of screening, but that's not the case at all. Even my local theater has it, and is showing well into next week, so I might go see it on next Tuesday (where they do $5 Tuesday tickets).
I hope it's better than the Apple TV Godzilla series

I saw it with the kid and his friend. I think it's the best Godzilla movie in a very long time. Highly recommended.

Oh yeah, go see it for sure.
