The GodzillaThreshold example was made invisible, though it seems a clear-cut example to me and I carefully phrased it to attempt to avoid speculative troping. \\\"We need Kong, the world needs him, to stop what\\\'s coming.\\\" is a prominent trailer line, and taking Kong off Skull Island (something that has never gone well in Kong\\\'s history, and certainly involved great difficulty, danger, and expense) to fight whatever the threat is (heavily implied to be rogue Godzilla, though there\\\'s some ambiguity about that) seems an open-and-shut example of \\\"things are so bad unleashing a giant monster can\\\'t possibly make them worse.\\\" Whether or not Kong is being brought out to specifically fight Godzilla or not, with the trailer stating humanity believes Godzilla is attacking them for no reason, the belief that they cannot rely on Godzilla to restore balance this time and have to look elsewhere for a kaiju savior fits GodzillaThreshold well, in my mind.

If this is lacking in context. . . can someone explain precisely why? I\\\'m not trying to be argumentative, just trying to up my troping skills.
