but didn't they set Godzilla up as a "good guy" in the first movie? why would the jaegers fight Godzilla? he would be the one fighting the kaiju, no?

maybe Godzilla would fight beside the jaegers?

My guess would be that it would set up like many other crossover movies. They would start out fighting each other then eventually fight alongside each other. In past Godzilla movies, he's been an anti hero at times. I'm sure the government does not fully trust a lizard the size of a skyscraper. They really have no choice but to let him do his thing, unless they had something that could compete with him. Like the Jaegers.

Anyway, I doubt it happens unfortunately. But it is cool that GDT wants it and maybe there is a chance for it.

Have you ever seen a Godzilla movie prior to that one?

Thats pretty much the plot to every Godzilla movie after the original one back in the 50's. Typically it goes like this:
- Some event happens (bomb, aliens land, Mothra Wakes Up)
- Godzilla attacks Tokoyo
- JDSF shoots at Godzilla
- Other "monster" is sent in, turns on Japan
- Godzilla fights other monster
- Godzilla defeats other monster
- Outgoing monologue about Godzilla being "not the monster Japan deserves, but the monster Japan needs."
