The Godzilla Thread - Plus other giant monsters, no matter how popular or obscure

  • 🔧 Actively working on site again.
Anyway, I've heard the sequel is quite terrible. Should I: watch it? Read spoilers? Not even read spoilers because they will only anger me?
In my opinion; I'd skip, unless your morbidly curious and want to watch it; I'd just look up a summery or watch one of the various videos on YouTube that talk about why it failed as a sequel and fails to understand what made the original so special.
 
I finally got around to watching Pacific Rim. It was pretty nice overall. No substitute for Robot Jox, but what is. Also: lead actor's "American" accent is possibly the worst I've heard in a feature film. It's like Bronx NY + Australian with a jaw full of novocaine or something (he's English irl I think).

Rinko Kikuchi's character is killed off and replaced by John Boyega and a bunch of Chinamen. That's all I need to know that it's shit.

I'm surprised nobody here talked about the Doktor Skipper debacle back in Late January. He made a take on Godzilla so bad that it brought 99.9% of the fandom together to clown on him!

I even compiled a playlist of Dr. Skipper Hit Pieces on YouTube.
So one of the reaction videos to this Doktor Skipper started playing while I was working. Never saw the original.

Normally, these running commentaries go in one ear and out the other but after awhile I couldn't believe how fucking stupid this Skipper guy is. It's not even "hot takes" I disagree with, he's just factually wrong.

"Most people don't even know Godzilla originated in Japan!"
"Godzilla is a public IP!"

I'm still getting through this but what a train wreck of a video.

There are a lot quote tweets in response to this interview Yamazaki had. These were the most autistic I've seen:

Gurantee you none of these cockfags even knew who the guy was before Minus Zero and even then never watched his movies, just read the wikipedo articles.

Are any of the comments roasting him?
 
Didn't know this had been announced a while ago but just saw that Criterion has a physical release of Godzilla Vs Biollante coming out March 18. I think they have most the Heisei era on their streaming service but I would kill for a physical collection eventually like they did the Showa era. Cover looks okay but doesn't compare to the poster.

Biollante's color scheme looking more like King Ghidora is gonna be confusing when the next movie's Criterion cover gets revealed lmao. Still badass, though.
I figured they were trying to cash in on KG since Biollante's pretty obscure, like that Joker 2 cover that just is like JOKER 2
