There's a haint in the foothills of NC; the haint of the #3 chevy. The rich have formed a holy alliance to exorcise it but they'll never fucking catch him.

considering that Godzilla vs. Kong is probably the last Western-produced Godzilla movie in our lifetimes, I hope you're right.

They've got a new series in the works, but not much has come out, probably waiting for Legendary to get Kong out.

news about the rising sea levels...

but, in all seriousness, I'm close to 30 now, and if they do a serious Godzilla movie by the time I'm 50, I will be very surprised. Just a feeling.

Last February at Wonder Festival in Chiba there was a soft vinyl figure of that chap put out and holy poo poo it sold out instantly.

Of course later that day it was going for $500 on Yahoo Japan auctions (it was an $80 figure)

I'm going to call my son into the room with the question, "Do you want to see some Kong VS Godzilla footage?" I'll report back if he doesn't murder me.

Edit: I have the greatest son. He kept a straight face and then said, "The CGI looks great." Turned nine in September.

Oh ok, so MechaGodzilla showing up will be how Kong and G reach the inevitable stalemate.

So the left over head from KOTM will be put in the Mecha Godzilla body? And it will pull a Robocop 2 and go crazy looking for Nuke?

Mecha as a concept is stupid as gently caress you just have to roll with it. The two mechagodzilla movies capping off the Showa era franchise are rad as hell once you get over the silliness hump.

It's stupid to us but he'll probably go bananas over it. My first introduction to Mechagodzilla was a robot godzilla built by apes from outer space. You know, high art not at all dumb shlock.

I know this iteration of Godzilla isn't supposed to be hard science fiction, but the hollow earth and impossibly huge monsters don't rip my suspension of disbelief to shreds. Edwards did a fairly admirable job of presenting a, "What would it be like if a giant monster really happened," approach. Dipshit stretched as close to the breaking point as possible, but he did somehow manage to do KG and not have it be cheesy.

Mecha[x] is so far beyond anything that makes the slightest sense, I mean, people talk about how Rian Johnson poo poo on J.J. Abrams with The Last Jedi and that Abrams returned the favor with RoS, but in terms of progression from one overall feel to another, the world of 2014 Godzilla to one with Mechagodzilla is far more dramatic.

Oh no doubt about it, he loves it. We've argued about it and I insisted that they wouldn't do it because it's so far from the tone they established. I'm a loving genius.

I mean it feels like it’ll be hard to really build to in the course of one film, but... this is probably the last of this series so gently caress it let’s go wild, make Final Wars but at ten times the budget.
