Jordan Vogt-Roberts seems to be entirely locked up by Mental Gear Solid/nearly being killed in Vietnam these days and Gareth Evans seems to have pissed off the Hollywood gods with whatever went down during Rogue One. A shame as they did direct the two best Monsterverse entries.

Every time I watch Godzilla vs Destoroyah I convince myself that I'm not going to cry. There's no way. This movie is just dumb fun with cool monster designs, right? But then we get to Godzilla's death and his son just died and he's so sad and he's clearly in horrible pain and they won't stop shooting him, even as he's dying, and he does that one turn with his mouth wide open but no sound coming out like he's asking why, and the music and the way his fire and soul seep out through his throat with one final, agonizing roar and he's melting gently caress gently caress gently caress oh god I'm not even watching it and I'm getting choked up. It's so loving sad. But that last shot is up there with Shin Godzilla's last shot as one of the coolest moments in the whole franchise. Honestly it might be even better.

How the hell would Kong even react to meeting Mothra? It'd either be the most interesting monster conversation in the world or one of them would just drop the other one into lava without a second thought.

Gripweed posted:maybe Kojima didn't hate Shin Ultraman as much as we thought So I wasn't going to say anything because I wanted to see the general reactions, but when Kojima mentioned seeing Ultraman- that was special advanced screenings, ahead of public release. Meaning, likely, he either couldn't, or simply didn't want to out of respect, say anything BiggerBoat posted:Is it bad? I've been looking around for a way to watch it. Quite the opposite. It's apparently really, really good See the joke here is, if Kojima tweets that he 'saw movie' and doesn't elaborate, he doesn't like it. WHich is largely true. But in this case, he saw it in previews, so he couldn't say much. but now that it's released https://twitter.com/HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN/status/1525800687682355201 (his feed is full of Ultraman and Death Stranding right now) Burkion fucked around with this message at 16:45 on May 15, 2022 |

Everyone I know who's seen it really liked it, but at the same time has said it was not what they were expecting, but that's a good thing. It sounds completely wild. Also the movie program has stated that it is a planned trilogy with the third film being Shin Ultra7

Going by how hes been tweeting a bunch of ultraman stuff today, i think its safe to say he doesnt hate it. That being said it has been all about merch and not the movie itself so idk

Altho wait, he saw it twice, i think that points to the initial tweet him being safe about not spoiling anything

I discussed this a while back, but some of my issues with GvK were the scale of the battles. They moved with absolutely no weight and the camera zipped around them at thousands of miles per hour

They were all mostly really dark, or covered up by weather and dark, which I know helps cover up for the massive amounts of CGI but it makes it awful to watch. What I'm saying is bring back the guy in the suit

# ? May 19, 2022 16:45 |

If GVK was meant to be the 'braindead, what non-kajiju fans think kaiju movies are' movie, it still failed because it had at least 2 movies worth of plot thrown together. Tons of time was spent on the Hollow Earth team and the corporate conspiracy stuff but neither of them got the space to be worthwhile or complete.

Shakman is a legend. He's directed tons of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, so he has experience with epic monsters throwing down. Danny Devito is way more intense than King Caesar.
