G14 was fine the 1st time around but I haven't been able to sit through it again without getting bored. KotM was a mess but I had a good time. Godzilla vs. Kong was dope but had a lot of distractingly hokey vfx shots.

What I'm saying is Shin Godzilla is best Godzilla and it's not even close.

Shin Godzilla loving rules.

Also Skull Island is dumb as hell and I loved every stupid minute of it.

I know I saw KOTM and GvK but I don't remember much of either besides giant monsters fighting.

The best thing about Godzilla vs King Kong was everyone getting surprisingly heated debating who would win.

It definitely will always be the best besides the original or/and the top three if ones just as good somehow come out in the future, though I have a massive soft spot for Godzilla vs. Destoroyah which Shin Godzilla does borrow some beats from. I love that movie.

Shin Godzilla is very good but gets a bit long in the tail between the middle and the climax IMO. 1954 Godzilla is basically a perfect film.

KOTM is filled with awesome looking shots that seem designed precisely for a kick rear end trailer. I love the overhead shot of Rodan and the wake of destruction.

Best bit of the movie by far is the fighter pilot ejecting but he falls straight into Rodan's mouth lmao

I have a feeling a Shin Godzilla 2 would resemble Aliens than a traditional Godzilla movie, based off the hints at the tail end of the film.

Say what you want about the Monsterverse but they definitely manage some kickass visuals. The Godzilla 2014 trailer with the HALO jump comes to mind.

Also some of the discourse about 2014 was lol, like some poster picking up on a blatantly obvious framing theme of the movie and calling it a 'mistake they keep making'.

The game is about a guy in a windowless submarine exploring an extraterrestrial ocean, and the only methods he knows what is going on outside are a display showing environmental measurements, sonar, and a camera that takes way too long to process its images.

I can see this being made as a super scary low budget film.

Can Markiplier pull it off? I dunno, I admit I pretty much only know him from this:

I do know he has made other projects though. So I won't dismiss him out of hand.

That wouldn't even be out of place I mentioned how Shin Godzilla borrows some stuff from Godzilla vs. Destoroyah's plot but see 34m15s they already have smartguns and smaller creatures and stuff lol

The neat part is that the creator of the game, David Szymanski (most known for DUSK), is also involved with the project. With Andrew Hulshult (behind the music for both a ton of indie shooters and the Doom Eternal DLC) is making the soundtrack.
Which is frankly a wild combination all in all.

His choose-your-own-adventure science fiction epic last year was practically a feature-length film, given how much content was filmed for it.

But yeah, seeing that, he can handle a set, cast & crew, editing, and a lot of the same things a film director would face. Everything there is basically the quality of a low-budget DTV release.

Not really sure about Markiplier, really don't know much about him, but those two being involved makes the project a lot more interesting. At the very least seems like it will have a great soundtrack.

But yeah good idea for low budget indie.

So I watched Renfield and it is a fun, albeit slight, movie. The over the top action is fun but the story has some dips as well as a big (scene missing) issue where the main characters are running from the bad guys and it just cuts to Awkwafina waking up in a new location.

Craig is a legitimately talented actor who was clearly having so much fun whenever he wasn't playing Bond that it makes me sad he spent so much time making movies that turned out to be not very good, overall.

See also that interview where he was asked if a woman should play James Bond and he was like, "no, nobody should play james bond"

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

When are they going to make a movie about that one variety of vampire that only sucks blood out of your feet, so the only way to defeat it is for two people to sleep in the same sleeping bag but pointed in opposite directions so that when the vampire tries to suck feet they discover a head so when they go to the other end of the bag they discover another head and they have a divide by zero error thinking the person in the sleeping bag has heads at either end and no feet and dies. Tarantino would love it.
