A little while ago I watched another Ryuhei Kitamura movie, Sky High, which is about a cop trying to track down a serial killer, unbeknownst to him with the help of the ghost of one of the victims. Like 20 minutes in I was like, "huh, I guess this is a pretty normal crime thriller with a paranormal twist. I guess there's not going to be a ton of sword fights" and I have never been wronger about anything in my life.

I loved Godzilla as a child and was so hyped when my mom brought home Godzilla vs King Kong on VHS.

It was so bad and dull and stupid, but I loved Godzilla so I forced my way through it -- surely the pay-off was gonna be worth cause Godzilla was gonna whoop the poo poo out of that stupid monkey.

Then Kong won and I was devastated. I'm still not over it.

This was originally all of the film, but than bad test audience reactions made them go back and add in all the pointless fighting stuff.

Man, gently caress test audiences, don't know classic cinema when they see it.

After Kill Bill part one I joked that part two would be everyone sitting down and talking about their feelings. It was.

On a related note I rewatched the original Godzilla vs King Kong fight on Youtube recently and I'd forgotten how blatantly they'd pulled King Kong being powered up by lightening out of their asses.

5:40 if for some reason you don't want to watch 10 minutes of men in monster suits rolling around.

That's because the original idea was Frankenstein vs Godzilla. It was going to be Frankenstein that got made big and strong by lighting.
