Godzilla keeps on looking better as he ages too.
Tf you on about? Godzilla peaked 50 years ago: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n9Bg0C8ECms
I prefer my kaiju more rugged, that one looks like a palette swapped Barney.
You mean Barney was just a palette swapped Hanna-Barbera Godzilla.
Yeah yeah yeah six of one half a dozen of the other.
We’re saying the same thing and what I’m saying is that Hanna-Barbara Godzilla is completely unfuckable.
Well, obviously. You should have opened with that. Totally unfuckable.
Yep, Barney started in the 90s while this was 70s.
Minus One was so freaking good.
Shin Godzilla too. 👍
I really liked it as a movie, but there was this underlying “we were the real victims in WWII” message I was getting from it too, which bothered me.
There was underlying “people are the real victims of wars”. They cover it as well during some dialogue where someone is recounting how cavalier the government and military had been with human lives. How easy it was for them to throw away lives in their quest for power. I found that it made a universal political and ethical statement without ever picking a side.
EDIT: I watched it in Japanese with subtitles. There have been complaints that the english dub version has a lot of changes that switch the meaning of a scene.
I watched the dub and thought it was pretty savage towards the Imperial Japanese government.
Yeah, it’s a critical piece toward the government at the time. I love that line by the professor about how the Imperial Japanese doesn’t value life, so now it’s the time, and how the guy that blame everything on the MC are now asking him to survive. Both Shin and Minus One is basically calling out the government of the respective era.
If they could make a Godzilla vs. Gamera movie I would be so happy
Would just love to see that acceptance speech.
Godzilla: How many fucking cities do I have to obliterate to win an Oscar already!
Leo: Damn dude.
Andrew: Xander!
Xander: Matthew Broderick did not kill Godzilla. He killed a giant green lizard thing that was not Godzilla.
Could have gotten there a little sooner, too, with Shin Godzilla.
