That makes sense

you responded first so you get 20000000000000000 dollas

(also your adicted to this site so go outside)

For good reason. The Anime Trilogy isn't half bad.

Next random fact:
Baragon wasn't featured prominently in Destroy All Monsters because the suit was modified into four different monsters for Ultra Q & Ultraman. (Pagos, Neronga, Magular & Geronga) By the time it was restored into Baragon for Destroy All Monsters, it was too worn to be used for extensive shooting.

how is that a spoiler hinikunagoji?

HinikunaGoji,
It's your call. As a former critic I think the best thing to do is to read reviews after you see a movie. As I mentioned before, the job of a movie critic is not to tell you whether or not a movie is good. Their job is to get you to think about a movie via their view--No matter how aggressive it may be.

I think movie critics are there to help you organize your own thoughts about a film. As a result I prefer audiences read my reviews only after they had seen said film for themselves.

So I shouldn’t read reviews until after I see the movie

There’s more coming.....

By ignoring the score, watching the movie and reading critics' actual words rather than looking at their rating--In that order.

Whew, atleast the existing reviews are good. :>

Ahh.... The real question, how do we win the war?

HinikunaGoji,
The same place you can find all movie reviews. Behind enemy lines: Rotten Tomatoes.

I would say Daisuke Serizawa Dr Yamane or Miki Saegusa

@Gman where can I find these reviews?

but at the begining of final wars the narrarator says hes a mutant HUMAN

I mean, if we were talking about just straight up "characters" I think it would be fine.

Honestly, I consider kaiju "events" more than characters. They're the main visual everyone comes to the movie for, but it's the characters in the story that make the conflict with the monsters work--Whether they be human or alien.

You said the the controller X then changed it to the half-xilien guy, no fair now I look like a dummy

okay he Is a mutant but ime pretty sure he qualifies as a human

B R U H

hey you changed your answer

futuriens

ozaki from final wars.

yes

These are just early reactions from critics and publicists on twitter. Actual reviews would be longer and are technically not allowed to drop until March 29th. (Though some have slipped online early, as things normally do.)

Oh, I thought that these were the reviews. Woops.

I could, but this stuff will become pretty obsolete once actual reviews are written.

(Although there are currently 6 official reviews up.)

F. Glenn and Katsura Mafune are probably my two favorites.

Bonus award goes to Yoshimura from Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster. I love Takarada playing against type.

But really, let's be honest, Invasion of Astro-Monster had an all-star cast. It's pretty much why you watch the movie:

Ikr

@G.H.(Gman)

"Your mom" 

Akane Yashiro(pilot of kiryu). 

Ok, update on this topic.

It's more likely that Kong will win.

Hopefully, anyways.

Don't know

Does this warrant a temporary pin? So people can come back and read after they watch the movie?

Hmm... thats a good one. Do the Bilsaludo(post mechagodzilla absorbtion) count?

"Let them fight" is a great film quote.  Period.

Ishiro Serizawa

I've already said mine multiple times.

Madison Russell

and maybe Ishiro Serizawa from the first 2 modern movies

1st comment

well yeah but which one is your favorite?

I don't know if the Mothra priests and aliens exactly qualify.

The "-jin" suffix usually refers to "person" or "race" in the right context, which is why it's sort of weird calling the Shobijin, kaijin. And because there's no real English equivalent of the word "kaijin" it gets harder. The best English approximations have been "mutant", "supervillain" or just "monster". (Like kaiju.)

It seems aliens usually are provided their own "person" or "race" designation, ala, "X-Seijin" (literally the, "Planet X People" or "The People from Planet X") which has been retroactively dubbed "Xilliens" for international marketing purposes.

The "mutant" designation seems to fit closer to Matango, the H-Man, Showa Frankenstein, The Human Vaper, etc. Even the Titans from the Attack on Titan films have been called this. I don't think that works as well considering they're giant, but the debate comes from the fact they start as normal sized, ala Toho's Frankenstein.

I'm not sure if the MonsterVerse has any kaijin, the closest they have are the ageless Iwi tribe and the always twin Chinese scientist ladies

Oh I forgot to include the Pacific Rim kaiju and Gamera
