Probably Gigan, because of he is the Kaiju incarnation of Jigsaw....
Godzillatheking123,
I think it mostly comes down to the idea that Shindo was a main character wanted us to sympathize with. In order to help set up Godzilla as a "heroic" figure against King Ghidorah and, later, Shindo's tragic end, he had to be painted as having a sort of bond with Godzilla. The best way to depict that, as far as Omori was concerned, was for Godzillasaurus to come to the rescue. And the only thing to rescue Shindo from was the American forces.
I think the resentment is there, but mostly at the expense of character work.
56 now. Looks like we're in for a colossal dud. Hey Legendary tried, But no one cares about Godzilla movies as much as they hoped.
My dad made me a fan, I remember when I was four he showed me GMK and I was in love ever since.
Godzilla vs Megaguirus: I find this one meh as well, but maybe a little bit worse than 2000. The main character is a Haruo type, only thinking about Godzilla and always saying how much she hates him and wants to kill him. The self-employed scientist guy was just your average comic relief, nothing really special about him. Look I know he was just a kid, but that little boy was an idiot. Did he really think taking the egg with him was a good idea? And worse, the main character says that the Meganula invasion wasn’t his fault! Uh, yea it was! Also, everyone seems so calm and sure that the black hole plan will work. It’s a BLACK HOLE! Don’t they realize how easily wrong it could’ve gone. I don’t care if it’s miniaturized, it still could’ve made untold death and destruction if it went wrong. If you want to know a scene that I actually though was really good, it was the back ally scene. It was kinda disturbing and reminded me of the aggregate Destoroyah Scenes. Megaguirus herself looks really creepy looking, but that effect is sort of lost because for the millionth time the wings are stiff. The fight between her and Godzilla itself is good, but like Millennium it drags on too long. Honestly this movie bored me to tears in some places, and I remember almost falling asleep during one scene. Watch this film only if you have the endurance. 2/5.
Godzilla 2000 Millennium: It’s okay, but it’s nothing really spectacular. The main character actually interested me a little bit. He has a past at a college that practiced unethical science, he has a friend who works on the opposing side, and he had an interesting sub-plot about using Godzilla’s cells for medical purposes (sadly it went nowhere.) Besides that however, he mostly felt like a a underdeveloped character to me. The female reporter was kind of annoying, she spent 90% of the movie complaining and moaning. The daughter is by the far the most bland character. She has very little screen time and her acting is almost as emotionless as Hayden Christiansen when he was in the SW prequels. I laughed when she was supposed to have an emotional moment with her dad after the blowing up tower scene, cause I could not believe they expected me to get teary-eyed over this girl. I love Katigiri, he’s just so over the top. He is just so over the top evil and he always had these big bulging eyes. Can you say ham? However, I though he would have worked better as a grey anti-villain rather than pure evil since considering his role as the protector of Japan. I will say Godzilla looks really good in this movie. It’s different but not too different. The green skin and purple dorsal plates go really well to together and the suit seems to be able to express a decent range of emotion (not as good as the Heisei suit though). I really didn’t care for Orga. He just seems like a combination of tropes of foes from previous Godzilla films. He does have a decent design, but I didn’t really see it as spectacular. The fight between Godzilla and Orga itself good, but it drags on way to long and I just wanted it to end after awhile. Overall, this movie is just kinda meh, 2/5.
I thought it was at 58%. Huh
It has came in.... It is currently at 55%
Unfortunately, I don’t have Godzilla 1998. I hoped to watch it on Netflix but it got taken down. So the next review is for Godzilla 2000: Millennium.
Rebirth of Mothra Trilogy: It was cool to see Mothra have her own individual films again, but having said that there was a lot of wasted potential in this trilogy. None of the human characters in any of these movies are interesting, they are either extremely bland, generic, irritating, or a combination. I actually liked Belvera cause she was super hammy like the wicked witch of the west or Rita repulsa. Both of the Elias actors are good, but their acting can be a little over the top at times, especially when Mothra/Mothra Leo gets hurt. Sadly, Mothra’s stiffness hasn’t improved at all and as a result the beam spamming is in full force. The only fight that I enjoyed throughout this entire trilogy was between Cretaceous Ghidorah and Mothra Leo cause they actually had a lot of physical attacks. The scripts are full of problems. Every movie feels like a rehash of the previous, the pacing can be nonexistent at times, and also lots of plot holes, not to mention a really immature and childish tone. I think people should only watch these films if their big Mothra fans and have the virtue of patience. My rankings for the films are:
Rebirth of Mothra: 2/5
Rebirth of Mothra II: 1/5
Rebirth of Mothra III: 3/5
This just in! A NEW FEATURETTE HAS BEEN DISCOVERED!
Well this is the first look we will get for the next movie. So we have to see.
They are really cranking out the promos now. Good, about time.
G. H. (Gman): All good points. I guess to some extent it is open to interpretation. But one certainly can see some resentment towards the US if they want to look for that, I suppose.
^Holy Kaiju crap, you're right. They added Masers!
If you pause carefully during the MONARCH underwater base scene, you can make out MASER TURRETS.
I'm loving this G-team. It reminds me of the G-force of the Heisei era.
It's really more about unchecked capitalism and unchecked nationalism than anything else. According to Ed Godziszewski, director Kazuki Omori has denied any anti-American sentiment and apparently been confused by the accusations.
His depiction of Pacific War combat doesn't particularly paint the U.S. Naval forces in a positive light, which may or may not speak to the socio-political climate in Japan that lead to where it is now. Of course Shusuke Kaneko targeted that topic in another King Ghidorah movie, exactly 10 years later.
Either way, I think Omori's depiction of the Pacific War is worth talking about. It certainly has a slant on it, whether he intended for it to be seen that way or not.
YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Yeah, stay away from the G-Team promo if you wanna avoid new footage :P
Stay strong Lazy.... stay strong! You just need to wait for Friday!
I love how Mothra smack Rodan. She was like "No. Stop it." XD
I'll stay at the end!
I know what it's about
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
There was absolutely no need to make this its own own topic, especially after your last topic of literally the exact same thing. Please avoid double posting and try to add more substance to your topics to encourage more engagement.
Locking this now.
Role playing is not what these forums are used for. Also, creating new topics for fictional characters and random role playing detracts from other topics about the upcoming Godzilla films. Please refrain from posting topics of this nature, if we open an RPG forum, feel free. But until then, no more topics of this nature will be permitted.
Thank you.
I like how you made Ford more likable, making his death more tragic and even more heroic in a way. I also how like how you used the Oxygen Destroyer.
Not bad. I really like that you used the Oxygen Destroyer.
I’d have to say Keizer Ghidorah.
Yeah, let's break up the rest of our POVs into chapters XD
