Xenotaris

I dont think its the worst thing. Plus for the JP franchise it definitely wraps the themes up in a nice little bow

sonictiger

That wasnt my point, and the attempt at anything is what puts it above GvK. Because imo gvk tries absoluteky nothing, hence Why i dont like it

Godzilla PS4 is also my first Godzilla video game

It increases every time you visit or when the page refreshes like logging in, switching to page, editing, or posting a reply will count as a new view

PS4: Godzilla is the best game, I love how it is so accurate and realistic.

Of course! But I have a question. If you keep returning back to this topic, will it increase the number of views or does it count if 1 account views this?

yeah I'm tired of seeing human villains over shadowing the monster antagonists.

Except it's poorly handled, HinikunaGoji.  Human villains are a tricky concept in the particular context of giant...well...things being the main focus of movies.

Xenotaris, I feel like Godzilla 2014 and Skull Island had better logic and didn't retcon previous scenes unlike KOTM and GVK.  Also, style over substance is basically VFX and big set pieces being prioritized over important things like characters and story.

As for your thing about human villains, no franchise does it worse than the five Michael Bay Transformers movies.  And what's funny is that in the fourth one the worst written human villain is killed by a character whose characterization got already butchered several times throughout the franchise.

Thats like typical movie stuff though

HinikunaGoji

Human protagonists surviving being inside a volcanic ash cloud, I like Chris Pratt and his character Owen but realistically he should have fried when the ash cloud got him

With Dominion I didn't like the over emphasis on human villians in that movie

I like the suit pairings, its nice and it shows just how the OG gigan design holds up to newer designs

Interesting that they would pair the Showa Gigan with the Final Wars Godzilla. Looks great either way. 

Well really it actually feels like it build the mythology of the titans and preserves everything i liked about kotm as a whole.

Honestly out of the bunch Kotm is by far my favorite. I love 14' to death but i think the attempt and potiential of Kotm was awesome. imo the first 3 films are pretty solid.

Gvk just like

If i want to watch the movie ill watch the fights on youtube

Xenotaris

Im really confused what that means about FK and D

1. the introduction of new characters can make or break a sequel especially if they are thrown in and were supposed to know who they are

2. Ummm can you elaborate on this one

3. I'm sorry I don't understand what Style over substance really means in this context, so I need more detail I'm kind of a dummy when it come to these things

HinikunaGoji: What are the things you liked about it?

@HinikunaGoji: Thanks man! What are the positives and negatives you had with this story? Also, I apologize for the lack of pictures. I haven’t figured out how to include them yet. Lol.

Wish they would've used Sakai's 1954 replica. It would've been interesting to see the original design in battle.

HinikunaGoji and Xenotaris, I don't hate the MonsterVerse.  I think Godzilla Vs. Kong gave me what I wanted to see.  I got to see these oversized animals duke it out three times.  The movie was loads of fun.  But there are a lot of problems too.  And I agree that we're starting to get into modern movie pitfalls, those being:

1. New characters are being shoved in for no rhyme or reason and stifling development of existing characters

2. Constant contradictions and poor logic 

3. Style over substance (even though when it comes to GVK that was the better option actually)

Any thoughts?

so there still using that final wars suit? hm.

"MV does not have superhuman protags? "
Well not in the monsterverse but in I've seen this crop up in Jurassic World's sequel movies, looking at you Fallen Kingdom and Dominion

you know what we could really need? an anguirus short.

maybe then freaking bandai will freaking make a freaking sh monsterarts anguirus!!!

cool,lookin suit do.

MV does not have superhuman protags? 

And it could be argued godzilla was a good guy before a neutral force.

I dont think theres some quality being lost in all films now.

I hope its better than the hedorah short. That short was pretty good but the kaiju got obscured all the time. That was my only problem.

Did anyone else use toget very offended when people called gigan a chicken?

Also, kind of crazy that we're getting two official short films with Gigan this year, hopefully this means that we'll get to see him in a future movie.

More love for the Alien Cybernetic Buzzsaw Chicken!

I hope I'm helping

I just don't care for the super hero human that now inhabit every movie regardless if its a super hero or not. I miss when the human protagonists in the Jurassic Park movies were very vulnerable and helpless in the face of a dinosaur or when Godzilla was neither a good guy nor a bad guy, he was like a storm, an indiscriminating beast of destruction that only saves the world from a greater threat when it invades his territory.

Yay, this topic got 2000 views!

I dont think the MCU overall is a pitfall or its influence is a bad thing

HinikunaGoji

I don't hate the MonsterVerse, I wish it well but it is falling into some pitfalls that plague most long running franchises. It feels like a lot of modern movies are trying to be MCU movies, we see this MCU influence in Jurassic World's sequels and even the MonsterVerse itself

This quickly turned into a MV hate train... to which I contributed, but i feel the point of not understanding the hate behind hollow earth is valid. Its up to opinion and GojiraFan2013 is preety right to ask why. For many GvK was a very fulfilling film that lived up to the hype and maybe the tone i would have liked is not the same tone they would have liked. 

now some positive things said could be Great

sorry I forgot to include Kong Skull Island with Godzilla 2014

Eh, Kong: Skull Island was definitely a lot more streamlined than Godzilla 2014.  I still find G'14 to be my least favorite anyway.  Or maybe my totally evident Stockholm Syndrome of Millie Bobby Brown is blinding a couple of issues with King of The Monsters.  I think I may need to rewatch the MonsterVerse during my ultimate Kaiju watch-a-thon that may or may not be coming soon.

Xenotaris, to truly answer your question...the reason why movies get to be so long now is because of too many plot points.  So maybe we just need longer runtimes?

I would have love to see the cancelled 1994 American Godzilla

I feel movies should tackle one or two major plot point at a time, Godzilla 2014 is the best Monsterverse movie so far because it wasn't stuffed to the gills with plot over plot like King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs Kong

G. H. (Gman), thank you!

And everyone, remember this: GVK is far from the worst thing WB has done.

The Team population has suddenly stopped increasing...

sonictiger,
Those are pretty accurate.
