730751, looks like daddy lannister is in it Posted by shygurl, Mon Jul-23-18 02:08 PM I love him, so maybe worth a watch.
730752, I liked the first Godzilla Posted by Mgmt, Mon Jul-23-18 02:58 PM Can't wait for this one
730784, All of the monsters look beautiful Posted by stylez dainty, Tue Jul-24-18 06:27 PM The first one had its faults, but Godzilla himself was not one of them.
730786, It's Godzilla. Do they really need to shoehorn an adolescent white kid Posted by Cold Truth, Tue Jul-24-18 09:31 PM And his family drama? Because that's what this will be about: An adolescent white kid and his family, as though we don't have enough of those already. The rest will be a backdrop.
735127, Sadly, you were right. Posted by bwood, Sat Jun-01-19 02:48 AM Fuck this shit.
730787, I was whatever until i saw Tywin Lannister Posted by Mynoriti, Tue Jul-24-18 09:58 PM I'll watch anything with Charles Dance in it

732854, I am...aroused Posted by Melanism, Mon Dec-10-18 02:18 PM
732855, damn this shit looks crazy. i hope they dont fuck it up. Posted by Reeq, Mon Dec-10-18 06:14 PM
735122, I mean...at least it's better than the first.... Posted by bwood, Thu May-30-19 07:47 PM It's a very dope monster movie buried 5 feet deep in human bullshit. Use them to launch the story and keep it moving. I don't give a fuck about character arcs. Between the first, Kong: Skull Island and this movie they suck at writing the humans anyway. Also, is it me or did Millie Bobbie Brown suck in this shit? SPOILERS. SERIOUSLY SPOILERS I'm glad Ken Watanabe and Sally Hawkins had more to do this time, but holy shit are they still done dirty. Disgusting.
735123, nope Posted by BigWorm, Fri May-31-19 06:26 AM Sally Hawkins gets done dirty in this film? That's a hard NO on this movie.
735129, Nothing here is better than the first, nothing Posted by Mgmt, Sat Jun-01-19 11:34 AM Too much human trash here. None of these characters or more likeable than the weakest monster. Wasted Mothra too. Fuck this movie in the fuckin ass >It's a very dope monster movie buried 5 feet deep in human >bullshit. Use them to launch the story and keep it moving.

735133, I liked everything about the monsters fucking each other up Posted by mrhood75, Sat Jun-01-19 11:55 PM That action was dope. The human stuff was pretty bad. Only people I even sort of cared about were Ken Watanabe and Charles Dance. And I guess Ziyi Zhang was fine. Kyle Chandler and Vera Farmiga were especially awful. And I feel like it went beyond that the fact that they had very little to work with; their acting was particularly bad. But honestly I was okay with it overall. The action sequences were enough to make it enjoyable for me. But I'll say that I really hated their ham-fisted telegraphing about where the next one of these is going to go at the very end. ("He's on our side!" "....For now.")
735142, Angry Kyle Posted by Boogiedwn, Mon Jun-03-19 07:29 AM Dude stayed pissed off the whole movie This is gonna be a good TNT movie to watch in the background, skip the dialogue parts just to watch the monsters fight.
740582, Man, fuck this movie. It should be called Karen of the Monsters Posted by Castro, Wed Feb-03-21 10:15 PM Vera Famiga's character was so bad even Tywin Lannister was ready to say "DRACARYS"
740589, Great Godzilla. Very good Titans overall. Posted by Cold Truth, Thu Feb-04-21 07:28 PM I wanted to see the main family get eaten, or burned alive, or trampled, or otherwise murdered by massive mythological creatures in the worst way though.
740605, Traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaash! Posted by Nodima, Fri Feb-05-21 04:59 PM Wow! I'll let people have the weird affection they have for 2014's similarly dreary, bland human drama 'cause it's got a lot of cleverness with how it displays all that badness and an all-time kaiju murder to cap it off, but dude. Take all the wrong lessons from both Godzilla and Kong, have the audacity for most of your best ideas to just be retreads of 2014 and figure out how to tie better acting and dialogue to even more unlikable characters and there's something really, really special-bad about this movie. It even sucks to look at, like a working cut of a Zach Snyder film before the visual effects team swoops in and saves it. Why'd Ghidorah have to make it dark and rainy all the time unless a lot of this movie looked like shit and they didn't have a better solution? ~~~~~~~~~ "This is the streets, and I am the trap." � Jay Bilas http://www.popmatters.com/pm/archive/contributor/517 Hip Hop Handbook: http://tinyurl.com/ll4kzz
741053, This shit still sucks upon rewatch. Posted by bwood, Tue Mar-30-21 06:15 PM Like it makes sense to center it around Monarch since they've been established in the first film and KONG: SKULL ISLAND, but fuck me putting family drama front and center with unlikable characters with qustionable (at best) motivations. Yes the fights are awesome but fuck me is this movie dark with a annoying blue hue for 90% of the runtime. Still tight about Ken Watanabe and Sally Hawkins.
