baumer Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Also, implying that Expendables' script was anything close to brilliant: So much better than Godzilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart360 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Yep, they pretty much nailed the visual homage to the 1954 film. Unfortunately the story isn't anywhere near as good. I never really liked that picture as Godzilla looks about 2000 feet in it, it looks a bit silly although i know it was only for marketing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Watching Godzilla, King of Monsters, it's very entertaining. It is entertaining, but is a big step down from the original. They cut out a lot of the footage that made it so powerful, probably to not offend American audiences. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 So I finally watched godzilla yesterday in Imax 3d and I thought it was a good film. Sure it had its problems but that ending was one of the most beautiful shot action scenes I've seen in quite some time, it looked amazing. and I loved that airport scene, especially how they cut to the little boy watching them fight on the news, that was hilarious 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goujira is the better movie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Panda Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 One of the writers is a writer for Expendables. How do you write the brilliant Expendables and then come up with a dud like Godzilla?Godzilla is a much better movie than the Expendables and has a much better script. The Expendables is only entertaining because old action stars blow stuff up. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also most people running studios back then, were really dumb when it came to releasing foreign films. Can you believe the kinds of edits they to did to later Godzilla films. It even affected the titles. I mean seriously the second Godzilla movie was called Gigantis: The Fire Breathing Monster and Godzilla Vs. Mothra was called Godzilla Vs. The Thing, despite the Mothra film previously being released as Mothra in the U.S. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 The 22JS/HTTYD2 opening weekend is going to be amazing. I can't wait for that weekend because of the headlines "Box Office 'Jumps' Up, Stops 'Dragon' Around" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
