bballman24 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Yes because that's what Godzilla was trying to do. Nobody is trying to argue that it did it as well. Yup. Also, it was following other Godzilla films too to an extent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bballman24 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 A post I saw and kind of chuckled He's a force of nature, an animal, an anti hero... A Dark Knight lol Though I don't necessarily see Godzilla as an anti-hero. He didn't give a fuck about anything. So he was basically Clint Eastwood.

Caesar Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) I actually find it interesting that people would use Jurassic Park as an example of a better movie than Godzilla. They both have a lot of the same flaws and in some areas I think Godzilla is actually better. I like JP but its success was due to it having never before seen effects, if they released it for the first time today then it would be getting the exact same criticisms as Godzilla.

At the time, there was definitely some (relatively minor) criticism of the kids and the total cliche of their relationship with Grant. Let's not forget it "bogs down" in the middle too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesar Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) In 2017, witness the greatest battle of all time Why would he fight Godzilla. Godzilla only causes destruction accidentally, Superman's the one that was deliberately throwing people into working gas stations.

RobinHood26 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Siting in the waiting room while my brakes are getting done. I've drained my battery 46% reading this whole tread.Jeff Goldblum is king! But Jurassic Park is the best movie ever for many more reasons. And anyone who says Godzilla is better I will personally slap you.Alan and the kids are the best, I mean when thy are in the tree, man I just cry my little eyes out. That ending too! A speechless ending, flying away with that amazing score into the sun. You see Alan and Ellie share that nod and then Alan looks out the window and sees birds flying. OMG the feels Edited May 21, 2014 by Jay Hollywood 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulder Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 It was then revealed off-screen that the kids were Ellie and Alan's the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
