OK, this is getting weird. That was terrible and looks like it was made in PowerPoint.

god i hope the real reason they're not showing anything is because they're using suits this time around.

The movie plays out like normal until the last ten minutes, when everything suddenly switches Big Man Japan-style to guys in suits beating the poo poo out of each other.

The carrier fight is the only scene but it happens three times, Run Lola Run style

It's just following the Netflix and every other digital release ad pattern: lots of short teasers, full trailer a month or so before release, second trailer week before release.

Maybe they don't want to release a trailer that ends up better than the actual movie.

That's a legit great trailer for a legit great movie. The KOTM trailers were awesome, unlike the movie. The Skull Island final trailer was as good as the movie: loving awesome.

The music, the editing :swoon:

Skull Island was so rad on that first watch. The helicopter attack where he just wrecks everything was an incredible intro for that version of the character.

Lmao, what a way to kick off GvK's marketing blitz. I would have cut together a trailer for free tbh. In return for getting to see the movie first, obviously.

Synopsis: Godzilla has climbed up on an aircraft carrier and doesn't want to get down. He doesn't need food or anything, so he's just going to sit there. The US Navy, frustrated and somewhat embarrassed, comes up with increasingly harebrained schemes to dislodge Godzilla and hopefully stop the other armed forces from making fun of them.

It's a remake of the 1993 WWF event that took place on the deck of the USS Intrepid. Godzilla is Yokozuna and Kong must try to bodyslam him.

G'14: Too many people, we want to see the monsters
KOTM: Still too many people and they suck even when we see the monsters
GvK: Literally no people, one single fight for 90 minutes, still fails at whatever the box office is supposed to be now, kaiju movies not only stop being made in the US, but they stop being imported and the government orders all physical copies destroyed

KotM's big sequence with Rodan is one of my favorite bits of a kaiju movie that I can think of. To me, that bit with Rodan's awakening and flight over the city has defined how dragons should be depicted.

This is kind of off topic, but what is the Ultra fandom term for when an episode of a series gets experimental and maybe a little psychedelic and introspective for an episode? I think the Akio Jissoji directed episodes were the original example?

Burkion, I'm sure you know this.

"A good episode"

Sadly there's not a specific term that I could point out- these are so in grained and foundational that they're just accepted as part of the experience, and sorely missed when they don't happen.

Surrealist style has always played well with Ultraman and he's directed some of the best episodes of the franchise
