Barto posted:It's not the same plot, but the basic structure is the same. It's not spoiling it at all to say it's basically Evangelion re-imagined as a Kaiju film. i was kidding you.i knew you didn't mean the exact plot :p interesting you bring up it being evangelion reimagined tho, the later episodes of eva are basically 30 minute kaiju films, especially once it becomes clear the evas are all living beings. and in EOE the fight between Asuka and the Mass-Produced Evas is shot like a kaiju fight, tho massively faster then fights in any of the Zilla fims

Timby posted:The last time I saw it, I was in the hospital and high as a kite on painkillers, but I seem to recall it being a halfway decent movie up until the point where they get to Madison Square Garden, when it becomes a 30-minute raptor chase sequence. the 30 minute raptor chase was the only part i liked, i wish it had been all that and less playing peek-a-boo in the city with a 100 foot tall monster

The REAL Goobusters posted:Saw this last night and I loving loved it. This was way better than Godzilla 2014, all the actor performances were great and much better compared to the 2014 one (minus Bryan Cranston obviously). I loved the themes and the message this movie had, as well as the heavy political satire. Its gonna be very difficult for Western audiences to relate since it focuses so much on the Japanese government and how they slowly respond to everything. All of the early reviews I feel like missed the entire point of this movie, but I've been seeing a lot more positive reviews now that it is out here. Want to try to watch it again sometime this weekend if I have a chance. bueracracy- an entirely japanese phenomenon apparently

gfanikf posted:No you shouldn't. What makes Shin Godzilla such a success is that it is so good when Evangelion was such a steaming pile of horse poo poo. Seriously it's a week of my life I will never get back and I greatly regret it. Just know Shin is great, Evangelion is not and you'll be fine. hmmm, nah

Snowglobe of Doom posted:It's hard to apply a label because we can't really tell what's going on there. The flaked off parts they found left behind which they thought might grow into a new creature would be an example of fragmentation, the new creatures growing from Goji's tail would be ... budding, perhaps? We don't really know what kind of reproduction it was without knowing whether those new creatures developed from unfertilized eggs (parthenogenesis) or from sperm (sperm-dependent parthenogenesis) or just grew like dividing cells. i meant the 98 zilla, tho i guess it applies to this one as well, different processes of reproduction aside (budding vs eggs)

oh, okay i get you now burkion. my hope is that all the budget goes to kaiju animations, designs, and fights and the human segments are all the last 2 episodes of evangelion not even the slightest bit sarcastic, pseudo-intellectual musings on the nature of kaiju interspersed with high octane godzilla fighting would own
