Basebf555 posted:I hope not, it would just end up being Kong/Godzilla vs. an amorphous black blob which I know is something movie studios love to do for some reason but it's never exciting. If they were fighting in, say, the sunny blue-and-greens of the tropical Pacific instead of an apocalyptic urban hellscape, Hedorah would be a great contrasting element and easy to identify.

Got my tickets booked at the local Ultrascreen DLX, which is unfortunately the biggest one available (true IMAX is prohibitively distant, though someday I'd love to take a road trip). Opening-week matinees are AWESOME. Someone at my theater's bar is a serious artist with the chalkboard and regularly draws amazing things for the specials, hopefully they'll do something Godzilla-themed this time and I can snapshot it for the thread. Their Shazam and Avengers boards were muy impressive. McSpanky fucked around with this message at 17:14 on May 23, 2019 |

All the other kaiju, in their natural states, resemble existing creatures and create natural phenomena in their wake. Sometimes they're destructive to humans like Godzilla's landfall at Hawaii creating a tsunami or Rodan's awakening triggering a volcanic eruption, but they're still fundamentally representative of the natural order of life and planet. And like even the natural order of extreme weather and geologic events, they only harm people when people happen to be in their way. But everything about Ghidorah is unnatural, a pointedly destructive force even without considering its alien origins. It resembles no living or extinct creature; it was trapped in the Antarctic ice instead of lying in a state of hibernation or torpor in a home environment; its mere existence creates storms of impossible power -- Monarch reported a category six hurricane surrounding Ghidorah as it headed for the East Coast. It appeared to draw power from the volcano to broadcast its alpha signal worldwide, absorbed electricity from a power main and drained energy from Godzilla by biting him, making it some sort of energy vampire. If the other kaiju are avatars of nature writ large, and our interactions with them lessons about learning to live in harmony with nature lest we tempt fate in overstepping our bounds, then Ghidorah is an avatar of the overstepped boundary itself. It is a "living extinction event", the lifeless future of and by a humanity that refuses to change.

Especially now that he's got a drat rap sheet about it. BiggerBoat posted:The disastrous elements we're shown rarely amount to more than minor inconveniences for anyone. I loved this film for its highs but it really annoyed me when it took Hollywood Action Script shortcuts like this. I mean, we all saw what happened during Katrina and this film's own flashback to San Francisco, are you telling me Boston was evacuated in a calm and orderly fashion to complete emptiness by the time Ghidorah got there?

Basebf555 posted:Yea this immediately jumped out at me in the theater and took me right out of the movie for a few minutes. First I'm thinking "hmmm that's odd that Godzilla just swam right up on them like that" , but then two seconds later he and Ghidorah are just standing on the ice fighting and it makes zero sense how they could be doing that if the water is deep enough for Godzilla to have snuck up on them from below. Climate change has produced exactly the kind of glacier/ice shelf topography to make Godzilla's approach plausible.
