Spoiler Alert: They decided to kill off Bryan Cranston in the 2014 movie, But they decided to not kill of Mathew Broderick in this movie. How the hell does that make sense!
This is one of the few times I'm okay with giving a like to a comment that's just quoting the review, because honestly it probably took a lot of work to type that out. And that's saying something, because usually I find quoting something from the review just to get likes to be incredibly lazy. Nice work.
This was so bad, that original makers of Godzilla bought the rights to this movie, made that Godzilla into different character, and made a movie just to kill him off.
Let's see, large city with canyon like buildings able to visually obscure a large moving object? Check! Expansive underground system of both active and abandoned infrastructure that can be tunneled through easily by an animal that size? Check. A population of people who go out of their way to mind their own business unless something directly effects them personally? Check check checkaroni! Sounds right to me.
Yes, it was. It was just a bad line poorly delivered. Honestly, since they were already ripping off Jurassic Park, the line should ha e been, “That is one big pile of fish.”
Oh, the irony! The advertisement team back in the 1990s knew how do their trailers, but the movie-makers sucked at their job. In the present-day, movie-makers are better at their job (for the most part), but the advertisement teams spoil the hell out of everything.
TJ Jordan I don't know James Cameron's Titanic spoiled the shot out of its trailer. And yet everyone saw it when it came out. Second highest grossing film of all time. Trailers that spoil everything are nothing new.
Fun fact: after the release of this film, the US military actually drew up battle plans for a Godzilla scenario, codenamed, "OPERATION: That's alot of fish"
7:41 something about this quote from Gene Siskel really kills me. (No pun intended) I love the idea that he seems more angry about the fact that his spoof character wasnt killed and seemingly less angry that they're being presented as spoofs in the first place.
That reminds me of something similar that happened in The Lost World, which came out a year before this movie. In the movie there was a Paleontologist named Robert Burke who according to Sarah Harding is wrong about the behavior and the Parental instincts of the T. rex. Later in the film he is eaten by the Mother Tyrannosaur. This character was a Caricature of real-life Paleontologist Robert Bakker (who was actually mentioned by Tim in the first film) Bakker was the rival of Jack Horner, the Paleontology Consultant for the first 3 Jurassic Park films (incidentally Horner was also the real-life inspiration for Alan Grant) Horner believed the T. rex was a Scavenger. Bakker (like the rest of us) believed the T. rex to be an Apex Hunter. This drove Horner so crazy that he asked Spielberg to have a caricature of Bakker be eaten by a T. rex to spite him. But this all backfired in Horners face because Bakker saw the movie and recognized himself getting eaten, LOVED IT, and sent Horner a written letter which said: “See, I TOLD you that T. Rex was a hunter!”
Critic: Horrible, horrible sequels. Reality: how about a cartoon show much better than what spawned it? Starting with a non-awkward Nick, not played by Matthew Broderick.
@Phan Ghostly your opinion is your opinion, and you are entitled to it, but at least we know rulers of earth zilla is a godzilla sub-species. and most people like zilla jr., but not the original zilla
@Dr Prof Krane Well yes he is. He's far more worthy than his predecessor and the the whole fight between Zilla Jr and Mechazilla was kinda the proof. He's nearly indestructible, has atomic breath plus the traits of being extremely agile in battle and underwater.
@Dr Prof Krane Debatable. Power don't mean shit if you can't hit your target. Zilla Jr ironically enough has the best of both worlds. The traits of his predecessor while also having those of the original. I'm just saying I prefer Zilla Jr over his "father".

@@thebadger622 they actually did... there were plans for a special where they would have met each other... but it got scrapped due to bugget cuts... godzilla the series should have been around 100 episodes long in case you were wondering :(
@@thebadger622 they replaced the part where they meet with the big white robot gorilla (the one that is controlled by remote verbal commands from far away).
To be fair, he could’ve just disappeared back into the water, probably looking for fish and then later on as it’s a later time, Night time as opposed to daytime earlier it would’ve been another meal for him; Looking for his breakfast/lunch and then being lured To have his supper eh? :-)
But it got mutated from an Iguana which is strictly herbivorous, so it doesn't make since. But I get why you'd think that since many Monitor Lizards are like that.
What I love is that the writers of the movie "Godzilla Final Wars" actually bought the rights to "Zilla" (the creature in this movie) just so that they could have it get completely rekt by the true Godzilla in less than 10 seconds... Probably one of my favorite scenes in the whole movie, and that's saying a lot because there are some amazing scenes in that movie.
They didn't buy the rights to "Zilla," at least not in the way that you're implying. Tristar purchased the license to use the Godzilla IP from Toho in order to produce the 1998 film. This means that Godzilla 1998 was always filed under the original Godzilla IP owned by Toho. Since they owned the original Godzilla IP and by extension the 1998 design, Toho disliked the 1998 film so much that they actually used their legal right to create an entirely new IP under the name "Zilla" to legally distinguish the 1998 version from the traditional Godzilla IP just out of spite for the film. Any piece of the media that wants to publish or release works featuring the 1998 design must buy the rights to use the "Zilla" IP from Toho, since they own both the rights to the "Godzilla" and "Zilla" IP.
With all the new kaiju films coming out like Pacific Rim: Uprising, the Legendary Godzilla: King of the Monsters, the new anime film, and Godzilla vs Kong, now would be a perfect time to review the 2014 Godzilla reboot. Like this so Doug can see it
Matthew Broderick is watching a Jesus special for Christmas, and has just finished the scene where Peter casts his net over the right side of the boat: "That's a lot of fish."
If they were counting on Godzilla eating the fish (which it did!) then why didn't they poison it??? It would be a *lot* easier than to blow up half the city after the damn beast... Gee, i guess they're suckers for the hardest method (either that or they knew they'd end up with a 20 minute film lacking any real story).
@@knightofetro13 he can't do as much creativity due to the pandemic and I feel he's trying more to be an honest critic rather than nothing but hating not saying his old stuff is bad
I actually like Stargate a lot. And if you know what you are getting yourself into with Independence Day, it's a nice 90's action movie representative.
I like Stargate as well. Especially since, without it, we wouldn't have gotten the epicness that was SG-1 or Atlantis. I liked SG-1 better, but Atlantis was cool too.
I actually liked Stargate the movie and series. It’s kind of interesting looking at all of the different worlds and scenario the characters go through.
But, the movie and series still does come off as something the people from Ancient Aliens would make. Essentially everything not made by N.Europeans “was aliens” It’s always coloured my enjoyment of the universe.
@@cjwrench07 they tweaked the lore in the series that the Goa'uld didn't create egyptian, chinese, etc cultures. They simply co-opted the local mythology and took upon the personas of already existing gods. A nice touch.
@@elroyscout It still ignoring that “Aliens” *advanced* everyone’s culture/technology, except for North & Western Europeans in the show. (The exact same unofficial motto as the ancient aliens people. Aliens taught/oversaw the building of the Mayan’s vast water pumping-storage networks, but not the older European Castles.) The only interactions those European cultures had was with the protective or benign aliens, like the Asgard and Ancients, who very particularly didn’t pass on any technological or societal advancements to them. So… the inherent implication is that the show’s various “aliens” taught everyone else how to build the wonders of the ancient world: - the *massive* (British Empire destroyed) Wall across the neck of Africa. -the slightly lighter Great Wall of China. -the advanced medicine, including the purposeful use of antibiotics in C.African empires. -the South & Central Americans very complicated use of wind & hydrodynamics to move water to both mountainous & arid desert cities. Although, once the Aliens stopping advancing them, those cultures either stagnated or collapsed.
Thank you. It's just fun. Just so long as we aren't actually attacked by a 60 or whatever foot lizard, I'm fine with the movie. Oh, and so far no one happened to mention the THREE Simpson's cast members; Nancy Cartwright, Hank Azariah and Harry Shearer. FUN! 'Nuff said.
Which just proves that Scooby Doo was actually good. But no, every single person on the internet ‘always hated it.’ Are you telling me its worse than Space Jam? Which was great as a kid. There, I said it. Even the new one.
20:13 About that 2008 NG, Their is this awesome movie called "Pacific Rim" where a giant robot uses a ship (not an ocean liner) as a baseball bat against a Kaiju.
Funny enough this was actually the first movie that ever introduced me to Godzilla as I had never seen any of the toho movies before this and the 2014 Godzilla movie was what introduced me to the Godzilla that many of the people who had seen the toho movies were familiar with so this Godzilla film will always hold a special place in my heart
People hate this movie a lot but I actually kinda like the design of Godzilla... or Zilla, as he's been renamed. I firmly believe that if they simply didn't call him Godzilla, people would have been a bit more forgiving on the poor reptile.
IDK I liked this Godzilla but i think it gets alot of hate because it lacks the raw over the top destruction of the original Godzilla along with all its symbolism.
@@renardnoir2581 That is one of the main reasons behind the hate of this movie is the fact that it doesn't deserve the title of godzilla has its not an unstoppable force of nature and also there are bit of huge plot holes and poor writing as well the fact that the monster is somehow a ninja That can disappears
Misterprickly Atomic-blast from last year's Godzilla was so much cooler. Hate on the movie all you want, some hate it deserves, but when it delivered it DELIVERED!
Everything you said is true except that Marine Iguanas eat algae that grows on rocks underwater, not fish. Most species of iguana are largely vegetarian
GOD DAMMIT!!!! That monster is not a lizard. It's a reptile. In the starting credits, they show a Komodo, a reptile, and another creature that swims and has a single row of spines, probably a reptile that eats fish.
Watch his previous review, Mortal Kombat: Annilation, and you will see why. X3 Also, Doug only shaved because he was The Joker or something for Halloween or something like that.
If we had known in 1998 that there will be an American Godzilla where he shoots a friggin laser beam into the mouth of another monster and all that's lacking is a "Fatality" text appearing... well that and light, because you can't see shit watching that movie on your TV.
I liked independence day because it was fun to watch. I wasn't paying attention to plot holes and stuff so I don't know if I'd like it now as an adult. Since I'm more critical of stories / writing now then probably not. Other than to see Will Smith I probably wouldn't care for it.
BlackKraya Stargate wasn't bad, it just wasn't good. It was a very average movie. The TV series blew it out of the water as we actually got interesting characters.
This was actually the first Godzilla movie I watched I like it until I watched the other Godzilla movies and realized I got gypped thank goodness they loss the rights to their own creation
Yeah, but the recent Godzilla wasn't that bad, but not amazing . Hollywood will never make a great Godzilla film, they keep trying to add human characters your supposed to care about, and removes kaiju battles or only has short ones that is mostly blocked by said human characters
I hear ya my mom watched this movie so often that I have a definitive soft spot for it as well as movies like The Mummy (Brenden Fraiser) along with its sequal's cartoon, Aliens/ Predators, and a movie called The 10th Kingdom which is 8 hours long.
20:26 "I've had more emotions for my toilet brush." I for one typically do feel sorry for my toilet brush. Especially after seeing "The Brave Little Toaster"
My guess is once Doug watches Godzilla King of the Monsters 2019, he'll be like HOLY S***! WHY COULDN'T WE HAVE SOMETHING BADASS LIKE THIS 21 YEARS AGO?
Three of my favorite lines from this video are: Nostialgia Crititc: Look out it's Cloverfield and it's 8 years early! 8:14 Shaggy :LIKE ZOINKS SCOOB LOOK OUT IT'S GODZILLA! Scooby Doo: Holy sh*t Shaggy: Like you said it Scoob. 8:36 Nostalgia Critic: But it turns out the military really sucks at their job because they actually turn out to destroy more of the city then the monster does, seriously I don't get how they can't shoot this thing I mean is he really that hard to miss? 13:18 LOL!!
Perhaps it's supposed to be ironic that an insurance company, the people who usually cover stuff like property damage, are now the victims of the very same thing. Maybe? I'm not sure. That's just my guess.
Before i finish watching this... I actually liked and still love this movie. Just dont think of it as a godzilla movie. Think of it as a regular kaiju movie and you will enjoy it. Was it a bastardization of the godzilla franchise? Yes. Yes it was. Was it a horrible movie? No not really. It isn't movie greatness but it is a nice movie to see every once in awhile. I like how it portrays godzilla like an actual animal that follows its instincts and portrays some intelligence. Yet i do admit there is some deus ex machina with how it can asexually reproduce. Granted real life has similar bullshit it pulls. That being said? The humans do not really... i mean... Oh fuck it... Godzilla the giant CG monster had more life and characterization in it than them. Hell Godzilla is portrayed as the villain! Yet when he/she dies both times i feel horrible for it. What was I going out about? Oh yeah... Despite all its flaws it still has its charms. You want Godzilla to win even if Humanity gets screwed by that result. So in the end it is a movie you should at least see. Edit: Finished the video... Pretty much said everything i expected... So... Your own opinion.
But you see Godzilla isn't meant to be portrayed as a giant monster. He's meant to show the effects of carelessness of atomic weapons and the destruction of Japan. Godzilla will always be best portrayed as the unstoppable force of nature. A natural disaster that can't be stopped. The movie it self stole its second act from mad max thunderdome the fuck. Not to mention the main reason we didn't get another American Godzilla movie which did capture him the way he should of been captured in the first place. Toho even bought the rights' to Zilla his official name in Japan just, so Godzilla could kill him in 30 seconds marking his shortest victory in the franchise. This movie has to many flaws to over look its terrible plot and characters. A good kaiju movie jesus you might as well had said Micheal Bay's transformer movies make for a good Robot movie.
I too have a soft spot in my heart for this movie. Not saying that it's actually a really good movie, but I don't see a reason to hate it as much as majority of people do. It did come out when I was around 10 years old, so it has some that nostalgic feel to it perhaps for me. But it's a decent movie I watch every few years. Felt bad when NC said the end was a lame scene, when I truly get the feels for Godzilla. (I like it throughout the movie)
I rewatched this movie recently and I did soften up on it a little. I don't dislike this movie as I used to and to watch this movie as a stand alone and only view Zilla as Zilla certainly helps. I still don't particurlaly like the main characters though. Zilla was easily the most interesting part of the movie.
James Rolfe went into deteail on this too He doesnt hate the film he just felt Godzilla title was added to be a cash in To him there is nothing really wrong with the movie itself. but this clearly isnt godzilla since it doesnt fit the requirments Call it something else like Iguara or Lizalpha and you'd have had a different reaction One of these days i'd love to see james or doug cover the Animated Series Zilla jr is closer to what Godzilla was. Odd how the sole survivor of the egg was a better representation of the character in a saturday morning cartoon. which is odd i dont know why the sole egg was more special then the other young so we got good from this film a lot of bad but some good
this movie would have been more successful and liked if it wasn't called godzilla, which is the most tragic thing, if they had named it anythng else, this movie would have been liked instead of horribly hated
Nope, the plot was dull, the acting was terrible from start to finish, and the "jokes" even worse. You take away the name and it would have been forgotten and not despised, which is often worse for movies.
+TheCNotes You literally just took every thing that you could think of, and then called it bad. In no way was the acting "terrible" or the plot dull. And you have no right to call the jokes bad just because you don't like them.
Look, Stargate the film was hokey. But it spawned an epic alt-history science fiction television series. It's great if you can get past the suspension of disbelief necessary to indulge the alien intervention conspiracy theory. Which should make it worth the hassle.
To be fair, it was a lot of fish

Well to be fair that would've made much more sense than what the movie's writers went with.
Truly he is the son of GOD zilla
Honestly that Godzilla died like a bitch in comparison to all the shit the Japanese Godzilla survives.
IKR! And "Godzilla Final Wars", proves which one is superior!!!
That Godzilla tanked a meteor.
Reicher Wallace
Yeah! NO SHIT!!!
Where as the American Version runs away like a chicken!
At least the new remake had a Godzilla that survived.
The Japanese Godzilla is a Shinto demon-god, whereas the American Zilla was abyssal gigantism combined with radioactive mutations.
The monster in this movie is an aquatic lizard (which explains the swimming) so it makes sense for them to feed Zilla fish
Charcoal Head *Godzilla but good try
But it got mutated from an Iguana which is strictly herbivorous, so it doesn't make since. But I get why you'd think that since many Monitor Lizards are like that.
Yeah... but
That's alot of fish
MAELWAARE THATSALOTADAMAGE
But it ain’t enough fish it may be a lotta fish but not enough fish...
-The Nostalgia critic
14:07 You deserve an award for being able to say that in breath
How about this for the fish line:
"That's a lot of fish. Hope you saved some for the sushi restaurants here."
I know not good but its all I got.
Tricycle Kid420 Even better!
"That's one way to fish for a monster."
"Personally, I find this plan to be hit or fish."
"Here's hoping it falls for this hook, line, and sinker."
Psychronia That's the best so far.
that was actually pretty good
Mikoyo15 Thank you.
What I love is that the writers of the movie "Godzilla Final Wars" actually bought the rights to "Zilla" (the creature in this movie) just so that they could have it get completely rekt by the true Godzilla in less than 10 seconds... Probably one of my favorite scenes in the whole movie, and that's saying a lot because there are some amazing scenes in that movie.
The worst scene in the movie minus STAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They didn't buy the rights to "Zilla," at least not in the way that you're implying. Tristar purchased the license to use the Godzilla IP from Toho in order to produce the 1998 film. This means that Godzilla 1998 was always filed under the original Godzilla IP owned by Toho. Since they owned the original Godzilla IP and by extension the 1998 design, Toho disliked the 1998 film so much that they actually used their legal right to create an entirely new IP under the name "Zilla" to legally distinguish the 1998 version from the traditional Godzilla IP just out of spite for the film. Any piece of the media that wants to publish or release works featuring the 1998 design must buy the rights to use the "Zilla" IP from Toho, since they own both the rights to the "Godzilla" and "Zilla" IP.

I actually like Stargate a lot. And if you know what you are getting yourself into with Independence Day, it's a nice 90's action movie representative.
Thiago Leão I really like stargate too
I like Stargate as well. Especially since, without it, we wouldn't have gotten the epicness that was SG-1 or Atlantis. I liked SG-1 better, but Atlantis was cool too.
No that would be terminator 2. Independence Day is representative of trash.
Thiago Leão Anyone know that song during the credits?
Come with Me by Puff Daddy. Or the original song, Kashmir by Led Zeppelin

I actually liked Stargate the movie and series. It’s kind of interesting looking at all of the different worlds and scenario the characters go through.
But, the movie and series still does come off as something the people from Ancient Aliens would make. Essentially everything not made by N.Europeans “was aliens”
It’s always coloured my enjoyment of the universe.
For sure. The Stargate movie was meh, but the series really really did it for me.
@@cjwrench07 they tweaked the lore in the series that the Goa'uld didn't create egyptian, chinese, etc cultures. They simply co-opted the local mythology and took upon the personas of already existing gods. A nice touch.
@@elroyscout It still ignoring that “Aliens” *advanced* everyone’s culture/technology, except for North & Western Europeans in the show. (The exact same unofficial motto as the ancient aliens people. Aliens taught/oversaw the building of the Mayan’s vast water pumping-storage networks, but not the older European Castles.)
The only interactions those European cultures had was with the protective or benign aliens, like the Asgard and Ancients, who very particularly didn’t pass on any technological or societal advancements to them.
So… the inherent implication is that the show’s various “aliens” taught everyone else how to build the wonders of the ancient world: - the *massive* (British Empire destroyed) Wall across the neck of Africa. -the slightly lighter Great Wall of China. -the advanced medicine, including the purposeful use of antibiotics in C.African empires. -the South & Central Americans very complicated use of wind & hydrodynamics to move water to both mountainous & arid desert cities.
Although, once the Aliens stopping advancing them, those cultures either stagnated or collapsed.

One thing Doug Walker does not seem to understand:
Dumb movies are fun as hell.
Sometimes. Sometimes they're just dumb.😮💨
He’s a movie snob.
Thank you. It's just fun. Just so long as we aren't actually attacked by a 60 or whatever foot lizard, I'm fine with the movie. Oh, and so far no one happened to mention the THREE Simpson's cast members; Nancy Cartwright, Hank Azariah and Harry Shearer. FUN! 'Nuff said.
Didn't the Godzilla Animated series continue the story tho ? Godzilla's son that becomes a good monster ?
yea

There was originally meant to be a film trilogy, but it got cancelled due to the poor reception of this film.

I love this movie, it came out when I was 7 years old and I was entranced the entire time as a kid when I first saw it.
I was 11 when it came out and I had action figures from it
I saw it in the theater and bought the very good soundtrack on cd
8:36 Shaggy- Like ZOINKS Scoob look out its GODZILLA!
20:13 About that 2008 NG, Their is this awesome movie called "Pacific Rim" where a giant robot uses a ship (not an ocean liner) as a baseball bat against a Kaiju.
If this wasnt a Godzilla film and more of a regular American monster film...its pretty badass
It's a guilty pleasure movie for me🤣
Funny enough this was actually the first movie that ever introduced me to Godzilla as I had never seen any of the toho movies before this and the 2014 Godzilla movie was what introduced me to the Godzilla that many of the people who had seen the toho movies were familiar with so this Godzilla film will always hold a special place in my heart
Oh my God... Doug was YOUNG!!!
He looks 21
And he was funny
He was 27 here. He probably looks younger because he shaved.
People hate this movie a lot but I actually kinda like the design of Godzilla... or Zilla, as he's been renamed. I firmly believe that if they simply didn't call him Godzilla, people would have been a bit more forgiving on the poor reptile.
Definitely
I love this movie and this Godzilla!
Agreed, I still own the DVD.
IDK I liked this Godzilla but i think it gets alot of hate because it lacks the raw over the top destruction of the original Godzilla along with all its symbolism.
@@renardnoir2581 That is one of the main reasons behind the hate of this movie is the fact that it doesn't deserve the title of godzilla has its not an unstoppable force of nature and also there are bit of huge plot holes and poor writing as well the fact that the monster is somehow a ninja That can disappears

Am I the only one bothered by critic talking about godzilla like he's a dinosaur?
Well, in "Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah," they showed Godzilla's origin as he was an actual dinosaur before, but soon mutated after the H-bomb hit.
+andrewa714 Maybe critic got confused? It's really hard to tell what a dinosaur and a mutated lizard is actually
Everything you said is true except that Marine Iguanas eat algae that grows on rocks underwater, not fish. Most species of iguana are largely vegetarian
GOD DAMMIT!!!! That monster is not a lizard. It's a reptile. In the starting credits, they show a Komodo, a reptile, and another creature that swims and has a single row of spines, probably a reptile that eats fish.
I mean the American monster, everyone knows the Japanese Godzilla was once a dinosaur

And they made GeoStorm which made 2012 and Day after Tomorrow seem like classic films.
Geostorm was at least fun bad

I agree that Stargate was bad (interesting concept, though, that made for a good TV series), but Independence Day was fun.

I did feel sorry for Godzilla... Sorry that they took such a star and put it into such a movie
Yeah, but the recent Godzilla wasn't that bad, but not amazing . Hollywood will never make a great Godzilla film, they keep trying to add human characters your supposed to care about, and removes kaiju battles or only has short ones that is mostly blocked by said human characters
ben carrie Kind of like they can't make a decent transformers movie. They keep using human protagonists. That's bullshit and we all know it

Raging Raichu It also has a lot of fish
I hear ya my mom watched this movie so often that I have a definitive soft spot for it as well as movies like The Mummy (Brenden Fraiser) along with its sequal's cartoon, Aliens/ Predators, and a movie called The 10th Kingdom which is 8 hours long.

Atleast the crappy Stargate movie gave us the amazing show Stargate SG-1. That show was incredible.

SGU. . .Never heard of it mate.
At least we can all say that the Stargate movie is much better than Independence Day: Resurgence.
Doug looks so young here.
Like an angry baby.
Before i finish watching this... I actually liked and still love this movie. Just dont think of it as a godzilla movie. Think of it as a regular kaiju movie and you will enjoy it. Was it a bastardization of the godzilla franchise? Yes. Yes it was. Was it a horrible movie? No not really. It isn't movie greatness but it is a nice movie to see every once in awhile.
I like how it portrays godzilla like an actual animal that follows its instincts and portrays some intelligence. Yet i do admit there is some deus ex machina with how it can asexually reproduce. Granted real life has similar bullshit it pulls. That being said? The humans do not really... i mean... Oh fuck it... Godzilla the giant CG monster had more life and characterization in it than them. Hell Godzilla is portrayed as the villain! Yet when he/she dies both times i feel horrible for it.
What was I going out about? Oh yeah... Despite all its flaws it still has its charms. You want Godzilla to win even if Humanity gets screwed by that result. So in the end it is a movie you should at least see.
Edit: Finished the video... Pretty much said everything i expected... So... Your own opinion.
But you see Godzilla isn't meant to be portrayed as a giant monster. He's meant to show the effects of carelessness of atomic weapons and the destruction of Japan. Godzilla will always be best portrayed as the unstoppable force of nature. A natural disaster that can't be stopped. The movie it self stole its second act from mad max thunderdome the fuck.
Not to mention the main reason we didn't get another American Godzilla movie which did capture him the way he should of been captured in the first place. Toho even bought the rights' to Zilla his official name in Japan just, so Godzilla could kill him in 30 seconds marking his shortest victory in the franchise.
This movie has to many flaws to over look its terrible plot and characters. A good kaiju movie jesus you might as well had said Micheal Bay's transformer movies make for a good Robot movie.
So that newest one actually got the meaning behind Godzilla correct then
I too have a soft spot in my heart for this movie. Not saying that it's actually a really good movie, but I don't see a reason to hate it as much as majority of people do.
It did come out when I was around 10 years old, so it has some that nostalgic feel to it perhaps for me. But it's a decent movie I watch every few years.
Felt bad when NC said the end was a lame scene, when I truly get the feels for Godzilla. (I like it throughout the movie)
I rewatched this movie recently and I did soften up on it a little. I don't dislike this movie as I used to and to watch this movie as a stand alone and only view Zilla as Zilla certainly helps. I still don't particurlaly like the main characters though. Zilla was easily the most interesting part of the movie.
James Rolfe went into deteail on this too
He doesnt hate the film he just felt Godzilla title was added to be a cash in
To him there is nothing really wrong with the movie itself.
but this clearly isnt godzilla since it doesnt fit the requirments
Call it something else like Iguara or Lizalpha and you'd have had a different reaction
One of these days i'd love to see james or doug cover the Animated Series
Zilla jr is closer to what Godzilla was. Odd how the sole survivor of the egg was a better representation of the character in a saturday morning cartoon. which is odd i dont know why the sole egg was more special then the other young
so we got good from this film a lot of bad but some good
this movie would have been more successful and liked if it wasn't called godzilla, which is the most tragic thing, if they had named it anythng else, this movie would have been liked instead of horribly hated
skyler kelloe should have named the movie "a lot of fish"
Nope, the plot was dull, the acting was terrible from start to finish, and the "jokes" even worse. You take away the name and it would have been forgotten and not despised, which is often worse for movies.
+TheCNotes You literally just took every thing that you could think of, and then called it bad.
In no way was the acting "terrible" or the plot dull.
And you have no right to call the jokes bad just because you don't like them.
"Independence Day" was pretty god-damned good.
So was Stargate

Look, Stargate the film was hokey. But it spawned an epic alt-history science fiction television series. It's great if you can get past the suspension of disbelief necessary to indulge the alien intervention conspiracy theory.
Which should make it worth the hassle.
