Ah, you're a Dune guy. I learned of Shai Hulud from the band.

Bless the Maker and His water. Bless the coming and going of Him. May His passage cleanse the world. May He keep the world for His people

In this poster, it actually looks like they shrunk Godzilla now.

---

Just forced perspective, they put the ship up close and they are really far behind it. Don't pay any attention to Kong being in front of the command tower.

---

Also, how did both Godzilla and Kong get on top of an aircraft carrier without turning it over and sinking it?

Let's help them out and pretend it's anchored at port...they gingerly step onto it because Godzilla as we all know is very careful when he walks...once they are standing on it could it really hold that much extra weight without them simply crashing through into the lower decks and then sinking it then as well?

I feel like these people are trolling me.

I'd just like to point out that this is a movie about two immense critters battling each other. Who the heck needs logic at a time like this?

I know! The physics of this is so all over the place though that I can't help but comment on it.

Tickets are available now. Got mine for opening afternoon. Will then likely watch it again at home a few times after I get the HBOMax sub.

Pretty sure this is the first blockbuster in history in which this will be possible. Where we can watch it in a theater and then immediately (and officially) watch it at home the second we get back from the theater.

Damn it I had completely blocked that movie from my mind.

Kudos for that accomplishment so quickly after it came out.

While I agree with the idea, G:KOM was so bad I thought it was given a SyFy channel budget. I don't regret seeing it in theaters, but it was really really stupid. First Godzilla and Kong weren't stupid.

I have a feeling this movie is going to be cool as hell.

This looks like the sequel to Pacific Rim I always wanted

Who says it's not?

Un-canceling the apocalypse.

Finally a Godzilla movie that is delivering on the Godzilla part.

And a Kong movie that doesn't have a cast of 20 people stealing the spotlight, for that matter.

Agreed. Caught part of it on TNT last night. Better than I remembered.

I would add two caveats to Godzilla. Mediocre and boring for the most part, yes, but there *are* a few really cool sequences, with some of the best cinematography of the franchise - shots that make Godzilla look incredible at times. The movie does a really good job of capturing the scale of it all, and the stuff with those two monsters passing the nuke to each other in the middle of the city is pretty eerie too, in the best way.

But yeah, otherwise, it's so damn slow and methodical, and the casting kind of sucks. Or, rather, I actually like the cast but they were all bland, cardboard characters here. Aaron Taylor-Johnson, especially, should not have led this movie. And killing Cranston half way through was one of the dumbest decisions ever. Any pulse the movie had just completely flatlines after that point.

Godzilla 1 was awesome. King of the Monsters was cheesy at times with tons of holes, but still delivered. Just didn't have enough Godzilla.

Watched Godzilla with my 11 year old who wants to see GvK.
I forgot how slow it was in parts. He complained that Godzilla was barley in the movie and it should have been named Mothra. Also, a lot of the movie happened in the dark where you couldn't tell what was going on too well.
Well try and watch KOM before GvK

If you could have $500 or get to punch Aaron Taylor Johnson in the face, which would you choose?

I actually like ATJ in certain roles, like in Tenet and even Age of Ultron, along with a couple other roles. Otherwise, he can definitely be a bit much at times, but not so much that I wouldn't take the $500.

In Godzilla, he's just boring and vanilla as hell. That role needed, like, a young Will Smith or something. The movie could have kept the exact same plot and just had a bit more life and spirit via its cast and it would have made a world of difference.

It's too bad they already used up Ken Watanabe saying "let them fight" dramatically. Cause damn would that be hype as hell for GvK.

Yeah, that line would have worked better for this film, but they already "used up" Watanabe as well.
