Godzilla x Kong = Dumb (feat. Diddy)

Фильм және анимация

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is what happens when you assume that most of your audience is thick and will pay for anything so long as it's got the right branding. If you like Godzilla and Kong you should be offended that THIS is how Hollywood treats them.

    Lobotomites off the starboard bow. Deflector shields up at maximum. Update! The joke was that taking down statues to save people from monsters is a better motive than tearing down statues because you’re a giant, corrupt political operation that uses race to scam people out of lots and lots of money. Kinda crazy that a fairly tame comedic observation at the expense of a known-to-be-fraudulent political org blew up. But this is the internet. Just to clear up a point quite a lot of silly people are missing: nobody has any problem with you having fun with this movie. This review has a lot of fun at the movie’s expense. The problem is with those who say that fun and quality are the same thing. “Dumb but fun” - fine. “So actually the film is really good” - not fine.

    … just… let people enjoy things? There’s a line between offering genuine critique about the writing quality of something… vs pointlessly mocking people who enjoy it. It’s entirely possible to accept a work is not good, but enjoy it anyway. And conversely, you can dislike something without having to mock people who do.

    @lafe5 Critiquing a bad movie doesn't stop people from enjoying them. The moment you use the "let people enjoy things" argument, you have to apply that to every movie. People said that about the Disney Star Wars movies and shows, people said that about Phase 4 MCU and shows. It's not even an argument, most people use the phrase so they don't have to defend the films they like.

    Point of reference - it is a well established and well known fact that titanic monsters hate land marks and are drawn to them like moths to a flame. This is why every monster movie involves well known landmarks being destroyed. For some reason, in the 90's, the Tokyo tower was particularly good at attracting monsters to destroy it.

    It's kinda nessasary. It is vary easy to write Kong like a mute human. He is a ape after all. Meanwhile if you write Godzilla like a human it's just strange. Now that is not to say you can't write the story with Godzilla as the focus. It's just going to be hard to relate to him. As good as Minus one was. Only a lunatic could say they relate to Godzilla in that movie.

    Godzilla is a franchise with a ton of variety concerning its tone. From the serious tone of the original, Minus one and Shin Godzilla or the campy, ridiculous films of the showa era.(The original Godzilla vs King Kong.) I'd argue that the many shapes and forms that a Godzilla film can take is exactly what makes Godzilla such an enduring figure. You're right Godzilla x Kong is not a great film, but its great fun. The appeal of the Monsterverse for me is seeing Godzilla get a Hollywood size budget and acceptance from mainstream audiences. We've come a long way since Suitmation(which I love) and Godzilla 1999. I still think the Monsterverse captures the "spirit" of the franchise. Seeing Godzilla 2014 in theaters with my father who introduced me to the films is something i'Il remember forever. As an adult do I prefer/appreciate more thoughtful entries in the franchise? Absolutely! But as a life long Godzilla fan. This is par for the course and because of the Monsterverse, Godzilla is at peak cultural awareness. Which means more films both good and bad. It's hard not to be a happy Godzilla fan right now between the Monsterverse entries and the stellar Toho entries. There's really something for everyone, and I think you illuminated that perfectly by explaining your respect for Minus One and Disdain for Godzilla x Kong. But I respect your take.

    One thing that I've seen nobody bring up when discussing the movie is the Kong Kong side of the story, despite this being more of a King Kong movie than it is a Godzilla movie. King Kong, from the character's very beginning, has always been about entertainment and escapism. Just joining the characters along for the ride to explore this fantastical new world. And it's always been that way whether it be in the near 1 to 1 remake that was Peter Jackson's King Kong, or in the absolute insanity that was King Kong Escapes and The King Kong Show from 1966, which this is more in line with. As well as that, Kong has always been amongst the most personality filled characters of the genre, always feeling the most human of them. And this takes that part of him to a head by making us follow him. Kong is the central character here, and as such, his human aspects. His isolation, his loneliness, but also his compassion and sympathy, the parts of him that made him stand out from many other monsters, including Godzilla, are allowed to shine in full force.

    The problem I have with most Kaiju movies is how easily they fall into having the monster stuff making the human story so irrelevant and pointless or at best to only have some influence on the monster scenes. The humans largely being expositional devices that explains things and act as filling whilst we wait for the big expensive monster fights. What pacific rim did right despite all its flaws was actually get the humans involved in the big fights by having them pilot giant robots that can go toe to toe with the kaiju. Thereby making the human storyline and the action scenes complimentary and dependant to eachother.

    But that is a challenge to overcome surely? I would point to the original Alien, Predator, Jurassic Park and Terminator movies. The monster was the stand out star of the show but we all know and love the human characters because they were so real, multilayered and memorable. Their presence kept the fantastical elements grounded and believable. A human character in a Kiju movie could keep the audience in mind of the scale and stakes at play. I think Cloverfield pulled this off. But it takes a creative writer drawing from their life experience with friends and family to achieve this, not a boardroom of number crunchers

    Ironically I find the action in Godzilla Minus One way more exciting despite it being slower paced and labored. When giant creatures are throwing each other around, and there's no weight behind it, it doesn't feel like any of it matters. It's also extremely important to see the effect that the destruction has on the people caught up in it. I feel nothing seeing Italy stepped on, but when Godzilla in Minus One trashed a city I couldn't help but cry.

    Because you care about the human characters, because the movie uses music and images to convey pathos,danger and peril. Minus One's Gojira is not a cute ape or a protector, it is a monster, the wrath of God, inevitable and unstoppable. We see the people in the streets, they are trying to rebuild, live a normal life, they are somebody's son, somebody's father, someone is waiting for them at home. If we see their little world, then the destruction the monster causes is much more understandable. The scale of the destruction is comprehensible to us. We see their desperate struggle and we can't help but cheer for them. In these late movies in the monsterverse, everything is gigantic but meaningless. The characters aren't larger-than-life heroes or relatable normal people, they are just characters. Even they don't care so much about the monsters, they are a fact of life for them, so why should we? They have all the issues some later Kaiju movies had, without any of the campy charm.

    Dear Little Platoon, I agree, this movie has major flaws and is undoubtedly worse than the other monsterverse movies. That said here’s where I find that you are either overly pedantic on or just wrong. Harmony does not mean no issues. Times of peace doesn’t not mean crimes don’t exist. So the Titan Apes protecting humans can be from the many hungry monsters that roam the underworld, or from just normal natural disasters. I wouldn’t let a man stick his finger in my mouth to expose my teeth because I’m not a literal animal. Kong and Scar Kings are monkeys. Same type of animals that poke assholes and smell their fingers. Scar King notices that Diddy brought the Kong into his lair, and before Scar King punishes Diddy, a slave ape intervenes. So Scar King kills the slave instead of Diddy. The ice titan being trapped in its own cave with a lava waterfall acting as the entrance makes sense. It’s a cage, where the door is lava… so it won’t leave. Meaning that Scar King doesn’t have to constantly use the crystal mind control device to keep it in place… The natives try to communicate with Godzilla (instead of Kong) because all the apes they know of serve the Scar King. Not to mention that Godzilla is the strongest, and has already “won” the first war. The movie has shown that Kong lays trap around his hunting ground. The Subterranean world entrance is just above his hunting grounds. So it no surprise when Kong is using it against the apes chasing him. Godzilla is absorbing the energy within the lair of Tiamat. Cant remember but I’m pretty sure that the lair itself is the focal point of the converging solar energy, and that was in Tiamat’s territory. Scar King can ride the back of Shimo and not get frostbite because the frostbite would come from the actual attack that is the ice breath beam… nothing else suggest that other titans would get frost bite simple by touching Shimo “Throwing shit at the wall” term can be used in many movie situations. Good or bad. Countless stories have the same Hail Mary as their lead up to the climax. It would be appropriate in-universe to call it out especially when the characters know that failure is more likely to happen than not. Your attempt to make it this weird meta insult upon monsterverse fans is silly. Kong didn’t jump down to bait Godzilla to the underworld because there would be a chance that Godzilla wouldn’t follow or Godzilla would just attack him there. The statue of Christ the Redeemer does not get harmed. The colosseum before is surprisingly unharmed as well except for a wall that Godzilla walks over. I understand the tangents about them but it’s not as warranted as you make them sound. Now you missed a genuinely bad motive for the Scar King. I watched your stream about this and you mention that Shimo does an ice breath at the sky for no reason and then after the battle Godzilla did a laser breath too. What you didn’t realize is that Scar King was commanding Shimo to ice beam the sky to presumably cause another Ice Age and freeze the world. Why? No fucking clue. Scar King finally gets the to surface and then decides “ok I want this place to be frozen now”. Nothing really suggest that he wanted that in the first place considering that Scar King level in lava land. But this can only be the his climatic motive because if the Scar King reaches the surface, nothing different would really happen. He’d just get his ass kicked there anyways by Godzilla or the multiple other titans that live on the surface. He’d rule less land on the surface then he would in the underworld. So the writers had Scar King suddenly want to start an Ice Age. Then Shimo is freed, and Godzilla repairs the damage by undoing the ice age stuff. This movie had me in tears on how absurd it was, even comparatively to the previous films. Still unwarranted or overly pedantic critiques of it does more harm to yourself than good. The fact I could even defend a single point in this ridiculous movie makes me question your format in your other videos. Then again you did hit more than you miss since I agree with the actual major plot issues. That said, Not all movies have to be a 5 star meal. Some movies are ok to be fast food quality. Other movies are gas station levels of slop. Nothing wrong with that, people like it. You insulting these people does you less favors then not. So no need to be have this “holier then thou” attitude because you’d only like to dine at the finest of restaurants. After all can you really feel insulted when you are the one who walked into the gas station market and realized you didn’t like the food there for the 4th time?

    The funny thing about comparing summer blockbusters to Shakespeare is that if you’re familiar at all with history…Shakespeare was sort of the JJ Abrams of his time. He was well known for creating blockbuster plays, most of which are devoid of intelligent plot and character beyond a base level (fight me on that, I’ll win,) and being supported largely by the aristocracy despite the masses not really caring one way or the other what they were watching so long as they saw it in his glorious theater. His later popularity only arose in the Victorian era when his plays were studied by modern scholars SPECIFICALLY because they were popular at the time with the aristocracy…which fittingly enough then captured the minds of the then-modern aristocracy, leading to a wave of largely unexplained popularity which persists to this day despite a majority of his plays being best described as melodrama.

    Shakespeare didn't really have much of a choice when it came to royal characters in his plays, if anything bad happened to one without 'divine retribution' it would have been treated as conspiracy of treason and then be sent to the Tower of London, which is why when Macbeth kills the king he does not get away scot free, or when Paris and Mercutio are killed in Romeo & Juliet both families lose equal amounts of members to equalise the loss of Escalus who is the prince of Verona--although in this case all of the families were aristocrats, Escalus got his 'retribution' because he is seemingly the more renowned aristocrat out of the three because he was the one to hold authority over the city and because Paris was considered of higher status than Romeo (barring the whole family feud).

    He uses the breath to clear out the frost cloud that the ice dragon makes, and he expected to fight all of the apes on his own Mind you, they 100% did it to make a new toy, and its role in the story is pretty much just to have an excuse for Godzilla to kill some monsters.

    ​@@cordyceps182my personal theory is to make Godzilla stand out in the finale battle during wide shots they gave him pink crystals instead of blue because the ice Godzillas blue might have been seen as confusing

    read comics? Godzilla in this universe is killing scylla because she was feeding on nuclear plants and challenging him, same goes for tiamat. As the movies go on, we see the more cocky and ego side of godzilla THAT HE ALWAYS HAD.

    It's only barely noticeable on my phone, but i hear some audio clicking in the background for a majority of the video. I thought my phone's speaker was goin out, but no other videos were doing it.
