Would you say you looked like your sig watching part one?

Saw this yesterday.

Once i got over my disappointment that it wasn't the movie i wanted it to be, i really enjoyed it. The monster designs were really good and the fights were awesome. I liked that the humans storyline was all about them trying to fix the mess they made and having nothing to do with defeating the MUTO's.

It wasn't without it's flaws though. Aaron Johnson's acting was terrible, the reasoning behind Godzilla's awakening and him fighting the MUTO's was a little weak IMO. Godzilla wasn't featured enough however i thought the build up to his reveal really good. The movie dragged in some parts too but all in all i really enjoyed this and am excited for the sequel.

One last thing which i'll include as a spoiler just in case

When Godzilla used the atomic breath, i got super excited like a little kid

One thing that bugged me was, the story presented the theory that Godzilla was the top predator to the Muto. But they never showed Godzilla eating the Muto. Predators eat their prey.

The fact Godzilla didn't eat the prey made Godzilla honing in on, and killing the Muto, rather odd, confusing, and begging the question.

Also, the original Godzilla had no Planet-X connection. I wondered if this film would. With the Godzilla universe, I'd expect space aliens to come up eventually.

Remember the skeleton and the parasite attached to it? That shows a natural enemy sort of thing (although referring to Godzilla as an "alpha predator" is a mistake).

There's the territorial angle as well. "Stay away from my turf!"

With the sequel now greenlit, all sorts of possibilities have opened out. We might even see Jet Jaguar!

Might even be really lucky and get the song in too


Whilst realism certainly isn't an issue in the Godzilla world so I don't consider this a real flaw of the film so much slight oversight, I guess I did wonder about the predator idea - mostly that it's suggested Godzilla, the MUTOs and the creatures from that time feed on radiation emittedfrom Earth - for Godzilla it comes from deep in the Ocean etc. In this situation...why would anything need to develop a predator prey relationship?

As V said, referring Godzilla as an "alpha predator" thing was mistake or just to put a reason to create "Let them fight" scenario. I think the territorial dispute would be more reasonable one or for their limited amount of 'food' source availability. But I'd like to mention, besides all of these flaws, one thing they did clever was making one of the MUTO monsters 'fly', cause without that flying MUTO, I've doubt on how much exciting the war between Godzilla & MUTO couple would look like. When Godzilla arrived at San Francisco and at the same time as the flying MUTO showed up, the jets were dropping around & thus the pilots were Parachuting to save their lives...I loved those scenes! Great build up...that eventually ended up just at the peak of the moments..MUTO attacked Godzilla & the screen goes black as some door/gate was shut right in front of our view/the camera!


Found this 1 on a facebook Godzilla fan group...::big grin::

I should hope not.

Oh... at the beginning, that was Godzilla bones, and the 1st Muto was a parasite that fed off a Godzilla? I didn't really get that the Muto was a parasite from that. I'm not saying it wasn't, it just went over my head. Well that makes more sense, but I think the movie should have made that more clear for the remedial audience members.

And please, no Jet Jaguar!
Good question. I thought about that too. If they feed on radiation released in the ocean depth, why come up at all. If that was the key situation, why not say climate change has stifled radiation in the depths so they are looking for new sources, or something like that.

Yes, that's true. If godzilla and Mutos are in competition for radiation sources, then after Godzilla was done killing the Muto, godzilla should have started attacking and feeding on nuclear power plants in the area. That's what I was expecting Godzilla to do. He's dead. No, he's alive. Ah, now he's going for some nuclear power plants...

Ah! LOL! that's hilarious!

So...there's some Frank Darabont treatment in the movie!

And even from Andy Serkis:
