In the U.S. the box office was less-than-expected, but this film still made more money worldwide than any other American movie based on a foreign film, holding the record until years later.
Did you see the respectful way those bebezillas handled that mop bucket? They respect labor. #Monsterdon
the difference between me watching this movie now vs years ago is I understand the jean Reno french lines without needing the subtitles
les dialogues ne sont pas drΓ΄les, mais je les comprends
"i know how we can get a message to the outside!"
she just starts yelling really loud

Do iguanas eat popcorn? It's a vegetable, I guess.
Whoof, that CGI is *rough* with the reflections issues.
I too design drop ceilings so that, if a section falls, it damages the electrical systems
#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998
it's weird to watch this and think about how good pretty much everything in _jurassic park_ still looks after like three decades.
they're loose. I mean, they're all over the place #Monsterdon
The Godzillaraptor who got kicked by Dr. Worm will never live it down
who the hell are you π₯
Hey! The Gremlins 2 crossover is here. #Monsterdon
This is what happens when you feed the fuzzy Godzillas after midnight.
okay, the elevator thing can stay. the rest of this movie shall be irradiated until purified.
All these cheap gags and they couldn't even have "The Girl from Ipanema" on the elevator muzak. #Monsterdon #Godzilla98 #GINO
Matthew pushing that big dino out with his skinny little legs lol.

J'aurais dΓ» prendre l'escalator.
#monsterdon
Wrong Floor
@pngwen No, not since he found out they're high in cholesterol.
#monsterdon
Those are some very patient velocira- I mean, baby zillas
#Monsterdon
mmm, popcorn #monsterdon
Matthew Broderick did not skip leg day, apparently
ha ha "Wrong floor" what keen delivery #Monsterdon
Okay, the gumballs making that area into the Olympic slalom walking course is funny though. I have no idea if actual reptiles have this traction problem.
(Casual elevator gag, and it was kind of funny I guess? Sometimes it lands.)
Hey, it's not girl from ipanema
surprised they didn't use that joke too
looks like a fun party #Monsterdon
.......no.
This is not Matthew Broderickβs genre #Monsterdon #miscast
@paco If they knew her father, they'd understand
@surdfish He could make such a nice pair of boots out of every babyzilla. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998
@Binder He can pronounce some consonants? #JustGuessing #monsterdon
I went down to the kitchen to get a snack 15 minutes ago but it feels like I didn't really miss anything.
@Binder They call him Dr. Worm, heβs not a real worm, but he is a real doctor
Ridley Scott is calling his lawyers RIGHT NOW
Spielberg has his dragons open a kitchen door with a doorknob, well MY dragons are gonna KICK DOWN a door at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN
As an introvert, I feel this scene.
i hate this design _so much_
God. Imagine if you gave this kind of budget and access to people with actual technical skill to someone who actually wanted to make an *interesting* movie as opposed to a profitable one. #Monsterdon
In case of velociraptor, do NOT use elevator.
He didn't train for this, he only knows how to fight radioactive worms #Monsterdon
They had to hire Ray Harryhausen to fill in a few scenes...
The lighting on the creatures doesn't match the live action scenes, there's suddenly not motion blur or interpolation, wtf
#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998 ok the popcorn bit was kinda hilarious
"guys, we couldn't get jeff goldblum to be a sexy scientist again. is matthew broderick okay?"
don't hit your brother!!! #godzilla1998 #monsterdon
huh they even had a blockbuster
clever girl #Monsterdon
And now we have Jean-Godzilla looking for a snack!
#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998
Boy they grow up fast, don't they
#monsterdon
#Godzilla(1998)
And that was the end of the jean-* family line
#monsterdon
That was a Velociraptor leap if I ever saw one.
#Monsterdon if I perforate this door with bullets, that'll make it stronger!
Them lil 'zillas sure do seem to be having fun on their lil murder spree #Monsterdon
Raptor leap, check! #Monsterdon
Even the soundtrack sounds like Jurassic Park ripoff. #monsterdon
Terrible trigger discipline, excellent device for increasing tension.
#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998
gumball!
@Taweret Always the case #Monsterdon
his twin brother
#monsterdon
@xerozohar Raptor shadows, check! #Monsterdon
@moira The 90s-PG-jokeyness pulls it down a bit. #monsterdon
Pay phones - I remember those!
#Monsterdon... Why can't the baby Gojiras just win already?
Who put this spotlight here?
oh, pay phones, good ol times
#monsterdon
#godzilla1998
Crawling in the vents to avoid raptors: check #monsterdon
She wore a blackberry beret, the kind you see in a second rate film
Omg a payphone.
For younger viewers, payphones were coin-operated phones that people used to sell drugs
They also double as urinals in a pinch
#Monsterdon
"Think we can rip off Aliens a bit more" Sure thing. Boost me up. #Monsterdon #Godzilla98 #GINO
Thank you for calling #HelpZilla. To better serve you, please select the reason for your call. Listen carefully because our menu has changed. #Monsterdon
jean phillipe and jean pierre. okay.
you see kids, back in the day there were these things called pay phones #monsterdon
See, kids, that's what we used to call a pay phone. It's a special kind of land line that injects syphilis straight into your ear. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998
@Louisa look we all made mistakes when we were young
Okay, that is accurate that he couldn't remember the whole phone number in one go though.
Last stand alert!
#Monsterdon π¦ π π¦Ά π±
oh no! Not Jean-Phillippe and Jean-Pierre!
Jean Phillipe and Jean Pierre :(
Too many Jeans
#Monsterdon #Gino
@bk1e Right? #Monsterdon
Oh it's time for the funny pay phone scene #Monsterdon
kids these days always on their phones #Monsterdon
#monsterdon this movie really underscores how terrible it is that contrasting lip liner and lipstick has made a comeback
oh shit a cell phone
#monsterdon
555-7600, it's dial an air strike; everyone knows that one, Dr Worm #Monsterdon
Pay phones! How quaint! #Monsterdon #Godzilla98 #GINO
call godzilla now: 555-7600. operators are standing by
oooh, DHS throwing their weight around
#monsterdon
Got that number everyone? Might come in handy.
#Monsterdon π¦ π π¦Ά π±
No area code?
Jean Reno should've been the star tbh
@RobynGoodfellow The French Chef, staring Fakezilla.
You know, in 1998, I thought that it would have been so absurd that people evacuated for their safety would be yelling at the mayor to be let back in to the death zone. But. Now I know how realistic that actually was. #Monsterdon
Clever, uh, baby? I don't want to gender them.
(Again, reminder, herbivores won't eat you, but that doesn't mean that they won't bite, kick, etc you for existing too close to them when they were feeling a tiny bit overstimmed or upset.
In terms of causing injuries and fatalities to humans, I'm pretty sure cattle, sheep and horses rank way higher than most carnivores.)
OFC this being in the US, nobody has some like, apple slices or something to placate the babies with.
Remember the late 90s when everyone was wearing berets?
keep them contained? Did you saw the size of the hole on the ground?
#monsterdon
#godzilla1998
And interrupt the tension with a lockerroom joke
#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998
#Monsterdon π¦ π π¦Ά π±
they don't mean *those* kinda refugees
Honestly, we don't know why they're chasing the humans, maybe they just wanna play, like siblings! *Baby bites a guy practically in half* ....maybe not. π¬
