I mean, not that I wanna push any kind of gender/sex category agenda b/c Godzilla is whoever they are and we love them for it and they do not have to fit our categories

like they brought in Simpsons voice actors for the cache because it was 1998 and the simpsons was at the height of its cultural power. but they're super distracting and they didn't give them anything actually funny to say or do

I was 50/50 on if the pregnancy test thing was really part of the movie or something I misunderstood or subconsciously cooked up in the intervening years

#Monsterdon I'm not sure but did I just see a background extras buy flowers from a street vendor? I guess pre-internet Godzilla news traveled slow.

So, you wanna lure your kaiju *away* from notable landmarks and sensitive infrastructure. Which wouldn't be hard since you've found something it will eat.

But then we couldn't have all this spectacle that stands-in for plot.

I was about to comment that we were almost an hour in and our "love" interests still hadn't had the meet cute, but here we are! And it's pretty cringe (and not in a good way).

Fan opposition to the film built up to a frenzy during production, causing the studio to create a massive marketing campaign to draw in as many viewers as possible in the early days.

In fact, theater attendance did plummet after bad word-of-mouth and reviews. The expense of the marketing also tanked to profits, resulting in no sequels as planned.

the tone is a huge issue. there's another "joke" every 30 seconds or so but its clearly not meant to really be a comedy either. there's just enough "jokes" that you can't invested in anything because the movie won't let you
