An NFT collection of Matthew Broderick reaction shots #Monsterdon

that's another BINGO! tunnel, RAWR, science babble, ship, military guy #monsterdon

Godzilla growl or indigestion? You be the judge. #Monsterdon

Spring in Minnesota.

#monsterdon #godzilla1998

It's gotta smell pretty bad near all that fish and now they're uncovering the manholes. Godzilla will be fine, but it's gotta be stinky for the humans #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998 #Godzilla

I think more than alligators are in those sewers #Monsterdon

Thunderstorm continues into hour 20. #monsterdon

WHY WOULD YOU WASTE A TRAVELING ZOOM SHOT THERE?

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

I feel like you could cut out the incidental dialogue and reduce the film's runtime by half. #Monsterdon

aren't iguanas herbivores? I could have sworn a saw nature documentary footage recently of an iguana eating seaweed

#monsterdon

sorry nick but I don't think he'll be able to smell the bait over the scent of this stinker of a script #monsterdon

Speaking of product placement--this flik reeks of Big Fish

#Monsterdon

We want to make New York reek like it never has before!
#Monsterdon

Jump scare godzilla comes up through the manhole

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

If that trick doesn't work out there's gonna be a lot of smelly fish in Manhattan

#monsterdon

@msh I believe the gag is "HON HON HON"

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦖 🌇 🦶 😱

this movie is extremely moist

YAY FISH

The fish and the lizard are fine.

"That's a lot of fish!"

*two characters stare at each other for a moment*

*you can practically see the filmmakers count to three to leave time for audience laughter*

😑

#monsterdon

eyyy, third line down horizontal bingo

(I'll post the card later)

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

Oui, tres bizzare.

#Monsterdon

OK, I wanna see random people falling down manholes now

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Can I just state how much I despise military dialog in almost all movies. It’s always lots of barking things like “okay people, you heard the man… let’s move, move, move!”

Just stop. For the love of Pete, stop.

#Monsterdon

matthew broderick reminding me that no those rain jackets make everyone look dorky

#Godzilla #Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon

Even in 1998 you could get good coffee in NYC without much effort what's the deal with this running "gag"? #Monsterdon

Yeah, make sure you aim the missiles directly at the fish pile. #Monsterdon

Godzilla seeing the pile of fish, with a French accent, mimicking Luc Besson, "You call zees feesh?" <uses tiny arms to take cigarette out of mouth>

#Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe it's a lotta fish #monsterdon

In this movie there are French journalists trying to spy on the mayor or something and the main French guy's plot thread seems to be that he really hates American coffee.

#monsterdon

Complaining about flavors while 'mokin' dat cigarette. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

more coffee jokes? no baguette? hon hon. Jean Reno could have been given better for sure.

#monsterdon

SCINTILLATING DIALOGUE #Monsterdon

When a worm guy tells you "that's a lot of fish" you'd better believe that that's a lot of fish #Monsterdon

"Can you fill me in on the thing destroying the city?"
"Nah"
#Monsterdon

He said the meme!

PILE OF FISH DEPLOYED

#Godzilla #Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon

This Mayor Ebert and his assistant Gene sure are bad at their jobs! 😉

#monsterdon

My second favorite character is the biologist guy, my third favorite character is the Paleontologist lady and my FAVORITE character is Godzilla them self. :blobfoxhappymlem: #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998 #Godzilla

Oh look, new lead actors. #Monsterdon

@SnoopJ @socketwench this is like, the middling buffet version

we got everything and it's going onnnn forever

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦖 🌇 🦶 😱

so many sweet fishes

#monsterdon i have never understood Hollywood’s obsession with Jean Reno

#Godzilla1998

Prepare operation Tuna boom!

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1989

Je m'excuse, monsieur. Is this roast French? Is this poupon grey??

#Monsterdon

More creme, merci vu cous. Hon hon hon #Monsterdon

The problem with this film is its budget. It had like $150 million and needed more like $30 million.
#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Don't overestimate Roland Emmerich, he's just an animal

#Monsterdon

@xerozohar the cartoon is way better! #monsterdon

@CactuarJoe @Taweret I'm thinking of Godmonster and the real estate angle that's part of most great monster movies. #Monsterdon

Important movie update: my machos went soupy

#Monsterdon

Hahah the French person cannot stand good American coffee. How very French #Monsterdon

poor jean reno just wants a good cup of fucking coffee

#Godzilla #Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon

It's funny this movie inspired a related cartoon (to sell toys of course, but) that I actually liked way more. It had a "friendly" zilla that was bonded to Nick and friends and helped fight other critters as one expects. #monsterdon

Using the universally obvious symbol of being in Manhatten as often as possible was great at the time, but really makes you wince now.
#Monsterdon #Gino

"He's *just* an animal" yeah right...you know who else is an animal? Victor "Animal" Palotti aka Moe Szyslak aka Blue Raja. Get bent, Ferris.

#Monsterdon

The french know nothing about coffee.

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@Taweret Less bootlicker-y, too. #Monsterdon

This is the dollar menu version of ID4.

And ID4 is like, an Applebees.

#monsterdon #godzilla1998

I half-dozed off and realized there is still dialogue but no lizard.
I don't need to catch up.

Take an Atomic Breath

Director Emmerich originally designed a power breath which was only strong wind.

News of this leaked and the resulting fierce fan backlash caused filmmakers to edit in "flame-thrower" breath.

#Godzilla1998

Oh how I wish that shot of the skyscraper would have had a glimpse of the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.

#monsterdon

thinking about how we've done movies with tiny budgets, a sliver of this movie's budget that were more engaging

#monsterdon

HOPEFUL THEME OF AMERICAN MILITARY INTERVENTION! EVERYONE SAY THANK YOU TO THE APACHE HELICOPTER #Monsterdon

Worms... Godzilla... samsies

#monsterdon

BINGO! Lightning, evacuation, free, science babble, fish, right down the middle #monsterdon

I say we take off and nuke NYC from orbit.

It's the only way to be sure.

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

So stick some electrodes into the mud and zap 'em with a battery, and boom. Bucket of worms and a 'zilla. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

I love this scientist character and the way he talks about Godzilla, like, it feels realistic in a way and the nerd in me loves it. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998 #Godzilla

is matthew broderick suggesting we use matthew broderick as bait? please?

#monsterdon

I thought he electrocuted the worms out

#monsterdon

They're not using their official Godzilla® Duracell™® flashlights
#monsterdon

Godzilla is NOT just "some animal" 😤
#Monsterdon

this dumbass corporal or whoever is about to be peeling potatoes for the rest of his life.

#monsterdon

I know what Godzilla needs.

A better script. #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero

EXCELLENT

oops I mean

Oh man that's terrible!

#Monsterdon

oh godzilla's not the enemy? he's just an animal? cram it in your bonghole, hippy

#monsterdon

Yesssss use your worm summoning machine to call Godzilla to you #Monsterdon

Thank goodness Ferris had experience with… earthworms?

#Monsterdon

Yeah, we totally didn't do that! But lets say hypothetically we didn't....
#monsterdon

Mamdani sworn in where Godzilla attacked !#Monsterdon

all we need to do is electrify the soil of the entire island, and

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

Just tell it you got it tickets to Phantom in a week. It won't go anywhere. #Monsterdon #Godzilla98 #GINO

Ignoring the fact it can apparently swim?

#Monsterdon

again with the frickin earthworms...

#monsterdon

HOW DID THESE FISH GET HERE

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

#Monsterdon 🦖 🌇 🦶 😱

but how could he tunnel out of the city tho he has widdle front hands and a big old tushie

Have you considered a giant, cartoon bottle cork?

#monsterdon #godzilla1998

#monsterdon Did he say Godzilla was inside a building?

Do they have a lot of zeppelin hangers in NYC?

Oh this is a prequel to Escape From New York #Monsterdon

at least they know they won't be able to stop godzilla by painting a tunnel entrance on a wall

#monsterdon

put a turnstile!

#monsterdon

Wasn't the original Godzilla female? Lol #monsterdon #godzilla1998

@OldRustBucket "What do ze call zees?"
"Freedom fries, monsieur"
#monsterdon

OK, so Godzilla can tunnel now.

OK.

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@jivens I do keep wondering if giving Siskel and Ebert _characters_ was so that they had to excuse self-reviewing.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The anthora coffee cup! NYC ppl, can you even get coffee in these cups these days? I imagine films have to use copies from the "smeat" company...

Okay that's a good shot entering the tunnel #Monsterdon

The mayor balking at the cost of evacuating NYC is portrayed as a bad decision but to be honest that's what every single politician would do in that situation. You know they don't have the money in the budget for that.

#Monsterdon

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

⁉️ TRIVIAZILLA 🏙️💥🦖

Film reviewers Siskel and Ebert negatively reviewed Emmerich and Devlin's earlier films Stargate and Independence Day.

So we are not surprised to see characters Mayor Ebert and his assistant Gene as parodies.
