Godzilla Minus One (Takashi Yamazaki, December 1, 2023) • Page 5

Yeah this ruled. That one shot that was looking upwards at our boy as he was taking tank rounds. Smoke blasting all around him. Gorgeous

 

BuT iT’s a ChRiStMaS mOvIe

 

Hmmm looks like it came out in July 1988???

 

I don't know if you've ever heard of the phrase "Christmas in July"????

 

Nope. That sounds insane.

 

TIL that even though it's absolutely an American corporate creation, there are countries in the Southern hemisphere that do it so they can have a festive holiday during their winter months.

 

Godzilla a little cutie if you ask me

 

Heads up for those of you who liked the music.
The American edition of the LP will be released through Waxworks

 

Uh... yeah... adorable...

 

seeing this tomorrow

 

i hate that i havent seen this again yet

 

Thought this was excellent. Honestly? I didn't mind the ending with her being alive because it didn't feel implausible and I also didn't see it coming. It's a bleak film overall so to have an ending like that felt strangely subversive. And it hammered home the themes really well.

 

this ruled. only gripe is the ending like some others in here.

 

Agreed @ the post before that post

 

it didn’t feel implausible that she survived what was basically the equivalent of an atomic blast?

 

Lmao it just begs the question like, did he even try to look for her haha

 

hear me out


the film's antagonist is a giant mutated dinosaur.


subvert!!!!! subvert!!!!!!!

 

kong minus one woulda stopped that crap from happening

 

haha right, even he was like god damn she is so dead

 

We all know no one has ever survived an atomic blast

 

Lol. That was odd, but I took it more as a reflection of his despair which is a pretty key plot element. He didn't have enough hope to marry her and he didn't have enough hope to look for her. The way his neighbor slaps him with the letter at the end communicated this too. Like, "You idiot. Did you not even look?"
Maybe that's a kind reading. It just all added up. And yes, people have survived atomic blasts before, although I don't personally have the data on the survivability of a Godzilla blast.
