Thank you, MM.

I don't remember if I shared this last year, but this is a video my oldest friend, Drew made. We grew up in the IFB together. We came out with similar opinions of it. He's the one singing.

Lol, penis.

Also, nice singlepost.

Best CEO evur.

Archie doesn't have a penis?

Also, the Archie+Veronica+Betty love triangle is still a thing? Jeez, those guys know how to spin a non-existent storyline out for decades.

That Chad is one cool dude.

Somebody probably already posted this somewhere but I don't care because LIW4ETG4VWBHERTNU SHEEEEDFFFFFFFFFULCGFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK

ffffuuUFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFCKORTHNUE5IK56

Nobody posted that. Also, I don't really find it very good. Too over the top, and they didn't even show the monster.

Why would they show the monster in a teaser trailer? And what’s that in the video thumbnail?

It's a fog. Lots of it

What the fuck are you on about?

I just don't like the trailer. It looks exactly like every other action movie trailer I have seen since years ago. Nothing jaw-dropping. Nothing stands out.

What the fuck more do you want from an action trailer to make it jaw-dropping? I shit my pants when I saw that.

Take a chill pill. You're acting like I insulted you

Sorry, it's just a stupid thing to say.
Also, I say fucking a lot, which makes certain things I say come across as harsh when really it's just for emphasis. It's kind of a habit.

Less is more, Nep.

What a sincere apology.

Seriously though, it's just going to be another CGI snorefest. It's a tech demo, and a mighty impressive one, but you can't just slap a half-baked script on it and call it a movie.

When you overuse this word, it usually loses its meaning and impact, I suggest you to try avoiding swearing purposely, like me.

It's just... I don't know, I just re-watched previous Godzilla movies trailers, and while I don't think they're especially genius, they did a better job there. For example this teaser had a better effect on me:

(It's silly, but that's beside the point)
It's certainly more subtle at the beginning, it builds up very slowly through the first half (showing a real life-ish situation just to build immersion) and change rapidly in the second half just to show the scale of the danger, centering on the monster. The monster was never fully shown, but the eye alone made a better impression on me than a fog-covered Godzilla from the new movie.

The new trailer... well, at some moments it's a total mess, with a lot of unnecessary scenes, let's start from 1:18
a) The guy runs the corridor. This one is good enough. It may be a tunnel under the assaulted city. Then it instantly switches to
b) A few soldiers outside of the city pointing guns towards camera and the train in the background. My guess that's not probably not chronologically correct, it serves absolutely no purpose to the trailer other than "put it so it lasts longer", and "looks pretty".
c) Godzilla destroys a train (or something), that's ok.
d) A mother hugs a kid in a well lit room, in daylight. Oookay, what the hell? I thought the city was already destroyed and the sky is black and everything is dark... You could as well put the scene in any other action movie. Maybe it IS from another action movie??
e) Some secret base flash, ok
f) A scientist in a cave looks at something flashy... um... okaaay
g) BOOM. The scene would be better if it was shown, that Godzilla destroyed it (if he did that), but they decided to cut this fragment
h) A soldier commits suicide by jumping into the ocean after realizing that this scene is laughably stupid
i) Scenes with shaky ground and missiles. Okay, those make sense
j) A group of children run from left to right in daylight. Am I supposed to act like this didn't exist? Does it have any actual sense in the trailer? I mean... JESUS
k) following scenes are actually about damage made by monster. That's okay. Then they're suddenly cut to show the monster. The idea is fine, but the cut feels weird, because at the beginning of the next scene you just see fog and think that it's just another scene of damage.

TL;DR What MeechMunche said.

Am I the only one who can only remember the second half of Godzilla?* The bit with all the eggs in the cinema? The bit that's basically a zombie movie with Velociraptors? The bit that has no 50-foot iguanas whatsoever?

Because if that doesn't speak volumes about how bland "giant x smashes y" is as a concept, I don't know what does.

* The American one, duh.

I remember only

I remember every scene with Jean Reno in it.

The same is true of many movies.

Also Onimusha 3.

If the first thing you think of when you see the name “Godzilla” isn’t the animated cartoon based on the American movie, I have nothing to say to you.

I don't give a crap about scripts, I just wanna see godzilla screwing stuff up. It's not as if the classics were works of art.
Yeah but it's frickin' Godzilla, and it's ACTUALLY Godzilla, not that crap american film from 1998 with a big T-rex that they slapped the "Godzilla" name on.
In a Godzilla film, I don't care about the characters, the scripts, the acting, the plot...
For me, and most other people, it's about seeing the military going at Godzilla and failing miserably, meanwhile he's causing havoc and destruction.
Also, fighting other monsters, but it's kind of a tradition that Godzilla be alone in the first film.

IT'S FRICKIN GODZILLA

Shut up, I'm not allowed to swear, gosh.
