The movie is scoring when I check 53% Rotten Tomato rating.

Been a huge fan of the Godzilla movies since I was a kid. My kid and I already have tickets for Thursday night and can’t wait!

I suspect that I’ve never grown up.

Been a ‘Zilla fan since about age 6. My wife would argue I’m still age 6.

It looks from the trailer that like in 2014 almost all action takes place in the dark of night.

They do this to hide the bad cgi and it ruins the movie because you can’t see anything (especially if you watch it on a TV at home)

Just put a guy in a rubber suit already

The Big Guy is looking a little pudgy. He could use some exercise.

I just remember the Fairy Twins in Godzilla vs. Mothra.

Gorilla - GOrira
Whale - kuJIRA

Whale + gorira = Go jira = “Godzilla”

plus, he comes from the ocean, and stuff.

So, yeah.

That it exists in a movie where a princess is possessed by the spirit of a Venusian emissary and is the target of Yakuza attacks makes the monster team-up almost secondary.

Whoa. Sounds like you're gonna need a scorecard on this one.

I remember people insisting that the 2014 Godzilla would be soooooooooooo much better than the 1998 version with Matthew Broderick.

Then I decided to sit down and watch both American Godzilla movies back to back.

Neither film was good, but the 1998 one at least had a campy, fun quality to it. The 2014 version was a waste of time after Bryan Cranston died. Godzilla also got about 25 minutes screentime in his own movie. Should have been titled "MUTOs: The Movie, with a Special Guest Appearance from Godzilla"

Had a similar reaction after seeing the "so much better" JJ Abrams Star Wars compared to the George Lucas prequels.

Are they going to use Blue Oyster Cult’s song “Godzilla” as the them song?

Here's one of the monsters they cut out of the movie. I wish they would have left it in. On the other hand, this beast might have been too scary for younger children.

I had a plastic Godzilla model when I was a kid. My neighbor buddy had a King Kong model. We had lots of arguments over who would win in a fight between them.

I still think Godzilla would take him. One fire-breath is all it takes — singe all the hair off the ape, make him look like a baboon’s butt all over.

Well, that’s a bigger rating than I would give to that 2014 “Godzilla” movie. Let’s hope Godzilla makes more than a cameo appearance. If you want to see a pretty good “G” flick, check out the 2016 “Shin Godzilla.”

Without being too preachy about it, the movie engages with climate change, deforestation, and pollution, all of which should be on everyone’s minds all the time.

Dang.

And I was hoping to enjoy this movie.

I am so sick of the "evil humans" mantra.
