I don’t mind laughing at an old B movie now and then. They could make an entire season of MST2000 with old 50’s/60’s Godzilla movies. But like so much other Hollywood, hardly anything original anymore, and reboots of Godzilla? The new movies aren’t comic relief. They are usually some SJW/Climate change themed CGI mess.
I agree - the reboots show off technology and try for effect rather than amusement.
Not sure I would rate the old Godzilla movies with a “B” - maybe a “C” but that’s part of what makes them “classics” - kind of like “The Thing” or “The Blob”, “Them” and maybe even the “Tremors” flicks.....or any of the Lou Diamond Phillips line...neat how someone who never really hit a “real” movie set managed to become a household name...
