Godzilla 2014 - Caravan of Garbage 

Getting progressively sillier until you reboot to a dark and serious tone is thr signature move of Godzilla and Batman

The fairest of points, my guy

It's like watching my dad slowly turn into an alcoholic. Except without the reboot.

Monke...

I’m a KOTM apologist, the action in that one ruled.

About 12 words in I knew exactly where this was going 😂

Had me in the first half. Ngl.

Beat me to it

Ok you got me.

This is what I was looking for. Well done.

It wasn’t as bad in KOTM, but any sense of physical weight and presence was GONE in GvK. Sound design didn’t help either.

​@@stephenenns1386I was fine with that. GvK was meant to be a little more cartoony, and it was great 👍.

This was filmed from the perspective of the humans. Which resulted into scaling how large the kaiju were.

Yeah that’s what I really miss about this movie, the camera angles post KOTM ruins the scale of the monsters and that’s takes me out of it so much

@@raees7413Eh, I don't really care. I just want to see monster fights. Not "realism" 🙄😒.

There's more than one??

​@akgm4961 there's three mate, first two are great, the last one is urm... well garbage

@@akgm4961yup, 10 Cloverfield Lane and the Cloverfield Paradox are both movies set in the Cloverfield universe.

@@AlfieHoy17 So weird cause both the second and third film were both turned into Cloverfield movies late in production yet one is really good and one is awful! Like really really bad and the Cloverfield stuff is laughably tacked on

​@@charliemasters8086That's because Cloverfield paradox was always a cookie cutter, mediocre space movie that they realised was gonna bomb, so they just dumped it on Netflix and slapped the Cloverfield brand on it. 10 cloverfield lane was a good, simple story that they just didn't have much faith in

he’s barely in both movies

@@rhashadcarter2051 Monster screen time doesn't equal good movie. And when they are, they matter. They're both mid ranking in terms of screen time when compared to other Godzilla movies. The atomic breath scenes in both movies are awesome.

@@rhashadcarter2051 In fact, he was only on screen for like 9 minutes in the original 50s movie.

Shin Godzilla: I hated his design/look but I absolutely LOVED the overall story and how they handle the disaster Godzilla 2014: by far my favorite design/look of Godzilla and enjoyed the story for what it is. KOTM is where it started getting weak but still enjoyable.

@@steverogers7601 KotM was headache inducing. I lost interest there. I like a good Godzilla intro movie.

I agree he should've been the main character throughout the film.

Bryan Cranston should have turned into a Godzilla at the end

This movie came out of during the height of Breaking Bad and I think Bryan Cranston was used heavily in the promotional stuff, I was really disappointed that he wasn't one of the mains of the movie.

​@@videogamenostalgia"dag nabbit, now you've really done it, buster!" He dramatically rips off his shirt and transforms

People in my theater lost their mind at that part. That shit was badass

You’re joking, right ?

Awesome theater experience...perfect home theater movie

@@serwinzzalot9989the introduction of Godzilla’s atomic breathe was so damn cool to see in theaters. Hearing the sound system work with the revving up his breathe, while you see the blue light go through his body , was so cathartic and awesome!

I think the thing that drew me to this movie was. The less is more attitude. It was interesting to see a subtle godzilla movie

@@TheDallastvGodzilla also saved more people than Superman did in Man of Steel.

lol

Find yourself a man who loves you as much as that man loves Bryan Cranston. lol

greatest love story of all time

it was Aaron Paul@@SacredDaturana

Imagine leaving the theater just because a character played by a guy you liked died

You’re kidding right? Ben gets so much praise on this channel. Lazlo is only recently getting recognition, but they’re not even the only editors on this channel.

​@@Burner-td4cuyou're just yapping, you didn't even respond to anything they said

only to have it cut away....

Can’t really blame them for being cautious about it, remember how bad the tristar Godzilla was?

@@corruptcamerupt2344I was 8 when it came out so I loved it, but after seeing Shin in 2016 and now Minus One, those two have set the golden standard for me for Godzilla, and I’m hesitantly considering watching these newer American-made movies

@@pinkfloydguy7781 I’m going to be honest with u they’re really just dumb fun action movies (except the 2014 one kinda) and I love them. The reason why is unless it’s the 1954 original or shin Godzilla (haven’t seen minus yet really want to) which are movies with actual drama and story and of course some kind of commentary about the world, I just kinda turn my brain off for Godzilla movies, cause most of them are just kinda dumb and silly but still an enjoyable watch, heck my favorite era is the Showa era so I’m not exactly going for quality but for fun, but with what I’ve heard about minus there might be a third one I don’t have to turn my brain off for.

Completely agree. I think Del Toro did a masterful job with Pacific Rim as well!

King of the monsters was epic but I get what you're saying. The tone was a tad more towards realism. I absolutely love this series except for the abysmal Skull Island. But Kong is amazing on his own even though they made him frikn humongous

Agreed, the effort to make the whole movie, but especially the building sized monsters feel grounded and based in reaity is super impressive and adds so much to the experience

It makes sense for Pacific rim though, as thats just live action Eva ( take out the depression)

@@robinnouara3681and that was the main issue I had with Godzilla in the other 2 movies, they tried to humanize him. Not only the facial gestures which was stupid in so many levels but the movements are quicker in a fictional way which really distracted me

⁠@@Alan-rx3ukgod this is such, a weird take of course they tried to humanize Godzilla in the films after this one he actually has to be a character, as you can’t do this tease bullshit more then once, also this movie’s focus on realism made it so boring to watch.

It's Sitcomopolous

He was too busy looking after the baby Godzilla that became a hero.

​@@shadowprince4620It's actually legend of the game, Anthony Kotoufides

Technically, detonating warheads is one way to dispose of them? Just maybe not the safest way, lol. And to many civilians, unless they’re wearing a blue shirt with the white 1900’s cap whilst on a boat, it can be hard to identify a member of the Navy.

Marine = water and navy = water so technically they’re the same thing.

​@@Burner-td4cuIn the U.S military they are not the same thing. If you're a Marine then you're a Marine, if you're a Sailor then you're a Sailor. Different bootcamps but they do technically fall under the Department of The Navy, but still different.

Why. 95% of the people who cry about Bryan Cranston getting killed off are the same people who generally cry about the focus on people in the movie. Even though 90% of Godzilla movies are minimal Godzilla and maximum people. In the original 54 film Godzilla is literally in 4 scenes in the entire movie one of which is a hand puppet

@@lutherheggs451because joe brody was a great human character that could stand on his own in a Godzilla movie. Killing the most likable human half way through was a mistake.

Shin Godzilla had a better story and writing but had nothing on the visuals and design of Godzilla 2014. His design/look was my most favorite and the way they showed the atomic breath was so cool! Definitely one of those movies that’s worth going to the cinema.

I feel like it's hard to know what role character plays in a Godzilla movie. Ostensibly the only thing these films are *about* is an allegory for the dangers of nuclear destruction and the hubris of man. So in some sense being in awe of the destruction wrought by Godzilla and enemy monsters is the only "substance" the movies need. Though no doubt it would be cool to build some more creative ideas around that framework. Since focus solely on that threatens to make every new installment the same movie. Also the significance of nuclear destruction is only weighted in its human cost, so I guess in that sense character should arguably be very important to a Godzilla movie. It's been said before that Godzilla is really a natural disaster movie, I've also heard that said about zombies. But I don't think there's ever been a Godzilla movie that's primary focus is survival, in the primal sense you get from like The Walking Dead. I wonder if that's what's missing from these movies. People always survive Kaiju in waves, where they interrupt normalcy. It's never a situation as far as I can tell, where people are suffering in the aftermath of Kaiju, and fearing their return. Yes, I know Pacific Rim is all about that, but I mean those people are obviously fully prepared. I'm talking somewhat realistically.

Jaws?

In a way, jaws in a form of an old dog came into a studio. I'm sure Ollie has enough teeth in her jaws to be a danger to a Maso. Jaws.

Directed by Jaws Whedon.

True But also, most should go to actual therapy. There’s a difference between therapy and something being therapeutic.

@@steverogers7601eh RU-vid is cheaper then therapy

The trouble with actual therapy is the cost, unfortunately. And the relic of mental health difficulties signifying weakness still persists for many who have the option. Parasocial relationships aren't therapy but there is a sense of "home" that can be comforting.

I like comparing it to Man of Steel in how to modernise a cultural icon properly.

OK

​@@li-limandragon9287good comparison; wanna elaborate on what Man of Steel gets wrong, especially compared to Godzilla?

How has this not gotten replies yet? I mean It's DangerVile of all people

Wait until you see Godzilla Minus One…

@@RangerMcFriendlyI'm so stinking excited for minus one! I finally watched shin Godzilla a month ago and was thoroughly creeped out by his big lumbering face and his freakishly fast evolution skills. That night scene where he gets bombed and freaks out was so creepy

When I blur my eyes I see it, and I agree

Can confirm

I saw that at the Brattle in Cambridge and was just stunned. Not just the treatment of the big G, but just that it's a serious movie with serious characters, and it treats Godzilla as a horrifying disaster that causes huge loss of life, as you'd do if Godzilla appeared in the real world.

I remember how the simple minded kept saying "We just wanna see the monsters fight!" I thought it was a great Godzilla movie. Cranston did an amazing job in this movie and I wish he had lived longer (but still die), and that we got a little more time with the glimpses of Godzilla. Otherwise a really awesome Godzilla movie. Much better than the two films after and WAY better than many Godzilla movies prior.

Gareth Roberts?

You put a new twist on it, and I appreciate that.

Does them being ozzy have any relevance? Or are you murican and think murican is the default so anything else is noteworthy ?

@@Burner-td4cu Fucking hell man, you're reading into this a bit aren't you? Them being ozzy is relevant because it's a huge part of their online personalities and they constantly reference their ozzy-ness in their videos. As a matter of fact, I find it quite interesting that you'd automatically assume I'm "murican", as opposed to literally any of the other nearly 200 countries in the world. Almost as if YOU think murican is the default and anything else is noteworthy, eh? ;)

tOtOpoLoUs!

In the 1954 Godzilla movie, The main character is literally only in 4 scenes in the entire film.....90% of the Godzilla movies are minimal Godzilla, maximum humans talking.
