I'm so fortunate to have seen this in the theater. Its hands down one of the best movies I've seen in years, and I'm a film snob. Having a degree in VFX, I must say that Hollywood deffitely needs to take notes from this masterpiece. Go go Godzilla!
I have been a huge Godzilla fan my entire life. This is by far my favorite one. I have watched it dozens of times. I cannot say enough great things about it. This is the first time I have heard your take on the ending. It makes sense and seems like a very good explanation. I knew that this was a German plane that Japan had started to experiment with towards the end of the war, but I never noticed the German label on the seat. I did find one big flaw, but since no one else has mentioned it, I am keeping it to myself because I honestly love this film so much.
Happy to hear that you love the movie and that you like my take on the ending. I hope I am right - and as long as there is no sequel that tells me otherwise, my mind will stick with that 😊. FYI: I am now both curious and cautious regarding the flaw you found 🫣.
@@MichasBreakdown They removed some of the guns in the nose to place the bomb, but then when he is distracting Godzilla, there are guns firing from those places in the nose.
Ya know what? I was wrong. I just went back and re-watched just those two segments carefully. They only removed the top two guns and left the lower two guns. When he shoots at Godzilla, there are only 2 lower guns. Originally I thought they removed the two right guns and left the two left guns. Good attention to detail by the director.
This is a 9.5/10 movie for me, and considering the budget they were working with, a 10/10. No movie is perfect including this one, but it's damn close to perfection in acting, themes, effects, homage to the original, and overall message. And the soundtrack, oh that soundtrack! Your t-shirt is amazing by the way
Happy that you even enjoyed the movie more than I did. Still standing by my rating (which is not that different), but totally get your point. Thanks for the t-shirt call-out. That was actually the closed motif I owned connecting to the "giant reptile" topic. Not a perfect match, but a dragon is not that far removed from Godzilla (I think) 😊
