Thats what I was talking about Katashi_itto May 2014 #68

I think Godzilla might be a little bit too "high brow" for Rush...he might not even make the MADem May 2014 #2

He's fatter, but I don't think he's "too fat" jmowreader May 2014 #6

Ah, not fat, FIT!! There's muscle up under there! MADem May 2014 #27

Godzilla Size Chart Blue_Adept May 2014 #34

He did have cankles. Hassin Bin Sober May 2014 #9

But did he have dimpled knees? nt MADem May 2014 #28

I'd pay good money to see Godzilla fucking something. (No, I wouldn't.) randome May 2014 #21

There is a really good kinda live action hentai parody Godzilla jberryhill May 2014 #37

I should have known something like that would be out there, already. randome May 2014 #44

Not the sole reason. The antinuclear message was clearly a major intent of the original movie. . . Journeyman May 2014 #5

that is interesting. The Japanese saw themselves as saviors of the world... CTyankee May 2014 #55

Answer to your question: who gives a fuck? Scootaloo May 2014 #7

A fuck must be given jmowreader May 2014 #10

These people are irrelevant goobers Scootaloo May 2014 #18

And not just the Bible tracts either! jberryhill May 2014 #38

Only Philistines don't know who Ken Wantanabe is. My daughter and I are seeing msanthrope May 2014 #8

Definitely see it in 3-D jmowreader May 2014 #12

His Gatsby would have been shitloads better with huge Japanese monsters. msanthrope May 2014 #13

Which one? jberryhill May 2014 #39

Any monsters would improve Gatsby jmowreader May 2014 #43

Except Zombies jberryhill May 2014 #47

After being run over by Daisy... awoke_in_2003 May 2014 #49

Thanks for that. randome May 2014 #20

Gatsby was in 3D? MADem May 2014 #30

Yeah, believe it or not... jmowreader May 2014 #45

I have to confess, I've never seen a 3D film. I have crappy vision (fairly well corrected) MADem May 2014 #46

Ken Wantanabe was SO good in "Last Samurai" AND "Letters from Iwo Jima" n/t EX500rider May 2014 #33

I'll pass, you can't beat the original Godzilla movies. edbermac May 2014 #11

I'm with you. Rozlee May 2014 #16

I remember watching the old Godzilla movies on TV growing up davidpdx May 2014 #24

It's cathartic, isn't it? What every adolescent needs. randome May 2014 #26

He was just taking his daily walk to work off those thighs thats all. SummerSnow May 2014 #58

I do the 'speed' version Fla_Democrat May 2014 #70

How about Godzilla v Kim Jong Un? jberryhill May 2014 #41

Sounds good to me davidpdx May 2014 #42

Film has Bryan Cranston, one of the most popular actors working today. Also Juillete Binoche Bluenorthwest May 2014 #31

And while not hugely known... Blue_Adept May 2014 #35

I bought a ticket last night for the IMAX 3-D movie Jazzgirl May 2014 #36

It'd be a nice change of pace if Godzilla actually won in this movie. Kaleva May 2014 #40

Perhaps the San Francisco destruction will cancel out the anti-nukular stuff. arcane1 May 2014 #51

You lost me at "I just saw Godzilla...." WinkyDink May 2014 #53

Oh come on. This was a top-of-the-line Godzilla movie. jmowreader May 2014 #67

We saw it in IMAX 3D too; I liked it. Link has SPOILERS! RiffRandell May 2014 #54

I see your point. But they might say Godzilla, who is "foreign" SummerSnow May 2014 #56

Did Godzilla snack on little Fiat cars like in the TV commercial? Brigid May 2014 #59

He mostly snacked on other huge radioactive monsters jmowreader May 2014 #66

Godzilla (1954) was actually a reaction to an event that occurred after WWII RandySF May 2014 #62

Did it spit out the Fiat? (Or whatever little car that was?) calimary May 2014 #63

Three actors from the Canadian sci-fi series, Continuum, are in the movie. randome May 2014 #69
