Watched Godzilla Minus Color yesterday. I thought the black and white made the movie better overall but a lot of the Godzilla scenes were better in color. The Ginza attack scene where Godzilla uses his atomic breath for the first time is the best example. They should have pulled a Schindler's List and just had Godzilla's dorsal fins and lasers in color and everything else in black and white
Yeah Sting has a bunch of different makeup designs throughout his career and people still refer to that one as "Crow Sting" because it was such a blatant ripoff lol
Scott Hall based his whole character in the 90s off of Scarface, accent and everything. All the wrestlers knew he was just doing Scarface cuz it's fucking Scarface but Vince Mcmahon is so out of touch he didn't know what Scarface was and thought it was genius )
New Godzilla wasn’t great but it was solid. I’ll keep it spoiler free, but I think this would have benefited in the long run by being dubbed a Kong movie and not a Godzilla x Kong flick. Godzilla is essentially Goku on Namek here. The human story sucks but I’m maybe spoiled by Minus One where I cared as much about the humans as I did the monsters. There’s some nitpicky plot stuff which I won’t get into til people have seen it but that aside the Kong fights, especially that first one with the “tag along” were fantastic. It’s very Looney Toon esque but I loved it for that, it was nice to see the film embrace a sillier tone for that one fight in specific because it was hilariously awesome. I saw it with my buddy who is a Godzilla buff and a couple of the monsters were re skins of longtime Godzilla beasts which I picked up on as a newb but they were done well despite one scenario in particular definitely needing to go on for a bit longer. Aside from that, the end fight is epic as shit and there’s really only one major issue for me and that’s only because it was BEYOND ex machina levels. Like we were hitting Saturday morning cartoon levels of convenience here. Still, a fun ride with a couple of great set pieces and some awesome fight choreography. I think the Japs spoiled Godzilla for me tho because these American made ones just ain’t as good lol
