Yeah, let's not discriminate against this guy just because he's young. Everyone is welcome in this fandom, young and old

That's not abuse. It's an absolute fact that younger fans seem to enjoy this movie more than older fans do.GojiraFan333 wrote: OK,so I know this may be late,or something,but I don't care. When I read the 20s and above bit what's so bad with being 19? That is just abuse to me.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
That seems like a prejudicial statement. I'm 19 and I didn't think it was a good movie--in fact, most Godzilla movies can be hard to hold down unless you learn to appreciate their flaws.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
If you guys honestly think that remark was prejudiced, you must have lived incredibly sheltered lives. BTW, I'm 20 so I'm not so old man telling kids to get off his lawn. It was a observational statement of a trend that seems rather common that was not meant to be some sweeping generalization of every single fan 19 and younger. And I was 12 when I first saw the movie and I hated it then, so your arguments are pretty much invalid.

He used "fact" and "seem" in the same sentence. Facts are absolute and using the word "seem" implies a hint of uncertainty, therefore his statement of, "It's a fact that younger people seem to like GFW", is more of a brash statement.Kaiser wrote:If you guys honestly think that remark was prejudiced, you must have lived incredibly sheltered lives.

It is prejudiced whether you choose to accept it or not, because he's taking a general demographic and overgeneralizing them with an arguable statement.
That last statement you used is a logical fallacy, but I don't want to get into that stuff because we're getting off-topic.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
You are being waaaay too sensative about this. There is no reason to be this defensive over something as benign as "younger fans tend to prefer Final Wars moreso than older fans" and my last sentence is AGREEING with what you said: i.e. younger fans can dislike Final Wars too. So how the hell is it a logical fallacy to agree with a point you made?RumbleJapan wrote:He used "fact" and "seem" in the same sentence.

I apologize if Im being "oversensitive". And I misunderstood the context of your last statement because I thought you were using it to reinforce the other statement. Thats a mistake on my part.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
It's like how older Star Wars fans hate the prequels, but younger fans enjoy them more. Kids don't always have the best judgment, but you can't chalk it all up to bad taste. Think about it: if you were the right age when the Star Wars prequels came out, seeing them in at the theater, or getting the action figures or whatever, might be fond childhood memories. Many of us love the old Star Wars and Godzilla movies for the same reason: we grew up with them. Obviously FalconZ was the right age when GFW came out. Maybe it was the first Godzilla movie he ever saw, maybe he was amazed because he'd never seen anything like that before. Who am I to judge? I'm a grown-ass adult and I'm not going to berate a 14 year old for his bad taste in monster movies.
I've done a lot of crazy things in my life, but ... I've never stuck my head into a hornet's nest.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
I don't think there's anything wrong with liking Final Wars. FalconZ just didn't seem to understand why the film gets hate from most people, so I went into detail about what things are generally considered flaws, and tried to help him understand why they would be considered flaws.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
I have no problem with people liking Final Wars, it's just when they seem unable or unwilling to comprehend why someone else may not like the film that irks me. For all the vitriol I throw towards Final Wars, I do understand why certain fans like it, but it's definitely not my kind of movie, and even then I'd still rank it above a few truly bad films in the franchise.

It's not people liking it that bothers me. I love Godzilla vs Megalon for, example. and I KNOW it's not a good film. It's the people who think there's nothing wrong with the movie and don't understand why someone else doesn't like it that drives me nuts. Honestly, threads like this are moronic, because it's ridiculously easy to see why GFW gets so much hate. Unless you're that thick.

Re: Final Wars: Why The Hate?
After reading the thread I can see a pattern of what is ultimately
Person A: I like [x]
Person B: *Gasp!* you like [x]?? You can't like it because [y] is better! You must justify you're reasoning with [insert college level grading rubric here]
I mean seriously? Not to come across harsh but do you all realize you are arguing over a teenager's opinion? Personally I can take or leave the Final Wars movie. Was it bad: Yes, but honestly most Kaiju films aren't Oscar-winning films themselves. But despite how campy or unrealistic the plot of giant monsters fighting other monsters we all still are fans of the franchise. At the end of the day it comes to some people like Vanilla icecream, some like Chocolate, etc. etc. Opinions ARE subjective! I do not honestly see how you can justify one opinion holding more weight because you elaborated your thoughts, over a child's who I assume must still be in school and has yet acquired the basics of expressing his or her own thoughts in written form.
I may be reading into this way too much, I just trying to say that arguing over the same point for 4 pages is not encouraging to other users who may feel afraid to share their opinions. Just remember we are all Godzilla fans, age is just a variable on how long you've been a fan. Not what their opinion is worth.

Final Wars had its moments. Anyone who says they like Godzilla films but hate this one should reevaluate why they watch Godzilla at all.

All film series have their low and high points. Godzilla is no exception. Although, what is low or high can be a matter of personal taste.
