Crap, i had forgotten Ebert's review of Gojira, seriously, he must've fallen asleep and tried to piece the film back together somehow.


THEN he goes and gives X3 a good review, and rated Green Lantern higher than Thor...

on topic, i just saw this for the first time today, it was okay. I've now seen all of the japanese goji movies lol.

too much anime in this movie lol

The kiryu movies are probably my favorite millenium movies. I think the stories were well put together, and the characters were interesting, but that's me, the guy who didn't really like GMK.

Good. Story has some flaws like the bone thing, I love the idea but it's weird...what if an arm cracked when he smacked Godzilla? But otherwise good, although the fact that he had to recharge so fast, that disapointed me a lot.

You'd think it would have to be strong enough to support the weight of a 20,000 ton monstrosity in the first place.

I just think it's weird how the prime minister thought bones were a better substitute than circuits, but the idea is still pretty cool and yeah I guess the bones were strong as he flipped Godzilla over his back without cracking a thing.

A four-base computer would work infinitely faster than a binary computer, wouldn't it?

DNA...a wonderful thing. It can be used to solve crimes, study species of animals with it, and now, they can create a giant Godzilla robot with its own personality with it! :P
Anyway, it was a nice twist to the movie; I think it worked best that way.

I think that may have been an iffy translation. The dub has him saying "Do you like children?" which seems more plausible, even for Japan. The subtitles are probably just worded badly.

That was my initial thought when I first saw that scene in my subbed copy.

Possibly by the translator? :P Prehaps he wanted to simultaneously capture what was obviously going on in the guy's head XD
