not since biollante have a i really cared about the humans. they've been uninspired. what i wanna see from the people in this is character development based on how they handle this new problem and threat that is Godzilla. i don't want the military to accept it has no chance, so some strong character(s) are expected there, and the main characters outside of that i really wanna see be hard to sympathise with, but easy to empathise with based on their actions. by that i mean you don't feel bad for them because they deserve whatever is happening, but given the circumstances that the film places them in you can understand why they're who they are, and why they do what they do. i find that a character you don't really feel bad for but understand makes it easier to fit into their role in the film as opposed to one you really don't like, or who is the "hero" or the unfortunate guy/gal stuck in the middle of what's happening.
a good example of unfortunate and stuck, and a hero is emmi from G vs KG. she was totally absent minded as to what was being done, then just gets thrust into the hero role when the oppertunity presents itself. i don't want that for this movie. i wanna follow an average person who's just caught in this set of events, and who has it rough or mundane. that way anyone could sit down and say "yea, that's what i would do".
now what i expect is to get some people in a romance, but also fighting against this kaiju problem who end up being unlikely stars or heroes. that's one thing that bugged me about GINO, and why i don't like americanized versions of the movies in general.
