It made some good points, but dwelled on the Cranston thing a bit too much. Then again, I understand General Audiences may have been a bit disappointed about that.
In my opinion, of course.

I ain't Bart the General Audience though, and I still think he played the only character that was remotely interesting or watchable.

I'm just getting prepared to read all of the comments in the video of " IF YOU'RE COMPLAINING ABOUT GODZILLA'S SCREENTIME, WHAT ABOUT JAWS!?" or "WATCH THE ORIGINALS! HE'S IN IT THAT LONG!" blah blah blah.

Or the obligatory comment where someone calls you a mindless teenager and tells you to go watch Transformers instead. Honestly, doing so might actually be more entertaining and its not like you'd miss anything substantial or life changing.

They question why the female MUTO is destroying a city, and then they complained about Otachi not destroying a city good enough. They just can't be happy.

It's a valid question.

Why the MUTO didn't fight The Beast of Yucca Flats is the real question.

Loved the movie to death and yet found the video to be pretty funny (it's a satire people)

It's amusing though seeing the people who didn't like the movie to try to pass this off as a way to validate their points or think the people who loved the movie will go crazy over this video

No it's not. It was thrown in with the nuclear waste depository IN Vegas when it was a spore. That's WHY it's in Vegas. They even talked about WHY it was in Vegas before they even went to Vegas.
Either the movie took the geographic liberty of moving Yucca Mountain several hundred miles, or the MUTO had no reason to be in Vegas.
In my opinion, of course.

It's not satire when you spend so much time trying to point out plotholes and trying to have legit gripes. "No lapdance in this scene" shows they're trying to tell a joke and then in the next breath are trying to point out the bad movie logic. It's uneven and just overall a bad job at critiquing. Pick a tone and stick with it you know?
this is why i don't watch them, ever, for anything. it's not my brand of humor; nobody ever (legitimately) dies or loses a loved one, so i don't laugh.

Eh, they pointed out what we already knew were the main problems with the film. I mean yes we know

- Killing off Cranston so early was stupid
- Lack of Godzilla disappointed most general viewers
- That cutting away from the action scenes constantly pissed everyone the hell off an was an awful idea
- that the script was weak and that Aaron Taylor's character was cliche an bland as heck

An yet Legendary brings back the main writer of the first installment and Edwards still wants to cut away monster screen-time (Maybe he'll grow a brain or realize it was a bad idea before killing the franchise)

You talking about how it was said he'd still like to show the same restraint for the sequel? Wasn't that comment made earlier on before most people showed their displeasure? I'm sure he'd adjust after hearing the feedback.

cut to 1 hour and 2 min in the next time you watch the movie.
What am I looking for, besides this?

Humor me. Nothing I heard said anything about Vegas.
