was speaking to a teller at my company's bank and asked him if he would be watching the new godzilla movie. he pretty much said he had seen the 1998 one, the 2014 and he's tired of godzilla. there were no good movies that he had seen and he's seen "alot". Told me he wouldn't be watching this one.
And yet...Nobody gets tired of superhero films? The irony... :lol:

I mean, not to dismiss your "evidence", but, uh... This dude sounds like he just doesn't like movies in general.

i literally said the same thing to him. I said Marvel comes out with a million movies and I bet you went to watch all of them. and he goes "yeah and i bet all of them are better than this godzilla movie will be".

I mean i was cool with his opinion. I don't care too much as I'll still watch it. Just shows that the GA may not all rush to see it

my bad for the confusion. He said he had seen alot of godzilla movies and he didn't really like any of them.

This might just be the mindset for most general audience

My thoughts exactly. You can't win them all, and that's okay.

But it's one guy. We can't come to conclusions either way with a sample size so small.

OAP's make up a higher number of the population and their numbers only increase as people age. Godzilla's fucked. 65 year old Franchise killed by the 65 year olds.

But what if this one guy is the most important guy to the franchise success?

I honestly fail to see the problem here. From the sound of his comment it sounds like he just doesn't like Godzilla in general, which is perfectly fine lol. Different strokes for different folks. Nothing to get worried about lmao :lol:

It's a hard franchise to get into and most of the latter half of it are bad films anyways, wouldn't blame the guy, not would I doubt that it's a widespread sentiment,

Sorry kino grandpa, but they're modern so they're better, okay sweetie? Maybe if this guy started with Megaguirus or Final Wars he'd be singing a different tune.

Given how Dumbo underperformed may had played a part for why Aladdin might not do as well but I'm still keeping an open mind it could perform greatly.

I mean, something has to give a group it's recognizeable identity. In the case of TK it's the complete lack of rationality that bonds us :lol:
