Yeah that's kinda the issue,you harp on it to much and it makes it seem like you outright hate the film. Maybe town it down a bit? Some here would appreciate that.

Yeah? Well I’d appreciate if that hand full of people here stopped living in denial but we don’t always get what we want now do we?
People have just as much right to praise as they do bash and I think you should appreciate that :)

I do, i respect all opinions...but it's like the endless hate on 98 and the anime trilogy,it gets kinda annoying after a while y'know?

It goes both ways, it gets annoying seeing people act like no one had problems with the movie except for a handful of nerds on TK and that the flaws are made up in some people’s heads because they’re spoiled.

You harp on the film way more than you say positive things. This is your right but don't say it "seems" like you are harping more. Because you are. So you can't really play the victim when you were posting 30 posts a day and made your opinions quite known.

Not trying to put you on the spot but lets be real here ;)

Which is kinda funny, because out of most of the people who hated the movie before it even came out, I remember your reactions being the least negative out of the bunch. I don't know if I'm remembering wrong, but I think you even said it had some good parts.

Also a little off topic, but is Orichalcon secretly Stump Feet? Your style of posting and mixed stance on the movie that contrasts with the stuff you say about it seems quite familiar.

Happy to see that some people are acknowledging that performance aside G98 is still worse than KOTM

As far as I can tell its one person here that says no one had problems with the film. Who are these "people"?

I mean, you have just as many people repeating the positives on an almost daily basis because they don’t have anything better to say.

I could be coming into threads just to talk negatives non stop but I don’t, I respond to posts claiming that negativity doesn’t exists anywhere but here like in this certain instance, that seems totally fair to me.

Is this a trap :lol: I really don’t feel comfortable calling out memebers in this thread because I don’t want them running in here “REEEEing” on me but I’ll happily PM you.

The point of my post was you said it may "seem" like you harp on the film more, when the reality is that you do. You can't play the victim when the reality is almost all your posts are negative. Its fine you didn't like the film. But I find it weird you call out jnavs for his positivity yet some people are literally negative on every single post in here and you never call them out. Kind of funny how that works.

There’s nothing wrong with positivity at all, the problem I have is this imaginary narrative some people live in where if you didn’t love the movie, you’re wrong and in the minority

Not really? Who here is negative? Mr. Goji? Dude’s funnin’ with you all and some people choose to get overly upset over it. I chuckle, I sometimes agree, and I move on.

Alright. This is starting to verge on flaiming (and trolling). So, how about we get back to the thread topic and take all other conversations to PMs?

Thank you.

You've kind of changed your story here. Our original point was that you said that "people" say that "no one" had problems with the film. I said to you that besides jnavs no one has said that (that Ive seen). That seems to be an over generalization.

Based on what I've seen no one has got mad about Watchy's shtick for quite a while. Hes admitted hes a troll so its easy to dimiss him.

Back to my original point is I just think you need to take a step back and see what your posts look like. You pulled the victim card when you arent a victim. Plain and simple. If I were you I'd just block jnavs since it seems all your issues lie with him

Really? I thought I made it quite clear about all the offenders in our PM, JNavs just so happens to be the only one still going at it like we both agreed and the only person I’ve responded to.

And I wasn’t referring to Mr. Goji, I was asking you who you meant when you proclaimed that I don’t call anyone out for being negative and assumed you were referring to him. :shrug:

We could have kept this in the PM’s like we were doing, not sure why you felt the need to call me out again publicly after Mari asked us to stop.

So hopping back on topic like Mari said, while I thoroughly enjoyed KOTM like many others, I absolutely cannot wait for GvK to blow the socks off of everyone. Whatever happens in 2020, we'll have an iconic fight for the ages and it will be a staple in the franchise for decades to come.

Hopefully we get a G3 and a K2 out of it!

How would you guys feel if a Godzilla Kaiju was the main antagonist in a Kong sequel?
