One things for sure. Sollgell Island is NOT MonsterLand/Island. Some people assume that they're the same place.

Yeah, I think one of the drawings as the main hero passes a wall is Kemular. I remember it being stated on the commentary.

Yup! I watched the commentary and they flat-out say it.
The plastic boobs in the Japanese version were pretty hilarious - why bother? Also, I never knew there was a schizo American edit AND a sensible one. It's nice to have a linear English version for when I feel like snickering at dubbing.

^ That scene really bugs me. It has NO purpose whatsoever, and I don't like nudity in films to start with.

The purpose of the exposed chest is to contrast a realistic, generally pleasant aspect of human anatomy with the artificial and decidedly unpleasant machinery which that appealing surface-layer conceals.

One thing I have always wondered was whether they were supposed to be her real boobs, or actual cover ups, and plastic ones to hide her machinery.menschenjaeger wrote:Yup! I watched the commentary and they flat-out say it.

Nudity is awesome. I wish films had more casual nudity. The human body is much to incredibly attractive to keep wrapped in clothes for every film.

Re: Terror of Mechagodzilla Discovery
I just can't imagine why somebody would be so appalled by some fake breasts. It's just kinda..odd.
Being so opposed to nudity must mean one thing: You've fast-forwarded every sex/nude scene in every film you've ever seen on home video. Ever.

Re: Terror of Mechagodzilla Discovery
I understand Cimmerian Dragon's point in his initial response, but couldn't they have just shown, say, her bare belly? Couldn't that be enough?
I find nudity generally unnecessary. If revealing those parts is looked down upon in real life, why do we want to see it in the media?

Re: Terror of Mechagodzilla Discovery
It shouldn't be looked down upon in real life. What's the big deal with nudity? Oh, she's showing a natural part of her body! So horrible! Think of the children! I've never quite understood what the big problem with nudity is

It's "looked down upon" by whom? American prudes? Parents of sheltered teenagers? Asexual human beings?
I like you Rody, so I'll just cut this short. I don't want to get on your bad side any more than I probably already have.

I'm no expert on the subject, but I think religion has something to do with it. After all, religion did play a large part in shaping society into what it is today.Cimmerian Dragon wrote: Listen, you can like or dislike what you want. However, until men are required to cover their nipples, it's pretty foolish to ask women to do so. It's the same darn body part, right down to the ability to lactate (as Scientific American showed showed on the previous page). I'll never understand why folks find the human body so disturbing. I remember when Watchmen came out, and all my male friends did was bitch about seeing Dr. Manhattan's penis. Why? Don't you have one? Does your own rod offend you when you catch a glimpse of it? For the love of all that's holy, it's all just epidermis! Why are some parts of our anatomy considered so horrifying, but others, like the elbow or belly-button, are not? Is it just because there are orifices involved? Then why not censor nostrils? Boogers bother me a lot more than butt cheeks.
Sigh. I'll probably never understand this.

Pretty much, and because of that, there is absolutely no way this problem will ever turn around.

It's too taboo, it can't work in our current society, and there's too many ignorant people in the world.

But something not being attractive to look at isn't the same as being some kind of moral sin. If it was, Michael Moore could never leave his basement.

Well, kaiju don't wear clothes for one thing.
