I didn't know Giantrobo swung both ways. And crossed the beastiality line.

DaveyJoe

I'm not judging.

Such an incredibly effective scene.

RocShemp

Well he does love trannies. Slippery slope, my friend. Slippery slope...

If you replace the solid-state models of Harryhausen movies with digital ones, there really isn't a lot to differentiate them from Jurassic Park or Cloverfield. I love my some giant monster movies, but it's a genre which has undergone little to no evolution in 75 years.

Solid Snake

I know. Say what you will about something like Star Wars being a phenomenon for a kid. But it has nothing like power of that scene. Spielberg made dinosaurs real. Like that made my mind explode as a kid. I was like 6. Totally was into dinosaurs. I remember crying out of joy cuz I was seeing a real dinosaur.

And especially the way that scene is crafted together is so well. It's not a beat of action or surprise but one of bubbling awe.

I hate to break it to you, but

Sure. Ruin the magic, why don't you?

Geez, let the kid have his fun. Next you'll tell him Santa Claus isn't real.

Giantrobo

Fair enough....

I can't wait for the posts where people complain about the destruction that Godzilla causes.

Just bought my IMAX tickets for Thurs. 5/15 @ 7pm. Kinda weird how some theaters can do such early showings. Whatever, I ain't complaining.

Just bought my IMAX tickets. Reserved seating and everything. Awesome! May 18th!

i promised my cousin (who is autistic) that if the movie came out again, i would take him to see it in style. He loves godzilla and has drawn it so many times...

awesome new Imax Poster

For some reason I expected Cranston to get top billing. At least he got the coveted "and" credit.

yoshimi

Godzilla should have top billing. The big G needs a new agent.

Ash Ketchum

I overheard some geeks in a comic book store recently talking about how every time a building is destroyed in one of these films, there are people who die, people who have stories, etc. I have a response if someone was ever to comment like that directly to me and it would be: "No, there ARE no people in those buildings being destroyed. They're special effects--miniatures (or CGI) with no characters in them. If the filmmakers were to put identifiable characters IN those buildings and GIVE them backstories, then--and only then--would your statement be true. Those buildings are merely symbolic representations of buildings that would hypothetically be knocked down if a giant dinosaur were to rampage among them."

Fuck! It's great to see the Toho logo before a Godzilla flick after 10 years!

They don't get it til July? Suckers!

Giantrobo

In G '54 they had no problem showing people die with or without a back story. I have always maintained that films like this cannot happen without understanding that mass deaths are going to happen whether they show it onscreen or not.

I just wonder when so many film viewers became such pussies on this topic...

I so want that poster as a wallpaper.

Off to 4chan, see if /wg/ can help.

I would too, but even the new iOS still can't seem to scale photos properly !
