Anyone catch this today? What did you like, what could have been done better? I'm surprised no one was laughing in the theatre at the Engrish.

Americans won't laugh if it's not a quip with a laughtrack inserted. At best they'll clap, but you need Old Glories for that.

The whole theater I was in was laughing at the beginning. I didn't think it was funny at all. Dumb Americans.
>>
My theatre only laughed at the appropiate moments. Like the soggy noodles or meeting with the biologists. I'm glad, usually mexican audiences are more retarded and annoying.

>b-b-but Americans!!!

I saw this in theaters with Americans. It went fine.

>>86195505
I thought the googly eyes were goofy but I suppose that's because we aren't supposed to see Godzilla as a threat yet.

>>86194459
Canary Wharf Cineworld?

Yeah I saw it. What a gigantic piece of shit.

Constant subtitling of every fucking person in every fucking shot, of every individual room in every fucking building, of every military vehicle like it was done by an otaku with a military fetish.

No real characters, no real relationships so I barely gave shit about the main characters. Dumb dialogue, dumb characters, I mean, I get the bureaucracy angle it was going for but the prime minister was just retarded and they hammered the message over the entire movie.

Should've been called Godzilla : Exposition dump.

And Japan is STILL salty about WW2 and takes potshots at the US, it's like they forgot the US is keeping them afloat while being surrounded by pissed off asian neighbours.

wait, why would people be laughing? what am i missing?

>today

What do you all mean by this?? Is it out wide somewheres? A cursory Google search says Ireland?

It's excellent anyway, one of the strongest remakes i can think of. Just like the first the political metaphor has never felt more vital.
>>
>>86196396
It was in cineworld today across the UK.

It was a terrible movie. Directed by Anno which made it even worse.

Everybody in the cinema was disappointed and bored.
>>
I'm American and the people in my theater laughed at the Engrish. Not full-blown laughter but people were amused. It was mostly funny because (IIRC) she was supposed to be American-born but couldn't speak English. If she was just a Japanese person speaking English it wouldn't have been as funny.

I laughed my ass off as soon a godzookie came out of the water with his googly eyes it set off a chain reaction of other nerds laughing. I do love the movie but fuck I could not help but laugh at this.
>>
>>86196916
Please tell me why this holds a 68% metacritic score despite being immensely boring.

And why are the nips still lamenting about the nukes dropped on them.
>>
>>86195217
Man I fucking wish. When I saw it in Seattle the audience would just laugh at everything.

Surprised there weren't more nerd types, pretty normie looking audience except for a fat guy in a trench coat.

The subtitling was pretty awful especially when it was alternating between top and bottom to avoid all the clutter. I didn't pay attention to any of the characters names because I figured on pretty early it would play up the faceless bureaucrat thing. I thought it was quite self aware with Japan's antpeople culture being slow and ineffective. I saw the potshots as more a commentary on Japanese being backward looking instead of having a destiny/self-determination. They did subvert expectations with the comedy agriculture PM actually handling it without stressing.

>why is another ethnicity still whinging about the wrongs whitey caused

You know the current year right?
>>
>>86197354
You mean wrongs that nips caused. China, Korea and whole host of other asian nations wouldn't should a tear if Japan fell into the sea.
>>
Best Godzilla movie since the original. The atomic breath scene was amazingly done.
>>
>>86196509
This video is kind of bullshit, I could have sworn there was a direct line of dialogue from EVA and the orange panels were a pretty obvious reference.

She needed two sets of subtitles, I understood half of what she said.

It was about looking inward this time, to Japanese autonomy, nuclear tech included, and what that might mean these many years later, rather than looking to place blame on America or anywhere else.

I liked it despite its many flaws.

Nice to see a godzilla film made for the same reason as original

Slant-eyes don't mind the royalty checks that come in from that though.

>>86198747
Nah. I just haven't seen the current one.

>>86198972
Well, it's shite except for the engrish "american" girl and the charming googlyzilla.
>>
>>86199077
Oh are they kawaii enough to make you forget that it's a meme movie?
>>
>>86199220
Not really, it's pretty much a slog since godzilla appears for about 20 minutes total and the rest is "satire" on bureaucracy.
>>
>>86194459
Amazing. Love the music as well, Anno is a mad man.

>>86195941
Hideaki Anno is an otaku with a military fetish.

>>86196509
Pleb. Seemed like people enjoyed it at the cinema I went to. My friends and I loved it.

Figures.

>Pleb. Seemed like people enjoyed it at the cinema I went to. My friends and I loved it.

"Piss poor", "It was pretty boring to be honest" and "I wanted to like it" were sentences I heard as I left my theatre. My friend fell asleep towards the end.
