I was surprised that Godzilla: King of the Monsters was not a bigger hit with critics or at the box office. The trailers for it looked great, and everything that I wanted from the first film but did not get. Even so, I hear that even if the plot and the humans underwhelmed but the actual monster battles are epic. That's all I really want out of the movie though, so I am still inclined to pick up a copy for my home collection.
One of my favorite Godzillas...Marvel's is another...
ReplyDelete#Gazookie!
ReplyDeleteWho's next- Dynomut?
Speaking of Dynomut....have you thought of teaming him with Inspector Gadget or Machine Man?
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I'd buy this issue in a Bedrock minute. :-)
ReplyDeleteMBurks - There's a handy list of characters on the page... click on Dynomutt and you'll see he's met both already!
ReplyDeleteHow about Deadpool vs. The Badger? Perhaps as part of a recruitment drive by the Lunatic Fringe?
ReplyDeleteWatching a Godzilla movie for the plot is like watching a Bruce Lee movie for the acting. If the fights are epic, the movie is epic. And anyone who doesn't get that obviously came to the wrong movie.
ReplyDeleteIt will be much better on DVD because you can skip all the human-only stuff and go straight to the monster fights. Not missing anything by doing that.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I do with all the music / dancing / talent / ninja competition shows. I record them, then fast-forward through all the sob/back-story introduction stuff and just watch the performances. I get through a two hour show in about 25 minutes.
ReplyDeleteWill Captain Caveman use (a) special utility club(s) containing a shellder, growlithe, or pikachu? XD!
ReplyDeleteI keep hoping that there will be a Godzilla movie featuring Steve Martin, playing a reporter named Raymond Burr.
ReplyDeleteHow did you know I wanted to see this? I didn't know I wanted to see this!
ReplyDelete@Mightor!!: The "Dyno" in Dynomutt's name relates to "dynamic", not "dinosaur"!

Dynomutt had some new components added that also accidentally gave him time travel abilities. He'll be perfect for Captain Caveman!

ReplyDeleteSince Captain Caveman made it to today, he could team with Dynomutt and Scooby-doo,
so forget the time travel and give them the present.

Good point. It's not easy making a billion dollar movie that doesn't have epic battles. IT can be done but it's not easy.

ReplyDelete@Pegasus' Horsefeathers: In one Captain Caveman short, based in the world of the Flintstones, the hero time-traveled forward (with Betty and Wilma) to the home time period of time-traveling villain Futuro, which happened(?) to be, by TV-viewer standards, the PRESENT!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the villain was one-time Impossibles foe Dr. Futuro?
