wait we never see Shin Godzilla's first form, not entirely
Shin Godzilla form 1 creeps me out!
Curious on what direction they would take a live-action TV series, since I am not a fan of Camp Cretaceous and don't consider it Canon.
As far movies go, I think they should take a break for awhile (given that Dominion was advertised as the conclusion, and given the more negative reactions to it), however, I don't think they should just stop the series entirely. I think they should focus on making more short films, like they did with Battle At Big Rock, or maybe even another TV series, since those have done really well critically.
To get the dinosaurs off the island and bring them to the mainland. I am curious how they will continue off this point should the franchise receives more movies or even a TV series.
In the box office I mean. I don't get why the critics hate it. I mean the story is no longer about the islands anymore, that was the entire point of the Jurassic World trilogy.
well if the movie does well they said it might not be the finale
As both a military brat and a fan of military science fiction, the Trailer needs to be reworked, since the marines didn't behave like either proper marines or even proper colonial marines.
I do like the fact this video game will be using the Alien RPG as its lore bible.
guys I think hes talking about that roblox game again.
The trailer looks great, glad to know there is another Alien game coming and keep the saga active.
I'm personally really mixed on the movie. Overall I enjoyed it and I definitely don't think it deserves the insane hatred that it's been getting, but as a finale to the movies it kind of felt a bit underwhelming. For me, it's tied with Fallen Kingdom as the weakest (Although that's kind of a testament to how much I enjoy the other movies).
I really liked Dominion, I think critics wanted a kill-them-all dinosaur apocalypse movie. The giant locus made more sense as being a threat to mankind and ties in with biosyn being a InGEN's evil twin
In some ways I'm kind of glad that the Prologue isn't a part of the movie and is instead its own thing. The Prologue was a pretty well made short film and while it would've helped to set up the Rex and Giga rivalry, I feel like the negative response that people are having to the movie would've held that scene back and would've caused it to be overlooked. At least it can now be appreciated on it's own.
Minor update:
Shin Ultraman has been added to both attendance charts for comparison. Though it includes its attendance as of today, which is a little higher than the weekend's. (Naturally.)
UPDATE 6/14/2022:
5th weekend actuals have arrived from World of KJ, via Kogyotsushin. Shin Ultraman had an outstanding hold. It remained at #3 for the second weekend in a row. (Top Gun: Maverick dropped to #2, dethroned by the latest Dragon Ball movie.) The estimates were accurate, with Shin Ultraman holding at 3.56 Billion Yen, which exchanges to $27.6 million today. (Any other year it would've exchanged to around $35 million.)
It's closing in on the 4 Billion Yen milestone. Should it get anywhere near that in its 6th weekend, it should surpass or equal Son of Godzilla (2.48M) and/or Destroy All Monsters (2.50M). It will also be very close to topping Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (2.70M). Additionally, it's also closing in on Spider-Man: No Way Home's final attendance. (2.77M)
Shin Ultraman is the 6th highest grossing film of the year in Japan. It's the 3rd highest grossing Japanese movie of 2022 and the 1st highest grossing live action Japanese movie of the year. Although the exchange rate to USD is at its lowest since 1998, it has easily outgrossed every giant monster/kaiju movie in the last 10 years with the exception of Shin Godzilla.
The point is it's now carving into the Golden Age (50s & 60s) and Heisei Series which are the two most successful eras of the Godzilla franchise. While attendance is slowing to a crawl, it's still in the top 3 at the box office and has many weeks of life left in it.
Charts have been updated with corrections to other movies as well.
Gosh, I'm glad the BvS Martha joke is finally getting mileage with GvK.
I think the most simple explanation is as follows. The green glass like ampoules within the large black organic vessels are essentially organic weapons. The green gem is also holding such a weapon but of more magnitude. Which is what is depicted in the relief emboss directly above the gem (Xenomorph). As the ultimate weapon and the biggest green vessel it’s clearly the organic based nuke of choice, the gold standard alien pathogen aka a Queen (or the means to create one). That’s my theory anyway. (Ps I know this is years later but still re watching in 2022!)

Umm Dr. Wu has the ability to clone dinosaurs, he literally had a specially designed suitcase filled with embryos and DNA of dinosaurs
So far my only complaint is they should have added the prologue into the beginning of the movie. To build up why Rexy and the Giganotosaurus fight was important
You should start gaming, there is an entire expanded universe with great stories to offer
Will there be humans that play an important role in it or will it just be synthetics? If it will just be synths versus aliens then no tanks.
I'm not much of a gamer but it's good to see this franchise being around still.
UPDATE 6/13/2022:
5th weekend estimates are in from Eiga Ranking News. Shin Ultraman is at an estimated 3.551 Billion Yen (estimated $26.5 Million). The film received a massive percentage boost from its 4DX release this weekend, which gave it a Friday of 108% over the prior Friday.
Attendance is estimated at 2.39 Million. It has officially beat every Monsterverse movie and Champion Festival movie in both tickets and gross.
(As of Monday, it has sold an estimated 2.41 Million, meaning it has also topped every Millennium Godzilla film, including GMK, as well as Higuchi's Attack on Titan - Part 1.)
Should actuals hold, Shin Ultraman is now more successful than 52% of the Godzilla series. It is also more successful than every non-Godzilla kaiju/giant monster movie released in Japan in the last 10 years.
That was a non-canonical ride with Godzilla fighting the EVA units.
Additionally, if you count that, you should also count the solo 4D ride as well.
Nicozilla,
A) It's not a ripoff. It is the Mosnterverse Rodan.
B) Why would you be mad about that if they're referencing it? That makes no sense.
I think godzilla 2002-03 becuse sometimes when he roars he looks like he's surprised which looks ugly
I saw that design before. It was from Godzilla vs Gamera. I think its 2022 Godzilla!!!
I liked the The Return of Godzilla (2007- 09) movie. it seems like a forgotten movie.
Battle of the Mechs would have been cool bc they had Mechagodzilla 2021 and Godzilla 2021, a related Zilla Jr alien, and Jaegers from Pacific Rim. I saw it on Youtube
I think the next Godzilla 3 movie is gonna Godzilla: King of the Sea
