I don’t think being nick picky about details is a bad thing. It’s not a direct cause of the rudeness found in the paleontological community, If someone is gonna be sick of it they can but it’s dependent on both parties to stay calm.
Was it? I don’t think Indoraptor was stronger But I really don’t think it was weaker
True...but that was after the first round
Yeah but the skin was supposed to be STRONGER THAN OTHER DINOS
Rex was getting beat up by a grandma t rex
Hence genetically modified
Where in the movie does it say that?
True, but the Rex showed more by taking on multiple dinos. Indo Rap. only faced one dino. Also I do have to say I get the purpose of Blue but it's kind of boring and even a bit ballsy.
Ballsy as in not making sense
Imma sound like one of the dino people Sasquadash was complaining about. But when you dig up fossils, its not bone, it’s Rock in the shape of the bones
are you kidding, The I rex was getting by a really old T. rex and Veliociraptor. Blue could barely handle Indoraptor in JWFK.
Well design-wise I see where you're coming from. But for starters the Indo Rex was harder to kill and that was stressful in a moviegoer sense of way.
The Indoraptor simply fell on some sharp bones and died....
I like the Indoraptor better then Indo Rex, if I’m being honest
People are like that on the internet.
I rant but a i don’t try to sound angry...
TRY
I do wish I had better things to say but it's hard unless I'm thinking of the OG or the first Jurassic World...
I like the idea of who created "gods." I just don't like it in the Alienverse. It's still my opinion that Prometheus would have been much better as something that had nothing to do with Alien.
JP canon: Combine all three GMO Dinos (Indominus, Indoraptor, Scorpius)
Real-Life: T-Rex and Moasaurus
My point is the trailer better be good enough to restore hype for Dominion
After the disappointment of Fallen Kingdom, my honest opinion is that the franchise should not continue. But spinoffs would be a better bet if Universal wants to continue with Jurassic Park/World
I swear I read something long ago that said that Jesus Christ was supposedly an engineer? Not sure if it was a fan theory or confirmed, but it's an interesting idea to explore.
Not to blaspheme, but when looking at the concept of the Holy Trinity, that could be a way to explain the Higher Power/Powers that created the Engineers. The Holy Spirit interpreted as a being of pure energy and then God as an extremely powerful alien deity that used/worked with the Holy Spirit to create the Engineers. From here, we can even liken Angels to being another alien species that serve the Creators. In the fictional universe that is the Alien franchise, it could be that the Bible was humanity's way of attempting to understand the teachings that the Engineer who was known as Jesus Christ preached.
Giganotosaurus + Carcharodontosaurus + Therizinosaurus. The first two just because they're my favourite therapods, and Therizino for its arms.
I would create an hybrid with an allosaurus base, stegosaurus spikes on the tail, with octopus tentacles on its mouth. The arms of a theriznosaurus, and teeth and bite force of the T. rex. It would have a long neck like a gallimimus
A semi aquatic Triceratops hybrid covered with Ankylosaur armor and a Spinosaurus sail on it's back.
The A.I. notion is pretty vague. It seemed to have enough awareness to fortify itself into an entire city, but not to become battle ready. The main issue with the anime trilogy isn't the monster battles, or even the ideas, but the way it subverts logical storytelling for the sake of symbolism. I'm not entirely opposed to it, as it works for stuff like the ending of Shin Godzilla. But moments like those are tight and isolated for the audience to chew on.
The idea that MechaGodzilla is an A.I., in so far that it represents a sort of god to the bilasaludo that must be interpreted and sacrificed to via their own faith (in technology), leaves some logical holes hanging that an entire two movies had the chance to fill. It works for Urobuchi's themes though and the ironic parallels of the bilasaludo's technological practice and paganism isn't lost on me.
Also, I suppose it's better than lip servicing a shoehorned life-vs-artificial-life theme into a movie that had no A.I. Looking at you Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II.
More new people, Time to make a topic!
Kids Look! A New Member!!!
In all seriousness, welcome to the forum.
I see what you mean. But similar but not super similar
for some reason this poster reminds me of some showa era kaiju posters.i dont know why
THATS WHY HE IS EMPORER! HE SHALL CONQUER ALL OF THE INTERNET
I will say, the kaiju they didn’t botch in the anime, is Godzilla himself. He had a very commanding screen presence
As I tried to say, the bilasaludo are doing what it wants, it doesn’t need to do all the work when others can do it for it.
What I meant with the artificial intelligence argument was that they establish that MG can think for itself, yet all of its actions are directly controlled by the Bilusaludo. It never actually thinks for itself, so what was the point of establishing that idea if they never use it?
I'll admit my statement of it "letting itself be destroyed" was a bit exaggerated, but at the same time both Godzilla and Haruo attack it and it barely does anything to prevent its own destruction.
Yeah good for them
HinikunaGoji,
The Exif work more as a cult than a religion. The Planet Eater has a literal "drink the Kool-aid," scene more evocative of Jonestown.
I always found that aspect fascinating, because they seem so convincing until their true motives rain down--Such is the way of most famous cults.
SasquaDash,
They established that the reason it was hiding, however, was so it could rebuild itself. I also think "allows itself to be destroyed" is a stretch considering Haruo opened fire on it, so it couldn't respond or propagate. The point that he finally landed on was that it might potentially be a grater threat to literal humanity than Godzilla.
I was with you until this point, “The other thing that bugs me about is that the movies build up the idea of it having an advanced artificial intelligence, yet everything that done by Mechagodzilla is directly controlled by the aliens. So what was the point of giving it artificial intelligence?”
The artificial intelligence helped further the themes that Mechagodzilla presented in this interpretation. It not only showed nanometal as some dangerous thing, but giving it perceived intelligence. Giving a villain motivation other than, The plot told me to is always a good thing. And by making Nanometal/MG intelligeny, it can portray it more as a villain manipulating the Bilasaludo, which again is something new the anime provided into the godzilla franchise. The bilasaludo weren’t in control, they were pawns.
I’ve noticed some things people seem to get wrong about these films. The biggest one is the nature of the exif. People seem to think their all faith based, when in reality that is completely wrong. If you listen to anything Metphies says, then you know they can literally prove ghidorah exists with math and science.
As much as I say I don’t like the execution, I really do like these movies.
"Anime Mechagodzilla, Go Destroy Godzilla!!!"
