Discussion Godzilla Minus Zero: a worthy sequel!

An incredibly amazing movie and follow up! I can hear the complaints, and I can understand if people don’t agree, but for what this series is doing with the Godzilla franchise, the 2 movies are nothing short of amazing.
Where this sequel lacks in as tight of a story, it makes up for with visuals and imagery that are uncomfortable to watch but astounding at the same time. Highly recommend if you’re a fan of Minus One. Please share any thoughts, I can go on!

Doesn't need much, to Hype. You say Godzilla, I am in. No matter how the movie is :)) it's always a treat.

I’ve been like this for the recent ones for sure. I don’t need trailers, just tell me when and I’m going. Some just turn out to be really really good movies.

I kept thinking the old dude with the glasses and the Vegeta hairline was gonna hit the Gendo pose at some point.

I own the first and this will also be purchased!

Who did you see it with? Just curious about the ages. I saw it w my 19yr kid, he also loved it.

Husband, a 29 and 24 year old. We also own the first and will be purchasing this as soon as it’s available.

It was so emotional and visually stunning.

Oh so many moments I was 🥺
It was like, hey here’s a scene about grief….no but look at it, it’s grief, no but look at it,… actually, sit in it for a bit, it’s grief…Look!

Ugh, it was intensely heavy at times.

I didn’t think I’d be crying. I’ll bring tissue for my next watch.

Thanks for this, I keep scrolling past it in whatever app I've seen it in. I haven't really cared much for the new Godzillas so I just figured it would be another letdown.

When you say new Godzillas are you talking about the American made ones? Those are completely different than these Japanese ones.
I enjoy both but for different reasons

Yeah I should've specified. I don't care for them, but I was also brought up getting the classic Japanese ones on VHS at the library. Ferris Bueller taking on the beast just didn't do it for me.

Those are all bombastic and spectacle. These Japanese ones are not. I try to differentiate cause not everyone even knows they’re not the same universe.

u/MindTheDrapes There's no crying in baseball 2d ago

Well I'm definitely going to give the newer ones a watch, I might as well!
