    Finally bit the bullet and saw Godzilla x Kong - it was as dumb as I thought and worse than I feared. I literally fell asleep 20 minutes from the end and missed most of the final battle. :facepalm:

    This should be fucking hilarious. Agree about his writing, but his over the top snarkiness should make for great content on this topic.

    It's getting a bunch of physical releases 5/1 in Japan. Hopefully one of them will have English subtitles.

    Rewatched this last night and was reminded how great it is. It really speaks to the talent of Elmore Leonard that like four of his stories have been made into perfect movies/shows. I’d forgotten how good everyone is in this top to bottom

    It worked for me.

    At that point, who wins the match doesn’t matter. They’ve all gotten what they wanted and what they needed out of the match, the moment and for their relationship (s?) going forward.

    All of them coming to that realization — verbalized by the Zendaya yell that flashes back to the first time they were all together on a tennis court — brings it full circle.

    pros: It has Hunter Schafer

    Well when every single scene has every single character in it trying to say something clever or witty or cheeky, you’d expect eventually someone would actually say something clever or cheeky or witty.

    Met the hype. Really enjoyed it. Cinematography and music is great.

    I saw a quote, “if Godzilla wasn’t in this movie it would still be a good movie.” The human element was the best part to me. A specific scene will stick with me for a while.
