Legendary Pictures' Godzilla

[DragonFreak]

I have the feeling dragonfreak is defs going to watch this.

I am not a big Godzilla fan...or any at all.......yet, since I have not really watched any Godzilla movie, I can see myself liking the movies, especially this one.

Please watch Godzilla VS. Mechagodzilla

Perhaps if I can get a copy and/or pirate iti online.

I would lend it to you but this is the Internet.

Don't worry I sent him links.

Thanks again!

The Japanese think the new Godzilla is a fatass.

I like the comment where the person said that he was chubby and cute.

Oh they have no right to complain. Must I bring up the '93 Godzilla?

The Japanese think the new Godzilla is a fatass.

Yes, there is a strong running belief that Godzilla is just too fat! It seems this take on the character has put on one too many pounds during his hibernation. And the critiscm has spread across the Internet. One adamant Japanese fan had this to say after seeing Godzilla for the first time.

""Whichever way you look at it, he's an American fatty!"

The name Godzilla is a combination of gorilla and kujira (meaning Whale). This new American version of the giant lizard pulls both of those animals into its physique and build, but that doesn't seem to matter. The people of Japan like their giant lizards to be on the svelte side. Another outraged fan Tweeted:

"He got fat in America on cola and pizza!"
Japan is known for its image of Americans as a nation of expanding waistlines. This stereotype doesn't come without justification, as obesity levels are below 4% in that country compared to the U.S., where the obesity rate is 36%.

Here are other complaints heard about Godzilla in the past week.

"He's couch potato Godzilla ."


"It's got no neck."


"He Supersized."


"Marshmallow-Godzilla?"


At least a couple of the younger Japanese fans seemed to be okay with Godzilla's swelling beer gut.

"It's chubby and cute."


"It looks like a seal.


"I'm looking forward to this. Well, everyone gets middle-age spread."

While the Japanese fans have been pretty harsh in their fat shaming of the iconic beast, they are at least positive about the movie itself.

"It looks better than the last Hollywood Godzilla. He looks stronger than the original."

Godzilla marks the movie monster's 60th Anniversary, and will be released in Japan under the Toho banner. While Godzilla is ready to stomp on American audiences May 16, Japan will have to wait a little longer, as it doesn't open overseas until July 25. Maybe he can undergo a CGI tummy tuck before then. At this time, Warner Bros., Legendary Films and Gareth Edwards have no comment about his apparent weight gain. Perhaps he can get on the treadmill and slim down before the sequel.

Haha

Aaand ticket preordered. Can't wait for wednesday!

I thought it doesn't start playing till Thursday night?

Anyway, I'm not going to buy my ticket until reviews come out, just to make sure. I have a feeling it'll be highly rated, but I'm still going to be cautious. 80% or higher on Rotten tomatoes should be fine for me, maybe 70% or higher if people here say it's good.
