I told my sister this joke (she’d never seen the movie but but she was researching Red Tide) and she cited the movie, took a gif, and included it in a presentation for her Masters in oceanography. Her thesis advisor approved, but apparently also had no idea what the movie is. This line has helped people.

I know t rex and stegosaurus, but what were the other inspirations?

Forever proving the stereotype that Asians are awesome at math.

its because one of the lead members nickname was Gojira, so, they gave him that name, preety cool to have a giant, radio active monster named out of you, right?

Godzilla was named gojira after the nick name of one of the people at toho

They could b heroes!!!! Just for one day.

***** OK, I think you might have got the idea that I was dissing Americans in general. I wasn't. If anything American audiences keep proving that the movie studios underestimate them by enjoying non-American media, like Doctor Who..

GriffinPilgrim I saw this in the theater and I just remember it holding my interest but I do recall everyone in the audience laughing when he quoted Elvis.

bradley mayse This was actually one of the first films I saw at the cinema. Gods know what my parents were thinking. Set my standards for films rather low for a few years.

+GriffinPilgrim Your lot? You mean vampires?

GeorgeMonet...how'd you get there? Brits, mate, Brits.

Yasha TDP Yep, and they will keep it in the room with perfect kilogram prototype. It will be signed "a perfect goatee" :)

Yasha TDP HOW'D YOU KNOW I STOLE IT!?!?

I saw it in your eyes...

Yasha TDP oml lol

i don't get it .. sooo ?

Poppity pop pop pop!

2004Zilla I got a fishy feeling

I feel bad for the monster

Achillez i sorta luaghed at that but i dont see why doug doesnt think its funny

Toho did not have to buy the rights since they already owned the character.

I guess, but I know they did something to keep that studio from making any other Godzilla movies.

Godzilla Finals Wars, you know a REAL Godzilla movie.

tanith117 Toho just revoked the IP rights locking off any chance for next 6!

AFguy99 I AGREE!!!!!!!

But you can call me Dot.

Retro Gameing Guitarist it's Tatopoulos

BeatleBoy247 Whatever.

I don't know. Doesn't seem that much.

Tailess Boo I think there was more fish in the latest Hobbit movie.

+Kai Uhll Toho rules.

And then the atagonist mentions how he didn't even expect the "tuna eating monster" to win. Best movie ever.

Travis Smith I bet you're a guy who doesn't even know anything about the stuff in any Godzilla film ever. Modern Japanese Godzilla is to this day King of the Kaijuu. Not saying the UNDEFEATED king, but every king loses a battle once in a while. He is a gracious monster, clocking in at WAY taller than Zilla ever was.

agreed.

"I never liked that Tunahead anyway." My favorite line from the dub of Final Wars.

he thought McCain would win the election. When Obama won, he had to shave

***** Some other sources actually say he shaved it off in reality to be the Joker for Halloween.

Mi Ga he said himself in a video somewhere

***** His Rocky IV review, I think.

***** Yeah, he had a joke where he was arguing with himself in a bathrobe or something.

Yet they couldn't seem to help theirselves in WW2. For a big strong country like France you'd expect them to put up more of a fight during WW2.

Well that wasn't our brightest day, but mostly any country would've been screwed if they had been right beside the power that was Germany in the 1940s

Yes, but the fact that they surrendered was entirely the fault of the government at the time, as proven by the massive amount of resistance during the period they were occupied by Nazi Germany. The levels of badass that the resistance pulled off with limited resources and man power is a testament to how awesome France is and was. ~Signed, An american who is appreciative of France's contributions.

jeremy collard Don't forget world war one where they basically completely armed our clown asses and gave us menial tasks so we felt useful. And in modern times where their troops served along side us in the Gulf war and Afghanistan but also had enough courage and honestly to not get sucked into Iraq.

Reason you lads got destroyed in the Second World War was primarily the Germans shifting from trench and defensive warfare to blitzkreig which none of the allies did, luckily for us in the british Isles we had a barrier of water between us and the jerries.

I would've said "It was Beauty that killed the Beast" before I realized that it was the wrong movie.

Probably the best scene in FW aside from the finale battle.

What I wonder is, what did Toho think about the reboot 2014 version?

FanfareT.Loudest They loved it.

A S R Too bad it had to many boring people plots and too little Heisenberg and FUCKING GODZILLA in it... It could have been the best thing ever now it's just my second favorite Godzilla- And the reboot and the Original are the only Gozillas I like anyway...

FanfareT.Loudest Toho had an advanced screening and called the film fantastic. Several Godzilla actors such as Akira Takarada, who played Ogata in the original and appeared in several sequels, had a positive reaction. Haruo Nakajima, who played Godzilla, even posed with a giant sized Legendary Godzilla figure

Surprisingly, though this idea makes perfect sense from a military or story angle, has just one caveat: It would imply leading Godzilla into New Jersey, and not even this dumb version of it would go for that.

TheBoringAddress So they could've taken out New Jersey too? We could have prevented Jersey Shore and Chris Christie from becoming things? They passed up the best plan ever!

the thing about godzilla is that godzilla is supposed to wreck and destroy buildings. The 4 elements that makes this movie suck is 1. Godzilla's design sucks 2.The actors/actresses suck 3.Godzilla lays eggs and 4. she doesn't fight off another monster

HeShe had laid eggs in the city, and would head straght back to sit on them. And cluck.

Oscar Debäck Can't blame the actors for piss poor writing and story development, many of them are actually respectable actors especially Jean Reno, this movie seriously hurt their careers.

I think the joke was the look the other guy gave hin

The joke was the implied "Are you sure you are an expert for anything remotely related to what we are doing here???"

Team Virus really, you don't say

ikr

I hated it

Oh, and I'm guessing you thought transformers was a good movie too, they were both just as stupid. Oh and also, THE DAMN PRESIDENT WAS IN A FIGHTER JET!! Could anyone be more stupid than the guy who let the president fight ALIENS

its like saints row 4...MOTHER OF GOD

***** its a joke

Besides the fact that the Military/Homeland Security/ Secret Service let the (Arguably) most powerful man in the world fight in an extremely life-threatening situation.

The cartoon was decent, better than the movie no doubt, but better than the original Godzilla? No way, dude.

A S R No no no, I meant the 1998 film being its source material. This Tristar franchise will never top the original Godzilla franchise, not even close..

Christopher Spaulding AH, okay then :)

oh, the one with Godzookie??

Xarazel No...the Tristar animated series based on this film.

Fanboys be hurtin' XD Don't get me wrong, though, I can see why.

Emilia Rose Oh come on. You gotta admit: that's some serious BS. Like this thing could EVER be considered good in any way.

Kai Uhll It is. I watched the scene again, and… **sigh**

Emilia Rose Yeah. Unrelated fanboy tangent here: You know that saying in writing "Every rule in writing has an exception?" Like how "Rick and Morty" is a torture porn that is actually funny? Well, Japanese Godzilla breaks all the rules of -Continuity between sequels. Each Godzilla film is its own universe. It has no canon. Godzilla is a mutant T-Rex one movie, the next he's an ancient guardian, the next he's just there for no reason. One movie he's born on Monster Island, the next he's a space-time anomaly. *I even remember an episode calling back to other movies and getting all of the info wrong, like how they said an atomic heat ray destroyed Mothra and actually showed footage from teh movie of them using it. It had looked like it had been destroyed but it had not been. It was hilarious.* -Good writing. Godzilla films doesn't care. It's got all the plot holes, all the stereotype characters, all the complete a$$ pulls. -Good Voice acting. The voices are over the top (At least, in the dubbed versions.) They're hilarious and actually add. Matter of fact, the whole reason Godzilla is good is because of its ability to pull these traits off with flying colors. It'll always be fun to watch for me. I wish you were into Kaijuus so we could RP this sort of stuff.

How do I find you everywhere?

k

ProSyndicateIII b

I agree.

Actually they even failed at that! Kind of like the new Godzilla (2014) where toys came out before the actual movie, the same happened for this one. Toys came out before the movie and revealed what "Godzilla" was supposed to look like.

I could have pulled a more fearsome monster out of my ASS

Liquid Ocelot Well, no shit! (pun intended) Shit is horrifying. Specially if it comes in diarrhea form.

Isn't that clever advertising in itself though, knowing how shitty it looked they decided to not show it until you had bought a ticket lol

Krow's Nest Godzilla shoots beam of pure radiation, not fire.

***** Right, thank you

***** Really?

lulucool45 Yes.

***** Well, fire is more plausible.

Watch the Mortal Kombat: Annihilation video.

That man is clearly an imposter

Yes that's true and because of that the world expected them to become stronger and braver in the future but when WW2 came they surrendered easily. They fought hard in WW1 why did they chicken out in WW2? They basically humiliated themselves and half the world lost respect for them. I still respect the French but I see why people make fun of them.

Joshua Willis Well, they did sort of act like badasses afterwards, so that kinda makes up for it. I mean, when France surrendered, did their overseas colonies give up and wait for the Nazis? NO. Some guy gave them a badass speech, and they rallied together and became one of the front-line powers in the conflict. That's right - even after their humiliating surrender and occupation, the French were still kicking Nazi ass around the world.

Joshua Willis The french were cowards in WW2 because they feared a rehash of WW1, with another generation being wiped out.

jfarrar19 ...that's actually a pretty damn good reason to be a coward, in my opinion.

jfarrar19 I thought it had more to do with the British running away, and taking most of the French troops with them back to Britain

***** Mainly Godzilla, there are much worse movies, but this is diarrhea rain to the Godzilla franchise.

Still better then the 2014 Godzilla movie.

Casually Cataclysmic Nah, the 2014 movie is fairly better.

I can see how this was the 1998 American modernization of Godzilla. It was retardedly ripped off Jurassic Park with all the dinosaur hype. 2014 was a good year...

Casually Cataclysmic No.

So... Like the World Trade Center bombing?

Too soon, Patryk

JuanMunzerAsakura How ironic, considering that the later Godzilla film hardly focused much Godzilla at all. Only 7 minutes. I mean, sure Godzilla would fight different monsters, but I think him being solo would be more proper if you want newcomers to be properly introduced.

***** many more people have died through the years thanks to the US. and besides, he wasn't speaking about 9/11, he was speaking about the WTC Bombing, which happened before that, and didn't destroy the towers.

JuanMunzerAsakura What about what I said?

I agree, and it's not exactly breaking tradition to write awkward human parts as the bulk of the film. A lot of people complain about the story and the human aspect of G14, I'm like "Yeah, what's new?" Try filling 140 minutes with monster fights and have success at the box office. (Though that would be a movie I would go to see. Twice.)

Distinguished? That film was Rikki Tikki Tavi maximized! This movie actually showed Godzilla action ,that one was tease!

Levon Gevorgyan There's a little thing called "building tension." Surely you've heard of it. Besides, Godzilla was never the main focus of the film- the human's reactions were. He's there to keep the protagonist on his toes and he does it damn good. If the new movie didn't have Godzilla in it I'm entirely sure people would be hailing it as one of the best films of the year, behind Interstellar of course. But of course people are laden with expectation for something that was never really a thing in the first place.

Levon Gevorgyan "This movie actually showed Godzilla action ,that one was tease!" How Godzilla didn't appear in this one, the new one on the other hand had the biggedt Godzilla yet.

hizzaos

EnderBorn Word.

Don't forget that the 2014 movie is more faithful to the original Godzilla.

That too, of course :) well noticed.

zjovanovic10 I agree, 2014 just seemed more authentic for some reason.

zjovanovic10 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,g

zjovanovic10 f

That's probably what they said about the old one.

It was awesome.

You mean Zilla. That thing right there dying is not Godzilla. Godzilla doesn't die like a pussy.

A S R Oh my god shut the fuck up. Nobody cares.

Michael Ross he just tried to make that guy see that nobody cares...and how could he had done that if not by commenting?he said nobody as reffering to more people than himself

Michael Ross seriously? I dont care about Justin Beber (I also dont care how his name is spelled) but when people start annoying talking my ear about how much they hate him because he sucks at singing or some shit I let them know, quite loudly that I dont care. As would most people

tgsachris Can you guys calm down? A majestic, innocent creature died. Have some respect.

It's Tatopoulos.

Still doesn't excuse that horrible line, though.

I actually like the build of gojira better (if you recall its known by the cast as gojira not Godzilla) it's a lot more practical and frankly terrifying if done right, not just the nostalgia filled weak joke of how ridiculous a guy looks in a suit. Unfortunately this was not done right

+Alex Fraser No. It is not sad. Because the REAL Godzilla movies make mention and poke fun of this one. Literally. I, still, like this movie, but I don't see it as a Godzilla movie. More like....misinterpretation because of the fishing boat attacks.

I actually like the idea of this version better, it's something that COULD exist, it CAN have the "holy shit how epic" factor if done RIGHT, it's not just the weak joke of how ridiculous a guy in a suit looks, and the build of this Godzilla is a lot more practical and terrifying in my opinion. But unfortunately this is not done right

TvSonic Serbia "The New York attack WAS Godzilla, right?" "That's what the American experts claim, but our guys have doubts..."

Also Final Wars

+Carsonj13 Godzilla, Mothra, and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack. God I love that movie!

Yep.

that's why it's su*ks :p lol

Sucks is not a bad word

I take no risk with google+ :p

And Thief and the Cobbler.

Moon Man oh they did, it's one of the reasons that they made Final Wars

WHY HELLO AGAIN

And even that movie east good.

*wasnt

xeagaort Why do a lot of people dislike the new Godzilla movie I don't get it. I thought it was awesome.

Celebi734 Me too. I loved the new godzilla movie, it was amazing.

Celebi734 "LULZ ITS DUSN'T HEV TU MENY ACTUEN SCENES, SHEIT MOVIE LOOOOOL" That's what todays audience wants! The movie was trying to be like the original 1954 movie! I loved the new movie!

At least America redeemed godzilla in 2014

Charisonic558 I know I saw that too and that one was epic! I just wish he had more screen time :D

+Annie Pollack He had around the same amount of screen time as around half the Toho films. It's not a valid complaint really.

Shadow07Warrior1989 How does his screentime from this version make my complain not count? I was referring to the battle in Tokyo S.O.S when Japanese had their Godzilla actually battle the American Zilla. Which only lasted about 16-30 seconds top with Godzilla just winning in one move. It was a statement about how mad Japanese were at what America did TO Godzilla VIA this movie back then that makes it evident they did not at all like what America did to their Godzilla, I'm aware they gave him the same screentime but personally, I think I'd rather not have seen Godzilla at all in this version if he was going to appear as an old man version of Godzilla. Even the Japanese bad guy stated in the English dub "I knew he was worthless that fish eating lizard, next!" That was more of a fact from the Japanese when you get the English dub of that movie and realize, eesh yeah they hate Zilla, with a passion, even I hated it because I knew the actual story of Godzilla, the origin and it didn't make sense. But the Japanese were just as pissed.

Annie Pollack it wasn't Tokyo S.O.S it was final wars. Plus I times, the battle took 12 seconds. FUCK YOU ZILLA

Totally. And I never even knew about it until recently. Surpasses the movie by far.

Unless it is a guy in a rubber suit, it ain't a reboot.

Darth Theo Have no fear, this time Big G is BIIIIG! ^_^

God I hope there's a lot more fish in this one

Darth Theo Hey, having a guy in a suit doesn't make a movie bad, ok?

A S R I never said it did. I am saying that the Rubber suit makes it a Godzilla movie, imo.

Well AVGN mentions that even the Japanese thought this Godzilla was pretty stupid, so much so that they included this version of Godzilla into one of their movies, where it had its ass kicked in a few seconds by the real Godzilla.

that's an adorable anime icon. are you a girl?
