ATARASHII GAKKO! - Tokyo Calling

newtboy says...

You thought right.
Give me some Kaiju and I’m there.
I also like the group. Totally unexpected from an all girl Japanese group, and they’re GOOD! inventiveness and talent together are a rarity.

No, but was thinking newtboy would enjoy the Godzilla vibes of this video.

Just started watching this groups videos last night. Came for the fun, well choregraphed dancing while enjoying a few of the of the songs.

Amazing New Japanese Hanabi Fireworks

newtboy jokingly says...

You had a point?

You complained this was some attempted trickery.
I pointed to the clues given that it wasn’t real like CGI tagged and the joke about kaiju rides.

You then took issue with it being artistic.
I pointed out that quality doesn’t determine if something is art.

You then took issue with the term CGI, eventually creating some sales pitch for I don’t know what intentionally misusing the term. (Do you mean the master class page?)
I pointed you to multiple sources for the definition of computer generated image, all of which you disagreed with.

What was the point again?

Amazing New Japanese Hanabi Fireworks

newtboy says...

Hmmmm….

The tags are “cgi” and “fx”. Channels include animation.

Also, do you really think they had kaiju rides?

I thought I was pretty clear this wasn’t real.

As to the point…I thought it was pretty.

it isn't anything except a bad attempt at misleading people.

Let me count the ones I remember.
1. Godzilla
2. Mothra, giant silkworm and moth
3. Rodan, dragon
4. Gydra, the 3-headed monster
5. Gamera, the flying space turtle
6. Son of Godzilla, blows smoke rings

Nope can't think of 17 monsters.

"Batman Ninja" trailer (English language)

newtboy says...

Says you. ;-)
I've always been entertained by kaiju movies (until sci-fi channel got involved), in large part because of the terrible dialog and dubbing, but also the dead pan seriousness. When they have tried to be silly, like Godzilla Jr, it always fell flat for me.
As for kung fu, I feel that the bad dialogue adds a needed comedy element often otherwise missing. I thought Kung Pow was hilarious and inventive because of intentionally terrible dubbing.

I do agree, this bastardization has some glaring issues...that doesn't mean it can't still be fun.

jmd said:

But that is because the movie is so bad to begin with. I hate dubs with a passion because most often the voice does not match the actor like originally intended by the director. Also in the case of japan animations, voice acting is a highly competitive career market over there which means there are many top tier actors to choose from. Liscensed dubs on the other hand deal with a lot of frequently contracted actors in a market that isn't bursting with talent.

Also the plot of this animation seems pretty ridiculous. I would have let the batman and joker pass but when everyone else in the batman universe, even the god damn butler, showes up I was like

Netflix's “Godzilla: Monster Planet” Trailer

ChaosEngine jokingly says...

Also it keeps tweeting about being, like, the best kaiju ever, and how Japan will pay for it crushing Tokyo.

TheFreak said:

Fitting, since the real threat of nuclear war looms again.

I notice this time the Kaiju is bigger and threatens the whole world.

Dermatologist trades pimple popping work for video rights

00Scud00 says...

Gah! How bad could it possibly be I thought. I only made it through the initial, um, barrage before I decided I'd had enough. I thought I had popped a few juicy ones in my day, but these things are like pimple kaiju.

Pacific Rim - Official Wondercon Trailer #2

ToastyBuffoon says...

Jeepers, I dunno what kind of trailer you were expecting when it comes to a robot vs kaiju film. Physics? Really? I think this looks fun as hell and although everything Del Toro touches isn't gold, I haven't seen a film by him yet that I found to be complete and utter garbage.
