Those were dark times they'll never understand.

Geeks? On a science and science fiction blog? GOOD JOB, WORLD'S GREATEST DETECTIVE

Why not android :( the fact that developers still think it could be worthwhile to put a pay-to-play, no in-app bullshit game on a mobile platform really gives me hope, i'd pay a lot more than they ask if it's a decent game... and if it were on android :))

The armed forces got their asses handed to them over and over again because they apparently never heard of a faraday cage in that universe, and all their plans failed, and Godzilla had to save the day. How is that a "US Armed Forced glory movie?"

Why are we suddenly talking about Pacific Rim's story like it was actually good? If anything its human characters were even more generic and uninteresting than what Godzilla offered. At least in the new Godzilla, the human characters actually behave like real people instead of live-action anime caricature.

one word. GODZILLA

I wouldn't say Pacific Rim "fizzled" at the box office. The North American one maybe, but at $412 Million, it's just shy of ST: Into Darkness, which was widely considered a Blockbuster success.

Why Pacific Rim failed while Godzilla succeeded? Easy - marketing. Pacific Rim's marketing was, by and large, pretty shit. Compare that to that creepy 2001 score under the HALO jump from the teaser? Fucking brilliant. Uniformly Godzilla's marketing was unified and had a strong idea of what it was trying to sell.…

It helps that not only was it a marketable name but it was made by a director who "gets" Godzilla and then preceded to make the High Budget bad ass Godzilla movie everyone has always wanted to see...

If Gojira is made of protein, the square-cube law dooms this whole exercise. Sorry. It's comic book physics and biology. It may as well be magic. Just turn your brain off, eat your popcorn and enjoy the awesome! (And I say this as an unassailably pointy headed hard SF nerd.)

No other speedster is as cool as the The Flash. Somehow, he got a monopoly on that power.

Not particularly a huge fan of either character and I'm a staunch member of the MMMS, but Green Arrow is the only one of the two to have his own successful book not to mention a terrific TV series. I give the Golden Arrow to the Green Arrow, unless that's a euphemism.

I didn't see Godzilla as heroic. I took it as he does his thing because he is Godzilla. If someone in his way get stomped; so be it. If he inadvertantly saves someone; so be it.

I dunno, they seemed to go to great pains to show that he's a force of nature.

YES! When Godzilla blocked those missiles from hitting the Golden Gate Bridge, the audience I was with applauded. There was so much heroic Godzilla in this.

Still gonna say it. Pacific Rim x Godzilla. Set it 20 years in the future and have the Jeagers be built to combat Godzilla and any other kaiju that show up. have the obligatory Godzilla and Jeager battle, then have them team up and take on an army of other kaiju.

Have Mathew Brodrick piolt a mech.

Disappointed...
