  1. The mark on her neck is a Godzilla cell. It's probably why she survived the blast. But to what end? Will she mutate? Are there other victims who similarly contracted the Godzilla cell?

    I've also heard that the tattoo on her neck is a symbol for Mothra. Perhaps Mothra will be featured in the next movie? -OG

  2. Fun fact: Godzilla has always been able to regenerate. They don't touch on it in the other one you watched, cuz there isn't really time to in the story. The older movies always TALK about his regeneration ability, but they didn't have the movie technology to properly portray it. Here, you get a front row seat to it.

  3. I've been watching and studying Godzilla films since I was 5, and honestly, none of them compared to the two you've watched. The rest are either boring, so-bad-they're-funny or kinda sorta good with some long stretches of dull. The only other ones worth watching are Shin Godzilla and maybe the 2014 Godzilla film by Gareth Edwards. Because they are very different interpretations of the Godzilla character, and they all have a different message/emotional core to the story. None of the other "Big G" movies come close to this one or the original.

  4. Average at best, in my opinion of course. Godzilla II of the Legendary Monsterverse has far better effects. This Godzilla looks terrible in some moments, it has one the dumbest stares I ever saw and the story makes no sense. Let alone seeing it in Japanese made me an headache, they effinโ€™ shout all the time. If we take into consideration the effects compared to its budget ok, good work, but not Oscar-worthy in my opinion. They simply competed with no-one that year, so they won. Thatโ€™s how I see it, only my two cents.

  5. Is it odd to be proud of someone you've never met, because I'm proud of Cassie. She has watched two subtitled films this month, both the big G. Most people refuse to watch a foreign language film. I prefer subtitles as most English dubbers do not have the emotional delivery and range as the actors have on-set during filming. It may not be the dubbers fault, as they're not on the set when the magic of film is being made. Anyway, "G Minus One" is an amazing film. AMAZING. When I told my 23 year old daughter I saw it in the theater, she rolled her eyes. I told her it was awesome in large part due to the human drama, which most kaiju movies don't have. If you removed all the G parts, you would still have a captivating drama. With G, it is a dramatic horror film, something I've never encountered before. This film addresses guilt, shame, PTSD, support systems, forgiveness, the ineffectiveness of government compared to motivated citizens, AND has a simmering love story, all set with a backdrop (and foreground) of a horror film, in a Godzilla movie! Every time I hear the music from the original "Gojira" in this film, I get tingles. And the fact that Cassie was so touched (as most of us were) at the events of the film, shows just how wonderful this film is. Lastly, the dorsal spines on Gs back that extend out before he uses his atomic blast were meant to simulate the control rods of a nuclear reactor. As the control rods are extend out, they increase the rate of fission in a reactor. Keep the "reels" rolling, Cassie ๐Ÿ˜Š

  6. so you watched two of the movies where Godzilla is at his darkest. The American Godzilla/King Kong movies will let you see him in a different light and more like the Godzilla that people love and are fans of

  7. What I love about the design on this Godzilla is how much pain it looks to be constantly in. Every time it fires it's ray, it's lays damage on Godzilla. It feels pain, which makes it get just more and more angry.

  8. This is the way Godzilla was always intended to be portrayed. Not as a goofy monster, even though I throughly enjoy those movies, but as a unstable destructive force. Im sure it was said on your Godzilla 1954 video but the OG was meant to be a analog to the Atomic Bombs that where dropped on Japan. A destructive force of immense power that once unleashed there was no possible way to stop it.

  9. I hope you continue on this Godzilla adventure, in a way so far you've seen one version of Godzilla, the destructive force of nature, after the original 1954 Godzilla was killed a new one appeared for the sequel and other movies along with the theme of Godzilla fighting other monsters, a monster would appear come on land and cause destruction then Godzilla would appear and encounter the monster fighting it off, this is where we get the Godzilla that not necessarily protects the people, but more like keeps a sort of balance by putting the other monsters in their place. Godzilla 1954, Godzilla Returns 1984, Shin Godzilla 2016, and Minus One are the only Godzilla movies that show him alone and as a destructive force, all others are basically Godzilla vs (monster name here), if you want to try getting into the Monsterverse with the American take on Godzilla (2014) I hope you'll watch just a few if the older movies as the modern ones do make references to them especially in Godzilla King of Monsters.

  10. I think the real strength of this film was how it tied the struggles of the characters to what Godzilla represents. They managed to make it a human story where Godzilla means something again thematically and is used to enhance the character journey.

    Best Godzilla film since the original one I think

  11. The movie isent really a Remake per say, if anything it actually feels like they combined the plots of The original film and it's Sequel Godzilla Raids again, with the main cast taking on Godzilla being Private Citizens similarly to raids again

  12. Godzilla has always been primarily a metaphor for nuclear weapons but also natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis Japan faces. In this movie, Godzilla's spines act like nuclear rods. A reactor looks blue due to the Cherenkov radiation

  13. IMO the greatest Godzilla film ever (I've seen pretty much all of them but it's nearly impossible since there are literally dozens w/different iterations of our monstrous lizard – some he's the villain; some he's the hero). Well-acted, amazing (and much deservedly) Oscar-winning visuals and the fact they employ the classic film's theme during the climax. The acting is top-notch and I never thought I'd cry in a Godzilla film but again you'd have to be made of stone (and I don't want to know you). I knew you'd love it ๐Ÿ˜€ If you want to see anymore there are recent ones w/King Kong (I gave up on that series w/their first connection but there is a more recent one out there). And yes I suggest next you go to the original KING KONG.

  14. I love Godzilla movies, and Minus One is my favorite, even more than 1954. The rest of the Godzilla movies are VERY different: campy, turning him into an antihero of sorts. Godzilla is destructive, but sometimes you need him when there's someone who's even more destructive. You're never filled with terror in the campy Godzilla movies because Godzilla's ire is going to be focused on the bad(der) monster and not on sympathetic humans. The other movies are fun if you simply want to see a guy in a rubber suit knock over miniature models of buildings, but they're not quite pinnacles of cinema.

  15. I always think its interesting the different POVs between American Godzilla movies, and Japanese made.

    In American versions Godzilla is the monster we unleashed with nuclear weapons, its the reaction to our creation of the bomb.

    In Japanese versions Godzilla represents the bomb, and its used to show penance for waging war.

  16. THANK YOU!!! FINALLY Someone Who Gets It! This is the only way to experience movies! Godzilla 1954 will always be number one But This is the closest to it thanks for your real experience reaction fantastic more Reviewers are to take this from you.

  17. Godzilla 1954 Does Look Real It just depends on your back then remembering it coming up and knowing what it took to bring to life the masterpiece that Set the stage for all to come you have to learn to appreciate a movie for the time story like this one that was put into it for it to be the great movie it is and the actors weโ€™re cheated of Academy Awards they should have gotten and should be ashamed for being haters and a SHAM!!!

  18. Thanks for this reaction! Minus One is really one of the best movies ever made and I think the best, that the production crew could have done. Nice work!
    I still think Shin Godzilla (the Japanese filme before Minus One) is similar interesting, even if the cinematography is not on the same level. The concept of Shin Godzilla is crazy in a good sense and the filming of the Godzilla scenes is really good in Shin Godzilla, too. I would recommend it.
    And then maybe watch the first movie of the new US-Godzilla movies. Still a great, but different depiction of Godzilla. The following movies are good and more action, but not that great on the human side.

  19. My opinion of this film goes like this toho says very nice film legendary. Then proceeds to say holdmy beer. Now I am saying this due to the fact minus one came out prior to the last g&k movie, but minus one did not come out on video right away, so that iminus one's hype would not affect g&k. Plus while legenary always produce great films when it comes to godzilla, toho comes back with a new interpretation of the big guy that says what line I opened with. Just my opinion of course.

  20. Love your reaction but you should have or go back when you have the time and watch Godzilla 1954 the way you watched Minus One Along With Jaws and others and you will see them differently with more appreciation. This Is From A Fan Of You Both.
