Well it depends. I think Moonraker and TLW are solid, Godzilla is a betreyal and travesty, I've never seen The Neverending Story II or Star Trek TMP the rest falls somewhere in between.
No it fricking isn't. That one changed the tone but wasn't an illogical progression for the sequels because even in the original Godzilla wasn't just a metaphor but by his own admission Emmerich didn't want to make his movie because Godzilla, being a living being and a character in the original movies, wasn't as appealing to him as a tornado or an earthquake would. He just wants to film natural disasters so he doesn't have to care about characters or themes.
no you got it backwards, he didn't want to make the goofy godzilla, he wanted godzilla to be a more interesting and realistic character again with a more modern design
the absolute shortsightedness of showa Black folk is incomprehensible
He said it himself he didn't care about Godzilla and the movie obviously reflects that. And if he thought back in 1998 that the series was still stuck in the 70s it's on him although those movies were much better than his anyway. Some say it's a better remake of The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms but honestly Emmerich Zilla is flatter than even Rhedosaurus.
you totally misunderstood everything he said
you are the one who don't care about godzilla
godzilla fans hate real godzilla
even toho said it was exactly what godzilla would have been like if it had been made today with modern technology, that was before the """"""""fan""""""""" backlash, and japs are notoriously spineless so of course they started trashing it also after that

It was a PR nightmare right from the start. Even before the movie came out (and was trashed by the critics and fans) the design leaked and was hated so much that Devlin had to come out and lie to people that it's not real. And Toho hated it as well and only gave their greenlight after they were told that it's either that or nothing. If only this movie wasn't such a boring, soulless chore to get through.

no it was hyped from the start >(and was trashed by the critics and fans)
and we all know how much critics are worth
and as I said godzilla "fans" very intensely hate for real godzilla, they just want their clown show
it was loved by general audiences, most successful monster movie ever made by a very large margin and remained the most rented film worldwide for a decade

It has nothing to do with the actual Godzilla. Probably because it was made by people who hated the series and didn't want to make the movie. So when it came out the sequels were cancelled and Toho backed away from their ambitious plans to make Godzilla an international brand for the next 16 years.

>the sequels were cancelled
naw, there was more than enough financial incentive to make a sequel and it was in development for a while, it was only the "fan" attack on the studio which got it shut down
the sequel had an even more kino story than the first one and showa Black folk have yet again robbed the world of a great and important work of art

Details? The only thing I know from the scrapped sequel was the Godzilla design was supposed to be more faithful to the original.

No, that was the cancelled version written by Terry Rossio with effects by Stan Winston's studio and directed by Jan de Bont. Tristar rejected that concept for budget reasons so they picked Emmerich's version that was cheaper even though he didn't even want to make it and the movie ended up costing as much as the Rossio version anyway. The sequel was cancelled because of negative reception and box office results compared to the aggressive marketing campaign. The sequel to the Emmerich version would've been more like a real Godzilla movie with a new Godzilla (before the Emmerich design was disinherited and renamed Zilla) against a monster called Queen b***h.
Could never sit through Dune
Don't care for Never Ending Story in general
Haven't seen Star Trek TMP
Barely remember Moonraker, all the pre-Brosnan Bonds kinda mush together, for me.
It's a very beautiful movie and despite what everyone says, it's actually very faithful to the theme of the book (which is reversed satanism, subversion of "do what thou willst" from a hedonistic anarchistic command to a highly spiritual responsibility of your soul), unlike the first film which took the command at face value to make a hedonistic escape fantasy film
it gets a bit silly sometimes but nothing really immersion breaking
not a single bad film on that list, good post anon
Look again, right in the middle of the image.
rewatched it tonight, not as bad as i remember. jar jar scenes were 10/10 and pure moron kino. cool sets and lightsaber fights as well.
shit taste, you have to be over 30 to post on this board
log off zoomer, you're trying too hard everyone can see thru your tactics
you probably watched the edited one with the mangled pod race and dead eyed cgi yoda
nah had it on DVD with the puppet
>dude i'm le 30 and actually oldgay
no way zoomers actually think this shit works
DVD is still edited
only vhs and LD are theatrical
homie ur tweaking
DVD is not 100% theatrical but has the Yoda puppet
also
>not watching the uhd 35mm scan
ngmi
so defensive, what a baby
only baby here is you zoomie, you shit in your diaper while typing that post?
Your post is pure moron kino.
TPM is the best prequel movie tho
>prequel movie
>best
you're stupid, the prequel movies are pieces of crap
TPM is a fun space adventure film just like star wars is supposed to be, there's a few plotholes but nothing that spoils the experience
the other two are unsalvageable and boring
literally a bigger waste of time than the sequels
muh prequels
If you can tolerate C-3PO & the Ewoks, you can tolerate Jar Jar.
Well it depends. I think Moonraker and TLW are solid, Godzilla is a betreyal and travesty, I've never seen The Neverending Story II or Star Trek TMP the rest falls somewhere in between.
>Godzilla is a betreyal and travesty
it's way more faithful to the original than the cheesy showa crap

There aren't 3 good movies on there

Imagine being such a colossal homosexual

Could never sit through Dune
