Before seeing Godzilla Minus One: So excited to see a new Godzilla movie!!
After: I have stared into the eyes of God and they were blinded with fury, and yet we persevere.

Minus One managing to net an Oscar is such a cool win. Yeah yeah awards are a popularity contest but the film earned Visual Effects 110%.
Cgi somewhat (in style) emulating practical visuals and movement, and *not* coming off as uncanny is the perfect threading of a needle visually for the film. And then the actual full on effects were nuts too, ofc.
Should have been in best picture running tbh but the world isn't ready for the big lizard yet.

Tumblr is the only platform I can think of where I could make an offhand rambling post on the toilet about my thoughts on a Godzilla movie and have an author I really admire share it within like 3 hours

Asks are back open. I’ve got a lot to do tomorrow, but I’ll probably start Gojiposting in earnest Saturday and Sunday. If you’re waiting to see it, blacklist #kotm spoilers if you haven’t already.

Jiger might be one of my favorite Kaiju in the Gamera franchise so far btw. Like, I actually quite enjoy all of them, they're very zany and unique, but Jiger in particular is interesting to me.
Tumblr media
She's hard to describe, design-wise, but to me she's very much a foil to Gamera in a way most of his enemies aren't. She's a large, prehistoric reptile, has a heat based long range attack (her "magnetum beam" to Gamera's fire breath), and while Gamera propels himself with flaming jets, Jiger sprays saltwater jets to achieve a similar effect.
Tumblr media
She also has a pretty fun ability to fire parts of her little nose spikes like rockets, which are described as "solid salvia." Delightfully icky.
Tumblr media
And to top it off, that spike on her tail isn't just for show! It's an ovipositor, a small needle like appendage present in some creatures (like parasitoid wasps, for example) which she uses to inject Gamera with her offspring. That's right, she's a mother, and Gamera is the unwitting baby daddy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In an homage to 1966's Fantastic Voyage, two boys on a mini sub travel inside Gamera to remove the parasitic Jiger larva, and it's... Kind of adorable? It's a similar size to the small children and sprays a web-like substance from its nose, having not developed the solid saliva rockets yet, I suppose. Maybe it's just because I'm a big nerd and get excited over fun biology, but a silk-producing, parasitoid lizard is just too much fun for me to NOT be weird about. Has Bogleech talked about this one? This feels like it should have a Bogleech article if it doesn't already.
And I haven't even touched the wild magnetic suckers!

My extremely oversimplified theory of Kaiju is that they can all be categorized into one of four categories: Lizard, Monkey, Robot and Minor Eldritch Horror (Meh, for short)
Examples:

Of course Hayata is the only one in uniform, that's so like him. I bet he fucking sleeps in it.

I don't think Ultraseven is TRYING to be funny, but it's at least failing at being serious

I finally got to experience this in context. It still doesn't make sense but I have the context now.

There aren't words in any language I speak that can properly convey how fucking baffling this scene is
