Ugh. I really..."NO TRUE G-FAN."
I DON'T CARE THAT YOU FIRST SAW GODZILLA AS A ONE-YEAR OLD, YOU DON'T REMEMBER! GET OUT OF G-FEST! YOUR FAN CARD IS REVOKED.
ALSO, I love J.D.'s notion that directors sit down and make the dvds for their films.

I had a long, eloquent post about why JD Lees is a butt for everything said in that piece except for his opinion that the new movie isn't so good, and why someone in his position shouldn't be stating bald-faced LIES like "Gareth Edwards canceled the cameo at the last minute with no notice and did it unceremoniously, so unceremoniously it's as if he misled the entire audience *ignores the various official statements from Legendary, Edwards, and Takarada* " and "Monsters was a huge flop" and "Gareth Edwards made the DVD and spit in your face while doing it"

But it was on Facebook and I think the thread got deleted, so I'll just re-iterate that JD Lees is a butt.

Also I just realized he stated "The story is implausible" as a negative of the film.
...says the HUGE GODZILLA MOVIE FAN.

Personally, while seeing Takarada would have been nice, the excision of the scene was nothing I found to get upset over. For me, after several re-views of the film, I have done a complete 360 and have come to the opinion that the film has much bigger issues. My final assessment of the movie is that it does indeed contain some iconic FX images, but little else. One would have thought that with the time spent, and the various writers used, that the story would have been much tighter and involving and not contain so many lapses of logic. Oh well, it is what it is, hopefully the sequel(if there is one)will prove more involving...Also, getting back to the whole non-issue(for me)of Takarada's unused scene, and any disappointment experienced by Mr. Takarada, the above picture has no relevance, as there is no way of knowing when it was taken.

What exactly happened with Lees and GMK/Kaneko again? I'm aware of the incident/issues but the details fuzzy to me these days.

Something about JD insulting a female friend of Kaneko's I think. That's about all of the info I've ever gotten on the subject, I'd like more clarity as well.

This old thread is a good read: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=4280

The second page won't load, for me at least. I think the upgraded board has trouble displaying thread pages that begin with posts by users whose accounts have since been deleted.

JD-what a schmuck.

Anyways, anyone know what Kaneko though of Godzilla 2014? Gonna go out on a limb and say I suspect he didn't like it. Not a knock on him, just doesn't seem to be a version of Godzilla I think he'd respond well towards.

[kiryugoji04]

I dunno, I could see him being okay with it at least.
