King of the Kaiju!

Took the eldest munchkin to go see "Godzilla" this morning.  That. Was. Awesome!  After the tragedy/fiasco/scandal that was the flaming piece of crap from 1998 known by the same title, the 2014 version reassured me at least, that the US has apologized for shitting on Toho's iconic character and has indeed, put the "God" back in Godzilla.

There was a Pacific Rim vibe feel to the movie, as evidenced by the fact that both Pacific Rim and Godzilla were made by the same studio, but in no way does Godzilla feel any attachment to it.  These are two completely different movies that approach the exact same concept, giant monsters are fucking cool!  Where as Pacific Rim went with using huge mecha to battle them, Godzilla went with "the arrogance of man to think he can control nature".  They both work for me, they are both awesome in their own rights, and they both are deserving of a sequel of some sorts.  Hell, if they wanted to do a crossover(in Hollywood, anything is possible) that would be fine with me to, so long as they let the people who handled these two movies do it.  Would it be a cinematic masterpiece, hell no, but it would be hella fun and that's what going to the movies is all about.  Sitting back, muching popcorn, and having some fun
