    In defense of Godzilla, who seems to be standing in the deep ocean, Godzilla has neutral buoyancy like fish he can control his buoyancy like a diver wearing a dive vest the diver can control his buoyancy by how little or how much air Is in his dive vest which he controls. However, he cannot control the gases in his system and bloodstream, and if he goes really deep gases in his body are compressed and when he rises too quickly to the surface gases expand and rupture organs and give embolisms, which, depending on the depth can kill if one rises too quickly to the surface without decompression. This is what they plan to do with Godzilla.

    • @1massboy
      @1massboy 4 дня назад +1

      Look, we can add whatever we want to make Godzilla float.
      But let’s face it. This movie is about a giant murder lizard. Which is basically a stand for the atomic bomb and pretty much every natural disaster. He is a force of nature.
      So people need to be able to give a pass to artistic choices like that.

    • @wildone008
      @wildone008 4 дня назад +1

      Godzilla is also a sea creature. His tail is twice as long as he is. His tail is also very powerful. So I can see it helping with his buoyancy.

    Betcha you didn't think you'd be crying during a Godzilla movie. I know I didn't. Koichi's trauma and guilt is heartbreaking, bit it's Tachibana installing the ejection seat and telling Koichi to live that gets me every time. Such great characters all around.
    He's not standing in the water, he's displacing it.
    The plane is based on a real prototype, the Kyushu J7W Shinden. It was developed to defend the Japan homeland, but it's only test flight was right before the US dropped the atomic bombs, so it never saw service. There were two built, with the surviving one in the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. The movie prop was so accurate they put it on display and only revealed it as a prop after the movie came out.
    The ships depicted were also real, and the four used for the final mission had been decommissioned as part of the disarmament agreement when Japan surrendered. That means they would have been stripped of all weapons and ordnance, making them considerably lighter.
    The movie actually cost the equivalent of $10 million US. The visual effects team was 35 people, supervised by the director Takashi Yamazaki instead of having a go-between. It won an Oscar for visual effects, and many other awards from different organizations, including the Japanese Best Picture Award.

    After World War 2 Japan was basically bombed back to the Stone age. They were set back to zero. When Godzilla showed up only a few years later they were still rebuilding , they basically had nothing left to fight him with ( they were demilitarized ) hence minus one.

    fish look weird because they got 'the bends'==they came up from very deep water too fast (running from Goji? Caught in his 'slipstream' as he travels to the surface? Who knows) and the change in pressure makes their organs and cells 'inflate'; have gone deep sea fishing, I have seen bottom fish have their eyes bulge out and their stomachs and swim bladders protrude out of their mouths, after they got quickly reeled up from the deep--150 to 350 feet.

    To clarify many things for You:
    Godzilla was sent to Earth to protect it from other Kaijus (very big threat monsters)
    She was relatively small, like a T-Rex. But after some of the nuclear undersea tests, She mutated. Became bigger and bigger.
    She is radioactive, this ability can heal her. But it is a curse too. Thats why She is that angry about humans.
    After every seizmic shots She is badly hurt, have to regenerate. Those shots are representing Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
    Black rain is mixed radioactive material and dust. Which infected Noriko and saved Her too. But also poisoned Her veins.
    The main thing -1 represents Japan after it was destroyed to ground zero in war. Then came Gojira and made it even worse (-1.0)

    Noriko's neck bore 'G-cells' according to the writer/director. As for the idea that Godzilla being alive at the end means there's going to be a sequel, I don't believe that's the case. After 'Shin Godzilla' Toho studios established what they call the 'Godzilla Room' which established guidelines for Godzilla movies. One of their rules is that Godzilla can never be permanently killed, so the filmmakers would have no choice than to tag on a scene that implies he didn't really die.

    What makes Godzilla unique is he can be a good guy or bad guy depending on the story or the interpretation. Minus One is a remake of the original 1954 film where he was a tragic villain who attacked because human’s atomic testings mutated/traumatized him to now be in constant pain/anger. After that however, he became more of an anti-hero fighting evil monsters who threaten his home, Earth. The current Hollywood films highlight the anti-hero portrayal of the character which be great if you check them out. ^^

      ​​​@@popculturallychallengedwhen watching or rewatching some of the monsterverse movies as far as the human characters go few are interesting and some are flat out boring or terribly written at to which point its kinda the point of those movies, the monsterverse human characters are just there for size and suspense but truly for the universe itself everyone is there for the kaiju action.
      Plus the Monsterverse is paying homage to the 60s silly showa era of godzilla while the monsterverse started off grounded and realistic to goofy and silly fun, compared to gojira 1954 to turning godzilla a silly hero in the 60s.

    Noriko might have been infected with G-cells (black mark on her neck) and survived the blast because of its regenerative power.
    Godzilla Minus One (2023) won 8 Japanese Academy Awards (including Best Picture) and 1 US Academy Award (for Best Visual Effects).
    Suggestion. Watch Shin Godzilla (2016). The movie highlighted the (government’s) bureaucratic failures in dealing with the triple disasters (earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear reactor meltdown) in 2011.
    Shin Godzilla (2016) won 7 Japanese Academy Awards (including Best Picture and Best Director).

    "What is that a dinosaur?"
    Well Toni you're actually kind of onto something there. They purposefully made Godzilla more dinosaur like in this one. As well as scaling him down to 50m tall unlike the American ones which make him over 100m tall because.... Murica. I personally like both designs though.
    Sincerely,
    A humble Australian fan.

    Minus one is because it started before the "Original" Godzilla monster showed up. The major "Twist" of Godzilla is that he takes all of this damage and still lives. The radiation altered his DNA so he regenerates automatically. Noriko sent the telegram after she recovered enough. The black mark "Tatto" is from Godzilla cells that attached to her. There is a possibility that a second movie may? be made.
    I'm sad that you never became a Godzilla fan. I would watch Godzilla 1985, Godzilla against MechaGodzilla, / G SOS Tokyo. Best one is Destroy All Monsters, it has all of the Japanese Kaiju.

    People keep saying. Why are they looking, keep running. Some people did keep running. Some were going in other directions. After all, the people in the city had never seen Godzilla before. Thats why when she was on the train she said, "Is that Godzilla?".They just had heard of him until then. But if this was real there would be some who would want to stop and look. Especially if it was something you had never seen before. In todays world with cell phones. You best believe there would be people trying to video it.

    Going down and up in the ocean should take a lot of time because of the pressure difference and I think when Godzilla didn't came up to the surface maybe he wanted to "buy time" to get used to it.

  • @tanvu2728
    @tanvu2728 6 дней назад

    I hear this every Minus One reaction:
    "What is that?" "Is that a fish?" "Why does fishes look so weird?"
    XD, lol. The movie technically explained it, but folks aren't aware... But it said Godzilla usually goes into the "Deep Sea" part of the ocean, and down there is below even where Whales usually lives, its pitch dark and usually you get Angler fishes and those fishes you saw in the movie. (they look like long snake/eel body but they have a big bloated mouth like a Pelican.
    usually, godzilla movies only show regular fishes closer to the surface, but ideally, it should be fishes from the deeper part of the ocean.

    A lot of people talk about how can Godzilla just stand there in the water but for something to float it just needs to have less density than water, there are 30-40 ton whales and they float, there are also animals like hippos weighting 15-18 tons (half of the weight of whales) yet hippos can't float.

I don't know what brand of motorbike this is, but I know that in one of Yamaha's products, there is a 90's era motorbike like this, the Yamaha RX-King.

    Donald Sutherland just passed away today. He is the father of Kieffer Sutherland. Maybe watch one of his films in his honor. Here are some of his best (ranked). Most of these have stacked casts:
    "Kelly's Heroes" (1970)
    "The Dirty Dozen" (1967)
    "Backdraft" (1991) directed by Ron Howard. Music by Hans Zimmer
    "The Italian Job" (2003 remake)
    "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" (1992 original movie)
    "Space Cowboys" (2000) directed by Clint Eastwood
    "The Eagle Has Landed" (1976)
    "Hollowpoint" (1996)
    "Outbreak" (1995)
    "Start the Revolution Without Me" (1970)
