Godzilla

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

The HALO jump was correct when seen in context.

IMHO, they nailed the movies I remember from my childhood perfectly.

It was the exact same formula.

And they did it despite some really bad acting.

It could have been better, but this was light years ahead of that piece of abortion from 1999.

I thought they did a very good job with it. Worth the theater visit for me.
