Biggest mistake of your life (Don't watch the Godzill anime movies on Netflix)

[greengr]

I regretfully watched the first 40 minutes of the Godzilla Anime movie on Netflix,supposedly there are 2 more movies of that shit which i cant fathom how a human being should watch these and yes i am a Godzilla fan and yes i have had personal tragedies but jfc if even one person avoid that shit i feel i am helping humanity.

Spoiler

i may or may not be sarcastic but yes that shit was really that bad,pls dont ban me

 

[B-Dubs]

All three of those movies are very nihilist. Just a pure soul sucking experience all around. Nothing good ever happens ever, even at the very end of the last one. All bad times forever and ever.

 

[Liam Allen-Miller]

My bud's a huge Godzilla fan and he keeps telling me I should skip these. It's a shame because the designs and key art seem so cool.

 

[TeenageFBI]

Now I'm curious. Spoilers pls.

Imagine the nihilistic take on the Godzilla mythos you can.

Got it in your head?

This is even more nihilistic.

 

[Kinthey]

I watched all of them

They're not great, but I liked some of the stuff. Honestly feels almost like a Knights of Sidonia spin-off, with the same studio animating and lots of the tech looking similar

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Oh yeah I watched the first one and it was crushingly dull

 

[Noppie]

I liked them. Big monster doing stuff is fun.

Spoiler

Also best Ghidorah, fight me.

 

[br0ken_shad0w]

It's Reign of Fire with Godzilla but not as fun.

Luckily the superior Godzilla anime just dropped on Netflix.

 

[MarvelousIntent]

Oh, god. I hate those Netflix movies so much. I wish I could erase every second of that turd trilogy from my memory.

I mean, the design and entrance are kinda neat. But other than that...

Considering Gen Urobuchi wrote them this isn't surprising.

 

[Deleted member 1839]

Watch Singular Point instead.

 

[Pandaman]

boot up the planet eater, skip to the part where Ghidorah first appears, then watch until they figure him out. That's about all there is worth watching.

 

[KtotheRoc]

I've read Narutaru. I can't imagine anything being more nihilistic than that.

 

[guill]

Do yourself a favor, dont watch that shit.

Go see Godzilla singular point, its amazing

Like… Devilman Crybaby, nihilism?

 

[Small Red Boy]

You are only making me want to watch them

 

[Sirhc]

Not the greatest Godzilla media at all, has a few interesting ideas but never really delivers.

 

[Deleted member 12352]

I enjoyed them but can definitely see why most would probably hate them.

Just finished watching the Godzilla Singular Point series on Netflix in fact and would say the exact same about that, but for different reasons.

 

[mbpm]

Nihilism is pretty open ended. What makes them so bad

 

[sfedai0]

OP, you fool. Now the Streisand effect is in play and Netflix will think from their data that this show is popular and greenlight more.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Watch Singular Point instead.

 

[Masterspeed]

I liked them… I liked the idea and concept around King Gidora in it a lot. I also liked the concept of mecha Godzilla being a city.

To be fair, I'll consume all and any Godzilla content.

 

[Gunny T Highway]

It had some cool moments, but overall the trilogy was very depressing and just not that great.

 

[Deleted member 18179]

It's a normal website with normal people and normal reactions. Very normal

 

[zoku88]

I liked the second movie. The other two were kind of boring, though.

Spoiler

I, in general, like stories when 'heroes' turn on eachother

 

[Motorcycle Dork]

The netflix triology is absolutely atrocious. Please don't bother watching them, it doesn't do Godzilla justice

all this nihilism talk makes me want to watch them too lol

They are super boring. And why are there aliens in it?

I liked the first one a fair amount but heard the others were bad.

Definitely watch Godzilla SP, just started and I love it so far.

 

[Aexact]

For a Godzilla movie, the humans are either attacking Godzilla like a very slow moving turret or the promise of fighting giant monsters is subverted in some way. Subverting expectations. Meh.

I never had any interest in these but this post is sparking something in me.

 

[Castor]

Got my better half into Godzilla with those movies. But yeah for as many "cool" things that are in them it is painfully dull

 

[amon37]

Whatever, I thought they were good enough, I'm no Godzilla snob. 🤷 Ya'all take shit way too seriously

 

[Akainu]

Are these the ones when they leave earth and return later for it to be overrun with metal monsters?

 

[Jedi2016]

I thought they were okay.

 

[Shigs]

I'm a massive Godzilla fan. I got through the first movie, about halfway through the second, and had to stop. they are SOOOOO boring!! I couldn't take it. Depressing and dull.

 

[Star-Lord]

I dug the first but the other two are boring as shittttt

 

[Zombine]

It's really not that serious lol. They're fine. They're pretty decent Godzilla media.

Trust me, it shouldn't. I watched them all and feel like I wasted all of that time. Totally down the drain.

 

[Chrono]

The only thing I remember is

Spoiler

the main character basically leaving his pregnant wife behind (not even telling her directly, but her sister instead) to commit suicide, for "reasons"? I don't know, something about blahblah "has to end with me" blahblah.

I had a fun enough time with it, but I don't particularly like the ending. It's hard for me to recommend because of it.

 

[fundogmo]

Urobuchi dropping a much harder scifi than anyone asked for. Felt like a genuinely fresh and new take on what it means to have these incredible beasts of cosmic scale. Probably the best interpretation of Ghidorah in anything.

But yes, they're a sloooooow burn and no monster punches another monster. Incredibly hard to recommend.

 

[Elfgore]

I just finished watching every Godzilla movie.... I did not include these on the list because of their reputation.

Are they even good for a laugh with friends?

 

[Dynedom]

I mean, if you like depressing shit, go ahead and watch it.

 

[Fafalada]

Slow is an understatement. It literally takes 3 movies to get any sign of character development. In a character driven story...
Ideas introduced are interesting, but it just doesn't go anywhere with almost any of it.

 

[koshiro]

Honestly feels almost like a Knights of Sidonia spin-off

They're never going to finish this, are they? Such great battle sequences in that show, really built up the tension and had good payoff.

They're actually about to release a movie in Japan that's meant to serve as season 3

Knights of Sidonia 'Season 3' is a movie: Knights of Sidonia: Love Woven in the Stars release date in June 2021

The Knights of Sidonia movie release date is coming up soon. Manga creator Tsutomu Nihei says the manga's ending will be changed.

It seems unclear so far if it will come to Netflix but I hope so.

 

[SeroTyler]

Gotta check this out based on all the nihilism talk lmao

 

[VariantX]

I watched the first in full, the second about 2/3rds the way through and I tapped out. I felt bad that I just wanted Godzilla to just mercy kill the rest of the refugees already because of how it feels like all their reward for surviving in the first place is just to feel more pain and loss.
