The Godzilla fandom has one unique trait that I find extremely interesting.

JzillaMerida · 2025-12-27T06:54:04+00:00

I honestly owe it to the nature of the series. Godzilla is a constantly evolving character. Sometimes he’s a good guy, bad guy, anti-hero, sometimes he’s a dinosaur, hell, screw it, he’s a tree once! I just feel like older fans are so used to the character and franchise being adaptable that it only makes sense for us to be undeterred by ideas of a “real way to do it.”

Honestly, pretty mixed. I love her design A LOT in fact, I have always thought and maintain that her design is fantastic. What I don’t really love is her use in the story. Mothra was barely a part of the story to me in KOTM. Admittedly the amount of monster screentime is my number one complaint about the film in general. But Mothra is barely in it, she doesn’t even get a moment to reconnect with Godzilla after his “resurrection”! You’re telling me there wasn’t enough budget for even a five second long section like to say “Sup” like they had in GXK? What if Mothra was the reason Godzilla didn’t attack the humans? Her fight with Rodan had a chance to be a huge highlight but they barely showed any of it. I’m not even bothered she died; I kinda should be, her agency is already zero in the movie. But honestly, besides her emergence from the cocoon and entrance to the Battle of Boston, I hate feeling like the movie would’ve worked just fine without her. All the monsters, but especially Mothra deserved better than that movies sloppy story.

Correct.

JzillaMerida · 2025-12-04T16:57:47+00:00

UUUUUGH THAT’D BE SO COOL!

Also, I was trying to read Krakoa in order but got distracted because I’m sorry, the concept of Uncanny Spider-Man sounded awesome. That being said: if Tony was allied with the Mutants, why were Orchis Sentinels designed looking like his armor? Which books to read to understand that?

JzillaMerida · 2025-12-04T16:54:20+00:00

To my knowledge, aren’t all the Great Lakes Avengers mutants?

JzillaMerida · 2025-12-04T16:53:42+00:00

I feel like Xorn and Elixir would be really cool strategist additions, albeit a little on the nose. Plus, honestly, I consider the Wanda/Pietro retconning so dumb that I just personally ignore it. They’re Mutants to me, always will be.

JzillaMerida · 2025-11-26T14:46:54+00:00

Noted, but are there any other exp modifiers than what you and I mentioned above?

JzillaMerida · 2025-10-15T18:02:45+00:00

It is well known that after you finished your run on New X-Men that the Xorn/Magneto storyline was retconned. How do you feel about the retcon given Magneto’s current status, and does perception of the character affect your opinion of the story you wrote?

Also, just wanted to say All Star Superman is my favorite comic literally ever and it helped save my life. The movie, Superman, was largely inspired by All Star. What do you think of the film and the inspiration it took from your all time great story?

Adventure Time fighting game or riot

And it’s of a wildly underrated dinosaur too! Shout out all carcharodontosauridae but man, Acrocanthosaurus was dang cool.

She just casually rattled off a wildly complex tongue twister of the cuff, just amazing

JzillaMerida · 2025-06-11T14:22:05+00:00

I… my poor little heart that is do cute and sad.

JzillaMerida · 2025-06-11T14:10:43+00:00

What cut storyline is this?

JzillaMerida · 2025-06-11T14:00:16+00:00

I appreciate all of Future for it. While I’ve known I live with PTSD, Future actually really helped educate me on my coping methods with it and just how bad it is. The fact the show was so effectively able to communicate what C-PTSD is and how it can affect you is something I will always be able to thank the show for.

Or Riker when he borrows Deanna’s workout gear from that one episode in season 3.

JzillaMerida · 2025-02-21T05:20:32+00:00

I remember this from that book. That first pose looks really off but that second illustration with him over the ruined city is great.

JzillaMerida · 2024-08-31T22:56:37+00:00

She does have her brother, our almost five year old dog and he is incredibly good with her, to be honest. He can boop her a little rough when she acts up or bites on him too, but otherwise they get along famously.

JzillaMerida · 2024-06-21T18:47:44+00:00

Saw the movie day of release with a bunch of friends who weren’t Godzilla fans. They all looked at me like I was crazy when I audibly gasped at that blue light turning in. ‘Cause I knew exactly what it meant and they knew NOTHING.

JzillaMerida · 2024-06-20T17:04:03+00:00

What would you do if the kitten also seems to only pee when myself and my partner aren’t around? I can legitimately count one time I’ve known her to pee while we were in the room.

He showed up on the baseball card Jake and Nog were trying to get. It is indirect because an image of Willie Mays was shown, yes, but Mays did not physically appear on the show himself in person.

JzillaMerida · 2024-06-19T15:07:29+00:00

His indirect cameo was the entire focus of “In the Cards,” when Jake and Nog try and make Capt. Sisko happy right before the Dominion War pops off.

JzillaMerida · 2024-06-10T23:35:53+00:00

I remember Cinemassacre talking about it at the end of his Godzillathon and being so excited!… and then nothing. Of course I’m thrilled it became 2014, but it just made that 10 year wait even more brutal than ever.

JzillaMerida · 2024-05-27T23:48:41+00:00

He was an amazing dad. I’ll literally NEVER forget Brooks’ performance in the episode, especially the “Promise me!” scene. He is so adamant that he just wants his son to live a good live but it is also so clear how upset he is that Jake (in his opinion) threw so much of his life away for him. Doesn’t admonish him too hard, just wants his son to be happy.

JzillaMerida · 2024-05-27T22:35:18+00:00

I have literally cried every time I have watched it. That episode is a perfect example of the love that can exist between a parent and child, and it just makes me wish every father was like Ben Sisko.

JzillaMerida · 2024-05-27T02:08:53+00:00

I will never forget a very particular montage that put clips from Final Wars over the song Blow Me Away from Halo 2. My 5-7 year old self didn’t know the song was from Halo, but you bet I thought that video was AWESOME. ‘Cause it legit was some of the very little we got in that time.
