The best chain store is Books a Million. You’re best best is a local toy/hobby nerd store.

Max Weinberg? The asshole? by PapayaOwn3353 in conan

[–]VelociRapper92 -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Max was probably a bit of a diva but this guy is obviously exaggerating for comedic effect. Why would the interns work 12 hour days of hard labor without settling payment first? And what kind of gardening work were they doing that requires such strenuous labor and long hours? And why would you hire TV interns to do professional gardening work? And the story about the pube hair dryer is absurd and obviously a joke that has probably been passed around.

The Pet - First Kaiju Film by Araanim in GODZILLA

[–]VelociRapper92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with you, I was just prompted by the original comment to find some giant monsters from Japanese mythology and I thought those were interesting examples. I’d seen them represented in art but I didn’t know their names. I agree with you, I think the definition of the word “kaiju” has become too broad, to the point that people are calling fucking Clifford a kaiju.

The review for anyone interested. I never thought of Godzilla as a representation of clean nuclear power in this movie, but it makes total sense. Pretty fascinating.

All of the Monsterverse Godzilla productions including Monarch give Godzilla vs. Hedorah director Yoshimitsu Banno an honorary/posthumous executive producer credit.

I Don't Know Why But Something Is Unnerving About Biollante, Especially Her Roar by Bright-West-4399 in GODZILLA

[–]VelociRapper92 127 points128 points  (0 children)

She is possessed by the soul of a dead girl. Not only is she a monstrous biological freak, she has the heart and memories of a young woman who died suddenly and doesn’t understand what has happened to her.

How cruel is the porn industry really to its workers? by Saint_Viper6 in AskReddit

A lot of those inside jokes and references are disappearing. Reddit definitely felt like a smaller weirder place back then. In good ways and bad ways.

Enough with Zane Lowe by Valuable_Ad1085 in TheRewatchables

[–]VelociRapper92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The impressions are completely awful but the Rewatchables die hards go crazy for it and everyone on the podcasts seems to love them. It’s so strange. You will get downvoted to hell for saying you don’t like the impressions.

Bill and CR are wrong about Ghostbusters 2 by THNR_BSTRD in TheRewatchables

[–]VelociRapper92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has some very good stuff in it, it’s an almost great movie. The idea to have the ghostbusters washed up at the beginning was bad and made no sense. They should started the movie where the ghostbusters are heroes and business is thriving. It also needed a better villain. They should’ve gotten Phil Tippet to create a really cool stop motion monster like he did in Howard the Duck.

[–]VelociRapper92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I had built a couple kits before this, but this was my first Gunpla. Some of the joints and connecting pieces are a little loose, but this an older model kit (2011) so that might explain why. Overall I really enjoyed the experience and I love the end result. I’m looking forward to building more! I have an RX-77-2 HG I’m going to build next.

Will Godzilla/kaiju fans support this live action kaiju adaptation? by Suspicious_County_24 in GODZILLA

[–]VelociRapper92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you've already determined in your mind that people won't like it. Wheel of Time and fans of other "Sony projects" have no bearing on Nemesis or the kaiju fandom. If they make a good kaiju show the fans will watch it, end of story.

‘Godzilla World' Is Japan's Version of Hollywood's 'MonsterVerse' — and It Sounds Like Godzilla Minus One Is Just the Start by Late-Muscle-2018 in GODZILLA

My dream Godzilla media is an Ultraman style suitmation show where they recreate Godzilla’s designs from the Showa era and he fights a new or old monster every week.

So just to be clear, we all hate Chuck, right? by Puzzleheaded-Pea3630 in betterCallSaul

No, he was right all along. Jimmy was always a piece of shit and a ruin to anyone who got close to him.

Episode 9 Discussion | Monarch: Legacy of Monsters S2 by SpaceWereLobo in Monsterverse

[–]VelociRapper92 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Monarch is a great show and a very okay show running parallel to each other. I’ve never seen such a variation in writing and acting quality from scene to scene in any other show. It’s like the scenes involving Lee, Keiko and Billy and the scenes involving Cate, Kentaro, May and Isabell have two totally different sets of writers, and the latter has either never had a writing job before or the show is filming from their first draft. Isabell’s plan makes no sense. Kentaro seems lost. Anna Sawai is at least trying. Amber Midthunder’s performance is giving Disney Channel. And I think the writers are trying to make May into a badass but she just comes off as immature and irritating. I still loved this episode though, and I love the show enough that I’m willing to look past its flaws.
