perfect example of cultural differences u.s./nippon


but the funniest parts were at the beginning with the window breaking. also the absurdity of the "live action" at the end which is basically the crap that alot of kids watched throughout the 90's and 00's in the u.s.. its funny the stuff that was on when i was a kid(giant robot and ultraman etc.)was just as good if not better then what is on now. 30 to 40 years later and the new stuff is just terrible. at least they could say back when that thats all the current tech allowed but todays just speaks of a lack of ideas and talent and a surplus of greed and laziness. u cant blame lack of money because the crap for today brings in huge revenue. but what do u expect when u have dunderhead kids who will actually watch tripe like pokemon.

a big cultural difference was the fact that u could tell big sato as lonely as he was did want to tell the doc makers to go eff themselves whereas an american even a nice one would have at the very least insisted on some boundaries if not just out and out kicking the crap out of the annoying bastards.although the nagging supermama at the end was definately relatable to quite a few americans im sure.

First of all, Pokemon disappeared over a decade ago after everyone "caught em all" and second I don't know what everyone is blabbing about. The movie isn't funny at all and is beyond boring besides when the monsters show up and the ending makes no sense.

I don't think you know what babbling means.

In any case, the movie was a pretty funny and unique deconstruction of kaiju tropes.

Let's be bad guys.
