I actually liked it. It's dumb sci-fi Godzilla but with a ridiculous budget, gotta go in with those expectations and it's a pretty good time.

I didn't like the predecessor, the fights were good, but whenever it was about the people and their actions, I almost fell asleep. And the trailers for the sequel looked even worse to me.

I feel like they've hit a good balance between humans and the monsters with the last two. King of the Monsters is when they truly went overboard with the humans that no one cares about (aka Milly Bobby Brown), and they corrected course IMO.

We'll take any Godzilla and Kong, Kong movies were good, Godzilla movies are fine. It's exciting popcorn movies.

what a stupid take. Its godzilla and king kong. Of course it's CGI heavy.
This is like saying there are too many cars in fast and furious.

No, what's stupid is acting like CGI overload is automatically excused just because it's a Godzilla movie
There's a difference between using CGI to enhance action and drowning the film in it to the point where it feels like you're watching a PlayStation cutscene for 20 minutes straight
If your defense of the movie is "what did you expect?" then congratulations, you've accepted mediocrity
Oh and that Fast & Furious comparison? Completely braindead. It's such a false equivalence it hurts

news flash: godzilla and king kong do not exist in real life. They are fictional creatures. It has to be done digitally. If you are expecting 2 guys in a costume like it was in the 50s then you are just delusional. Hate to break it to you but even the highly praised Godzilla Minus One is a heavy CG fest.
There's also no such thing as "too much cgi" because all movies require visual effects. The problem is the best VFX are ones that you notice so it creates a common misconception that cg isn't needed. Even if it's a stunt that was done practically it requires VFX, because there's other stuff that you have to do, such as painting out wires/harnesses, set extensions, or background replacements.

News flash: nobody said Godzilla and Kong should be done with sock puppets and rubber suits, Einstein.
We all know they're fictional, really cracking open the mysteries of the universe there. Did you figure that one out all by yourself or did the Blu-ray extras tell you?
The issue isn't that CGI is used, it's how it's used. There's a difference between integrating CGI into a film to elevate storytelling, and replacing the entire damn movie with a soulless digital cartoon that feels like you're watching a cutscene on loop.
As for the "there's no such thing as too much CGI" take? Give me a fucking break. That's like saying there's no such thing as too much seasoning because all food needs flavor. Sure, every modern movie uses VFX in some form (painting out wires, adding backgrounds, set extensions) that's not the issue.
We're talking about entire scenes that are nothing but CGI noise. Just look at this slop:
What you're doing is pretending anyone criticizing the overuse of CGI wants to go back to puppets and cardboard cities when in reality, they want balance. They want substance. They want film, not a 200-million-dollar tech demo.

That's what I'm thinking, or maybe Gigan
