Once the battles begin, it’s multiple rounds of knock-down, drag-out fights highlighted with the explosive, computer-generated destruction of Hong Kong.
And, true fans of the Godzilla mythos are in for a real treat when a certain mechanized Titan shows up to the fight challenging both popular behemoths in a tag team royale.
As with all Japanese-style monster movies, the humans mainly become collateral damage as the main events unfold, but a few are certainly notable here.
They include young orphan Jia (Kaylee Hottle), who helps Kong as his interpreter; Madison (Millie Bobby Brown), the daughter of Monarch scientist Mark Russell, who seeks to find the root of Godzilla’s aggression; Hollow Earth researcher Nathan Lind (Alexander Skarsgård); and the cartoonish bad guy, APEX’s CEO Warren Simmons (Demian Bichir), who instructs his minions to exterminate all Titans.

Gundam is jumping back on the live-action scene once again and this time with big names attached to bring it to life.
This is not the first live-action feature of the mecha anime series. One was released back in 2000 under the title, G-Saviour and was produced by a Canadian company, Polestar Entertainment. However, with an IMDb rating of 3.9, it’s like it never happened at all.

Just recently, Netflix announced the production of a new live-action film of the popular series. With big names such as Jordan Vogt-Roberts (Kong: Skull Island, The Walking Dead: World Beyond) directingand Brian K. Vaughan (Saga, Y: The Last Man) as the writer and executive producer.
Posted: Wed Apr 14, 2021 1:39 pm I m kind of surprised this manga doesn t get more hate. I mean, I thought it was cute, but the idea of a dragon ikemen that just wants to pet cute kitties all the time has similar energy to fangirls squeeing over cute catboys, the kind of thing that tends to receive a lot of eye-rolls from everyone who isn t into that, or at least from my experience.
Admittedly the translation I read of the original light novel was questionable, but while the manga gives me vibes like it s kind of intentionally over-the-top and not meant to be taken too seriously, the light novel gave me the impression it was taking itself completely seriously even though it was even moreso a shakily written and silly Mary Sue fantasy.
