I just saw Godzilla minus one, link metacritic and I was left with awe about the script and the music. It’s situated in post WW2 Japan, and since we have national Memorial Day for the fallen this week in my country, it felt appropriate.

The monster in itself is not a high end design, but the movie feels like a colorized old authentic movie. It has a special atmosphere . I appreciated the metaphor for godzilla as a mix of ancient folklore and the spirit of defeat and reconstruction after WW II. I highly recommend this movie if you’re into this (specific) genre.

On a personal note, watching the movie is also transcending our (family) history, as many people were taken prisoners by the Japanese. But the enemy, (were and) became victims too. So , Memorial is about your own losses, but maybe also about how your then- enemy, can become a " now"- friend.

It’s never been about reading the post/ articles. Mmm?!

Feels like this was generated by an AI

Like the meme says: thats what an AI would say. Lol

I suppose it’s the “we ised to be together, it used to be our continent, now we’re separated”.

Yeah and it might have something to uniting continents with Communism ( or Sino- Russian imperialism) as in the end you see the Hammer and the Sickle.

Lol what? You talking about the bong video you’re replying

Of course not. That’s just actually a funny bong video. Lol. I reacted to the meme

To me this meme comes across as fascist , rascist and prejudiced.

You have become 200%, what you supposedly hate so much.

" Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster… for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you."

Hope so too. Here’s the (only) movie poster afaik.

Add.Note at the end of the article are some impressions: One fan who had just watched the film at a cinema in Tokyo said the film was the “culmination” of Miyazaki’s anime output.

“I couldn’t digest it all by just watching it once … I feel like I want to watch it again immediately,”
