Is "The Meg" a Kaiju movie?
- Thread starter Gundam
- Start date
????
To be honest, I thought the title "The Meg" was stupid because it made me think of her, more specifically her appearance as the asteroid monster in Something Something Something Dark Side.
I really want an AntMan movie where giant monster attack earth so we can have Ultraman style battle with Giantman vs Kaiju
At what size does it shift from real prehistoric creatures to giant movie monster? Because the shark in the trailer definitely isn't aiming for "real prehistoric creature". The real Megalodon was maybe about 60ft long, the one in the movie is movie-monster size
The promo art is sensationalizing the size of the animal; It's not that big in the actual movie
I know the word "Kaiju" existed before Pacific Rim, but its constant appearance since then bothers me for stupid reasons. Anyway, something tells me this movie is going to be too self-serious exciting or too self-aware to be funny, and will be a blip.
I saw The Meg tonight. It is a weird movie. I can't say I didn't have some fun with it but some parts are wonky as hell and the editing is all over the place. Really oddly delivered funny bits too but honestly really decent special effects.
Yeah. Like Platy said it's a super sized Megalodon. Just because it can't walk on land to ravage a city shouldn't preclude it.
Godzilla vs Thanos when????

Faster than "Giant Monster Movie" (vs Monster Movie, to clear confusion between horror films) and Tokusatsu has become a specific style of film making.
Maybe there's more than one.Actually it appears to change size in the trailer =P

Uhhhh I mean the second shot is obviously just a trailer image and most probably not in the final film.
What about that Anne Hathaway movje Colossal?
God, I love this movie
Ive thought about this off and on today and the best I can get to is "kaiju adjacent".
But I wouldn't really argue with someone calling it kaiju.

Wtf is this lol ???
And yes I would call this a Kaiju movie.
I think Godzilla is considered a Daikaiju anyway
This must have been what Peter was pitching.
Except it's just one shark and already Way Bigger Jaws (OT?)
