I saw #GodzillaXKongTheNewEmpire last night, and I definitely had mixed feelings about it, especially given how much I love Godzilla Minus One. Late into the movie, I had a thought-shift in understanding that they're very different things. Godzilla Minus One is very much more of a psychological film delving into the trauma of having been on the receiving end of nuclear bombs. #Godzilla#KingKong#GodzillaXKong /1
In looking at it today, I think they mean for it to be Godzilla "times" Kong, like a math equation, where the two of them together makes them exponentially more powerful. #Godzilla#KingKong#GodzillaXKong#GodzillaXKongTheNewEmpire /5 end

We here at Fusion Patrol usually stay far, far away from the oscars… or perhaps our content usually stays far, far away from the Oscars, but not last night.
Here’s a big shout-out to Godzilla Minus One for not only pulling off the Oscar Win for Best Visual Effects, but doing so for a budget of $15 million – a minisucle budget compared to the Hollywood blockbusters it was up against.
In honor, this week John and I will be recording our podcast on our thoughts about Godzilla Minus One, and that will be dropping on March 30th.
This morning after another fantastic #Monsterdon event, I remain gobsmacked by the original #Gojira#Godzilla film.
I do not know what headspace I was in when I watched it before, but this time, it hit home HARD.
It is a masterpiece.
After seeing Oppenheimer a few times last year plus reading the book, I've got much more historical context for why this film was made and what it meant -- and also the cultural/film norms that it broke.
Astounding in that context. Excellent food for thought.
