If you had a chance to listen to the @JurassicParkPod about my experience in #jurassicworld and wanted to see some behind the scenes stuff I’m starting a thread with images/descriptions. I have a bunch so I’ll update over time! 🦖 ImageImageImageImage
The casting call straight from the dansjp3page forums. Image
This is the first email they sent back. I was in a state of shock when it showed up in my inbox. Once I came back down to earth I needed to figure out how to get from LA to Louisiana to fill out the necessary paper work. Image

Change that: After my second viewing, #GodzillaVsKong is a fun fucking movie.

Everything felt so fast with my first viewing so I needed another watch.

Kong Crew actually wasn’t that bad. Though it’s weird how they were 100% right about tracking the energy.
The #Godzilla crew are the weakest of the human characters. Though I didn’t hate them this time around. Comedy relief. I like the thought of a Conspiracy nut trying to figure out the truth.
Ren Serizawa was really disappointing. He should’ve had played a bigger role, stronger motives.

Walter Simmons was generic but had reasonable motives: He wants humans to be the “Apex” of the world again but that doesn’t follow suit with this universe. We co-exist with Godzilla.

🧵So I think 2020 was my best year so far as a journalist. Too bad it aligned with a terrible year for everything else. I guess it helps that I cover a world that's native to the internet 1/18 Image
🤾‍♂️Here are 11 stories that I think at least touch on the big topics I was all in on this year.

First up: really a mistake'ish. I thought 2020 would be the year of blockchain interoperability. That day is coming, but I was v early. 2/18

📈 Any retail investor who specifically followed my coverage closely would have been way the fuck ahead of everyone else on the DeFi boom. I was way on top of all the big moments. I've been telling you all since 2019.

JUST.
SAYIN'.

@WhoWouldWin13 Both monsters are...Big.

I mean...really big.

Godzilla I believe is pushing 380 feet high at least (in some scenes he looks WAY much taller than that), while the Kraken is likewise several hundred feet high. Its quite possible that Godzilla has more intelligence (the Kraken
@WhoWouldWin13 is said to not think, while Godzilla shows some smarts). Also, unlike the Kraken, Godzilla has a projectile weapon; atomic breath.
@WhoWouldWin13 However, before we give Godzilla any semblance of a victory, we need to keep in mind that the Kraken didn't fight fellow monsters like Godzilla has.

He fought TITANS!

We base the starting date for the Iran hostage crisis as a U.S. national emergency on Presidential Executive Order 12170. It remains in effect (which quite honestly surprised us).

We base the starting date for Cuban military attacks as a U.S. national emergency on Presidential Proclamation 6867. It remains in effect.

Trick or treating with Godzilla (aka my 9 yo nephew):

Me: Oh no! That T-Rex fell down.
Godzilla: Awww! My Dino buds are going down.

Me: Don’t get hit by a car now.

Comme vous le savez, je participe au podcast #Batoku dédiée à la franchise Godzilla. Dans ~3 semaines, on enregistre le #4 dédié à l'ère Millenium, de 1998 (inclus) à 2004.
Pour se chauffer d'ici là, mon thread d'impressions sur ces films, petit à petit, vu/revu pour l'occasion👇
Godzilla (1998). L'inévitable étape.
Premier film 100% US qui se montre maladroit et indécis sur bien des points pour aborder le mythe. L'influence de Jurassik Park est (trop) palpable, les codes de Godzilla ne sont pas "respectés"...
Et pourtant... le film a bien des qualités.
Parce qu'au delà de la question de la "fidélité", difficile de nier un film de monstre parfois solide, avec plusieurs fulgurances de réal' et autres idées bien senties. La CGI s'en sort honnêtement (21 ans !) et la gestion du rythme, des apparitions du monstre sont maîtrisées.

It’s #Croctober, so that means I’ll be featuring croc-relatives using the hashtag #AtoZcrocs. Follow along this month for a deep dive into how weird croc #evolution really got.
A is for Anatosuchus, a notosuchian from the Cretaceous of Niger. It’s name means “duck-crocodile,” for it’s oddly flared snout. #Croctober #AtoZcrocs #fossils

📸 Sereno and Larsson, 2009: doc.rero.ch/record/200234/… skeleton of Anatosuchus, flared snout to the left, body out to the right, missing most of its tailArtist's reconstruction of Anatosuchus in an upright posture, duck-like snout gaping to show off flared shape
Anatosuchus’ upright limb posture and funky snout might have helped it wade in the shallows and root around for small prey. #Croctober #AtoZcrocs #fossils

📸 Sereno and Larsson, 2009: doc.rero.ch/record/200234/… Photographs of Anatosuchus' skull in dorsal, ventral, and lateral views, snout flares out like a duck bill, but is filled with relatively small teethLine drawing interpretation of the skull shown in similar views as the photographs, snout flares out like a duck bill, but is filled with relatively small teeth

The dealer promises a technically perfect movie that delivers larger than life high-quality spectacle and special effects. " #GODZILLA
The head of the Caro Premier assured those present in the hall "that the confrontation of icons from different film universes and the desire to find out who truly triumphs will foster an event of excitement and interest in the film among a wide audience." #GODZILLA

Hollywood #GODZILLA and Japan GODZILLA To Evolve Together Says Godzilla Strategic Conference Head PM, Akito Takahashi--

TOHO's Akito Takahashi says "the company, which licenses its characters and consults on the Legendary films, is happy with the westernized blockbusters." PT1
(Continuing) -- ""We love the Hollywood Godzilla, we think it's really an honor that they wanted to sort of remake their Hollywood version," Takahashi says. "It's so different. We're going to continue that branding and that type of Godzilla universe to expand even more. " PT2
(Continuing) -- "However, the Japanese Godzilla has 29 movies that have already come out. It's a very specific type of Godzilla universe, so we're probably going to see both of them sort of evolving as we go. We just love that there's two sides of Godzilla." --Part 3 #GODZILLA

Pues ya vi el trailer de #Godzilla King of the Monsters y la verdad... como que no me prendió tanto como esperaba. Entre los kaiju que se identifican fácilmente están #Rodan, #Mothra, #KingGhidora y, obvio, Godzilla #ゴジラ #ゴジラキング・オブ・ザ・モンスターズ
Me gustó que al fin vamos a ver más monstruos del universo Toho en una adaptación de Hollywood... no me gustó la excusa chafa del trailer de los titanes, es una explicación que no necesitamos...
Además de que cada monstruo ya tiene un origen i.e. #KingGhidora es extraterrestre; #Mothra es la fuerza protectora de la naturaleza... etc. Dato curioso, #Rodan es una metáfora de la amenaza soviética y #Godzilla de la amenaza nuclear #ゴジラ #ラドン #モスラ #キングギドラ

HILO: Hoy quiero hablaros sobre el rey de los kaijû, icono de la cultura japonesa moderna: el dinosaurio nuclear #Godzilla. Prometo opiniones completamente personales y spoilers de tipo general.
Los japoneses escriben y pronuncian su nombre como "gojira" (ゴジラ). Viene de un juego de palabras entre "gorira" (gorila) y kujira (ballena). En el alfabeto romano se escribe "Godzilla". Los propios japoneses lo escriben así cuando aparece su nombre con nuestras letras.
Godzilla es lo que conocemos como un "kaijû", que no es un término inventado para Pacific Rim (2013), sino que da nombre propio a su género de cine. Traducido literalmente sería algo así como "bestia misteriosa".
