Shin could have really used another six months in the tank, some of the shots look great and some are just embarrassing, like that last one.
Jayden Gomez
what looks so bad about it?
Henry Wilson
to protect his(?) eyes from the heat
Jaxson Barnes
she was a mom, therefore a lady

Frequently the movement will become very snappy or lack the same weight displayed in the rest of the film, like it was handed off to some lowly animator in the chain and not fixed on time for release. They'll also select camera angles that forgo any sense of scale and make the limited effects stand out much more. The rendering quality also varies greatly throughout the film, some of it looks like PS3 graphics, like the boats being pushed down the river, or when Godzilla slumps forward to go to sleep after blowing up the city.
It's not completely unexpected since asian CGI is almost always far behind what the west can accomplish, but there are still good looking moments in the film so I feel they could have aimed for a more even level of quality.
Ethan Gray
I was asking about the last shot
Jace Nguyen
lol, it has the budget of 15 million dollar, what the fuck did you expect? godzilla 2014 from hollywood cost 10 times this
Michael Scott

Benjamin Rivera
not sure if it's been officially stated but it's likely protective film or dialation to protect against the light emitted. otherwise dialation from excitement or a similar reaction.
Jordan Turner
>dialation from excitement I'm happy he is happy :)
Carter Turner
>implying godzilla didn't always look like shit It's either going to be fake or just be a guy wearing a suit.
by excitement i meant adrenaline. probably more terrified than happy :(
Jackson Bennett
now that you mention, getting some nukes dropped on your back by titanium birds must be pretty damn terrifying
Juan Gray
Nailed it.

It's called a "nictitating membrane". Sharks, birds, crocodilians and other animals have them. They essentially a semi-translucent eyelid that protects an animal's eyes while it attacks a prey animal.
Michael Taylor
I hate the shitty lowres sound effects that Anno puts in his films, they're really jarring.
Ian Cox
i mean yeah, godzilla isn't really malicious for most of the movie. hungry and confused, more likely. he's pretty animialistic.
Gavin Cox
This version of Godzilla is weirder than any previous version was, so that fits.
