#1 I saw Godzilla on Saturday. Yeah, there was a mine and people were working there. I didn't get the fact that they were slaves. I didn't know that was legal in the Philippines. I thought they were people who had jobs so they could buy a home and feed their families. Silly me. I actually liked the movie. The special effects were brilliant and the plot was OK. I mean, you don't really expect that much of a plot for a Godzilla movie, do you?

Damn. Just when I thought it was safe to go back to the movies.

#2 From what I hear about the movie it is more of a you can't fight nature and American Military are heroes type movie. I suspect the director got flack and has been inventing this global warming hogwash so that he isn't disinvited to dinner parties.

#4 so, I went and enjoyed it. It was almost empty in the theater, 9:45 showing on a Saturday night. 18 bucks a ticket for IMAX 3D in NJ.
Reserved seating, had to bump two guys out of my seats. tequila made me pushy for a 5'2" over 50 gal!
