"[Brackett] was my teacher. I imitated her, of course. She had those beautiful short stories in Planet Stories about John Stark, they were all Edgar Rice Burroughs par excellence. In other words, she could write better than Burroughs. She took the same sort of things he did: the fighting man of Mars, the gods of Mars, the Martian stories, but gave them that extra ambiance, style, and imagination."

I love this game for so many reasons:

The storyline is pretty engaging.
How they talk to each other in the scenes is crazy--hilarious at times.
Kirzu's attitude and fighting skills.
The fun little side stories.
The strange games included from darts and mah-jong to chatting up girls in the cabaret and online video chat.

This is one of those films where the trailers were better than the end product. Honestly, I barely remember G14, only that the title character doesn't show up until the end. At least Skull Island had some good Kong kicking ass moments and Tom Hiddleston in a tight shirt.
The main characters are uninteresting, basically, we've got Coach, that kid from Stranger Things, and the chick that's a relative of that American Horror Story actress. The movie did not make me care about them at all, I would have been fine with them all biting the dust. There's a little more about Monarch, but seriously, Thomas Middleditch was annoying.
Basically, I was there for Godzilla, and all the other monsters fighting. There wasn't enough of it, as far as I'm concerned. I guess it was worth seeing the action on the big screen. I'm vaguely interested to see Godzilla vs Kong (plz let Toby Kebbell do the mo-cap again).

I was so excited for this game, this franchise is my favourite.
There are only around 4 franchises that i have never missed a midnight launch or a ultimate addition,
But this game breaks logic unlike the others that created a beautiful landscape to tell stories, but this game doesn’t fit.
I’m all about stealth and planning my way through missions, but this game doesnt really let you do that, instead it cares too much about fighting,
I did like the bird, was a different unlogical but different idea that i did enjoy,
For me this is the worst of the franchise and i had to use so much will just to finish the main story so i could say i gave it my best try
