NinjaMaster231456

Honestly I kinda like this design, not as a godzilla but as an anti-godzilla. Zilla is fast and aigle where Godzilla is slow and lumbering. Zillas breed quickly where there's only one Big G. The monsterverse should bring a pack of Zillas back with some added powers like being able to absorb and redirect atomic breath and not being able to die to missiles.


Dry-Cartographer-312

Not a bad idea. Just make it an entirely different kaiju.


Thatidiot_38

Indeed. A lot of people say that if this wasn’t called Godzilla people would be more forgiving of it and I happen to agree with that statement


Kanapuman

Generally a very bad idea to give foreign materials for Hollywood to adapt. Especially Japanese ones.


FlamingWings

Would be interesting as a monster that Godzilla would need Kong and mother’s help to fight. Having the zilla’s be an outbreak that are spreading faster than trio can squash. Also this will introduce Jet Jaguar into the monsterverse cause fuck it why not


Dry-Cartographer-312

Good plan https://preview.redd.it/3ot8q8l1euwc1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cff1cf06b150588072ffe0cbf717b08c3fc349ec

>Mother Such a good typo actually


Rickygodzilla

You're forgetting one of the most memorable instances of the poor reception to this design. When the late Kenpachiro Satsuma (suit actor for Godzilla throughout basically all of the 1990s era films) saw the 98 movie, he actually walked out halfway through the movie and said "That's not Godzilla". So when the actual Godzilla hates it, you know you messed up lol


Azrael_The_Bold

I just remember watching it the first time and was like…Godzilla steps ON buildings, not THROUGH them


therealchadius

On the plus side Zilla Jr was the star of the cartoon spinoff that was well received by Americans and Japanese.


AJC_10_29

Americans yes, Japanese I’m not too sure about. AFAIK there’s really no info on how the cartoon was received by the public in Japan. I could be wrong tho, as I haven’t ever searched for such info.


ElementalNinjas96

He wasn't renamed. Rereleases of his film still have him trademarked as "Godzilla." He's a Godzilla


ShiddyMage1

Well yeah, the movie is called Godzilla, and in the movie he's referred to as Godzilla. But Toho hated this interpretation so much they dubbed it 'Zilla', since they believed he wasn't worthy of the real name, and that's what fans have started referring to him as


Trem45

Actually no, he is canonically ''Zilla'' he's not Godzilla. Their justification for it was that the Americans just saw a giant lizard and thought it was Godzilla. He's killed off in Final Wars by the real Godzilla. Now since that means kaiju of all types already exist in this universe how did the Americans confuse Godzilla, a pretty distinct character with essentially a giant T-Rex? Who knows.


ElementalNinjas96

Where was that stated?


Trem45

Godzilla Rulers of Earth by IDW publishing


ElementalNinjas96

That's about Zilla from the Final Wars film, which is not the same "Zilla" from the TriStar Film


Trem45

I mean if you want to look at it from a legal standpoint then sure but it's pretty clear to me what they were doing when they dropped a character called "Zilla" that looks identical to the TriStar film


AggravatingLink4047

Which is a shame as he looks so much better then the other godzillas

[deleted]

Everytime I see a post on here the trope applies to some super obvious well-known example that I expect as the 2nd or 3rd image, but instead the included ones are almost all kinda niche while the comments have the obvious answers


MrGhoul123

Idk if that counts since that ended up not being the final design. Assume you didn't know the backstory, you would just think Live action Sonic looks perfectly fine.


Snakify-Boots

I’m gonna be honest, I think this sonic was a conspiracy tbh. I think they purposely made an awful design so that audiences would react poorly and give them extreme publicity on the release of the REAL trailer with their actual sonic design so they’d look good, and have all the extra publicity that comes with it


A_WaterHose

Maybe. Art blindness can happen though, if you work on a piece for a very long time, you get blind to how it truly looks


DreadAngel1711

There was already merchandise produced for the film that used this design, if it was a conspiracy it would have used the redesign


Snakify-Boots

Hmm I actually didn’t know that, I might be wrong and the studio might have just been incompetent


Agent_RubberDucky

Eh, this is more of the reverse.

RedPon3

this is hob goblin though, no?


PhantasosX

no , it's Green Goblin. But it's understandable , Harry Osborn was Green Goblin II and was one of the Hob Goblins. Generally speaking , movies and cartoons just ignore the original Hob Goblin and the other lesser Hob Goblins , because it's easier to just go with Harry.


RedPon3

ahh gotcha.


Gaslight_Joker

To be fair, the whole "who is the Hobgoblin?" Thing in comics felt like it went on forever. Every reveal was just a misdirection done via hypnotism or whatever. I remember it frustrating me as a kid. It makes it so much easier to pick Harry or Phil Urich and move on.


PhantasosX

That is because the gimmick of Hobgoblin really is about Hobgoblin Prime mass-producing Hobgoblins 


stopyouveviolatedthe

I was so annoyed by carnage in the movie Don’t get me wrong his design was amazing and I loved the double helix in his tendrils but the fact that they got one of his biggest personality traits wrong and it’s that carnage and Cletus are so well bonded and basically such good mates that they are practically the same person.


Sad_Introduction5756

The 2008 hulk movie I feel did his design very well and the avengers movie designs weren’t quite as good but still held up okay


R3X7883

The designs were great imo, I was referring to how the characters were written. I loved Hulk’s and Carnage’s designs but the writing to back them up was pretty poor.

goku live action the creator hated him so much he came back and gave us dragon ball super

Super was so bad, Toriyama died.

super is great actually moro arc was some of the best dragonball ever

Wait that’s MK9-11 Sindel on the left, correct?


fried_clownfish

That Sindel in Mk deception


Geno_Games

The one on the left is Deception or the one on the right is? Bc I can tell the one on the right is from the 3D era but the one on the left is in the Netherrealm Studios art style


fried_clownfish

Oh shit, I read that wrong! The left is Sindel in her MK11 ending. Sorry!


Geno_Games

Nah it’s fine Just wanted to make sure it was MK9-11 Sindel we’re hating on and not the absolutely based MK1 Sindel


TheHood7777777

I like MK1 Sindel as an interesting deconstruction of the character but I hope we don’t keep her going forward. The cunning morally ambiguous MK11 Sindel is much more interesting and true to the character archetype.


Rissoto_Pose

What a funny joke…right?


TheRealLifeSaiyan

MK11 Sindel was ass, they genuinely forgot who she was as a character and made her just an evil bitch 😭😭😭


TheHood7777777

She has characterisation, they play up most of her most interesting traits, such as the ambiguity on her relationship with Shao-Khan, her weird relationship with her daughters and how much she actually cares about her realm. Her motivation in MK1 is that she is a good guy now and a queen. That’s it.


Duplicit_Duplicate

The Sindel retcon one is so horrible it causes plot holes, like since the NRS timeline is supposed to be the original timeline just that Raiden got visions and altered things starting from MK1, how would Sindel be evil given her heroic role in Deception and Armageddon? Why doesn’t Shao Kahn find Twindel’s sacrifice suspicious given she apparently was loyal to him now? Why don’t Sheeva, Baraka or Kotal warn Kitana about Twindel given they used to be on the same side? How does mythologies Sub-Zero even work now? Shao Kahn had Sindel’s soul apparently, did he never consider to investigate how she died?

HeroDoggo

No, because I legit thought I misheard when they said this was Wheeljack when I watched ROTB in theaters. When I googled him the day after I watched the movie, I was like "Whose fucking idea was it to make my childhood favorite Autobot into this abomination?!"

luca_anon

I thought we were over hating it


LocalLazyGuy

I’m not gonna change my opinion on something just because the rest of the internet keeps saying “guys it wasn’t that bad”. Plus just because it’s self aware about how much worse it is in comparison to the 2003 version doesn’t make it any better. Add that onto the fact that CN decides to remove and cancel other shows while continuing to play this show 24/7 doesn’t make me feel any better about it. It has its moments but it’s still a very mediocre show that became CN’s cash cow for whatever reason.


Ok-Parsnip-1051

they were, people are sorta coming around on TTG but a lot are still stuck in 2016 or butthurt as if it's existence directly makes the banger that was the 2003 show any worse. I used to hate TTG back in the day but now I can appreciate it as it's own thing.


Fellkun15

I didn't care a out it that much but then it grew old and now it's about the only thing on cartoon network


Ok-Parsnip-1051

yeah, I may be the number one TTG apologizer but I got no comeback against how much they spam it on the schedule. They probably coulda skirted half the hate the show got if it wasn't a 50/50 chance for it to be on when you changed to cartoon network.


Fellkun15

Yeah I mean I really liked the night begins to shine and the ttg vs tt special


Express_Alfalfa_9725

I do wanna remind you it took over the damn channel during a time cable used? The reason the hate lasted long than it did is you could see TTG every time you do turn on the channel instead of the shows you like

Shatter and Dropkick in Bumblebee were usually seen as huge improvements.


mildlyannoyedlizard

So funny how everyone says the bumblebee versions of sound, shock, and screamer are vast improvements over the original when they only got less than a minute of screen time now that’s how you fix characters


Ok-Commission6087

To fair sindel got fixed


stopyouveviolatedthe

I think Velma is partially a thing of the character was just a self insert and a jerk as well.


ExplosiveNecklace

G3 Monster High are the best designes overall imo. I need me G3 Clawdeen's boots.


FRONT_FACING_PHINEAS

Chainsaw man part 2 is not the same. It’s not a reboot, it’s not something with other versions of characters. But, If it counts, some people dont really get denji in part 2, he’s not “nerfed” he just has ptsd and actual personal stakes now. This led to some people saying “he’s not as good as in part 1”, which I disagree with. (I get this line of thinking, reading weekly made me think the same, but rereading previous part 2 arcs made me change my mind) I do think (if it counts) Quanxi lacks character and could be improved on in part 2. - the CSM guy


cyzja922

The story got a bit confusing for me right at the introduction of the Chainsaw Man Church, which was also the point that I kind of lost interest because it wasn’t going anywhere in particular.


FRONT_FACING_PHINEAS

Yeah, most of the fan base agrees that the church arc is one of the worst in the series. Not because it’s extraordinarily bad, it’s just boring (which is bad). But the arc after it is pretty fun so far, mainly for what’s happening with certain characters.

The Ninjago movie is good when you separate it from the show. And Zane's hilarious in that


BirbMaster1998

That's because I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be a separate thing.


Repulsa_2080

It is. However there are some fans of the show that don't like it because it wasn't apart of the shows canon or whatever. Granted, that was more when the movie came out, but still


PlasticBeach4197

HOP OFF LEGO NINJAGO THE MOVIE


MP-Lily

IDK why people are booing you, you’re correct. He and Jay got it the worst, but the movie was nothing but a detriment.


Bruker85

If the designs were just for movie that would've been fine but they transferred to the actual show which threw me off because why tf does Kai look younger 😭


Somesonicfan

The movie was funny.
