Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
He just sounds like a guy that didn't really like the projects he got stuck with honestly. I think he was just frustrated that he was doing stuff like this instead of other types of projects.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
This is the bit that stood out to me:
DM: Which of the Godzilla films you directed are your favorites?
JF: None of them.
DM: Are there any with which you are especially unhappy?
JF: Many.
Wow, Fukuda - twenty years since your last G-film and you're *still* butthurt about it?

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
That is what it seems like to me. It would have been interesting to know what specifically he didn't like about the movies...other than not wanting to do them in the first place!Godzillian wrote:He just sounds like a guy that didn't really like the projects he got stuck with honestly.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
Made a thread for the interview
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=15972
OT: I think a daughter for Godzilla could be cool if done right but Minya rocks. I love that little grey blob of kaiju.

The title " Daughter of Godzilla" doesn't have the same ring to it as "Son of...".

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
(In response to all three previous posters) I wouldn't go that far...
Child abuse is a serious matter, but Minya is only a fictional character.
I just wanted to point out that little detail in my previous post because I thought it was a little weird to fantasize the brutal beating of a fictional character. Especially one that is more or less an innocent little creature.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
Oh trust me I know, I wasn't trying to soften the seriousness of the subject, but in the context of his description its child abuse, just taking place in a fictional universe

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
For once, you're making sense, and I agree with you. At least Minilla had some personality. Little Godzilla was there to serve as a plot device and to make the audience go "Aaawe," and that's it.Godzilla14 wrote:Stop picking on Minilla. Little Godzilla is a Anime chibi in real life!

Because he doesn't really look like a younger version of Godzilla?

I named my dog Minya. There is no hate.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
Minilla’s a cuck.
Yeah, Godzilla wins... sometimes. I mean, he was killed by Dr. Serizawa's patented bubble-bath formula, heartburn, missiles, and poor box office returns, got his ass kicked by a drunken, circus-escaped gorilla, then he was beaten by two newborn worms, yeah some “king”.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
My only guess is he was the starting point of when the series became more childish until Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla came around and people dislike him for it.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
Because a lot of Godzilla fans have an undying need to be taken seriously.
Edit: Jesus, I didn't realize that this thread is from 2013 and that I already posted in it then. I forgot I've been around for as long as I have.

Re: Minya: Why all the hate?
Personally, I think it's the voice that ruined Minya for some people. They were fine with a cute kaiju, but then Minya was given a voice in AMA. People just didn't like that voice.
