People that can't seem to get over fucking typos.

You'll always get that special person that just has to correct you by doing this

Example: tomorow

Them: ToMoRoW!

Like yeah dude I get it...lol :roll:

And it's like just the dumbest thing. Worst part is they'll keep it up for days being obnoxious with it.

I've been part of the online forum community for going on 20 years now, with exposure to GojiStomp, Rodan's Roost/Kaijuphile and, of course, TK. I will take any one of them, even current TK (which is honestly better than most prior TK "eras"), over any FB group I'm in by far.

My main problem with FB groups is that they are all virtually the same. New DVD/Blu-Ray comes out? Get ready to have your feed flooded with pictures of the case and the same handful of statements. "Its out!" "I never seen it before!" "Anybody else pick it up"? No man. Nobody. Not a single soul in a Godzilla/tokusatsu knew this wide release was coming and nobody else has seen it. You're the first. Congrats. Not a single fan in the US has ever even heard of Ultraman, *in Hank Hill voice* let me tell ya' what. You can find the same post from the same people with the same exact typos repeated in multiple groups and it is beyond obnoxious. Jesus Christ, there's *STILL* people just randomly posting that they picked up Godzilla vs. Kong. Nobody f'n cares.

Having now been part of a handful of groups for a while, I can't understand how anyone would think any of them are as good as a good, ole fashion message board. Don't get me wrong, I like a lot of the people I've crossed paths with directly, but holy shit. Between the same repeated posts, the constant repeats of the same news everyone knows and was posted 100 times already and the constant influx of "art"...

God forbid there is ANY actual news from a new movie. 'Cause it's just a constant flood of the same f'n thing for days on end. Toy groups are even worse. Can't wait for my feed to get hit with the same screen shots and advertisements for Super 7's Ultimate Godzilla line. I'll probably be bailing in more than one group.

TK has all of those same problems in some capacity as well. But the big difference is each thing is then categorized in a proper thread. Scroll through most FB groups and you'll find something like this.

- An announcement that was recently made.
- Random kaiju picture.
- Same announcement that was recently made, posted now by somebody else.
- Same announcement that was recently made, posted now by somebody else, only now adding an opinion.
- Someone bitching about said announcement.
- Something actually interesting.
- Random kaiju picture.
- Artwork, either someone's own bad artwork or something being reposted from Matt Frank or Bob Eggleton.

I've seen experiences like yours in the larger, more unruly Facebook groups when they just let anyone in. I'm part of a few smaller, more specialized groups and the experience has been much better. I recently started an articulated toy group and its been a great experience and I've had great time engaging and getting to know new people. People are also super generous on there. The message board format is good for discussions but as I said earlier, this place has had giant turnover throughout the years for various reasons that doesn't make it attractive to a lot of people. I'm glad it still exists and I like thinking back to the fun of pre-Godzilla 2014. I hadn't had that much fun on a board since post 1998.

Speaking of old boards do you remember Project G and the Centropolis message boards? I used to always be on those!

You know what really gets on my nerves? Those YouTube videos with titles like "10 things you missed on episode *insert number here* of *insert TV show title here*."

Movies, movie trailers, TV show trailers, episodes, these channels do them all and I'm tired of seeing these videos in my recommendations.

Yeah, I'm fairly sure I know exactly which group you're talking about. And I really have no desire to interact with most of those people and the ones I do, I just talk to off the group. Good friend of mine was literally chased out of those types of groups because he was excited about getting a 40th anniversary, special color set of the Trendmasters figures from the mid-90s. If it has guys like Gregory Cordaro running around, it's just as bad a group as the others.

Nah. My first forums were Rodan's Roost around 2003, and then GojiStomp and TK.

Cordaro isn't in many of the non-toy I'm a part of. He's still in some toy groups but after they booted him from being a mod in the Collector's group he doesn't seem to be around as much. Which is good.

I'm currently listening to the Godzilla Singular point OST and just a couple minutes ago, I landed on The Singular Point. Turns out it's really good. However, for some godforsaken reason, there's Godzilla roars in the song. Yes. Literal sound effects. In a goddang song. Who thought this was a good idea? Even worse, the roars aren't in the show when The Singular Point plays. What this implies is that someone unmistakably ruined this great theme in its sole official release. I hope they stub their toe.

I feel like that some Anti SJW have so much hatred for the SJW that go after people that just have different opinions or can be easily tricked by a video mocking them.

And some of them Baffles my mind, like the time that a guy literally have a mental breakdown to Parasite won the Award for being the best movie out there because what he said “ it’s in form film so it can’t be the best movie of the year”
And said Joker should’ve won even though they toggle on the same subject matter.
Here’s the video

I also apologize if Some of you guys get annoyed of me talking way too much on the subject matter, if I do that I’m sorry

Eh, I've seen more annoying subject matters during my time here.

Joker fans are a weird bunch, speaking of your post. It doesn't matter to me if they like or dislike the film, but the way some of them treat it as the second coming of god is kinda annoying.

I mean we already had this same discussion here like 2 weeks ago. To the point where mods had to tell all of us to relax. So maybe not a subject matter to touch on again.

I feel the opposite way, and I don't feel like rewriting all of my points from the last dispute. Maybe not regarding Parasite, but if you're talking straight up umbrella terminology, then the passive aggressive behavior stems from one side, and the vitriol to said behavior from the other.

Added in 3 minutes 45 seconds:
Also, my opinion is that Joker is a Master Class film, because it feels like the only one with a real heart and soul from commercial Hollywood's CBMs in years.

Since TDK in 2008.

But having not seen Parasite, I also acknowledge foreign films can absolutely win best movie as I've seen some top-tier ones.

Currency exchange rates, and the instability of the dollar and yen.

Long story short, I've been paying for a graduate degree. It's been no problem, but earlier this year Japanese yen was .96 of a dollar, which is a difference, but not a substantial one. Now, the yen is falling, and it's about .90. That may not seem like a lot, but when you're paying upwards of 8K a semester, that can amount to an extra thousand or two. Should be fine, but damn it's annoying. Worst part is that because it's tuition, I can't just pay it all now; I gotta wait every semester to pay and watch the money shrink and shrink. Auuuugh.

Prior to this, budgeting and being responsible with money was pretty easy, but this is the type of thing that severely dampers things. Yuck.

And yeah, I'll preference this with realizing I'm lucky to have the money to begin with; corona fucked over a lot of people's livelihoods and budgets. I hear all the time that in the United States, prices for basic necessities have gone up due to inflation. Crazy.

And the group has gotten much better and almost completely drama free as a result. I've known the guy for over 25 years, but I just couldn't stand babysitting someone who is even older than me. The group practically runs itself now and I'd say it's one of better collecting groups out there, especially now.

I do agree that most public movie-related Godzilla FB groups are complete garbage though. MM isn't wrong about that.

Deal with that daily. The neighbor as a young child "on the spectrum". So all he does from 8:00am to about 7/9pm is go outside and wail like a siren. He also bangs things like his polyresin desk like a drum. Did I mention he screams all day? Every day? For nearly a year? I honestly blame the parents, but god damn it's driving me insane. Can't sleep on the couch with the nice breeze from the open window without "BWWAAAARRRGFH! AAAAAAARRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!" keeping me and everyone else up.

Also the problem isn't we don't have the money. People who had their jobs "temp shutdown" because of the orders, were getting EXTRA MONEY out the ass. Like 600+ an unemployement check and it just increased the more critera you met. On Average, people were making MORE off their job then they were on it. Then the stimulus hits. Then all the breaks for people who were unemployed, like skipping rent for 6 months, skipping certain bills. Having some shit waved entirely. On top of the bonus money.

Guess what? Same people bitching they are in financial trouble. Lazy fuckers, the all of them. I had to work during this shit. I contracted the Wu-Flu. What did I get? Nothing out of the normal besides the stimulus. Did i get the breaks? No, didn't qualify and I turned them down even if I did. Nothing changed for me, and I and the rest of my family is doing fine.

Why are all these people bitching about not having the money to handle their bills, despite making more then they ever did? Poor decisions. Take responsibility for your actions, ffs you did this for years before and now you all just drop the damn ball. Tough shit.

*Note this is not ALL the cases and there are those who are struggling. A vocal portion of them constantly bitching how the $600 extra a check, per person or in some cases 1200 extra just isnt enough. They need more money, oh and outside dining open. And Disney Land.. HMMMMMM CANT MAKE ENDS MEET BUT WANTS TO SPEND MORE MONEY AT FUCKING DISNEY LAND!!! BIG - THINK - EMOJI

Hell yeeeeesss!

I worked during this crap storm "essential worker" and got shyt from all the bonuses others got. It was better to just not work but noooow they crying they broke with all that stimi and free aide. But agree some do need it but I'm betting a whole lot just got a free ride.

Flat Earthers still exist?

I mean they were a trend about two to three yrs ago. Especially with some celebrities coming out as flat Earthers.
