  • Phil has had some real big brained political takes since he started doing react content this past year. Some "highlights" include:

    • If you have a female protagonist, you need a good reason for it.

    • We should have police chases for the sake of going after shoplifters.

    • The worst part of 9/11 is that airline food sucks now.

    • DoorDashers exploiting non-citizens by making them deliver their orders for pennies on the dollar is bad because it's "giving illegal aliens jobs."

    And those are just the ones I remember.

    Honestly, with the type of 'back to basics' approach of the Shin movies, and how corny the original Gamera movies were, I'd be wary a Shin Gamera. Plus, if they went with the friend to all children approach, I feel like it would just be a retread of both Shin Gojira and Ultraman.

    But maybe I'm just nitpicking, and I'd be down for a new live action Gamera movie with modern filmmaking techniques.

    I was a little concerned when I saw that he'd fight four kaiju and aliens in the trailer, but I was actually pleasantly surprised by how well the movie flowed together.

    My only complaint is that if they were going to use the Shin Gojira model for Gomess, they should have added Jirass too. I need to see that thing with a frill.






  • Or he comes back from Cuba like:

    “Folks, the bourgeois, they’re no good everyone is saying it. All these workers, very handsome workers come up to me and say, Comrade Trump there is a specter haunting Europe, and you know what, they’re right. These bourgeois are very nasty people very very rude and very unfair to the workers. They are stealing our surplus value and no one is doing anything about it. The proletariat comes up to me everyday and says, Comrade Trump will you lead the revolution? And I gotta turn to them and say, Look the instruments of capitalism will be used to bring about its destruction believe me you gotta trust me on this one. The means of production, obama never wanted to seize them. Well guess what? I’m seizing them. Landlords? They’re done for folks. Everyone told me they said, Comrade Trump you won’t be the vanguard of the revolution and they would laugh, the media laughed the democrats laughed, guess whose laughing now?”

    It's a show about the racial tension between humans and kaijin (people who can turn into animal monsters) and how the various characters fight that injustice. There's a cult with close ties to the Prime Minister that's looking for the means to create more kaijin, which Kamen Rider Black Sun wants to stop.

    It's basically a political drama with some superhero elements, like X-Men. I don't want to give too much away in case you want to check it out. It's on Amazon Prime
