It would be so incredibly easy to shut up about trans people

It was like 4 or 5 specials in a row too. He was a surprise opener when I saw Jon Mulaney last year and he went on another trans rant there. Very disappointing.

Probably depends on the venue. But openers are usually only 5-15 min or so anyway, depending on how many and how the show is structured. Chappelle was disappointing, but not enough to ruin the rest of the show. I was happy to stay for Jon Mulaney’s set which was fantastic.

I’m going today! I’m a huge Godzilla fan. Would you say it’s on par with Shin Godzilla?

Lol, I just noticed your other comment. Thanks for responding to this one as well! Good to hear!

Loved it. Maybe even more than Shin, but I think being a veteran with PTSD let me connect to this story a lot. I couldn’t help but feel for Koichi, with how he was fighting his own war internally. Hit very close to home. When he got pushed into the alley, I just felt like “how much more survivors guilt can this guy have”. And it hit me hard when he was asked if his war was finally over.

But as far as Godzilla goes, loved his design. He was so menacing in this. Not an anti-hero, nor a “good guy”. He was a monster just destroying everything. The boat chase scene, he just looked evil. The atomic breath design was a highlight and the explosions that it made were incredible.

The cinematography was so well done, especially the 3rd act. The whole movie had very much an anime feel IMO. Lots of Attack on Titan vibes, especially with how Godzilla moved. I loved the boat captain, he felt the most like an anime character to me.

If you’re a Godzilla fan at all, you’ll enjoy it.

Just got back and I loved it. I put more thoughts in another comment.
