Godzilla/Cloverfield Sadness

" a monster is any fictional creature, usually found in legends or horror fiction, that is somewhat hideous and may produce physical harm or mental fear by either its appearance or its actions. The word "monster" derives from Latin monstrum, an aberrant occurrence, usually biological, that was taken as a sign that something was wrong within the natural order."


I watched Godzilla yesterday and at the end of it i had a wee tear in my eye, poor Godzilla missiled down by Americans. How very American. Very much like Cloverfield which i am watching now. Now my rant is pretty much aimed at the American cinema goers. You know damn well in deep south america when Godzilla and the Cloverfield monster was killed they probably chanted USA, USA, USA. 


Cloverfield monster was essentially looking for his mother and essentially running around the city lost and confused, very much like the Americans going into war. Godzilla reacted like any other parent if their children were killed. Its a weird thing to get annoyed about i know, its the worlds attitude towards something they dont understand. Straight away it becomes a target. 


Bloody Yanks!!!!!!
