    Monster/giant monster movies. I really miss horror movies where the monster was a real monster, not some twist where the monster was actually a metaphor for loss. Also giant monsters destroying cities dont get enough love these days.

      I genuinely loved 2014 Godzilla - to me, it was the right balance of building a believable undercurrent of discovery and not showing too much until it’s time. The airport scene - when a panicked terminal is running from a monster and explosions and then, boom - dwarfing all that enters a foot. Holding that shot, letting the scale sink in - really great.
