Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 4 & 5 (FINAL PART! :D)

Once again we have very few pictures of, you know, Godzilla, and most of it is neo stuff. King Kong, Jiras, Manda, Godzuki, Gorosaurus, Anguirus, and and and...


Automatic 20. Unless somepony ships Godzilla with Zilla on the next page, we've already won.

http://dino-master.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-134511432?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=72 Green AND spiky! *vomits*

http://bayanghitam.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-106577074?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=76 Unless this is supposed to be one of those monsters from The Fairy and the Devil, I'm not sure what the hell this is even supposed to be. It's certainly not Godzilla... which is what it's named. So... I don't understand this at all.

http://banenacent.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Rampage-10633217?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=79 oooooh... so close. Maybe if you were such a big fan, you'd have, I don't know, WATCHED one of the damn movies? Yeah, Godzilla is grey. Try again.

http://tavaresg.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-159932202?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=78 I kinda want to give this a point... but it looks waaaay too constipated for me to feel comfortable with. Plus, we're done next page anyways, so it doesn't even matter.

http://pyrasterran.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-113509888?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=81 GAAAAAAY. =/

http://art-minion-andrew0.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-revamp-2-77328317?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=93 WHAT?! Why is he a fucking zombie?! Let's listen to some creator commentary, shall we?

"Was asked to do a re-design concept of Godzilla for some folks who wanna make a short series of movies. 

I was supposed to make him look seriously evil, and I think it turned out pretty well. ^_^"

Okay, so... "some folks" are going to do a short series of movies. Sounds like a couple of fans want to make some fan films, then? Okay, well, fan films don't usually have much of a budget, and so complete projects in the kaiju world are pretty rare, and when they do pop up, they are either unwatchable, over the top, or both. If he requires a "re-design," I'm guessing this is one of the over-the-top ones.

You can tell that these people won't ever finish their "series." In three years, we should have heard something by now. Also, judging by the notion that he's supposed to make Godzilla look "seriously evil," I'm guessing these people are all 11 years old.

And the Page 4 total brings us to 86. Even just a crossover would spoil our perfect run, so let's look at page 5:


There are only six pictures of Godzilla on this page. The rest are of Megaguiras, Vagnosaurus, Dagarlah, Hedorah, Rodan, Ookondoru, Battra, Megalon, Zilla, Moguera, Ganime, Mecha-King Ghidorah, and on and on.

Of those, only three are really +1 worthy. So that gives us 23 points and a grand total of 109, which means we have won the game in only 5 pages. I dare you to do it faster.

What IS notable is that how this little exercise has exposed how batshit insane the Zilla fandom is. Not only have we been coming across various pieces titled "Godzilla" that have only Zilla in them, but they also showed us, on our last page, exactly what the comic this is a response to was talking about:


Here we have Zilla sleeping next to a gigantic human female, which I'm sure is exactly the kind of sexual fetish that fuels the creepier stuff on dA, who ALSO happens to be from some other pre-existing series, although I'm not going to go out of my way to find out what.

Even if we counted this because it is a part of the greater Tohoverse, it would still be cancelled out by all the GOOD art of GOOD Toho monsters.

aaaaaand that concludes my first lp! Yay!

Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 3

whoo boy... this page was... lacking.


Beacuase I'm looking for the character Godzilla and not the whole damn media empire, I have to cut the majority of this page from review, since most of it is NOT of Godzilla. Rather, we get Bagorah, Orga, Zilla, Biollante, Baby Zilla, Titanosaurus, Destroyah, King Ghidorah, a cat for some reason, Gigan, and Bagan.

We still get our automatic 20 points though, which is good.

http://zwerg-im-bikini.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-12211628?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=48 This is just awful. In the category "Macabre & Horror." Plus, he's green. Nope.

http://zillamaster91.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Wars-Godzilla-80753866?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=49 And here I was thinking Matt was the only guy working for the comics in the fandom. Turns out EVERY swinging dick has done there fair share of "spiky" Godzilla.

GODDAMN dA! QUIT SELLING ME SHOES! My only weakness... after bullets...

http://ldn-rdnt.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Gojira-199322429?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=51 I don't like this guy. I WANTED to like him, since his "revisionings" are neither strictly realistic nor strictly spiky, and yet are still a wild departure from the original without needing to be... well, stupid. However, some things are taken too far. Also, he's religious, so no thanks.

I WOULD HAVE given this:
http://ldn-rdnt.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-GxU-216072796?q=gallery%3ALDN-RDNT%20randomize%3A1&qo=1 a point though. Too bad it didn't come up on the search... yet? We'll see.

http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-vs-Kiryu-in-SA-258182141?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=58 Jesus christ isn't there anyone ELSE on dA besides Matt? Whatever, it isn't neo so +1.

http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Navy-refurb-114024592?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=66 again, not neo. +1

http://bloodedemon.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-81826343?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=65 and this just isn't good. +0

Page 3 Total: 22

We did better than last time with no crossovers, and adding 22 to our previous total of 44 gives us 66. We are two pages from being done and proving... that Godzilla isn't Sonic, I guess.

Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 2

Before we begin, I want to say that there are two things I don't know how to do:
1. Make the main page cut off the blogs at a certain point so that it doesn't show 7 ENTIRE posts.
2. Make the whole blog not cut pictures of a certain size in half.


And with that, it's time for page 2!


Lets add our automatic 20 points and get going.


http://cyraptor.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-75898793?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=25 This guy rules SO HARD. +1


http://montygog.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-and-Fiends-61809296?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=26 this one is too cool. You could make the case that including King Kong is a crossover... you know, if you're stupid. +1


http://shinleejin.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-129174080?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=27 awesome pixelart. I'm gonna put this... on my face or something. Damn that's cool. +1


http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-vs-The-Transformers-183183988?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=30 You know how we are supposed to SUBTRACT points for crossovers? No, that doesn't make any sense, does it? Well, since it's good, and since the negatives are cumulative, I'm only giving this -4. See, Matt Frank is excellent when he applies himself... to not being a tool.


http://wakabee.deviantart.com/art/godzilla-155677041?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=32 this is just stupid. =/


http://olivier2046.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-81140640?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=33 He's green, what the fuck? No points.


http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Wars-tattoo-design-151487011?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=34 More Matt. More GOOD Matt. +1


http://photoanimeblue.deviantart.com/art/godzilla-83263266?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=35 photography... that ISN'T pretentious? For sure +1.


http://lord-cottonball.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-66765155?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=37 This is one of those "bad" crossovers. -5


http://unlobogris.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-25236760?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=38 Not only does this not look like Godzilla, but it doesn't even look like a real dinosaur, which is what this guy was going for. For proof, look at his mutant vampire Therizinosaur: http://unlobogris.deviantart.com/art/Therizinosaurus-cheloniformis-20603109?q=gallery%3Aunlobogris%20randomize%3A1&qo=1


Now, I'm no Therizinosaur savant or anything... but, uh, I'm pretty sure they weren't vampires. Seriously, I can't get over how horrible that picture is.


http://channandeller.deviantart.com/art/GODZILLA-75993447?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=39 AAAAAAA!!!! I'M OVER IT I'M OVER IT!!! GET IT THE FUCK AWAY!!!


Now is a good time to bring up that all the bad stuff we're seeing is either:
1. a bad photoshop
2. a "revisioning" as if Godzilla were in a Spawn comic
3. a "revisioning" of a "realistic" Godzilla that looks like no other dinosaur that has ever existed (and we WILL be seeing more of that, trust me)
4. People who have never actually seen Godzilla, and apparently think he's green.


Not exactly Sonic-fandom level yet. Moving on.


http://leggedfish.deviantart.com/art/Starry-Godzilla-55557121?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=41 I REALLY like this one. Does it count as a crossover? Eh, it's sort of specified that there be a fandom for it to count in the original rules, so no. +1


http://hellraptor.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-197734246?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=47 *shudders* Godzilla eaten by a snake, I guess. Listen to the description: "i felt of doin Godzilla and this is the result, i reshaped his head, gave him stripes to make him little different than the original, i think he could look something like this in the 2012 reboot."


I can't even... what? You want the next GINO to look like that? This is why I say that Godzilla is dead, because THIS is the fandom now. It is completely unrecognizable to me. All bow before Guilala, the NEW God of Wa... I mean King of the Monsters.


Same difference, though, right?


Page 2 Total: 20 + 6 - 9 = 17


and we had... 27 points last time? So that's 44. We are less than the first time I did this because I'm not counting the neo stuff. It's competent, yes, but it belongs in the category of Spawn comics and... well, I don't need the help. We are only missing out on 7 points anyways.


Next page... uh... tomgirl Godzilla in love with Yongarry? Don't fucking bet on it.

Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 1

I know this may shock some, but I've done some research, and, it turns out, Sonic isn't the only thing on the internet. Gasp in disbelief if you want, but that doesn't change facts, and the facts say that if you search for something you want to see, you will see THAT, and not, you know, Sonic being gay and also anthropomorphized and/or eating a pokemans. True story.

What sort of "research" did I do? Well, a short while ago I was digging through some files on this laptop when I found this:


haha... clever observation. Everything is homogenous! If only it were funny.

So, I played this game. But, in order to make it fair, I've decided that there are, in fact, winners, and after a certain point I wanted to know WHEN that was. Last time I tried this I got to 51 points before being bored, but I was aiming for 100.

So here are the revised rules:

1. Just like the original, pick ANY movie, tv show, or character. It specifically asks for your favorite one. Playing this more than once, you might think to even the odds by picking NOT Sonic. But if you're looking for a challenge, you could also pick Sonic.

2. 1 point for well done fan art. This is supposed to set up that good fan art represents a small an unimportant fraction of the majority of stuff you'll find, as the point value is small comparatively. Actually, it's the other way around in real life, where good fan art is so omnipresent that you can't count too much for it or you'll win 2 pages sooner.

3. This is where the original rules get fuzzy. It's supposed to be if you see a "human as an animal." Well folks, humans ARE animals. So, in order to have this make sense and preserve the original, possibly ignorantly stated intent, the new rule is -10 points for a character that wasn't human turned into one, or vice versa.

4. This one was originally subtract an additional 5 points if a work from rule #3 also contained a crossover or a transgendered character. Because this fellow doesn't seem to know how to speak English, I have to fucking translate for his fucking retarded ass: If you see an image that is a crossover lose 5 points. If you see the character with a gender that they didn't have originally, like, if the character was already a tomboy but is shown to be way more feminine, that's another -5. Rules #3 and #4 are cumulative.

5. The most controversial rule. It seems like this should be something like "minus something point for same sex pairing," but instead it ends up being the key to winning the game. So, if you come across a page that DOESN'T have your character gettin' gay, then it's 20 points. So, just to reiterate: automatic 20 points every page.

6. You win once you have 100 points.

To recap:
- no rule on who you can pick
- +1 for each good fan art
- -10 for humans turned non-human or vice versa
- -5 for crossover or alternate gender of original, negatives cumulative
- +20 for every page... with no gay stuff.
- 100 to win

LET'S PLAY!


See, because I like Godzilla, I'm immune to this game. Turns out that's not a joke or anything. You really need to have MUCH crazier fans than the faggots who actually like Zilla to qualify for the joke. However, the rules say I can pick anyone, so whatever.

- PAGE 01 -

Zoomed out. Here you can see that not only are G-fans NOT as crazy as Sonic fans, but a lot of them are great artists. +20

Also, NEW RULE #7: This should go without saying, but, if it ISN'T a picture of your character, it doesn't count towards your total. You will see a lot of Zilla, Space Godzilla, and Mechagodzilla, so that needs to be said.

Cool stuff:
http://kaijuverse.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-63921450?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=3
Frank Parr, I believe. For those of you breaking the rules, because Frank Parr is the best, this is worth 100 points. But, for me, +1.

http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Neo-SUPER-GODZILLA-139271511?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=6 Matt Frank's Neo shit. This is super godzilla. I'm not giving myself points for this darker and edgier "LOOK HOW MANY SPIKES" 90's comic book bullshit. Please, stick to the comic book covers Matt. This crap is sickening. *gets off of soap box.*

http://fritofrito.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-96763319?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=7 MY EYE! Oh GOD IT'S HORRIFYING! I'M SORRY MATT, I DIDN'T MEAN IT!!!

http://dusty-abell.deviantart.com/art/godzilla-30604800?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=8 That's more like it. +1
http://deathrider1551.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-122481977?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=9 Photoshop job. +1

Note: no, I'm not giving points for that Godzilla Neo shit. It's waaaaay too over the top.

http://sedani.deviantart.com/art/GODZILLA-43722546?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=12 ...why is he green? You've never SEEN Godzilla before, have you, sedani?

http://kaijuverse.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-head-65005350?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=13 +1
http://f3ar25.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-79498133?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=16 a... remake? of a Bob Eggleton piece. Eggleton is infallible, so +1.
http://cheungchungtat.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-01-185275549?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=18 It's easy to ignore the Michael Bay vibes when you realize that Godzilla HAS FUCKING WINGS!!! :D +1

http://ron-guyatt.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-207339397?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=20 Looks like the "Godzilla 3D" marquette. Oh wait... I guess I have to specify the one from the 80's. Love that racist lettering. No points for this crap.

http://gojigirl.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-s-hell-76291899?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=21 not only is this NOT a Godzilla/Doom crossover, but it's just a photoshop using Bob Eggleton's stuff. This isn't very good at all...

http://taddgalusha.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-104191479?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=23 very pretty. +1

Page 1 Total: 27

Will there be a next time? Probably. I'm cutting this up mostly to make it not just one long blog and also to make it more like an LP.
