This can be filed under "mildly interesting" but I thought I'd share.
Over the Christmas break, my 82 year old dad asked the family what their favorite movies were for 2024. I said Godzilla Minus One. Got a blank stare from everyone. My wife won't watch it even though I explained it's really a drama about relationships, taking responsibility, and what courage means that just happens to be set at the end of WW2, oh and has a giant monster in it. I can see them lose interest when I get to that part! Adding this to the list of movies only I seem to appreciate.
EDIT: As background, my dad is into a lot of kitsch and classic sci-fi and 50's monster movies. I just threw him off with an answer he wasn't expecting. :) We had just come back from the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures (in L.A.) and that's worth seeing BTW.
