Appearing in Godzilla in 1998

The incompetent mayor ‘Ebert’ and his secretary ‘Jin’

It was a parody of Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel, the most famous critic duo in America at the time.

Whether you look at the name or the image, this is not a reasonable suspicion, it is just a fact.

In the movie, they appear as incompetent idiots.

There was a lot of parody, including imitating the two critics’ signature thumbs up and thumbs down.

And here’s how critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert reacted after seeing this movie:

“They didn’t make a good movie, and even made a parody in a boring way.”

“If you took the trouble to release our parody character,

“Shouldn’t we have let the monster eat us or trample us?”

In fact, Roger Ebert said in his personal review that while watching a movie, he saw a self-parody character appear.

He wrote that he thought he would be eaten by a monster, but was disappointed that he survived.

For your information, Roger Ebert did not criticize Godzilla without knowing anything about monster movies.

While criticizing Godzilla, he said, ‘I was really excited to see the Gamera giant monster aerial battle recently made in Japan.

He is the person who asked, ‘Why are they making movies like this in America?’

The two critics said Godzilla director Roland Emmerich

Because they were criticized so much (Independence Day, Stargate was very harsh)

At the level of revenge

I thought they were releasing a parody character.

The conclusion is that the parody is also boring.
