Ima be honest, the actors that represented the monster hunter world is great. The designs of the monsters looks like they were alive. But there seems to be a miss understanding. Diablos never stays in the sand for so long. They eat cactus and the black ones (females) are extremely territorial at mating season I think. In the game mhw they don’t just charge at people since they’re harmless to them. They became angry once they get attacked. Rathalos is also not unbeatable. Many hunters in the monster hunter world beaten a rathalos. Elder dragons are in another level, they are the one that can’t be killed easily both in game and in lore. I think the final boss should’ve been Kushala Daora since they were once used to create the ancient buildings. While the Rathalos should’ve just chased artemis to a village not in desert but in the forest. Just any village and there she learns how to hunt or something and wants to go back to her world. Truly a wasted potential and didn’t carry the charm of monster hunter. Not lore friendly too. Overall could’ve been A LOT BETTER, but it’s still a movie.

[@ShadoDiablosXD]

I do like this, a huge fail in the movie is the crap world building, it didn't feel like monster hunter, it didnt have that sense of just beauty in it. The movie also made the fight seem desperate and hopeless when thats not what monster hunter does, theres a culture in that game. Likewise about Kushala, this movie is more geared to the older gen monsters, you'd probably want Fatalis who straight up exists to kill mankind. And I get your defense of it "being a movie" but they didn't even try to make this about the culture, the lore, the world, THE HUNT, of what Monster Hunter truly is. I've played this game since 2010, and a decade later, loving the game to death still, this movie upset me so much when i watched it, althought i did like seeing Gore Magala show up, i love him XD fun Elder Dragon.

@@zakariamore1575 Gore Magala's scales are extremely small but in abundance,he uses his feelers(his appendages) to see with them. The scales can be inhaled by either monster or human. Humans typically arent that affected by said frenzy virus, and if having fought back against the monster, actually gain a power boos from it. Monsters are another story. Monsters, if having inhaled said scales will become infected by frenzy will become more aggressive, gain a purple aura, much like Gore Magala's and become stronger than a frenzyless counterpart. However, this comes at a cost as monsters with frenzy have their days numbered and soon die to the infection. There are some powerful monsters however that fight off the infection and thrive off the power granted by the virus. These are called Apex Monsters. Some of the most dangerous monsters ever encountered,, these things are not to be messed with. The only way to deal damage to them effectively is to sharpen your weapon with a specific stone(wystone). They gain new attacks, gain a power boost and damage increase. Another neat thing about the frenzy virus is that, if a Shagaru Magala(Gore's adult form) has spread it's scales far enough and infected monsters, those monsters that do die from the infection become hosts for the Shagaru's children. Much like xenomorphs, they burst out of their bodies to eat them. Shagaru frenzy is different to Gore's as this frenzy's main purpose is to propagate the species. Cool thing is if other Gore Magalas come in contact with a Shagaru's frenzy, it actually stops their molt(yes they molt their scales in order to reach shagaru status) half way and turns them into Chaotic Gore Magalas, which are Gores that are constantly in pain and have their days numbered.

Rathalos is actually semi-agressive. It only attacks if provoked or hungry, Its main rival is Anjanath, A large T-rex looking monster that has wings. But only uses them for intimidating predators, Due to it being far too heavy for the wings to lift. This movie is pretty accurate, Besides monster hunter being in a different dimension than simply an unexplored planet.

Nah, diablos just got tough af skin/armor that normal bullets would just bounce off of The sword was sharpened and made from another monster’s jaw, and is much heavier so it would be much easier to pierce into flesh Also canonically hunters have superhuman level strength, endurance, and stamina, making this process much easier. Most weapons are fairly large, giving them the weight necessary to break, pierce, slash, and sever. The bows for example are generally as large as the hunter and shoot arrows that can essentially be used as heavy spears or lances

Why is this movie that bad from the perspective of Monster Hunter fans? Cause it's not the MH world we all know and love, this is just another Resident Evil crapfest with the director's wife doing everything good and manage to survive the situations despite of having no real knowledge of the world. What we wanted was a story in the actual MH world, every game started with us, the player, getting our butts handed by a certain monster, leading us to train hard to grow stronger in gear and skill until we manage to overcome the monsters. For me the best plot they should have done was the Shagaru Magala story line, wich was hands down the best story ever done in the MH world, Hunter and Monster, toe to toe from the very begining of the game until the final match comes, both at the peak of their strength ready for the final stand.

Yep. ToHo is great with monster stuff, having roots with Godzilla. I distanced myself some to try and enjoy it a bit more, thinking it was going to be cheesy as hell and probably have some inconsistencies (Diablos on a constant rampage, Nerscylla apparently physically nocturnal? But those can be explained by weird storm thing and subspecies sorta.) Ultimately, I enjoyed the ride as it went through a hunting process to deal with Diablos. The quiet splendor or the oasis Then, everything changed when the Admiral showed up. Ron opened his mouth and shattered the language barrier that had genuinely been carrying the movie for me. Gone was my hope that it would maybe be okay. Instead, plot armor and casting choice ruined the bit of fun I had with the story, and is explained away with the MC not being the first without even a handwave. I hope that ToHo gets a different set of people to work with for another live action movie. The monsters looked great. It's just filled with old people who have the shallowest idea of MonHun at the helm.
