Love Quote by Liam Hemsworth

Hemsworth’s love letter to New York lands because it’s not really about New York. It’s about New York-as-screen: a city he experiences first through cinema, then through his own body standing in it. The setup is almost disarmingly simple - “so many movies” - but it quietly admits the modern condition of travel: we arrive with preloaded references, measuring reality against the shots that trained our eyes.

The Godzilla image does a lot of work. It’s playful, sure, but it also reveals how scale functions in Manhattan: the skyline is engineered to make you feel small, and pop culture supplies the language to process that vertigo. Hemsworth doesn’t reach for a poet’s metaphor; he reaches for a monster movie because that’s the shared, instantly legible shorthand of spectacle. New York’s grandeur becomes approachable when you frame it as a scene you already know how to watch.

There’s actorly subtext here, too. For performers, cities like New York aren’t just places; they’re sets saturated with myth. Saying “Godzilla should be climbing up them” is a way of acknowledging the city’s perpetual readiness for drama, its habit of turning everyday looking-up into a cinematic moment. It’s tourism and vocation collapsing into the same instinct: to translate awe into images, to make the overwhelming feel narratively manageable.

Even the “or something” at the end matters. It undercuts any grand pronouncement, keeping the tone boyish and unpretentious - a casual shrug that signals, I’m not performing sophistication; I’m confessing a genuine, movie-trained wonder.
