Yeah, I can agree with that. I think the beard is a great addition to Kong's character. It gives him an old Wiseman feel to him and it shows that he has grown over the years in both his size and experience.

Maybe it could be connected to his electric powers. Not sure they will go down that route though seeing as they already did that in the original. I think they will either not add any powers to Kong or they will give him a new ability to use against Godzilla.

That's my final answer.

I'm not very interested in the stats or fantasy battles going on here. You know who wins the fantasy battles? Whoever is writing them. The stats given by filmmakers, Toho source books, art books, etc are cool for reference at all, but probably won't always be consistent with what's onscreen or what's needed for the story.

Example: Toho gave two different official heights for Heisei King Ghidorah. Verdict? Oh, well. It doesn't really affect anything.

I just don't see the point in nailing down exact numbers for made up creatures, nor do I really care too much most of the time.

They look awesome. I hope they don't go in obscurity like this forum has for some time.

First of all, @Gmkgoji Did you mean to put that banner in your other forum?

Second, this forum looks like it got out of hand, so let me help with putting it back on track by saying that Kong's beard might have something to do with how he might get a power-up. (Ever heard of Static Electricity?)

Of course, I understand that is (unfortunately) true, but this isn't about that. This is about his speed in general, regardless of plot-convenience. (Just like how the impact of him crashing into Boston should've been bigger than what it was, but it wasn't because of the human protagonists.) So generally speaking, while this is true, this forum isn't about that.

So if that's your final answer (unless you had one that is actually more "calculable"), then that's okay. Otherwise, do tell your other answer. (If you have one, that is.)

Xenotaris,
Japanese audiences couldn't tell--And that was the intended audience.

American born that can't obvious speak english properly 

Xenotaris,
Patterson was the daughter of an American senator, a born American citizen and a politician herself. She was an envoy working directly for the President so she was in a position to potentially become President in the future with all of these things working in her favor. At no point did she say, "I love politics, they're so simple." The entire point of the film is quite the opposite, so I'm not sure what form of air you're pulling that from.

He can run as fast as the screenplay needs him to.

Hmm... G.H. Gman was on yesterday.

Anyways, I THINK Godzilla can run at about 80 mph 

This is a forum to discuss how fast he is when he is not supercharged.

Also, has anybody still seen the Admins or moderators? I'm still waiting for their responses & answers.

Godzilla can run at 200 mph when super-charged.

Hello everyone. I know that I've been dormant on this topic for a while, but that's because I was just being patient and waiting for everyone's response like the nice person I am. So if anyone wants to comment their answer, then please do so. (Especially the Admins, moderators, and macumbalove. [If you want to, macumba. DO NOT BE MAD AT ME OR THEM, Kamoebas V.6! EVERYONE is included.] Still waiting on all of them, along with everyone else.) So yeah, that is all, and good luck, everyone. :)

If this is Part 2 of the debate, where's Part 1?

Also, surprising you would say that Godzilla would win over Kong considering you're a member of #TeamGhidorah. I would've thought that the opposite was true.

The Monsterverse movies are my favorite. BUUUUUT the Showa movies are still amazing. The Heisei era was really nice, the millenium movies with the exception of Final wars and GMK suck, Shin was fine, the anime movies were wasted potential. 

BR UH

I want Kong to win, but Godzilla will win.

And on cue, a mess. :P

Kamoebas V.6:

There really isn't a problem with not liking what's popular, it's the way people express that opinion which causes issues. The key thing to remember is that no matter what you do, everyone is going to like or dislike different things. You may disagree with them, but as long as it's not something obviously bad like if murdering people for fun is okay, it's fine for people to have different opinions. I'd bet you haven't been banned because everyone is willing to give you a second chance, but it's up to you to make the most of it. I'd recommend taking a couple second before posting a comment about something you dislike to see if what you're about to say will come off as rude or insulting to the people who do enjoy it. Again it's fine to not like what everyone else does, but the goal is to express your distaste for the thing itself, not the people you disagree with. We all like Godzilla to some extent or we wouldn't be here, just try to remember that.

For me when it comes to Godzilla movies its Monsterverse, then its Showa, then its Heisei, then its Millennium, then its Reiwa.

I dislike Shin Godzilla as well. Although the design of Shin Godzilla and its powers grew on me, However I still think Shin Godzilla should have been an enemy to a True Godzilla. 

Godzilla design aside, I really hate the political side of Shin Godzilla, the characters are boring and some of their ambitions and view points are cartoony. "I want to be president of United States!" jeez just because she is american doesn't mean every american wants to be president, I mean this happens a lot in Japanese media when regarding Americans and its freaking annoying. She sounds like an 8 year old. "I love politics, its so simple!" like really? Politics is simple, yeah right.

The only other Godzilla movie that I hate beside Shin Godzilla is Godzilla vs King Ghidorah, which I agree with Macumbalove 110%

oh christ 

i forgot i need to work on chapter 8

:0

Juts one more thing,those topics were...as i like to say,BULLSHIT!I don't want people to be on my side,i want them to be on the correct side,because i am always wrong!And i actually deserve to be banned but im not banned...its because im basically the worst user on Scified,i have been warned,i just don't like whats popular,i don't like the Heisei Godzilla,i freaking hate Shin Godzilla...and im sorry for the bad things i said,i usually don't ask questions because the answer will be an answer that i disagree with.But everyone has opinions!

Oh,now i understand...

Have you even read the last few comments? At least we have come to the point where Macumba is explaining his problems with the movies instead of him saying that he just hates everything. Clearly Gomi: Ninja Monster appreciates this approach and so do I because this is the way discussions should be had.

You seem to only want to fight fire with fire by just screaming "frick you too!" adding nothing to the debate. It clearly didn't work in the past as you made a full topic on him trying to get fans on your side, but instead, the topic got blocked for reasons which you were clearly warned for. Instead, try to fight fire with water and ask questions as to why he thinks of certain things.

Admittedly, the heisei era beam battles sucked, but I really liked most of the movies.

What,JUST WHAT?!?!?!

REGULAR DISCUSSION?!?!?!

That means that he hates everything!

Kamoebas V.6, please stop doing what you are doing because this does not help. We have finally come to a point where we are having an actual regular discussion with Macumba so please don't ruin this. Instead, try something like give your view of the Heisei movies or give reasons to why you disagree with his view of the movies.

And Macumba gets even dummer #NOONECARESABOUTMACUBALOVE

I wasn't actually expecting an individual analysis for each movie, but I mean that in a good way. This again is very comprehensive, which I again thank you for taking the time to type up. In turn I'll keep my mouth shut for the most part and just let you finish up, but I do have a couple short bits for the Heisei stuff.

GvM'92: I believe that may have been the intent at some point in production, but Godzilla was added to boost the appeal.

GvMG'93: I actually have a soft spot for these suits, but that is entirely due to playing a LOT of Destroy All Monsters Melee during my childhood.

GvD'95: Ah yes, a bad first experience can seriously mess with any future viewings. I agree Destoroyah is rather overhyped amongst G-fans, but I think the apocalyptic nature of his existence has to do more with the fact that he's the living embodiment of the only stuff stronger than Godzilla. So just as Godzilla is the personification of the dangers of atomic energy, Destoroyah is the fear of what will come next. But yes, some more scenes of actual devastation would have made that much more clear.

I'll post multiple times and try to answer as in depth as possible:

GvsGK '91: Boring movie, Time travel plot contrivance was stupid back then. G's design and the fight scenes were cool though.

GvsMothra '92: Again pretty dull; Godzilla seems like an afterthought; Should've been a Mothra solo movie vs Battra.

GvsMechaG '93: Terrible MechaG suit; Terrible Rodan suit. Very boring G vs Military scenes with surprised and shocked looking personnel, Like what do you think is going to happen?

Gvs SpaceG '94: Ridiculous Little G design, Even more ridiculous Space G design, Cumbersome, over-long fight scenes, Space G looks like an evil chandelier, Don't get me started on the Yakuza sub-plot.

GvsDestroyah: ......ok this one REALLY pissed me off when I first saw it. The first copy I saw was a bootleg camcorded theater copy that was filmed supposedly on opening night. 1) The script was effing terrible! Destroyah posed no real apocalyptic threat to humanity was barely threat to G or G junior. He had to get to his final form just to defeat G junior. After G junior's death G should've defeated Destroyah himself instead of the JSDF doing it; Really effing lame! And for the ultimate eff you to Destroyah being G junior being resurrected anyway. While I like the burning G suit and his death scene and junior's resurrection scene were well done, The movie was meh. I guess I had too high expectations for it, I was expecting there to be scenes ala smog monster where destroyah flew over and vaporized humans with micro oxygen. oh well. That's my Heisei analysis, Millenium will come tomorrow. I hope I answered in the way you hoped.

Alright, now we have a good baseline, thanks for answering so comprehensively. And cool, Terror is one of my favorites too. Now the follow up question, which I know will probably get messy, is why don't you like the majority of movies after the Showa era? Because I'm not going to try and force you to like movies you don't, but simply calling them garbage and leaving it at that comes across as a lot ruder than I think you're trying to be. Some explanations, or phrasing things a bit more subjectively, would probably go a long way in diffusing a lot of the ire you seem to stir up when you comment.

I love most of the Showa era; I don't like KKvsG, Raids again, or Godzilla's revenge. Mothra vs Godzilla is over-rated but still good, and Megalon is so bad it's good. The Heisei era I love G'84/85 and Biollante. The rest of the era is mediocre at best. The Millenium era is dog shit, The reiwa (i'm not sure if i'm spelling it right) is dog shit so far. And of course the Monsterverse is mediocre. Terror of Mechagodzilla and Monster zero are two of my all time favorites.

It's only been one of the most popular Godzilla websites since the early 2000s. So yes.

yeah earlier I was thinking of World of Godzilla which is Toho's new Cinematic Universe

They (TK) have TONS of kaiju fights!

Oh yeah, I know that place, it's my hotline for Neca Godzilla figure news.

cool website btw I just checked it out

ah

No, a website, sorta like scified.
