I know that its meant for a Japanese audience but even if I were Japanese I think it would still have broken my suspension of disbelief. Especially if she wanted to be president of the United States
Xenotaris,
Japanese speaking audiences (who were the target audience) likely didn't notice how bad her English was. In any case, Ishihara was still nominated for best actress for the film.
This reminds me of the character Gus from Breaking Bad. In America the actor was highly praised for his performance as a clean cut, Latino drug lord. In Mexico, however, he was heavily criticized for his accent and acting.
Perspective is key. Breaking Bad was made for us, not Mexico. Just like Shin Godzilla was made for the Japanese, not America.
Additionally, she's hardly the first actor in the series with poor English: King Kong vs. Godzilla, War of the Gargantuas, The Return of Godzilla, Godzilla vs. Biollante, Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah, Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II, Gamera 2: The advent of Legion, Godzilla: Final Wars... I'm sure I could go on.
Also I might have to replace Godzilla vs King Ghidorah with Shin Godzilla as the worst (in my honest opinion) godzilla movie. Like geeze try better at imitating americans for your american character or hire a Japanese American actress to play the part!
well anyways, the thing I disliked about Godzilla vs King Ghidorah was a number of creative Uh-ohs.
1. Mecha-Ghidorah's design was hideous. Its like they wanted to do a mechagodzilla treat for ghidorah but gave up half-way through.
2. That awkward Android chase scene. Brain Bleach will never get that out of my head.
3. The unnecessary need to make American troops dumb, regardless of your opinion about the country that is just a low brow thing to do.
4. The need to have one of the troops being related to Steven Spielberg and his commanding officer being able to see the future that his son will make a dinosaur movie.
5. The Time Travel plot doesn't make any sense.
Never mind- it was a (bad) joke.
DK: I mean aren't bad and worse synonyms?
Also far fetch for a Godzilla movie? I mean with giant monsters (Kaiju genre), aliens (The ghidorahs, the xiliens, and the other human aliens), mix-match hybrids (Kaiju genre), and living gods abound (King Caesar and Mothra), how is Space Godzilla far fetch for a godzilla movie? He is an alien, mix-match hybrid, and a godlike giant monster.
Seems to me Space Godzilla fits right at home in that verse.
Xenotaris Giant creatures coming from the ocean depths or flying around causing destruction is one thing, but coming from outer space is just beyond the pale :D
Godzilla 1998, taped it from TV
Space Godzilla was probably the worst but I wouldn't call it bad- it was just so far fetched for a Godzilla movie imo.
The first one I bought was 1998 on VHS although I had seen several movies on Saturday mornings as a kid in the '70s.

I dunno. I usually make myself sadder lol
Gonna watch one or two of your suggestions tomorrow. Thanks for them.
hi everyone! my name's kevin and i love me a good godzilla movie. my boyfriend got me into godzilla years ago, we are both huge fans now! king ghidorah is my favorite, but mothra is a close second :+) im here mostly to try and expand my figure/toy collection.
sorry to Necro a post like this, but i have been on the hunt for this plush: but i can't find ANY information about it. I just came across this picture on tumblr the other day, and i can't stop thinking about ... him

i have a modest ghidorah collection and this boy would make a great addition. I have scoured my available sources and the internet to the best of ability... but can't seem to find it. Anyone know?
All Monsters Attack. Don't laugh. Try it.
If nostalgia outweighs sadness for you like it does for me, the OG one. If not... Terror Of Mechagodzilla...
Probably Destroy All Monsters.
I like it for one reason,they have Kamata-Kun in it.
I want the Mothra mask! I could scare my bothers with that XD
Kamoebas V6: I cant keep them all straight cause their are too many threads on this forum sorry. But I do like this one.
Kamoebad V.6 I think its a great topic
She looks nice in the movie,but in this picture,im saying its gotta be the Insect Monster from The Mist.
WHAT THE?!?!?!?!?
That's encouraging, I'd rather he stay the same personally, though I'm guessing any new toys will be all about the battle damage if that's the case.
Based on the original leaked version, I'd say he'll be retaining his 2019 design. They have the model for it, and there's really no need to change it up again, especially since it got such a positive reception.
When your parents don't let you go to Godzilla 2:
No? Maybe? Hard to tell with the words in front. His neck also looks thicker to me, but it could just be we're seeing him from an odd angle and it's messing with us.
Ooh, this is fun.
Technically my brother owned the '98 one on DVD first, but for me personally it was Ghidorah: The Three-Headed Monster and Godzilla Vs. Megalon on a "Monsters Triple Feature" VHS from some company called Silver Screen Video. Since it was a second-hand store find, Ghidorah had some bad static and fuzz during the middle, but I watched the heck out of Megalon.
(BTW the third movie was some 1942 horror flick called Killer Bat, which I have yet to watch to this day)
Does Godzilla have new spines on the banner
When your crazy ex FaceTimes you:

When Kong finds out about Godzilla:

Godzilla 1985 on VHS.
Ummm...Kong won in both the Japanese and American versions. There will be a winner and then they will team up at the end of the movie.
The first Godzilla movie I can remember seeing as a kid was King Kong Vs. Godzilla back when it aired on TV a lot during the 80's. I have been hooked ever since. Not sure exactly what it was that drew me in. Before that I had loved Kong having seen the 1970's King Kong on TV, but after seeing Godzilla for the first time I knew who the true king was. I was introduced to it by my father, now I have introduced my son, so the fandom is in its third generation.
Not bad, IME.
