Honestly, it's still hilarious that Zilla got destroyed by Millennium Goji in 30 seconds.

7 for me. Was extremely fun and had some of the best visuals I've ever seen. If it had KotM music score it would be close to an 8. I just like Ghidorah as a better villain than the subpar vengeance plot idea.

The monster nesting idea definitely worked better with the MUTOs.

I feel like 98 had a pretty strong opening, the scenes where Zilla attacks the fishing boats and his arrival in New York are actually pretty well done, the movie starts to fall apart when he's fully revealed and you realize that it's not really Godzilla.

SasquaDash,
It fits Alien more. Not that it couldn't be transplanted into the Godzilla series. Godzilla '14 sorta brushed on it a bit.

Narratively though, the 1998 movie had a good thing going for the first act as it replayed a lot of the same, paranoid beats as the 1954 film--fishing boats being lost and the terrifying mystery of what's attacking seaworthy vessels. The movie just falls apart once the setting shifts to New York, then the 1990s blockbuster cliches take over.

I think the 1998 film has some interesting concepts. The idea of a giant monster using a city to nest and the threat that its offspring could proliferate out of control to the point where they could replace humanity as the dominant species is a pretty cool concept, it just didn't really fit Godzilla.

Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla is the only movie I think the 98 flick has a leg up on.

Others that flirt with the same kind of resilience against critical thinking include Godzilla vs. Megalon, Godzilla x Megaguirus, Godzilla Final Wars, Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong--But despite the poor quality of those titles, I can't say they're necessarily void of the irreverence and lackluster, creative output of Emmerich's movie.

As far as Godzilla movies go, I would say that All Monsters Attack, City on the Edge of Battle, and The Planet Eater are the worst (in my opinion).

All Monsters Attack has a really irritating main character (Ichiro is pretty much the definition of an annoying kid character) and the movie comes off as kind of lazy due to the fact that 95% of the monster scenes are made up of stock footage from previous (and in some cases, better) Godzilla films, the most notable thing in it was the fight with Gabara, but even then it's one of the weaker monster battles in the series. 

City on the Edge of Battle had one of the worst cases of false advertisement, the film was heavily marketed as a Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla movie, which never happened. Instead, the movie ended up having a really ridiculous plot point of Mechgodzilla turning itself into a city (because that makes sense). As dumb as the whole "Mechagodzilla City" idea was though, they could've done something unique and creative with it, but they didn't. Most of the final battle pretty much being a rehash of the one from Planet of the Monsters and for the most part the movie was just really boring in my opinion.

The Planet Eater managed to do something I didn't think was possible, it made a fight between Godzilla and King Ghidorah boring, if you could even call it a fight (I've never seen a monster fight try that hard to be boring). Most of the film's plot comes off as borderline pretentious, with it trying to act as if it's the most profound thing ever, while also saying some insanely stupid things (there's seriously a moment where they try to get existential about soup), the characters were either bland or annoying and it also rehashed plot points from City on the Edge of Battle (the "aliens turn out to be evil and betray the humans" plot could have been mildly shocking if they hadn't already used it in the previous movie). Honestly, this was one of the only times that I was genuinely annoyed after watching a Godzilla movie...

I wouldnt say any goji films are worse purely for the reason i wouldnt consider 98' a goji film.

Also, Madison Russell could cameo in a similar way to Houston Brooks in KOTM.

I think they could potentially show a brief moment where Monarch is tracking him as a way of updating the audience of his whereabouts and giving a summary of what he's been doing since the events of GvK.

I dont see any reason for Goji to show up at all. Maybe like stock footage like the ones used in KoTM

The movie might primarily focus on Kong, however Godzilla could make a small appearance for potential world building. If it's focused on Kong and takes place after GvK, then I assume that Kong's battle with Godzilla would be brought up in some way.

I know...but Team Kong just needs to stay put.  Also if it turns out to be a team-up, Wingard being included does not have me hopeful about GVK's success being repeated.

I honestly think its just set after GvK and is a Kong film. I mean ive never heard anything saying godzilla is for sure in it.

 

Also dont worry about the cast, this is completely normal for upcoming movies. We dont learn the whole cast as one.

Also, something I want to add is that the last thing we need is MORE human characters.  So this casting announcement...I think that we could be in for more bad human characters.

I just hope Ghidorah stays dead for a while the whole ''return of Ghidorah'' thing is getting pretty old, the only time I would like to see Ghidorah alive again is probably near the end of the monsterverse.

"Following on Godzilla: King of the Monsters' post-credits scene, Apex Cybernetics acquired the severed Ghidorah head from Alan Jonah at some point in the five years since that film's events"

 

Didnt what? The skull is from the post credit scene head that jonah bought, not the ghidorah heads that got incinerated. It makes sense, its not a plot hole.

So I love football and in all those managerial games where you have to take care of your football, I always used to have defensive strategies. The first time, I learned about Godzilla was due to its tremendous ability to sustain and weather the storm. Now, its one of my fav character in any universe.

One major qualm I never brought up about the movie is how it completely throws away all the interesting stuff of what MONARCH believed the Titans truly were.  Not that I don't dislike dumb fun and carnage, but they should've handled the continuity better.

HinikunaGoji,
To be fair, that still doesn't explain the second skull it was communicating with.

But hey, it's GvK.

I think you are confused. Apex didn't get the head from the head ghidorah after godzilla killed him. The got the head in the ocean which godzilla tore off, and ghidorah regenerated a new one. In the KoTM post creodt scene we see alan jonah buy that head.

And there we go. All the Janus Films Toho kaiju titles. (Minus King Kong vs. Godzilla.)
