it should also be nominated for the most confusing show that only smart people will understand it of the year award.

Sorry I forgot about Mothra vs Godzilla
Love that it’s nominated for this.
Science.
Even when the characters don't work, I don't think having characters in a kaiju film ever feels forced--In fact it feels very natural. These stories are by and large about how people react to a world inhabited by monsters and what that means for them. That's about 90% of what the genre is right there.
they felt a lot more natural in Singular Point, and I’m not sure I would describe it as forced.
I loved the first scene in KOTM
sonictiger,
Official English Toho press release:
Xenotaris,
Mothra vs. Godzilla was the fight's aftermath.
I'm excited based solely on the creative team behind it, but I really think should've gone the enhanced CG suitmation route on this one. I'm glad they've been working on the effects this past year, but it's not quite impressing like Shin Godzilla did.
It's also going to have to go a long way to beat out Ultraman: The Next, which was essentially the last "adult" Ultra reboot. That film still tops a lot of kaiju movies today.
So nobody won still since Godzilla returned anyway, you just proved my point.
Listen, human characters feel rather forced and unjustified these days. The only characters that I felt had a justified reason to show up were the Brodys and the Russells and even then they were largely unneeded.
Well what else can I say but Ok
But seriously I’m excited.
monsterzero9 it's supposed to promote stuff, but you're right.
I love all of the Godzilla suits. If I had to pick one, it'd probably be one of the Monsterverse/ legendary era Godzillas. They have such great details and they look so realistic!
what exactly does this have to do with godzilla?

That's tokyo S.O.S mothra.. I think
Even though the movies mostly focus on kaijus, the human characters still count as well. There are a few movies in which a human helps Godzilla defeat a kaiju. An example is Godzilla (2014). It would either be a short, mini movie or Godzilla would've been killed.
HinikunaGoji,
I guess if it's a Disney situation and they talk and sing. Otherwise, the furthest this concept could get as a viable storytelling piece is a short.
Reign of Fire
I've seen that movie when it first came out in theaters
Exactly.
You could have a kaiju movie without humans and having it focus on the monsters and anthropomorphizing them.
It depends on what story you want to tell.
Ummmm depends if they are crucial to the plot like the Fords from 2014 or Emiko and Serizawa from the 1954 original

Yes but it was Kong that surfaced, Godzilla was no where in sight, his fate was unknown until the obvious sequel Ghidorah: The Three Headed Monster
So I was looking for examples of a fight where a reptile beats an ape...
Does this count?
But it was technically a draw, Godzilla probably swam back to his lair and Kong headed back to land. So no real winner.
Kong won last time in the 1962 movie
Even if it was obvious, the monke should've won.
Tokyo SOS no mosura, is better grammatically
I would post the written form but The website doesn’t like non English characters, and I can’t cheat the system.
