Send him to North Korea and make him take a big dump on their leader.

Yes, that's really what I would do.

G. H. (Gman)Godzilla ForumWhich is the worse of them all: Son of Godzilla, All Monsters Attack, Godzilla vs Hedorah or Megalon?

Durp004, you actually make some decent points this time around, but you're still missing the forrest for the trees. By a lot. This is exactly what I'm talking about. Fans are so fixated on what it doesn't have that they don't see what it does have:The first time Ichiro imagines Godzilla fighting is as all stock footage, very true. Does it add to the initial development of Ichiro? In a way it does. Ichiro's first is merely establishing to the audience what is going on: He's dreaming. Could it have been segwayed into his arc? Perhaps, but the screenwriters felt that breaking it up would be a good opportunity to present other issues in his life: His overworking mother.And on the topic of stock footage, it's never stated in the film whether this story takes place in the Godizlla universe or ours. It could just be he's remembering the fights from movies he's watched. And if it does take place in the Godzilla series proper, he could just be remembering prior battles that were reported. Does it excuse the stock footage on a technical level? No, but sense it's a dream it's a little easier to buy.

And while Godzilla was grooming Minya to stand up for himself against Gabara, he's also not going to let anything happen to his own son-- at least in Ichiro's mind. Godzilla took over the battle against Gabara once Minya had finally proven himself. I don't see how that's contradictory in any way.

As for the end, yes, honking the horn was a bit much, but I want to point out he did apologize after the fact. In the end it really was just a harmless prank to show he was no longer afraid. I too think it could've been written and handled better in the film, but that still pales in comparison to the larger, more important victories:

He outwitted two robbers who were clear represenatives of desperation during the depression. Standing up to bullies is a little too direct of a message. What really happened is the kid learned to survive on his own in a time where he couldn't turn to his mother or father. After surviving a bout with two criminals don't you think he'd be a changed person? Anyone would in that situation: No parents to guide you. Everyone's worried about money. And your eight years old learning to fend for yourself.

The fact that his guidance through Godzilla/Minya is inconsistant and jumbled speaks on various levels: 1) It's not really Godzilla/Minya that's guiding him is it? It's himself. They're dreams he concocted as a defense mechanism. 2) You're right. In the grand scheme they don't matter very much. As I said, this isn't much of a Godzilla movie. He's simply used as a hook for more important dramatic points that are occuring in Ichiro's world.

If you take Godzilla out of this movie, you still have a great story. It's slightly flawed, but extremely well positioned and very bittersweet. I think "sending a message" is a little too niave to say about 90% of the movies. The story it's telling is more poigant than it is preachy and aims not to be a blueprint against bullies, but rather a snapshot of growing up in late 60s/70s Tokyo as a middle class young boy.

I'd go around the world to spread the glorious words of our Godzilla. And then threaten Godzilla's nuclear fury on the heretics!

GODZILLA HIMSELFGodzilla ForumWhy Godzilla is so heavy?

godzilla is ridiculously strong and dense, the density of his muscle and bone are the biggest contributers to his toughness, oh, and godzilla has been much heavier than that in some movies!

Secretly teach him to play dead and repeatedly kill him in every major city that he'd attack. Be like, "Yeah I punched Godzilla to death, come at me bro."

TheGMan123Godzilla ForumWhy Godzilla is so heavy?

Although some might try and chock it up as Toho not having a good grasp on measuring mass for their Kaiju, you have to remember that the larger an animal gets, the larger it becomes in overall mass exponentially, thus meaning it gets heavier overall as it keeps getting bigger and bigger. Factor in the fact that a Kaiju-sized creature is composed of denser and more heavy-set materials than an ordinary animal, and that further multiplies its mass to be proportionately larger than normal. The more realistic weights of the Kaiju in Pacific Rim, if you think about it, isn't as realistic for those sizes as some may believe.

Gojira2KGodzilla ForumWhich is the worse of them all: Son of Godzilla, All Monsters Attack, Godzilla vs Hedorah or Megalon?

I love all Godzilla movies, but there are some that are better than others and some that are worse than others. From the list you have given here I would have to say Godzilla's Revenge. Yes it had a great moral to it, standing up to your bullies, but to me it didn't exactly qualify as a Godzilla movie to me, even though Godzilla featured in it. He was only a figment of the kids imagination, he wasn't really there. He wasn't attacking a city, fighting some gigantic monster who threatens to destroy the world, and Gabara was not the best design. Don't get me wrong here, he is not the worst one, I think the electric hand thing was pretty cool, and I have seen worse monster designs. He just in my mind couldn't pose a threat to Godzilla, he was only a threat to Minilla, who still kicked his butt. A real Godzilla movie to me is were Godzilla has to stop a giant monster or a swarm of monsters so they don't destroy Earth or him. Any way this my opinion on this although the ones you picked out are also some of the bad ones.

If you watch the scene closely it seems like the thing that hits the bridge comes from above. There's also the fact that if it was walking under the bridge it wouldn't make sense for the soldier to leap off a bridge that is for the most part above a monster as opposed to jumping off to avoid an attack from above
