Hm, I guess the suit is a big departure from the Heisei era's designs, but after '98? I don't think I'd be complaining too much. Of course I was one of the faster ones to warm up to Shin's design, so it might just be me.

Godzilla 98 was a fantastic movie! Admit it- we all love a good food fight every once in a while! 

If you don't like '98, then maybe you just have a closed mind and that says more about you than the franchise.

probably due to Godzilla 2000 having purple crystaline jagged spikes instead of the white-black maple-leaf spikes?

Backtrack a second, what was so wrong with Godzilla 2000? It's on the slow side at times and the CGI's not great, but how was that movie on the level of '14 and Shin?

Of course I don't want humanity to go extinct in real-life, I am human after all and so our friends and families. 

I just tired that in every fiction humans as both species and as a clade (to include those "so called non-human" humans) have plot armor on. 

JurassicKaiju14 That is part of the point. It is uncomfortable and scary. If Godzilla is akin to a force of nature, we know that nature doesn't care about well intentioned individuals- it just reacts and responds while seeking balance. 

You don't actually want to see that happen though, right? Like, this is just a discussion for a potential plot element, right?

What about the common everyday people who don't really want to cause trouble? Are they guilty by association?

You, me and every body else. No exceptions. 

Seems to put us all on equal footing that way and realize we need to find a way to work things out together. It might sound sappy but is probably true.

G.H. (Gman)

What about the oratio?

I always dislike the humans are special trope and humans always manage to survive after alien/zombie/robot/kaiju incursion why not take the extra step and off the entire clade? No more humans, no more posthumans, and no more transhumans. I mean extinction is a very natural part of evolution and nothing lasts forever, so why should humans? The planet earth is going to be stripped of life in 1 billion years, so everything will eventually become extinct

@JurassicKaiju Extinction isn’t a new concept in cautionary tales, but the Godzilla films have always been about, at least for me, rebirth and redemption after punishment. So I personally don’t think that would fit. But looking back on it, Extinction stories can be effective if done well.

I don't really like this idea. What about the common everyday people who don't really want to cause trouble? Are they guilty by association?

Besides, all my best friends are humans!

I barely played the first God of War game, so I can't say yay or nay on its community united

You know, I would actually say that one of the least toxic fanbases that I've seen (from what I have seen) is the God of War fanbase. Anybody concur or object? If so, please state it, as I have no qualms with your criticism whatsoever, negative or positive.

Elder Scrolls is probably (or at least when talking about the lore and not the game mechanics) is one of the few non-toxic communities

Hedorah earth.

Just about any movie can split a fan base. Got in a pretty toxic debate with somebody over a video game about the movies. He literally started disliking people for liking anime for no reason than the Godzilla anime was bad. Hell, he even "accused" me of being an anime fan since I said the first one was ok (not really too much of an anime fan tbh. I like some, but definitely nowhere near like anime as I do Godzilla or JP and the such. Death Note and DBZ are awesome though). He literally just insta signed off after accusing me of not being a Godzilla fan at all after calling out his mistake of saying that there are 28 Heisei movies (he probably thought Showa and Millenium were part of Heisei lol). Point is, we literally got into a toxic argument of why I ranked each era a certain way, anime fans, and why I don't consider GVK as a good measurement of quality for the Monsterverse because, you know, IT ISN'T OUT YET. Honestly, sometimes I feel like this is one of the last non-toxic places on Earth.

Godzilla '98 pissed off the fanbase. Godzilla 2000 split the fanbase about as much as Godzilla '14, Shin Godzilla, etc. The Kiryu Saga split the fanbase. Final Wars enraged and split the fanbase...

This is nothing new guys. In some cases it's tame in comparison to the death threats sent to a certain producer over Godzilla 2000 for being the new "GINO".

wait Godzilla 2014 and Shin Godzilla already splited the fanbase

Pfft... KOTM definitely didn't split us.... yeah... definitely didn't split us a little... (chuckles nervously)

It was because everyone realized that it was bad, even the actual fans of the Anime trilogy. But I believe that KOTM 2019 and GvK will be the movies to make the fanbase toxic, seeing as KOTM 2019 already started to split the fanbase.

I honestly, truly have no idea how it got to that point. It's the most random part of the whole thing, and it's honestly my favorite.

Ah yes. Bacon place.

my guess is that we aren't as stoopid as the other fanbases.

I am surprised that our fanbase didn't become toxic after the Anime trilogy. A lot of franchises like Harry Potter, Star Wars, Terminator or DC became toxic after their Directors, writers or producers turned on the fanbase and the Anime trilogy certainly fits that bill.

Dogs are cool. :)

But back to Godzilla. Unless it is something like Final Wars, 2014, or even KOTM 2019, there isn't one other fanbase where the majority of fans, old and new, are calm enough to respect the opinions of other fans, regardless of favorites.

This was cool. And the funniest part (if it was taken out of context) was "ilene chen and rick stanton predicted that prehistoric serpents and wolves on fire will soon undergo a thermonuclear phase that will make him enter a car and look for a giant glowing blue thermonuclear bacon place." Thus confirming Godzilla lives in the land of the bacon.

Lol ;)

disregarding the Godzilla Power Hour Goji

I somehow got an abundance of overcooked things in this. xD

rotten tomatoes are now overcooked tomatoes

JurassicKaiju14,
No, I'd rather the Pacific Rim universe not be impeded by the Monsterverse.

Not a complete Pacific rim crossover just the closest thing to it go to the link and you will see what it means.

Am I the only one who actually doesn't want a legitimate Godzilla/Pacific Rim crossover? I mean, I think it could be a great concept for fan works, but as an official event? I'm not really too keen on that to be honest.

Welcome outlander (in a Dunmer voice)

Well that was scarily accurate and hilarious at the same time lol

Hey, Titan! Glad to finally be here. :)

This is ridicoulously funny.

MARK IS LIVING INSIDE SHEDS.

Just a heads up, I may or may not have accidentally double-posted this. So if you see a second one of the same topic, just ignore it. Apologies for the potential inconvenience.

Oh no, this is very nice and all. I've never had a dog before either, and this sounds REALLY fun for you.

I apologize for keep going on about her, it’s just so new for me I’ve never had a dog before.
