Predator: Badlands - coming November 7th, 2025
^ooooo.... all fun movies in their own right. King Kong Vs Godzilla is amazing! you need to see that one first out of all of them in my opinion.
YOU.....DUMBBELL!
Sci-Fi King25,
Wow. Big list. Exciting that you have so many ahead of you. Definitely should pick them up.
Godzilla 1998 and Godzilla Final Wars, yea I'm one of those 1 percenters(Its a word right?).
Godzilla Generations was a beautiful game! I loved the fact that there's a laser cannon inside of Dr. Serizawa's eyepatch.
Watching Creature Double Feature every Saturday afternoon with my dad in the late 70s/ early 80s.
What made me a goji fan was when 2014 came out,I loved it. The story of monsters vs other monsters and humanity's struggle in the middle. I started researching other Godzilla movies,because I had heard of Godzilla before 2014,but the legendary goji opened my eyes to its epic ness. Now I'm a hard core goji fan!
What made me a godzilla fan was how good the movies were I became in love with them and now their is a new Godzilla vs kong and I just can wait I'm a really big fan.and I know like everything about Godzilla.thats how big of a fan I am
Even though my earliest memory of Godzila was the 1998 film (even though I didn't know what Godzilla even was, or what the movie was even about [to me, it was just a giant dinosaur running around and destroying buildings]), what made me a Godzilla fan was one of two things: 1) the Fiat commercial promoting Godzilla 2014 (you know, the one where he eats the cars), and 2) watching Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster at camp (and I especially loved the part where he cannonballs into the ocean before the island exploded). Other than that, it was actually the trailers for Godzilla 2014 and the two things I mentioned above that made me like Godzilla (especially Zilla's design and the Baby Zilla's design as well, since I was more of a dinosaur fan at the time when I saw it).
I actually strangely enough, got into Godzilla by watching a top 10 Godzilla monsters list by watch mojo on YouTube.
"And now I Have become death....the destroyer of worlds"
well,I needed something to defeat my friends dragon in our little 2nd grade roleplay.He Just fit the bill!

I had heard of godzilla as a general term more as a size thing rather than anything else. So I eventually Looked Him Up and well this was godzilla to me for a while. Then I met BURNING GODZILLA. He was...My first godzilla toy,Movie and my first real understanding of the big G.
I remember my first form of Godzilla media was not a movie, in fact it was a game, it was Godzilla Unleashed for the Ps2 for that matter!
The games was not perfect by any means but it was still fun for me as a kid and so it made me the kaiju fan i am today!
What made me a fan was receiving these toys that had a button on their chest that would emit their noise.
Can anyone tell me the make/model/year that these are?
I was 5, and I had been messing around with the TV remote when I accidentally switched the channel to a Godzilla Marathon on Sci-Fi channel. Right away I was into it, the movie that was playing was Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla (1974). It was just amazing to me, that weekend, I probably watched 5 or 6 Godzilla films. Years later, Godzilla (2014) came out and my love for Godzilla returned, I bought the collectibles, even all of the Toho Co movies on DVD.
My dad was USAF Vietnam Air Rescue Pilot. We were stationed in Okinawa for 7 years. Arrived when I was 7 years old. Seen my first Godzilla movie, 1968, and I have been hooked ever since. I am in my 50's now, and I am only 8 DVD short of the complete collection. I hope the Director and Screenwriters remember: Godzilla is ALWAYS the HERO
Well sorta a weird story how I became a Godzilla fan, I always heard the name, due to my father being a construction worker and referencing some house he would work on as “Godzilla-sized!” And it always stuck with me. I always knew he was a dinosaur of some kind, a T-Rex and Stegosaurus hybrid I thought. So one day while me and my family were grocery shopping I found a cheap toy dinosaur and named it Godzilla. I few days later I watched my first Godzilla movie. “Godzilla vs. megaguirus”. And I can still remember walking into a K-Mart and finding my first official Godzilla toy (a Bandai Godzilla 2001)
I've always been into dinosaurs (in fact I remember the Christmas I was ten, getting a dictionary of dinosaurs from my parents) and it just evolved from there XD
Godzilla battle for the earth 1992 was on tv and was intrigued the moment I saw him blow atomic breath!
I jumped at every opportunity I had to see a new film.
I guess many people are accustom to buying DVD or BD and then play them on TV. Well, do you know how to create a disc yourself?
