Should Godzilla die in Godzilla 2014?

No, and considering Gareth Edwards has already planned a sequeal it seems highly unlikely(unless he's going the Godzilla Raids Again route which is also unlikely). Killing off Godzilla in this first reboot would pretty much defeat the perpous of building him up as an unstoppable force of nature. And for that matter, there should be nothing even resembling the oxygen destrpoyer. That concept may have worked in 1954 but it wouldn't work in a monster film that is trying to be "real". Like incredible fulk, I too wish to see an ending similar to G 2000, or at the very least have Godzilla be prevented from causing more destruction for a time by burying him under an ice-cap or something.

"I don't know about anybody else, but I can't remember any movie coming out of Hollywood that shows the American military getting defeated...from what I understand, Hollywood is not even allowed to make a movie of that nature" No offence, but that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard of. Clearly you haven't watched many films since there have been already many exceptions to that made up rule. Hell, even if it were true then there should also be a law against the american law enforcement looking like total morons while getting completely massacred by some gun-toting badass which has also happened in many hollywood films.

The first Godzilla's supposed to represent punishment for mankind's selfishness. His death came from an act of human selflessness to cancel out years of sin. Dr.Serizawa in that movie is sort of the Jesus of the nuclear age. Godzilla we know and love is the result of years of bromanticizing movies. If they want to bring the 1954 version of Godzilla back they need to strike fear into hearts. Bring back the destitute and make us feel that killing him is an act of righteous cleansing. So I want to see an epic kamikaze death of three gods; the killer, the savior, and the weapons of mass destruction. Closing the trinity with crucifixion. Ending all three gods.

I don't think that they will be killing Godzilla in this, or at least not permanently, and I hope and pray I am right about that. However, I'm not against the oxygen destroyer, or at least something analogous to it. Some type of super destructive weapon we use to halt/deter Godzilla maybe? whatever it does doesn't matter to me very much, as long as it doesn't kill him, as long as it opens the door for Destroyah to appear in a sequel.
