The Suitmation or CGI

I personally prefer suits but only for its time. I don't mind CGI and I am happy that the new movie is a CGI Godzilla as long as it looks good and realistic. If TOHO decides to make more movies I think they should do CGI Godzilla movies because suits are so outdated. But then again TOHO isn't very good at CGI so maybe they should stick to wearing suits but like you said, maybe if they don't rush the damn movie in post production and get the help from some good VFX artists, they could make some pretty sweet CGI effects for a Godzilla film. I only like CGI when it's done well. If it is done crappy, then practical effects are they way to go.

I remember reading that even the 1998 TriStar Zilla had a suit form used for a few scenes, despite being mostly a CGI monster. Below is one of a few pics I've found that shows the suit in question...

...so the 2014 American Godzilla could easily be the same deal, a lot of its scenes are CGI but a couple would be the suit.

I'm fine with CGI. I'll always love practical effects, and suitimation could be used too, but for any scenes that display a lot of movement CGI needs to be used.

really they were going to use motion capture but decided not to because it looked too much like 'am man in a rubber suit', if they wouldnt use motion capture becuas it looked like suitmation, i doubt they used a suit, also i thought roland emmerich didnt like suitmation.

TRUE AMERICAN GODZILLA I own a book "Making of Godzilla" from 1998. It has many pictures showing the suit. 

Suitmation works in the older movies.

I personally prefer the versatility and overall look of CGI, but I still have the utmost respect for those that can make suitmation look good like Toho. Still, if they begin making movies again, I really hope they take their time and imput some CGI into the mix, for a more fluidly moving Godzilla. On the topic of Toho making monster movies in the future, I really hope they make something for Mothra like her movies in the 80's/90's (can't remember which specifically), as those were a big part of my childhood alongside Godzilla. :)

i do respect the suits, but it is outdated, i remember reading an article that was about sauitmation and cgi, it tells that things like ultraman is gearing more towards cgi and that Eiji Tsuburaya would've gone towards cgi if he were alive (stated by someone invloved in Tsburaya studios)
