The Oxygen Destroyer

Gman- i understand your point and your statement but, if Gojira 54 isnt a evil being, why did he kill the woman with the baby? And blow and aim a direct atomic breath at those people in the streets? If thats not evil, i am not sure what is.

Animals don't defirantaite between young and old, especially with prey or Competition, Lions, Hyenas, and Cheateas kill eachothersacting on baby's to avoid competition, and many predators prefer easy kills by atacking young or sick prey, so Godzilla is just on instinct, besides killing a kid is not so difrent than he killing anithing else, even in the new movie he killed some kids

JRR more or less nailed it. There is no shot in the film that conveys Godzilla was specifically going after the woman and her children. In fact there's no shot to confirm he actually killed them. It's insinuated at best.

And Godzilla seemed to be on a violent territorial rampage. One might assume that the bombings in the ocean earlier in the film beckoned him to attack Tokyo. There's nothing really to allude to that either, but it's about more sound reasoning than assuming he was an evil sentient being intentionally trying to murder people. Even the GMK Godzilla's attacks were largely incidental despite coincidentally coming back for prior victims. That's just not what any Godzilla incarnation is about and largely misses the point.

JRR- when did he kill kids?

Also all Godzilla's kill people, but 54, atleast i feel actually saw the humans, and blasted them in cold blood.

Like Dino's wouldn't kill in cold blood?

I happen to think that, while terrifying, Godzilla in the 1954 film was simply on a rampage fueled by his extremely rude atomic awakening. If I'm not mistaken (and please correct me if I'm wrong) Godzilla's appearance is meant to convey that he was actually burned by the atom bomb that roused him. Thus, one can assume two things. One, he's in a great deal of pain. Two, he's enraged by his misery and is out on the warpath to end what's caused him pain. I doubt Godzilla had it in for anybody in particular; he was just tearing down the big, noisy, flashy, lit-up forest from which the painful fire that burned him originated. Of course, this is simply my assessment of the situation. Godzilla might have have an underwater "to kill" list lined by the names of several choice individuals - the over-zealous reporter and the woman with her children being somewhere at the mid-point. Steve Martin never actually appeared on the list as he wasn't present for the events until after the fact. ;)

you all prove very interesting points. i can't believe my discussion made it to 40 replies overnight!

also. it's kind of our own 'would you rather' I guess I wasn't really thinking straight when I typed it. NEVERTHELESS a question is still a question no matter if it's based off of some other situation or not.
