Godzilla 2014 vs. Godzilla Resurgence official debate thread

Chris
AdminSpaceGodzillaApril 16, 2016This thread will act as a debate platform for fans to discuss the differences and competition between Legendary's Godzilla and Toho's Shin-Gojira from Godzilla Resurgence.
We can separate the debate into 3 main categories:
Design and Concept
Which Godzilla has the better design? Which influential concepts did the King of the Monsters the most justice?
Abilities in a Fight
If the two Godzillas ever met and engaged in combat. Which one is more powerful? How would that battle play out?
Film Style and Quality
Keeping in mind both are completely different styles of film, this category is likely to spark some diverse opinions. Those debating this category should be familiar with both film's backgrounds and messages.
Regarding Godzilla Resurgence, many debate points will need to wait until new footage and/or the film is released. As right now, we don't know much about Shin-Goji's abilities and film style. For now however, the design is open for comparison and debate.
Let them fight...

"I just saw Shin-Gojira today"
Just today, eh? ;)
Ease up fellas. A little less personal attacks, more attacking the opinion. This isn't lock-worthy, just a reminder for everyone to
lol!
Dinosaurs incredible creatures who roamed the Earth 65 million years ago. Never had nature been filled with so much terror and beauty...
Shiro, I can consider you agreeing with him as a full betrayal. I had seen pieces of the film prior, but only saw it in its entirety yesterday. I've been here for awhile, and I've debated Ben a handful of times--I know how the argument goes.
It becomes an insane back and forth, with no furthering or realization--on both ends. That's why I truly don't debate anymore. I never said I got mad, at all--anyways getting too far off-topic. Currently awaiting Ben to refute the positions made on my last comment, and then I will respond.
Good grief.
Bruh...look at whut TheGman123 said...

Yeah, TheGman nailed it. If Shin-Godzilla could keep him at bay, hammering his shell with those beams--Legendary would die pretty easily. But, Legendary has enough durability I know based on evidence, and enough muscularity--to either dodge these beams, wear out Shin-Gojira, tackle him--and end the fight.
That is my analysis, awaiting a response.
Good grief.

Gg, your whole comments here on this whole thread say differently. You acted like you seen the whole film before actually seeing it for the first time yesterday in full. You just said you never get mad Yet your comments on this thread tell a different story.
I'm not pulling this stuff up as a personal attack. I am showing you, your lies. Your lies find you out, Gg.
And to top it off, you just personally attacked Shiro by saying "you find that as a betrayal" because he agreed with me?
Again, it's not a personal attack. It's pointing out your lies. Now then, just for the sake of this whole thread, why don't we move this to the PM'S?

I've seen it in the theatre, but missed the first 30 minutes. I saw it in full yesterday. I saw it again, but traffic held me up--and I missed the first ten minutes. Just yesterday did I see the whole thing. I did not lie about anything in what you just posted lol.
Shiro and I are friends, I'm joking by the "betrayal". You now, are changing the subject. If we don't move back to arguing Godzilla 2014 vs Godzilla 2016, I'm not going to respond.
Good grief.
Oh god i'm in a crossfire...

Well don't use me as an escuse!

Well lets see, going off your previous comment here, Shin Godzilla can't withstand the onslaught of 2014? I doubt that. Considering the fact that the bombs hurt 2014 and not shin.
Even if 2014 tips Shin to shreds like you're suggesting, it won't do no good. May I remind you that Shin Godzilla is capable of self reproducing or regenerating similar to Reptilicus and the gargantuas? If Shin was blown up or torn to shreds, each piece would become a new Godzilla. So, instead of one, there would be 100's of not thousands of him. 2014 would not be able to take on that many. He barely took on 2 different monsters then. And unlike 2014, Shin Godzilla can detect movement.

# THIS IS POINTLESS!!!

@Shiro,
I know. Usually the ones who can dish it out are the ones who should be able to take it.

Yeah yeah but people have their different opinions so... DEAL WITH IT
Dinosaurs incredible creatures who roamed the Earth 65 million years ago. Never had nature been filled with so much terror and beauty...
I wasn't dishing anything out, please don't fall back to the weak concealed insults.
Nonetheless, even fi Shin were to be blown to shred and attempt to regenerate--or reproduce like he did at the end of the film--Godzilla 2014's purpose was to stop the MUTOS from reproducing, he would kill the kids with his atomic breath.
Good grief.
"I wasn't dishing anything out, please don't fall back to the weak concealed insults."
I didn't mean it like that. You're dishing out the 2014 debate and I'm throwing in Shin. I can't help you don't like it when I bring up the weak points of the film.
I mean, you come up with wild @## goose chases like "It took weeks and days." if it took weeks to travel from Hawaii to California, then these monsters in 2014 are by far the slowest animals to date then.
Also, saying it would kill the babies with the atomic breath is rather moot because like your precious 2014, radiation is a food source. It would dramatically increase the growth rate because radiation is it's energy source.

It was days of battling, weeks was indeed an over exaggeration. I highly doubt infant Shin-Godzillas could handle the heat of Godzilla's beam.
Good grief.
Gg, it was a night time battle with the male muto at Hawaii. They both took off to San Francisco during the daylight and made landfall during the daylight. Then the final battle ensued during the night time. So, in conclusion only 2 days.
Thank you for capitalizing on your exaggeration on the Weeks part. Now we're getting somewhere.
If you paid attention to Shin Godzilla, the radiation which also emits extreme heat is what causes Shin to evolve. And it's also a perfect organism. It can adapt itself to anything. And as long as there is oxygen and water, it can live anywhere.
Plus, the heat it was emitting was so hot that the temperature of his freezing was -196 degrees Celsius. That's cold but, it took gallons and gallons of the coagulante in order to be effect. Even then, he still had a faint glow in his spines to start his atomic ray before finally freezing.

Wouldn't call it capitalizing--admitting I was wrong?
Yes, that is Shin-Godzilla--the final form of the most destructive Godzilla. But, if we're talking about Legendary Goji eradicating him, but him reproducing last minute--I, am pretty certain that the infant younglings don't possess the same power lol.
Good grief.
Capitalizing, admitting your wrong, either way, you came up with a lie on the film to try to make your debate stronger and it didn't work. So yes, Thank you for correcting yourself. It is highly appreciated.
And again, he was emitting heat early on. That's one of their first discoveries besides it was leaving radiation behind. So, in conclusion, it's been emitting heat ever since it came out of the water. It only returned to the water to cool itself down because of the intense overheat it was emitting.
So, the poorly dubbed "Eelzilla" and poorly dubbed "Turkeyzilla" were emitting heat the entire time. Saying it doesn't possess the same power may be right but, it's not going to kill either form.

"Godzilla 2014's purpose was to stop the MUTOS from reproducing,"
Then he failed his purpose. The MUTO did reproduce and a poorly written EOD character had to handle them.
