    What was your favorite Godzilla movie in the Showa Era?

  • @WowThereBuddy1
    @WowThereBuddy1 3 года назад +14

    Hedorah is my second favorite in the franchise. It’s basically an avant garde art film disguised as a monster movie and the psychedelic trippy vibe of it is great. Hedorah’s design is also one of my favorites for just how unique it is. Biollante is the only one that comes close. The original will always be my favorite.

    Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla is the greatest Godzilla movie period. I'm beyond hyped for Kong vs Godzilla because Mechagodzilla with Ghidorah brainwaves sounds like heaven for me.

    I just love how all of these except for Godzilla’s revenge, takes place in the same timeline and universe. Starting with Gojira and ending with Destroy all Monsters.
    I don’t know why I wanted to say that.
    Edit: For the ill-informed, the 70s Goji movies take place before DAM which was released ‘68.

      Yeah, it was my favorite growing up. The human characters are some of the best and I don't think the budget being cut shows at all with all the Ufos, alien costumes and bases, rocket ships, mazer tanks, and the planet X set. It probably feels like the most expensive one so far actually.

    The last Godzilla, King Of The Monsters movie was incredible. And Kong Skull Island was great too. The effects in those movies were top notch. I hope that the Kong Vs. Godzilla movie is just as good or better than those. I don't expect Kong and Godzilla to really fight each other for very long. I predict they will team up against an even greater foe, but who knows.

    Gojira doesn't directly translate to godzilla, godzilla is simply the westernized name thought up by the studio. Google translate only say that its a direct translation because at this point its been so many year and it really does now mean Gojira in English. Mosura to mothra is a direct translation. To make the actual direct translation for gojira you would have to smash the words gorilla and whale together.

    The Terry O. Morse cut of the original is what introduced Godzilla to the rest of the world... Without it, there would be no Godzilla franchise. The original had already been released in the US two years earlier and went unnoticed. And the box office for Raids Again was way down from the first... Of course the original is superior in every way. But you have to understand that without the American cut, Godzilla would have never left Japan, and you wouldn't be making this video... So despite it's flaws, that version of the film is why Godzilla became the household name that he is to day.
