NAME DOES MATTER.
Hey Luis Duran I Believe You Do Not Call Zilla It's Godzilla 1998 From The Film
Not the 98 Godzilla because it’s not Godzilla.
Yes
Wiki zilla
Say movie godzilla 1998 is Godzilla
And zilla is zilla from godzilla final war .
There is anime zilla in earth Godzilla in book.
This Kaiju deserves to be it's own monster.
Hate the movie,love the series.
All I want to say is I love Godzilla 1998 ever since I was a kid & still do till this day. This movie will always hold a special place in my heart. Regardless of what anyone thinks of the Godzilla 1998 creature design, he’ll always be GODZILLA to me.
Same!!!
Well the difference it's fine to accept that's a version of Godzilla, but it shouldn't be anyone's idea of what GODZILLA really is, because it objetively is the furthest Godzilla from any Godzilla depiction ever. It has no atomic breath weapon, it has very weak durability, very low destructive capability, runs from helicopters, and is an iguana.
Yes!
98 godzilla is the Most bad ass design ever! Better then the beer gut diabetic with cankles design!
Same the scale and epics are my favorite childhood memories
Godzilla 98 or Zilla, the name doesn't matter to me I always liked the design as a kid growing up. Although it is funny the time first I heard the name zilla, originally was from the 98 cartoon show. So in theory Zilla is technically the baby of 98 godzilla.
Godzilla 1998 was never a bad Godzilla design.
your so right
People will always hate when Americans put their own spin of foreign films but if it’s the other way around people love it 😂
Only a Japanese toy maker can use the name Godzilla 1998. That’s the license stipulation Toho has.
It’s not Spiral Studios fault. They are a company based out of Thailand.
oh really? i never heard about that before, it is an interesting thing and that explain everything that happened and of course also confirms that this is a Toho decision.
That makes sense
Its legit as simple as: The creature form the 98 film is "Godzilla" and the creature from Final Wars is "Zilla".
@Dkosowp gaming toho literally said that it's all zilla
@@ikaiju-eu9wnno they didn't, they did not say anything about it
Thank you, finally people who understand
Yeah
@Dkosowp the creature in final wars was the clone of 98 Godzilla
I get why they hated it. They wanted the same toho godzilla. Blinded by that betrayal they hated Godzilla 1998 for whatever shallow reason they could find and stuck it to him for over 2 decades now
25 years since the movie came out and yet people still treat him as the butt of the joke. I'm glad there are plenty of decent Godzilla fans that are actually liking this Godzilla. At least something good came from him. Zilla got a second chance in the comics and the 1998 Godzilla is getting action figures. So it goes to show that yes the movie had its flaws but it's entertaining to watch.
This is still one of my favorite Godzillas ever, the animated series that followed it made this MY Godzilla growing up
@@flyrockarts5182 mine too.
He's the butt of the joke cause he fucking sucks 😂
@@matiasshaw2185 The movie is very VERY overhated.
@@Godzillaminusone70 it is.
Thanks for bringing this up man! Godzilla 1998 is also my favorite Godzilla design of all time, followed by Godzilla 2000, and it's great to see other people start to come around to just how awesome this design of the character is.
*Zilla
How is it your favourite design what
@@Izywik92 pressed piss boy
@@5specIt's their opinion
@@Izywik92*Godzilla
1998 Godzilla will always be an incarnation I love. Not my favorite incarnation, but I still love it. It’s funny how 1998 Godzilla is more loyal to Godzilla’s actual origins than Monsterverse Godzilla. 1998 Godzilla is an animal mutated against its own will, and now because it’s so large, humanity has to kill it. It goes perfectly with Ishirō Honda’s famous quote, that being *“Monsters are tragic beings. They are born too tall, too strong, too heavy. They are not evil by choice. That is their tragedy.”*
And I love the mutant
I see it as an alt universe version of Godzilla. I can see why some people didn't like it. Emmerich took a major gamble when he went for a design and personality shift so radically different from the original. Of course the design did win over some fans, and it is unfortunate that the creature concept couldn't have continued into its own separate EU. My bigger issue with the movie was the poor comedic timing one liners and overall forced attempts at comic relief. I believe there is a fan edit floating around out there with that campiness edited out, and that it makes the movie much more enjoyable.
That would be awesome to see, if it flows well enough. I love Yoshi.
Well said, Luis, I grew up with Godzilla 98
Finally someone who understands
Godzilla 1998 was never a bad movie. It was never a bad Godzilla lol. It was the American Godzilla. I feel like people where mad because Godzilla didn't walk standing up lol
Facts
Warning: Long comment up ahead.
I have a bit of an issue with the Shin Godzilla comparison. Was Shin radically different? Yes it was, and I even remember being upset about his previous forms and his new abilities when I first found out about them. However, you mentioned that the reasons people hated the 1998 Godzilla were that the atomic breath and resistance to military weapons were removed, and you're right about that. Shin, on the other hand, kept those characteristics. He still had atomic breath, and he was still mostly resistant to military weapons. Sure, he bled from bunker busters, but at least they didn't kill him. And on the topic of Godzilla dying, the cause and circumstances of Godzilla's death in 1954, vs Destoroyah, and 1998 were completely different. Godzilla 54 was killed by a super weapon said to be worse than a nuke, Burning Godzilla died from meltdown as a result of absorbing too much radiation at once, and Godzilla 1998 was killed by missiles. Comparing these deaths is like comparing apples, oranges, and tomatoes. The results may have been the same, but the causes weren't.
TL;DR: Let's compare Godzilla 98 and Shin Godzilla with subtraction and addition respectively. One took features away, while the other kept them while adding new features.
And if this sounded like I was bashing the 1998 film and its version of Godzilla, I apologize. Having been born several years after the 1998 film came out, I never harbored any hatred for it. I simply looked at it as just another version of Godzilla. I will end this comment on a positive note: a Movie Monster Series figure of the 1998 Godzilla would be pretty cool. Even if they just call it Zilla, the 2 designs are similar enough that I would gladly accept a 6 inch vinyl figure of either character.
You forgot the big one. Shin Godzilla reproduces asexually via its tissue and the big threat is poses is its reproduction capabilities like Godzilla 98. That’s what makes America decide to nuke shin Godzilla in the film when they discover this after the bombing.
THANK YOU for this video
I always referred to this Godzilla as American Godzilla. Never referred to him as Godzilla '98 or Zilla. Will always be American Godzilla to me. Nice video, I too love this movie.
So. And. Not to be a jerk or toxic. But What exactly is monsterverse godzilla to you then if that’s the case? Just curious
@@phoenixmaximus1718 yeah I have to agree, "American godzilla" is just as vague of a name as "Hollywood godzilla" which are nicknames given to both godzillas
Do you have eyes? Its clearly how *HE* sees it. You can't really change it so, there is no point in even asking or telling him.
1998 Godzilla is a Godzilla. OG 1954, 1985, Legendary, all my favorite Gman incarnations, as for MechaG it’s Kiryu and Ready Player One.
I used to hate godzilla 98 but know I think it’s good as its own kaiju movie and no connection to godzilla but at least we got godzilla: the animated series and I want a SH MonsterArts zilla and zilla jr figure
Same here, but until I watch one of Gojifan1993's delete videos about Zilla so I give it chance and plus the 98 film is my first Godzilla film I watch
9:04 Reason why godzilla dies in the 1st film is different to 1998 Is that godzilla doesn't die with modern weapons same with 1995 like 1998 did. but do think 1998 should be called godzilla
Well, as someone from the "Zilla is Godzilla 1998" crowd, I have to respond to some thing in this video. Not trying to be antagonistic, but I feel that counterarguments need to be made.
4:06 - There's a bit of a contradiction here. First you said the line from GMK is "obviously" not referencing the 1998 film, then you say that it's "clearly a nod" to the 1998 film...which means they are obviously referencing the 1998 movie. In fact, that was clearly the intention of the line.
The 1998 film not referencing the 1954 film even has a built-in explanation in GMK: so much time has passed that Godzilla has been relegated to the realm of myth...a myth like the one the name is derived from in the 1998 movie.
5:40 - The original movie retaining the name "Godzilla" doesn't really mean anything regarding this topic. There is a particular DC superhero who was originally named "Captain Marvel", but after a certain point, he was renamed "SHAZAM". However, there is a movie serial from the Forties that, when recently released on DVD and Bluray, retained "Captain Marvel" in the title. They did not alter even though the character now has a new name (and an altered design). Renaming a character does not necessarily mean everything gets retroactively altered based around that.
9:06 - I had a feeling this is why you kept bringing up the "people hate G98 because he dies at the end" argument, but here's the thing: that's not actually the argument. Everyone knows that Godzilla dies in the 1954 film; the part being omitted is HOW he dies. The original Godzilla can only be taken down by a weapon so powerful that its own inventor regrets making it, whereas the 1998 creature...just gets hits by missiles. There is, of course, a lot of thematic and symbolic stuff separating the two as well, but the point is that how each monster dies is the key factor.
9:30 - Abandoning the tradition is actually part of why a lot of people (myself included) don't like Shin Godzilla. There are other reasons, but I've got videos explaining that. Suffice it to say, that's not very convincing to me.
For everything else...the whole thing with Spiral Studios only serves to prove that Godzilla 1998 and Zilla are truly interchangeable. After all, if Zilla and Godzilla '98 are truly different creatures, then the Spiral statue should have been issued with the "Godzilla" name, right? Considering Toho draws a clear line between Rodan and Fire Rodan (even though the latter starts out as a normal Rodan), then surely they would also draw the line between Zilla and Godzilla 1998, right? Instead, the names appear to be used interchangeably whenever merchandise is made, and Toho makes no distinction.
Therein lies the issue here. Godzilla 1998 IS Zilla; the latter would literally never have existed without the former. Everyone involved in the making of FINAL WARS, as well as Patrick Tatopolous himself, acknowledge that Zilla is the 1998 Godzilla. Toho makes no distinction between them. Even if the creature in question started out as Godzilla, now it is a different creature, as proclaimed by the people who hold the license.
The way I see it, there's nothing wrong with accepting that. Heck, when you get right down to it, Zilla is the only way that the 1998 Godzilla will continue to exist, especially since that other American Godzilla came along.
Anyway, you can agree or disagree, but I stand where I stand.
Dude pre ordered a final wars Zilla, but also collects Godzilla 1998 figures. Big whoop
Honestly I love Godzilla 1998 it’s not that bad when I saw it. Sure it’s not like Godzilla but it’s still a good kaiju or monster movie. And to be honest I hope Godzilla 1998 gets more love in the future it was so hated it barely got any merchandise years later. And I hope Bandai and SH make Godzilla 1998 merchandise. And to be honest I hope this version of Godzilla returns because I know some people out there actually would want to see this version of Godzilla return. I’d like to see him return in the monsterverse or continue on what happened after the animated series.
Me too
Bravo
Hate me but I love 1998 and hate final wars among other not so liked Gojira movies.
@@chichiboypumpi same
They just need rerelease it under the name Zilla lol
Honestly, TOHO bringing the G98 Godzilla design into Final Wars just to have FW Godzilla obliterate him kinda backfired on them. Because...with the exception of Monster X in the final battle...FW Godzilla obliterated EVERY kaiju he came across during the films runtime. Hell....Zilla put up a better fight than Gigan 😂
well there was only a runtime of less than two hours and having the world record for the most mainly battles in a single movie
Godzilla 1998 is one of my favorite Godzilla films ❤
Yes 98 is technically godzilla. But I personally still call em zilla, I think it fits a little better as his own thing rather sense they don't fit the best as "Godzilla" in my opinion. That's just me.
mo mo mo... I'd say 98 Zilla is just a mutated iguana. Now, it's offspring is a Zilla. It has atomic breath, very resilient from attacks, fights other kaijus and aliens. Now, we don't know if 98 zilla could've matured into a proper godzilla like its offspring did. Assuming that the show's kaiju was from the same generation as the movie zilla vs the next generation like the one in the show then that radiated iguana would be a bonified godzilla. I think the kaijus from the show were 1st gen so 98 godzilla would've actually been godzilla had it matured instead.
I mean if we took the Legendary concept for Kong, the one that they saw from Skull Island was at the level of the original story Kong vs the TOHO Kong. Then it matured and became a TOHO Kong (kind of.. IDK what Legendary's plans are with him so we won't know till we see him become KING Kong rather than just Kong). I mean, I think he's at kaiju level already. He is as tall as godzilla and kept up with him. Whether or not he'd gain his powers like in the TOHO movies remains to be seen.
His Son name is Zilla from Godzilla The Series
@@jahmoymignott4081his name is godzilla junior
@@cheesegrater5100 This version of Godzilla Son is name Zilla people don't call him Junior
@@jahmoymignott4081the offspring or the 98 godzilla is called godzilla junior and zilla and godzilla junior are really two different characters
Kinda odd that the figure is called Zilla despite it using the Godzilla 1998 figure. My theory is that Toho wants to label all versions including the 1998 Godzilla as Zilla for future Zilla content. That way when people want Zilla related stuff they can find Godzilla 1998 stuff. I know that one of IDW’s Godzilla comic runs had Godzilla fight Zilla. I’m that comic issue they used a design very close to the 1998 design. I think Toho plans on using Godzilla 1998’s design for Zilla. They won’t change the name of the film Godzilla(1998) since that was the name of the actual film. I’m sure some complicated copy right reasons to why the movie’s title wouldn’t be able to change. Even if they did it would be odd since the characters of the film call him Godzilla.
I’m not a fan of Godzilla 1998, but I still refer to the monster as Godzilla and the Final Wars creature Zilla.
People are overthinking it, when Tristar didn’t make another Godzilla film, the rights to the 98 film, including the creature in it, reverted to Toho - Toho is extremely protective over their monster rights, going as far as to trademark each individual creature, and they trademarked the ‘98 Godzilla design as “Zilla”.
So, when licensed toys and merchandise are made, they either a) have the license to the ‘98 film overall and thus are marketed as “Godzilla” - or b) licensed the individual creature with none of the film rights - and are thus marketed as simply “Zilla”. It’s just legal/sales/commercial talk and has nothing to do with Toho condemning or praising the creature one way or the other.
Personally, I’m guilty of casually referring to them both as “Zilla”, I know it’s considered derogatory because of that stupid “took the god out” quote - but I do it because 1) “Zilla” as a name just sounds cooler to me than “Godzilla” and 2) it’s much less confusing in casual conversation with non-Kaiju fans or newbies, especially since “American Godzilla” is now far more closely associated with Legendary’s Monsterverse creature (which I am, controversially not a fan of). But - otherwise - yes, I agree with most of the people here that the creature in the 1998 film is by all means, canonically (if not legally) Godzilla - and the Final Wars creature is Zilla.
I especially like to distinguish the two creatures because of the slight but very prominent design differences which I’m surprised aren’t touched upon more in this video. Zilla in Final Wars was modeled by scanning a Godzilla ‘98 toy (one featured in the background of this video) which contains several differences in it’s design from the in-film creature designed by Patrick Tatopolous - as such those differences carried over into Zilla’s only appearance in Final Wars. Spiral Studios statue is one of the most accurate Godzilla ‘98 figures I’ve ever seen and I love that as time passes more people have grown to love the creature, it’s design, roar, and screen presence.
I mean Disney had to change the name of Zootopia to Zootropolis but they still call it Zootopia in the film so it wouldn't be the weirdest thing to change the film name to just Zilla lmao
where do you live where they use the name zootropolis?
@@NostalgiaCriticAnim1 Probably the same place that called The Avengers movie “Avengers Assemble”

The animated series was the best Godzilla 1998 media ever. You see how I said “Godzilla”. final wars version is Zilla!
I'm in the team, I love GODZILLA 1998.
I love Godzilla 1998 since I was I kid and I didn’t know this is a version of Godzilla until later in my life and I’m also a Godzilla fan and also I’m a continuity nerd myself and I also noticed that Godzilla 1998 and Zilla are technically the same and not the same at the same time because these are technically versions of the G-Man.
Same

1998 Godzilla will always have a place in most of our hearts! Both 98 Godzilla and Zilla need more love.
Same
Same
Same
same
They are the same creature
I think that most of ppl got confused over the years with the name for this facts:
-G98 was never used again after the series and then Zilla after FW was used for some things so they think that if they look the same they are the same.
-People that hate this Godzilla version also for sure spread to the general consensus that they are the same or that Toho renamed it, so the people that do not fully care or do not really investigate the situation just assume that info as the truth (which for sure this is what happened for new fans all over the internet since many years ago I see only like 3 per 100 young fans that call it Godzilla and all the others call it Zilla for everything and they think that it is the correct name for him and you are wrong always.
I hope that the truth about this get to everyone really! but the people that hate this Godzilla (including Toho) and the people that have a closing mind get the situation worse trying to remove the truth and replacing it like Toho tried now with the Spiral Studio situation doing with them a trademark contrat with Zilla on purpose so they can remove Godzilla 1998 from the general consensus and replacing it with Zilla forever.
PD: Also I forgot to mention the people that hate the movie itself not only the Godzilla they also do much noise about all of this.
I recently saw a video where it sees the movie on a very well way since as a remake It talks about the bad use of nuclear bombs and how nature comes hunting the mankind for hurting the nature doing this and also is a criticism to the USA itself doing that the army only shoots and destroy everything (kinda like Shin Godzilla does a criticism to the goverment of Japan) and those are very solid topics for the movie and are well handle but people only see the surface of the movie as they do no like this Godzilla that is the most realistic one since, come on!!! what do you expect on real life where the fantasy do not exists? It is a real appreciation of Godzilla!!!
I really love Godzilla 1998!
@danielchin7317 or they just dont like the character and and contribute to spread the false truth, also there are wikis which say that fans call g98 Zilla and that get things worse since ppl use them as reference while they are not even official and are made by fans like them
@@Dovah2798 I like the character but naming it Godzilla is just as bad as saying Justin Chatwin is the best Goku. Toho renamed Zilla and that’s that, you just don’t like what’s confirmed so it’s YOU spreading misinformation, it’s not your character so get over it.
@@Izywik92 They change it for future and new things after the final wars movie but the 98 goji still there too since the name change do not work in retrospect thats why new g98 merch can be done in the recent years and also for Zilla at the same time, like those 2 statues from both characters that are releasing next year (I think both are next year).
So if you see anything directly related to the g98 movie or the animated series they are Godzilla even nowadays but if you see anything like final wars, IDW comics or the earth novel or anything new with that version there the change is done so that is 100% Zilla now and not G98
and about your example of Goku, he still Goku the worst one of course but technically a Goku (i really hate that shit movie jajaja) so this is the same case G98 is a Godzilla may be not the best for the ppl but it is a Godzilla.
Godzilla 1998 has the best design in all of Godzilla history 💯
Finally, someone respecting zilla and 1998 godzilla name
He’s one of my favorite Godzilla because he different. He’s not the traditional Godzilla and that’s what I like about him.
👇 Team Godzilla doesn't need hate
Finally, someone who got this right!!
This was the movie that taught me how to use the VCR as a child, much to my parents' chagrin. I really loved this movie as a kid, but then I grew up and learned to overlook the nostalgia to see the movie for what it was and saw my prior love for this movie as cringy because it was 'bad'. Now, I've come full circle, and while I think the movie is highly flawed, I can't deny that it holds a place in my heart and the monster design is incredibly iconic/special to me, as radically different as it is from the source material. I'm also finding myself saving up to purchase that figure because it's just so cool
W vid 🔥
I know how you feel Luis Duran and I feel the samething too.
When I was 7 years old I got to see Godzilla 1998 Movie in Theaters and I love it.🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
This year in 2023 is the 25th Anniversary of Godzilla 1998.
Hey you and I have in common that's pretty cool.
I give Godzilla 1998 Movie 5 Gold Stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Your Friend TimDarthTim👍
I agree with you 100% I have enjoyed 1998 for a long time for sure!
People: *arguing abt big igauans name*
Me who still calls him Gino or Taragoji:
I say Zilla to refer to the form of Godzilla ‘98. But you’re correct. I was 15 when ‘98 came out, and I dragged my parents and siblings to the theater to see it with me. My mom fell asleep lol. But I was beaming, I loved it so much. It’s nice to see Godzilla ‘98 getting some love🍻
Furthermore...G98 and Zilla from Final Wars are not the exact same design. TOHO actually used a scan from a G98 toy figure to create the CG model for Zilla...and it shows. He looks like G98, but slightly melted 😂
Anyways, the ppl trying to say the Spiral Studios figure is FW Zilla clearly dont know the difference between the 2 designs. That figure is DEFINITELY G98....not Zilla from FW.
Could be also RoE Zilla
@@loschrodproductions4519 nah, definitely not. RoE has a very stylized look to him thats quite distinct from either of the film versions
Come to think of it...a RoE Zilla figure would be pretty badass 🤔
I love the 1998 Godzilla, because I am a big fan of the cartoon Godzilla the series.
The Kaiju from the 1998 film is “Godzilla” in its own universe, but in a universe where the real Godzilla exists, it’s Zilla.
People also seem to forget that the original Godzilla died in his first film, Also has died many times. Also Zillas CG is not great is cuz they 3d scanned the large Godzilla 98 toy, which is why most of his textures look flat
You know I've never heard anyone say they didn't like the cartoon, even if they hated the movie. I think most people are fans of 98, but they just need to be reminded how cool the series was.
G98 was not Godzilla, it was A GODZILLA, the first of this kind. Is not the main Godzilla of that universe, and for som reason, ppl hate it for it. I love it so much.
I never disliked 1998, and actually 1998 and Godzilla vs Destoroyah are the only two Godzilla movies I've ever cried to. Also, Godzilla Jr from the animated show is in my top five favourite Godzilla's
Ever since gogi chronic came out people are admitting that they like Zilla as their favorite movie and also he is more durable than a lot of people think
Thank you this is a great video.
Seeing how much hate a different take can receive is really disheartening.
There is no reason to have hate of any kind.
You can dislike something but there isn’t need for slander.
This video is literally slander dude XD
I love the 1998 film and the cartoon was amazing 😍
I do know that they are different but I call them both Zilla to make it easier on me also I only have two Godzilla 1998/Zilla figures so I just go with Zilla just it easier on me, and again I know that Godzilla 1998 and Zilla are different I just call them both Zilla to make it easier on me.
Anyone else think that 1998 Godzilla is the most realistic Godzilla if Godzilla was in real life? Think about it, Legendary is an ancient protector, Shin is a mutated creature, -1.0 is a mutate dinosaur, but 1998 is a mutated iguana. If Godzilla were to be in real life, and be a result of bombing/mutation, he’d probably be an iguana or some sort of lizard, and would probably look like 1998.
👏👏👏👏👏great vid. i always loved this version of godzilla i even had a toy of baby godzilla that comes out of the egg(when i was 5) godzilla 98❤❤❤

I agree I love Godzilla 1998 wish people can put some respect on my Godzilla 1998 #loveGodzilla1998
All I know is that Godzilla 1998 has been GODzilla ever since his son’s animated series.
the problem isn't godzilla dies, its godzillas indestructibility and the metaphor of the atomic bomb was pushed to the side for a cheesy typical monster; Its more like a remake of the beast from 20000 fathoms.
But is not the real Beast from 20,000 Fathoms

Love the collection! 😊
Not gonna lie I think I’m keeping it zilla because he earned that name and I think it’s really cool for him
Big fan of Godzilla 1998 and it's cartoon series
Don't care i just want a figure of this thing. Godzilla or zilla that thing's design is beautiful
Godzilla 98 was meant to be the first evolution of Godzilla with the second film having Godzilla Jr have more of the normal features like the Atomic Breath and more resistance to the military attacks. The animated series basically became the squeal to the cancelled film trilogy.
I do wish they went back in and made the cancelled squeal.
The Tristar Godzilla movie did have a lot of mistakes that the directors should of had fixed yet it deserved better as a script made for a sequel was made in addition there was going to be a third movie for the fact they had film series planned
The fact that people still hate on Godzilla 1998 is crazy
I honestly I do hate that movie so that is my own issue.
A lot of the people who crap on Godzilla 98; likely would have never become Godzilla fans without it. Example, myself. I didn't give a damn for Godzilla. Decided to rewatch it just because I saw it in the DVD pile of stuff I owned, got hooked, went to binge other Godzilla movies and got entirely invested. In addition, Godzilla 1998 retains his own trademark under both Toho, and Sony - with Zilla also retaining a separate trademark under just Toho. Not sure if this has changed in the past 4 years, but that's my understanding from 2020 and before.
It never changed
I just want a Godzilla the series figure man.
Great G98 collection! I used to have the brown x-plus figure, still have the green one. Beautiful vinyl figure!
the comparisons you show are all literally identical. its zilla AND godzilla.
Toho makes the calls and this one isnt even an argument.
I mean to be fair, whether people like it or not the 1998 godzilla is still considered a godzilla while 2004 is named zilla, but either way though people aren't really gonna care as they will still call 1998 either by zilla or godzilla while still knowing that the 2004 one is officially named zilla and is not godzilla, and this is also added when one of the people who worked on the original movie described the 1998 movie as "taking the God out of Godzilla" so yeah I guess that's what kinda started the whole thing. Hey but at least we still got Godzilla Jr :D
Jr from 1998 animated series I don't consider as Godzilla in my own eyes.
@@user-wk5js2wr4f ok
I don't expect a Martin Scorsese production in a monster movie. I want to see a titan thrashing around crushing things. The 1998 movie was fun to watch and seeing in the theater was amazing. I love how the 1998 Godzilla looked incredibly athletic and like an apex PREDATOR.
Look I'm gonna be honest with you guys as a Godzilla fan and collector, This whole zilla thing was something that Toho decided to name and use for Godzilla vs Final wars. Now here's a something that's often overlooked in fandom, Purist and what I mean is for fans that only accept genre when it's made by the company/studio and nowhere else these purist fans for Godzilla are strictly toho fan's who down right refuse to accept this creature as anything other than Zilla cause that what Toho named claiming it's not worthy of God if that's even true either way. We just have to accept the fact that purist fans are out their and are gonna cause arguments about stuff like this wither we like it or not.
Can we say that if Godzilla 1998 is just "Zilla" then Monsterverse has "Legendary Zilla"
Since ppl wanna keep making Godzilla 1998 a shit fest of a joke because it was an american version then that can be the same for Legendary Godzilla. Doesn't matter if Toho likes Legendary, it's still an american version.
That's not the reason people dislike it. yes it is Godzilla in my opinion but that is not why they don't like it.
Interesting point but then what do you call the monster from the animated series is it Godzilla JR or Zilla JR ?
YES! Love the video!
great video
I feel like they used the Zilla name just to keep the trademark.
The trademark reverted back to Godzilla the trademark image is still the same but in 2019 it changed back to Godzilla it was originally Zilla they still have the trademark but it's just called Godzilla now
Hi
It may not be my favorite Godzilla Design but it'll always be part of my childhood and it's my first Godzilla film I watch, so without it I may not got into with Godzilla
I personally see Godzilla and Zilla as Convergent Mutations.
Two different Species of creature that mutated into Kaiju of similar attributes.
Large, Reptilian, and breathing Radiation.
To me Zilla is just another kaiju that fits in this huge Monster filled World.
He and Godzilla can Coexist. 😊
i subscribed to u i finally found another godzilla 1998 fan like me making a very good video explaining why godzilla 1998 is godzilla
He's not Godzilla deal with it
@@raptortristan793 he is godzilla the name of the movie is godzilla and the characters in the movie call it godzilla its a different depiction of godzilla deal with it you big fat crying baby
@@raptortristan793 he is godzilla deal with it
@@xenome3883 no he not

I love Zilla as it’s own monster.
Finally, someone who agrees!
I need all those Godzilla(1998) figures to feed my family and to pay my taxes. Defienetly not to show off to my friends.
I used to have the statue of Godzilla climbing atop the Empire State building.
I love the 1998 Godzilla design.
finally someone who gets it
I don't care what it's called. '98 Godzilla blows the original's design out of the water. The original's head is way too darn small. I hate that I can't see it's head from a distance.
Ok this video has convinced me enough to seperate the two names
Now when I was growing up, this movie along with the cartoon, this was my godzilla. It's just what I grew up with and I loved it.
