Until Destroy All Monsters each suit was a new suit with Ghidorah The Three Headed monster being same suit from GvM with different head with movable eyes. Sometimes they would reuse suits for water scenes. After DAM they used the suit in All Monsters Attack, Godzilla vs the Smog Monster and Godzilla vs Gigan. By All monsters Attack they started to go really cheap reusing scenes.Can we pretend that it is 1975 for a moment and look back on the history of the franchise?
Those films were “not” made at the best of the studio’s abilities. For one. The suit would sometimes fall apart and you could see that in many of the scenes before hand.
They went back to new suits in Godzilla v Megalon and the two Mechagodzilla films.
When I talk about best of their abilities I refer more to the first 9 films. With maybe the exception of Godzilla vs the Sea monster.
And again let’s not pretend we watch those later films like seriously. It’s mostly the love we remember for those films and the charm they had.
SOG had some of the best monsters in the series with the worst Godzilla suit (unfortunately) the giant spider and prey Mantis creatures are amazing and their best wire and puppet work. So I disagree it was “thrown together”Also have you seen son of Godzilla? That was pretty much thrown together.
It did have a smaller budget as Toho was throwing their money and A team words King Kong Escapes. I would say Son of G faired much better.
First off anything after DAM is hard for me to watch. The quality is bad but again there is a charm to them that can’t be overstated. You prepare your mind for those.Also come on now Godzilla jumped the shark long ago when he fought various versions of himself. But somehow running alongside kong is the thing that is “cartoonish”
My comments about cartoonish is that the CGI looks like cartoonish. They don’t look as real as previous films the two running together looks and is stupid.
Me I have higher expectations for these new Godzilla films and don’t expect them to go down the Godzilla vs Megalon path.
It’s stupid yes but not as stupid as GxK is looking to be.But if we are talking ridiculous here. King of the monsters was just as stupid.
Huh… watch the film again. The hurricane followed him due to him being a space alien and having an effect on the Atmosphere. Much less stupid the Gantlet wearing Kong.King ghidorah causing world wide hurricanes,
Yeah not a fan. A tribute to the 90’s Godzilla in many ways but dumb. Still better looking and more forgivable the cartoon graphics and running, poorly designed and animated Godzilla.Godzilla turning red and shooting mothra energy out his body.
I hate that part can’t argue.. I’ll take that over how bad most of the GxK graphics look and cartoon baby apesThe monsters Bowing to him.
It’s because it in no way fits the tone or rules established before it.But that one scene was the thing that got you guys to say “yea this is kinda dumb”
The idea of Godzilla running isn’t what sucks its final results and how it’s animated ( they failed with the run in G:2019 also but it was not nearly as comically bad). Godzilla looks just like a transformer the way he hops out of the ground and starts running and not a prehistoric monster
Well I’ll call the old G movies **** when they are and I’ll call the new ones **** when they are.it’s been dumb for awhile. The franchise bounces from dumb to serious on a dime
We have not even touched on the mess that was the millennium series and that abomination That was Godzilla Final Wars which made the errors that this movie looks like it may be making by having their monsters move nothing like monsters but the suit actors and motion actors…, ****
