Broderick Godzilla proved that.
I honestly never gave a crap about Godzilla until Minus One. Even for someone desperate for scifi in the 80s, I just could not get into the old movies with the guy in the rubber suit.
I think it helps to discover that design as a kid.
That was a huge part of it for sure.
They took his personality away also.
Speaking only for myself I do find it hard to sit through many of the older films but I can always watch the Godzilla scenes. The Suitmation in those films are an art form that catches my imagination for sure.
Of the Toho films I can still watch from start to finish
Original Run
Godzilla 1954
Godzilla vs Mothra
Ghidorah The Three Headed Monster
Son of Godzilla - Guilty pleasure but I like the overall feel and look of the film. I hate the Godzilla suit though
90’s Run
Godzilla vs Biollante
Godzilla vs Destroya
Godzilla: Minus 1
EVILFACE
Insufferable S.O.B.
This movie was dumb. But like the last one, was fun. It was a kid smashing Godzilla and King Kong toys together for two hours. And was awesome. This one had friends come over to join him.
This movie doesn’t make a damn bit of sense why things happen. Hollow Earth is just nonsense and the black dude figuring it all out because someone had to.
Godzilla was barely in it. And couldn’t hit **** with his pink breath!
they should have gave Kong a GOLD tooth!
But I felt robbed. And when Rome and the Pyramids got leveled and they showed Rio I thought for sure that Jesus statue was going to get wrecked. On Easter weekend of all things!!! But no….. they chickened out. Srsly….

For me. I loved dinosaurs. Godzilla was a big dinosaur who was super strong and fought other monsters. He could go from a good guy to a bad guy and to neutral . He had so many cool toys and cool video games. His movies were just fun rent movies to watch at over the weekend at your grandparents house. Also the design and overall development is fun
I get it. I just left that all behind after I turned 13.
Well that was supremely, jaw-droppingly stupid.... but also surprisingly very watchable. 
The story was completely insane, and it felt like the writers' only directive was to cram as many ridiculous, far-fetched ideas and plot contrivances as they possibly could into one movie. And by this point the Monsterverse has completely left behind any trace of believability.
But that said, I can't deny the visual spectacle and constant monster fights did keep me fairly engaged throughout. And Kong still remains a cool character that is pretty fun to watch when he's kicking ***.
A little strange though that there was this huge long buildup for Godzilla... who basically comes across as just another monster in the final battle that the villain barely acknowledges. And seriously, are there any famous landmarks still standing in this world by this point?? Lol
The humans are as dull as ever, but thankfully this time we're only following 4 of them instead of big groups like in previous movies.
So yeah, not a good movie but decently watchable and I'd probably give it a 5/10 like GvK.

The Rampage movie had a giant flying wolf in it and it was not as dumb as Godzilla X Kong

Wor-Gar are you saying that we shouldn’t as mature adults expect a movie about Godzilla or T-Rex’s to be any good because those are products of childish fantasies that should’ve been jettisoned as soon as our brains became a vessel to only deal with serious adult matters?
Please say no lol, that’s not what you meant.
Because if you answer yes to the question I posed then you already lost the debate before it even begins!

You cheated, you added the T-rex.
I will say, Godzilla isn't as unbelievable as Superman.

Damn over 80 million opening!
Frankenstein vs Godzilla
wolfman I believe.
194 million worldwide.
135 million budget
I’m good with it making bank and if goes the “just for the kids” route from here on I’m ok with that.
I got more more than I ever would have imagined from the monsterverse
Godzilla 2014 has aged like a fine wine.
Kong: Skull Island is a solid fun film
Godzilla: Kong of the monsters gave me a big budget look at Ghidorah and Rodan
Godzilla vs Kong was a wonderful first time viewing experience. Sure I’ve cooled on it a bit but it was a freaking treat on opening day. It clicked every box of my childhood dreams.
Monarch - A solid though from from perfect tv show
Never ever in a million years would i have thought we would get big budget versions of these monsters like this.
And if these new ones makes the kids happy like some of the cheesy 60s ones made me happy then so be it.
Maybe we will get lucky and they will tone it down a bit for the next one. Director already said he wants the focus to be more on Godzilla.
Add in Minus one and G fans really have had it pretty good.
I just hope if they keep these more kid friendly that they at least make them a little less dumb.
