Godzilla (2014) is definitely better than that piece of hot steaming **** with Ferris Bueller and The Professional where they made Godzilla a Jurassic Park T-Rex.

Call me crazy but I'll probably watch the 98 one again before 2014, unless they have a massive re-edit of 2014 that includes the hawaii battle. But Godzilla VS Mechagodzilla is the best there is.
 
You're crazy. :lol

lol I know right, it's a terrible godzilla movie but I think it's a good monster movie, it's more in line with beast from 20,000 fathoms and with that perspective, I can enjoy that film, I mean just look at the monster in this shot compared to the 98 godzilla

I really don't see how Emmerich wasn't more influenced by 20,000 than Godzilla.

anyways both films have there problems and there are better Godzilla movies out there.

He is right about the 20,000 Fathoms connection though. :lol

He sure is.

But 1998 isnt really enjoyable tp me. A) I'd rather be bored with ATJ than be annoyed by matthew Broderick and that ditzy chick. B) its just a depressing film. I feel bad for the monster and its children. Its a sad movie. Just a creature changed by mankind trying to find a home and survive. Its not a fun movie imo. Its tragic.

The clapping and humor at the very end is such a drastic tonal shift…the movie is full of them though :lol
 
Yeah it felt unjustified. If Godzilla was truly a villainous creature than okay but he wasn't. He was a victim. It should have had more of a melancholy ending that would have had a more memorable impact on the audience.

Yeah, I was legitimately sad for the dying creature, and then I'm supposed to applaud because you killed an animal you created in the first place? How?... by trapping it and then putting a bullet to it's head in a defenseless state? yaaay….
 
Yeah, even as a monster movie, I want no part of it.

I don't have time for the Siskel and Ebert mayor jokes. :lol

Besides, If I want to see Velociraptors I'll just watch Jurassic Park instead of that garbage.

Word up! That ending disgusts me. As a "Godzilla" I do dislike '98. As a general monster, I think he's very cool. His temperament reminds me more of an Anguirus than a Godzilla.

It has some nifty action scenes, and a few cool creature build ups, but the rest is just so…blegh. I rarely ever get the desire to actively watch it. I still like the monster design though. And if I watch it as a Zilla (official Toho name) movie, I'm okay with it. It's comforting to know that the last baby at the end obviously got abducted by the aliens in Final Wars, raised and trained to one day take on the mighty Godzilla…only to be defeated in about 5 seconds. Now to that I can applaud :lol
 
I went to watch this today and didn't really like it. I couldn't make out most of the movie because it was way too dark. The night scenes were nearly unwatchable and the day scenes were lacking so many colors. So I come home, I re watched all the the trailers and download a movie screener and came to the conclusion that the theater where I watched it messed up the projection some how. Did some googling and found out there's a problem going around where movie theater are leaving a special type of lens used for 3d projection that can make 2d projections 50% to 80% darker than it should.

I'm going back there tomorrow and ask for a freaking refund.

Just thought I share it with you guys. Don't let it happen to you. Here's an article about it.

Shame. :(
 
It would have been cool if the MUTO's were classic Toho beasts as well. They felt pretty generic and unremarkable to me. It would have been cool if they were two Mothras or Rodans or something.
