Shin godzilla is the best since the original, and if the second hour was trimmed by about 15-20 minutes of boardroom scenes it'd be a masterpiece and the best one of the series.

Is 1998 actually a *bad* movie, or is it just one of those "it was unfaithful and therefore is automatically the worst movie ever regardless of any other merits" films? (i.e. if previous movies did not exist but 98 was the same, how well regarded would it be?)

1998 has a great first act, than it absolutely shits itself halfway in. it's not even a giant monster movie for most of the runtime, the plot is way more focused on the babies than people seem to remember. it is fun though, but a bit overlong.

Technically speaking it's the best of the Showa Era. So it has that in its favor. Additionally, it has one of the better human casts and narratives in the entire franchise. Not saying these are three dimensional characters or anything. Though they're charismatic enough and the film balances them well with the monster action. The best Godzilla films are the ones with the best human drama. Ifukube nailed the sound of Godzilla of here and the monsters look fantastic. Sure the third act is a little flimsy, though it certainly does not ruin the film.

They have a lot in common. The comparison is apt. Same with Doctor Strangelove, which it has more in common with. Political satire. Shin Godzilla just has a science-fiction angle to it. And if you had actual criticisms about the politics or dialogue of Shin Godzilla instead of complaining about it deciding not to go the traditional route maybe we would have more to discuss.

Unless I see some substance next time this will be my last response to you. I've asked you for Shin Godzilla specific criticism and thus far you've provided absolutely nothing. I could change almost nothing about your "criticisms" and apply them to Doctor Strangelove or 12 Angry Men. Your sentiment is beginning to sound vaguely racist. Anyway, Shin Godzilla is commentary on the Fukushima disaster back in March 2011 and is essentially an updated Gojira with Hideaki Anno's sensibilities. It critiques the government's response to the situation with Godzilla as the substitute for the earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear reactor meltdown. Rando Yaguchi and his team of political/military misfits struggle to cut through the inefficiency of Japanese bureaucracy before all is lost. Instead of portraying the establishment as evil, their approach and attitude towards the situation is just inappropriate. People are dying every second and they are too concerned about image and seniority. Yaguchi just wants to protect his country and his people in the face of an unprecedented and rapidly evolving crisis. The cinematography, editing, score, and satire keeps the meetings fresh for most of the movie, however, I'll admit five minutes leading up to the finale could have been trimmed for a smoother experience.

Depends if you're a longtime fan or someone who knows him only from his anime.

Toho seems to be less demanding these days. Shusuke Kaneko caught hell while trying to make GMK. He wanted to use different monsters and requested a slightly longer production schedule. Obviously Toho turned him down on both. He was asked to come back to do another right after and declined because Toho was so difficult to work with.

Yes, they're letting him do pretty much anything, a plant/metal hybrid Godzilla would have been impossible to get OK'd years ago, but after Shin, they're trusting the creators.
>>
>>87272613
>Destoroyah
Reasons I've seen listed as for why Destoroyah is a great movie are: Burning Godzilla looks intimidating, Destoroyah is the devil incarnate, and Godzilla's death is touching closure to the Hesei movies.

Meanwhile those people seem to ignore the sleep-inducing characters, sluggish pacing, dull camerawork, piss-poor effects even for the time, and embarrassing homages to American blockbusters. The Heisei and Millennium movies encapsulate almost all of the mainstream complaints about the Godzilla series and yet those are the movies the fandom seems to love to push to the forefront.
>>
>>87273032
Yeah, much as I like them, I've seen other sites say that Heisei was kinda stagnating beyond the monster designs.

I admire it for returning Godzilla to his darker roots and commenting on the Cold War. However, it suffers from many of the same crippling flaws as the later Heisei movies. The characters are weak, the pacing is in serious need of tightening, the comedy relief clashes hard with the tone, and Godzilla comes across as dull. It does have a tense atmosphere and one of the best scores in the entire series though.

When I was a kid I drew a hundred different creatures for Godzilla to fight and yet none of them will ever appear in a Godzilla film

Why even live

Also Godzilla is the only creature that could destroy the Emperor of Man

Classic Media's DVD collection (Mothra vs Godzilla, Ghidorah, Monster Zero, Revenge, and Terror of MechaGodzilla) has documentaries, commentaries, photo galleries.

The first copies of Media Blasters' DVD/Blu-Rays of Vs Megalon has a commentary by Steve Ryfle & Stuart Galbraith IV. However, there was some complicated situation involving Toho not signing off on it and the later copies don't have it. Same with DAM if I'm not mistaken.

Japanese and Australian releases of Shin Godzilla are packed with special features.

Toho is difficult to work with.

But I feel that's more inline with other japanese made gojira films. Also I feel the message for shin was much more biting and delivered fantastically. Which was directly aimed at aging Japanese bureaucrats and their red tape taking too long to get anything meaningful done before its too late and a disaster is on their hands.

"Godzilla was a product of the times. There previously had been no monster like him. So, people were frightened, and shocked, by him. Now, when Godzilla appears in a city, most of the buildings are even taller than he is!

The image of what a monster is shouldn't stay the same. It should be different so that people will be shocked and surprised, just as they were by GODZILLA - KING OF THE MONSTERS in 1954. Something new, and strange, must be created." - Ishiro Honda

I've only seen a very few number of Showa ones and most of them were MST3Ked. I saw the original without Joel and the bots riffing it. Those were alright but I don't really remember them all too well.

The Heisei trilogy on the other hand is fucking majestic. Jesus.

Shusuke Kaneko for you. He and Shinji Higuchi made that trilogy with millions of dollars less than what the people over at Toho were getting for the Godzilla movies at the time. Toho was embarrassed and jealous. The hilarious part is that Toho turned down Kaneko's request to direct Godzilla vs Mothra (1992) before Daiei snatched him up for Gamera: Guardian of the Universe (1995).

Note that I'm talking about revenge of iris
I'm sure almost everything leading up to the confrontation in Hawaii was written by Edward himself, but that's where things get pretty sus
>jap government attempts to catch gyaos in football stadium = jap government trying to contain male muto
>Gamera fights flying enemy in japan = Godzilla fights flying enemy in Hawaii
>gyaos / MUTO fly out to sea and our heros swim after them
>gyaos killing / reproducing quickly = MUTO eating nukes and trying to mate
>Iris = female muto
.>the halo jump scene
>Gamera / Goji fight gyaos / male muto / while iris / female muto merges with girl / lays eggs
>Iris cutting off gamera hand and nearly killing him = Goji getting stabbed within an inch of his life
>>
>>87293757
Some of these are interesting. Others seem to be a stretch. Would Edwards have that sort of control over the script of a project this size? It was only his second film and first Hollywood production.

In somewhat related news, Kadokawa proposed Godzilla vs Gamera to Too back in 2003/2004. However, Toho had no interest in the arrangement since Godzilla is the larger draw (domestically and internationally) and they didn't want to promote a rival franchise.

Toho pushing for King Ghidorah and Mothra over Kaneko's choices made sense. As overused as they are, they're right behind Godzilla in terms of popularity and appeal. Godzilla 2000 underperformed and Vs Megagairus was a box office bomb. Orga was not a well received monster and his merchandise did not sell. Toho was actually going to end the Millennium series there but decided to turn to Kaneko before throwing in the towel. GMK was the most critically acclaimed Godzilla film in many years at that point and the most successful of the Millennium bunch. Its success inspired Toho to continue making Godzilla movies.
