Seriously though, she likes cute thing so I'm going to go with Son of Godzilla next.

Good choice.

A combo of Godzilla VS Mothra followed by Ghidorah is also a good idea- Mothra Larva is great and seeing her own Rodan and Godzilla is fantastic

Been watching Mothra vs Godzilla, enjoyed it.

Particularly liked Godzilla acting like a belligerent drunk in his first attack. Just stumbling around and into buildings, pulling down towers on top of himself, yelling angrily.

He's a real prick in this one, it's great

There’s this really dumb Godzilla idler game on iOS that I’ve been playing for a week and it’s been real fun because it has like 100+ Kaiju in total and every now and then I run against some weird one I haven’t seen in decades (or at all) and it makes me look up what movie its from so I can go see it. poo poo like Desguidorah and Manda.

One of those shots was a legit flub, Nakajima stumbled and fell into the castle model. That’s also why Godzilla’s jowls kinda flap in some shots, they were knocked loose by the fall.

To anyone who has Turner Classic Movies on their tv, tonight they're starting their October long Godzillathon at 8:00. Gojira and then King of the Monsters! to start.

Easily done I'd guess.

Relatedly I was listening to Alan Moore on bbc 6 yesterday playing his favourite/his songs and this one came up. His set up was that if you look at Godzilla's eyes in the later films, his heart's clearly not in it anymore, he's not really enjoying himself. Which made me laugh

Me: "People are silly about that kind of thing, it would be a distraction."
Pants Jr.: "Dad, wouldn't it be great if King Ghidorah had three dongs flapping around as he flew over Godzilla?"

The boring answer is that reptiles and insects don't usually have external genitalia. No excuse for Kong though.

Rewatching KotM, and I just realized at the end, when Charles Dance acquired the severed Ghidorah head, that was the "Curly" of the three heads he was buying.

Man, what would a clone of that one be like?

I just ask myself, "How would Mr. Rogers have handled this?"

Edit: Forgot to mention, I had to edit the original post because he just had his ninth birthday. His favorite present was the big NECA King Ghidorah, the one that has a detachable Kevin head. Last night before bed he told us he'd lost the head and he was almost in tears.

(I found it.)

That really was a pretty drat well-choreographed battle. In my Shin universe, the particle beam is way more powerful than they had it, but Legendary is so much faster and dexterous, if he avoids the particle beam, Shin blows his wad and is then helpless.

Yeah but then we wouldn't have G14 getting blown off of Shin's back by his spine lasers.

Correct, it would be hard to make a dramatically interesting fight going with my parameters.

Seeing the two of them next to each other really highlights their differences. G14 is a realy, incredibly huge animal, while Shin is this radioactive thing that shouldn't be. They're going far with that in their effects/editing reel.

I appreciate how G14/19 is willing to get up and close in his battles. He uses his jaws as a weapon more than any other Godzilla. He just takes a bite and then puts his weight into the charge to bowl over his opponents and drag them to the ground. It's a nice change from most of the Heisei and Millennium fights where it's a laser blast standoff.

I imagine trying to get the practical suit to bite something would be hellish, which is why it never featured in suit-based movies. I wouldn't at all be surprised if a new Toho Godzilla had a similar shift in arsenal.

He definitely bites, it's just never been his primary attack since the beam spam started. G14 uses his breath as a finisher rather than an opener.
