Agreed. Even when the effects in Godzilla movies don’t look very good (almost always because of issues with budget and not any lack of talent on the filmmakers’ parts) I can appreciate the amount of talent and ingenuity that went into attempting to bring a giant monster semi-realistically to the screen.

I don’t understand your and several other posters’ assertions that Godzilla is inherently childish and worthy of mockery while having no issue (I assume) with how childish most other major sci-fi franchises like Star Wars or Transformers are.

Nope, wrong. All films fall into one of two camps in terms of goodness and coolness: they’re either a “My Dinner With Andre” or a “Chainsaw Buttfuck 6".

Good for you, you have the same taste in entertainment as a ten-year-old.

Oh, okay, cool.

What’s your definition of “a few years ago”? Because there were female suit actors working on 1995's “Gamera” reboot and in Toho’s 2001 Godzilla film.

Hannibal was a wonderful man, and I hope that, one day, his killer is brought to justice.
