Yeah, what he said.

I know I've said this elsewhere, but the battle in GOTU was exciting. The monsters were fast, the punches were hard, and they went every which-way. In G2 Gamera has a cool entrance, but then he just rams Legion and lets it push him backwards for the rest of the fight. It was like a really sad sumo fight. And the battle in G3 was awe-inspiring for the first minute, until Iris rams Gamera against a big wall. Then Gammy just stands there and gets molested by Iris. Not exciting.

I think they overmatched Gamera in G2 and G3, and instead of making the battle more fun, it just made them boring and...blah. It's a shame, as the rest of G3 is so great, the battle is a letdown...

I always thought the fights in G2 were exiciting and fast-paced. I wasn't over-thrilled with the ones in GOTU. I honestly believe people over-hype them to much, and is praticallly the ONLY excuse they use to say it's the best of the trilogy. G3 had the best fights in any kaiju film though. Sure there aren't as fast as the ones in G1, but they were much realistic, and better portrayed.

Why do we have to vote ANYTHING as being the worst? This isnt the kinda trilogy in which we're able to do something like that.

Good point. I look at "worst" as being "least awesome".

GOTU is my least favorite. G2 and G3 inspired an awe that few kaiju films have ever done. GOTU, while certainly masterful, is nothing more than an average film to me. The characters were well-done, but I enjoyed G2's overwhelming battles and story more. G3 is a masterpiece, envoking a true love/hate for the characters and the monsters accordingly.

My point exactly. I truly never did care if GOTU has the most action in any Gamera film. This strangly, again, is the only excuse people give for saying it's the best of the trilogy. I never did buy the ''It's combines and excellency of kaiju action and humana drama either'', mainly because that, to me, is the most sappiest excuse anyone could use. GODZILLA didn't have any of that, yet, most folks keep railing how an endless masterpiece it is.

Oh yes, but GODZILLA VS. SPACEGODZILLA lacked in so many areas, if not, suffered in them.
