Least Favorite Aspect of Every Godzilla Film

Actually, the musical fern magic might be the most realistic thing in that movie.

Godzilla (1954)

Not much to say with this one being the best. Only minor problem was occasional slips with melodramatic acting at some points.

Godzilla Raids Again (1955)

the fact that everything (plot, human story, human characters, monster fights) is BORING. Also can't stand hearing Angurias's roar in Godzilla in the American version.

King Kong Vs. Godzilla (1962)

So after electricity, tanks, and planes couldn't stop Godzilla (yet as a plot device, Godzilla can be slightly deterred by electricity only in this film to give Kong an advantage), the military decides to use "DYNAMITE" of all things to destroy him??? DYNAMITE???? Seriously????

Mothra Vs. Godzilla (1964)

As great as the film is, I'll agree with Irish about Godzilla vs Adult Mothra, but adding on to it, the point where we get a ton of close up and "extremely fast paced" shots of Godzilla flailing at Mothra is just very disorienting in my eyes and kinda switches gears from the slow methodical and epic shots we got of Godzilla before and then going straight to this. Aside from that, I love this film.

Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster (1964)

Adding onto Godzilla's fire breath problem posed earlier, for as many times as he apparantly tried to blast Rodan, and for all the times Ghidorah blasts him with his gravity rays, how come Godzilla never once blasts King Ghidorah back (especially when some posters advertised him doing so).

Invasion of the Astro Monster (1965)

Didn't we just see Godzilla/Rodan along with Mothra overwhelm King Ghidorah in the last film?? Why would we wanna see the same fight again minus one monster even if the sci fi plot is decent???

Godzilla Vs. The Sea Monster (1966)

The Giant Condor. Enuff said. Get another "better" monster that'll pose a better challenge to Godzilla at least.

Son of Godzilla (1967)

The Godzilla suit.

Destroy All Monsters (1968)

For a film titled Destroy All Monsters, there was too much human time as opposed to monster time. Also lets see more of Varan, Baragon and Manda in the final fight at least.

Godzilla's Revenge (1969)

The whole film almost.

Godzilla Vs. The Smog Monster (1971)

What was up with those scary looking ppl watching the fight on Mt. Fuji???

Godzilla Vs. Gigan (1972)

Stock Footage excuse for money/time saving tactics. If you can't afford making the film or don't have the time to make it good, why make it???

Godzilla Vs. Megalon (1973)

See reasons above. And hell at least Zone Fighter was 10 x's what Jet Jaguar failed to be. Hell Jet Jaguar was created from a kid contest and the kid who won was even disgraced that his original drawing of "Red Aroan" was modified by Toho for the film and looked nothing like his original drawing.

Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla (1974)

What is up with all the "counter smacking" sound effects every time someone gets punched and that jittery jazz music that so doesn't fit the fight scene at the guys house??

Terror of Mechagodzilla (1875)

"DUNNNNN TLIIIIII TO ETHCAPE URTHLIIIIIIIIING, OR UUUUUULLLLL FORTTTTTTHHHHH UTHHHHHH TO KHHHHHHHIIIILLLLLLLL UUUUUUUUUUUU" (where did that German accent come from??)

Godzilla 1985

That red headed step child military official.

Godzilla Vs. Biollante (1989)

Pretty much what Irish said.

Godzilla Vs. King Ghidorah (1991)

Great film but seriously going back and forth with "let's erase godzilla from history" - oh no, king ghidorah's here, lets get godzilla back to kill him - oh no we screwed ourselves again, godzillas gonna kill us, lets get king ghidorah, mechanize him, and get rid of godzilla again. Pretty laughable but ok, at least it worked for a Godzilla film.

Godzilla & Mothra: The Battle for Earth (1992)

The fact that Battra was apparantly more dangerous in larvae form than in adult form due to losing its horn lightning. What was up with that??? Also horrendous acting.

Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla (1993)

The stupid romance subplot with Oki and whats her face. Boring.

Godzilla Vs. Spacegodzilla (1994)

3 words. BEAM WAR BATTLE.

Godzilla Vs. Destoroyah (1995)

The fact that that stupid nerd always has apocalyptic bad news or bad news in general to whats going on and always seems rather unaffected or calm/collected about it.

Godzilla 2000 (1999)

"I think it'll go through Godzilla like CRAP THROUGH A GOOSE." ( . . . . . LMAO . . . . um ok)

Godzilla X Megaguiras (2000)

The whole human story.

Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack (2001)

The fact that TOHO wouldn't allow Kaneko to go with his original concept of Varan and Angurias instead of King Ghirdorah and Mothra. I guess TOHO will never give Varan his due recognition. Also the whole mysticism origin of Godzilla didn't fit in my eyes.

Godzilla X Mechagodzilla (2002)

The whole "lets put Godzilla's bones in MechaGodzilla" I'll admit is somewhat creative and yet totally far fetched for a film, which at the same time, is trying to be more realistic with MechaGodzilla having a power limit.

Godzilla X Mothra X Mechagodzilla: Tokyo SOS (2003)

A whole lot of "BEEN THERE, SEEN THAT."

Godzilla: Final Wars (2004)

As much as I really love this film, its def not without its downfalls and negatives. Biggest one is the same thing I said about Destroy All Monsters. For a film called, Godzilla: Final Wars and godzilla's retirement film, you'd think we'd get way more monster action and time given those circumstances.

Gojira - Let's go with the hand-puppet. It really is probably the weakest part of the film.
GRA - The science lesson. I know it's not as bad in the Japanese version, but there's still that awkward meeting.
KKvs.G - I often feel as though Godzilla's menace is a little underplayed. He destroys some tanks and a military base...and then just kinda goes for a walk on the countryside for the duration of the film.
Mvs.G - Hmmm...tough to find one here for me so...how about how Godzilla is super interested in the egg, then fights Mothra and suddenly doesn't care about the egg at all anymore? I mean, that actually plays into his depiction as a wild rampaging animal in the film, but it is a bit odd.
Ghidrah - The slipshod effects work. Godzilla's breath is only roto-scoped once, and the way Rodan's beak looks like it almost falls off...
Gvs.MZ - There's some weird stuff with placement going on here...isn't King Ghidorah stated to be in the US? But then he's attacking Japan and Godzilla/Rodan? It never seems to sit right to me. Also, why is self-destructing escaping into the future?
^These are all such MINOR complaints, I have very little to complaint about for most of these films.
Ebirah - Giant Condor. Also, we never get to see the Red Bamboo again. That stinks.
SoG - The Godzilla suit is terrible. I mean, just terrible.
DAM - just about any scene with the human cast. Dull as dishwater.
Revenge - Aside from the stock footage, I would have liked a bit more Godzilla and Minya, like right at the very end of the film.
GvH - OTHER than flying Godzilla? The fight scenes are terrible.
GvG - The stock footage. This movie would be one of the BEST Godzilla movies if not for the stock footage.
GvMeg - The stock footage usage is even lazier here than in Gigan. Also, the kid...my god, the kid...most annoying Kenny ever.
GvMG - Some of the stuff with King Seesar is really clunky. The song is too long too...talk about a show-stopper.
ToMG - Were ape prosthesis not in the budget? It's a little too somber and depressing for my tastes, too.
G85 - The eyes on the suit. Too much white under the irises. The eyes on the Cybot are way better than those on the actual suit. Also, would have liked to get to know any of the Super X crew.
GvB - The floating ghost-head of benevolence and peace.
GvKG - Most of the time travel stuff, and certainly every scene actually taking place in the past, and definitely any of M11's cringe-inducing effects.
GvM - Its existence.
GvMGII - The magical healing plant of the south seas. And the entire scene with the flying pteranodon in the Baby enclosure, oh my god, it's awful.
GvSG - Little Godzilla is taken hostage and then..........????? for the purpose of........?????
GvD - All the psuedo-science around Godzilla...oh my goodness. "Now it will be a meltdown instead of an explosion...Now he will melt down at precisely 1200 degrees..." ugh. At what point did Godzilla start wearing equipment to monitor his vitals and send it back to these people for detailed analysis?
G2K - The UFO before the rocks get blasted off of it looks like a flying turd.
GxM - Megaguirus has to be the worst executed flying creature in the history of the Godzilla universe.
GMK - The flaws in the Godzilla suit is really distracting once you notice it and all the stuff with the old prophet dude is terrible "Yes, when he made that gesture in the cell"...ummm WHAT? "Wait, did you see that? It's not there anymore" what? what isn't there? I've watched this movie a bunch of times and I still don't know.
GxMG - The Godzilla suit is too stiff whenever not involved in direct hand-to-hand combat. I get what they were trying to do, but it failed.
TSOS - The Mothra stuff just plain straight doesn't work. Why is Mothra helping them if they were just warned that Mothra WOULDN'T help them? The editing of the fights leaves a lot to be desired too.
GFW - I don't think anyone ever really wanted or needed the "Xiliens saved us" red herring stuff. Chop out that, chop out Hedorah's cameo.
