I know opinions and all, but wow, I just got into a debate with someone who said this is the worst in the entire franchise.

... How can someone say this movie is one of the worst of the franchise? Some people, man. Some people.

Out of all the Showa films by Honda, I'd say MvG is one of the weakest.

He needed the protein for sick gains. Does Mothra even lift?

Enemy monsters are just naturally drawn to each other.
I feel that by the '60s we start adhering to alternate universe kaiju logic, even in Mothra vs. Godzilla, ostensibly the '60s Godzilla movie played the most 'straight.'

Random observation - anyone else notice the glowing of Godzilla's fins is a bit mismatched?

I notice that every time I watch the movie... but I don't know why it ended up that way. Honestly, it's a mistake that looks almost natural, like it's the kind of photographic flaw that would manifest if you actually filmed Godzilla.

Yeah, it’s just a misalignment of the rotoscoping during the compositing process. I don’t know for certain exactly how it happens, but I’m pretty sure it’s just the various pieces of film used to create the composite image were not physically lined up well enough as they went through the optical printer.
Here’s an example of the same thing from an outtake of Star Wars:
In this case, it looks like they accidentally put the lightsaber-color film layer in flopped. (Like, it should be a mirror image of what we see here if it were going to properly line up with the blades).

I was watching my Classic Media DVD of Mothra vs Godzilla and I've noticed something I've never seen before. During the fight on the island when the Mothra Larva grabs Godzilla by the tail, you can see where the prop accidentally splits open. I've seen these films dozens of times and I'm still noticing things I've never seen before.

Ha! That's something I always notice but have probably never mentioned before because so much is going on in that sequence it's soon out of mind.

This is still one of my absolute favorite Godzilla films. I love the 64 design, I love the storyline and Godzilla's memorable and grand entrance, the effects are great, the human characters are all memorable. This is classic Godzilla that made me fall in love with giant monsters.
