Worst scene or sequence from a heisei film

Hoping to stir up some interesting conversation... Many fans liked the heisei films as being a modern, somewhat more serious take on the Godzilla series, but in spite of bigger budgets and newer special effects there were still some awkward moments and scenes that, well, took a lot of the seriousness out of the films. As per the thread title, what would you rank as the worst??
My vote goes to GvsMG2, when Godzilla picks up MechaGodzilla by the head and proceeds to flail him around in the air like a giant piece of styrofoam. I've seen clips of some of the stuff they cut out of the film and it blows my mind why they left that in there in lieu of some of the deleted scenes.
Well, lets see what you guys come up with.

Nowadays I find most of the Heisei series to be virtually unwatchable. I wonder if in 5 years I'll look back at the millenium series the same way( I already do about Megagirus).

Its funny how the 60s films can stand the test of time, mostly due to the fact that they were made with care and not just cookie cutter movies churned out every december to fill Tohos need for a SFX movie a year.

As for the worst sequence....hands down the Mogera/Space G fight in the astroid belt....the most embarrasing scene in any G movie since the 70s, and quite possibly ever....

Another thing that really bothered me about GVMGII was the Rodan puppet. It looked so bad. The close ups of the head, the wings the couldn't fold at all, and barely flapped. The slow motion flying over the city and stuff just blowing up underneath. Rodan snatching the truck and the terrible landing with it.

There's this one scene in GvsSG, where we get to see some astrounats floating around in a shuttle just before being attacked by one of Spacegodzilla's crystals. The acting was hilarious, but the matte effects completely sucked! It makes me cringe every time I see it.

My vote goes to the Godzillasaurus scene in Godzilla vs King Ghidorah; in particular, the part where it is attacking the US troops. Ouch.

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but in GvsSG, there's a shot of an explosion where you can see rubble bouncing off the camera.

I fell over laughing when I saw that. :lol:

Definitly the space fight between Moguera and Spacegodzilla in Godzilla vs. Spacegodzilla. Then again, it could be the butt scene.

the worst sequence is when m-11 from GvKG runs around and when he was in the jungle also.
