Gvs.MG2 is a step above the rest to me. It has a lot of the same flaws as some of the other Heisei films, but it manages to overcome them nicely I think.

Except for those singing kids... I hate those kids.

Like everyone else G vs MG 93 is about the best of the series BUT my personal fav is G vs KG 91

Again I must go on my big rant about how much more I enjoy GvsSG over GvsMG'93 because it is full of color, has a nicely relaxed story, has the coolest kaiju ever (SG, of course), a much more impressive mecha than that tin can MG (everyone says MOGUERA was a downgrade from MG, but could MG fly at Mach 44 in space? Could it drill straight into a kaiju? Could it seperate into multiple forms?). MG just seemed like an uninspired sequel to GvsKG and GvsM'92 with a nuthin' special G-suit, a boring MG design, and a flat-out bad Rodan prop. Baby was cool, though...great suit with great animatronics.

I mean, can one person explain to me what's so special? They say the effects are better, but they weren't exactly ambitious. Nothing was achieved visually in MG that wasn't already achieved in GvsKG or GvsM, unless you count 500,000 more crooked lasers that have no effect other than causing sparks to fly off the monsters.
And the music was pretty good, but way too repetitive. After MG's initial AWESOME intro scene, I started to get sick of that music.
Some say it had great pacing, but I say the nonstop flow of slow-paced battles really hurt the film for me and bored me. I think a movie that did a MUCH better job of having a constant stream of action without getting boring was GxM (which I'm seeing on the big screen tonight! ), because the action scenes were varied and different, having not just constant monster laser shows and bonk contests.
The story relied way too much on nonsensical science that basically says anything that touches radiation comes back to life and gains the ability to shoot fire out its mouth, the same thing that plagues GvsKG (aside from the whole time continuum screwup...but kpa seemed to clear that up for the most part)

Now that I got that off my shoulders...

1. GvsD [Great monster designs, good music, a nice nostalgic story, all-around entertaining]
2. GvsSG [Although a lot of people would disagree with me, I think GvsSG is very enjoyable. I like the settings, the music, the monster designs, this is a good movie to relax too...not tons of action, but a nice movie nonetheless]
3. GvsBio [Great monster, good script, a general feeling of high production values, but suffers from awkward musical arrangement and lack of action]
4. GvsM'92: TBFTE [Not great by any means, but at least it avoids any plot holes and has a good soundtrack...Battra's pretty cool, too]
5. GvsMG'93 [Good-but-overused music, not very ambitious in any way, bad suits in general]
6. GvsKG [Has THE BEST battles ever seen in the Heisei series and some of the best in general, but sadly is pulled down signifigantly by cheesball Futurians with stupid takeover plots and confusing time conundrums]
7. G'85 [Slow, terrible G-suit, bad miniature work, but good soundtrack]

[Mothra]

Godzilla (1985) and Godzilla vs. Biollante. The others, while enjoyable, lacked something these two films had. I just don't know what the heck it is.

[Gman2887]

"Godzilla vs. Biollante" followed closely by "Godzilla 84" or "Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah", don't know which. Then I'd put in "Godzilla vs. Destroyah" as 4th, I find "Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla 2" overrated now-a-days.

My first post here so here it goes.

I've only seen three Heisei Gojira films and only two of those in their original Japanese form.

1. Godzilla vs. Destroyah - pretty Japanese girls, action-packed human interation with the Destroyah monsters, great Akira Ifukube score, sad tone towards the end. I love this film!

2. Godzilla vs. Biollante - like someone said, has a feel of high production values, very believable suits and a story for the humans that was interesting to watch.

3. Godzilla 1985 - this isn't a bad film, but I wish I could see the Japanese version of it. Raymond Burr is cool as Perry Mason, but he annoyed me to death in the '56 American cut of Godzilla: King of the Monsters and he's nothing but a wet blanket here. Cool looking Gojira-suit though.

Hey Drax! Hope that you see some more heisei movies, GvsMGII is especially good.

Welcome to the boards!
