I only said I was worried about them. I also said I was 8 years old at the time.

I guess it really depends on one's connection to this film as well. For me it was my first Godzilla film in theaters and my first "serious" G film other then KOTM.

I will never say a bad word about 1985 other then Godzilla's eyes being silly at times. It's a charished childhood memory that has never diminished and for me personally is the measuring stick that no other Heisei Godzilla film can even come close to measuring up to. Biollante is second in my eyes, the rest are all distant.

Where did the past 25 years go? It seems like yesterday.

Your blog about the building reminded me Armand. When in Japan last October, we spent 3 nights in Shinjuku and one day walked through the skyscraper district specifically because it was featured so prominently in the movie and I pointed out several buildings I recognized to my wife. It was my goal to find the building that Godzilla passed out into and later knocked over on the Super X. With a little help from google maps, I was successful! (and to top it off, our next item that afternoon was going to a godzilla toy store in Akihabara!)

^That's a great shot! I can see the tax towers in the background.

I'm also one of this generation of new G-fans which 85 created here in the U.S. I can remember the toys on the shelves and I was huge into monsters/dinosaurs/etc, like most boys.
