Any other Godzilla fans here?

[CeeKay]

I'm kind of a fan.  I'm looking forward to 'Final Wars'.  I hear the Americanized monster makes an appearance in it and gets it's but whupped

[Blackadar]

Yup.

My all time favorite:

Godzilla vs. The Smog Monster

[Ascendent]

Huge Godzilla fan. Get a lot of flack for it because its just two japanese guys in rubber monster suits fighting, but dammit its still good watching.

YESS!!!! Godzilla, Gamera, you name it.

My son is too!  (I swear, this is the last time I post this)



He has requested Godzilla on his birthday cake this year

[th'FOOL]

btw, have you heard of Godzilla: Final Wars?  It's like a modern Destroy All Monsters.  Something like 25 monsters are supposed to appear in it.  Godzilla even takes down the American Godzilla.  I can only imagine how satisfying watching that will be....

[hepcat]

I actually enjoyed the Gamora (spelling?) movies released over the last 5 or 6 years.  Much has changed since the day of little boys in short pants becoming best friends with giant godzilla and friends.

[EngineNo9]

Yeah, I'm pretty psyched about that Final Wars!  I hope that it gets some good showings here in the states.  

I have heard that this is going to be the last Godzilla film from the ToHo company, although I've also heard it will be more like a 10 year hiatus.  Either way we probably won't be getting much more giant monster loving for a while after this.   :cry:

Cool!  I've never heard of this.  Not that we'll be able to watch it here for a while probably but when is it coming out?

[Zekester]

Another big fan here.

Godzilla:DAMM is still one of my all-time favorite games, and i'd love to see a modern turn-based or RTS based on Godzilla for the PC.

Favorite movie?
Man, that's a tough choice!
Maybe "Destroy All Monsters" or "vs. Cosmic Monster" or "vs. Smog Monster"
See, I can't decide  

[th'FOOL]

Not sure when it's coming out, but I read that there was going to be a simultaneous release in Japan and the US

[Godzilla Blitz]

Because of my log-in name, I feel obligated to post in any thread with Godzilla in the title, but I'm actually not a big Godzilla fan. I enjoy the movies, but that's about as far as it goes.

Having said that, I've got a friend who once said, "Most movies would benefit from an appearance of Godzilla." I'd have to agree. Think of any movie you've seen. Add Godzilla. Better movie, right?

[Zekester]

To this day, when I blow smoke during the winter months I think of Godzilla movies!

I think I have all you Big G fan-wannabes beat!

err...maybe I shouldn't be boasting about that  :oops:  :wink:

[Siljanus]

Titanic could have used an appearance of Godzilla in it...

Personally I apply that theory using Don Rickles as the subject.  Think of the beauty and awe that "Interview with a Vampire starring Don Rickles as LeStat" would've inspired in audiences worldwide

[Tareeq]

All is revealed...

yet spoiler-free!

We hope the children who love Godzilla, the people who used to love Godzilla and the youngsters who have never seen Godzilla films at the cinema before all enjoy "Godzilla Final Wars". For Godzilla is the brightest dream and at the same time is the most horrific nightmare of the Japanese cinema.

It's called "Innocent Blood."

Another bigtime fan of the Big G right here. When I heard about Final Wars I about leapt out of my chair for joy. Watching Man-In-Suit butchslap the GINO (Godzilla In Name Only) is something I'll be able to enjoy in freeze-frame for years to come on DVD.

And don't forget about the new fighting game coming out for PS2 and XBox on November 2nd, Godzilla: Save the Earth!  Adds more monsters and ONLINE butt-stomping action!

Now if only I could get a copy of that PS2 Ultraman game and play it on my US PS2  

[archipelago]

While you're at it, seek out The Creatures' (Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie from the Banshees) excellent track "Godzilla!"

Quite a fitting tribute!

"Godzilla - He trashes cars! Godzilla - he's not from Mars!"

[gameoverman]

I'm a long time Godzilla movie fan, but only of what I consider to be the 'originals'.  Those are the ones they showed during 'creature features' when I was a kid.  The ones made in the later years,  and the ones featuring mechanical crap, I just ignore.

My favorite is 'Destroy All Monsters' because I love watching them fight.

You had me at online!  You had me at online!

[SuperHiro]

GOJILAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa

[dbt1949]

I saw the original one as a kid at the  movie theater. Scared the crap out of me. I've always been a fan of that one.
Usually I watch the monster movies anymore to see the little model cities and watch them get destroyed.
Rhodan was another good one.(the original movie)

No way Zekester!  Not only did I imagine myself Godzilla while blowing that smoke on cold winter days, but I even played Godzilla with my brother and sister.  I use to put a long blanket in the back of my pants for his tail and battle my brother and sister.  We used pillows and blankets to throw around imagining them as buildings and such.  I can't tell you how many times I acted out every Godzilla movie I ever saw.  My brother got really creative one day when he used a can of silly string and sprayed it at me while he was playing the part of Mothra.  Of course, I let it wrap me up and fell to the floor only to lift my head and fire my atomic breath at that slimy caterpillar!  I use to also pretend I was Godzilla coming out of the ocean when in my swimming pool.  I could also do a pretty good imitation of Godzilla's trademark roar and mannerisms.

Did I just admit all this? :shock:

Long live Godzilla!!!!

[Starshifter]

Is anyone here really pissed about the ending to "King Kong vs. Godzilla?"

There is no way King Kong could have one that fight.  Let's debate.

[jimmyorr99]

I'm really psyched about Godzilla: Save the Earth.  The online stuff should be a lot of fun.  I went looking for a site for the game and came across this: http://www.atari.com/godzilla/godzilla-main.html  Tell me what you all think about the game now.  It's nice, heh?

[EngineNo9]

You know, I have to admit that I've never actually seen King Kong vs. Godzilla.   Shame on me, I know.  I've always thought it would be awesome to watch, but of course Godzilla would kick his ass!

[Zekester]

From what I understand, Godzilla "wins" in the Japanese version of the movie.
I actually have that movie, but have not watched it yet.

The Atari forums are filled with info on the new game coming, and it sounds awesome.
There's a bunch of fans there that are real hardcore, too  :shock:

[DD]

The saddest part of the GINO movie was that a CGI Big G could have kicked ten kinds of ass, yet it utterly and completely sucked.  Such a waste...

[SkyLander]

[Hamsterball_Z]

MOTHRA!!!

Chicks dig him.

[Hamsterball_Z]

And now for a little Blue Oyster Cult

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down
 
Helpless people on a subway train
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them
 
He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town
 
Oh no, they say he's got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah
 
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Godzilla ga Ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!

Oh no, they say he's got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah

History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Godzilla!

Nice.  I hadn't seen too many people talking about the game in here and wanted to hear people's opinions.  I for one am excited to get out there and tear through the maps.  It oughtta be a lot of fun.

I did not know that there was a Japanese version!  :o

Where did you get the movie?  I would love to have a copy of the Japanese version.  I will go ahead and try a search on the Internet to see what I come up with.

[Zekester]

RE: Stardrifter

Ebay

I also have the Japanese version of "Terror of Mechagodzilla" which is supposed to have a shot of real boobies  

[jimmyorr99]

Zekester, I found one of those fansites you were talking about that has some cool network play on it.  Looks pretty good to me: http://www.kaijuhq.org/gste.html

[EngineNo9]

Nice, Jimmy, that site has some nice info about what has changed in the new game and some screenshots that showcase the way the terrain has changed with hills and cliffs and such.  I'm getting more and more excited about this one all the time.  

Oh, and don't forget what comes out tomorrow!  
(there are also 3 and 5 DVD set releases with some different discs to celebrate the 50th anniversary)

[jimmyorr99]

Me too.  The more I see the more hyped up I get.  I'm looking forward to getting online and fighting with all the different monsters...especially Space Godzilla.  He's my favorite.

[Zekester]

I guees 56K would be lousy for the game?

Damn, I need to get broadband back  :x

[jimmyorr99]

I'm gonna be all over the online play.  I think it will be a lot of fun to play with all the monsters against a bunch of people that are fans too.  Hopefully people will get into this.
