Godzilla as "giant monster pro wrestling" as he's often reduced to in the US, still works. Japan loves pro-wrestling, and it's kind of cooked into Showa Godzilla's DNA. On top of that, Monarch Legacy of Monsters just proved that Godzilla can still do dramatic even when it's not a TOHO or Japanese production. One thing I am going to ultimately resent about Godzilla Minus One is how people use it as a point to bash the rest of the franchise and talk about how "not as good" the other movies are. It got old after the first weekend, and is now kind of annoying. We get it, Godzilla Minus One was great, but that doesn't give me a reason to bash the other movies and certainly doesn't mean it's the only take and tone for Godzilla I want to see.

This reminds me of a tweet shortly after Minus One released that said something along the line of "Japan understands that Godzilla embodies the horror of nuclear weapons, the american one fights with a monkey." As if the japanese one didn't also fight with the same monkey decades ago, and hey, at least the american one won against said monkey. Minus One is a fantastic movie, but it really highlights how people on the internet really don't care about Godzilla as a franchise at all, a lot of discourse around the movie is about how they can understand the obvious metaphor and treat it like it's some of the most profound message ever put to screen, and use it to fuel their culture war. I'd argue that the entire kamikaze angle and character arc of the protagonist is the most interesting part of the movie, as it's something that the franchise never attempted before.

Starting off grounded only to become more fantastical shortly is part of the franchise's identity, and it should be embraced, not shunned.

Like, dude, the MonsterVerse starts off in a 9/11-like scenario with Titans and then Kong: Skull Island rolls up with a fantasy island full of flora/fauna hybrid monsters and Hollow Earth theories, which is the big selling point being elaborated further and further as the series goes on.

Like Godzilla could be taking down battleships in the ocean without any side knowing that it’s actually a giant monster, increasing tensions as both nations blame each other for it until the big reveal. I guess that SOMEWHAT happened in Godzilla 1985…kind of…

What surprises me is now that Godzilla is popular, I have a bunch of people from my childhood asking me about the new movies. It made new fans, and that's great. I guess what I am getting at is that Skipper's video feels like a new age version of shitting on "that rubber suit shit" except now it seems to come from people who are up their own ass while being stupid.

Not actually coming from any reference or authority on Godzilla and it’s past.

Fanstastic video! Skipper's video very clearly was made to cash in on the dumb "culture war" "hollywood vs. non hollywood" thing that so many people are trying to do. Because if he actually did even a bit of research his video wouldn't exist because he'd realize, "oh this is just objectively not true." Godzilla like Batman or Spider-Man or the Gundam franchsie or Superman, can be super serious and talk about serious themes and messages. But they can also just be goofy fun. It's very sad so many people are being elitist about Godzilla because of Minus One. If you prefer the serious films that's fine but to act like the goofy ones can't exist alongside them is elitist and stupid. I rambled, fantastic video!

Doctor Skipper’s video is an excellent example of “Do some research on your topic before you state your case.”

THANK YOU DUDE. I commented on the video because I passionately disagreed with his stance of the original 1954 kotm Godzilla as a movie that strips the Japanese version of its narrative significance. Didn’t expect anyone to share my opinion so I let it go but I’m glad real Godzilla fans agree.

The reason I'm on both teams (monsterverse and minus one) is no matter which one fails or which one succeeds I always come out on top

2:37 In Toho's defense, they made a list of conditions that the team could follow if they decided to continue with it. As the team outright says, the conversations between them were "pleasant and cordial". Toho didn't force them to adhere to their conditions, the team were given free choice, and they willingly chose to accept said conditions. As anybody who understands copyright and trademark knows, too much unlicensed or misappropriated Godzilla could remove him from the protection of trademark law. They HAVE to be aggressive with their IP if they want to keep Godzilla from becoming generic.

Like, -1 and Shin have their way to potray Godzilla. Monsterverse has its way. And guess what? They both worked. Why? Because both are consistant on how unstoppable this guy is

I'm just gonna go ahead and say I fucking called it. Minus one is drawing out people that this fandom doesn't want and that don't want anything to do with the fandom. this is fine people can do there own thing but when you start spouting off nonsense that's when were gonna have issues. the amount of times I've heard Godzilla minus one called the best Godzilla movie ever because its the least like the other Godzilla movies doesn't exactly make me happy to know the films doing so well. the fact that so much of the anti-hollywood/ anti-disney crowd is championing the movie also isn't a good thing.

I bet this guy has never seen the best Godzilla series ever. GODZILLAND

he 1954 Godzilla and the one that appeared from 1955-1975 are two different characters despite sharing the same name, as the former died in his debut film from the Oxygen Destroyer. While the second Godzilla started as a villain, he slowly developed into a hero. Plus, throughout the Showa era, they still kept his origin the same, it's just they turned it into something more positive than hanging onto Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but in a more natural way. Raids Again, he was fighting Anguirus purely for territorial reasons. KK vs. G, it was for territorial reasons. He was also the villain, there. Mothra vs. Godzilla, he was the villain, Ghidorah is the start of his redemption arc, as Mothra persuades him and Rodan to fight the bigger threat which is the space dragon. Here, we also delve into Godzilla's feelings towards humanity in a way that relates to us, as he just wanted to be left alone, but the military kept "bullying" him and Rodan. From that point forward, as long as humanity left him alone, he did the same. In Invasion of the Astro Monster, he only became a threat when he got brainwashed by the Xilians. TBH, he didn't become a full superhero until Vs. Hedorah, and even then he still glared at humanity after defeating Hedorah, warning them if they create something like it again, he'll go after them. Meanwhile, in the MonsterVerse, he was a protector from the very start, and his atomic powers are 100% natural, even before the Castle Bravo tests. Godzilla's character in the MV feels less nuanced compared to the Showa era.

I think where he got the public domain thing from is when godzilla vs. megalon wasn't trademarked in the us dub so many people that it was public domain (which is why there was a bunch of vhs tapes of the movie)

Godzilla's versatility in story telling is what makes him so popular and loved. While I grew up watching Showa era goofiness where those are my favorite. Someone will have a completely different experience than me, and that's okay.

Hard disagree that it's "just his opinion." Roger Ebert once said the following: "So let's focus on those who seriously believe "Transformers" is one of the year's best films. Are these people wrong? Yes. They are wrong. I am fond of the story I tell about Gene Siskel. When a so-called film critic defended a questionable review by saying, "after all, it's opinion," Gene told him: "There is a point when a personal opinion shades off into an error of fact. When you say 'The Valachi Papers' is a better film than 'The Godfather,' you are wrong." Quite true. We should respect differing opinions up to certain point, and then it's time for the wise to blow the whistle. Sir, not only do I differ with what you say, but I would certainly not fight to the death for your right to say it. Not me. You have to pick your fights."

Like it's one thing to say "I like Micheal Bay's Transformers better than the Godfather" and it's quite another to say shit like "the visual effects in CW's Flash are amazing state of the art VFX work while James Cameron's Avatar films are cheap and look like utter shit". One is a statement of personal opinion which can't be wrong regardless of the film's quality unless the person sharing this take is lying about their personal preference for whatever reason, while the other is a statement of fact that can easily be disproven. People act like nothing is objective in films, and while that might be accurate to say about people's response to said films it certainly isn't the case for what actually goes into making them, there are rules and standards to make a film that works, and while rules and such can be broken and twisted for interesting creative intent it still needs to be done with purpose to yield the desired response, just like critics can't just say whatever failing even basic fact checking and expect people to eat it up.

Toho is so strict about it’s copyright. They even made a joke about it in the 3rd Austin Powers movie. “Run!! It’s Godzilla!!” “It looks like Godzilla, but due to international copyright law, it’s not.” “Still we should run like it is Godzilla!!!” “Though it isn’t.” “AHHH!!!”

I like tokusatsu and rubber monsters, and I have to say, I appreciate videos like this in these topics. I hope you blow up your channel :)

He Will Always Be A Godzilla

One thing I have found annoying ever since Minus One came out is the thought Godzilla needs to be serious movies, and the monstervese is trash. I think you mentioned it, but they’re trying to do their own thing. The monsterverse has alright humans, but the Monsters have the main focus and get the most characterization in the movies. After 2014, they all became super expressive and the main characters. Minus one is about the humans and their interpersonal conflicts, with Godzilla being a force of destruction that people need to work with to defeat. And a lot of those people forget that the Godzilla movies have been just as silly and ridiculous to an extent, even after the Showa era. I think Godzilla is great as a fun action movie and a fantastic critique of the world. 1954 and Minus One are my favorite Godzilla films, but Final Wars is my third favorite.

His subjective opinion is objectively shit.

Skipper’s editing style is a pain to watch, how am I supposed to take him seriously if he edits his content like it’s made for KZread Kids? It just leaves me feeling insulted, if anything.

Fantastic video! Very mature, and well put together. One small correction though: Ishiro Honda did direct a lot of showa films, but he was actually very (respectfully) outspoken about how he didn’t think that the goofy Godzilla was what he wanted. But he was a very respectful man, and put his faith in the producer knowing what needed to be done for the company and the franchise. But even into the end of the showa era, Ishiro Honda did not want Godzilla to be goofy. He tried to course correct a bit when he did Terror of Mechagodzilla.

couldn't even sit through the original video because of how insane the editing on it was.

For some reason fans of Minus 1 and Shin seem to think that Godzilla being a good guy is a purely American thing when in reality Japan did it first and WAY more often

I love how the entire godzilla community is practically crucifying him

Minus One is a pretty good movie, saw it on opening weekend in December to start the holiday season(Whole theater nearly crowded lol). I also cannot wait to see Godzilla x Kong The New Empire this year on opening day!
