Godzilla Minus One is going down in history as a legendary movie since it reminded hardcore Godzilla fans what he once was: An unstoppable force of atomic destruction. That is what makes it so special, and making Godzilla 50 meters tall again is great since it isn’t competing to be the tallest Godzilla incarnation. A special Godzilla for the books.

I never get tired of watching the original Godzilla, Shin Godzilla and Godzilla Minus One

I think it’s very interesting how Minus One got popular (and it appealed to audiences in the western world, too). Most movies today get popular because of hype, big name actors, and mass marketing. But Minus One got popular in a more retro (and better) way. Its success was mainly due to word of mouth and how people told other people about just how amazing it is. Movies getting success and becoming popular in this fashion isn't as common as it was in the 20th century and stuff. So it's cool how this movie's popularity was spread in this fashion :)

@@cradodragmire1563 I agree with your main comment. I've pretty much always held Gojira to be the best in the series. That said, I think Minus One is a better all-around movie, especially in terms of human characters and story. The growing relationship between Koichi and Noriko, the similarly growing threat of a new nuclear threat just a few years after the bombs, all of it ties together so well. And it's a GREAT version of Godzilla, absolutely evil in a way we've never seen before. Regarding recency to the events, Gojira is almost 10 years after the bombs. Minus One is literally just a couple years after.

@@AntiNubDevice Okay but the "never before" part is whats getting me. GMK is still the most evil Godzilla. Minus One is still an angry animal and not pure evil. I would still say GMK is the only "evil" Godzilla. Sort of the plot of the movie he wants to wipe out humanity and is willed on by the spirits who also want humanity gone. GMK makes the most direct active effort and it is spoon-feed you on screen a lot more that he is aiming for people. Even making jokes at the expense of his evil such as the hospital scene where he intentionally lets a person think they will live.

Godzilla is my favorite movie franchise of all time. I've watched these movies since I was a little kid and to this day, they're still so much fun to watch. Some of my favorites are Godzilla 1985, Godzilla 2000, Godzilla vs MechGodzilla 2, Final Wars, the Monsterverse Godzilla movies, Godzilla Against MechaGodzilla, and Godzilla Minus One. Long live the king.

I feel like this list is totally legit! I haven't watched every Godzilla movie, but it's at the top of my list for me. I grew up more so seeing the Showa era of movies as a kid and it wasn't until October last year that I seen the original that I understood how Godzilla began and Minus One went back to the drawing board that makes the first movie and second make absolute sense for this list!

The top 3 shown here are in my top 3 as well, except Original is 2nd and Minus One is 1st.

My top 5 favorites would probably be the hottest take but whatever 1. A New Empire 2. Gojira 3. Minus One 4. King of the Monsters 5. Godzilla vs Destroyah

I clicked the Top 10 Godzilla Villains video out of curiosity, and ever since then I have become a huge admirer of Kaiju movies! Last year I saw Godzilla Minus One at the cinema, then watched as it won an Oscar! Seeing this list now, it feels like it has all come around!

Can’t remember my first godzilla movie but I do remember how I first watched them, on tnt’s godzilla marathon

Godzilla minus one and Godzilla and Kong: A new empire were my favorites. 🎉

Hoping fathom events or someone does a nationwide showing of Godzilla Vs Biollante. My personal favorite of the franchise and deserves a proper reshowing.

The Boat Chase Sequence in _Minus One_ is *EPIC*

Godzilla Against MechaGodzilla (2002), Tokyo SOS, Godzilla 2000 & Godzilla Raids Again should've been in the top 10. Minus One is my all time favorite.

First time I was fully introduced to Godzilla was through an old VHS tape my late dad had of the movie Godzilla vs The Sea Monster (AKA Ebirah: Horror of the Deep) and that was when my interest in Big G was born.

Far as I can remember, it was what was then called MONSTER ZERO (today called INVASION OF ASTRO MONSTER). 1973, New York's Channel 11. Been hooked since.

My favorite of the Godzilla movies is Ghidra the Three-Headed Monster. My least favorite is Godzilla Monster Wars, or, as I like to think of it, Project 9 from Outer Space with Toho monsters instead of zombies.

Godzilla: Final Wars easily in my top 5 might have been a flop revenue wise, but Don Frye delivered a masterclass😂

A small fun fact about Godzilla Final Wars is that the US Godzilla (dubbed Zilla for the movie) made an appearance in the movie and was quickly taken out by Godzilla with a tail swipe that sent it flying into the Sydney Opera House. 🤣

My first Godzilla movie was Mothra vs Godzilla, but I saw it under the title Godzilla vs the Thing.

I would put final wars higher, that movie is just like a dream come true

Back then when Blockbuster was around the first Godzilla movie. I ever watched as a kid when he was rented was Godzilla versus monster zero. Yeah my parents rented most of the Godzilla movies in Blockbuster when it was around now I have the whole collection I’m just collecting some of the action figures at the big G himself.

Godzilla vs destoroyah is an emotional film not just because Godzilla dies. It’s an emotional masterpiece period. Like the relation of Godzilla and Junior grow just to have destoroyah kill Junior. Godzilla cries out and goes to his son. He breathes life into him then melts down and dies after saving him. That’s what punches me in the gut is that scene and seeing Miki cry over Junior, who she raised.

Wasn't there an american cartoon from the 1970s/early 80s about Godzilla and a baby one that could fly, or was it something else? i just vaguely remember it.

Minus One is easily the best Modern Godzilla Film

King of the Monsters have to be the best monsterverse film. Better than the first on and vs Kong. I’m not saying it should be any higher than most the Japanese films but easily the best western one.

Sorry, I gotta be that guy... Mothra wasn't in Final Wars, and Rodan was his enemy in the film. Yes, Rodan was "mind controlled", but he didn't become an ally.
