Still, I'm game for giving another U.S. version a chance, even a CGI one as long as it looks like Godzilla.<br /><br />As for using some of the other monsters, my understanding is Toho always wanted too much money for the rights. They should just do like the Marvel comics series and come up with a monster foe for the Big G on their own.Bob Igniziohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03630416222197419152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-57653043500812921012010-03-31T14:26:51.457-07:002010-03-31T14:26:51.457-07:00Jeff and Senski: Thx for the Godzilla movie recomm...Jeff and Senski: Thx for the Godzilla movie recommendations.

When I was growing up, it was pretty much reviled among so-called serious Godzilla fans for its approach, but it's gained in stature since.senskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15469603484774090192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-1937138173056919202010-03-30T11:20:12.676-07:002010-03-30T11:20:12.676-07:00Aw man - Starship Troopers!

I thin Godzilla vs. Mothra is actually a better movie, though. <br /><br />I also have a soft spot for goofier entries like Godzilla vs. The Smog Monster and Godzilla vs. Megalon and the most recent wave of Big G films that Toho made were mostly really good - especially 2001's Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack.Jeff Allardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04265550466781988388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-55050036803935009192010-03-30T10:00:11.393-07:002010-03-30T10:00:11.393-07:00I've been trying to introduce my 7-year-old to...I've been trying to introduce my 7-year-old to old-school Godzilla. If my childhood memory serves, Destroy All Monsters was the most fun film featuring G-Zod -- it featured pretty much every Toho monster under the sun, including my fave, Ghidrah. Do you agree or have a better recommendation?<br /><br />P.S. Yes, the US Godzilla teaser trailer was awesome, with the two fisherman and the big Godzilla eye. Saw it in theaters in front of Starship Troopers.FilmFatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16572370403623288465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-20938233396880580282010-03-30T04:45:05.412-07:002010-03-30T04:45:05.412-07:00Yeah, when you look at it that way, it kind of suc...Yeah, when you look at it that way, it kind of sucks the excitement out of it. But if done with the right attitude and reverence for the character, it could still be fun.
