That's actually why I have a soft spot for vs. Mothra: Battle For Earth and vs. Spacegodzilla... specifically because both (the latter in particular) have moments of cinematography that transcend their era. (Indeed, one of the reasons Ebirah, Son of, and vs. Biollante are my favorites is the stunning cinematography of certain sections).Mr_Goji_and_Watch wrote:There's a lot of flat cinematography in the series. A good chunk of the post-1967 Showa films and the 90's Heisei flicks look "made for TV." Even then the Golden Age films never go beyond just good looking. The original Godzilla and Rodan have great shots and it's a shame they couldn't keep up the camerawork.
Consistently great, no. But each of them offer tantalizing glimmers.
