Favourite Destruction of Miniature Scene

[therealmccoy]

Godzilla raid on the up north NATO base, specifically the part where he smashes the barracks with his gigantic tail. Also, any shot of Godzilla's feet smashing things in Godzilla Raids Again.

If you mean King Kong vs. Godzilla, yeah that was pretty cool. Godzilla melting the tanks was good. I didn't care much for GRA, but I think they did a decent job of trashing minis in that movie, too.

Whoops! Forgot the "'s" for a second there. But yeah, I meant King King vs. Godzilla. I also like the part in Raids Again where Godzilla crushes a small building when he advances on Anguirus at the Osaka castle. You can even see little phone poles!

ALL of Gojira.
King Kong and Godzilla Destroying the Pagoda at the same time.
Godzilla vs Fake Godzilla in the Industrial Zone at Night.

Any scene involving electrical towers, specifically the scene in GtTHM where Rodan picks up Godzilla and drops him on one. Needless to say, it gets crushed most satisfyingly. Also, from what I've seen, Gorath looks pretty spectacular, as it is a disaster film.

I said in another thread, Teruyoshi Nakano's destruction of mini's were cool. He was one of the best at making stuff go boom. Terror of MechaG had some good stuff in it, along with Gigan and Ghidorah's initial attack on Tokyo. Explosions + fire = coolness.

In GKoTM, I like when Godzilla roars at the clock tower and then demolishes it. It seems like an act of anger, something akin to the lighthouse in The Fog Horn.

Ghidorah's attack in GHIDORAH, THE THREE HEADED MONSTER
The UFOs melting a satellite dish in INVASION OF THE ASTRO-MONSTER
Mechagodzilla's attack on Tokyo in TERROR OF MECHAGODZILLA

Monster Zero when Godzilla is stomping the shit out of the countryside, and also the Terrible Trio's attack on Tokyo contains many awesome shots of destruction, especially from Ghidorah

Destroy all Monsters, where G, Rodan, Mothra, and Manda go beserk amongst the barrage of rockets.

Godzilla vs Gigan, KG and Gigan's ten minute orgy of destruction, just plain awesome, even with all the stock footage.

Godzilla vs mechagodzilla, the battle in the refinery, simply badass.

Every scene in Gojira was amazingly done, but I especially love when Godzilla is leaving Tokyo and he picks up the giant bridge and tosses it aside. The music was very quiet in that scene, and everyone was watching from the banks. It really sold his enormous strength and the fact that he was tearing shit up just out of spite. I also loved the effect of the water crashing through the dam / bridge while he walked through the river in Tokyo. VERY convincing and a very good detail.

I LOVED the scene in RoG where he drops the skyscraper on top of the Super X. For me that's the best scene of the movie, maybe the best destruction scene of the franchise. The weight and size are really convincing and you can just imagine what the guys inside of that little titanium coffin are thinking while they see it falling. Godzilla not only demolished our newest and best structures (that were several times larger than even he was), but he also turned them into a weapon against us.

Edit: Sorry, thought this was in the Toho General. Though technically, RoG IS still Showa...

I just want to say this is a hilarious typo, because it still makes sense!

[Dogbert]

The mothra vs godzilla destruction scenes are my favorite!

Stupid spell check!

Let's bring those religious undertones up a notch, shall we? Ha ha!

Yeah, I suppose they were. Well then, all the more appropriate!
