Showa Godzilla films with best and worst special effects

[Cimmerian Dragon]

No worries. I was slapping my head at his post too.

^ I know, it was just a bit of sarcasm.

my whole post was this. ^^

the suit in that film most definitely had pupils. that puppet shot, however, always looked like blank white eyes to me. and i love his crazy crooked teeth. also, his skin was really rad, like a burned up H bomb freddy kruger. accounting for all the limitations they had to work with, i think what they pulled together portrayed the monster perfectly in that film. IMO anyway.

The point is, the puppet does have pupils. It just doesn't look like it does in that particular shot.

I definitely agree with you there. The SFX aren't as polished as in the original, but I think Godzilla Raids Again looks damn good regardless. Aside from those occasional sped-up monster shots, the battles between the the two look natural and ferocious, and both monsters enjoy natural-looking suits and acting.

^ I agree. For how rushed of a production it was, I think everything came out looking pretty good. The immobile "wind-up" Godzilla seen on the icy island during the climax is one of the more glaring SPX, IMO.

it always looked like a toy or something, but is it really a wind up? if so, than royal lolz for that one.

Yup, it sure was.

I kinda have a question about Godzilla 1954's atomic breath… The scenes where his atomic breath is more like him blowing on things and they explode into flames, what would be an accurate definition of that?
He blows radioactive wind that explodes on contact?

You could say that. (It was really water being sprayed XD)

Best: Godzilla.

Worst: Godzilla.

Sometimes within the same scene.

The scene in MvG where Godzilla rises up out of the ground is pretty damn good. The part where he shakes the dirt off himself is a nice touch. Actually, most of the stuff in MvG is pretty good.

As for the worst... the very end of KKvG. Puppets on sticks fight!
