This. I thought SpaceGodzilla would have been awesome after owing the Trendmasters toy as a kid but the movie was a major letdown. The last time that I seen the movie was back in 2001 when we move into our new house, and I have not seen it since then (I had the movie since it's Tristar VHS release).

Spacegodzilla is my favorite Toho monster. He's got a cool design, cool powers, and he just OOZES personality. Few other Toho kaiju have as much personality as he does.

I don't see how he oozes personality, to be honest.

I get what he means. Unlike a lot of other villain in the series, who are just there to be villains, SpaceGodzilla has this wicked, I'm-gonna-kill-all-your-children-and-pets fell to him. It's one of the apects of his move that I enjoy most.

So yeah, cool baddie with interesting powers, but in a bad movie.

I like his design, his powers, his total ass-fucking insanity, but yet again I must say he was cursed with a horribly executed movie.

I think he's a pretty boring monster. As far a "lesser" Kaiju go; Megaguirus, Battra, and even Orga are more compelling. Though at least he wasn't portrayed through the use of Bandai toys...

No, I'm not. He's got more personality than anything post-Showa, save for maybe Grand King Ghidorah and a couple Mothras.

The only personality he has is a pedo. He can't have kidnapped Little Goji for the sake of it, could he?

So are IR and I the only ones that feel SpaceGodzilla has personality then?

Yes, but look at it this way: it makes you special.

I agree that SpaceGodzilla had a nice amount of personality. An insane one, but a personality nonetheless.

Spacegodzilla is probably my favorite Kaiju that was created in the Heisei series. His beam is probably the coolest out of all beams from the 90's and he's just so darn evil! I love him

I like Spacegodzilla, even if he is a re-colored Super Godzilla. I think he's too overpowered though.

Consider the source. He was based on Super Godzilla. If SuperG isn't the very definition of overpowered, I don't know what is.

But Super Godzilla never used crystals like Spacegodzilla. Bagan was reasonably daunting, and Super Godzilla was still just as susceptible to dying.

Pssh. Destoroyah would rape Spacegodzilla and then crap on his shiny crystals. SG trapped baby goji. DESTOROYAH killed. Goji jr. And accelerated gojis meltdown.
