I agree with you for the most part except the whole "hero" thing. This Godzilla is an anti-hero/force of nature trying to keep the planet in balance by staying as the top predator and such.SomeknowmeasXeno wrote:Exactly. Legendary is not playing by japanese monster movie rules, they're essentially going the western super-hero movie route for all intents and purposes, only the super-hero is a giant irradiated reptile, and G'14 is the origins movie of the series. Like I've said, compare Tony's time as Iron Man in Iron Man 1 to 2 and 3: pretty big difference and 'Iron Man' gets more screen time as the series goes on: that's how things are going to be for the Legendary Godzilla films. It's the standard, and Godzilla got the right amount of screen time for the movie. Granted, it would have been nice to see the hawaii fight but Godzilla was still handled well and given appropriate screen time regardless.
Let's be honest. This Godzilla is docile to humans who views them as nothing but mosquitoes and bees for the most part but if humans in the later sequels causes an imbalance to the earth. Godzilla will definitely start being antagonistic towards them.
