Change the name?

Post by LSD Jellyfish »

Okay so in the fandom I'm wondering if we should just call G14 Godzilla vs the Mutos. Granted G14 is shorter but I dunno it just sounds so lifeless and cold, especially in the interim between it and G16.
We already have three other films simply called Godzilla. I like Godzilla vs the Mutos better because it's more accurate to what the film is given the amount of focus the Mutos got.

How about "Waiting For Godzilla"?

Or: "The Romance, The Road Trip and Godzilla"?

Or: "Where in The World is Godzilla"?

Or: "Full House, Featuring Godzilla"?

Or: "Soulja Boi Tell 'Em, Big G"?

I think this is humorous. XD

Some ass jockey decided to not crop dust the crowd, dude let off some straight napalm and cleared a 20 ft radius and didn’t flinch, he just moved up closer. I prayed Sandra wouldn’t catch a whiff, talk about Endgame....just gross.

Well, I think GvMUTO works well as an alternate abbreviation for G'14. I know LPG has been tossed around more than once, though.

I think it captures the essence of what the film is perfectly.

Nah, Godzilla vs. the Mutos sounds pretty dumb. It'll also alienate anyone who's already seen the movie, especially if they've never seen another Godzilla movie, and insists it's still Godzilla. Who cares if there's three other movies called Godzilla? I've never seen any serious confusion over it that hampers any kind of discussion.

Why not just call it Godzilla 2014?

As a fandom, we refer to 54 as Gojira or Godzilla: King of the Monsters, 84 as Godzilla 1984 or Return of Godzilla, and 98 as Godzilla 1998 or GINO

Why the fuck would we refer to it as Godzilla vs the Mutos, especially since it is canon with absolutely no other monster films in existence
