Well, all of the other suits are wrong. Those costume designers from the 1950s-1990s had absolutely no idea how Godzilla was supposed to look. Thankfully, Kaneko descended from the heavens to show us the true incarnation of Godzilla.

Yeah, I don't like the GMK design. Even for that film.

I'm not going to bash a different opinion like some others, but I can't say I completely agree. Godzilla's design changed with the tone of his movies, so the suit designers had a pretty good sense of what they were doing. Sometimes, I wanted to go and smack them, but everyone had a design they didn't like. Just imagine, GMK Godzilla hanging out with Minilla in Son of G. :freak: GMK looks like he wants to kill everything. It wouldn't fit the family-style atmosphere of that movie very well, in my opinion. (It would be funny as shit, though!)

Let's stick GMKzilla in Monster Zero and watch the actor try to pull off any silly dances.

I don't particularly like GMK Godzilla either, but that still would be funny. Severely out of place, but funny.

"Oh, come on!"

"DO IT!"

"Come on!"

I guess Rodan can be Feldman, then. GMK could use a little Cyndi Lauper on the soundtrack.

I like the GMK Godzilla, mainly because of the sinister look he gets from those white eyes. My second choice would be the G2K Godzilla, because it's probably the most reptilian design in the whole franchise.

Of all of the Millenium Saga the Godzilla 2000 suit is my favorite the appearance reminds of the 1962 one
for second place it has to be the GAMG/Tokyo S.O.S. one it resembles that Dinosaurian look of G2K and it goes back to the Blue Ray, Dark Grey Color that makes it great.
Unstoppable Fury , Unthinkable Power , Unbreakable Will.

Godzilla 2000, then Godzilla Final Wars for me. I enjoyed all of the designs though, including many features of the Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack look, just not the eyes without pupils.

Im with you the G2K one is also my favorite but my second would be GMK, it would be first if it was not for that bulge...made me think he was an oversized lizard who drank to much lol

Ah yes, the beer belly. Due to decline in Godzilla's ticket sales at the time, he turned to excessive drinking. Although his eyes appear pupiless to us, they were actually completely glazed over from being so drunk. His on-screen character took a more sinister route as a result of inner termoil in his own life.

Lol, thank you. In all seriousness, I could have done without the belly bulge as you said, and personally the eyes too.

Haha. I can agree with that, because atleast the eyes fit the evil edge of his personality in the movie. The belly on the other hand is, as you said, annoying, and unnecessary in my opinion.

Sheesh, when you post it like that, it almost looks like Godzilla's trying to create a bulge in between his legs.
