My girlfriend wants to watch a Godzilla movie - which one?

[Legion1979]

I'd say Mothra vs. Godzilla, too. If she's not grabbing your arm and going "get up! get up!" when Godzilla's getting set to stomp Mothra, then she's not the one.

What if she's rooting for Godzilla?

If Mothra vs Godzilla is her first Godzilla film, she won't be rooting for Godzilla.

[Rody]

I agree that Mothra vs. Godzilla would be a good starting point. It's not too dark, not too campy; it's overall probably the best G film.

Son of Godzilla might also be a good choice, if she likes a sweeter, more lighthearted film. I might also suggest Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla for a fun action flick.

more the better, then show her godzilla 1985, humor, action, lots of scenes with big g, good choice.

...I've never seen any one root for Godzilla in The Return Of Godzilla. Also, that would fall into the same category as Godzilla: Dark and kinda depressing. Not something that you want to show your girlfriend as the first example of Godzilla.

[Hellspawn28]

What about Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla '74? It's one of the best Godzilla films of the 70's and the tone of the movie is not too dark or campy.

Don't watch a Godzilla movie with your girlfriend.

Act one out. Role play. Dress up in rubber suits and wrestle. Trust me, it's fun.


In all seriousness, Godzilla vs. Biollante would be my first suggestion. GMK, The Return of Godzilla, and Mothra vs. Godzilla would be my other suggestions. If she's a hardcore film buff, Gojira would be good choice too.

[Qaenos]

Thanks for all the suggestions. Looks like Mothra vs Godzilla is the favorite. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

[menschenjaeger]

The only possible snag is that the rest of the movies can't quite live up to it.

Roleplay as Battra and her as Mothra, damn we don't have alot of female monsters in this franchise don't we...sausage fest

In all seriousness it's kinda weird what few female monsters we do have some seem to like doing the penetrating (Biollante, Megaguirus, Legion).

Not to mention Jiger knocked Gamera up.

Only Gamera can get raped by a female monster, get prego from said rape, and still be called a hero.

[Tyler]

Speaking of that what happened to the Baby Jiger? Did Gamera just cough it up or something.. ?

[Rody]

The obnoxious kid protagonists took a mini-sub inside Gamera and found a way to kill the baby.

[Tyler]

I know, but they just left it there. Eww.

M-preg: It's older than you think...

[thatsoundman]

yeah, that was a little gross, while your talking about it i have gamera the brave loaded in the blue ray, on another note what did you choose to show your girlfriend?

[Living Corpse]

My girlfriend is coming over on Friday. She knows I love Godzilla and wants to watch a Godzilla movie with me. She's never seen one.

We're both in our 30s. Not sure if this is relevant, but in case it is, I thought I'd mention it.

Which movie do I put on? I have just about all of them on DVD.

You need to tell us what she even wants so we can even have a good idea of what film to suggest. Because it'd be really awkward if she wanted something fun and you show her something as morbid as G54 because we didn't know what to suggest.

Does she just want something fun and enjoyable or does she want something some what serious?

[thatsoundman]

what movies have you seen together, that you know that she enjoyed? that would help us to help you with this choice.
