I think the funny thing about this thread is, invariably, someone's opinion is going to be unpopular, whether by popular consensus or someone else.

What I find hilarious is mostly, we get more people agreeing with the opinions or chiming in with their own opinons based around it then actualy like. Actual reactions of anger over an opinion.

Which given how this forum CAN be, REALLY seems weird.

Maybe it's because people are feeling emboldened by other people sharing a 'controversial' opinion, and thus decide to chime in or add onto it?

You've... put a GINO incarnation above G2K/GXM and Shin.




And I actually like MV Godzilla's small head. It makes the body look larger and more imposing.

Have you seen said GINO series? He’s better than Hulkzilla and Mr Body Horror.

That's not that Godzilla though. That's his dad/Cyber-Godzilla. That's not how it works pal.

Also, don't care about the rest (it's your opinion) but gotta call out you put Ultima in F. We literally haven't seen him, don't judge that quick.

1. The “GINO” I put in B is the Godzilla we see in the majority of the series, aka the grown-up child. This is the picture I placed in B.

You may be referring to something else so could you explain if so? Are you talking to JAG or myself in this first sentence?

2. I know we haven’t seen Ultima in action, but purely based on his design, I hate every inch of it.

1. Ah, misread it. Thought it was base Zilla above the 2000s. Nevermind.

2. That's a perfectly fine reason to dislike it, I'm just saying it seems extra annoying to me when you are specifically ranking INCARNATIONS and ignored designs for the rest of this list it seems.

But you were smart and put Showa in the S tier as he deserves so I'll let it slide ;)

We’re all hunky-dorey then, so all is good. And let the true king reign.

Simultaneously based and cringe. Good work.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The coup subplot in Final Wars is brilliant (on paper), and I'd like to see it reused in a future g-film but more fleshed out.

The whole inner conspiracy aspect of the film, is definitely unique and tense in the right moments.

Same. Even back in 2014 when it debuted I wasn't crazy about it. I don't dislike it per se, but I think its highly overrated. For me there's just something about it that doesn't click, like its missing something, somehow. I feel like it leans into the whole "DUDE REALISM" angle too hard. I suppose I prefer my kaiju to have an aura of the fantastical.

2014 was just what it needed to be and 2019-21 is even better.

Honestly, i think the Ready Player One Mechagodzilla design is better than the one in Godzilla vs. Kong.

He ain't THAT bad fellas. lol, I'm starting to just side with liking this design because all the crap people gave it...

Honestly, I think if he just had some more edges to contrast the blockiness of the design, he'd be a wonderful Mechagodzilla. Some spikes on the claw arms, classic fangs, etc.
