I know he's a BAD Godzilla, but Zilla is a cool looking monster.
He doesn't look as bland as Cloverfield or the MUTOS even tho he's just gray.
The fact that the Animated series is good and kinda redeemed it just show that he's wasted potential.

They tried to give it pearlescent blue hues on the back but the shaders weren't quite up to it. In some night shots you can see a little of it. They had it so it the creatures color matched the general surroundings. In the day shots it was gray like the overcast sky, bluish and green at night, and brownish in the underground scenes. They originally wanted a chameleon color palette like the dino in Jurassic World but compromised in the end.
Jose Mitchell
This. The movie would have been much better if it were called “The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms.”
Gavin Hughes
It really is a ripoff
Jordan Taylor
When Godzilla 1954 came out it was also thought of as a knockoff of The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms.
Ryan Watson
>They tried to give it pearlescent blue hues on the back but the shaders weren't quite up to it
Like Zilla Jr?
Ryder Hughes
Mason Bennett
uh-huh yeah
Andrew Robinson
As a kid who loved dinosaurs (and godzilla) this movie was the shit. A really great experience.
There were magazines, stands everywhere, tons of commercial tie in (the taco bell dog), toys all up and down isles, a cartoon.
He's a great godzilla in his own right.
Cameron Thompson
Maybe
Xavier Ramirez
Sebastian Reyes
It's fine as a monster movie, just not a Godzilla movie.
Lincoln Evans
>He doesn't look as bland as Cloverfield or the MUTOS even tho he's just gray.
He's literally a disproportioned TRex. Cloverfield and the Mutos are both infinitely better
Luke Miller
Because the American version cuts all the stuff that tells it apart from regular pulp shit like Beast
Christian Bell
did they purposefully design him to look like a guy in a lizard suit only to have it be cg in the film?
Lincoln Lee
I always liked the design and the movie is better than it's given credit for.
Daniel Lopez
It was supposed to be a guy in a lizard suit.
Kevin Lee
There are scenes where someone is wearing partial prosthetics/costumes. In particular when he's digging underwater and the helicopter chase scene.
Camden Rodriguez
ah ok, just wondered because it looked like cheap cgi all over the place, except maybe for the last bridge bombing scene which looked like cheap practical effects.
William Wilson
godzilla vs a pack of zillas
Jonathan Harris
big lizards are sexy
Hunter Hill
>He's a great godzilla in his own right.
I never thought I'd see contrarians so desperate to feel special that they'd endorse Godzilla 98. And to claim the cynical (((merchandising))) makes it a better movie is really odd. Suspicious almost.
Watch this and try not to cringe, faggot:

Jacob Wright
If you called him super t rex I guess it works.
Levi Moore
gorosaurus more like it
Luke Peterson
He's easily the sexiest zilla
Jack Anderson
1998 is better than some japanese godzilla movie.
Most of them were mediocre
Jonathan Thompson
It should've just been it's own monster movie.
Isaiah Perry
Ryder Campbell
how can I cringe when I am crying so much?
Jordan Myers
>cringe
yeah, that's exactly how I feel about the entire giant monster franchise.

Brandon Gray
I would unironically watch that.
Jason Powell
Mutos look like shit.
Leo Bailey
Its a nineties movie. What are you expecting out of it? There are over 30 godzilla movies. I wouldn't expect a pleb to understand though.
Camden Martin
This is genuinely really cool. Why are you such a fucking pansy?
Dylan Hernandez
It really makes me wonder if some of you fuckers watched different Godzilla movies than me, because they are all poorly-acted, have shit effects, shit stories, and are just generally shit. At least 98 Godzilla looked good.
Cameron White
>I know he's a BAD Godzilla, but Zilla is a cool looking monster.
Smartest thing Toho did was establish that Zilla is a unique character and not an incarnation of Godzilla. So since he isn't a "poser" anymore and just one more monster in the Toho roster, he can be accepted as his own thing.
Connor Fisher
I agree. But Zilla looks considerably worse
Julian Long
How is it cooler than Clover? Looks way more bland than Clover. It's just a fucking big dinosaur. Movie sucked shit, whether or not this was Godzilla.
Matthew Anderson
looks like some good fun to me, you joyless faggot
Luis King
Zilla's a fantastic design, recognizable but original. The cartoon series uses it even better. Mutos look way, way too robotic. They don't look organic, they look like stealth bombers. Every kaiju has some real world creature inspiration, what are Mutos?
Mason Cruz
>recognizable
That's because it's a trex
>original
No
Justin Cox
The soundtrack and main song is one of the best songs ever written. Puff Daddy destroyed that!
Nathaniel Perez
ZILLA IS A GIRL YOU FUCKING RETARDS DID YOU EVEN WATCH THE MOVIE HOLY FUCK 40 POSTS IN FUCK OFF ZOMMER SECONDARIES
Evan Cruz
I am convinced Roland Emmerich has some sort of foot/macro fetish
Brayden Ward

Radioactive Staple Removers

You're either blind or just parroting retarded opinions.
Austin Peterson
I want her bros
Elijah Bell
Bro look at it. I don't even hate the movie, but it's probably the most boring monster design in decades
Jason Cooper
One thicc bitch
Landon Hill
>Zilla could have been in King of the Monsters as one of the side kaiju
>she would have bowed to Godzilla at the end
>both pro- and anti-Zilla people would be happy
Caleb Hernandez
I like the design
Most kaiju just look big goofy animal, which admittedly has its own charm.
Cloverfield is too edgy and tryhard. It's like something 8 year old would design after browsing AvP wiki.
Mutos and Zilla are in the sweet spot
James Long
His rights likely belong to sony instead of Toho so I can't imagine that would be an easy inclusion
Even if Toho does own the rights, they are notoriously stingy with giving monster rights out, so it WB wanted to get another monster for a C-list cameo, they would likely go with someone more fans would appreciate like Angirus
Jacob Walker
I agree
>That rainy atmosphere
>BASED Jean Reno one-liners
>Genuinely scary moments
This is a good movie.
Godzilla purists can fuck off
Lincoln Sullivan
Only good Godzilla movies are the first one, the 1984, the one with Biollante, the one with Destroyah, 2014 and Shin. All the others range from barelly correct to dogshit.
I did not watch King of Monsters.
Easton Moore
The movie obviously tried to bank on Jurassic Park, but most monsters are just "(animal), but bigger"
