Mostly it's fun watching Godzilla stomp on stuff and destroy armies--it's kinda like watching movies about dinosaurs. But there's other stuff once you get into it. It's probably easier for kids to watch, but if you're an adult you have to watch Godzilla for a certain amount of time before your adult brain shuts down enough to enter Godzilla's alternative universe--sometimes it takes me two movies to get into the right mindset. At this point stuff in the plot that previously made no sense begins to make sense--Godzilla plots definitely don't follow Western plot principles (kind of like anime in that way). There are some really interesting SF ideas in Godzilla.
But mostly it's fun watching Godzilla break stuff :)
With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down
Helpless people on a subway train
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them
He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town
Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Godzilla ga ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go Godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah
History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of man
History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of man
Godzilla!
I feel obligated to watch it since the guy could stay in the rubber lizard suit only 10 minutes before passing out.
