what Godzilla movie should I start with?
I want something that insn't really slow paced for my introduction
bamp
one more
Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla.
It doesn't matter. They're all glib facsimiles.

The 98' is the best.

I'd go with either King Kong vs Godzilla or Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla as a first.
Godzilla Raids Again is good too. It has haunting black and white visuals, an animalistic struggle between the two beasts, and a dark soundtrack. Personally I like the American soundtrack better, but the guy who scored the Japanese also did Mechagodzilla's soundtrack. He does some good stuff. The human sequences are pretty comfy too, especially during the snowy night where they're celebrating one of the main characters getting engaged.
I think pretty much all movies are but a glib facsimile of the original tbqh

Start and end with the 1954 one. If you want pacing, stay AWAY from the 2014 one.

The first Godzilla was a glib facsimile of the Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. Toho couldn't afford a Ray Harryhausen level of monster fx so they went with a glib facsimile monster suit.
Godzilla VS Mothra is my favorite, has classic feel and pretty good pacing.
Godzilla VS Mechagodzilla and Terror of Mechagodzilla are pretty good too.
Ghidora the three headed monster is a lot of peoples favorite but it starts a bit slow.
I'd save the 90s/2K ones for later though, but out of all of them I do enjoy Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack.

I wish they would go ahead and release the complete showa series on blu ray. Also wish return of godzilla would get a blu ray release but the us rights are still up in the air i believe. Heisei series is boss tho.
>these monsters are 100 meters tall guys, we swear!

Kaiju height averages on fifty meters in the Showa and Millennium eras, and it changes from 80 to 100 during Heisei, you disgusting pleb.

Because the buildings got bigger too. Interesting how real life influences fiction. In the first few movies of the third series Godzilla is smaller again.
>>63700463
Why would anyone look that?
>>63700979
>King Kong vs Godzilla
Ignore this shit, its one of the most well known films, but its absolutely among the weakest.
>>63706972
True but it was supposed to be a parody. I assume they spent most of the budget on the rights to King Kong.
>>63700463
Geez, some of those Zilla's really look like shit. It's as if someone just let mold grow on the older ones and then painted it all dark green.
