I don't know if this is the right place for this, but I'll give it a shot.

How do you feel about Godzilla (the Japanese version, not the crappy American one)?

I've loved Godzilla ever since I was a kid (see my name). He's always been so interesting to me. Heck all giant diakaiju films interest me. But Godzilla was my first daikajiu, and he's just so great. He could kick anyone's ass and anything's ass. That has just always interested me since I was three.

My personal favorite Godzilla film is by far the original Godzilla film from 1954. It brought Godzilla into existence and showed the real horrors of nuclear weapons. I also love Mothra vs. Godzilla (1964), Invasion of the Astro-Monster (1965), Godzilla vs. Hedorah (1971), Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla (1974), Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989), Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (1991) and Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack (2001) (Hey, there's 28 Godzilla films, so there's lots to choose from).

My favorite thing in this universe: Godzilla.
 
I'm a huge fan of James Rolfe, and I always liked the idea of a giant and powerful lizard wrecking shit so I followed his Godzilla movie reviews closely. I enjoyed all of them, and after that I got to watch Final Wars (didn't watch any other godzilla movie except the american one, 'cause they are extremely hard to find on the internet and bumblefuck Portugal has no godzilla avaliable on the video store) and, what the hell, I enjoyed it a lot. It had my favorite monster (badass gigan), godzilla, and lots of monster fighting (but not as much as it should have had). And what the fuck, I enjoy crazy kung-fu going on with humans. It was like real-life dbz with monster shit.

I would love to see some older movies though!
 
I love anything with Mecha Godzilla or King Ghidorah for the most part.

Can't wait for them to start making more movies again.
