echanical looks so much better. And it's cool.

godzilla is cool.

I'd separate these into three: suit, robot, and computer-generated, because to me, they're quite distinct.

Thanks for the suggestion, harold! ;)
I'd need to get to the libary for that. Sorry to say, I can't make more than two selections on this computer. I can't edit them on it either. The only things I can edit are information about images that I've submitted. I can't add images to the picks either.
I finally found an old Flash program that I installed, so at least I can submit images to different spots now. Since then, I can't join any new spots (unless I do it by adding an image or link to that certain spot). This machine is really old and quirky. :(
I still have to go to the library to fan people, rate, or save any favorites too.

Ah, the classic godzilla...

yep

man in a suit looks crappy

How could you say that?! Jared...

What I can I say? I grew up watching G films with the man in a suit!

mechanical looks much better!

mechanical godzilla looks better

if ur talking about the mechagodzillas,im so on!

Godzilla Rulls

i have a collection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's all good!

man in suit it beter than mechanical it would not go right

Ok to answer u all that with man in suite he mean the japanese godzilla the second is to that loughable crappy cgi copy gino of the american emmerich shit movie of 1998 and nope he not mean kiryu our the other mechagodzillas and i always say godzilla pure made with cgi no way

I vote Man-in-a-suit mainly for sentimental reasons. Many hours of my youth was spent in front of the TV watching Big G and his pals.

If not for the "fraudulent name", the American Godzilla would be considered a fun, brainless summer romp-of-a-movie. The animated TV series follow-up was actually a better representation of the creature portrayed in the film.

Hopefully the planned Godzilla film, which will use CGI to animate Big G, will satisfy all us fans & not just be another cinematic dead end.

There was an animated series? I never knew about that. Was it something on regular network TV, or was it only on cable?

TheCountess,

Check out link
Godzilla: The Series (TV Series 1998–2000).

It was on FOX, I think. Godzilla is more like his namesake in that he has a "maybe I'll help the humans, maybe I'll just break something" kind of attitude. He doesn't run away unless he was seriously hurt & had to heal, before coming back and kickin' the monster-of-the-week's ass.

The human characters, their relationships to each other & to Godzilla, were fleshed out more. As for Godzilla's relationship to Nick Tatopoulos, the monster had imprinted upon Nick like he was Godzilla's surrogate mother. Godzilla also had the ability to fire some kind of radioactive fireball (or maybe a spitball), a great improvement over the film, at least.

All of that plus sharp, clean animation, less over-the-top humor and plenty of action every episode, made for a pretty good show... back in the day.

Thanks for sharing all of that information, JD. :) It sounds like something I'd enjoy, and I couldn't help but laugh at your observation of "maybe I'll help the humans, maybe I'll just break something". lol!
As for the imdb, sorry to say, my computer won't let me access it. It's really old and outdated, and there's a number of sites I can't access. If I try, it'll either freeze up the computer or boot me offline. ...not enough space or speed to upgrade either.

totally man in a suit because its original and it makes u wonder..."what would it feel like to be in a suit like that?"
and because it looks sooo real and by the color and detail they scult in the suit....computer generated kinda stinks compared to it.

goods of comupter generated:
u can make them move faster.
they kinda look real.
it takes a shorter amount of time to make them.
it doesn't fall apart or get ruined.
u "may" be able to have better fight scenes.

bads about computer generated:
u might loose the file.
it looks less real than a suit.
glitches-exp.(it doesn't show his spikes or something small)
u cannot treasure a computer model or keep it as a memory.
one min. u might be working on an entire scene....then...it all just crashes.

goods of a suit:
it looks very real.
u can keep it for the next film.
u can have more realisticness if some chunks of scales fall of when he gets hit by a rocket or something.
u can actually have REAL fire around the suit and more effects.
u can keep the suit in good condition and keep it as a memory.


bads of a suit:
it can wear down over the years(or weeks).
it is harder to stay balenced or u can't run as fast.


so there u have it!
