theres no boring rear end fights between dudes in rubber suits so its a big step up from traditional Godzilla.

counterpoint: rubber suit fights are a lot more interesting and charming than the movie where Godzilla spends 60% of his screen time doing nothing but roaring or swooping his tail around

honestly the movie isn't really even about him so I'm not sure how it can be the best godzilla movie

the lack of fights in Godzilla (2014) makes the ending far more satisfying. Constant fights gets you snoozefests like Pacific Rim.

Godzilla (2014) is still about Godzilla, but its also more about how Humanity (and specifically individual humans) are insignificant.

Its also got the halo drop which is just a great scene and if you didn't see it in theaters you really missed out.

Pacific Rim was boring, yeah, but the older Godzilla movies usually didn't have overly-long fights and the fights that they did have were very creative. the final fight scene of G'14 is definitely very good but it's a long slog to get there

Godzilla is the third-most important monster in the movie, which makes it seem more like a sequel than a remake that's substantively about him though

HALO drop was a cool scene but I'm not sure why the soldiers didn't just take bikes into the city honestly. would probably have been faster and less hazardous.
