Godzilla Trivia of the Day


Did you know...

That "Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah - Giant Monsters All-Out Attack
" is the first movie in which King Ghidorah is actually smaller than Godzilla.

This is something that I still think doesn't work at all.

King Ghidorah is Godzilla's arch-enemy!

He should be the very imposing monster that we all know and love by now; one that is so big/strong that Godzilla has to constantly team-up with other monsters just to even take him on.

If King Ghidorah is suddenly shrunk down to Godzilla's size, that detracts from the physicality that he usually brings to the table.

In other words it takes away the "David vs Goliath" approach that Godzilla usually has, where he's the underdog in the fight and has to prove himself in order to win.

Thankfully this trend did not continue throughout the rest of the King Ghidorah appearances.
