Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
Mecha-King Ghidorah has got to be up there for me. Phenomenal lighting. Also Destoroyah's final form. Will second Godzilla in TOMG. Heck, I'll even throw GMK Ghiddy in there, post-Mothra revival.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
When Godzilla proper shows up in Vs. King Ghidorah I get goosebumps every time.
I also have to mention Destroy All Monsters. There's something great about the chill journey through all the kaiju on the island just going about their business.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
Godzilla coming ashore in GvKG is one of the greatest scenes in the genre. I absolutely love the theme that plays then (it also works fantastically in G2K), and that shot of Godzilla passing by the farm. As much crap as I give Heisei, when it got things right, it got things right.Major sssspielberg! wrote: ↑Fri May 14, 2021 5:21 pm When Godzilla proper shows up in Vs.

And yes, those monster roster scenes in the Showa series are so cool. That's something every series since has been lacking, is a good lineup of monsters active all at once. KOTM '19 set that up for the Monsterverse; hopefully future entries capitalize on it and give us a scene where Monarch is rattling off a list of active Titans or something.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
Literally every entrence in ToMG. Holy shit there are some phenomenal entrances. There's Titano lurking in the dark water and pouncing on the sub, then coming out of the water in spectacular fashion, MG2 rising from the ground, and doing his awesome salute, and of course Godzilla coming from the shadows to save the day.
All 3 of those entrances also have fantastic themes playing to them.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
Godzilla Aquatilis' first entrance is amazing. The sudden abrupt STOP of all the action that had been taking place beforehand, as if the world itself is standing still; the reinvention of the classic Godzilla theme, the incredible sense of scale and fluidness of Godzilla's movements, the closeup of his eyes were all superbly done. Gave me the deepest chills seeing it for the first time. Man, what a moment.
And his evolution into Godzilla Amphibia only sweetens the deal.
The same rings true for Godzilla Terrestris.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
Monster X descending behind Godzilla after the massive explosion of the asteroid, the way it’s shot and with the music, is still as amazing as the first time I saw it. Same with Destoroyah’s Perfect Form bursting from the refinery. Biollante’s final form emerging from the ground is also glorious to behold.
King Ghidorah’s entrances in just about everything. Showa in GTTHM, Grand, GMK after getting charged by Mothra, KOTM, Planet Eater, they’re all absolutely amazing.
Also, Godzilla Earth in PoTM, after Filius’ death. The movie as a whole isn’t the best, but that fucking scene is chilling and awe-inspiring.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
I am an open critic of the anime trilogy and dislike it as a whole, but even I'll admit Godzilla Earth's first appearance is a highlight. No other time had the utter hopeless dread of a Godzilla-related media dare I say hit harder than just the scope of what they were really up against. Godzilla felt like well, god.GodzillavsRayquaza wrote: ↑Sun Aug 08, 2021 6:14 pm Monster X descending behind Godzilla after the massive explosion of the asteroid, the way it’s shot and with the music, is still as amazing as the first time I saw it.

Re: Favorite Kaiju Entrances
Possibly my favorite Godzilla entrance ever: the reveal of Godzilla's second form in Shin Godzilla. The buildup from the first boat accident, to the sprouting of the tail, all the way to the darkly hilarious scene of the Prime Minister promising he can't come ashore--only for him to come a-skreeonking-shore and start trampling hundreds of people to death and destroying the city, is both well-written satire-wise and very eerie and suspenseful, all culminating in a moment of pure jaw-dropping "WHAT THE FU**!" as the movie reveals something that can be looked at equal parts goofy and comical-looking, or (and this is the one I feel personally) hideous and disturbing.
Just one of the near-countless pluses of this masterpiece of a movie.

*Lizzie's big reveal as the mutant crocodile emerges from the Chicago River in RAMPAGE. With George and Ralph's rampage in Chicago unable to be stopped by the armed forces. A military technician saying an unidentified submerged object picked up on sonar. The commanding officer "We got no ships in that area." The one agent rolls his eyes realizing thing are about to get worse just before Lizzie emerges from the river.
*The Driller's first appearance in TRANSFORMERS:Dark of the Moon at Chernobyl.
*Mothra's first appearance in GODZILLA:TOKYO S*O*S. Trees, and high grass being caught in the tailwind of her passing on a Pacific Island. An American tracking station picking her up on radar, and scrambling a squad of jets to pursue the at the moment unidentified flying object. The squad coming up upon the still concealed Mothra in the clouds, and not responding to their hails. They start firing upon her. Then hear music, singing over their comms. Then the massive moth emerges from the clouds, still semi-concealed in the moonlit night.
*Cyber-Godzilla's reveal after being revived by the Leviathan Aliens in Part Two of GODZILLA:The Series big trilogy event, THE MONSTER WAR.
*The roster of mutations of mutations, monsters revealed at the end of Part One to GODZILLA:The Series', THE MONSTER WAR.

Honest question: why do you type the way you do?
I mean, all the colors makes the text more interesting to look at than others, but isn’t a bit too much effort for a Godzilla forum?

Also one of my favorite entrances is Destroyah's final form. The way it's framed and the music is so good.
