   You know, Rhindle was merely stating his opinion, why are you people jumping   
   all over him? Because this is the "sacred GMK directed by the divinity that   
   is Kaneko?"   
      
   I have the subtitled, uncut version of GMK, and you know what? I agree with   
   Rhindle. Almost anyway. I thought G2k was better, and GMK was definetly one   
   of the *worst* G movies I've ever seen.   
      
   Godzilla was evil, that's fine, I can accept that. But how could you even   
   hope to root for anybody when Godzilla is so totally impervious, that it   
   took a super blast from KG to even create a little hole in him? I thought it   
   would have been better had Baragon drawn blood, maybe those drill missiles   
   actually digging through a bit. And to top it all off, Ghidrah's "ultimate   
   powerup" caused his own death! How dumb is that? I will agree th at it   
   should have been G's own power that killed him, but it should have been   
   after a significantly more vicious fight than that.   
      
   And yes, this was also one of the worst looking Godzilla's ever to boot.   
   Waspra, I mean Mothra looked great, Baragon was spiffy, KG was plastic....   
   um...  no, that's not a good thing. Although I'll be one of the first to say   
   "I'd rather have seen this the way Kaneko originally intended, with Varan   
   and Anguirus", I still think Kaneko could have done a LOT better than this   
   even with the restrictions Toho had on him.
