It had such a gigantic set up. Godzilla kicks mankind off Earth and Kaiju thrive undisturbed for thousands of years. when mankind returns, the Earth is a nightmarish landscape only Kaiju can survive in. What did we get? mostly flying beasts, and Godzilla by himself. all other Kaiju are dead, except for Mothera, but she's in an egg... and we only get a glimpse of her after she hatches, then never again. This trilogy was the ultimate cock tease for Godzilla fans. it would set something up, only for nothing to happen. anti-climactic across the board. not just action but also character development. I remember none of the names of the characters. heck, I forgot half of them were aliens. it spent way too much time just sitting and talking plans to defeat Godzilla and our inevitable doom. I'll stick with the 1998 TV show.
The director never said that, he made it clear back then and this year with gamera rebirth that he liked godzilla and gamera. It was the alternative director who wasn't a fan and didn't know how to handle a kaiju film. The director stated he tried to having more action in the trilogy but toho declined that request meanwhile kadokawa let him do whatever he wanted with gamera. Toho is the reason why the trilogy is a mess, not the directors
Tbh godzilla earth trilogy was ok, i think it definitely had good ideas just wasn't execute that well. I mean is i was kinda hoping to see godzilla earth go against mecha godzilla. But overall there was some good and some eh moments
The Monster Planet trilogy had so many awesome concepts but they’re so underutilized it’s painful. I wouldn’t mind the cgi animation too if they actually took full advantage of it (which they didn’t). Really the only thing worse than this was the Singular Point anime for that had less of an actual story, characters with no personality, and the monsters (Godzilla included) had so little to do with anything you could rip them out of that show and nothing would be different. I recommend watching Omni Viewer’s reviews for the full analysis and how Hiroyuki Seshita (who directed the Gamera Rebirth anime afterwards) lambasted Toho for getting in their own way with this trilogy.
@@franchisefan918 And a very bad one at that. At least Shin had a reason to exist. You could take Ultima out entirely and nothing would be different. “Ultima” bleh, what an oxymoronic name.
Absolutely beautiful to look at. The concept of humans trying to reclaim Earth from Godzilla and all the monsters that rose up since then sounded like an awesome concept for a series. But the whole thing focused on an even more obnoxious version of Eren Yeager. The possibilities of various monster battles and action was minimal. The human characters were not very likeable nor were their stories interesting. Beautiful looking series, awesome concept, poorly executed.
The movie trilogy has a cool ass Godzilla with cool super unique superpowers. But the writing is actually terrible, good world building bad execution. There’s a prequel book that describes the kaiju taking over the world with basically every single kaiju in it. Would’ve made a way better movie than the actual series. The first movie is okay, the second and third are really bad
We talked about it plenty when this mess was dropped on us in 2017. The best ideas happened in the prequel novel and the trilogy has a pathetic main character. He's just Eva Shinji but mad instead of sad. Like, bro. You think your family was the only one killed on that plane by Veggie Goji? Not to mention he's just a fuck boy to some alien creep that prattles on pseudo religious nonsense. Who they had nothing to do until the third movie when they just made him a Ghidorah cultist out of nowhere. Then there's the fact that the animation is super stiff and robotic on the human characters. Not to mention the textures of the clothes just stretch with the character models. Like too many anime of the 2010's, the cgi is an eyesore and doesn't have any natural sense of movement. Like the '98 disaster, it's exists only to remind us that the movie barrel does indeed have a bottom.
I got bored watching the English dub of these movies. Two years after the final part came out I decided to watch it in Japanese, since I was already completely invested into anime at that time. And I gotta say, I enjoyed it a whole lot more watching it in Japanese instead of English.
I don’t really like these movies. The concept is cool but the execution is underwhelming . You can’t even really call the kaiju “fights” , fights as there’s nothing to really add on other than Godzilla gets shot at by city and Godzilla gets bitten and can’t hit its opponent . They did both Godzilla and the villains like mechagodzilla and king ghidorah dirty .
the anime trilogy is overhated as hell, the second and third ones could be better but i love the first one. i love the themes of what it means to be human.
It is overhated af but still the movies mostly felt like speaking, just words, this is a godzilla movie, where Tf is the action, the very few action sequences were a banger, pls make a remake with more action sequences, I would love the idea of there being more than one Godzilla Filius, and I would eat up a sequence in the water where they fight a Godzilla Filius and how would that work, I would also eat Tf out of a extended Godzilla vs Ghidorah fight
Weird opinion, this trilogy got better with each film. The first is crap, the second is okay, & the last one is decent. Def a waste of a great premise, tho; the prequel novels, from what I've heard of them, sound infinitely more interesting. I'd lose it if Toho made a prequel trilogy lmao, & while we're on topic, I need Shin Godzilla Raids Again, dammit.
At this point I don’t even know if the 1956 Togo movie Godzilla: King of the Monsters movie exists! And no, I’m not talking about the 2019 Legendary movie
No offense bro, the tone you got in this video gives “I don’t know what to talk about” vibes. This is one of the worst Godzilla timeline. The human cast are “anime generic” + boring, the idea is extremely underutilized, and the ending was mid as hell.
@@cookiebeast555 It’s not that bad if it’s something you see the first time but as a 20+ year Goji fan it’s infuriating that they were given diamonds but made coal
Godzilla Singular point OR let me throw some sciency sounded garbage around and basically end the series with a Math is Magic style of ending. Frankly, I'd rather watch the Gamera vs Viras on endless loop.
I didnt watched konggodzilla empire toho minus one is a masterpiece I grew up with heishei era goji movies there,s a edit of goji after dark thank you for youre review
Such a shameful waste to reintroduce the old cast of Kaiju to a newer generation via animation. Instead we get just godzilla sleeping for most of the films and only a shadow of mothra, ghidorah was the only cool thing about the trilogy imo.
i dont like the trilogy its just about the humans and godzilla is just a side character . Plus the humans talk so much in the film that no one understands
Fun Fact: When asked about wanting to return to the Godzilla franchise, Kobun Shizuno actually responded by saying this “I’d rather jump off a cliff headfirst and die.”
I dont remember anything from watching the series like years ago other than being mad that two forest girls decided to randomly have sex with the protag in the last movie
1. The monsterverse is owned by legendary, not Warner Brothers 2. Not a fair comparison when the MV ACTUALLY stays true to the source material and was made by fans, the bayverse half the time didn't care to be accurate to the source material
I already finished watching Godzilla planet of the monsters today.. it was good,the voice actor is great,and the storyline okay. Still... It can't top 1 Shin Godzilla tho... Not even GodzillaMO .
@@xXJLNINJAXx I'm sorry,Minus one is a great Godzilla story and movie of all Godzilla franchise... But I'm talking about personal,one character my fav Godzilla Shin. Even though, Shin Godzilla story slow and not have a impact movie but his characteristics I talking about

i watched it when it was out on netflix and i wouldnt stop talking about it till singular point came out
I’ve never fallen asleep with a Godzilla movie, but I couldn’t make it bruh, those movies are ass.
I'll gladly watch even the goofiest, worst Godzilla movies. I couldn't make it through this trilogy. It's not really Godzilla to me.
I thought Godzilla earth was good me and my brother watched it together it was confusing at first but was still a good /movie

Definitely the worst godzilla 😭
