Godzilla Final Wars (Matrix meets Independence Day)
Godzilla Tokyo SOS
Godzilla vs Mothra
Godzilla vs SpaceGodzilla (boring)
Besides the American film made in '98, I've never seen a Godzilla film before. I always thought it would be boring and cheesy. But however, these films are not that bad if you're interested in that film's story. I guess because it's dated, I don't feel like the action is the backbone which is really the reason I think to watch Godzilla films.
As much as I've seen, the premise seems kind of the same.
Something wakes up Godzilla's slumber and it becomes cranky and just destroys shit.
Some how it's lead from the ocean to a city and Godzilla must die before the entire city is destroyed.
There's always a situation where Godzilla is distracted by something else, like another creature, which is eviler, and it's agreed that the new thing must die instead. Then Godzilla is happy and leaves the now fucked up city alone and goes back to the ocean to sleep.
Oh yeah, and some Japanese character always wants to sacrifice themselves in the film, I wonder if that is a running thing.
So yeah, if you want to make a Godzilla film, there's your formula.
I like how the films also mindfuck you. As if you're not really supposed to root for Godzilla because he's fucking up humans. Then comes the real evil creature and it's like "Yeah, Godzilla! Beat its ass!". And there's a few occasions where we are told that it's our fault that this shit is happening because us humans keep fucking with Earth. Like, Earth even has it's own creature protector name Mothra. And when Earth is in major danger, some form of matter, it makes its appearance to communicate with humans and say "Yo, stop this shit or you're fucked." using twin fairy Asian chicks.
I dunno, but I'm interested in watching more. I know it's going to hurt to watch the very first early films. Because the films I've watched, the network aired them ass backwards.

Who am I to tell you 'Hold on' when you wanna let go?
Who am I? I'm just a sicko with a song in my head and it keeps playing again and again and again and again."
