    Overrated and overhyped

    Baseshment

    I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

    It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

    The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

    I saw this show as a kid and it just never appealed to me all that much even though I was a big Godzilla movie fan and I still am. This show just really outlines a problem in my book, us Americans strange need to make Godzilla into something he is not. We never make him look like the Japanese version, we mess with how strong he is and we generally seem to want to name stuff Godzilla when they just are not Godzilla. Even the movie which was rather bad at least got his roar right, this does not even do that. They add a stupid monster named Gadzooky too which is a real annoyance, but then again the Japanese do have a baby Godzilla that would be seriously lame in "Godzilla's Revenge". Still the idea of Godzilla being summoned like an attack dog or something is rather lame too, though they sort of did that in "Godzilla vs Megalon", however in most of the movies even where he is good he comes of his on accord. The fights in this series are sorely lacking as well as I find it rather pathetic that the fights in the live action movies are better, more epic than a cartoon show. I mean it is animation, you are not bound to the laws of physics and stuff you can do anything and most of the battles are horrible. And why does Godzilla always blow fire in America, in Japan it is a radioactive breath, here he always breaths fire, he is not a dragon, but then the fact they remove his cool back plates and make his head bigger he does look more like a dragon than Godzilla and Gadzooky most certainly looks like one.

    Although this has got to be one of my favorite series from my Childhood, as I look at it with the eyes of an adult I see many, many flaws. The animation was great and I love the monster designs. But why no origin stories, allot of seventy shows did that and it really bugged me. How did Captain Majors get control of the greatest monsters of them all. That's one, two, if they had Toho's permission to use Godzilla's name and likeness, then why not use the original sound effect. I love Ted Cassidy, but I would have preferred the classic roar. Next, breathing fire? Godzilla never breathed fire, it was a form of radiation that blows stuff up. Why change it to fire? To dumb it down I imagine. Lastly but not least. None of the new monsters have names, they were the Firebird or the Eartheater. No imagination in the writing. The voice over cast does a great job and I still love this series, despite it's fault, after all, isn't that what love is all about? 7 STARS

    I saw this show when I was a small kid. I remember that Godzooky was cute and funny. And I thought that Godzilla was a dragon. This was in the mid 80's or something, before I watched GODZILLA VS GIGAN in the early 90's. The bad thing about this show, was that it was a disappointment to fans! His roar is done by Ted Cassidy. It is rumbley, grating, and stupid! Godzooky was voiced by Don Messick. His laugh sounded like, Scooby-Doo! Nowadays, my brother is annoyed by the show, because of the little boy's redundacy. Hey, a lot of you fans who is reading this will know that he is annoying as Ichiro from GODZILLA'S REVENGE (1969), or Goro Ubuki from GODZILLA VS MEGALON (1973). Now I know that Godzooky files, and he is Godzilla's nephew. So, that means Godzooky's father is Rodan! And Rodan and Godzilla are brothers! Godzooky is a hybrid! Anyway, the show would look cool if they shown cartoonizations of King Ghidorah, Gigan, Megalon, Mothra, Rodan, Hedorah. That would be cool. It would be great that they re-released the show, only this time replace the stupid roars of Godzilla and Godzooky with Godzilla and Minya's roar from the movies. That would be great for Cartoon Network, or the Sci-Fi channel in honor of Godzilla's 50th Anniversary. Happy 50th Anniversary Godzilla! Let GODZILLA FINAL WARS (due out in Japanese theatres, December 11th) break a leg!

    I like to watch this cartoon when there is nothing else on despite it being rarely on TV. This cartoon is funny if you're a kid but since I am 12 I think the idea of Godzooky personaly stinks. I mean I can cope with Minya but Godzooky will get annoying.
