@KaijuZilla of course! Nostalgia goggles FTW!

Kinda like how people say the original Transformers cartoon is awesome, even though it's completely stupid. The original Transformers cartoon IS awesome. Is it silly at times? Yes but no more than TMNT or the Showa era Godzilla movies. As for GODZILLA, I liked the movie. Granted it's not great, but it's not as terrible as some think. Personally I think the Zilla name change was pointless spite against Tri-Star and a response to pissy fan boy purists. They were never even suppose to exist in the same universe. The Zilla in Final Wars isn't even the same monster as the 1998 version or the animated series version. But they own the copyright so it's their call unfortunately. Pointless spite? Zilla doesn't even remotely looks like any other incarnation of Godzilla! Also, the Japanese films aren't a one, all encompassing canon! How would Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack fit in with all those other movies? How can The Return of Godzilla say the 1954 film happened, but nothing else in the Showa era did?
