Godzilla (1954)

Serizawa's sacrifice is in vain as Godzilla does not die, but is instead horribly weakened and maimed

Godzilla Raids Again (1956)

Would be given more production time (you may or not be aware that this movie was scripted, shot, and released in less than a year)

The same Godzilla from the first film, with hideous scarring a la ShinGoji, makes a destructive trek across Japan to tangle with Anguirus, who Godzilla defeats and kills.

Son of Godzilla (1957)

A similar film to the 1967 classic (I love that movie) but with a more serious tone and direct peril to the human cast from even smaller Kamacuras, and an even bigger Kumonga, introduces us to  a more human Godzilla and a world potentially full of monsters

Godzilla vs Gigantis (1958)

Godzilla fights a clone of himself, the origins of which are left unclear, and defeats him with the help of Minya.

Godzilla and Rodan (1960)

Godzilla and son team up with Rodan to bring down the ultimate foe: Ghidorah! Minya is killed by Ghidorah in the film's climax.

Godzilla: Invasion of the Astro-Monster (1961)

This entry introduces us to the alien origins of Ghidorah and reveals that Gigantis was created by the Xiliens. Godzilla and Rodan once again fight together to bring down Space Ghidorah (a purplish Ghidorah that breathes fire)

Mothra vs Godzilla (1962)

Godzilla is back on Earth and Rodan is nowhere to be seen.

This film plays out similar to the original Mothra vs Godzilla

<p class="MsoNormal">King Kong vs Godzilla (1964)

<p class="MsoNormal">Better Kong suit. Stronger story. Godzilla is definitively killed at the end.

<p class="MsoNormal">Terror of Mechagodzilla (1970)

<p class="MsoNormal">The Xiliens return to wreak havoc on Earth with a new weapon: MG1, aka Mechagodzilla. Mechagodzilla defeats Gezora and a man-made mechanical weapon, MOGUERA, with ease, before a new Godzilla appears to save humanity.

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla vs the Smog Monster (1972)

<p class="MsoNormal">A better version of Smog Monster, featuring Hedorah with all the same abilities and less of the misguided weirdness.

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla and Jet Jaguar (1973)

<p class="MsoNormal">The fan-created character gets a mention in the film's title and teams up with Big G to take down Megalon

<p class="MsoNormal">Mechagodzilla's Counterattack (1975)

<p class="MsoNormal">The last film of the Showa series sees Godzilla mind-controlled by the Xiliens and fighting with an upgraded Mechagodzilla to destroy the world. Rodan, King Kong, Mothra, and Jet Jaguar team up to defeat the mechanical menace and force Godzilla into the ocean, where a new Oxygen Destroyer finally kills him.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Heisei Continuity

<p class="MsoNormal">Return of Godzilla (1985)

<p class="MsoNormal">Not a direct sequel to G54. This is the first appearance of Godzilla. Other than that, this goes down pretty much the same as G84, but the Gotengo stands in for the Super X. At the end, Godzilla is frozen on Monster Island rather than lured into a volcano.

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla's Revenge (1987)

<p class="MsoNormal">Big G has escaped his confinement. Shockirus have overrun Japan. There seems to be no hope. Mothra, Varan, and Anguirus appear in Hawaii, Turkey, and Australia, respectively, and take the fight to Godzilla. The much smaller Rhedosaurus appears, which feeds on Shockirus. Godzilla is overwhelmed and seemingly killed by his monster foes.

<p class="MsoNormal">Toho's THE BEAST FROM 20,000 FATHOMS (1988)

<p class="MsoNormal">A remake of the classic Harryahusen film tells the new origin for Rhedosaurus. Rhedosaurus appears in 1886 near the US Navy base in Norfolk, Virginia and wreaks havoc on the East Coast, killing millions in New York City before disappearing entirely.

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla (1990)

<p class="MsoNormal">A new, smaller Godzilla returns to Japan, and the JSDF tries to repel it with its newest superweapons, and upgraded Gotengo called Atragon, and the technological marvel, Mechagodzilla. Rodan is also present, but does not affect the plot in any meaningful way.

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla: Resurgence (1991)

<p class="MsoNormal">The original Godzilla (as in the one from 1985-1987) makes a triumphant return, fighting his destructive counterpart

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla vs Battra (1992)

<p class="MsoNormal">This movie sees Godzilla take on a malevolent god that takes on the form of a moth-like creature who wishes to destroy humanity and cleanse the Earth. Battra heralds the arrival of the Destroyer.

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla vs the Destroyer (1994)

<p class="MsoNormal">In the last film of the Heisei continuity, Godzilla unites with mankind in order to destroy an infinitely powerful demonic monster known as the Destroyer. The Destroyer is stopped but Godzilla is killed in the final battle.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Millenium Continuity

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla vs Nessie (2004)

<p class="MsoNormal">In a direct sequel to Godzilla Raids Again, Godzilla makes a return for his 50th anniversary to battle the Loch Ness Monster

<p class="MsoNormal">Godzilla vs SpaceGodzilla (2006)

<p class="MsoNormal">Set in 2050, a nuclear test on the Martian surface creates a horrifying mutant, SpaceGodzilla, who used power within its shoulder crystals to fly to Earth and wreak havoc. An aging Godzilla must use every ounce of his remaining strength to defeat his otherworldly counterpart.

<p class="MsoNormal">Ghidorah: The Three-Headed Monster (2007)

<p class="MsoNormal">Back in the modern day, Godzilla fights a revamped Ghidorah, who is capable of sapping a creature's life-force through its fangs, similar to Keizer Ghidorah.

<p class="MsoNormal">Destroy All Monsters (2009)

<p class="MsoNormal">The Xiliens are back, and Godzilla teams up with Rodan, Mothra, Rhedosaurus, Varan, Anguirus, and King Kong to stop them and their monstrous creations: Hedorah, Ebirah, Gigantis, and Gigan. Cool timeline. I like it. Thanks, mate
