Talk:Japanese Godzilla Reboot (2016)/@comment-27208130-20141228054555/@comment-25285745-20150307035959

Suitmation is not obsolete. It's a lost and dying art that has become a staple of tokusatsu and kaiju eiga for the last half century. Sure, CGI has become the most popular technique and is arguably the most realistic, but that doesn't mean that all other special effects techniques should be thrown out the window. I for one greatly prefer good practical effects to CGI any day, and while I'd like to see CGI implemented to enhance the effects in this film, I'd frankly be disappointed if suits were not predominantly used. It's a way to keep the art of suitmation alive and to distinguish this film from Legendary's.
