Re: Godzilla: Overrated, Underrated Or Too Balanced
Probably a silly answer but which one? The original Godzilla was destroyed by the Oxygen Destroyer and left a pile of bones on the bottom of Tokyo Harbor. Later Godzilla releases by TOHO all changed the costume, what he could do to a degree and even how he transitioned from foe to friend sort of. Then you have the Matthew Broderick Godzilla that looked like a giant lizard and destroyed New York. The current release of Godzilla is closer to the original idea of him but we're still waiting to see which way they take that franchise now.
Monster wise the only one he didn't beat was King Kong. The other matches between them was considered a draw. But the later premise of all the monsters being rounded up and placed on Monster Island sort of rules out battles with the established foe's who were earth monsters such as Rodan, Mothra, Angulis. So they have to develop new foe's or modify existing ones which at this point in time can't say what they shall become. Look what was done to Mothra and King Gidora in later movies.
So my answer would have to be he is all of your choices depending upon which time frame your looking at in that creature's movie history.I'm Only Responsible For What I Say Not For What Or How You Understand!

Dont forget Godzillas baby Minya and Godzillas cousin Godzuki ...I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them ... John Bernard Books
Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official; "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued; "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied.. "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the work, Medicine Man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."
Then the chief leaned back and smiled; "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."
