Godzilla: An Unstoppable Franchise, video essay

In this video I go over a small part of Godzillas history from 1954 to today and how this massive franchise is the longest running of all time, this was a small project I have been working on and it's the first time I am attempting this so give me feedback as you will. I also wanna say this video is also heavily inspired by D Man 1954's video essay on the monsterverse so much of the credit should go to him.

Originally I had Blue Oyster Cult's version of Godzilla however it got copyrighted so I had to change it so that's why they have credits at the end lol, also this video had to remade multiple times to fix the copyright lmfao

I cannot wait to see what they do next with the big G!!!! #LONGLIVETHEKING

Great to see new creators that cover kaiju. Keep improving and keep up the good work!

Amazing 👏

AYYY, LET BRO COOK

[@nickbolo]

Very well written and very epic

[@Josh-sz8ip]

But lots of Godzilla fans do love the Showa era films. I love camp. My favourite superhero of all time is Bayonetta.

[@ShowyPopcorn]

Yeah but again that's us fans, to most casual audiences they poked fun at those films and didn't take Godzilla seriously

[@Josh-sz8ip]

@@ShowyPopcorn Good news is Adam Wingard's Godzilla x Kong is the most profitable MonsterVerse film, and his top five favourite Godzilla movies are all Showa era except G Vs Destoroyah, so maybe the general public like it as long as the camp isn't above a 6/10 on the camp scale, and the monsters are motion capture CGI instead of man in a suit. The cinematography was also limited in the Showa era, because the CGI and modern motion camera tech was more primitive. You couldn't get a cool shot of the ocean waves freezing as the camera turns upside down and the music slows down, and you couldn't get epic close ups of Godzilla opening his eyes when he senses an unruly titan attacking humans, and the atomic breath couldn't light up the suit or look and sound as cool.
Maybe Showa era was ahead of it's time. It couldn't really work for western audiences until new technological developments had been made, like if Van Gogh had died before oil paints were invented as a vessel through which his talent could flourish.

Good material and fair points made. Might want to work on the editing a tad though as you can improve on timing and quality of the cuts,
