Godzilla is probably not your best barbecue guest. But his visit should flatten whatever of the neighborhood the Fifty-Foot Woman didn’t, and flame-broil the neighbors, to boot!
Ours were better. The “stop-action animation” creatures were always more interesting than “the guy in the rubber suit” monsters (which ALWAYS looked like a guy in a rubber suit).
The Japanese monster movies are a unique genre; something the Japanese film makers do better than anyone. I can’t say I haven’t enjoyed watching them (tho’ I must admit that I’ve liked them best when viewing them on Mystery Science Theater 3000, for my tendency was always to poke fun at them). I think there is room in the world of cinema for all efforts, and if you can define a genre you’ve accomplished a lot (same with art and writing and music, etc.).

Always have a back-up plan in case the fire goes out.
