Ok. Im a newbie to Godzilla. I own the original on DVD and have seen the occasional Godzilla film on TV when I was little. I dont remember much about them though. I watched the Cinemassacre's Godzillathon and it was a hoot. I just would like to know the top 5 most entertaining Godzilla films for starters. Im not interested in continuity at the moment and I dont care what era the five are from. I just want a general list of what you fans think are the most purely entertaining of the series.

Thanks loads!

It's really a matter of opinion T, I'd say you'd have to watch all the movies yourself to form that list. But the five movies I've seen get the most praise are.

Gojira (The original)

Destroy All Monsters

Godzilla vs Mothra (The Original)

Godzilla vs Destroyah

Godzilla Tokyo: S.O.S.

It's not rape if you yell surprise.
