I had to finish this in parts because i was laughing too hard. In response to the untold thousands of angry fans in the comments: 1. For God's sake calm down, the reason Godzilla is a girl is because this is a parody of Orange is the new Black. 2. The canonical gender of the Godzilla kaiju is set by Toho. According to them, the only female kaiju in the series are one of the original Rodans, most of the Mothras, Biollante, Megaguirus, and one of the Mutos. 3. Over the years various fans have believed several canonically male kaiju to be female, including Destoroyah (anatomy resembling that of female crustaceans), Showa Rodan (it's never made clear which of the pair survived), Mothra Leo and Battra (most other Mothras are female), Kamacuras and Kumonga (female insects are larger), Zilla (Idiotic m-preg subplot intended to capitalize on the success of Jurassic Park), and Godzilla himself (mistaken for biological parent of foster offspring). 4. An interesting note comes from Haruo Nakajima, suit actor from 1954 to 1972, who claims that the second Showa Godzilla (1955-1975) was a female while the original was male, probably due to the relative slimness of the subsequent suits for better use in fight scenes. As this belief probably translated to Nakajima's portrayal of Godzilla in nearly all of the original Showa series, it would not be amiss to consider the Showa Godzilla to be female.
The added sound effects are what really make this great.
They did the same with Destoroyah's final form, though it could be argued that his earlier forms weren't impressive enough for marketing.
A lot of the GvsBiollante publicity spoils Biollante's final form, wich in the movie is supposed to come as a surprise. I guess they couldn't resist.
True. It’s no surprise though, Toho have/had a habit of completely spoiling their own films during their development. I remember following Final Wars and knowing what happened through practically the whole film before even seeing it. It would have been cool if they’d kept at least Keizer Ghidorah a secret!
