I'm [legally obtaining] Clash of the titans because of Perseus' cameo in GoW2, so I thought, what the hell, I'd like some more movies. Mythology please, don't care what year as long as it's not boring and is in color, but I slightly prefer more recent movies (within the last 10 years).

Also, what Godzilla movies are there that have a good looking Godzilla, instead of the 50's version, I'd prefer more like the Godzilla movie, you know, CGI or whatever, even though that movie sucked more **** than [generic celebrity with sex tape].

Thanks very much.

There was a movie based on The Odyssey by Homer. I don't know if it was good or not.

1963? Holy ****, it doesn't get boring does it, that tends to happens with me and films older than 30 years. ?for reference, I'm 13, so yeah, attention spans be damned, but even then, it's hard for me to sit through watching the first James Bond.

As far as Final Wars goes, how's the visual on it, is it the old style, or did they adopt new more realistic ways of portraying Godzilla and pals?

Only 13? Jeez. No offense, but your mind needs to mature before you can handle all those old "classics".

I dont think there have been any Godzilla movies that have had him/her in 3D but the American one.

There WAS this one movie where the original GZ destroys our crappy 3D GZ because it was an evil clone or alien... or something.

 

I can't recommend alot of movies since I know you wont be able to watch them, but if you want a game, try out Age of Mythology wih the Titans Expansion. Fun times :)

Aside from the american version of Godzilla, just bout all of them had a guy in a suit beating the hell outta another guy in a suit.  But that's part of the charm of the movies., although some people might not think so.  The effects of the movies from the the mid-90's on weren't bad, though.

It's a good mixture of CGI and old school style.

Allright, it may not be a GODZILLA movie, but it is an awesome monster movie in the same vein as Godzilla and it is very recent:
