Why. Why is this movie so loved? I dont get it. First of, King Ghidorah is a good guy? He does look like a creature that could be an ancient fantasy dragon, but still...isnt it uncorrect? Godzilla is revived by the souls of those who died in world war 2? And the costume wasnt that good. But the worst thing is the ending. He dies. He is killed by humans. Maybe im wrong and im not a troll, i just dont understand. Does anyone wanna answer my question?

Come to our macaroni party then we'll take a nap!
"The thing that won't die, in the nightmare that won't end."
Because not everyone is as biased as you are against the Millenium series, that's why.
Plus, the story is really good, the special effects too and it's not as if it was the first time Godzilla got killed by humans. The reversed roles between Ghidorah and Godzilla is pretty surprising and controversial, but at the same time, it's alright since they remain enemies and the movie is not following any other Godzilla movies outside of the 1954 movie(and 1998), so Ghidorah can be whatever he wants.
They didn't kill him.
His heart was still beating on the ocean floor, he could recover from that.
"Why. Why is this movie so loved? I dont get it."
Because it is one of the best Godzilla films out there, with (mostly) top-notch effects and a story that is fascinatingly compelling in terms of the various themes that it covers (WW2 legacy, nationalism, memory and the very real threat of it being lost, accountability, etc). It's not a perfect film, but it is one of the best Godzillas out there.
"First of, King Ghidorah is a good guy? He does look like a creature that could be an ancient fantasy dragon, but still...isnt it uncorrect?"
He had been made into a "good guy" before as "Mecha-King Ghidorah", plus Toho had altered his origin as being three rat things that just fused together after the bomb dropped in that same film. Compared to that, this is nothing to get angry over.
"Godzilla is revived by the souls of those who died in world war 2?"
They revived Godzilla in order to punish Japan for their deliberate and callous disregard of not only their victims and their crimes, but also their memory as well. In fact, Akira Ifukube and the original creators stated in interviews that Godzilla was such even before this film had been made.
"But the worst thing is the ending. He dies. He is killed by humans."
In the 54 movie he was killed by humans, Dr. Serizawa more specifically. In this, not really - his beating heart is very much suggestive of him not being dead.
"And the costume wasnt that good."
Compared to a lot of Godzilla costumes, it's one of the notably better ones, especially the awful ones from the 60s and 70s.
Movie is severely overrated, and your whole paragraph is just an opinion 😎
shareAgreed. King Ghidorah as a hero and protector is just stupid as hell. He should have been the villain, with Godzilla, Mothra and Baragon teaming up against him. I'm sick of the newer films being so HELLBENT on Godzilla always being the bad guy that you're supposed to root against, which is moronic.

So it's an alternate universe of sorts, a what if the roles were reversed?? I was looking for something to watch and found this in my old collection of DVD'S from like 20 Years ago and it's in good condition and in subtitles.. I guess I'm the only one who enjoys it
