One of my favorite parts of the film. It's so silly of them to keep it in.

One of my favorite parts of the film. It's so silly of them to keep it in The word "silly" seems a little harsh, don't you think, Kex? After all, Godzilla is a monster, a living creature made up of flesh and blood. Is it "silly" to think that body parts on an living creature might move in a random or indiscriminate manner from time to time? You are aware of the circumstances that led to the quivering lip on the "Mosugoji" suit, right?

From IMDB: Quote: # The famous scene where Godzilla destroys the castle in Nagoya actually had to be filmed several times, and the castle had to be built twice. To make the castle fall correctly, two men are sitting behind pushing it with long sticks. The first time scene was shot, the two men pushed too soon, and the castle collapsed before Godzilla even touches it. The miniature castle then had to be rebuilt to redo the scene. The 2nd time, the opposite problem happens, and the two men miss their cue. You can see when Godzilla slams into the castle, it doesn't move. A second take had to be done with Godzilla clawing away at it as the two men push it over from behind. The moment where Godzillas foot slides on the ledge (causing him to fall into the castle) has been thought by many to be an accident. According to Haruo Nakajima (the actor inside Godzilla) the fall was actually scripted that way and done on purpose. # When the sequence of Godzilla being fire bombed was being shot, during one of the takes, the flaming liquid splashed up onto Godzilla's head. The fuel quickly burned away and the flames went out. Inside the suit, performer Haruo Nakajima was unaware of the accident since the head of the suit is well above Nakajima's own head. Godzilla's head aflame became an unplanned bonus to the effects shot and it was included in the final cut. From Wikipedia: Quote: The upper lip on the Godzilla suit in this film has a slight wobble. This was originally an accident; in the filming of a scene where Godzilla smashes into the Nagoya Castle, the actor in the suit (Haruo Nakajima) fell, and the suit's head slammed into the castle, loosening the teeth. Special effects director Eiji Tsuburaya liked this so much that he wanted to keep the suit like that for a while

As to Godzilla's erupting up out of the ground, you described this sequence as weird. What was weird about it to you?

Well I see what I'm getting at, most fans at seeing this would think it's weird at first sight, last movie he was seen falling in the sea, the next coming out of the ground. I meen, he could have been washed up and buried, but why bother having him buried when having him come out of the sea so much more easy.
