That's nostalgia talking though.
Don't get me wrong, JP is a classic and it will always be one, but its flaws, similar to Godzilla, are there.
It's a lot of what ifs, but if we somehow hold two films to the same standard, and they have similar flaws, you can't ignore them.
There are many stuff JP does better than Godzilla, but it's true for the other way around too.
In spite of all that, JP is fucking amazing lol
