NOKW - Godzilla

Here comes the next chapter in our "I'm Okay With, I'm Not Okay With" series where I point out things in a movie I can tolerate and then one thing I just couldn't (if you want, click here for all of the past posts):

Movie:  Godzilla (1998)

Basic Plot:  A crappy movie about a giant lizard.

I'm Okay With:  Nothing.  Absolutely nothing.

I'm Not Okay With:  The fact that they cast Matthew Broderick as the lead in a Godzilla movie.  The fact that Godzilla thought New York was the perfect place to create its nest and not some deserted island.  The fact that they couldn't find Godzilla during the chase scenes considering it is a 300-foot tall lizard.  The fact that the mayor of New York kept complaining about having to evacuate the city even though it was being destroyed by a giant monster.  The fact that this movie was just a blatant attempt to cash in on the Jurassic Park success.  The fact that Godzilla was able to burrow under the city so easily considering its size.  The fact that Godzilla was able to lay so many eggs in such a short period of time.  The fact that the baby Godzillas were nothing but Velociraptor rip-offs.  The fact that the baby Godzillas were so easily foiled by a floor covered in gumballs.  The fact that Godzilla somehow was able to lay an egg inside of Madison Square Garden's locker room.  The fact that this movie sucked so hard that Hollywood thought remaking another American version would be a good idea.

"The fact that they made Godzilla look nothing like Godzilla."
