Yes, I've always thought of junior as "adopted" by Godzilla, so to speak.

It's weird that the older I get, the more I enjoy the "sillier" Godzilla films! I couldn't stomach them as a kid, though.

Believe it or not, the juvenile GODZILLA'S REVENGE worked well for me several years ago, when I watched it with my two little nephews. Yes, it's a complete washout for an adult; but it's not really a "bad" movie when you consider it is aimed for children and to teach them how to defend themselves against bullies and so forth.

Any Godzilla flick is more entertaining than GODZILLA RAIDS AGAIN, for my money.
