The thing being, of course, that Godzilla and Mechagodzilla both do exactly the wrong thing I just mentioned where they stand and move like a human in a suit (because, obviously, they are a human in a suit) and they're also 20x the height of a T Rex (5 meters vs 100+ meters)

It's the whole thing where kaiju don't have any biological adaptations to being absurdly huge for a land dwelling animal because they're played by a guy in a rubber suit on a miniature set that makes them extra surreal implies their bodies are many times denser than steel etc

I mean Shin Godzilla is in the same mold as the Angels from Eva where they were, like, abstract Lovecraftian horror

The later Angels outright violate physics in very blatant ways, creating pocket dimensions and shit
