Questions and forced analysis of the plot

Doubt 1, the protagonist's tactics are not very clever. 20 years ago, the wisdom of all mankind could not have come up with such a method~
Forced analysis, the focus of this action is to analyze Godzilla's cry to find the gap between electromagnetic waves and attack, Maybe 20 years ago, there was no ability to analyze electromagnetic waves, right? But in fact, no analysis is needed. With the naked eye, you can see that Godzilla is accumulating energy in the dorsal fin before every mouth shot, right? The people on earth 20 years ago were blind in addition to being unskilled...

Doubt 2, the chief found that the ecology on the earth was no longer suitable for human habitation. Such a clever method, why not 20 years ago?
Forcibly analyzing it, probably thinks that it is too difficult to retreat to the moon to build a base. Anyway, I have the ability of interstellar navigation, so I simply go to a suitable planet.

Doubt 3, it took 20 years to go from Earth to the new colony, but it only took a moment to return to the warp space. Why is this?
Forced analysis, we can only think that when we went, humans only mastered the technology of sub-light speed flight (11 light-years traveled for 20 years), and it took 20 years to develop the technology of space jumping. This also echoes the first point, the technology of human beings is still improving in recent years.

The role of Colonel was supposed to be very deep. As soon as Da Zuo appeared on the scene, in the dialogue with the protagonist, he felt that he was a radical young careerist eager to make achievements and replace the old man. He was scared by the little dinosaur and prepared to retreat, showing the side of greed for life and fear of death (of course, as a commander, there is no consideration of avoiding unnecessary casualties. Wrong), was later infected by the protagonist of the second illness, and drove a walking tank to die for Godzilla. Several of his behaviors here are contradictory. Although it is said that people are a combination of contradictions, it may be limited by space. The transformation of the chief's mind is not well portrayed, which led me to think that there are several different people here.

Although the plot is flawed, this main theme movie can still express a little depth. Alien priests always seem to be aware of it. Their nation has been drifting in the universe for too long and has lost its blood. They always take shelter and spiritual comfort brought by religious belief. Therefore, he has a soft spot for the protagonist and wants to understand and help this human being who has not given up hope in the face of difficulties. Humanity has experienced a long period of disaster and wandering, and gradually gave up hope. The explosion of the landing craft at the beginning is actually not the protagonist's bomb or a high-level conspiracy. As the old man in the video with the protagonist said, they have drifted for 20 years and are tired. They chose to rest. The protagonist has a strange obsession with defeating Godzilla and taking back the earth. It looks like a middle schooler, but in fact, only the protagonist understands the biggest dilemma of human beings. It is not only a Godzilla, but human beings have lost their courage and become like aliens People are just as sullen, and only by fighting hard can there be hope of revitalizing mankind. In the end, when the super-sized Godzilla appeared and the human landing team was wiped out, normally it should be hopeless, but the protagonist Yazai still did not give up under the ruins. It is this indomitable spirit that human beings are qualified to dominate this planet. proof.

Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters quotes

  • Haruo Sakaki: You bastard, I have... killed you!

    [fires at Godzilla]

  • Martin Lazzari: You've accomplished it, Captain.

    Haruo Sakaki: Because everyone believed in and supported me. I could be so daring and get this far. Even though we defeated it... What was it, really? How was it able to live for 20,000 years?

    Martin Lazzari: This is just my opinion, but I think this is a different Godzilla than the one that drove us from Earth.

    Haruo Sakaki: But its appearance and abilities were almost identical.

    Martin Lazzari: And that's why exactly why. Life's true nature is found in change. No matter how gradual the renewal cycle may be, it's impossible to maintain the exact same appearance. So this only may be an offspring that inherited Godzilla's form and nature. Such a guess would actually be the most natural. Although the question remains of why there was only this one. Also...

    Haruo Sakaki: So, there's no guarantee only one of them survived.

    Martin Lazzari: I apologize if what I'm saying spoils the victory, but that is correct.

    Haruo Sakaki: That's fine. Thanks to this battle, we proved that we can defeat Godzilla. Even if another one shows up, we have nothing to fear. Since we've established a valid strategy, we can be more effective next time.

    Martin Lazzari: Personally, I would never want to cross a tightrope like that ever again, though.
