** The AdventurerArchaeologist sequence at the beginning is viewed as a unique sequence for the series and is one of the first things many people trying to learn more about the movie will hear about.
** The conclusion of the final showdown, where Mothra and Battra carry a beaten but still gamely fighting Godzilla out to sea [[spoiler:and he kills Battra]] is a powerful sequence of images that still warrants some talk.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Godzilla is offscreen for much of the film and has no real motivation for being involved in the plot, which revolves almost entirely around Mothra and Battra. Arguably, the only reason he’s here is to allow Battra to have a HeelFaceTurn and team with Mothra against a common enemy.

** Honestly, the BeamOWar battles had already begun way back in ''Godzilla vs. Biollante''. ''Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah'' literally has several shots where Godzilla is on one side of the screen and King Ghidorah is on the other and laser beams blast in the center.
