For me, not contest as well, but in the opposite direction. However, its worth noting that I saw King Kong when I was six, and had a much lower crap threshold than when Godzilla came out and I was 28. :)

Agreed-- and Jessica Lange is totally friggin' hot in it.

Godzilla was one of the worst and stupidest pieces of crap I've ever seen. I rank it up (down?) there with Batman and Robin

That may be the right frame of mind to watch it. I hated that Godzilla kept changing size and how it turned into Jurassic Park at the end.

i liked them both.

In all fairness, i haven't seen the King Kong 76 version since i was in my early teens... it's possible my opinion on it may have changed.
