Hello, everyone. MDK here.

So lately, I was pondering about something. I was watching this video on who would win between Kong (2017) and Zilla (1998), and in that video, it said that Zilla was one of the fastest kaiju we have ever seen, clocking in at a top speed of 300 miles per hour. And then I thought to myself that Zilla could beat Legendary Godzilla in a race. However, I wasn't sure if that was true or not. But then it struck me: I didn't know how fast Legendary Godzilla really is on land. So I am asking everyone this question: How fast is Legendary Godzilla when he is on land? (Both walking and running.)

Now before you answer, here are some things we do know (Feel free to point out any other information if I missed any.):

-We know that Titanus Gojira has a top swimming speed of 40 knots, or roughly ~67 miles per hour, but that is in the water.

-Zilla's top running speed is 300 miles per hour.

-Titanus Gojira got boosted up with a nuclear bomb in the film, so his speed might have increased due to the power-up. (Which is why I want you all to give his top speeds for before the bomb power-up [Act 1, Godzilla vs. Ghidorah in Antarctica], during [Act 2-3, the Battle at Boston] and after [Near the end of Act 3, Titans bowing down to him.] in numbers.) And yes, I am aware there may be some who will say his speed at the end of Act 3 will be the same as in Act 1, and there will also be some who disagree with that statement. But I am open to speculation from either side, so if you think you agree with either/or, then it is fine by me. Everyone has their own opinions, including me.

And with that, the speculation has begun. Good luck, everyone. And remember, accuracy is needed for this fact, as well as an actual number estimate for both walking and running.

Also, everyone can join in, and that means EVERYONE on the website (Admins, Moderators, Veteran Memers, etc.), so feel free to join in.

That is all for now. Let's just wait and see.

You mean in 2019, right? Also, that's your answer for his running speed in Antarctica, right?

No, I mean the swimming speed stated in 2014 was 67 mph. In 2019, at the very maximum a running speed of 100 mph and a swimming speed of 131 mph.

If people weren't lazy, we wouldn't try to be efficient. If we weren't efficient, we'd never get anything done.

Hello everyone. I know that I've been dormant on this topic for a while, but that's because I was just being patient and waiting for everyone's response like the nice person I am. So if anyone wants to comment their answer, then please do so. (Especially the Admins, moderators, and macumbalove. [If you want to, macumba. DO NOT BE MAD AT ME OR THEM, Kamoebas V.6! EVERYONE is included.] Still waiting on all of them, along with everyone else.) So yeah, that is all, and good luck, everyone. :)

Godzilla can run at 200 mph when super-charged.

This is a forum to discuss how fast he is when he is not supercharged.

Also, has anybody still seen the Admins or moderators? I'm still waiting for their responses & answers.

Hmm... G.H. Gman was on yesterday.

Anyways, I THINK Godzilla can run at about 80 mph

He can run as fast as the screenplay needs him to.

Of course, I understand that is (unfortunately) true, but this isn't about that. This is about his speed in general, regardless of plot-convenience. (Just like how the impact of him crashing into Boston should've been bigger than what it was, but it wasn't because of the human protagonists.) So generally speaking, while this is true, this forum isn't about that.

So if that's your final answer (unless you had one that is actually more "calculable"), then that's okay. Otherwise, do tell your other answer. (If you have one, that is.)

That's my final answer.

I'm not very interested in the stats or fantasy battles going on here. You know who wins the fantasy battles? Whoever is writing them. The stats given by filmmakers, Toho source books, art books, etc are cool for reference at all, but probably won't always be consistent with what's onscreen or what's needed for the story.

Example: Toho gave two different official heights for Heisei King Ghidorah. Verdict? Oh, well. It doesn't really affect anything.

I just don't see the point in nailing down exact numbers for made up creatures, nor do I really care too much most of the time.

That's ok, then. I was just curious. Thank you for your input. :)
