- In a scene in the first part of the film,
a couple of helicopters are seen from above
when they fly over a a line of giant footprints
(in Panama, I think). In the beginning of
the scene the sun shines bright and there
are sharp shadows in the footprints, but when
shadows from clouds takes out the bright sunshine,
the shadows in the prints are just as sharp
as before. - Olav Westerman
- If you search for a creature as big as Godzilla
in New York, it is not a good idea to fly
the helicopters low down between the high
buildings, since your view will be very restricted.
- Olav Westerman
- When the taxi with Nick and everybody is
trapped in the tunnel by Godzilla, the big
lizard reaches in his hand and scrapes the
road, tearing it up. After the taxi
starts moving, under the car, it's smooth!
- Bob
- When Godzilla is chasing the cab across
the Brooklyn bridge, he breaks some of the
cables on the bridge and he collapses that
tower with all the cables on it and they snap.
Since the Brooklyn bridge is a suspension
bridge, if any of the cables snapped, the
whole bridge would come tumbling down. Yet
the bridge doesn't collapse, even with the
weight of Godzilla on it!! - Joe Skakos
- When Godzilla is approaching Manhattan,
the massive footsteps cause cars to bounce.
However the people nearby aren't affected.
Shouldn't they bounce too if the force of
these footsteps are powerful enough to lift
a car off the ground? - movieguy
- Godzilla is able to out run and catch an
Apache attack helicopter, yet has real trouble
catching a New York cab. Then again don't
we all! - sweetlips
- Godzilla is strong enough to just run through
the biggest skyscraper in New York. However,
when he runs through the Brooklyn Bridge,
he gets trapped in the cables. Worse, he is
not even able to tear up the tunnel where
the taxi is hiding. - mellow

- (Spoiler) (Factual
errors) The two fighter jets that bring down
the big G were armed with sidewinders, (some
one says so earlier) an air to air missile.
Aircraft are flimsy targets and don't need
much of a blast to destroy, the sidewinder's
warhead weighs less than five Killogrames
it would hardly grazed some thing that size!
Also the wounds look like huge bullet holes,
missiles explode on contact and would make
a large shallow wound not a neat hole! - Tallon

- When Godzilla chases one of the helicopters,
the pilot tries to get away by continuing
to fly at the same level between the buildings,
instead of just increasing the altitude to
above the monsters reach. - Olav
Westerman
- Correction: Olav
seems to know little about helicopters.
If the pilot would increase altitude fast,
he would loose speed even faster and his
helicopter would end up in a downward
spiral, crashing into the street. If you
would read the book, there the pilot says
it's impossible for him to fly on a higher
level at that time. - Bart
