Showa Era
The “classic” period of Godzilla movies, the Shōwa era contains most of the films people think of when they picture our favorite atomic lizard. Weirdly, even though this period begins with the decidedly bleak and somber 1954 original, it’s best known for the franchise’s goofier moments, including Godzilla’s ludicrous son Minilla and pretty much every pro-wrestling-style GIF you’ve ever seen of the mighty kaiju.

Heisei Era
The Heisei era is much darker than the Shōwa era, an attempt to return Godzilla to his roots as an antagonist and as a grim allegory of the nuclear arms race. It also includes the longest stretch of continuity of any period of the franchise, with each film directly carrying events and characters over into the next.

Millennium Era
The Millennium era of Godzilla movies goes in the opposite direction of the Heisei era, with virtually no film in this period sharing any continuity with each other (Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla and Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. being the only exceptions). Its tone is a mix of the previous two eras, but the primarily villainous characterization of Godzilla is closer to the Heisei period.

Reiwa Era
The Reiwa era began with the 2016 live-action reboot Shin Godzilla and continued with a self-contained trilogy of animated features. This period contains the biggest narrative changes in the Godzilla franchise; in particular, the animated trilogy takes place in a distant future, long after the entire planet has fallen to Godzilla.

MonsterVerse
While the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DCU tend to be the biggest topics of conversation among shared universes, Warner Bros. and Legendary Entertainment have had a pretty successful run with their MonsterVerse. The franchise updates two iconic movie monsters, Godzilla and King Kong, and has created its own mythology and recurring characters, and long-form plot developments. Different directors have come in and put their stamp on these characters, and audiences have embraced this franchise.
