Godzilla vs Voldemort
- Who Would Win?
Yes I have mad Photo Shop skills!!!!! |
Yes I really do answer an age old question today, one that
has gripped the world for many years. Fans of both franchises will sit on the
edge of their seats as I prove once and for all, who would win.
I decided to take each combatant and take into account their
strengths and weaknesses. There will also be no outside assistance for either
Godzilla or Voldemort.
So I said his name
and I haven’t been killed. That’s a good start. Okay Voldemort’s most powerful
weapon would naturally would be magic. Of all the any random spells Voldemort
can cast his most notable one in a battle would be the killing curse. Yes
instant death does appear to be a useful weapon in a one on one fight but this
spell does get stopped by a mothers love so let’s keep looking through Voldemort’s
arsenal. The Conjunctivitis Curse
causes irritation to a targets eyes causing them to swell shut which you would
expect to be a useful skill. There are many spells that can stun or cause some
form of paralysis. Voldemort you would think could use these spells to his
advantage, although his extreme arrogance could lead him to thinking he could
simply over power Godzilla. There’s not much else to say about Voldemort, at
the end of the day he’s a magical man with a stick.
Destroyah, the only Monster to beat Godzilla |
We can look at the
previous times Godzilla has actually died. Godzilla, despite appearing invincible
has died twice. Once was in the original 1954 movie where he died of asphyxiation.
The other time was when he fought a monster called Destroyah. Unfortunately for
Mr. Voldemort neither of these are much use as the battle will not take place
in a zero oxygen environment (and even if it did he would die too) and Voldemort’s
way of fighting is slightly different from how Destroyah fights. Anyone who is
thinking of the 1998 movie can go to the back of the class. The ‘Godzilla’ in
that film was actually discredited by Japan and they named it Zilla since it
was such a disgrace. There was a film in Japan called Godzilla Final Wars where
Godzilla fought Zilla. Godzilla killed Zilla in less than a minute.
Let’s take a look
Godzilla. It’s very easy to just say that Godzilla would just crush himself
under his own weight. This is a ludicrous argument as we are looking at a World
where Godzilla could theoretically exist. Saying Godzilla would just crush
himself is like saying Voldemort would just be arrested because he’s waving
around a stick saying how he’s going to murder everyone. Sorry people, magic doesn’t
exist. This battle takes place in a world where both Godzilla and Voldemort can
exist.
For Godzilla to exist
he would have to have an extremely strong skeleton. He would also need either
an immensely powerful heart or many smaller hearts to pump blood around his enormous
body as well as incredibly strong arteries to withstand the huge amounts of pressure
exhibited.
Try lying down for a
few minutes and then jumping up quickly. You’ll feel a bit faint. This is
because your heart can’t compensate for the brain suddenly being far above the
level of your heart. Godzilla has extremely fast reflexes for an animal of such
size and he can move surprisingly quickly. This would suggest he has multiple
hearts. Some weird dinosaur he must’ve been. It’s impressive he doesn’t faint
every time he lifts or turns his head, never mind getting knocked down and then
getting back up. His arteries must be made of some incredibly resistant
material.
In his battles over
the years he gets knocked down many times but he always gets back up. We’ve
already established that Godzilla has a skeleton strong enough but what about
his internal organs. They would surely shatter if he fell. Apparently not. They
are enforced by some amazingly strong organic material too.
Godzilla sounds more
and more invincible with each point. I was actually worried that Voldemort
would monster this but now all you Harry Potter fans may need to start
worrying. Another issue Godzilla would have is strangely through overheating.
He’s not going to do too well if he overheats before he can even get to Voldy. Godzilla
has a tiny surface area to volume ratio and therefore he should in theory find
it incredibly difficult to lose the heat produced by his organs and muscles.
However I don’t remember the Godzilla film when he overheats. Therefore he must
have some kind of internal mechanism to cool himself down.
The last thing worth
mentioning is his skin. As we all know he can shrug off artillery fire as a
minor annoyance. So his skin is incredibly tough. You’ expect large pieces to
fall off as he walked if it is this tough. His skin must be some kind of thick
organic Kevlar for Godzilla to not only move, but to survive the barrage of
firepower that he faces in every one of his films. So Godzilla has an unnaturally
strong Skeleton, internal organs, Skin/Hide, system of blood vessels and
multiple hearts. I can’t imagine Voldemort can be fancying his chances at this
point.

Maybe the magical
creatures from the Harry Potter world can help us. Dragons have similarities to
Godzilla. Dragons have a magic resistance, as do giants. I found that in the
Harry Potter world, large creatures resist magic. Godzilla is far bigger than
anything I remember from Harry Potter. On top of this, I asked a friend, a big
Harry Potter fan about Voldemort and Godzilla and he said that if Godzilla’s
hide was as thick as a dragons then Voldemort’s curses would be ineffective and
Godzilla’s only weak point would be his eyes. Godzilla would therefore have a
huge advantage. I looked into this further and found out that the killing curse
can be blocked by physical barriers, Godzilla’s hide for example. Things aren’t
looking good for Voldemort as it appears his killing curse, his most powerful
weapon would be ineffective.
One spell that does
work on dragons is the Conjunctivitis Curse. Let’s imagine Godzilla’s magic
resistance doesn’t resist this and Voldemort can somehow get a shot at his
eyes. Godzilla is blinded temporarily … so what? What is Voldemort going to do
now? Godzilla can easily survive falling as we already established with his
tough skeleton and organs and Voldemort still can’t use the killing curse to
any effect. So … what happens now? Godzilla gets over the curse and squashes
Voldemort.
We’ve looked at
Voldemort’s offensive options, let’s look at Godzilla’s. I found Godzilla to
weigh around 60000 tonnes (With a conservative estimate). Stepping on Voldemort
would surely kill him instantly. Okay maybe Voldemort will not go close enough
to be stepped on. I’m pretty sure Godzilla’s atomic fire breath would kill
Voldemort. I’m sure some of you will be screaming the word Horcrux but remember
magical fiend fire can destroy a horcrux. It seems likely that atomic fire
could do the same and even if it can’t, who’s going to resurrect Voldemort and
risk the wrath of Godzilla.
Sorry Harry Potter fans but you’re dark lord is not winning
this fight. The victor here is Godzilla. The Dark Lord is powerful but he was
no match for the King of the Monsters! But is there any way you can feel disappointed.
Who would you want to win? An evil man who wants you all dead you dirty muggles
or a monster with little to no interest in humanity in most his appearances.
Godzilla has even been known to help humanity. Even in his most recent
appearance the world would be overrun with giant parasites without him. I’d
quite happily support Godzilla in this. So in the words of Ken Watanabe: Let them
fight.
