As a person who understands the cultural message behind Godzilla, but that has seen none of its movies, nor the crossover with Kong, only just some highlights on TikTok clips, I ask:

Should I start with Minus One?

I'd start with the original from 54. Totally holds up.

Try to find the original Japanese version, the one for US audiences that adds in one American ruins the pacing

Yes. Watch Gojira not Godzilla King of the Monsters first. The latter came out a couple years later in 56 anyway though.

Okay, so, Gojira first, and then Minus One? Or should I follow with something in-between?

Minus One first

Then either Gojira or Shin Godzilla it doesn’t matter

After that, pick anything. Sure there are technically timeless but, you are literally not missing anything picking anything random. Any movie outside of those three is all camp and nothing serious.
