==Summary==
center|330px
The TriStar series is an unofficial term used to identify the series of North American films and television series released from 1998 to 2000 by TriStar Pictures. This series' production technically began in 1992, when Sony acquired the rights to the Godzilla character, and initially began production on a film set for a 1994 release.
Plans for this would end up being reworked into the 1998 film, Godzilla. Following the release of this film, a sequel was released in the form of Godzilla: The Series, an animated series taking place shortly after the events of the movie. Plans for additional films fell through, however, as the film's director and producer dropped the project following budgetary issues in early 1999.
Sony's rights to the franchise reverted to Toho in 2003, effectively ending this series. It would be succeeded by the retaliatory Millennium series, created by Toho from 1999 to 2004, and a new North American series would begin in 2014, with the creation of the MonsterVerse, and release of Godzilla.

==Explanations==
<tabber>
|-|Terminology=
*Kaiju: Kaiju (怪獣 kaijū) is a Japanese word that literally means "strange beast" and is usually translated as "monster" in English. Traditionally, kaiju can refer to any sort of strange creature, but in recent times the word has become associated with a genre of tokusatsu entertainment, specifically Japanese cinema that involves giant monsters. The most powerful kaiju are at times advertently referred to as daikaiju (大怪獣 daikaijū) the prefix dai- emphasizing great power or status and is usually translated as "giant monster."
*Mecha: In science fiction, mecha (メカ) or mechs are giant robots or machines typically depicted as piloted and as humanoid walking vehicles. Mechas are typically depicted as humanoid mobile robots. The term was first used in Japanese (meka) after shortening the English loanword mekanikaru ('mechanical'), but the meaning in Japanese is more inclusive, and "robot" (robotto) or "giant robot" is the narrower term.
*Kaijin: Kaijin (怪人) is a Japanese word that means "mysterious person." In Japanese, kaijin is a relatively broad term that encompasses any fictional human-like character that possesses strange supernatural abilities and is usually used to refer to villains.
*Hiiroo: (ヒイロ) is a person who is admired for great or brave acts or fine qualities. Any individual of colorful appearance and extraordinary prowess.
*Earth Defenders: Earth Defenders tolerate humans but do not make a point to defend them - they see the Aliens as a blight on Earth and destroying them is their primary goal. They protect the world and their home of Monster Island from any foreign threat including humans.
*Divine Monsters: These monsters are/have been worshipped by humans, and are aware of their divine power (figuratively and literally) and exert it, both to reward and punish, some being more benevolent than others. Most of them defend the cosmos itself, and therefore often ally with Earth Defenders.
*Demonic Monsters: A demon is a supernatural evil being, that usually follows the commands of a demonic deity, whose principal motivations can vary, but usually tortured souls and kaiju for eternity in Hell.
*GDF (Global Defense Force): The Global Defense Force has built many mechs to defend mankind from monsters, be they from Earth or Outer Space.
*Aliens: These Alien monsters do the bidding of different alien races. Their primary goal is to conquer Earth by any means. They are willing to destroy both humans and kaiju from the other factions alike to achieve their goals, and with the support of their military, they are prepared to crush any resistance from the planet.
*Lawless Monsters: Due to various reasons, these monsters merely follow their own needs, making no allies and attacking everything that threatens them. Some have a lust for power that comes before all other concerns, all working for their own, sinister agenda: to destroy everything in their path. Some of them are bent on world domination, while others merely destroy what they dislike and if unchecked, could destroy human civilization.
*Independent Forces: These monsters are under mind control to obey the power of crazy scientists or any other races that came from Earth, and independently of the period, who have the intention to take control over the planet. These creatures are, therefore, extremely dangerous.
|-|Story=
*TriStar Continuity: GODZILLA begins with the fishing trawler Kobayashi-Maru being pulled beneath the waves by an unknown force. The French government concludes this to be the work of a huge monster spawned by their nuclear testing in French Polynesia 30 years prior. The creature makes its way across Panama and swims to New York City, where the American military finds itself in an urban conflict theater as it tries to destroy the monster. Dr. Niko Tatopoulos worries that the monster, dubbed Godzilla, has reproduced asexually and that its offspring could overrun the city. Now while the military fights Godzilla in the urban landscape, Nick and the French secret service venture below the city streets to find Godzilla's nest before it's too late. In the series, Godzilla (the baby that survived the destruction of Madison Square Garden and hatched from the egg at the end of the 1998 film--often nicknamed Godzilla Junior or Zilla Junior by fans) battles a large group of giant monsters. The show tracks Godzilla and team H.E.A.T. around the planet battling new mutations and other supernatural beasts. The series not only had Godzilla battle several other kaiju, such as a Giant Bat, but also face a fleet of invaders known as "Leviathan Aliens" in a tribute to Destroy All Monsters, and an eccentric billionaire rival of Nick's. In an ironic twist from the original Godzilla TV adaptation, in the 1998 film, Godzilla has a flammable power breath similar to fire, while in the series, his son breathes a green atomic breath.
