However, I was working off the image, rather than going any further than that, and Godzilla does inspire a great deal of fear in all of his movies, as do most of the kaiju, with maybe the exception of Mothra and Jet Jaguar, and they're just as fearsome as the big lizard when they're stumbling around Tokyo, knocking buildings over and stepping on cars like a drunkard in an antiques shop.
Technically Godzilla is driven by greed... I mean he eats radiation. His issue is that he keeps running into random encounters with other monsters and armies and for some reason the humans don't like him opening all those tasty canned goods they keep hanging around their cities. the rage is just a side effect of everyone/thing attempting to kill him/fight for dominance.
And now for something completely different...
