Movies never have giant monsters accurate, but it would be boring if they did. Gravity is still 9.8 m/s². They fall the same speed you do, but have a much higher terminal velocity because of their mass. As a result, they would look like they're walking on the moon and would ignite the air at higher speeds. Also, biological monsters would overheat very fast.

Sure, now you're going to tell me time travel isn't possible either.

That's why they tend to breath fire n stuff.

Old Godzilla movies got it right. He did look like he was walking on the moon. Not bouncing, but he probably had atrophied muscles from being in the water all the time.

Poor guy. Overheated and tired, no wonder he was grumpy!
