So- who would win in a battle between Cthulhu and Godzilla? (I think it’s obvious who would lose. It would be us.)
Personally, I find it hard to envision any scenario in which Godzilla could win- Cthulhu can always regenerate. Then again, if other monsters can join in, Godzilla has teamwork on his side, whereas Cthulhu is a solitary beast.

I’m not all that up on my Cthulhu mythos stuff, but didn’t he (it) have minions he could call up?
If we’re talking one on one, my money’s on Cthulhu.
Here’s a great sig line I saw somewhere:
“Jesus saves, Allah forgives, Cthulhu thinks you’d make a good sandwich.” Feel free to use it.
Let’s see.
One overgrown radioactive lizard against one of the Old Ones.
A creature who can flatten Tokyo against a Unspeakable Entity from dimensions beyond.
No contest. Ol’ squid-head wouldn’t even need to awaken before devouring the “King of Monsters”.
What about Cthulhu vs. an Imperial Star Destroyer?
Recent (Toho) movies & novelizations suggest that Godzilla has vast regenerative abilities.
He is also larger than Cthulhu. Much larger.
The odds are better than they seem.
Also, Cthulhu doesn’t really seem to have much “get up and go” anymore.
He is, after all, a Great Old One. Now, if he were still a Great Middle-Aged One, things would be different… 
Cthulhu can fly, and he knows magic. He would win.
Please forgive my ignorance, but who/what the heck is Cthulhu?

C’mon, you hav to be kidding here!
Cthulhu is one of the Elder Gods. He (and his minions) have been around even before time began! He can think of 50 million ways of killing you that would take 500 million years for you to die and have you writhing in agony in 50 milliseconds. And this is what he does when he’s bored.
The Elder Gods eat planets BEFORE breakfast. They make Adolf Hitler look like Shirley Temple on Prozac in the evil department.
You’re going to pit THAT against some radioactive lizard with a case of halitosis???
