Wasn't it made by the Madoka guy?

[up][up] If I remember right, the guy who made the trilogy said that Toho was to blame for how it turned out due to different mandates and orders they put him under. People saw this as him trying to cover his ass and shift blame at the time, but he and many of the other people who worked on the trilogy recently released an animated Gamera miniseries that he had more control over and was generally well received.

[up][up] Written by him, but it was directed by a guy who did a lot of Detective Conan movies.

Detective work in Godzilla movies usually boils down to "Big giant monster is gonna show up and I have proof!... Why do you still not believe me!?"

I wonder what the mandates were then.

Granted, said giant monster isn't usually Godzilla himself. People instead discover the various kaiju that Godzilla ends up fighting.

Detective work in Godzilla movies also boils down to "These aliens are really invaders trying to unleash monsters on us! Why won't you believe me?"

We are getting another short film for Godzilla Day, this time Godzilla VS Megalon.

Megalon is definitely up there with Kaiju that deserve more exposure.

New Tv spot for minus one (So far, its only on Twitter/ X])

https://twitter.com/godzilla231103/status/1714868981704839474

The new Godzilla's tail can open up like a hatch for his atomic energy.

He's also 50.1 meters tall, slightly bigger then 1954 or Filius.

Reminds me of Shin Godzilla firing atomic energy beams from the tip of its tail and its fins.

Honestly, if this film does well, I hope Toho has plans for this version of Godzilla. would love to see more of him.

Honestly I'm not terribly fond of Godzilla shooting beams out of every orifice. Eh, maybe it's me.

The Atomic Breath Charge up is spine chilling (Though hopefully your own spine doesn't protrude like Godzilla's does, XD)

[up] I'm getting a bit annoyed that most new Toho Godzilla films simply reuse the original Showa roars rather than coming up with new variations of it.

I'm really digging the whole "spines jut out, then slam downwards right before Godzilla unleashes the Atomic Breath" thing. It's a really cool visual.

Eh, Most new variations are too screechy for a serious film like this one.

Plus, I say don't fix what isn't broken in this case.

So, the Japanese equivalent of Rotten Tomatoes, Filmarks, just gave Godzilla Minus One very high ranking that actually surpasses both the original film and Shin Godzilla film. And I'm hearing lots of acclaim from western reviewers in ANN too.
