How about the fact that acclaimed director, Akira Kurosawa, wanted to make a Godzilla movie? However, due the fact that he was absolutely notorious for going over-budget, Toho was absolutely terrified of how much a Godzilla movie he’d make would cost, and chose not to let him.
The fact that I noticed that this guy was about to die laughing at some of the parts during the video is crazy, I could hear him crack a giggle every now and then lol
It's a shame we will probably never see Shin Godzilla continue but if we have to see it die, at least Minus One has everything it needs to carry the Reiwa era to greatness
I... don't agree. Shin Goji was what it was. It was simultaniously the closest to the original & most distant at once. As is, Gojira can show up & present as analogous to whatever calamity one wishes for him to embody. To that end, Shin was excellent. As for the reported 'Cosmic Horror' ever-evolving / world-ending abomniation aspect... nah, non thanks. If nothing else, Minus One's massive success garauntees at least one or more *quality* Godzilla films will follow. In that, I think we can all joyfully agree.
One thing I remembered specifically about shin Godzilla was that after releasing the humanoid tail creatures shin Godzilla was going to evolve into a Godzilla and Destroya hybrid and then after that a weird goddess looking creature. Then there was the deleted scene where a recovery team find chunks of Godzilla’s flesh that were growing teeth and eyes staring down the team.
Respectfully you were wrong on the eras of Godzilla. It breaks down like this. Showa Era: 1954-1975 Heisei Era: 1984-1995 Millennium Era: 1999-2004 Monsterverse/Reiwa: 2014-?? This era of Godzilla is still on going and I think putting them together is the right fit since Hollywood and Toho are both making Godzilla/Giant Monster movies currently. Doing a great job of it I might also add.
@@CluckleberryHomestead who knows, as far as i know the monsterverse movies are still making bank and as long as they make lots of money they will likely keep coming
If you end up deciding to update the iceberg sometime, you should check out the analog horror series called The Man in the Suit. It's about the actor of Gojira getting mutated and merged with the suit, slowly turning into a real Godzilla. It is really interesting and I reccomend checking it out.
Can you just say that the actor inside the suit just became too crazy. He called himself a Goji, he took the costume in his home...he wears the suit almost all the time even if they are not recording. I don't know man...in our country this act is crazy...and those people need help...medical help
You forgot to mention how Nakajima got one of his worst injuries when playing Varan. His stomach was burned so badly while filming that someone else had to take over for any water scenes filmed after that to avoid making the wound worse. I have to say my favorite iceberg is the humanoids on Shins tail. I got to see it in theaters back when it was released, and seeing that was scary as hell because who knows what would've happened had Godzilla had enough time to finish this evolution.
I was not expecting Godzilla! This is making history on this channel! Zilla was my first experience with the franchise as a kid. I actually really enjoyed the film. Was surprised about learn that added detail to the design. I actually watched a couple video by the Game Theorist about the Mecha Godzilla reference recently. One going into deep analysis about possibilities, then a very short one about this. XD
I was the same. I really liked Godzilla 1998. Before that i watched some scenes from Japanese Godzilla movies but i didnt like it at all. Even when i was kid when i saw Japanese Godzilla i just saw a suit and i know there is a man. Godzilla 1998 looked a lot more cinematic. And now i love that Toho removed the dumb childish suit and made great great Godzilla Minus One which 100% CGI and thats why the movie is the best. Monsters need to be CGI...
There was a script called the wife of Godzilla (could be remembering the name wrong) , in it after Godzilla rampaged in og movie, he killed one scientist daughter, and to avenge her, he build Godzilla sized human female robot, to seduce Godzilla. And it freaking worked, so he used that robot to lure goji into a trap then blown him to a bits.
Godzilla is huge part of my childhood and i still watch things about godzilla and if we think it is a 70 year old franchise it is no surprise there is a lot of things that actually dark. Also in this iceberg there is a lot of things even i don't know great job man
11:59 Do you wanna know of what fish Shin Godzilla was based of? Google Frilled Shark and check it out. That's right. Shin Godzilla is basically mutated Frilled Shark. It has red gills just like Shin Godzilla has and basically looks like Shin Godzilla but in a fish form.
Another Fake Godzilla trivia: This form is also featured in the game Godzilla Battle Line, but it can take on different Godzilla forms (the Fake Godzillas I encountered in the game were Heisei, 2000, Final Wars, and MonsterVerse). To see Fake Godzilla in the game, you need to deploy Mechagodzilla (Showa) after putting him in your deck.
i love this, especially when you mentioned DOGZILLA!!!! i grew up with that book and still have it in my room as an adult! i love that the author used his own pets for it, plus changing the atomic breath to stinky dog breath :)
I absolutely love Godzilla have forever and thought I know mostly everything but I really learnt a lot from this and all your other videos and I love all of them keep going strong!
There are a few things though i would add but over all a great iceberg. Always Sunset on Third Street 2, godzilla suits were recycled for power ranger episodes, godzilla hotel, super godzilla nes, godzilla plays basketball, godzilla humidifier
So since i havent seen many other comments. Muscle mothra originated from an artist by the name of Ruubesz-draws. They make comics of a lot of random stuff and for a long time, drew a lot of monsterverse godzilla content. Muscle mothra originated from a meme comparison where the original irl meme was a few guys laughing at a hand next to a bottle only for that hand to grip the bottle and become immensely muscular. Ruubesz made a godzilla style of that meme with goji, rodan and anguirus laughing because mothra's bug legs couldnt pick up a bottle. Only for that bug leg to become an incredibly muscular arm. Since then, it's escalated a lot, more artists got in on the joke and Cougar MacDowall dubbed a lot of those comics, making them more popular. But yeah, Rubbesz mothra started out being scary when mad, to becoming, no contest, the most powerful kaiju in that verse.
I'm not familiar with the Godzilla franchise whatsoever, thanks for covering this, Shadows! Epic video! Loved it! Keep up the great work! Edit: Can you please do a video about the Scorpios Rex killing the Ceratosaurus in Camp Cretaceous season 3?
Is it just me or is it that I knew nearly everything in this video about Godzilla. Yes I’m a die hard fan but only watched the monsterverse. I subbed to you and wikizilla aswell btw
Giant monster/King of monsters beat the crap out of all his opponents never loses is a radioactive giant lizard has games and movies and shows and there’s quite a few of them
Da iawn! My friends have caught me all mega godzilla level excited to be watching the new Godzilla film on the 15th. So they sent me this.. They said.. And I quote "this dudes amazing and he's also Welsh" official legend status granted. Love love love this video came back to it to re-watch it. I'm super excited for the new minus movie! Great video please do more zilla, kong, kajui, but avoid pacific rim 2. 😂😂
Oh yeah I forgot to say.. Having marathoned as much of godzilla as I can.. The human Kung fu mutants and aliens are missing from the weird.. With the monsters and the mutants sharing the same psychic chemicals controlled by the aliens. A whole lot of neo from matrix moments and haggard from street fighter lol.. Fecking bizzare... Love it. Oh and the evil teletubby aliens 😂
I'm not 100% sure about this, so if I'm giving false information here, then I would be pleased to be fixed with this. So, Muscle Mothra. I don't know how or who created this cartoon version of the character, however I can understand it's existent. If I remember correctly, in Japan body builders are one of many popular characters used in jokes and comedy. If you know Cho Aniki, that game is based on body builders & puns. So I can think Muscle Mothra being this jokey gag of the popular character.
Evil haunted Gigan oh hell, no it’s going to use the buzzer in the suit why did they have to put that in there now, it’s going to kill us if you find that suit, it’s just going to slice you in half, if it finds you, maybe a ghost I did it, but it’s just a rumour so it might not be real
