	Godzilla (1998 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bits and pieces of different body parts of Godzilla were shown on TV commercials and posters, but never the entire body; this was to add a bit of mystery as to the design of the creature, ideally prompting people to see the film because that was the only way to see the whole creature.
		The American version of Godzilla is shown in a 2006 Doritos commercial, which parodies the bait scene, replacing the tons of fish with a Doritos trailer.
		In the film Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah; Giant Monsters All Out Attack, it is mentioned that a creature had attacked New York City and that American officials thought it was Godzilla but the Japanese knew it was not the monster; it is obvious that they are referring to TriStar's remake of Godzilla.

	godzilla - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		Godzilla was killed at the end of this movie by having Tokyo bay deoxygenated by the oxygen destroyer invented by Dr. Serizawa, leaving nothing of him behind but bone.
		In the 1998 movie Godzilla was the lone survivor of an island inhabited by reptiles after an atomic bomb was tested nearby.
		Godzilla was originally an allegory for the effects of the hydrogen bomb, and the unintended consequences that such weapons might have on our world.

	Godzilla Returns - Godzillapedia
		Godzilla went on to attack Japan himself, but was stopped when Emmy, one of the Futurians who had turned on her fellows, resurrected Ghidorah as a cyborg, Mecha-King Ghidorah.
		Godzilla would do battle with the Yamato beasts Baragon, Mothra, and King Ghidorah but ultimately would meet his end by the actions of general Tachibana, who piloted a submersible down Godzilla's throat and out through a wound causing it to grow bigger.
		The Godzilla from Godzilla: Final Wars is the last Godzilla as of 2004; Toho has decided to retire the franchise for a period of 5-10 years to renew interest in the future.

	Godzilla (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Godzilla (Gojira) is a giant, amphibious, dinosaur-like fictional creature first seen in the Japanese-produced 1954 tokusatsu (kaiju specifically) film Gojira produced by Toho Film Company Ltd..
		Despite being the highest grossing film of the year factoring in overseas profits, the film has been widely panned by cult followers of the Godzilla franchise, critics on both sides of the Pacific, and movie-goers in general and has since been dubbed GINO (Godzilla In Name Only).
		Although much of Godzilla's significance as an anti-war symbol has been lost in the transition to pop culture, the nuclear breath remains as a visual vestige of the creature's early Cold War politics.

		Godzilla (1998) co-producer Dean Devlin has denied reports that a Godzilla sequel is already in the works.

		Godzilla (1998) may be nearly a year away from its planned Memorial Day, 1998 release, but a site devoted to the Roland Emmerich - Dean Devlin (Independence Day (1996)) film officially debuted at midnight last night, featuring its first trailer and interviews with the film's cast and filmmakers.

	Japan, Godzilla and the Atomic Bomb
		Although technically inferior compared to the first film, as this time Honda was not in the director’s seat, the second film in the Godzilla series explores the reaction of the Japanese public both during and after the time of war.
		However, unlike the first film, where the bombing of Hiroshima (in fact the destruction of all Japan), is represented by Godzilla’s attack on Tokyo at the end of the film, the bombing of Nagasaki is represented by the battle between Godzilla and Angilas in Osaka, about halfway into the film.
		While most of Godzilla’s installments after the 1950s did become increasingly juvenile and silly, the first two films (in their original Japanese presentations) are serious films which explore the effects on the Japanese psyche of being the only nation to suffer from nuclear bombing.

		The next step is of course to lure Godzilla to a pile of fish that would maybe feed a monster a twelfth his size that sits on a rock all day.
		Godzilla has a meaning in the Japanese films, a horror created by nuclear tests, but also a protector of Japan and loveable yet destructive.
		Godzilla was an unstoppable force, bulky ominous and more meaningful than a random monster attacking a city.

		It was the festival's closing film, coming at the end like the horses in a parade, perhaps for the same reason.
		In "Godzilla," the worm expert is standing in a deep depression, and the camera pulls back to reveal that he is standing in a footprint.
		The primary audience for "Godzilla" is children and teenagers, and the filmmakers have given them a sterile exercise when they hunger for dreams.

	IGN: Godzilla vs. Godzilla in Final Wars!
		Previous announcements confirmed that Godzilla would be facing most of his classic adversaries, including Rodan, Gigan Ebirah, Kumonga, Hedorah, Mothra, King Seesar, Angilas, Kamikiras, Minya, Manda and Monster X (which becomes Kaiser Ghidorah later in the film).
		Godzilla vs. Hedorah director Yoshimitsu Banno let it slip during a dinner to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the release of Godzilla that he was currently working on an IMAX Godzilla film.
		Fans of the Godzilla films can celebrate the 50th birthday of the great, green one and whet their appetite for Final Wars this November in San Francisco, home of the upcoming Godzilla Fest.

		Godzilla's return to the big screen mixes old and new; this monster of a flick infuses '90s special effects into the classic tale of a lizard gone awry.
		Godzilla does not have remarkably svelte, feminine legs and he most certainly does not lay eggs - even the son of Godzilla was adopted.
		Godzilla's latest trick was to foil his pursuers by diving into the water and swimming away.

		Godzilla, to me, is a corrective instrument, restoring order; he is the Fist of God.
		In this new version, "Godzilla" appears to be a mutated Komodo dragon or marine iguana.
		When Godzilla first destroyed Tokyo, there were prayers said, there was much weeping and despair, people were killed, children were left parentless, lives were destroyed.

		At the end of that film, the Big G perished in a nuclear funeral pyre and young Godzilla Junior matured into a fully-grown mutant to carry on the four-decade-old, city-stomping tradition.
		No details about the new project were released but, as in all previous Japanese Godzilla movies, the monster will be brought to life by an stunt actor in a cumbersome costume, trolling through those oft-ridiculed miniature cities and battling model tanks and fighter planes.
		Sony Pictures-TriStar's $120-million Godzilla, made by Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin (the guys behind Independence Day) and released May 20, made about $137 million in the U.S. and about $365 million worldwide--respectable numbers but, considering all the "Size Does Matter" hype that preceded the movie, Godzilla's box-office bite was much less than many had anticipated.

	1998 Cannes Film Festival Diaries (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The American Godzilla makes its debut on the last night of the Cannes Film Festival, which is why I packed my bandana and crawled the Pacific Ocean floor from the confines of Monster Island in search of this new monster.
		I hear this Godzilla has four legs and looks like a giant iguana, and there is considerable doubt about the radiation spitting thing.
		Not that death has ever meant anything in terms of actual dying, especially in the world of Godzilla where resurrection is as regular an activity as eating people whole.

	Godzilla (1998) - Movie Review
		All right, so the lack of obviously dubbed dialogue hurts this film almost as much as the terrible performances by its human cast and the emotional and quasi-romantic subplots, but the film still remains something that has a very limited appeal of enjoyment.
		Since Godzilla has always had a cult following, and since the cult following has always talked about how Godzilla can be viewed as an allegory of post-World-War-II Japanese history, you can view the American Godzilla in the following frame of mind: Godzilla represents the final step of post-war Japan.
		In Godzilla, Japan has exported the terrible product that was the byproduct of hackneyed imagination and America's nuclear waste.

		As a big fan of Godzilla, I was so angry when this film turned out to be an insult to the Japanese films.
		The film also contains gaping plot holes, dreadful dialogue, one-dimesnsional human characters that you don't care for, and the acting (apart from Jean Reno as the stern French spy) is downright bad.

		It's sort of stupid that they called Godzilla a "he" even after they found out it was a "she." Godzilla was pregnant and men don't have babies!
		This is Godzilla in his earliest form, still 50 meters in height.
		In the end we are treated to an amusing fight between Godzilla and Megaguirius, a giant dragonfly-like creature, and her minions.

		The creativity and imagination which combine to create the essential trademark of the Godzilla heritage constitute the prevalent elements in this film and continue to maintain the original attributes of the Godzilla concept.
		As for the story synopsis, the concept has not been altered to a great degree with the exception that the essential destruction and carnage that is a fundamental ingredient in the Godzilla experience was preformed in New York and Tokyo was mercifully spared another spree of unparalleled violence.
		What's missing besides the rippley, zippered suit is the comical way the mouth movements are not in sync with the sound in the original films, and the "fire" Godzilla sprays from his mouth.

	Godzilla (1998) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		In attempting to graft Godzilla into an American idiom (more akin to The Beast From 2000 Fathoms than Godzilla in actual fact), Emmerich and Devlin spend an enormous amount of time aping their idols (throw in James Cameron here, too).
		This may very well be the first movie in history that will look better on video than it ever did on the big screen because there are so many prints struck from the negative that care in striking them is nowhere in evidence.
		If anything is important to the plot, it gets filmed in a medium two shot at the center of the screen.

	DVD Review - Godzilla (1998)
		Nick is teamed with a few misfit Army and science guys, and they trek through the aftermath of Godzilla's run through the countryside, in hopes of catching him before he can do damage to the world.
		Whenever you select an option from the main menu, Godzilla's foot crashes down on what looks like your TV monitor, then wipes away to reveal the new screen.
		Other things of note, are a thorough cast and crew bio list, options for 2.0 or 5.1 sound (in case you have bitchy neighbors as well), and a photo gallery.

	Godzilla (1998) - Channel 4 Film review
		Although it's really a long way off being a quality movie, Godzilla has elements to commend, especially if you're a fan of monsters movies in the first place.
		As for the special effects, sometimes they're ropey, sometimes they're dramatic (one striking scene has helicopters chasing Godzilla down Manhattan's canyon-like streets), but the argument of whether they can match the charm of the Japanese man-in-a-rubber-suit is moot.
		"I like the old martial films for their originality like A Chinese Ghost Story." Recommend a martial arts film to fellow fight fans.
