Coming May 16, 2014

The truth has been awakened. #Godzilla

An epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure, from Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures, pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence.

Gareth Edwards directs “Godzilla,” which stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson (“Kick-Ass”), Oscar® nominee Ken Watanabe (“The Last Samurai,” “Inception”), Elizabeth Olsen (“Martha Marcy May Marlene”), Oscar® winner Juliette Binoche (“The English Patient,” “Cosmopolis”), and Sally Hawkins (“Blue Jasmine”), with Oscar® nominee David Strathairn (“Good Night, and Good Luck.,” “The Bourne Legacy”) and Bryan Cranston (“Argo,” TV’s “Breaking Bad”).

    I cannot wait for this film to hit theatres. I grew up on the Japanese Godzilla films, and though I now consider them mostly cheesy (though filled with dubbed English words, which more than makes up for their cheesiness), I have long awaited a CGI Godzilla worthy of the original superbeast. The 1999 film was good, but it wasn’t the invincible juggernaut that was the original monster: this one looks more like the original brute.

    I cannot help but draw comparisons between Godzilla, who comes from the sea, and the Biblical leviathan of Job 41, which was likewise presented poetically as invincible and capable of fiery breath. The latter monster, at least in Job 41 (another passage in the Bible, can’t think of it’s location off the bat, describes another multiple headed Leviathan, perhaps a Giant squid) seems to have some resemblance to a Crocodile, and giant crocodile-like monsters have been spotted at sea before (two Uboats in world war 1 were reported to have come across such creatures, if memory serves me right). I wonder if the movie will draw a comparison between them (perhaps quoting a part of Job 41 at the beginning of the film, or maybe mentioning it in the movie and having a character perhaps identify one with the other). That would be fantastic.

    I hope that one of the songs in the film’s soundtrack is “Indestructable” by Disturbed: it fits the unstoppable Godzilla to a tee.

    I have been waiting for this movie for years, but one of my all time faves is the classic, 1948 “Unknown Island”. It was the first color dinosaur movie; the epic battle between the Ceratosaurus and the Giant Sloth is unforgettable. Anyone else have a favorite monster movie?
