Godzilla Minus One - Patreon Version

djKENTO

in the recent Godzilla American franchise aka The Monsterverse where he teams up with King Kong… they call them titans. They are ancient animals that are essentially like gods.

JakeyShakeyBakeyBoy

Dude what a debut for Simone to experience a Godzilla movie with this being one of the best out there by far. Considering it was made for under $20 million and has a great emotional story behind the devastation, it’s incredibly impressive. The visual effects crew deserve all the praises

Jay Davis

So... you're suggesting his movie is YET another Steam Early Access scam??? unWATCHable!!!

Marko T.

Watch King Kong (2005) before starting the Monsterverse. It has good movies but Kong: Skull Island (2017) shouldn't be your first Kong movie.

Young Blood Priest

For more Godzilla I hope you guys can put Monarch on the docket for your next series. 10 episodes so it’s short.

Magnificent Gojira

Effects indeed are great but the whole concept is just revisionist bunch of crap. This director already filmed biopic of kamikaze pilot during WW2 which sprung the reaction from Hayao Miyazaki calling it 'pack of lies'. Okay, Japanese cinema has never really tried to reflect the fact they were agressors killing basically millions of civil people on occupied territories, but this Godzilla seems even wronger than usual. Imagine German film right now set in 1947. Legendary giant worm with some unpronounceable name wrecks havoc in the country. Occupational forces washes their hands so it's up to German Wermacht engineers led by valiant former Gestapo officers to deal with this monster.

Odd Thomas

I agree you should watch Peter Jackson's 2005 Kong next. Godzilla 2014 is pretty good too. Speaking of PJ, The Frighteners when?

Poddington

The Mistborn books got me in to audiobooks. Most of Brandon Sandersons books hit that book itch for me. I think the Stormlight books are one part amazing and one part frustrating, but overall I've not read/listened to any of the books I haven't liked. Love that Simone is almost rocking that Bonnie Tyler voice and this is a great entry to the Big-G series of films.

Amar

$10M-20M budget for a movie that won an Academy Award for VFX. Put every recent Marvel movie to shame with their $200M budgets and terrible CG. Pound for pound this is one of the best movies made in the 21st century.

Nathan Jasper

The movie was very surprising, I wish every Godzilla movie was like this.

Nathan Jasper
>>141619774

As much as I want to argue because I'm a Marvel fan, I have to agree with you. This was outstanding and by far deserved that academy award. Makes you wonder what marvel's actually doing with that 200 million.

Jay Davis

While this was very good, I still think I prefer the 2014 reboot the most of all the modern ones.

Young Blood Priest

I’m not into monster movies at all but this is my third time watching this movie. The characters and the acting was off the chart.

Mr. Writhms

NO WAY did Simone recognize the Godzilla theme from the hip hop Pharoahe Monch sample "Simon Says"! It's 90s hip hop no less. Much kudos to Simone!

Shane Leslie

Modern Japanese Godzilla hits different than American Godzilla. Not that one is better than the other. If I can put it in the most niche terms possible; American Godzilla is Biker Undertaker, he's badass, he's gonna kick everyone's ass. Japanese Godzilla is Dead Man Undertaker; oh shit, I think someone is going to die.

Brian

I loved Shin Godzilla and Godzilla (1954). But this has set a new gold standard for me. The American Godzilla from 2014 had a really good CGI Godzilla, but the rest of the cast was kind of boring like George said a lot of Godzilla movies had a problem with. If they took the human story out of the American ones it would probably match the quality of Minus One.

Odd Thomas

I totally get why people hate 1998 Godzilla but it's a guilty pleasure for me, mostly for nostalgia reasons. It has Ferris Bueller fighting Godzilla, which is fun in itself.

Darin Foat
>>141617151

I'm not sure where you're located. But I'm in the US, and I watched this on iTunes a couple of weeks ago. So it's definitely available to stream in some places outside of Japan.

Nathan Jasper

I have a theory that this Godzilla, being before the original, is a female and the "thickness" was a very pregnant creature that became a monster because of the atomic blasts. Its rampaging is just a result of a mother's instinct to protect her young. And that's also why the Godzilla franchise is so long-lasting. Lots of Zilla babies.

Poddington

Godzilla has had many restarts and people group them together into series. It is often that Godzilla starts as a force of nature, god of destruction etc. Horrific, scary, haunting. Then with sequels becomes more about the spectacle of monster v monster. When Toho took a "break" and then Gareth Edwards got to direct the new Western Godzilla it focused on the people to tell a story and Godzilla became secondary. They were trying to empose the presence and majesty of Godzilla, because the villains in the movie wasn't Godzilla. Whilst it was cool, everyone wanted more Godzilla. That spawned the Monster-verse that has been some of the coolest Godzilla monster v monster films and also leads to Kong and now it's a joint established bonkers spectacle that even the Shōwa timeline of Godzilla films became that started with the original 1954 Godzilla. The Heisei series started ignoring any sequels in the Shōwa and did Return of Godzilla, which was again about Godzilla as a force of destruction. It then once again becomes Monster v Monster, but tried to be more modern and grounded for it's time (the 80s) you also get the G-Cells creating Biollante, which are also what makes the black mark on Norikos neck. After this we had the Roland Emmerich reboot, which I loved, but can appreciate that it's not the same thing. I know ultimately it wasn't liked by the masses and after Toho rebooted the franchise again they kill the Roland Emmerich version off in a sequel called Final Wars. In terms of watching them though, Shin Godzilla is stand alone, but I would recommend the Monster-Verse starting with the 2014 version, because time doens't age all things the same and whilst I adore the older films for newer audiences they can be harder to get into.

Logan Kerlee

lol, not going to lie - feels like I won an prize or something. Getting two reactions that I'm going to super dig on two days in a row. FeelsGoodMan :)

Tenwyn
>>141619774

Recent Marvel movies are pure trash from both a technical and story telling perspective.

Harry Fieldson

Apparently (could be wrong) the reason Godzilla can 'stand' even in deep water is because he has swim glands like many real sea creatures. He can adjust his buoyancy to get to the surface, then once he's submerged he swims a lot like a crocodile with primarily the tail.

REDR58

Aside from starting the Monsterverse in 2014, the only Godzilla movies I have ever seen before that were the one or two old ones that showed up on Mystery Science Theater 3000 but that is as close as I got to the original Japanese ones. Never saw the 1998 version. Looking forward to this reaction!

sarCC

So happy you reacted to this. The next best Godzilla movie is Shin Godzilla. It's terrific and VERY different from any other piece of Godzilla content. The easiest way for me to describe it is that it's Godzilla meets The Thick Of It. (And if that doesn't make sense, then I guess I should also suggest watching The Thick Of It, which itself is The Wire of British comedy series.)

Chase Schleich
>>141638062

Never watch the 1998 version. Omg that movie is so bad. It's not even Godzilla. It's some big lizard that just happens to also be called Godzilla.

Chase Schleich
>>141628877

I saw Gareth Edward's talking about his 2014 Godzilla. He wanted more Godzilla in the film, but they weren't given the budget for it. That led to a lot of backlash demanding more focus on the giant monsters. King of the Monsters (and every film after that) were the answer to it. They spent the money and gave people the monster battles they wanted. I hope they do those films on the channel, but they should go into 2014 Godzilla prepared to not see much Godzilla.

Stephen Morris

Shin Godzilla is great. Godzilla 2014 is okay, although not enough Godzilla. And Godzilla Mothra King Gidorah monster all out attack is also great.

MikeBdrx

S&G may like this. Look up TAIYAKI on YT and watch Gojira, a 1954 Godzilla remake. All done in Blender but it looks so good. First time I watched it i was fooled into thinking it was stop motion. I should add that it isn't a real remake so no spoilers lol

Chase Lonnergan

The only issue with this movie, is that it kind of ruins a lot of the rest of the franchise. If this is someone's first real exposure to Godzilla, it's difficult to see him as anything other than a terrible force. So when you see something from the Showa or Heisi eras, or even the Legendary Monsterverse franchise, it just doesn't work for you. As for favorites, I prefer the Monsterverse visual design, but my favorite franchise film is Godzilla: Final Wars because it is ri-goddamn-diculous.

Shonnicus

I just started watching so this may change. You had a theory on Godzilla acknowledging the pilot. Naw, Godzilla is just an asshole. I loved this movie kept to Godzilla just being a destructive force.

John

This was a great movie; my previous favorite was Godzilla from 2014 in the Monsterverse. To George's question, I don't know enough about Japanese cinema, but I imagine all countries struggle to reflect on their various atrocities from the perspective of the marginalized in popular culture. It took the US decades to produce something like the movie Rosewood, and I imagine there is still no adequate portrayal of the Trail of Tears from the Native perspective. I would ask what the cinema portrayal in China is of the cultural revolution from those who persecuted as a possible answer. It's a really good question and I think no country does it well enough.

Kyle Liquori

2014 is decent but it's worth it just to get to the later movies. Shin Godzilla is outstanding, a very different movie than Minus One but both amazing Godzilla movies. Godzilla is one of the most adaptable tools/characters in movie history. You can pretty much make any kind of movie and put Godzy in it and it just works. The character itself is most often either a destructive menace, a defender of humans/earth, or a force that brings balance. Be it by leveling a city or protecting it from other Kaiju, Godzilla brings natural balance back to the planet.

Shonnicus
>>141638062

I have watch many of the old ones and my comment comes from they started to mythologize him. Don't want to spoil I guess but he changed from the original. This brought it back. 2014 is good but the ending circles back around to this mythology. Idk why or if I should not give too much away to people.

Shonnicus

I'm sorry Simone and others but I think a greater impact in this movie is if Noriko would have died. Plus how the heck did she survive that blast? Miracles I guess.

Superpotroast
>>141617151

It's rentable and 'buyable' on Itunes and it's also on Netflix..Bluray release in US is probably happening around November (last I heard, anyway)..You could also change your ISP location to Japan and buy it off of Japan-Amazon..I was tempted to doing that, but I want a version that I can read the box cover, even though I will only watch it in the Japanese..

Jeff I.

Similar to when y'all watched' Let The Right One In', it's interesting how the subtitles on the version y'all are watching are more simplified in meaning/tone than the Netflix version I watched. I guess it's subtitles matching the English dub, while the Netflix ones can add a couple of words or change the phrasing without needing to match mouth movement.

Joey Contreras

From japanese movies, I recommend: Shin Godzilla, and then maybe Godzilla 2000. Personally, Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla (2002) and its sequel Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S (2003) are also my favorites. From western movies, I recommend: Godzilla (2014), and then Godzilla: King of the Monsters (great monster action, but kind of boring human story).

CT

The Monsterverse movies are kinda fun, but they won't provide anything worth talking about for a reaction. Unless they get a lot of views, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Jacob King
>>141666409

Godzilla: Final Wars is my personal favourite. I saw it at the Melbourne International Film Festival in a large theatre with hundreds of people in the audience and when Sydney got destroyed we all cheered. That’s also the fight between real Godzilla and American Godzilla.

Mitchell Bowker

I would love to see you react to the original Godzilla (1954), and also Shin Godzilla (2016), those two plus G-1 are the best films in the franchise. If you want some fun Godzilla films, that include some of the other famous Japanese Kaiju, then check out Destroy All Monsters (1968) and Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack (2001).

Joey Contreras
>>141666409

Actually, that movie is "Godzilla: Final Wars" from 2004. In Godzilla 2000, Godzilla's design changes and Orga appears.

Jacob King

I did love this movie. Its mix of CGI and old school models matches the mix of new and old music; it pulls from the history of Godzilla in a story sense and in a filmmaking sense. On Noriko’s survival, it’s thematic in that the movie is about surviving and choosing life over the death drive of the war years but the little zoom in on her neck at the end (tattoos? scars? mutation?) is probably set up for a sequel. If I’m watching a Godzilla movie part of me is always thinking about Mothra and it’s possible Noriko has a connection to the wider mythology. The Gorilla in Gorilla-Whale is because of King Kong the OG kaiju. I’d suggest watching Shin Godzilla because it’s a completely standalone film and very different experience. The Legendary series all suffer the problem of the humans being less interesting than the monsters but the best of them, Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla: King of the Monsters are still pretty good.

JayF

I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Most new movies don't do much for me but this one was moving and entertaining. Probably because it wasn't made in the US.

Sckmnky

I think George is Godzilla Intolerant which explains the verbal diarrhea.

Robinson vs. Parkinson's

Disney / Marvel should be embarrassed by how much these producers got out of their budget.

REDR58

Okay, just finished the movie, very entertaining reaction Simone and George! I liked the movie, but I didn't think it was any better than Godzilla 2014 overall. I just prefer 2014. The acting was quite good, but there is also just a bit too much standing around and talking for me for this kind of movie. A lot of people have been saying how great the visual effects are here but I didn't think they were especially better-looking than anything in the Monsterverse movies. Sure, they got more for their money based on the budget of this movie, but I don't care what movies cost as long as I find them enjoyable. As far as this Godzilla's visual design, I thought he walked kind of oddly, almost like a robotic or wind-up toy as he shuffled along. He was a bit chunky, but that was also a complaint about the Monsterverse Godzilla, particularly in the 2014 movie. Then again, massive animals that walk on land are going to be...necessarily massive. The thing with the "Shinden" fighter plane that was dug out of storage, that was a real aircraft, the Kyushu J7W Shinden. It was designed that way to accommodate a future installation of a turbojet engine used in place of the pusher propeller engine, but that never happened. One of the two prototypes still exist and it's held by the National Air & Space Museum's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center where parts of it are on display. Eventually it will be reassembled. The business with the German writing on the seat is that the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) made limited use of ejection seats during World War 2 in some of their aircraft, so presumably the story here is that the mechanic somehow acquired such a seat for the Shinden. No other major power used them during the war, though the concept has been around since the 1920s. Maybe the Germans transferred some to Japan for testing, they did so with other equipment and aircraft. Definitely check out the Monsterverse starting with Godzilla (2014). I think you might find the depiction of Godzilla interesting in those movies compared to how he acts here.

Allen Pass

Hey George. I agree that the topic of Japan and their interpretation of WW2 is a hotly contentious one. There are a lot of Asian countries that really do not like the fact that the Japanese are not taught about their role in WW2. Most of the world knows what Japan did, but Japan has a tendency to not teach their population about the atrocities that were committed. I also had watched Grave of the Fireflies which actually gives a very similar depiction of WW2 as Godzilla Minus One, meaning their actions abroad are not delved into at all. Going forward, I hope that there can be forgiveness and healing between the affected countries and Japan. It happened a long time ago, but it can be difficult to heal when Japan's own policy is to not acknowledge their actions.

REDR58

Oh and George, the movie "Tora! Tora! Tora!" (1970) isn't about kamikazes, it's about the Japanese attacking Pearl Harbor. Not to spoil a very small part of the movie, but there was an incident in the real attack in which one of the attacking Japanese pilots apparently crashed his aircraft on top of one of the US targets after the plane took damage. A number of other attacking Japanese aircraft were shot down, but the plan was for them all to return to their aircraft carriers after the attacks. The concept of Kamikaze attacks used as a strategy didn't happen until 1944. Perhaps you are confusing "Tora! Tora! Tora!" with another movie? It's well worth a watch in any case as it shows the attack from both the Japanese (the planning and attacks) and US side (the concern they have about a possible attack, and then the attacks), and in fact the movie was directed by American and Japanese directors.

TechPriest
>>141675487

That museum you mention is one of the best ones on the planet. They have Shuttle Discovery, the Enola Gay, an SR-71, and a crazy collection of captured experimental WW2 aircraft just to name a few things over there.

dys

In the United States in history class we did learn about what Japan did in World War 2; Unit 731, Nanking, etc. Much less focus on that FWIW than the Holocaust or Pearl Harbor. George, sounds like both your grandparents and mine experienced Japan attacking their homes in WW2. My grandmother was born and raised in Honolulu, and witnessed the attack on Pearl Harbor as a teenager. I wasn't expecting how personal that still seems to be for you, though. 80 years later, in the US we see Japan as a close ally, there is zero bitterness left about what happened in that war. Is the memory of what the Japanese did to China much more fresh?

akaTheBARON

🖤I see people recommending Peter Jackson's King Kong before starting any of the U.S. Godzilla/King Kong Monsterverse stuff. I don't disagree if that's a route you plan on going. Just know it's not connected to any of those movies so It's not a prequel to Kong Skull Island or anything like that. It stands on it's own, but you'd appreciate King Kong more if you see an adaptation of his original story before seeing the "monsterverse" version because they're not the same thing. They kind of are I guess. Just different adaptations of the same character like with Dracula or something like that.

djKENTO

They explain Godzilla is buoyant during the demonstration. He can kinda just put his tail down and float in place like an iceberg.

Poddington
>>141628877

Yep 100% Its actually cool that the style and thematic choices in Godzilla 2014 are similar to The Batman. Gareth Edwards is amazing with his use of lighting and shot choices. He can do a lot with very little, it's just with Godzilla we want a lot of a lot :D

djKENTO

I also love that Simone thinks this Godzilla is thicc/chunky. When America did our 2014 Godzilla movie there were memes online from Japanese fans who said our Godzilla had been going to McDonalds too much and was fat… Personally Shin Godzilla is my favorite looking one. He’s distorted and gross and terrifying…

Christopher Carson

I think the Minus One is in reference to the Threat level in Japan.

Joe D. MacGuffinstuff

Oh wow that was good, I kept hearing it was but for some reason I dragged my feet but when Cinebinge watches it, I just have to. Damn Simone, hope you're feeling better by now, and just in case, "sana sana, colita de rana, si no sanas hoy, sanaras mañana", my Mexican grandma used to say this when we were sick, it means heal, heal, little frog's tail, if you don't heal today heal tomorrow. I just always thought that was funny, what's with the frogs tail? Like, is it diminutive, as in you're cute as frog's tail, or are you doing witchcraft grandma? 😆

Adam Wetstein

yes the japanese population still does not recognise their actions in WW2 directly and there is a political party devoted to whitewashing japan action in the war

REDR58
>>141706523

There are also memorials/shrines to war criminals that they can’t seem to get rid of.

REDR58
>>141685282

The 1976 version of “King Kong” directed by John Guillermin and the Peter Jackson version of “King Kong” from 2005 are more like a remake of the 1933 original version directed by Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack, while the 2017 “Kong Skull Island” is more distinct from those other movies.

REDR58

George, you asked about if any Kamizake pilots who managed to survive were looked down upon by Japanese society. There were indeed a few pilots that survived for various reasons and at least one, Kaoru Hasegawa has expressed that at the time he felt it was “dishonorable” for having lived shortly after his capture by the US. His Special Attack (Kamikaze) bomber was shot down by US Navy ship gunners and he was rescued and imprisoned (from an article written in 1995): “Naval History: According to books written about the kamikaze, you and your comrades were afforded a “spiritual guarantee,” if your missions were successful. How did you deal with the fact that you survived? Hasegawa: At that time, I thought it was dishonorable not to have succeeded in attacking the U.S. ships. I should mention, however, that now I do not think that way. When I was captured, I was badly injured and did not see any reason to live. I tried to commit suicide in the battleship New Mexico (BB-40) while being transferred to Guam. I became unconscious, but somehow survived.” https://www.usni.org/magazines/naval-history-magazine/1995/october/success-meant-death-interview-kaoru-hasegawa Another Japanese man, Ensign Kazuo Sakamaki who was in command of one of several small submarines used during the Pearl Harbor attack, was the only member of the Japanese military to be captured at Pearl Harbor (and was also the first Japanese POW taken by the US) “received hate mail from people angry he hadn't committed suicide” after he was returned to Japan following the war: https://www.businessinsider.com/us-captured-first-japanese-prisoner-of-war-pearl-harbor-attack-2020-12 In the case of “Kazuo Sakamaki” and his fellow submariners, it was thought they would be performing a one-way mission during the Pearl Harbor attacks (unlike the attacking naval aircraft) and were expected to scuttle their submarines and kill themselves to avoid capture.

akaTheBARON
>>141685282

🖤Yeah, definitely true. There's pretty much 3 versions of Kong now. The Kong from the U.S. lore (so those 3 Kong movies you mentioned), the OG Toho Kong, and this monsterverse Kong. The PJ version by far isn't the original Kong movie, but it hits a lot of the bullet points of the OG story. Tons of filler added because the movie is so long LOL, but visually more similar to the new version in the monsterverse. Personally I don't think any of the 3 Kong movies outside the monsterverse are must watches, but not a bad idea either if they wanted to do a little extra before diving into those. With anything Kong and Godzilla they have tons to watch so just depends on how deep they want to go LOL

mky

I had an uncle in Japan who was trained as a Kamikaze pilot, was all set to go, but the war ended before his mission. For a long time he regretted not getting the chance to give his life for his Emperor, but as he (and a lot of Japanese people of that generation) got older, they eventually felt like they had been brainwashed, and were grateful that they survived to have families and lead peaceful lives.

Skyruff

Perfect movie to be honored with a shout out!!

Skyruff

Big G has had so many different takes on what and how the creature works. I have seen almost all Big G movies and for my money this is the greatest overall movie. Of the remainder of the Big G franchise, I recommend the monsterverse movies starting in 2014 with Big G for the style and mythos they pull together. The series has a flaw starting half way through the first movie and is a through line from there. George called it, the plotlines for the people are week. But the monsters are thinking beings and their plotlines and sometimes acting (cough) Kyle Chandler (cough) are better.

Jared Winn

The two sides of the atom bomb are interesting to me. In America, when someone comes in contact with nuclear waste they become superheroes. In Japan it creates monsters to destroy the nation.

Logan Kerlee

Roland Emmerich‘s Godzilla is worth a watch IMO although it‘s poorly rated on imdb

George ain't totally chill with Japan in the 40's. For obvious reasons

You guys should definitely watch more Godzilla movies! I have friends who's first Godzilla movie was Minus one to and I'll give you the same recommendations I give them. For Godzilla movies, before jumping into the newer American ones, I would recommend starting out with the Heisei era of Godzilla movies. There are only 7 of them (8 if you count the original 1954 one which they use as a jumping off point) and they are all share continuity with each other with a solid wrap up in the last movie. The first 15 movies (the Showa era) have some gems in them, but they get more geared towards kids as they go on. With yalls busy schedule you can skip these ones. The Millennium era movies are all basically stand alones. Good movies, but also skippable with a busy schedule. I also really enjoyed the animated Netflix Godzilla movies. There are 3 of them (Planet of the Monsters, City on the edge of Battle, and The Planet Eater). I wouldn't recommend watching those until you get some more classic Godzilla movies under your belt because those movies have, in my opinion, a pretty unique take as far as what Godzilla is and his purpose in this world. I enjoyed them, but I think knowing some Godzilla lore made me enjoy the new takes on him even more.

rick trevino

3rd watch for me with ya'll. love the reaction. i teared up to at the end too. as for the music Simone was talking about, it was used in the Charlies Angels movie when Sam Rockwell does a little dance. maybe thats where you remembered it from. i could be wrong and it was from something else as well.

Don Mayhem

I wanted to wait till you two watched Godzilla Minus One to subscribe. And you two also watched Her recently. Another movie I really like. I'll check that out later. I hope Simone is feeling better. I saw this movie twice in theaters and the surround sound it SO MUCH MORE EPIC feeling in a theater. Godzilla's roar and blast. Headphones can't compare. George should do a reaction with his dad of this movie. WB Godzilla sucks big time lol. I have a picture of Curious George and Barney that I use to describe Godzilla and Kong. The music score definitely set the tone of what is happening the scenes. The part where Koichi seeing the aftermath of Ginza wiped out, it reminded me of the anime that showed the bomb drop in either Nagasaki or Hiroshima, that was too disturbing for me. I couldn't get that anime scene out of my head for a few days. Simone should never see that, but that came to mind when Godzilla wiped out Ginza. Godzilla 2014 ehhhh. Not as good as this one

Gary Fixler

Shikshima went from [flying a] zero, to less than that (minus one) after failing in his mission, to hero!

Gary Fixler

My fear when he fell to pieces was that each piece was going to turn into one, like starfish.

Philipp Roensch

I'm no Godzilla expert by any chance, just watched a couple and still want to see Shin Godzilla. But one very convincing reading I caught from people into it: The atomic bombs upon Japan brought a very sudden and devastating destruction, they happened so fast that no one could get to grasp with it or grief properly. Godzilla is so slow and as such more confronting horror that allows to put questions along the story, usually on the human side. Either way, I really like this one, and connecting the growing guilt with the growing monster was such a satisfying idea.

michael denny

other book series that are just straight awesome are the gentleman's bastards series by Scott lynch, or anything by joe Abercrombie but specifically first law trilogy. first book in each are (The Lies of Locke Lamora), or (the blade itself).

Noel Valdez
>>142034419

Also its sort of wish fulfillment the Godzilla movies. The fact they always kill Godzilla, symbolizes a wish to get pay back or destroy the bombs that destroyed them.
