      His final form actually would have been the eighth form where he would have become Azathoth. Someone said that concept idea for Shin Godzilla actually has been debunked, but I don’t know. Personally, if he can evolve beyond fourth form or fifth form, then it feels like he is too powerful to even be Godzilla. I know Godzilla is an evolved or evolving creature, but this what they did with Godzilla in this movie just feels way too far out of character

    Odds are you've had it all explained by now, on patreon or twitter or w/e. I'll still try to explain the final shot, just in case. All Godzilla movies are built on metaphors, where Godzilla himself is a stand-in for the man made horror of nuclear annihilation. Many of the older films pit him against other metaphoric monsters, such as pollution, cultural decay, runaway technological advancement, and various other things. Every time a lesser monster faces off against Godzilla, the nuclear metaphor kills the shit out of it. Nuclear annihilation is the most dangerous thing humans can potentially do, Godzilla will never lose. That being said since Godzilla is a walking metaphor, he is literally made of the results of nuclear disaster, you see the corpses, that's the final shot. He is made of death.
    On a related note, one of the things that Shin is employing in it's metaphor this time is how bureaucracy is Godzilla's new enemy. A bunch of people making slow decisions, spending civilian lives to prevent public humiliation, and allowing a problem to escalate out of control, has already happened to Japan. Namely the Fukushima nuclear disaster which took place in 2011 which is the basis for this movie.

      I don't mean to discourage speculation, but part of speculation is being open to the fact that a lot of the ideas you'll float will be crap. Learning from that is how you get to the better concepts.

    • @michaelccozens
      @michaelccozens Год назад +1

      That's really not what happened at Fukushima. It was a greater example of hubris and deliberate negligence than Chernobyl (for example, at least people were punished for Chernobyl. Nobody suffered any punishment for Fukushima, nor will they), carried-out 25 years later by supposedly one of the best nuclear industries in the world. And they want more free rein, as apparently the massive backdoor public subsidy of arbitrary legislated liability caps isn't enough. The entire nuke industry is a free-for-all of corruption and the model of "socialized costs, privatized profits", AKA "theft".
      I've heard the "criticism of bureaucracy" theory before, but I don't see that it follows. Yes, there's lot of careful consideration. No, I can't see that a single moment of it is unnecessary. Welcome to democracy. And, frankly, it's hard to see where faster action would have helped, rather than hurt. It's always easy to say "we have to do *something*"; it's harder to realize that, in plenty of situations, doing the wrong thing will only make everything much, much worse (example; uselessly attempting to fight the fires at Chernobyl with water refilled the bubbler tanks and almost caused its own nuclear catastrophe).
      Frankly, what actually impeded progress both at Fukushima and in this film was a *lack* of bureaucracy. An expanded bureaucracy would have created and tested action plans for such potential disasters (not a literal monster attack, but an equivalent natural disaster, like "a tsunami where there's been tsunamis since the beginning of recorded time"), action plans which could have been prepped and executed when needed, instead of everything collapsing because nobody knew what the fuck they were supposed to be doing.
      That's what sets experts apart from amateurs; experts have a protocol for *everything*, and they drill those protocols until they're muscle memory. Or, to put it more simply, amateurs hope, and experts work.

  • @JMotion
    @JMotion Год назад +549

    What I love about this movie's take on Godzilla is that it has so much more to say than just "look how cool the big lizard is".
    It's a very realistic story about a collective people fumbling through bureaucracy and red tape to try and take down an unimaginably large threat that it doesn't remotely begin to understand. Japanese culture often favours the collective people over the individual person, and this movie demonstrates how that societal machine is fundamentally broken, resulting in a lot of unnecessary deaths.
    Something often lost on a first viewing is that Godzilla mutates in order to overcome an obstacle in its way. When gravity has it ploughing through buildings unable to see where it's going, it mutates itself to stand upright on land. When it's body's radiation becomes too hot to survive without water to stay cool, and the endless barrage of missiles continue to damage it's body, it covers itself with scab-like crust that protects it from damage while also dissipating the heat it generates. At one point it's face get's blown up by missiles, so later it creates organic shielding for it's eyes that protect them from the heat of the missiles, also allowing it to use its atomic breath.
    The ending of the movie shows us that the collective human race was capable of successfully stopping Godzilla. And so, as with every other threat, Godzilla begins evolving to protect itself from this threat. And thus, new creatures begin spawning from Godzilla's tail, taking the form of that which it understands to be superior, humans.

    Godzilla himself is a victim of the nuclear energy that transformed him. He is in constant pain, he doesn't know why he even exists, he just wants his pain to stop, but it won't stop because he keeps evolving from whatever is effecting him besides the pain. Godzilla's pain will always remain. The last shot of Godzilla in the movie? Yeah he was in the middle of creating his own mini-Godzilla army. Since he evolves according to the attacks that he receives, if Godzilla is going to be attacked by an army, then he will respond by evolving an army to fight back. The reason Godzilla was able to also fire his atomic breath from his tail was because he had grown a second head on his tail
    That is the theme of Godzilla in this movie. Just as people were victims of his nuclear radiation, he is also a victim of it. The song and music that plays when Godzilla first used his atomic breath? The song is centered around him and how he feels, definitely should look into the translation

    In my opinion,the design of Shin Godzilla is the best out of all Godzilla designs. And I say that as someone who has been a lifelong Godzilla fan since I was a little kid. The skin looking like cooled molten rock interspersed with cancerous red growths, combined with the snaggletooth grin, beady eyes, and clutching hand grip position all just oozes menace. And then you factor in what it’s capable of. From the atomic breath to being a living nuclear reactor and its uncanny ability to evolve and adapt so rapidly.

    Shin Godzilla is definitely one of the best movies out there for TOHO, considering that it takes on the concept of what if Godzilla was real… And they performed beautifully. In real life people would have to go down the chain of command go through red tape political BS, the works. All in all this is literally how most governments work. In the old movies they barely have to go through all this red tape especially in both the TOHO and Monsterverse movies.
    You definitely need to see the older Godzilla movies the ones with and without Godzilla to get the full lore of him including the Hanna-Barbera Godzilla
    If you've seen the behind the scenes of this movie it'll tell you that Godzilla was originally supposed to have more forms but they cut it out because they didn't have the budget nor time to make all of that.
    As I mentioned about the other forms those little humanoid Godzilla's were supposed to be the next one but they were able to stop it before they became an entire army invading Japan or the world with miniature atomic breath's

    @BMAN-eb4jk Год назад +12

    Believe it or not, the only reason shin Godzilla does his atomic breath is because he was attacked with stealth bombers. Throughout the move we seen that he is evolving so that one thing that could kill him before can’t kill him the next time around. For example in his second form, he was having trouble breathing on land and could die from blood loss. So he evolved into something that could take on that and could be on land then he begins overheating and realize he has to get back to the water. When he shows back up in his fourth form, he now can self cool. When he was getting attacked by the bombers, he realized it could have killed him so he evolved the atomic breath as a defense. He was able to use that nuclear energy inside him and fire it all out. That’s how he could fire the photon beans from his back and tail.

  • @SDesWriter

    The ending was going to be his 5th form. He was going to evolve into smaller creatures that was a whole mini Godzilla army. It would have been devastating for humanity but they stopped him in time. There's lots of interesting stuff out there about the plans they had and what they cut. Some was for time or cost and other things were cut because they were just too creepy. They really did a nice job of making this a more terrifying Godzilla. I liked the human drama more than usual as well. I thought it was one of the best giant monster movies I've ever seen.
    And no, he never could shoot a laser, shoot anything out of his spines, or anything out of his tail. That was all just for this movie.

    Funimation's English is actually not bad at all. Also, the music in this movie is just superb, especially the two vocals tracks that play when Godzilla first comes ashore and later during the first atomic breath. If one listens carefully, the lyrics are actually in English and the first song is about perspective of humans fighting a literal god and the second is from Godzilla's perspective and his desperate attempts at surviving. Also if the music during briefings sounds familiar, it's because it originally comes from Neon Genesis Evangellion and the music for it was composed by the same guy.
    10:07 - originally it was supposed to be called "Godzilla: Resurgence" in versions outside of Japan, but they ultimately stayed with "Shin" because it has a few meanings: "New Godzilla", "Pure Godzilla", "True Godzilla", or "God Godzilla".
    16:15 - the reason it keep looking dead forward is because this Godzilla has no freakin' eyelids. It can't even blink.
    26:10 - that final shot shows that Godzilla was in the middle of spawning Humanoid Abomination versions of itself. THAT would be his final form.

    I too love seeing the whole thing from a governmental response perspective. How the hell are you supposed to react as a government to something like this. You have to avoid civilian casualties, you have to try and keep your city intact as much as possible to avoid the insane cost to rebuild and killing your economy... there are a ton of questions. What is it, what is it doing, why, can we lure it away some way safely? Can it be killed, what will that do? Etc. So it's interesting to see that play out from the civil side and even the military side, and scientists constantly trying to piece together ever scrap of new info.
    The blood is because that evolution of Shin Godzilla can't really breath air yet. So as it moves on land and tries to breathe it is dying. Those are gills. It's breathing blood out. Hot, slightly acidic blood (deleted scene showing cars melting into it). Then it goes back to the sea, evolves to be able to breathe air and returns to land. While previous incarnations of Godzilla dealt a lot with the terror we unleashed with nuclear power, this one includes that but also adds the sense of a virus evolving. A version exists, evolves to deal with the environment it found, tries again, gets rebuffed, evolves further to deal specifically with its environment, etc. Repeatedly. That's a viral outbreak in a nutshell. Something Asia has to deal with far more frequently than the rest of the world. Especially in the last decade or two.

    They don't just start blasting away at Godzilla immediately because (besides the huuuuge numbers of civilians that need to be evacuated from the biggest city on Earth) you have to remember that Japan took an oath after WW2 that they will never go to war again. The use of weaponry is HEAVILY restricted even if they have a Self Defence Force.
    But even with that aside, the government being so slow with decisions is realistic because Japanese people in general are so concerned about rules, regulations, and red tapes etc. This aspect was depicted realistically in the movie on purpose because the director Anno Hideaki wanted to mock this ridiculous part of the Japanese government system which caused more people to suffer in the 2011 earthquake and the Fukushima nuclear disaster that followed (which this movie is an allegory of). Yaguchi's team is Anno conveying that he has hope, and that he wants Japanese people to see hope as well that Japan's newer generations would overcome these silly rules and strive for better accomplishment.

But then Warner Bros reached out and spoke about the monster-verse so Toho agreed to drop the 2nd movie and help get the monster-verse going

    Different Godzillas have appeared throughout all these years. Some are heroes who protect the world from other monsters. Others are anti heroes who save the day for their own reasons. There are also Godzillas who are really evil and intentionally attack cities. Even some who start out as villains but over time become heroes. In the case of Shin Godzilla he is a victim of the circumstances, he did not seek to harm anyone and had no idea what the radiation from his body did to people nor did he realize that when passing through the city he destroyed things. besides that his mutation keeps him in constant suffering. He only defended himself against attackers he was not an evil Godzilla just that he was too dangerous for people to continue living.

    @FirithPanda Год назад +8

    Was looking up Godzilla stuff and this got recommended to me. Shin Godzilla is completely different from any Godzilla that has come before it or after in a sense that it rapidly evolved and adapted the same way creatures did from the ocean.
    There were further evolutions in conception beyond form 5 (Humanoid) to the point where Anno planned that it'd essentially become an omnipresent extra-dimensional force as well as a hivemind for the universe itself. That's why his scales outright harden to withstand explosives aside from the bunker buster (you can see his eyelid close on reflex even) and he finds ways to become offensive and defensive at the same time
    'Shin' in this movie's title isn't exactly a thing to worry about. Just means "new".
    As for the dub itself, it's not bad but I would recommend giving it a listen in the original language with the subtitles attached. Not everyone's thing but I feel it's just better acted than a script reading.

    Shin is my favorite Goji movie.

    This movie is such a unique take on the giant.
    Created by humanity's poor nuclear waste management, he does not only act like a walking nuclear disaster he also looks like cancer on steroids!
    The slow and incompetent looking reaktion of the government reminds us of the mishandling of the Fukushima disaster.
    Some of the destruction scenes are almost one to one copies of what happened during that time.
    It's not just a boring Kaiju aktion flick, like the later Toho Goji movies (looking at you, Final Wars...)
    It's a shame, that some of the ideas were rejected by Toho... Would have LOVED to see the beginning of Shin splitting in two, or the detached plates sprouting eyes and teeth... Pure HORROR! Just like any cancher diagnoses would be...
