He's from Sierra Vista, Az and it seems the director liked him so much he wrote the part for him. A zonie from southern Az made it into a Godzilla film. Kewl.

I’m firmly in the “love it” camp for Final Wars. It’s that perfect mix of over-the-top goofy and awesome, all the cameos are great, it’s got some amazing monster fighting, and is one of the rare times where the scenes with the humans aren’t boring. Toho was being super petty putting Zilla in this just to have Godzilla kill him immediately, and even though I actually like Zilla (it’s a great kaiju design and I love the cartoon followup with Zilla Jr) that scene is memorable as hell. Plus Don Frye looks like a live action Mike Haggar, so that’s a plus. Now I wanna rewatch it for the first time in a few years...
I'm definitely in the "hate it" camp. Nothing about that movie feels like a Godzilla film, the monsters that make up the roster barely appear and are easily defeated, the music is terrible, the characters have no personality or growth, even most of the action is boring. I'd argue it's the worst film in the entire series. Yes, worse than Godzilla's Revenge. Worse than Godzilla vs Megalon. Worse than Godzilla 1998. Worse than the anime trilogy. There is nothing redeemable about Final Wars.
Me too. It's just all fan service monster battles. The only Godzilla movies I can't find something to love in are the ones with Minya. Or Godzilla Jr. Whatever you want to call the little turd nugget. I hate him so very much.
@@KaijuKing42 it's not great but its campy fun. The only Godzillas I take seriously are the very 1st and the 2 recent American ones. The others are just fun ass movies.
Real talk: Minya is in this movie because the Japanese love him. In 2017, Minya was named the fourth most popular non-Godzilla Toho monster by Japanese fans.
I love how the aliens always think attacking earth is a good idea, even though they know about the king of the monsters who might as well sit atop a throne of the skulls of his foes
I love this movie, I’m of the people who agree that most of the time the human drama is the worst part of any Godzilla movie and this one replaced it with a better live action Dragon Ball Z movie than the one we got
The boring human drama stuff was one reason Shin Godzilla gave me such mixed feelings. The other reason is I much prefer "good Godzilla what beats up da bad Kaiju" over "bad Godzilla what beats up da hoomins", but that's neither here nor there. Like, I thought Godzilla itself was well-done in that movie, and was actually made terrifying, with lots of disturbing aspects, such as the way he unhinged his jaw for his Atomic Breath, which came out first as fire before concentrating into a tight beam. That shit was nightmare fuel. So, all the Godzilla stuff was good, but the human parts in Shin, my GOD, just bored me to tears. I would have to say, though, I liked the movie, it was pretty good, even if the human parts did suck.
TheSefirosu200x bro they literally reference in the movie the fact that the humans have to have a meeting every time they want to do anything. And I think Shin was an incredible Godzilla too, such a cool concept and the CGI was really well done!

Don Frye* was a really impressive martial artist, fighting in a time in MMA where the rules seemingly changed every fight, he showed remarkable adaptability.
He's from Seirra Vista, Arizona. The town was known as Fry Town due to one of the founding families named Fry. It had seedy beginnings and such. Maybe he changed it a bit to distance himself from the original Fry town name.
Well, Zilla pretty much deserved it. Only way Toho could make that victory more glorious is if the emailed the clip to Roland Emerich, and sent him several copies of Final Wars just to troll him.
Wrong. Why would Toho buy the rights for a monster they already own? What they did was withdraw the rights for Godzilla from Tristar (so that they can't produce more G movies) and put a monster into Final Wars that is called Zilla. But Zilla is technically not the "Godzilla" from 1998.

Ahhhh I didn't want the video to end, can't wait to see what happens and congratulations on 200 episodes Brandon, you've became one of my favorite RUclipsrs since discovering your channel back in 2017 with TerrorVision and From Beyond. ☺❤
This is the first video of yours I've seen and I'm getting an AVGN/Cinema Snob vibe, even if it was unintentional or just me, I love it and you earned a new sub.
i actually got to meet Don Frye at G-Fest in 2018 and got him to sign my Godzilla Final Wars DVD but to my surprise he didnt just pull out the cover for the movie and sign it but he also signed the disk which was awesome. Since then i decided to pick up the Blu Ray Double Feature of Tokyo SoS and Final wars since i wont be touching the signed copy.
He's got a star shaped birthmark on his neck though, and every time he gets up, some weird Japanese sound effects follow him around, also he does flamboyant poses randomly too. Probably European.
16:26 All the action of this movie and the cool feats of the big G dosen't just make this movie my favorite movies of the Godzilla franchise, but this part made me laugh so hard I love this movie.
He was also handpicked by Hideo Kojima to direct the cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (the GameCube remake of MGS1). He was working on Final Wars and The Twin Snakes at the same time, and he went back and forth between the two projects.
Thanks. @20:20 - Nice Twilight Zone reference! Also, he seems to reference Frost from Blade, calling humans 'cattle' [Frost adds, "These people are our food!"]. tavi.
Kane Kosugi, son of THE 80's Ninja Sho Kosugi, and I were childhood martial arts "friends." I spent a lot of time in Japan, Korea, and the east coast training in karate, Judo, and TKD. i would see him all the time at different MA events doing demonstrations and/or promoting a new movie.
Never heard of your channel before, but nothing could get me to click like a 25 minute review of one of my favorite Godzilla movies, only after I started did I notice the "part 1" which is just icing on the cake. Excited for part 2 and I'll definitely be checking out your other stuff.

Solar system can be used to refer to refer to any star system as a general term.
@@Banchoking Star system would be a better term to use, but then again, it assumes that aliens call their stars "stars", and not something else, like "eternal light" for example. :)
00:46. That ninja axe guy has suspiciously the same eyebrows as you, B? XD XD
Brandon pullin up to parties like "I know a wrestler"
He loves us so much that he skipped like 12 godzilla movies also thank you to the person that made this thumbnail with a lot of monsters
We waited 200 episodes for Brandon to hit us with an epic John Cena meme? Hell yeah! Well worth it!
Congrats on 200 episodes.
Oh hey! Didn't expect to see you here! Sup man!
8:46 This guy sounds like Principal Skinner, or is it just me?
SKINNNNNEEEER
Does he have any steamed hams?
Primus03
If Godzilla drinks Dr Pepper, then he’d use it to wash down steamed hams.
Skinner actually is in the terrible 98 american version.
@@augustwest5356 SEYMOOOOUR!!!!
It's bullshit that part two has been blocked! I really enjoy watching these.
12:37 That place is called Monument Valley, it's on the Arizona and Utah border. A lot of John Wayne movies were filmed there like Stagecoach (1939), Fort Apache (1948), She Wore A Yellow Ribbon (1949), Rio Grande (1950), and The Searchers (1956). And it's also a killer Buckethead song/album.
Than John Cena joke killed me!🤣🤣🤣
You mean John Cena
Yeah, right?
Now that I watched it me to
Ahhhh I didn't want the video to end, can't wait to see what happens and congratulations on 200 episodes Brandon, you've became one of my favorite RUclipsrs since discovering your channel back in 2017 with TerrorVision and From Beyond. ☺❤
I'd recommend watching the movie. It's really good.
7:55 I feel sexy sax man should be playing at this moment! LMAO
fun fact: the actor for Kazama's actor also played the main character in one of the Ultraman series. Unfortunately, said series was Ultraman Powered.
Gigan : I will cut of your head
Kamacuras : Wat
Anguirus : Why am I destroying Shang Hai
Monster X : Any last words
Minilla : Why am I here
The John Cena joke was in a YTP! I was literally thinking of it this whole time and I didn't actually think you'd include it! THANK YOU! :D
This is amazing! I kinda hope you go back and look at the post-1954 Showa films, namely Kong vs Godzilla and Ghidorah: The Three Headed Monster.
This is by far one of my absolute Godzilla movies of all time
This is the first video of yours I've seen and I'm getting an AVGN/Cinema Snob vibe, even if it was unintentional or just me, I love it and you earned a new sub.
i actually got to meet Don Frye at G-Fest in 2018 and got him to sign my Godzilla Final Wars DVD but to my surprise he didnt just pull out the cover for the movie and sign it but he also signed the disk which was awesome. Since then i decided to pick up the Blu Ray Double Feature of Tokyo SoS and Final wars since i wont be touching the signed copy.
Thanks again for this upload! # 200 and going strong!! Congratulations!
Can we just take a moment of silence because some guy’s name is “Jonny Jonny” at 22:48?
@Sean Wilkinson *Round of applause*
Final wars was one of my favourite Godzilla movies. It was just non stop balls to the wall action. Love it just as much as I love 2019 kotm
Same
"If this were real they wouldn't be able to do any of this shit in the first place!" lmao!! Brandon...I love your reviews man!
I only like this movie because I was an extra in it. There I am running away from Zilla in the shot at 11:46.
5:19 He looks more like the result of a passionate night between Wario and Dictator M Bison from Street Fighter.
@22:50 one of the names on the screen in the background is "Jonny Jonny"
The best sniper
He's got a star shaped birthmark on his neck though, and every time he gets up, some weird Japanese sound effects follow him around, also he does flamboyant poses randomly too. Probably European.
No
It’s been 4 months without a Godzilla video,
THANK GOD A NEW ONE CAME OUT
16:26
All the action of this movie and the cool feats of the big G dosen't just make this movie my favorite movies of the Godzilla franchise, but this part made me laugh so hard I love this movie.
13:05 reminds me of qui gon jin
I am always happy when you cover anything Godzilla, but I would love to see you cover King Kong 76 someday.
I've been waiting for this one, can't wait for toho to take it down
Congrats man! Your Channel is very Underatted for good Content!
Hahaha the “to serve man” book joke was gold!
Twilight Zone episode
Most awesome epilogue to any of your reviews. Congratulations on 200 episodes I've enjoyed everyone I've seen.
0:34 the stalker is just becoming gundam ghost at this point :3
Next the commenters are going to say, “Hey Brandon, when’s the next Godzilla movie?”
In those immortal words "MOAR G-ZILLA" !!! ;)
Is that a JoJo reference?
7:50- Ichigo’s voice actor also well known for playing adam the 2nd black ranger. Johnny B!!
Johnny Yong Bosch?!
Cant forget the Sum 41 song "We're All To Blame" mmmm towards end when Godzilla fights zilla undermined song of Sum 41
22:48 - Hey, I wanted to see the story of Jonny Jonny, sniper! :D And yeah, love the redesign of Gigan. Especially later when he gets chainsaw arms!
Wha... why is that guy wearing what looks like an SS uniform, but with pasties?
I have no idea...
Is it bad that as soon as i saw this i was waiting on "oh my god there's a Kenny in this movie!' line? Lol
Kitamura also directed Azumi which is a good movie. Would you review that film? Happy 200th
Yup.
I appreciate that film as having jus the right amount of Japanese "Kool" mixed in with its historical aspects.
Azumi and Azumi 2 were great. The Xillian leader played a vengeful Samurai retainer in both of those films
He was also handpicked by Hideo Kojima to direct the cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (the GameCube remake of MGS1).
He was working on Final Wars and The Twin Snakes at the same time, and he went back and forth between the two projects.
This movie and Versus are so insane because afaik the director made the cutscenes of MGS Twin Snakes.
Thanks. @20:20 - Nice Twilight Zone reference! Also, he seems to reference Frost from Blade, calling humans 'cattle' [Frost adds, "These people are our food!"]. tavi.
1:15 did anyone notice that godzilla is grabing and chocking zilla?
13:39 my opinion I think that manila design is better than the old ugly manila ps don’t judge me
DratiniDragonEmperor2005 DragonX it still doesn’t beat the heisei design. But yes I agree, much better than that shitty showa design
@@Dai9999 Minya isn't in the Heisei series.
@@ConstantineFurman i think they meant Baby Godzilla/Little Godzilla/Godzilla Junior, which is often seen as a preferred alternative.
"Mutant humans were discovered all over the world..." so it's the X-Men.
Matthew Walton
But with the budget of a Walmart brand cereal...
The best comedy movie is Bowfinger.
They even has simillar suit to those from Singer movies...
Not exactly. Or, at all. They all have the same basic skill set. Until they reach kaiser level. Where the powers are...unclear.
@@claudeprince6724 It was a joke, dude.
Kane Kosugi, son of THE 80's Ninja Sho Kosugi, and I were childhood martial arts "friends." I spent a lot of time in Japan, Korea, and the east coast training in karate, Judo, and TKD. i would see him all the time at different MA events doing demonstrations and/or promoting a new movie.
Never heard of your channel before, but nothing could get me to click like a 25 minute review of one of my favorite Godzilla movies, only after I started did I notice the "part 1" which is just icing on the cake. Excited for part 2 and I'll definitely be checking out your other stuff.
21:13 Rider kick!
Let the whole damn universe know.....
Brandon has uploaded a new Godzilla review
Dude, you cut the homeless guy's reaction to Rodan.
I was sad about yhat
Shuttup
@@cringelul you mad or something
@@gabara. no one likes you BC you bully godzillas kid
Brandon, thanks for mentioning Versus. Never heard of it before and just now finished watching it. Bonkers is right, I loved it.
...THANK YOU! I requested this in one of your Godzilla videos since it was the first Godzilla movie i ever saw. Thanks again!
