As a Godzilla fan I left Shin Godzilla (review) feeling kind of disappointed even though others on staff loved it. Still some Godzilla is better than no Godzilla especially when its Notzilla we’re presented with. Yes, I’m still bitter about the aquatic Polynesian Iguana Chicken, and screw you I won’t get over it!
In any event, Japan, LOVED the return of big G so much it’s be nominated for nearly a dozen Academy Awards or Academy Prizes as they’re known in the far east. Thanks to SciFied for the head’s up!
