Gojira was first indroduced in the film by the same name. Gojira was a gigantic prehistoric creature that awoke when Hydrogen bomb tests arrose in the Pacific. Gojira was the cause of many ship disappearances and sinkages near Japan. Scientists were dispatched to figure out the mystery. A "storm" hit the night of their stay and

destroyed their helicopter and a house that was near by. The next morning, the team found a gigantic footprint which contained mass amounts of radioactivity and containing a prehistoric insect. Gojira later revealed himself on massive hill, in which he roared to the visitors and natives. The team returned to Japan, and reported to the public what they have found. The Japanese Army prepared to defend Tokyo from the horrid creature, but they were later all trambled upon by the abomination. In the mean time, a man by the name of Dr. Serizawa created the Oxygen Destroyer and figured out that it can destroy Gojira. He burned all the plans of the weapon since he thought it could be more deadly than an Hydrogen bomb. The next day, Tokyo was left a graveyard. Millions of people were dead or injured because of Gojira's wrath. Dr. Serizawa left on a boat to destroy Gojira, mankinds own punishment. He sacrificed himself to destroy Gojira and to save millions. Gojira was reduced to a pile of bones after the detonation of the Oxygen Destroyer. Ending his reign of terror.

in 1977 n Italian film director named Luigi Cozzi wanted to re release the first ever Godzilla films so he when to Toho in Rome but all they had was the american version of the film so he tried to Release it a the Theaters but none wanted to have an old black and white 1950s film so he colorized it and extended its runtime (by adding clips from the beast from 2000,godzilla raids again and the day the world the day the world caught fire and the film was released at the films but afterwards Cozzi gave it back to toho and then it was lost from 1979-2018 (most of the end of the film) go see this film its got subtitles but you got to put them on sorry.

The first Godzilla movie was made in 1954, and the Japanese version was bleak and terrifying, a modern King Kong story without the melodrama. I watched the American edit on TV when I was a kid, with extra scenes tacked on featuring Raymond Burr, and only saw the re-released original version for real a few years ago, in a movie theater. In 1954, you could get away with a guy in a rubber dinosaur suit walking around destroying models of buildings and tanks and train cars, and the level of acting in the first Godzilla movie was the pinnacle of acting in Godzilla movies. From there, Godzilla stopped being a new idea and became a genre, and the franchise slid into genre-movie and sci-fi kid stuff.

Also, Godzilla movies over the years got into the habit of anthropomorphizing Godzilla and making it a hero, complete with some unexplained emotional connection to a cloyingly precocious child running around underfoot. This new Godzilla movie discharges the cute-kid responsibility adeptly with the cutest goddamn baby ever, who hardly talks, and is at the mercy of a wild, murderous, not-at-all-humanized thunder lizard.

Harlequin Sandwiches

Use for each sandwich a layer of white and a layer of brown bread. Butter the bread, and spread with a mixture of chopped nuts and cream cheese, or a layer of tart apple sauce sprinkled with nutmeg or cinnamon, and moistened with whipped cream.

Tutti-Frutti Sandwiches

Butter thin slices of white bread cut in rounds. Fill with lemon jelly that has been filled very full of chopped nuts, dates, chopped figs, sliced bananas, and any other fruit at hand, and made very firm. Turn the jelly out of the mould and slice and place between the slices of bread.

After making, they must be kept in the refrigerator until ready to serve, or the jelly will become so soft as to soak into the bread. They do not, therefore, lend themselves readily to a picnic lunch, but are a novel accessory to the Sunday-evening lunch on a hot day, and the jelly may be prepared the day previous and left on the ice until a short time before the meal..

U.S. Postal Service media mail delivery takes an estimated 4 to 8 business days, which leaves approximately two days of shopping time before it turns into a gamble against the calendar.

I WENT TO see the new Godzilla movie in a theater in the middle of the day on a Tuesday because that\u2019s the cheapest day to go see a movie at this one theater in town, seven bucks! I can go see a movie in the middle of the day on a Tuesday because I don\u2019t have a day job. I think I\u2019m kind of ashamed that I went to see a Godzilla movie in the middle of the day?

This new Godzilla movie, Godzilla Minus One, set in the fresh rubble of post\u2013World War II Japan, is a reinvention of the original story, with the usual stuff that is in Godzilla movies. But it also has a compelling human plot involving people who are trying to deal with a Godzilla shambling around destroying everything, while they are enduring the misery and privation of living in a country ravaged by war, suffering loss, sadness, and the specific guilt that can be felt by people who survive war, and the really specific personal and social shame of surviving pilots of Japan\u2019s famed Special Attack Unit, the kamikaze, who may not have been blindly obedient, in the last moments of the war, to their mission to stay in their planes full of bombs, accurately guiding them to crash into Allied naval vessels.

Plus, there\u2019s a giant dinosaur with glowing blue dorsal fin-spines and it shoots blue atomic fire out of its mouth which causes A-Bomb-looking explosions! There are some top-drawer special effects as Godzilla is ravaging the city, busily eating people and knocking down buildings indiscriminately, but it remains a Godzilla movie, with occasional slightly ridiculous Jaws-style mechanical-monster action, so there\u2019s a very high-level requirement of the suspension of disbelief. Still, it's the best depiction of humans figuring out how to fight a Godzilla, and the best Godzilla movie ever made. OK, maybe the second-best after the original, if you\u2019re one of those \u201CGodfather Part II would not exist if there was never The Godfather so it can\u2019t be better\u201D people.

Godzilla movies always have segments featuring people in between the scenes of Godzilla fucking shit up, and the people parts have never been good, in any production, Japanese or American, and have almost never been well-acted, because of the weak dialogues that typically consist of shouting about ways to destroy Godzilla. A weird exception would be Shin Godzilla from 2016, which featured endless scenes of bureaucrats sitting around tables calmly discussing municipal cooperation and the logistics of how to destroy Godzilla. In Godzilla Minus One, the meetings are basically \u201CHow do we kill this fucking thing,\u201D and then \u201COK, cool, who volunteers to go try and kill this fucking thing,\u201D and then they go and try to kill it, pronto.

What does this thing want? Why is it so fucking angry? Is it mad because it was once a powerful lizard just chillin\u2019 on a remote island in the Pacific, a local legend, keeping to itself, until it got nuked in America\u2019s war effort and transmogrified into a nightmarish gargantua, wading into populated areas and flattening everything? Instead of Godzilla symbolizing the wrath of nature in reaction to the unleashing of the unnatural horror of atomic weaponry, I think maybe the blind rage and unchecked destruction of Godzilla symbolizes America?

\u2605 The rain that had been forecast to ruin the whole day was slow in coming, and a dull and humid morning stretched on out of the uneasy and uncanny warm night. Sparrows gathered in the dense strip of litter and crushed leaves running along beside the parked cars. When the rain did start, it came down as if it could go on forever. The steady drumming of it acquired new waves of heavier pattering, splatting, and gurgling. Wind occasionally boomed. At bedtime, the air was sweltering, but as the night went on, the draft from the window became relaxingly, reassuringly cool.
