After Godzilla flopped – both critically and monetarily – we didn’t try again for a long time! It was horrible! And an absolute insult to the character of Godzilla. They may still cool to watch, and are fun in a dumb “wow this is bad…” way…but they are awful!īy the time 1998 rolled around, America decided to get in on the action and “revive” Godzilla by making our own version for the very first time. It is a well-known fact that all of the old Godzilla/Kaiju movies have horrible effects, badly dubbed dialog and barely any plot. In the process of all of this, the quality of everything related to the Kaiju world plummeted. Immediately becoming a worldwide phenomenon, Godzilla has since spawned 34 sequels, and countless spinoffs and ripoffs of just about every sort of monster one could dream up. In 1954, the original Kaiju was unleashed: Godzilla. (Kaiju is a Japanese word that is loosely translated to “big monster.”) Costumed superheroes have nothing to do with this because this is a revival of the original cinematic universe: the world of Kaiju! There is something special happening in the world of cinema and it is not related to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
