I am becoming death, the destroyer of the world

Watching the movie "Godzilla" (1954) today, I am ashamed to say that this is the first time I have watched this masterpiece in its entirety. I want to use immortality to describe it, not only because it has an immeasurable impact on future generations, but also because it is a cigarette brand of an era. Those inadvertent lines are very painful: "I don’t have a friend who is a scientist in Germany. ", "We are going to Dad's world", which is a hundred times more shocking than the sensational drama created by the latecomers, and the audience can get a glimpse of the spirit of the Showa era. Although this Godzilla appeared in a leather case, its excellent model making and photographic skills gave it a sense of "natural disaster". This is the embodiment of nuclear fear, just like Oppenheimer’s first atomic bomb test. "Bhagavad Gita" chanted at the scene: I am becoming death, the destroyer of the world. The younger generations are happily following the predecessor’s setting and dreaming of Secondary Two. The big screen shows the scene of big monsters fighting each other over and over again. The anti-war and compassion contained in this story have long since disappeared. It seems that the 16-year-old ruffian The filmed "True Godzilla" is quite a successor. A truly good movie has a very saturated amount of information, and it is self-evident, which makes people reluctant to fast forward. I don't understand what the contemporary filmmakers who play with the concept and set the last thing to make are ineffective.

    Some scenes were shot on a scaled down model at first sight, but the model was out of tune. The group performance is really amazing. If you think about it with your knees, there is no Godzilla entity, and you can still scream and scream in horror. The paramecium fossils were brought to the shore by Godzilla from the bottom of the sea, how can they be picked up by hand, aren't they still measuring radioactivity? Not even a glove. From this film, it can be seen that people's cognition of nuclear disaster is from shallow to deep. In recent years, Godzilla movies have been fully armed for exploration, and this state of streaking no longer exists. On the importance of doing a full set of dramas! Godzilla slept soundly on the bottom of the sea, and the tsunami brought him ashore, and he rolled over in swimming and overturned the boat. Hmm, what a troublemaker.

Godzilla quotes

  • Chief of Emergency Headquarters: This is quite a problem, professor. If this keeps up, we'll have to suspend the international shipping routes. Have you found a way? Is there something we can do to defeat it?

    Kyohei Yamane-hakase: So, that's it...

    Chairman of Diet Committee: Professor Yamane, let's be honest. If there's a way to defeat Godzilla, we need to know.

    Kyohei Yamane-hakase: It's impossible! Godzilla absorbed massive amounts of atomic radiation and yet it still survived! What do you think could kill it? Instead, we should focus on why it is still alive. That should be our top priority!

  • News Reporter: O peace, O light, hasten back to us-- that's the prayer of peace being offered up nationwide today. We're broadcasting one such scene from Tokyo. Listen to these young girls as they sing from their hearts.
