The weirdest thing about this movie is how Godzilla keeps showing up like a ninja without making a sound. Also Godzilla was way more powerful than the Muto's but no matter how powerful you are it's still a difficult situation when you get jumped. By the way Godzilla couldn't use his full power either because the electromagnetic pulse from the Mutos was disrupting his Atomic breath. So it was very slow to charge and it was less powerful than it should have been.
@@tmac731 yeah it's not really explained in the movies so I figured I'd clear that up. It's also more fire like than beam like as well. That's another indication that it's weaker
Godzilla's flamethrower is called the "Atomic Breath", it's his signature move throughout all of his renditions. Godzilla also grows throughout the movies and gains more energy to be able to frequently use his Atomic Breath.
42:58 nope not a flamethrower. The Atomic Breath, Godzilla's most iconic power. Basically the power of Nuclear energy in the form of a Beam of destructive atomic power. Godzilla has always had the Atomic in most of the 37 films he's been in.
Fun fact for you, Don: In between this film and the next one, "Godzilla: King of the Monsters", there's a graphic novel called Godzilla: Aftershock. In it, he faces off against the Muto Prime, the largest and strongest member of the Muto species. Godzilla takes heavy damage in that battle, as the Muto Prime breaks his dorsal fins, but he still manages to kill the beast by using a raw radiation blast from his broken fins. As a result, his fins grow back in a different shape by the next film. The graphic novel also explains the skeleton found at the beginning of the film belonged to another member of Godzilla's species named Dagon, and that Muto Prime planted its eggs (the two Mutos in this film) within Dagon, slowly killing him.
@@johnhalo-ug4go Dagon is a Gojira species who was significantly younger than the g-man, so yes he was much weaker, and made easy pickings for the Muto prime.
@@nuclearbeast4926muto prime could beat Godzilla due to being specifically evolved to counter him at everything and using hit and run tactics. Hes still weaker than godzilla tho
I’ve literally been watching Godzilla movies since I was four years old, I even had a Godzilla-themed birthday party back then! Being able to watch these new movies and appreciate how well-made they are is amazing for a lifelong fan like myself. Godzilla is simply one of the coolest monsters in all of fiction in my opinion, and some of his fights throughout the decades are absolute classics. I even played the Wii game Godzilla: Unleashed and I still get on it every so often because it’s just nostalgic and fun. You gotta watch the next two.
Yeah, I'm hoping that that they do a movie with Biollante, as that could be crazy (it's the evil rosebush that is functionally invincible). Also, the novelization of the King of Monsters movie has a really cool titan called Na Kika that could be an interesting add. It's a giant telepathic octopus-like titan that is allied with Godzilla. It gets attacked by poachers in a submarine with explosives and poison, and it calls for Godzilla to help--Godzilla shows up and destroys the poachers. It's hyper-intelligent, has active camo, super-regeneration, and can consume other titans' energy by touching them. Also, it throws boats like spears and has used dead titan shells as a shield.
20:10 and 42:33 His reaction to the Atomic Breath and roar is how everyone felt. 32:30 Wonderful shot with the parachute but no jet only to have it crash behind her. 33:03 Nice shot with the MUTO but why would they be on the boat with the nuke? 30:36 I liked when the kids stopped screaming. I'm sure they had plenty of time to get those people off the bridge. This movie gave me chills when first saw it and made me a Godzilla fan. I was surprised when Kong Skull Island came out and continued the franchise and the later movies did a good job at expanding the world and monsters.
I believe having the bomb on the boat was safer becuz when the Muto was in range, power would have been immediately been out and if you notice, jets and and airplanes have lost control and crashed in this movie.
@@clplayzxz10101I think minus one is the true successor to the original 1954 where Godzilla served as a symbol. But the legendary movies is a true successor to Godzilla as a character to the old movies where he played a protector of some sort
In this movie, Godzilla stands at 108 meters tall, or 354 feet, for my fellow Americans. At the time, this was the largest Godzilla had ever been in a feature film. Not to be outdone, Toho would release Shin Godzilla 2 years later in 2016, with the title character measuring in at a dizzying 118.5 meters in height, or 389 feet. Legendary would then give Toho the most petty middle finger they could muster by increasing Godzilla's height for the 2019 follow-up to this film, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, in which everyone's favorite Kaiju stood at 119 meters, or 390 feet tall.
Definitely wouldn't say giving toho a petty middle finger, the licensing of godzillas use to legendary includes the approval of godzillas portrayal through toho. While it obviously isn't a collaboration between the two they have a good relationship because a franchise was planned so toho has been aware of everything and I think it's obvious the direction for Godzilla has shown he's consistently evolving in some way each movie. Especially the recent trailer for Godzilla x Kong with the throwback to millennium Godzilla. There's been quite a few moments paying homage to previous toho movies and the directors themselves have stated this in interviews, most notable in KOTM with the twin sisters reference and the connection to Mothra, but the biggest being getting Ghidorah, rodan and Mothra right, they were heavily focused on that, the director was an absolute nerd of toho films (his words, not mine), so there's absolutely no pettiness or legendary trying to one up toho in any way. These are two different iterations from two entirely different cultures but with due respect from legendary, but of course finding ignorant comments is easy when people know absolutely nothing 🤷♂️
@@MrNate05THANK YOU. I honestly think he was shown to evolve even in this movie with how he was able to use his atomic breath despite the MUTO’s EMP still in effect. Granted, it was weaker and gassed him a lot quicker in this movie but I think that is implied to be one of those adaptational processes of creating whatever molecule whose receptor is disabled by the MUTO’s EMP, like how we can create glucose from glycogen if we’re deprived of glucose. Not sure if it was implied, but I love the zoologically accurate details they imply in this movie.
Fun fact: This movie is the highest grossing Godzilla movie. It made over 500 million USD. I definitely recommend watching the rest of the Monsterverse series
(At 41:10) This was probably the BEST moment in the movie Godzilla 2014. Him using his Atomic Breath as a last resort (especially since the MUTO's EMPs are weakening him)
Guess you didn't know about Godzilla. Interestingly the MUTOs EMP power reduces his effectiveness with the attomic breath (which is why it looks transparent instead of how it looks in later movies). Their species evolved literally to hunt Godzillas and use them as a radiation source for their offspring. So the EMP is the only thing that protects them against his breath weapon which was the most powerful thing of any of the titans. If you think that's cool, you're going to lose your mind when the new TOHO film Godzilla Minus One makes it way to streaming and rentals. They changed the way it works for that movie and it is OFF THE CHART amazing!
Excellent question, well godzilla and other giant monsters feed off radiation ⚛ ☢ and is also why they are so large in the first place, also interesting fact where ever these creatures go the radiation they make causes rapid plant growth basically healing the environment.
It's almost funny seeing how flabbergasted you are for the scale of these monsters compared to Kong Skull Island. King Kong was only 34 metres in height whereas in comparison to Godzilla in this film, he stands *108 metres tall and 177 metres long!* By the way, the blue flame Godzilla creates is called an atomic breath. Which is him gathering the radioactive energy within his body and emitting it from his mouth. Very hot, very destructive.
6:33 and her husband in this played her brother in Avengers Age of Ultron. 24:51 by getting on the train to help it’s getting him closer to his family. The only way he would be able to get back. 31:41 I loved the bus drivers reaction. His main job was the safety of those kids and he didn’t care what was in his way he was going to protect the kids.
If you really wanted to know the MUTO’s and Godzilla both feed on radiation. Nuking them is only just going to make them 10x powerful. It’s like giving them a power up
Cant wait for king of the monsters reactions, I find it hundreds of times more engaging, while the human part was interesting, you get the sense that KOTM is ABOUT godzilla
So, fun fact; Godzilla's name is the Angliciziation of the Japanese word "Gojira" which is a combination of 2 other japanese words; "Gorira" meaning Gorilla and "Kujira" meaning whale. In English, Godzilla would be "Gorilla Whale", which is really REALLY cool.
Godzilla is indeed a he. There's a surprising amount of confusion on that particular fact for whatever reason. The "flame-breath" ability is a classic Godzilla power called the Atomic Breath. He's basically firing pure radioactive energy at his target.
@@VelociraptorsOfSkyrimstill kinda mind-boggling that the misconception is so widespread, considering that version is commonly reviled by the Godzilla community to the point that its' not even officially Godzilla anymore. TOHO literally bought the rights to that version to rename it and then have their Godzilla kill it in Australia in less than a minute.
@@a_fine_edition2746 Agreed. But keep it mind it was _also_ the first time people ever saw a Godzilla (The Japanese films didn't often make it to the US and those that did often were edited to hell and back) so it was people's first impressions of the monster
I mean in the 60's Godzilla had a baby so that is why most say female. Zilla ain't Godzilla but that one and Shin might be the 'he' asexual baby making type. Other than that it's just Godzilla.
Oh crap looking up the retcon and Godzilla had even more kids recently. . . well recently to me in the 90's. A Junior Godzilla. lol Thinking about it more, all the Kong vs Godzilla, Godzilla will win in the end when Kong is the last of their kind.
Would love to see you react to the sequels. Godzilla King of the Monsters was really expansive on the current lore of the Titans and Godzilla vs Kong really showed a lot about their ancient history on Earth. There's a current fourth Godzilla film in the makings for next year called Godzilla X Kong The New Empire
I can’t wait for Godzilla vs Kong 😤 one of my fav movies fr also in the beginning the bombing it shows exactly what they did in the new tv show “Monarch : Legacy of Monsters” only on Apple Tv tho sadly
If you love this movie I would recommend shin Godzilla and the original gojira from 1954 both films are excellent and horrifying with amazing acting and music. The 1954 one reshaped monsters movie was a whole with its deep messaging 10/10 would recommend to anyone.
Made sure to rewatch this one prior to seeing your reaction here. I've always had a fondness for this film, having been a huge Godzilla fan since the 2000s (though my initial introduction was the rather mediocre 1998 Tristar version,) and this was the first time I got to catch him in the cinema. It was an experience I'll never forget. If you haven't already, I highly recommend giving the original King Kong from 1933 and the original Godzilla (or Gojira) from 1954 a watch. They're priceless pieces in the history of film. If you want to get an idea of where it all began. Great reaction as always (started with your video on Peter Jackson's King Kong remake and went from there.)
Don, you're beginning to react to VERY brilliant and incredible movies lately for the past 3 weeks, CANNOT WAIT FOP YOU TO WATCH GODZILLA KING OF THE MONSTERS AND GODZILLA VS KONG!!!!!
In the Original Godzilla (1954) Godzilla was a result of “Fat Man” and “Little boy” (the bombs that hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki.) It was said that Godzilla was a prehistoric creature mutated by the Bomb that were tested that led to Japan getting Nuked. Ofc this film does it a little differently, but overall of the same. Godzilla has a variety of abilities, such as his Radioactive aura. Meaning wherever he goes, he leaves a massive amount of Radiation, leaving the area uninhabitable. He also has his Atomic Breath, concentrated Radiation made into a sort of beam. The reason why Godzilla doesn’t do too much against the MUTO’s is because he’s so much bigger than them that he’s slower. The Male MUTOs is smaller therefore more quick and agile. The Female MUTOs is as Bug as Godzilla, but is more slim.
The factoids that blew my mind when I first learned it is that this version of Godzilla stands 355 feet tall, has a tail measurement of 550 ft 4 in from base to tip, and the volume of his roar is 174 decibels. And the fact that Elizabeth Olsen and Aaron Taylor-Johnson co-starred in this movie as a husband and wife duo with a young son, then in the MCU as twins Wanda and Pietro Maximoff in Avengers: Age Of Ultron is a mindfuck.
I always wondered why the tsunami thing didn’t show up in later movies? Also we gonna ignore the part the female muto just gave birth and Godzilla immediately pulls up for a fight after fighting her man for hours on end, from the afternoon to sundown
Maybe the reason the tsunami didn't appear in future movies was because in that one instance Godzilla was fucking booking it, he was like "oh hell no one of those parasites is still alive" and tried to catch and kill the male before he got to the female.
The creepiest thing about the MUTOs from Godzilla 2014 is that they're not bugs, they have skeletons, and no carapace. Going off their larvae based lifecycle and jelly-like eggs, they're most likely amphibians. Huge, parasitic amphibians. Gives me the creeps, and I don't even know why.
For some reason, I don’t know why when Godzilla was swimming alongside the US battle fleet after the Hawai attack he is 150 m tall but when he arrives in San Francisco, he is 108 m tall 💀
I went to see this on opening night, and when I tell you that there was an audible gasp for the entire audience when we saw that blue glow coming from his tail, I shit you not. We were cheering our hearts out when he let loose the heat ray.
just in case your not fully sure what Godzilla can do yeah the nuke at the very beginning did nothing by the way Godzilla all he got from it was food since he consumes radiation also Godzilla necessarily wasn’t trying to destroy the bridge but was annoyed by the humans because they were hitting his gills (yes he has gills) one more thing Godzilla is not affected by nukes no matter what point plank explosion won’t do anything but get stronger
The breath attack from the Godzilla is called the atomic breath. Pure super heated ionizing radiation wrapped in plasma. Welcome to may childhood man. I grew up with the big G and all of the mosters as a kid in the 1970s.
This movie loves darkness way too much. I know it means they don't have to put as much effort into the effects when you can barely see them, but it also means you can barely see them.
The fact that Elizabeth Olsen & Aaron Taylor Johnson played as a couple in this film and then proceeded to play as twin siblings in the MCU barely 2014, god I love their jobs 😂
2:04 that was a reference form the book with Godzilla past brothers named *dagon*. He was killied by muto prime. That’d *dagons* bones The eggs were in dagons chest and made the mutos that fought Godzilla. 4:42 that was muto primes baby, M.U.T.O (Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organism)
yeah, muto's evolved to counter the godzilla spiecies. The skelleton that they found underground was a godzilla spiecies that was defeated by a muto. (search muto prime) @@CodyHopp
I honestly feel like godzilla was protecting the bridge and grabbed the wire thing as support, then as he kept getting shot just thought "yeah, fuck this"
I love how the one military dude is like "Naw we usin Thermo Nuclear bombs here not yo fire crackers from back then" SON the bomb they first tried to use on Godzilla WAS THE BIGGEST bomb the US ever detonated. Castle Bravo. In real life for us an accident thanks to improper usage of a certain type element. What was supposed to be 9-10 Megatons wound up being FIFTEEN MEGATONS lol.
You watch them in reverse. This Godzilla film came before Kong:Skull Island and actually was made with no thoughts of doing a monster-verse. They wanted to do a Kong movie, but was also inspired by the success of the MCU films. So Kong:Skull Island pulled from the storyline of this Godzilla, because the look was successful. So they had come up with a way to make comparable to Godzilla in size. Which is why in Skull Island they say he's still growing.
3:00 dude Godzilla's a radiovore. That means he literally eats radiation. It's why he always "wakes up" in the 1940's. Because the nuclear bombs start dropping and his "food" becomes plentiful again.
The weirdest thing about this movie is how Godzilla keeps showing up like a ninja without making a sound. Also Godzilla was way more powerful than the Muto's but no matter how powerful you are it's still a difficult situation when you get jumped. By the way Godzilla couldn't use his full power either because the electromagnetic pulse from the Mutos was disrupting his Atomic breath. So it was very slow to charge and it was less powerful than it should have been.
Also Godzilla doesn't take steroids yet
I didn’t know the emp effected his atomic blast. That explained why it’s white here and not blue
@@tmac731 yeah it's not really explained in the movies so I figured I'd clear that up. It's also more fire like than beam like as well. That's another indication that it's weaker
@@clasher138i think that was just how they thought the his atomic breathe should look 😂 then they improved upon it later as well as godzilla’s design

If you love this movie I would recommend shin Godzilla and the original gojira from 1954 both films are excellent and horrifying with amazing acting and music. The 1954 one reshaped monsters movie was a whole with its deep messaging 10/10 would recommend to anyone.
Made sure to rewatch this one prior to seeing your reaction here. I've always had a fondness for this film, having been a huge Godzilla fan since the 2000s (though my initial introduction was the rather mediocre 1998 Tristar version,) and this was the first time I got to catch him in the cinema. It was an experience I'll never forget.
If you haven't already, I highly recommend giving the original King Kong from 1933 and the original Godzilla (or Gojira) from 1954 a watch. They're priceless pieces in the history of film. If you want to get an idea of where it all began.
Great reaction as always (started with your video on Peter Jackson's King Kong remake and went from there.)
Don, you're beginning to react to VERY brilliant and incredible movies lately for the past 3 weeks, CANNOT WAIT FOP YOU TO WATCH GODZILLA KING OF THE MONSTERS AND GODZILLA VS KONG!!!!!
In the Original Godzilla (1954) Godzilla was a result of “Fat Man” and “Little boy” (the bombs that hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki.)
It was said that Godzilla was a prehistoric creature mutated by the Bomb that were tested that led to Japan getting Nuked.
Ofc this film does it a little differently, but overall of the same.
Godzilla has a variety of abilities, such as his Radioactive aura.
Meaning wherever he goes, he leaves a massive amount of Radiation, leaving the area uninhabitable.
He also has his Atomic Breath, concentrated Radiation made into a sort of beam.
The reason why Godzilla doesn’t do too much against the MUTO’s is because he’s so much bigger than them that he’s slower.
The Male MUTOs is smaller therefore more quick and agile.
The Female MUTOs is as Bug as Godzilla, but is more slim.
The factoids that blew my mind when I first learned it is that this version of Godzilla stands 355 feet tall, has a tail measurement of 550 ft 4 in from base to tip, and the volume of his roar is 174 decibels.
And the fact that Elizabeth Olsen and Aaron Taylor-Johnson co-starred in this movie as a husband and wife duo with a young son, then in the MCU as twins Wanda and Pietro Maximoff in Avengers: Age Of Ultron is a mindfuck.
The kid from Kick ass had a glow up LOL
I always wondered why the tsunami thing didn’t show up in later movies? Also we gonna ignore the part the female muto just gave birth and Godzilla immediately pulls up for a fight after fighting her man for hours on end, from the afternoon to sundown
Maybe the reason the tsunami didn't appear in future movies was because in that one instance Godzilla was fucking booking it, he was like "oh hell no one of those parasites is still alive" and tried to catch and kill the male before he got to the female.
The creepiest thing about the MUTOs from Godzilla 2014 is that they're not bugs, they have skeletons, and no carapace. Going off their larvae based lifecycle and jelly-like eggs, they're most likely amphibians.
Huge, parasitic amphibians. Gives me the creeps, and I don't even know why.
Ty so much for reacting in this because I can't afford the real movie ty soooo muchhhhh❤❤❤❤ u deserved a subscribe
I feel like Godzilla is the perfect name for Godzilla
For some reason, I don’t know why when Godzilla was swimming alongside the US battle fleet after the Hawai attack he is 150 m tall but when he arrives in San Francisco, he is 108 m tall 💀
The weirdest thing about the casting in this is the main character and his wife play brother and sister in the MCU. It’s mind boggling.
I went to see this on opening night, and when I tell you that there was an audible gasp for the entire audience when we saw that blue glow coming from his tail, I shit you not. We were cheering our hearts out when he let loose the heat ray.
Godzilla preserves the natural balance on the planet 🌍 the most beloved titan of all , he is very strong and smart ❤❤❤
Huge Godzilla fan, I highly recommend reacting to the original 1954 film, fantastic film and it holds up pretty well after nearly 80 years
just in case your not fully sure what Godzilla can do yeah the nuke at the very beginning did nothing by the way Godzilla all he got from it was food since he consumes radiation also Godzilla necessarily wasn’t trying to destroy the bridge but was annoyed by the humans because they were hitting his gills (yes he has gills) one more thing Godzilla is not affected by nukes no matter what point plank explosion won’t do anything but get stronger
The breath attack from the Godzilla is called the atomic breath. Pure super heated ionizing radiation wrapped in plasma. Welcome to may childhood man. I grew up with the big G and all of the mosters as a kid in the 1970s.
This movie loves darkness way too much. I know it means they don't have to put as much effort into the effects when you can barely see them, but it also means you can barely see them.
That 2014 airport reveal/roar is still the greatest moment in the entire monsterverse and this is my favourite movie in it. I love them all though!
20:37 the way they just turned around like the seagulls and finding Nemo. Mine mine mine mine mine mine, my my mine.
Bro this movie was my life man ngl
Reminder that Godzilla is millions of years old. He's an old man. This fight was the first real fight in ages. It's no wonder he's so exhausted.
0:47
Nope, that’s Operation Crossroads. Just FYI.
You should try watching Godzilla Resurgence. It really captures the terrors of Godzilla when it was first created back in 1954.
Okay after this complete monsterverse and then jurrasic series will be so awsome.
The fact that Elizabeth Olsen & Aaron Taylor Johnson played as a couple in this film and then proceeded to play as twin siblings in the MCU barely 2014, god I love their jobs 😂
39:20 Immediately felt underwhelmed and my hype died the moment he DIDN'T show Godzilla's MOST icon long roar :(
Next is actually Kong: Skull Island 💀 🏝️, Godzilla: King of the Monsters 🦖 🐉, then Godzilla vs Kong 🦖 🦍
14:41 he did not just say “Ariana trench” lmao 😭
I was looking for this comment 😂
Bro his reaction to the atomic breath was hilarious!💀
Just came upon your reaction channel bud. Thoroughly enjoying your reactions. You're very reactive to what you're seeing on screen, which is awesome.
noticed it in the last couple videos but i gotta say, props on the editing getting better
5:58 BROS WILDIN 💀
A buildings collapsing from an earthquake this guy “ayo”
Lesss gooo I've been waiting for this
You're kinda right Don, Muto's used to kill godzilla's and then plant their eggs inside of them, Muto prime and the others used to do this.
Stumbled across this channel, love the reactions.
The “activate windows” really sells me on the immersion😂😂
This was almost a perfect movie! Keep Cranston alive, a two minute fight in Hawaii and up the lighting a bit, and that would have sealed it.
LETSSSS GOOOO IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONEE
1:47 “Lemme Zz” nah men, first video I watch from you, not even 2 minutes and already loving you.
New subscriber.
Big G showing up at the airport is such an epic reveal
2:04 that was a reference form the book with Godzilla past brothers named *dagon*. He was killied by muto prime. That’d *dagons* bones
The eggs were in dagons chest and made the mutos that fought Godzilla.
4:42 that was muto primes baby, M.U.T.O (Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organism)
the muto's emp weakens godzilla's atomic breath so it wasn't at full poower. thats why it looked like a flametrower instead of a laser beam.
Really I never knew that it could affect Godzilla atomic breath
yeah, muto's evolved to counter the godzilla spiecies. The skelleton that they found underground was a godzilla spiecies that was defeated by a muto. (search muto prime) @@CodyHopp
As someone who grew up watching all the Godzilla movies, I was so happy seeing this in theaters
If he liked this movie then he’s going to love Godzilla Minus One
43:00 Godzilla's "Atomic Breath" is his signature weapon going all the way back to 1954.
I honestly feel like godzilla was protecting the bridge and grabbed the wire thing as support, then as he kept getting shot just thought "yeah, fuck this"
I love how the one military dude is like "Naw we usin Thermo Nuclear bombs here not yo fire crackers from back then" SON the bomb they first tried to use on Godzilla WAS THE BIGGEST bomb the US ever detonated. Castle Bravo. In real life for us an accident thanks to improper usage of a certain type element. What was supposed to be 9-10 Megatons wound up being FIFTEEN MEGATONS lol.
Loved the video as always man. You gotta watch Godzilla king of the monsters stat
This movie focuses more on how the peoples point of view of the kaijus, whilst the newer movies focus more on the kaijus themselves
I’m a nerd at Godzilla and I like to see ppl reacting to Godzilla cuz Godzilla is my 2nd fav thing
LET'S GOOO I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
I love Godzilla. Top ten actors fr
Funny how he recognized Wanda. But not Quicksilver. A.k.a. Ford.
You forgot to add "-zilla" everytime you said "Oh my God" 😂
Let's gooooo (Big godzilla fan) this timing is great. I just saw the godzilla minus one movie in Theaters
Yeah! Same imma subscribe to his patreon rn!
Im just realising why monarch the legacy of monsters felt like ive seen bc they tried to reacreate this scene so hard and they succeed so much
You watch them in reverse. This Godzilla film came before Kong:Skull Island and actually was made with no thoughts of doing a monster-verse. They wanted to do a Kong movie, but was also inspired by the success of the MCU films. So Kong:Skull Island pulled from the storyline of this Godzilla, because the look was successful. So they had come up with a way to make comparable to Godzilla in size. Which is why in Skull Island they say he's still growing.
Bro it hurts me so much seeing mutos get killed for trying to live and feed their babies. Also the plot armor on goji in this film was crazy cant lie.
3:00 dude Godzilla's a radiovore. That means he literally eats radiation.
It's why he always "wakes up" in the 1940's. Because the nuclear bombs start dropping and his "food" becomes plentiful again.
That's Wanda...yea and her husband is Quicksilver(Wanda's brother)
really wished they kept this vibe throughout the whole series
Ayo it’s me crazyyyyyy. The Asian kid in the red shirt
Godzilla just took a few bullets for that bridge
