Just a quick fact: this is the first time Godzilla has ever won an Oscar or Academy Award
Yamazaki made history tonight.
Unquestionably. This is spectacular.
Just to clarify, the Oscar is the award itself, the Academy Awards is the event. So it's the same thing.
@@DemolitionDave you right, that’s mb
Never paid much attention to the Oscars tbh
Yes, first time Godzilla was nominated for an Academy Award, and yes, the first Academy Award win for the King of the Monsters. It's about time.
not only that but with 15-16million dollar budget when others had over 100million
It’s about time Godzilla got the respect he deserves. Only took 70 years.
YO FR
c:
Better late than never.
Well to be fair this was the best godzilla movie ever made
@@sweetbabyrodney but never late is better
"After the shock of seeing Star Wars and Close encounters of the third kind, to someone so far away from Hollywood, even the possibility of standing on this stage seemed out of reach. From the moment we were nominated, we prepared like Rocky Balboa. Welcomed by our biggest rivals, which was already a miracle. But, here we stand! To all the artist outside Hollywood, this award is proof that everyone has a chance! On behalf of the cast and crew of Godzilla Minus One, I want to tell our producer Shuji Abe, who we lost too soon, we did it! Thank you!"
This needs to be upvoted to the top of the comments section. Thanks so much!
🔥🔥🔥
@@jacobg8707 this needs to be pinned.
/my_emotions
Thanks for reprinting this. It was hard to hear them when it was being said. Truly heartwarming...
So much respect that they prepared a speech IN ENGLISH and said it.
They deserved that award
Yeah that guy clearly does not speak English, he practiced the speech, but it seems he did not have years of experience speaking English.
@@marhawkman303 Admirable as Yamazaki's speech was...he could've used a translator like Boon Joon-ho had when _Parasite_ won its awards.
@@Wired4Life2 If there was a translator, the problem was that he did not want to use him in the interviews after winning if he translated
@@Wired4Life2 It's not the same. there's a certain level of genuine emotion you can't translate.
@@marhawkman303 True, but that tests the telecast producers and orchestra conductor’s patience.
Yama-san came close to getting played off, whereas with Bong Joon-ho, the crowd protested the orchestra starting to play _Parasite’s_ Best Picture acceptance off.
This film should have been nominated for best picture. Yes, seriously.

Facts
Fr (I'm very biased)
Based
Agreed!! The movie had me choking up many times. It was that powerful.
THE G FANS CAN SLEEP WELL TONIGHT!!!!!!
Godzilla Minus One, Monarch Legacy of Monsters, Godzilla vs Kong 2, Godzilla wins a freaking Academy Award.
These last 4 months have been amazing for G fans
Yep
I’m trying to. I’m so happy. I’ve watched Godzilla movies since I was a little girl. I never thought I’d be vindicated for it.
Godzilla is now the greatest film of all time since the original film Godzilla.
Ah yes I can sleep well
I can only imagine how difficult it was to give a expectance speech while holding back tears and speaking in a language that you are barely familiar with.
Yeah facts
*acceptance. And, yeah. True. I was thinking the same thing. They should have given the speech in Japanese with subtitles. That would have been perfect. I also think they should have given them more time. This was an historic moment plus they were struggling with the language. God bless them all and their Godzilla action figures!
i feel like since the Oscars has a international film category, they need to provide translators for any nominees not fluent in english
@@knjjah2776I am aware during the year parasite was nominated and won a few awards the crew did have a translator with them for their acceptance speech but I dunno if she was part of their crew, or if she worked for the academy.
@@stutzstudiowerks *a historic. And, yeah. True. I was thinking the same thing. They should have given the speech in Japanese with subtitles. That would have been perfect. I also think they should have given them more time. This was a historic moment plus they were struggling with the language. God bless them all and their Godzilla action figures!
Terminator pronouncing "GODZILLA" = Movie Magic
Gazella lmao
They brought GODZILLA action figures up on stage with them??!! YAASSSSSS!!! Nerds of the world stand up and rejoice!!!!
I want those figures lol
I got a kick out of the gold one with the bow tie.
Something thats near impossible to see here but in other interviews you can see Yamazaki is wearing some 🔥 shoes. He has godzilla claws reaching up from the heel
That was so sweet!
Even after having the figures on the table watch the nomination list, they still took the time to bring them over to the stage, and I love it, especially that gold Goji!
I never thought Arnold Schwarzenegger saying Godzilla’s name out loud would bring so much happiness to me (and many others), but here we are!
I never knew my ears needed that 😂
guh zilla
GAHZILAH
Just like hearing Kyla Pratt saying Chibi
I know ❤
This really should've been nominated for best picture and international film too, but I'm still glad Godzilla finally got a long overdue Oscar win. Yamazaki just made history.
I couldn't agree more.
Well deserved
The issue with Best International Film is that it wasn't eligible, the window for that is different for the rest of the categories (it ends in October).
This does, of course, mean that Godzilla Minus One could be nominated for next year's Oscars, if Japan decides to get cheeky about it :D.
A vfx win isn’t anything to write home about lol the golden compass won best vfx and who cares
@@Wraithfighter incorrect. Japan chose to submit another film for their best foreign film.
Omigosh, they even brought along a portrait of their producer (who passed away) to the ceremony. Very thoughtful and sweet.
Michael Keaton's deadpan expression is priceless.
And the fact that even Arnold Schwarzenegger acknowledged Keaton as batman, even though he fought George Clooney's batman as mr.freeze, it speaks a lot of volumes.
That iconic 😂 look of batman!!!
😂I died at that part
Michael Keaton looks absolutely fantastic for his age. Man looks early 50's and he's 72.
@@shavenyak1wait what? LOL I thought he was like 55 at best XD
Still pissed this wasn’t nominated for Foreign Language or Best Film
But this makes up for it
Happy 70th anniversary Gojira!
Definitely shouldn’t have been in the best Film category. It was still great nonetheless though
Hell yeah this movie deserves best film nom
It wasn't nominated for foreign film because Japan has to nominate 1 movie and they nominated a different one. That one isn't on the academy, it was japans decision
It was a packed year.
Or score. Goddamn that slapped.
I love how everyone in the VFX crew was holding Godzilla toys!
I love how they're not just a VFX crew but fans as well
Beautiful moments
Look up their shoes. They had Godzilla themed shoes
It was annoying!
@@legendarygodzillatheking3049 What if Toho keeps making more Godzilla movies? You going to cry and bitch because you have to read subtitles?
@@smithwesson1896This account has been commenting on every G-1 video I have seen, lmao. This guy hates the movie with a passion!
The fact that they had the TERMINATOR say Godzilla's name is incredibly mind blowing!!
Godzilla +1 Oscar!! 🌟
Hail To The King!
😂😂👏👏
Long live the King!
I wouldn't be surprised if the next one is called Godzilla plus one
Transcript (and much love to Yamazaki too!):
“My career began 40 years ago after the shock of it, seeing Star Wars and Close Encounters of [the Third] Kind. To someone so far from Hollywood, the possibility of standing on this stage seemed out of reach. The moment we were nominated we thought that like Rocky Balboa welcomed into the ring being other equals by other biggest rivals which was already a miracle but here we stand. To all the vfx artists outside Hollywood, Hollywood was listening and this, all of this is proof that everyone has a chance. Finally on behalf of the cast and crew of Godzilla minus one I want to thank our producer Shuji Abe who we lost too soon. We did it. Thank You.”
People say Godzilla Minus One should have been nominated for Best Picture.
But remember one thing: Director Yamazaki met Steven Spielberg at a party and was told by Spielberg himself he saw Godzilla Minus One 3 times because of how much he loved it.
3 times!
Winning an Oscar is one thing to be proud of, but for Steven Spielberg to love a film, no other achievement comes close.
This is a major win for Japan and the Godzilla franchise!!!!
If any Godzilla movie deserves it, it’s this one.
No just for Godzilla
@@riffhousestudios96remember its only for visual, but finally a recognition on oscar
The one dude screaming Godzilla 3:20 lmao
Same, man, same.
That was Ke Huy Quan!! lol. The guy is a treasure!
😂😂😂😂
@@RangerMcFriendlyfor reals?!
The hype ❤
In my opinion, this movie was snubbed in at least 5 other categories: Screenplay, International Film, Lead Actor, Director and Best Picture. Instead it was nominated and won in what I’d consider to be the most ironic category: Visual Effects, a franchise known for rubber monster suits. We’ve come so far since my childhood. Well done! Such a great time to be a fan of the King!!
Hardest category for it to win too.
in fact, rubber suits are such a brilliant idea. The director understood that simple stop motion did not look realistic enough and he simply came up with the idea of dressing the actor in a suit and filming it on small city sets
I'll add score too
Never would I have thought of hearing Arnold Schwarzenegger saying "Godzilla" as the winner of Best VFX... The best way of celebrating Big-G's 70th anniversary!!!
Congrats Minus One crew, you earn this!!!!
I dunno whats crazier, the fact Godzilla won or the ones giving them the award being Schwarzenegger and DeVito? Either way, more than deserved!
Weren’t they in a all state commercial recently
@@catierose3647they were in a movie together in the 90’s called Twins, where they’re both twin brothers. Hilarious premise.
@@DM-xl4leand like they said they faced Batman, just not the same one
@@DM-xl4leTwins is actually an 80s movie. They were also in a 90s movie called “Junior”. DeVito voiced an animated cat in “Last Action Hero”. They most recently appeared in a State Farm commercial together.
AAAAAAAAAA IT WON!!!!!
This is the greatest Godzilla moment ever!!!!
Once Gojira won 🏆 👏 I was happy 😊 LONG overdue. Best part of Oscar awards. 70yers. Big fella is a Icon.
The entire Godzilla minus one cast holding Godzilla toys is so wholesome to me.
Watching mr freeze and the penguin try to fight batman while godzilla is getting an oscar is one of the greatest things I have ever seen.
you know... if they made a Batman sequel with them in it... people'd probably watch that.
The fact that it wasn’t nominated for score either is wild to me
It can’t be because the main theme wasn’t original music.
@@misterjohn2, you see I would I agree, but then why did The Dial of Destiny get a nod?
@@misterjohn2you say that when Indiana Jones is up for original Score. Most of Godzilla Minus One’s music is original, or re-orchestrated. Especially the original main theme ‘Divine’ by Naoki Sato
@@misterjohn2Divine from Minus One's soundtrack deserved a nomination alone
@@goldenhawkalumni5341 because John Williams did the music for Raiders and Dial. Naoki Sâto did not do the music for Godzilla (1954).
Yamazaki is having a moment, trying not to cry as he's giving this heartfelt speech and they start playing him off. That made me mad.
I honestly started yelling at my television set I was so furious.
literally honoring/respecting a guy who passed away also literally when that happened...yikes..
“Hey we know you put your heart and soul and sweat into making this film and this is a momentous occasion for you but you gotta speed things up so we can have enough time for all these glamorous actors to make however many acceptance speeches they can make and however comedy sketches we can fit into this already heavy-bloated broadcast, no pressure 😊.” - the show-runners, always and since forever
Yeah that seems like a pretty tone death moment.
U have 120 secs alotted. Make it count.
Shoutout to that one fan who screamed out “Gojira! 3:21
that was ke huy quan lol
@@leovu9564 makes it a thousand times better
@@serbukmomogi omg fr
@@serbukmomogi fr
Not only was it a historic night for Godzilla, but also for old Batman-based grudges! Love it!
Director Takashi Yamazaki holding a golden Godzilla while winning the Oscar for vfx and Godzilla's theme playing while getting their oscar is nothing short of amazing and deserved this win with how much they were able to work with. Passion and hardwork triumphed and this win proved that.
Golden Godzilla with a bow tie* my man was FANCY for his win.
Minus One is terrible however.
@@legendarygodzillatheking3049 Cope and seethe
@legendarygodzillatheking3049 You're just mad that a Godzilla film from the homeland is responsible for earning the franchise its first Oscar.
@@smithwesson1896 Don't waste your time bro. He is a troll. He's on basically any video that praises or supports Minus One. All his arguments are literally just inversions of the praise Minus One gets. Stuff like "The human element was the worst part of Minus One" and "The visual effects were trash."
Godzilla scream 3:20-3:23 👌 perfection.
congratulations 🍾! Well deserved.
Was that Ke Huy Quan😭
@@slackstarfish8133haha yep!!!
@@RangerMcFriendlyomg 😂😂
lmaoooooo
Settle down guys, that was me
I'm almost 60 years old I lived long enough to see this day......way to go godzilla family.
Arnold Schwarzenegger giving an award to a Godzilla film!!!!
My childhood has just flashed before my eyes!!!! My heroes growing up!!!
Stan Winston would be happy!!!!
Heres the thing... Every other movie besides Godzilla had a budget of well over 80 million dollars... Godzilla did what it did with only 15 million dollars... This isn't just well deserved, this is a LESSON
@@user-ok5ez1ls1k the lesson is that toho did what billion doller blockbusters can't,have incredible visual effects for way less
@@user-ok5ez1ls1kA lesson in properly utilizing your budget. If a movie can have better looking effects than other movies that cost 10 times as much to make then those other movies are doing something wrong.
Less than 15 million. It was around 10 million.
That's in Yen, right?
@@TheEman590 Dollars, it's converted
WE WON! WE CAN REST NOW 🎉
Thank god I was getting sleepy
This proves Godzilla media isn't resting anytime soon
Literally I was a nervous wreak all day but now I can sleep peacefully
They cheered the loudest for Godzilla Minus One 🥹
2:40
*GODZILLA MINUS ONE*
By the way, they have a award ceremony in Japan, and Godzilla Minus One got TWELVE awards in japan. *TWELVE!*
Can we acknowledge the great performance from the presenters? Schwarzenegger, DeVito, with an assist from Keaton
That was awesome!!! Despite Batman and Robin being Bad, I did enjoy Schwarzenegger in the role.
Ishirō Honda would be very proud! Got chills hearing Godzilla’s theme as the team accepted their well deserved award! So happy for them!
Exactly,That was awesome
And Eiji Tsuburaya!
@@blumpus8150
And Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball (May he rest in peace). The dude was a huge G-Fan.
Amen brother!! I just know that legend is smiling down at them from heaven 🥹🥹🥹
Don't forget two Godzilla actors, Haruo Nakajima (Godzilla Showa, other monsters and Kenpachiro Satsuma (Hedorah, Gigan & Godzilla 90s).
Congratulations to the people who worked on Minus one and to Godzilla!
1954 is shouting in happiness in monster heaven
I love how all of them are holding godzilla mini figures
Godzilla, King of the Box office 🏆
There's a reason they showed this one so late in the broadcast. They knew Godzilla fans would be tuning in to see this well-deserved win.
Godzilla should have won best picture.
1000% AGREE!
This is the only part of the Oscars I needed to see. Watching this movie in theatres was the best movie theatre experience I've ever had
5:04 FOR SHUJI ABE THE FOUNDER OF THE ROBOT COMMUNICATIONS AND PRODUCER OF GODZILLA MINUS ONE, WHO DIED IN 3 MONTHS AGO.
The godzilla theme playing makes it so much better
I legit cried! Should have been nominated for Best Picture but I'll take it!
1000% it deserved so much more! But it'll always be an Oscar winner :)
We just lived through a moment that will forever be remembered in Godzilla history.
We can officially tell new generations that we were alive to see a Godzilla film get its first Oscar!
Godzilla Minus One is an absolute MUST SEE film. It was one of the best movies I ever seen in my life.
I saw it 4 times in theaters.
@@monk4ever I saw it twice. Looking forward to when it comes out to buy
@@monk4ever Same here...three times in color and once minus color. But minus color was in the theater for only a week, otherwise....
Should’ve had more nominations honestly
It won an award. Move on.
Better than nothing
Agreed. That was one of the best movies I've seen in my lifetime. My brother (barely a Godzilla Fan but saw it with me kind of as a favor) said the same thing
Now I'm kind of sad I didn't watch this live, to hear my childhood hero Arnie present an award and say the name of my other childhood hero.
Same
Danny devito, arnold saying godzilla, minus one winning an award. What a great time to live as an godzilla fan
BEST FILM 2023 & 2024 in Black & White - CONGRATULATIONS
After 70 years, it's finally happened....
Huge congratulations for Takashi & the crew for making not only a great G flim, but just an great film in general.
Long live the Big G❤
I am so proud of the team, not only the King of the Monsters first appearance at the Oscars, but winning against marvel and universal. they absolutely deserve this massive W!
It's never easy to win an Oscar Award against the big two industry like Marvel and Universal big win for Toho for its first ever Oscar Award let's hope that Godzilla X Kong can gets a big win like Minus One did
Quite possibly the only Oscars video I have ever liked and cared for. Well done Godzilla minus one team and Toho!
So happy for them! Imo Godzilla minus one is the best Godzilla movie of all time! And with a roughly 10-15 million dollar budget, it looked better than most Hollywood blockbusters! Excellent work!! Congrats to everyone involved!
Yes!! Godzilla won an Oscar!!! Wooo 🥳 Congratulations Takashi Yamazaki and the Godzilla minus one team!
I got teary eyed 🥹
Congratulations!
Wow a lot of actor and directors stand up for a good standing ovation, they know it was well respected.
WE HAVE MINUS WON ON THIS DAY
This is the first Kaiju film since Peter Jackson’s King kong to win an Oscar.
And this one is so much better
@@skycladobserver9246
Ehh to each their own, both are masterpieces in their own way, and comparing them is like apple to oranges to me honestly
@@bigtimemadness9977 Yeah like the best apple ever to a pretty decent orange that takes a long time to peel.
@@pendafluxMy thoughts exactly. Peter Jackson's King Kong is gorgeous in places and obviously a labor of love and not anything near a bad movie but it's too long and too much. I still prefer the 1933 King Kong and the Monsterverse Kong movies if I'm being honest with myself..
We were so close to seeing another Kong get an Oscar a couple years back. 'Kong: Skull Island' got a Nomination for Best VFX. Forgot who they lost out to though...
It is so satisfying to hear that iconic Godzilla theme performed in honor of its Oscar win. About time!
Proof you don’t need a 200+ million dollar budget to make great visual effects, congrats to the Goji
Facts
2:34
70 years we’ve waited for this day
Godzilla minus one is now the greatest Godzilla movie of all time, well deserved. Masterpiece
For those who had trouble understanding parts:
"My career began 40 years ago after the shock of seeing Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. To someone so far from Hollywood the possibility of standing on this stage seemed out of reach. The moment we were nominated, we thought that, like Rocky Balboa, we were welcomed into the ring being equals by our biggest rivals which was already a miracle. But here we stand. To all the vfx artists outside Hollywood, Hollywood was listening and this, all of this is proof that everyone has a chance. Finally on behalf of the cast and crew of Godzilla Minus One I want to thank our producer Shuji Abe who we lost too soon. We did it. Thank You."
And they played Ifukube's theme when everyone went up on stage!
It's a great time to be a G fan!! The VFX team that worked on this movie was only 35 people. CONGRATULATIONS TOHO!!! "That monster...will never forgive us."
As a long time Godzilla fan this actually made me cry. I’m so happy for them
The best part is that they brought their action figures up on stage.
This needs to send a big message to Hollywood.
This surely did. Many big figures of the Hollywood industry were astonished the Hollywood industry and many visual effects artists. Even Steven Spielberg said it was incredible :)
When they announced Godzilla Minus One Won The Oscar For Best Visual Effects, I had (And still do.) the biggest smile on my face & I was literally Cheering & Applauding while jumping up and down! This is The Most Phenomenal Moment & is a win for Godzilla, Toho & Godzilla Fans!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations Takashi Yamazaki, Kiyoko Shibuya, Masaki Takahashi and Tatsuji Nojima & Congratulations Godzilla!!!!!!!!!! Go Go Godzilla!!!!!!!!!!
The fact that they brought Godzilla toys onstage was the cherry on top
Winning on the same night as Oppenheimer no less lol. Poetic in more ways then one. Congrats to the SFX team for their historic win. Should have gotten a best picture nod as well.
Yes, it is that good here. I loved the mini statues as this was Godzilla's night as well. Not to mention justification for lower budget films which in this arena deserve a long overdue revival.
Congratulations to Takashi Yamazaki and the VFX Team for Godzilla Minus One.
The BIGGEST W of the night. So proud of this team and these people. 100% deserved. Long Live The King
The average budget of the other nominees was **$205 million**. Godzilla Minus One's budget was $12 million. Incredible!
Dude, the Godzilla action figures, I love it so much!!
They completely deserved it. With a limited budget, they made amazing visuals and it just goes to show that having all the money in the world does not always translate to a quality product!
Japan is winining many oscars first the boy and the heron and now this, arigato Japan
Japan knows not to force political mandates in movies.
@@HermaphroGynandrothats not exclusive to Japan, pretty much most films outside the US.
@@HermaphroGynandroNot only is that not true, that's not even true for Godzilla. The original was political as fuck. Shin Godzilla more recently was also politically themed, and is widely considered one of the best in the franchise.
Even Godzilla -1 was blatantly pointed at how the government at the time viewed their own people as disposable, and explicitly framed America as abandoning Japan to the whims of the angry lizard so they don't make Moscow mad.
Just because you can't see it doesn't mean political messaging isn't there.
@@HermaphroGynandroDID BRO JUST SAY GODZILLA MINUS ONE ISNT POLITICAL 😭😭
This is the second time two Japanese productions have won an Oscar! (Last time was from 2008)
Been waiting for this moment since i watched "Destroy All Monsters " as a 7yr old on WPIX 11 NY in 1974. 50yrs later my family buys me G merch for Xmas. Its Godzilla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My best picture for 2023. The greatest Godzilla film ever and one of the best films in history.
They deserve this win!
At long last, Godzilla has graced the American academy awards and won an oscar!🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thank you,god bless you and CONGRATULATIONS Takashi Yamazaki and all the other people who worked on the visual effects for Godzilla Minus One and earning Godzilla and yourselves this astounding honor!
This is the most GOATED Oscar segment ever...
Arnold and Danny DeVito, Mr Freeze and the Penguin calling out Michael Keaton/ Batman... All leading up to Godzilla - 1 winning best VFX ❤❤
My nerdy heart damn near exploded
Keep in mind to Tokusatsu fans. Godzilla Minus One has now become the first tokusatsu project to win Oscar or Academy Award. Hopefully tokusatsu franchises such as Ultraman, Kamen Rider, or maybe Super Sentai can join Hollywood and win Academy Awards. 😎👍
finally after 70 years Godzilla got the Oscar he deserves
And the movie he deserves
“Yeah!… Yeah!… YEEAHH!!… Yeeah!” - Danny DeVito, 3/10/24
danny being so short but bowing is fuckin great. one of the best oscars moments. the minus one team did an outstanding job.
This should be called Godzilla Minus Won 🏆🤩
Making that movie for 15 million dollars is crazy! Well deserved.
Takashi Yamazaki, director of Lupin III: The First & Godzilla Minus One, finally wins an Oscar!
Congrats to him and his whole Visual Effects team for winning!
🤩🇯🇵😎
Sooooo much respect and love for the Godzilla team!! Their first Oscar! Congratulations!!! Godzilla Minus One should have been up for Best Picture.
3:21 How I reacted to this win:
It took 70 years, Godzilla has finally won an Oscar.
Finally😊 LONG LIVE THE KING!
