Godzilla re- visited theaters on May 16 , in 3 - D and IMAX . The giant monster , in the form of computer-generated visual effects , will be the center of attention in this film .
Analysts will measure how big monster Godzilla this time than in previous films : the largest in history , with a height of approximately 106 meters . Fans want to prove that the mutant lizards 2014 version looks pretty scary without much different from the original Japanese Godzilla , the monster from the much loved rubber .
However , for the makers of this film , there is one challenge that is often ignored . How can I make a Godzilla movie for the 31st time ? How to write a compelling story about human beings dealing with the monster of Japan 's for the first time ?
Actor Bryan Cranston and Aaron Taylor - Johnson in " Godzilla " .
Heavy duty to update the story for 60 -year -old monster is carried by a director whose name is not well known , Gareth Edwards , and screenwriter who is less well known , Max Borenstein . With a budget estimated at $ 160 million , Edwards and Borenstein chose to explore the fundamental meaning behind Godzila , a concept which has been used since the first monster that attacked Japan in 1954 . Godzilla is more than just a wrecking machine reptiles . Godzilla is a tangible manifestation of our fears . " It represents our fear , something we can not control , " said Borenstein .
After the crew behind this film come together , they made two big decisions . First , Godzilla will fight with other monsters , return to tradition . Most importantly , they decided to make the film Godzilla "serious " and more character to commemorate the first film Godzilla . This differs from the Godzilla that looks more ridiculous in the era of the 1960s and 1970s or the characters who try to be funny in the 1998 version , which starred Matthew Broderick .
The first Godzilla movie , made in Japan in 1954 titled " Gojira " , more viscous political elements . " Gojira " was produced when the wounds of World War II is still not dry . There are scenes of displaced families in Tokyo which was heavily damaged and was quite vague references to the impact of the atomic bomb on Japan . Godzilla Awakening is the fruit of the sea of radioactive failure . A scientist has warned that the atomic test may create another monster .
" In the first film , it is obvious that Godzilla is a real embodiment of a nuclear war , " said Borenstein . " He always represent forces beyond our control . That's why we think natural disasters exacerbated by our act . Whether it's Hurricane Katrina or the tsunami that caused the nuclear reactor leak , this is a dangerous disaster that , in some ways , compounded by our own arrogance . "
In this latest film , Godzilla is treated more as a force of nature rather than a character . " Monster has a relationship with another human being in many ways . Godzilla is the relationship he stepped on a human . He did not see them , "said Borenstein . By portraying Godzilla as a natural disaster , the story shifted to how people interact with each other in a crisis .
The story of this film begins with a nuclear reactor accident in Japan . This plot has the potential to rip the back injury as a result of the Fukushima disaster in 2011 . According to Borenstein , a film crew arguing about how to make this film quite sensitive .
"The movie [ Godzilla ] can be made first nine years after the two atomic bombs [ dropped in Japan ] . Films that speak directly to the citizens of Japan . Also in the same year , a Japanese fishing irradiating the hydrogen bomb , triggering a major scandal and loss of life . If they can put a monster as a metaphor to uncover a painful truth , then we can do the same , "said Borenstein .
" It is a challenge that our own choosing. We did not specifically talk about Fukushima , despite the resonance . And in my opinion , it should be no resonance . The best monster movies always talk about a real and reasonable fear . "
