About GODZILLA About GODZILLA | What is GODZILLA? “Godzilla” began as a Jurassic creature evolving from sea reptile to terrestrial beast, awakened by mankind’s thermonuclear tests in the inaugural film. Over time, the franchise itself has evolved, as Godzilla and other creatures appearing in Godzilla films have become a metaphor for social commentary in the real world. The characters are no longer mere entertainment icons but embody emotions and social problems of the times. 2018 © TOHO CO., LTD. All rights reserved/ Confidential & Proprietary 4 About GODZILLA | Filmography Reigning the Kaiju realm for over half a century and prevailing strong --- With its inception in 1954, the GODZILLA movie franchise has brought more than 30 live-action feature films to the world and continues to inspire filmmakers and creators alike. Ishiro Honda’s “GODZILLA”81954), a classic monster movie that is widely regarded as a masterpiece in film, launched a character franchise that expanded over 50 years with 29 titles in total. Warner Bros. and Legendary in 2014 had reintroduced the GODZILLA character to global audience. It contributed to add millennials to GODZILLA fan base as well as regained attention from generations who were familiar with original series. In 2017, the character has made a transition into new media- animated feature. TOHO is producing an animated trilogy to be streamed in over 190 countries on NETFLIX. 2018 © TOHO CO., LTD.

    Godzilla After the Meltdown-the evolution and Title mutation of Japan’s greatest monster- Author(s) HAMILTON Robert,F Citation 明治大学国際日本学研究, 7(1): 41-53 URL http://hdl.handle.net/10291/17398 Rights Issue Date 2015/3/31 Text version publisher Type Departmental Bulletin Paper DOI https://m-repo.lib.meiji.ac.jp/ Meiji University 41 【研究ノート】 Godzilla After the Meltdown: the evolution and mutation of Japan’s greatest monster HAMILTON, Robert F. Abstract: Godzilla (1954) was an allegorical fi lm condemning America’s role in the testing and use of nuclear weapons. As the Godzilla series continued over decades, Japan’s relationship with America changed, as did the metaphors and references within the fi lms. In 2014, we now have the fi rst true American addition to the Godzilla series. This paper explores some of the ways in which Godzilla’s symbolic value has changed through the years, and as the series crossed cultures. Keywords: Godzilla, disaster, fi lm, nuclear energy “In 1954 we awakened something.” - Dr. Serizawa, Godzilla (2014) Godzilla was fi rst released in Japanese theatres in 1954, during a time of deep uncertainty for the nation. A mere nine years previously, the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been devastated by atomic bombs, bringing an end to the war, and beginning an era in which Japan needed to fi nd a new identity as it began rebuilding its infrastructure, political processes, and social value systems. Japan had endured a foreign occupation, a dismantling of its military, a foreign re-writing of its constitution, and a demotion of its emperor from the status of deity, to that of fi gurehead.

  • EL PUENTE ROJO / Shin Godzilla Y El Incombustible Cine De Monstruos CLAUDIA LÓPEZ FRÍAS
    EL PUENTE ROJO / Shin Godzilla y el incombustible cine de monstruos CLAUDIA LÓPEZ FRÍAS Shin Godzilla y el incombustible cine de monstruos (Hideaki Anno, Shinji Higuchi, 2016) Shin Godzilla o Godzilla Resurgence, estrenado en Japón el 29 de Julio del 2016 es el film 31 sobre este monstruo, uno de los más reconocidos cinematográficamente en el mundo. El dinosaurio gigante mutante es una de las referencias más populares del Japón del siglo XX, y puede ser el origen del cine conocido como Kaiju, que se refiere al de bestias gigantes, en inglés traducido como cine de monstruos. Este film en concreto está codirigido por Hideaki Anno y Shinji Higuchi y vuelve a los orígenes para mostrarnos un Godzilla fruto de los desastres nucleares que asola el Japón moderno. La premiere en Japón fue recibida con muy buenas críticas, mejor que en occidente y su éxito en taquillas no ha tenido precedentes en ningún film sobre esta criatura, posiblemente debido a la notoriedad de sus dos directores. En España, debutó el 8 de octubre en el Festival de Sitges de este año (edición 49), y el 29 de octubre en la XXVII Semana de Cine Fantástico y de Terror de San Sebastián y se ha estrenado en cines en enero del 2017, aunque en muy pocas salas. Lo que en Japón es un acontecimiento social, en España se reduce a salas especializadas en cine de autor.

  • 3) on the Released Films (PDF)
    3) On the Released Films and Others ■ Changes of the Number of Released Films from 2001 to 2016 Until the beginning of the 2000s, the number of films released in Japan was between 600 and 650. Towards the end of the 2000s, the number rapidly increased. The number in 2004 was 649, in 2005 it was 731, and in 2006 it was 821, each year, increasing by close to 100. The following three years did not show much increase. Then, in 2010, the number was 716, which increased to 799 in 2011 and to 983 in 2012, again showing rapid hike. In 2014, the number reached to 1,184, followed by 1,136 in 2015, and 1,149 in 2016. Since 2013, the number has been more than 1,100 each year. The reasons behind these increases of the film production in Japan are: first, digitalization lowering the film production budget; second, the increase of film schools and film professional schools; and third, support for film production in the public sector being established. The number of screens also increased by close to 900 from 2,585 in 2001 to 3,472 in 2016. The multi-screen theaters with many screens need a number of films to fill their screening rooms, leading to the increase of imported films released as well as Japanese films released. However, the total attendance between 2001 and 2016 remained mostly unchanged, therefore, the attendance per film decreased from 219,498 in 2005 to 136,078 in 2014.
