From the atomic allegory of Godzilla and the beguiling charms of Mothra to the tragic mystery of Matango and the disaster and spectacle of Rodan, The Mysterians, King Kong vs. Godzilla, and many others, Honda’s films reflected postwar Japan’s real-life anxieties and incorporated fantastical special effects, a formula that appealed to audiences around the globe and created a popular culture phenomenon that spans generations. Now, in the first full account of this long overlooked director’s life and career, authors Steve Ryfle and Ed Godziszewski shed new light on Honda’s work and the experiences that shaped it—including his days as a reluctant Japanese soldier, witnessing the aftermath of Hiroshima, and his lifelong friendship with Akira Kurosawa. Ishiro Honda: A Life in Film, from Godzilla to Kurosawa features close analysis of Honda’s films (including, for the first time, his rarely seen dramas, comedies, and war films) and draws on previously untapped documents and interviews to explore how creative, economic, and industrial factors impacted his career.

    Introduction In the year 1954, the United States government performed 6 nuclear weapons tests in and around the Pacific Ocean. However, this is just the official story. The truth of the matter is that the U.S. Government and Monarch, a multinational, cryptozoological research organization, were trying to kill an ancient and terrifying apex predator. A Titan. This titans name is Titanus Gojira, more recognizably called Gojira or Godzilla. ​ ​ Godzilla’s species ruled the Earth hundreds of millions of years ago, when radiation levels on the planet were astronomically higher. The advent and testing of nuclear weapons awoke Godzilla from his hibernation on the bottom of Earth’s sea floor, where he was feeding off of the planets geothermal radiation. Despite being the first titan to awake, Godzilla is not the only titan that exists on Earth. There are countless others that still sleep or dwell in hidden areas around the world. You begin your stay within this world in 2014, just a scant few weeks before Joe and Ford Brody witness the awakening of the titan known as the MUTO. A scant few weeks before Godzilla becomes known to the world. Location San Francisco, California (1) ​ San Francisco is a massive American metropolis with an area of about 231 square miles. It is bustling with a population nearing one million and holds some of America’s most iconic landmarks. However, this could all change very quickly in the coming years. This city will become the site of an incredible battle between Godzilla and the two MUTO in the year 2014, which will cause severe damage to the city as a whole.

    contents A Note from the Publisher, 2 Editorial, 3 MEGCON, by Takumi Shibano, 4 The Invasion of ’’THE MYSTERIANS", by Norio Itoh, 6 Science Fiction in Japanese (a list), 9 Fiction: ■ • Love-Keys, by Shin’ichi Hoshi, 10 Fit, by Tadashi Hirose, 12 The Big-Eyed Monster, by Taiji Matsuzaki, 13 TimemiT (a special), by Tadashi Hirose, 14 The Useless One, by Takashi Mayumura, 15 Hole, by Shin’ichi Hoshi, 16 A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER To senior SF fans all over the world, we have a. pleasure to present "UchÛjin": International Edition. This is the first English-edited fanzine in Japan. A Japanese word "Uchû” stands for Universe or Cosmos. "Uchû” consists of two words, "U" and "Chû". The former means Space and the latter Time. A v/ord Jin has. various meanings in Japanese, such as Man, Kidney, etc. In our case this word stands for Dust. So, the whole, meaning of "UchÛjin" is understood as Cosmic Dusts. We find innumerable particles of cosmic dusts floating in the nothingness, when we turn our eyes to the universe. Some of them may be attracted by gravity to planets or stars and burn up to meteors; others may keep floating indefinitely. And some "fortunate” ones among them may pull to each other and join together to be concentrated into a large heavenly body. Then it starts to shine brilliantly by itself in the darkness. This is the process that symbolizes "UchÛjin 1 and its fandom. Takumi Shibano EDITORIAL Uchûjin Club, alias Kagaku Sôsaku Club, alias Science Fiction Club, is the biggest fan club in Japan, but, to our disappointment, not the first one.

  • Ann's Secret Relationship with King Kong
    Julián Monge-Nájera Ann’s secret relationship with King Kong: a biological look at Skull Island and the true nature of the Beauty and Beast Myth Resumen King Kong es una de las películas más estudiadas como posible símbolo de racismo, machismo, sexualidad subconsciente y temas similares. En este artículo me concentro en la viabilidad científica de la geografía, flora y fauna de la película; la relación entre la mujer y el gorila gigante; y los cambios entre las versiones (1933, 1976 y 2005). Para ello unifico análisis dispersos en blogs, páginas web y libros, evaluando críticamente las propuestas de autores previos. Ubico King Kong en el contexto histórico, desde la Epopeya de Gilgamés, pasando por la escultura de Emmanuel Frémiet, hasta la película de 1933. Concluyo que −pese a las deformaciones propias de la época− la vegetación de la isla y la cultura de los nativos tienen cierta verosimilitud, no así la existencia de animales tan grandes en una isla tan pequeña. Un gorila de 20 toneladas está en el límite de lo posible pero podría funcionar en la vida real, como lo prueba la existencia del Paraceratherium bugtiense durante el Oligoceno; además, el gigantismo tendría sentido en una isla con grandes dinosaurios depredadores. Sorprendentemente, el aspecto sexual de la relación entre Ann y Kong no es imposibilitado por razones mecánicas sino por el guión mismo. Hay evidencia documental de que un gorila examinaría un pequeño objeto antropomórfico exactamente como Kong examina a Ann. La literatura científica más reciente señala que algunos indicadores de poder y actividad sexual generan respuesta en las mujeres aunque no provengan del Homo sapiens.

  • Alternative Titles Index
    VHD Index - 02 9/29/04 4:43 PM Page 715 Alternative Titles Index While it's true that we couldn't include every Asian cult flick in this slim little vol- ume—heck, there's dozens being dug out of vaults and slapped onto video as you read this—the one you're looking for just might be in here under a title you didn't know about. Most of these films have been released under more than one title, and while we've done our best to use the one that's most likely to be familiar, that doesn't guarantee you aren't trying to find Crippled Avengers and don't know we've got it as The Return of the 5 Deadly Venoms. And so, we've gathered as many alternative titles as we can find, including their original language title(s), and arranged them in alphabetical order in this index to help you out. Remember, English language articles ("a", "an", "the") are ignored in the sort, but foreign articles are NOT ignored. Hey, my Japanese is a little rusty, and some languages just don't have articles.
