Long before the Avengers or the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there was the world of kaiju created by Toho. After introducing several monsters one by one, or having them butt heads as opponents and rivals, the gloves came completely off for a world-shattering collision of Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra, and King Ghidorah in the ensemble film, appropriately t...
In hindsight, the name given to the gigantic, moth-like titan--Mothra--makes a lot more sense than the one given to the star of the show, Godzilla. A literal explanation for the original Japanese name is actually a bit more difficult. All we can say for certain is that the Japanese name of the massive, not-so-villainous kaiju is that its name "Mosu...
Director Michael Dougherty makes sure to give every one of the movies monsters an epic introduction, and Rodan's is no exception. It's a quite a departure from the original appearance of the kaiju, when its own movie revealed that it was likely a prehistoric Pteranadon (Ra-don, changed to the name Rodanfor English audiences). That film had Rodan--w...
For obvious reasons, the movie's explanation for monstrous myths opens plenty of doors, revealing that titans are real, and the basis of what we think of as myths of the ancient or even not too dispant past. When the true size and scope of Monarch's monitoring is unveiled, it becomes clear that the group has found evidence of titans (or the creatur...
The sheer number of moments and references made to the long legacy of Toho films proves the filmmakers set out to honor them all. But the homages and nods of fan service extend far beyond the Toho kaiju universe, into the larger world of classic monster movies. The names like Orca and Argo refer to Jaws and Jason and the Argonauts, but one of the e...
While the massive three-headed monster may have been found at, apparently, the 32nd outpost Monarch created, it was the one they knew posed the most catastrophic potential for planet Earth. As the apparent basis for countless ancient myths (the Hydra being the most obviously direct inspiration) the Monarch specialists gave it a classification that ...
If fans noted that the official outpost number for King Ghidorah's discovery site is a clever Easter Egg, then they'll expect the same to be true for the other monsters as well. Fortunately, they won't be disappointed. The volcanic resting place of Rodan is officially designated Outpost 56, which is a direct reference to its year of release in 1956...
The religious or mystical elements of the kaiju mythology are obviously given a back seat to the scientific, biological questions about Godzilla, Mothra, Ghidorah, and Rodan (reflecting modern society as much as the original Toho's films did for their own). But one clever remnant of the original Mothrastory remains: the godlike being's twin fairies...
For any movie fan, the idea of asking "what sound does a moth make when it screams?"will garner everything from hilarious, to deeply disturbing responses. But a giant moth like Mothra makes a wide variety of high-pitched squeaks, chirps, and screeches. And as another way of honoring the character's movie history, the diehard fans of Toho's kaiju wi...
The odds of seeing the Loch Ness Monster appear in a future sequel may be slim, but Nessie isn't the only creature design suggested for this movie universe. Fans will need to be eagle-eyed to take in every single codename designation and research site Monarch is monitoring around the world, but a few will be easier to spot. Especially for fans of t...
