When Godzilla Minus One hit theaters, no one could have seen just how big the movie would become. The project ushered in a new era for Toho as the Japanese company took Godzilla back to basics. With director Takashi Yamazaki at the helm, the movie has gone on to become one of the best in Godzilla’s history. Much of its success came on the back of its director, and now, it seems like Yamazaki is interested in revisiting the IP so long as he can remake a classic Godzilla film.
The confession comes from Yamazaki directly as the director appeared at New York Comic Con. It was there guests like Kaiju United got to learn more about movie monsters, and Yamazaki admitted he is interested in remaking Godzilla vs Hedorah.
“I think that for its time, Hedorah was a very cutting-edge kaiju. Thinking about the type of visual expression we can do with technology and how far it’s come today – I’m imagining how it would move, and I think that would be a really cool remake,” the director shared. And as you can imagine, the Godzilla fandom is now begging for Toho to greenlight such a movie for Yamazaki.
I don’t think Shin Godzilla needs to be remade yet… But I’m down for more good Zilla flicks
I had to read the article after seeing your comment.
It’s alright folks, the guy who made the cartoon Godzilla movie does not want to remake Shin Godzilla.
shin was so much better than minus one.
More Japanese-produced Godzilla movies, please! The US-produced ones suck
The Matthew Broderick one is so campy it’s still fun to watch.
Throw in baby Godzilla and watch it sweep the Oscars

Just leaving this here:) !godzilla@lemmy.world
Thanks, didn’t know about that. Subbed.
Does Vs Hedorah count as one of the best? Aren’t the original King Gidorah, Biolante, or GMK a lot better?
