First appearance

Godzilla: Final Wars

Zilla (ジラ,  

Jira^?) is a daikaiju that first appeared in the 2004 Godzilla film, Godzilla: Final Wars. Its design is derived from that of the creature that appears in the 1998 TriStar film Godzilla, with the rights to that design now belonging to Toho.

Name

Six years after the 1998 TriStar film Godzilla was released, Toho Company Ltd. acquired the rights to the creature from the film and officially re-branded the creature’s design as «Zilla» in any appearances post-2004. However, any appearances before then in any media still refer to the creature as «Godzilla», officially. This «Godzilla» branding includes post-2004 releases of earlier productions featuring the creature, such as the 1998 Tristar Godzilla as released in home video formats by Sony Pictures in 2009^[1] and 2019^[2].

As later Toho productions featured «Zilla»—a creature directly visually and conceptually derived from the TriStar Godzilla but with its own «Zilla» branding and icon, matching the same for other Toho monsters as intellectual properties—the result in real-world production history has been two distinct creatures that highly resemble each other, with «Zilla» as a concept following from Toho’s legal rights to the TriStar Godzilla’s visual design.

Toho has declared that any subsequent appearances will be under the name «Zilla,» because, according to Shogo Tomiyama, the TriStar creature’s design «took the ‘God’ out of ‘Godzilla. ‘»^[3]

Design

Development

The creature was created entirely through computer generated imagery, as was its inspiration from the 1998 film.

The CGI model for the design was created by scanning Trendmasters’ Ultimate Godzilla figure.^[4]

Appearance

This design is mostly based on the 1998 Godzilla design, and remains mostly unchanged. The two most notable differences between the 2004 design and its predecessor are its scutes,^[5]

which now point up straight instead of curving forward like the original design’s scutes.

Additionally, another difference is the color of its skin, which is now a stone grey, presumably to blend in with the Sydney architecture, similar to how the 1998’s design blended in with New York’s architecture.

Roar

Zilla reused the 1998 Godzilla’s roars, albeit they were slightly altered for the film. In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla’s roar is written as «SKREEEEEENK. »

Personality

In his appearances in Godzilla: Final Wars, and Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla, was shown to not run away nearly as much and tried to fight even when outmatched. In Godzilla: Final Wars, he faced Godzilla head-on, a move that, while not smart, was brave, although this could be because he was under the Xiliens’ control and was forced to fight Godzilla.

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, he retained many of the same abilities and characteristics of his 1998 counterpart, although he lost his cowardly nature. He faced Godzilla head-on once again, evaded his attacks, and landed several attacks of his own. However, he retreated to the sea when Godzilla was close to killing him and he had just barely escaped Godzilla’s grip. When Zilla resurfaced for the final battle against the Trilopods, he attacked and viciously killed and wounded multiple Trilopods.

Origins

Zilla’s origins go unexplained in Godzilla: Final Wars, and he is never even mentioned by name in the film. According to supplementary materials for the film, Zilla is a monster «closely resembling» a monster that attacked New York City in 1998 and may be the same creature, though this is «unconfirmed,» an obvious inside-joke referencing the 1998 film.

[6]

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla’s origins are never directly discussed, but it is established that he is part of the natural balance of Earth, along with all of the other Earth Godzilla (TriStar). Zilla’s appearance on the Infant Island mural suggests that he is an ancient creature, instead of a mutated iguana like his previous incarnations.

History

Godzilla: Final Wars

In Godzilla: Final Wars, Zilla is one of the monsters controlled by the Xiliens, and under their control he attacks Sydney, Australia. The towering reptile topples down buildings, chomps on vehicles, incinerates a crowd with his acidic flame breath, and even eats a couple of civilians.

Then suddenly, the Xiliens teleport the reptile and the other monsters around the world. They tell the humans that they took the monsters away to save Earth. However, the humans find that the Xiliens were controlling the monsters and the Xiliens release all the monsters again to finish destroying the cities they were attacking. When Godzilla is freed from the south pole and defeats the Xilien warrior Gigan, the alien leader’s re-release Zilla in Sydney to do battle with Godzilla. He is defeated rather quickly by Godzilla himself, who sends him flying into the Sydney Opera House and finishes him off with his atomic breath. The battle was the shortest in the

Godzilla series, unless one counts the deleted «Godzilla vs Manda» scene from Destroy All Monsters.

Critics have said that this short battle was meant to show Toho’s displeasure towards Sony and TriStar with their handling of the Godzilla franchise, even going as far as to label this particular scene in the scene selection menu of the DVD «Pretender to the throne», which is meant to be an inside joke about Godzilla being nicknamed «King of the Monsters».

Abilities

Agility

This creature was shown to be extremely agile and fast.

Camouflage

In Godzilla: Final Wars, Zilla’s stone-gray skin color seemingly allows him to blend in with Sydney’s architecture.

Burrowing

He also has shown a remarkable burrowing ability, able to excavate the thick tar and concrete with ease. This ability is present with Zilla in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, which allowed him to evade and ambush Godzilla.

Acidic flame breath

In Final Wars, Zilla is said by director Ryuhei Kitamura to possess an «acidic flame breath.» This is most likely a variation of his previous incarnation’s power breath, but it is never seen in use, only hinted at when Zilla emerges from behind an explosion similar to the one caused by Godzilla’s power breath in the 1998 film.^[7]

Intelligence

In Godzilla: Final Wars, Zilla does not exhibit a great deal of strategy, as he (perhaps foolishly) attempts to attack Godzilla head-on, only to be swatted into the air and quickly reduced to a pile of ash by his atomic breath.

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, however, Zilla seems to regain the 1998 Godzilla’s intelligence, as he exhibits strategy in his battle with Godzilla, using his burrowing ability to evade a blast of Godzilla’s atomic breath and even pulling Godzilla into the military’s line of fire to use him as a shield while the latter is grappling him.

When Zilla realizes he has no chance of winning the fight, he waits for an opportunity and escapes to the ocean while Godzilla is distracted. Zilla later somehow manages to avoid capture by the Trilopods when they attack the Monster Islands, and knows to travel to Los Angeles to join forces with the other Earth monsters and battle the Trilopods.

Scutes

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla displayed the ability to use his scutes as a weapon. Zilla ran at a Trilopod and bent downward, causing his scutes to slice its neck.

Video games

Godzilla: Unleashed

According to an interview with Simon Strange conducted by Chris Mirjahangir from Toho Kingdom, Zilla was in fact considered for the game, but due to lack of popularity from fans who said that «his inclusion would ruin the game,» Zilla was scrapped. ^[8][9]

Comics

Godzilla: Rulers of Earth

Zilla appears in the first issue of Godzilla: Rulers of Earth as a rogue Godzilla (TriStar). He is first sighted by a submarine which mistakes him for Godzilla. He later makes landfall in Honolulu, Hawaii and is given the identification as «Zilla» due to radio interference. He then goes on a rampage while fighting the CKR forces stationed there before being attacked by Godzilla, who has also arrived, and the two monsters prepare to fight. Godzilla tail-smacks Zilla into a building and blasts him with his atomic breath, similar to the way Godzilla finished him in

Godzilla: Final Wars. However, Zilla burrows underground and avoids the blast. Zilla then digs behind Godzilla and ambushes him. Godzilla and Zilla engage in a heated physical battle until Godzilla grabs Zilla by the neck and chokes him. Before Godzilla can kill Zilla, CKR opens fire on Godzilla, distracting him long enough for Zilla to escape to the sea.

In this series, Zilla bears more of a resemblance to his 1998 Godzilla design as opposed to his 2004 Final Wars design. Although any real powers have yet to be seen, he appears to have an extremely thick hide as implied to him sustaining multiple hits from artillery fire. He also is very quick and actually does not run away strictly like his 1998 film incarnation, but instead has an attitude more like the animated series incarnation, not running away until Godzilla almost kills him.

Zilla reappears in Rulers of Earth #13, where he is spotted swimming in the waters around the Monster Islands. Zilla apparently avoided capture when the Trilopods invaded the Monster Islands, as he was not seen inside the Trilopod hive.

Zilla returned in the final issue, where he suddenly appeared in Los Angeles and saved Jet Jaguar from a Trilopod with Godzilla’s characteristics. Zilla then took part in the final battle against the Trilopods alongside Godzilla and the other Earth monsters, managing to injure and kill several of the creatures. Zilla attempted to battle Magita, the gigantic Trilopod queen, but was kicked aside by its massive legs. After Godzilla destroyed Magita, Zilla and the other monsters followed Godzilla out to sea.

Godzilla: Oblivion

Zilla appeared at the very end of the fourth issue of Godzilla: Oblivion, where he emerged from an interdimensional portal alongside Biollante, Rodan, Mothra, Anguirus and King Caesar. In the following issue, where Hedorah joined the monsters, Zilla wandered off and rampaged through the city on his own, later establishing a nest and laying hundreds of eggs, while most of the other monsters tried to battle Mecha-King Ghidorah. Later, after Mecha-King Ghidorah was defeated by Godzilla, all of the monsters were left behind as the humans left the Earth as it became covered by tiny robotic cells that served as interdimensional doorways.

“	I knew that tuna-eating monster was useless!	„
	— Controller of Planet X, after Zilla is defeated by Godzilla (Godzilla Final Wars)

Zilla (ジラ,   Jira) is a giant mutant iguana kaiju^[4] who first appeared in the 2004 Toho Godzilla film Godzilla Final Wars.

One of the Xiliens’ many mind-controlled monster pawns, Zilla was unleashed in Sydney, Australia before he was teleported away as the Xiliens tried to pose as humanity’s saviors. When their plan was exposed by the Earth Defense Force and Godzilla was freed from Antarctica, Zilla was deployed to battle him in Sydney. Zilla was quickly defeated by Godzilla, who swatted him aside with his tail and finished him with a blast of his atomic breath. Zilla is based on TriStar’s controversial depiction of Godzilla from the 1998 American film and was included in Godzilla Final Wars after TriStar’s rights to the character expired and reverted to Toho. Zilla’s only film appearance to date came in Godzilla Final Wars, but he has also been featured in the mobile game Godzilla Kaiju Collection and two licensed Godzilla comic series published by IDW Publishing. Zilla also exists within the timeline of the GODZILLA anime trilogy of films, with an entire chapter dedicated to the creature in the novel GODZILLA: Monster Apocalypse.

Name

Zilla’s name is derived from that of Godzilla, with the «God» part removed. According to Godzilla Final Wars producer Shogo Tomiyama, this name was chosen because the TriStar Godzilla «took the ‘God’ out of ‘Godzilla,'» elaborating that «Hollywood’s Godzilla is just a normal monster. He’s not a God.»^[7] Though the original creature from the 1998 film legally remains known as Godzilla, all of its future appearances in media will be as the monster Zilla. As stated by Godzilla: Rulers of Earth artist and co-writer Matt Frank, «Toho makes zero distinction between ‘Zilla’ and ‘Godzilla 1998’ with the exception of title alone… Ever since 2004, Toho’s official stance has been that any future incarnations of the character be referred to hereafter as ‘Zilla.'»^[8] Because the monsters are considered otherwise identical outside of name, even merchandise specifically based on the creature from the 1998 film may use the name «Zilla.»^[9] Licensed merchandise of the TriStar Godzilla can continue to be made under the «Godzilla» name as well, however, as evidenced by X-Plus’ DefoReal Godzilla 1998 figure,^[10] various ornaments by Cast,^[11] and a Bandai keychain.^[12][13]

Zilla’s name is never spoken onscreen in Godzilla Final Wars, though he is at one point referred to by the Controller of Planet X as a tuna-eating monster (マグロを食ってる,   maguro o kutteru, lit. «tuna-eater»), or tuna-head in the English dub. Because of this line, Japanese fans frequently refer to both Zilla and the TriStar Godzilla by the nicknames Maguro (マグロ, lit. «tuna») or Maguro-san (マグロさん, lit. «Mr. Tuna»).

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla receives his name after being misidentified as Godzilla. A soldier tries to report the monster’s appearance over a communicator, but the transmission is interrupted and only «-zilla» is relayed, which is then adopted as the creature’s name. In GODZILLA: Monster Apocalypse, Zilla earns the nickname French Godzilla (フランスのゴジラ,   Furansu no Gojira) after the French military incorrectly identifies the first specimen of the species as Godzilla.

Design

In Godzilla Final Wars, Zilla’s appearance is almost identical to that of the TriStar Godzilla, due to his CGI model being created simply by scanning Trendmasters’ Ultimate Godzilla figure.^[14] The only differences in his appearance are his scutes, which point straight upward instead of curving forward. His skin is tan with blue on top of his body, similar to the 1998 Godzilla, although he appears almost entirely light blue during daytime scenes. Zilla possesses a dewlap, but not spiky like the one that was present on the TriStar Godzilla’s neck.

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla is given the exact design of the TriStar Godzilla, complete with curved scutes and the same coloration and details on his skin. One feature unique to the IDW Zilla is the presence of a fifth digit on his hands. While the suit created for the TriStar Godzilla bore a small vestigial fifth digit on its hands, Zilla’s is fully developed and usable.

Personality

In Godzilla Final Wars, Zilla is completely under the control of the Xiliens, and attacks Sydney under their orders. When he battles Godzilla, Zilla, perhaps foolishly, attempts to attack Godzilla head-on by pouncing on him, which results in his quick demise.

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla is highly aggressive and extremely vicious, attacking Godzilla upon encountering him in Honolulu. Zilla holds his own in the battle by evading Godzilla’s attacks and opportunistically striking him back, but retreats as soon as Godzilla gains the upper hand and nearly kills him. Zilla later takes up residence in the waters around the Monster Islands, but avoids going ashore where the other kaiju are. Zilla manages to evade the Trilopods when they invade the islands and capture the kaiju, then follows them to Los Angeles and attacks them. During this battle, Zilla actively rescues Jet Jaguar from several Trilopods, then joins forces with Godzilla and the other monsters to defeat the alien menace. After the battle, Zilla and the other kaiju seemingly submit to Godzilla and follow him out to sea.

Origins

Zilla’s origins go unexplained in Godzilla Final Wars, and he is never even mentioned by name. According to the film’s theater program, Zilla’s «true identity is unknown, but according to one theory it may be the same monster that struck New York in 1997.»^[8] The book Godzilla Final Wars Super Complete Works, published in 2005, reiterates this, stating «Informal information has been reported saying that the same kind of monster appeared on the East Coast of the U. S. in 1998,» obviously referencing the 1998 American Godzilla film. The book also states that Zilla is a «mutated iguana monster with tuna as its regular meal.»^{[4][note 2]}

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla’s origins are never directly discussed, but it is established that he is part of the natural balance of Earth, along with all of the other Earth kaiju. Zilla’s appearance on the Infant Island mural suggests that he is an ancient creature, instead of a mutated iguana like his film incarnation. In Godzilla: Oblivion, Zilla is one of several kaiju that inhabits an alternate dimension where Godzilla rules.

In the continuity of the GODZILLA anime trilogy, Zilla’s specific origins are unclear and contested, but one theory posits that Zilla, along with Orga and Biollante, may be a subspecies of Godzilla or a species directly derived from him.

History

• Godzilla Final Wars (2004)

Millennium era

Godzilla Final Wars

Zilla in Godzilla Final Wars

Zilla was sent to attack Sydney, Australia, under the command of the Xiliens. The towering reptile terrorized the city, destroying cars and eating civilians. Suddenly, Zilla and all of the other kaiju that had appeared around the world were teleported away by the Xiliens, who claimed to have come to save humanity. After the Xiliens’ true intent, to take over the world and harvest mankind’s mitochondria, was revealed, they re-released all of their monsters. The Earth Defense Force freed Godzilla from Area G in Antarctica and led him across the world to defeat the Xiliens’ monsters. The Controller of Planet X had Zilla redeployed in Sydney to battle Godzilla. Zilla pounced at Godzilla, avoiding a blast from his atomic breath, but Godzilla swung his tail and knocked the monster into the Sydney Opera House before incinerating him with another blast. Following Zilla’s defeat, the Controller simply remarked that he «knew that tuna-eating monster was useless.»

Abilities

Jumping abilities

Zilla pounces at Godzilla in Godzilla Final Wars

Zilla is an extraordinary jumper, capable of pouncing large distances to attack his enemies with a High Jump Kick (ハイジャンプキック).

Agility

Zilla is incredibly fast and agile. Zilla tends to charge at his opponents, and is capable of quickly fleeing or evading enemies when he is overwhelmed.

Physical abilities

Zilla’s claws managed to draw blood from Godzilla in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, though he was largely overmatched by the King of the Monsters. During the final battle between Earth’s monsters and the Trilopods, he slashed the throat of a Godzilla-type Trilopod with his scutes, and later tears into the throat of the Titanosaurus-type Trilopod with his teeth.

Burrowing

Zilla tunnels underground in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth#2

In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla displays the TriStar Godzilla’s ability to burrow through concrete and steel. Zilla uses this ability to evade a blast of Godzilla’s atomic breath during their battle in Honolulu, and even opens up a sinkhole beneath him.

Intelligence

In Godzilla Final Wars, Zilla does not exhibit a great deal of strategy, as he (perhaps foolishly) attempts to attack Godzilla head-on, only to be swatted aside and quickly dispatched by his atomic breath. In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla seems to regain the 1998 Godzilla’s intelligence, as he exhibits strategy in his battle with Godzilla, using his burrowing ability to evade a blast of Godzilla’s atomic breath and even pulling Godzilla into the military’s line of fire while the latter is grappling him. When Zilla realizes he has no chance of winning the fight, he waits for an opportunity and escapes to the ocean while Godzilla is distracted. Zilla later somehow manages to avoid capture by the Trilopods when they attack the Monster Islands, and knows to travel to Los Angeles to join forces with the other Earth monsters and battle the Trilopods.

Asexual reproduction

In GODZILLA: Monster Apocalypse, Zilla was given the TriStar Godzilla’s ability to rapidly reproduce asexually, using fertility and sheer numbers as a weapon. Text from the novel says: «If you leave one young one alive, no, if you leave just an egg behind, it’ll hatch and reproduce all over again» and, «the big ones are dangerous, but the young ones were more troublesome. They’re intelligent and act in herds. The young ones act as decoys for the tanks while the adults attack from the rooftops.»

Durability

Although Zilla was easily killed by a single blast of Godzilla’s atomic breath in Godzilla Final Wars, the version which appeared in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth survived sustained hand-to-hand combat with the King of the Monsters. However, he was also hurt by small-arms fire and a missile from a helicopter. During the Earth monsters’ showdown with Magita, a kick from the giant Trilopod knocked him out of the fight, though he recovered following her death.

Books

GODZILLA: Monster Apocalypse

Zilla appeared in France in October of 2039 and was brought down by the French military, who initially misidentified the creature as Godzilla due to it being bipedal and possessing dorsal fins and a long tail. However, Zilla possessed the ability to reproduce asexually, and its offspring quickly overran the city of Rouen, which had managed to escape the wrath of Godzilla himself. Even though an adult Zilla was considerably more frail than most kaiju, able to be brought down with a single shot from a Maser Cannon or railgun, its greatest strength was its fertility. If just one egg was left behind, hundreds more Zillas could be born and overrun the city again. The Zillas were also intelligent and capable of working in herds, younger ones would draw the attention of tanks while adults attacked from the rooftops. Zilla was mentioned to be the hardest kaiju to free a city from, and was not finally exterminated until December.^[15]

Zilla appeared in the first issue of Godzilla: Rulers of Earth as a rogue kaiju. He was first sighted by a submarine which mistook him for Godzilla.

He then went on a rampage while fighting the CKR forces stationed there before being attacked by Godzilla, who had also arrived, and the two monsters prepared to fight. Godzilla threw Zilla into a building and blasted him with his atomic breath, similar to the way Godzilla finished him in Godzilla Final Wars. However, Zilla burrowed underground and avoided the blast. Zilla then dug behind Godzilla and ambushed him. Godzilla and Zilla engaged in a heated physical battle until Godzilla grabbed Zilla by the neck and choked him.

Roar

In Godzilla Final Wars, Zilla’s roars are recycled from the TriStar Godzilla’s roars, themselves a combination of the Showa Godzilla’s roars and elephant sounds. Zilla’s roars seem to be mostly the elephant-based roars, rather than the Godzilla-based ones. They were later mixed with Millenium-era Godzilla roars for Godzilla Filius in GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters. In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, Zilla’s roar is written as «SKREEEEEENK.»

Trivia

• Shogo Tomiyama and Ryuhei Kitamura did not originally intend to include Zilla in Godzilla Final Wars, but upon learning that they could use the TriStar Godzilla in the film, they decided to feature him as the new monster Zilla. Zilla’s late addition may be responsible for the monster’s lack of appearances in merchandise and promotional materials for the film.
  • Zilla’s quick destruction at the hands of Godzilla in Godzilla Final Wars was, according to Shogo Tomiyama, meant to «show which Godzilla is stronger,»^[16] reflecting many fans’ dissatisfaction with TriStar’s depiction of Godzilla.
• Despite Zilla’s quick demise in Godzilla Final Wars, Patrick Tatopoulos was thrilled to learn that the Godzilla he designed would be appearing in a Toho film.^[16]
• Zilla’s role in the novel GODZILLA: Monster Apocalypse is a direct reference to the worst-case scenario regarding the TriStar Godzilla’s reproduction in the 1998 film, where it multiplies rapidly and overruns an entire city due to all of its offspring being born capable of asexual reproduction. In addition, Zilla attacks France, a reference to the French being responsible for Godzilla’s creation in the 1998 film.
• Zilla was briefly considered for inclusion in the video game Godzilla: Unleashed, but didn’t make the cut due to his lack of popularity during production on the previous games.^[17][18]
• After Zilla is dispatched by Godzilla in Godzilla Final Wars, the Controller of Planet X angrily says «I knew that tuna-eating monster was useless,» a reference to the TriStar Godzilla’s diet of fish in the 1998 film. In the film’s English dub, the Controller calls Zilla a «tuna head.»
• Zilla is the only monster in Godzilla Final Wars to be portrayed entirely through computer-generated imagery, a nod to the TriStar Godzilla being portrayed primarily through CGI in the 1998 film.
• In Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, when Zilla is seen swimming in the waters around the Monster Islands, the character Chavez suggests that Zilla may be reluctant to set foot on the islands because he isn’t welcome. Lucy assures him that the other monsters will eventually come to accept him. This is most likely an inside joke referencing the Godzilla fanbase’s reluctance to accept Zilla.
• Godzilla: Rulers of Earth artist Matt Frank noted that while Zilla could have reproduced and gained the TriStar Godzilla’s «power breath» ability had the series continued, he or his offspring would not have been able to employ the green atomic breath used by Godzilla in Godzilla: The Series due to IDW Publishing not holding the rights to that specific version of the character.^[19]

Веселая судьба первого американского Годзиллы

Автор Джошуа Кристиан Маккой

Опубликовано 24 января 2023 г.

Мало кто знает, что Тохо купил ужасную версию Короля монстров Роланда Эммериха. Мало кто знает, что они с ним сделали.

Американский фильм 1998 года Годзилла был по праву презираем ярыми поклонниками франшизы кайдзю и широкой аудиторией. Это было в значительной степени забыто, отчасти благодаря гораздо лучшим усилиям Legendary Pictures за предыдущее десятилетие. Однако в 2004 году студия, которой принадлежит оригинальный Годзилла, решила позаботиться о том, чтобы новое существо, использующее его имя, запомнилось должным образом.

В окружении гигантских монстров Годзиллы есть много менее известных членов. Все знают его соперника Кинг-Конга, и большинство людей, вероятно, могли бы назвать Мотру или Кинга Гидору, но есть довольно много кайдзю, которые не оставили длительного следа. Когда Тохо решил собрать всех для грандиозного фильма, они также притащили с собой американского Годзиллу для нежного прощания.

СВЯЗАННЫЙ: Все, что мы знаем о грядущем фильме «Годзилла»

В 90-х годах продюсер Генри Дж. Саперштейн решил использовать добрую волю, которую он накопил, создав Годзилла фильмов в Соединенные Штаты, чтобы представить оригинальный американский взгляд на Короля монстров. Идея долго обсуждалась, прежде чем попала в TriStar Pictures. У компании был контракт с Toho Co. на создание трилогии, который по понятным причинам сорвался. Введите Роллан Эммерих и его давний сотрудник Дин Девлин. Оба мужчины были в восторге от успеха Дня Независимости . Они были первыми в списке вызовов, когда Голливуду нужно было взорвать много вещей. Они подписались, но настаивали на творческом контроле, что привело к тому, что TriStar отказалась от всего, что у них было до сих пор. Сообщается, что Эммерих считал, что оригинальные 1954 дизайн Годзиллы не имел логического смысла, поэтому он настоял на новом облике. Его главная забота заключалась в том, чтобы он мог работать очень быстро. Тохо ненавидел новый внешний вид, но, поскольку соавтор сериала Томоюки Танака лежал на больничной койке, они все равно одобрили его.

Пожалуй, самой умной вещью в Godzilla 1998 года был маркетинговый ход. Несмотря на все свои недостатки, у Эммериха была одна блестящая идея. Он настаивал на том, чтобы внешний вид его существа тщательно скрывался. Телевизионная реклама никогда не показывала зверя целиком, рекламные щиты и реклама в автобусах упоминали только его размер, а зрители никогда не видели Годзиллу Эммериха, пока не попали в кинотеатр. Когда они это увидели, то возненавидели. Все ненавидели это. Это прославленный тираннозавр с шипами и длинными ногами. Его безжалостно высмеивали почти все, кто его видел, и он быстро стал примером способности Америки разрушать иностранное искусство. Тохо был недоволен, и они решили выразить это недовольство самым забавным способом.

В начале 2000-х режиссер Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes Рюхей Китамура создавал свою любимую классику кайдзю Godzilla: Final Wars . Если бы фильмы о Годзилле были кинематографической вселенной, Final Wars были бы их Avengers: Endgame . Каждый крупный игрок и второстепенная фигура вернулись, чтобы сражаться против Короля монстров или вместе с ним в день его 50-летия. Китамура поддержал эту идею, в конце концов спросив продюсера Сёго Томияму, имеют ли они право использовать Годзиллу Эммериха. Они обнаружили, что имеют полное право использовать зверя. Томияма окрестил существо «Зилла» как отсылка к нефирменным товарам с использованием суффикса, так и как оскорбление его дизайна. Он чувствовал, что американский Годзилла убрал «Бога» из уравнения, сделав его обычным животным. Получив права, Китамура дал Зилле прекрасную роль в своем фильме.

Zilla находится в Final Wars менее минуты. Его происхождение остается совершенно пустым. Он просто внезапно появляется в Сиднее, Австралия, где его можно увидеть, разбивая случайные объекты в течение примерно 12 секунд. Его телепортировали со сцены антагонисты фильма, раса могущественных пришельцев. Позже в фильме его переносят обратно в Сидней, чтобы сразиться с настоящим Годзиллой. Также длится всего несколько секунд. Зилла прыгает, изо всех сил бросая свое тело на Годзиллу. Его легко сбить с ног ударом хвоста Годзиллы. Он приземляется в кучу, разрушая Сиднейский оперный театр под своей массой. Годзилла вдыхает и превращает Зиллу в пепел одним атомным дыханием. Во всех смыслах Зилла умерла тут же. Это краткое исполнение посвящено классическому треку Sum 41 «We’re All to Blame». Выпуск фильма на DVD прояснил намерения битвы, назвав сцену «Претендент на трон».

На космическом уровне очень забавно, что реакция художника на то, что кто-то другой вмешивается в его видение, заключается в том, чтобы убить его в художественной литературе. Больше создателей должны позволять своим персонажам переживать свои ссоры на большом экране. Есть что-то катарсическое в том, что они демонстрируют свое превосходство над дизайном, который никому не нравился. Трудно представить, какое удовлетворение это должно было принести людям, работающим над проектом.
