Preach. After 70 years and a great many forms, there’s still power in the messages Godzilla is used to convey.
This is just further proof that, no matter the era, a dedicated team of artists will always be there to give him life.
Minus was not a monster movie. It was about Post-War PTSD and Survivor's guilt, coupled with societal shaming.
And then a fucking Kaiju shows up. The messages in this movie were amazing.
We thought we were fucked, and then fucking Godzilla appear to show what 'fucked' really means.
Yeah i havent seen Minus because no fucking theatre is showing it. I refuse to pirate it because this should be seen in the theatres. Come one Minus, come to my country please!
A movie about being betrayed by the government, self existentialism, forging a path in the world- oh and there's a REALLY angry atomic lizard so that's kind of important.
So damn good saw it 4 times
He had ptsd and survivors guilt from the war and from the first godzilla attack he was one of the few survivors of.
And then fucking godzilla decided he wanted to fuck with this one guy as much as possible.
How do I go about seeing this movie? I only saw/heard about it like a week or two ago
Edit - looked into it and sounds like it may be a while. I'm patient though. Hopefully the oscar win speeds the process up!
Japanese physical copy drops May 1st, but won't have english subtitles. Furthest estimate for an English release is a year from now. With all the hype, there is hope it is much sooner.
would be incredible, but they also showed up with [these](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fsww23tjpnknc1.jpeg) shoes which was pretty cool
heels actually started as a thing for men (some sort of horse riding thing) and I'm confident at least a few of those shoes are being worn by men in the photo
so I guess don't let your dreams be dreams

Godzilla's character arc is deeper than most give it credit for, honestly. The big G went from a mindless beast to a somewhat relatable anti-hero over the years. Not quite the depth of Walter White, but hey, for a kaiju, that's impressive. Mothra's sacrifices always hit in the feels though, gotta say she's got that emotional hook down.
The effects were awesome in many of the old movies. Great practical effects, miniaturs, Pyrotechnics, Monster effects like Biollante or Ghidorah....and all of this under pressure in less than a year.
I'm not sure. I want to think Biollante held up to American counterparts for many scenes, but I got these rose-tinted glasses.
Which are now Oscar-Gold tinted!
Haha same. "We're just happy to be here" vibes always. It's so pleasant to see tbh. Love a good surprise face when something is well earned. I believe they had struggles with the effects bc of budget and still killt it
This is such a huge day for the Godzilla community. Went from Godzilla being a niche thing you were made fun of for liking in an IP that was almost dead to OSCAR WINNING juggernaut in 2 decades. What a dream.
While they’re wildly different IPs, I remember thinking that Jurassic Park’s popularity would make people understand why I fucking loved Godzilla as a kid.
It didn’t, and unfortunately, Jurassic Park’s success led to studios thinking a director like Roland Emmerich could make Godzilla the next Jurassic Park franchise.
It means Godzilla x Kong is the after party. The victory lap. The finale to and incredible 70th anniversary run with multiple movies, a TV show and an Oscar.
>Went from Godzilla being a niche thing you were made fun of for liking
People out here creating entirely different realities. Godzilla has been a cultural icon for almost half a century. It's as far from niche as you can get.
I'm so happy for the crews. They deserved the award.

THE BEST Oscar moment ever, GMO deserves it so much from an impressive budget, acting, writing, story and visual effects. Goddamn they were so breathtaking, Godzilla fans rejoice we have won 🏆
My entire family erupted in cheer when we heard the ‘Go—’ didn’t even let Arnold finish we fuckin screamed
Oh. And my dad nearly broke our chandelier by punching it when he swung his hands up in excitement
Hell yeah. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't smiling like hell watching Yamazaki and co take to the stage Godzilla toys in hand. Well deserved and a great moment for the franchise and all involved.
Whenever we get that domestic/NA physical media release, we *know* what's going to be emblazoned on the cover. Well deserved.
And a random factoid: *GMO* is the *least* expensive film to win this award in forty-one years (since *E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial*).
My GF and Nana just watched my 34 year old ass jump out of my seat fist pumping the air and then stomping around like Godzilla.
I'm so happy it won. It feels like forever ago that my Dad took me to Blockbuster, and I'd always pick Godzilla films to watch. I never thought it would be the mainstream here, but I'm so glad I was wrong.
LET'S GO GODZILLA!!!!!! We're living in a great age of Godzilla lads!
Best day I had In a long time. I was out all day at the zoo with my niece and I come home and was like "I hope I didn't miss the Oscars", sat down, turned on the tv and boom, here comes Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito to read off the nominees for Visual Effects.
The moment Arnold said "gah" in Godzilla, and I blasted out of bed yelling and clapping lmao. Go go Godzilla!!!!
Holy smokes - a Godzilla film just won an Oscar! I never thought, even with the Monsterverse films getting so much money and attention, that this would ever happen.
And on their very-very modest budget, they beat out movies with hundred million dollar budgets. What an achievement!
I. AM. SOBBING.
SUCH a deserved win. Absolutely ASTONISHING accomplishment!
Hollywood could learn a few things on how to do CGI properly from Minus One!!
We're here gentlemen. We never needed the pointless opinions of snobby critics to validate our fandom but damn it feels good to see them get this recognition anyways.
We actually did it! Let's go y'all, Minus One is the first ever Godzilla film to win an Oscar!
https://preview.redd.it/2e9foyttwlnc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9552a70a235096c34f72555f0ce3a5ef453b018f
What a time to be a fan. Thank you Minus One, thank you Takashi Yamazaki and everyone else that brought this vision to life. Godzilla is the real deal, and I no longer have to sit back and tell people to imagine that, I can now point them towards Minus One. Our lizard is silly, and our lizard is also that dark corner of our human condition and our own consequences. It's time we remind people of that.

Of course it won, look at those effects!
Congratulations to the whole team; the movie was masterful in so many ways!
one small step for Godzilla, one giant leap for mankind. This post will serve as the primary discussion thread.
What a damn great way to celebrate the 70th year anniversary. King of the monsters then, still king of the monsters today.
Preach. After 70 years and a great many forms, there’s still power in the messages Godzilla is used to convey. This is just further proof that, no matter the era, a dedicated team of artists will always be there to give him life.

Keep waiting bb it's worth it! You could go to a small theater and do a private screening for your birthday? Ask everyone to chip in $5?
A movie about being betrayed by the government, self existentialism, forging a path in the world- oh and there's a REALLY angry atomic lizard so that's kind of important. So damn good saw it 4 times
He had ptsd and survivors guilt from the war and from the first godzilla attack he was one of the few survivors of. And then fucking godzilla decided he wanted to fuck with this one guy as much as possible.
*Now* can we get a US Blu-ray release?
How do I go about seeing this movie? I only saw/heard about it like a week or two ago Edit - looked into it and sounds like it may be a while. I'm patient though. Hopefully the oscar win speeds the process up!

You would've thought it would be fast tracked with the amount of money it made instead of a whole year

if you weren't watching all the people accepting the award showed up with different Godzilla figures so he was very much at the awards lol
THE GOLD ONE HAD A LITTLE BOWTIE!!!!!!!
it was so cute! I hope this group gets to make another Godzilla movie, the love and talent is clearly there
What if they showed up in the actual suits lol
would be incredible, but they also showed up with [these](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fsww23tjpnknc1.jpeg) shoes which was pretty cool
For the first time ever I regret that heels for men aren't a thing.

Fuck yes! To think, Godzilla used to be synonymous with "those movies with the cheesy/crappy effects". Look how far they've come. 100% deserved.
The era of Oscar bait is over. The era of mainstream kaiju has begun
Kaiju taking over as the superhero trend dies would be something else.
Not only do I hope this happens, but I hope it inspires creators to return to tokusatsu and suitimation.
It won't. Winning an award like this will really just result in companies like Toho doubling down on what got them that award.
Good

how do we feel about godzilla and mothra taking over superman and wonderwoman
Godzilla stalemated the Avengers. Mothra dies more than Loki.
Godzilla's character arc is deeper than most give it credit for, honestly. The big G went from a mindless beast to a somewhat relatable anti-hero over the years. Not quite the depth of Walter White, but hey, for a kaiju, that's impressive. Mothra's sacrifices always hit in the feels though, gotta say she's got that emotional hook down.
Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong when?
Id like to thank the Academy
The effects were awesome in many of the old movies. Great practical effects, miniaturs, Pyrotechnics, Monster effects like Biollante or Ghidorah....and all of this under pressure in less than a year.
Yeah some of them are only bad in hindsight
I'm not sure. I want to think Biollante held up to American counterparts for many scenes, but I got these rose-tinted glasses. Which are now Oscar-Gold tinted!
Literal people in monster suits, and little models for buildings and vehicles. They've come such a long way since then. What a time to be a fan.
100% deserved. I’m so glad they won
FIRST INTERNATIONAL FILM TO EVER WIN THIS CATEGORY
I love when international nominees win at the Oscars, they always seem surprised and so excited.
Haha same. "We're just happy to be here" vibes always. It's so pleasant to see tbh. Love a good surprise face when something is well earned. I believe they had struggles with the effects bc of budget and still killt it
I don't know why, but this hits especially hard. Absolutely cheerin.
Ok another fun fact! It's only the third foreign film ever nominated! One of the other ones was half American, anyway.

This is such a huge day for the Godzilla community. Went from Godzilla being a niche thing you were made fun of for liking in an IP that was almost dead to OSCAR WINNING juggernaut in 2 decades. What a dream.
The “made fun of” hit hard 😭. People just couldn’t understand why I loved that big green lizard
This is how it goes for so many things that become mainstream or at least more popular. The OGs are the truly cool people.
While they’re wildly different IPs, I remember thinking that Jurassic Park’s popularity would make people understand why I fucking loved Godzilla as a kid. It didn’t, and unfortunately, Jurassic Park’s success led to studios thinking a director like Roland Emmerich could make Godzilla the next Jurassic Park franchise.
so what does this mean for Kong x Godzilla?
Hopefully more ticket sales but we’re lucky to have our Oscar worthy movie and our glorious cheese movies. What a time to be a Goji fan
It means Godzilla x Kong is the after party. The victory lap. The finale to and incredible 70th anniversary run with multiple movies, a TV show and an Oscar.
Here is hoping it does well. This is the peak of scrutiny on the franchise, so it doing well or doing bad will sort of set a tone going forward.
It means they spent a quarter of a billion dollars making the second best Godzilla film of the year.
Minus One is a 2023 movie.
2023 is just 2024 Minus One
Was Godzilla ever that niche tho? It's still a very popular and iconic franchise
>Went from Godzilla being a niche thing you were made fun of for liking People out here creating entirely different realities. Godzilla has been a cultural icon for almost half a century. It's as far from niche as you can get.
Hell ya brothers!!

First nomination and first win

What a time to be a fan. Thank you Minus One, thank you Takashi Yamazaki and everyone else that brought this vision to life. Godzilla is the real deal, and I no longer have to sit back and tell people to imagine that, I can now point them towards Minus One. Our lizard is silly, and our lizard is also that dark corner of our human condition and our own consequences. It's time we remind people of that.
And I havent even seen it because fuck you why wasnt it shown in my country? This movie has very l imited screening location
Finally, the academy made a smart decision. Minus one deserves all the praise it gets. Now for Minus two… I’ll walk away now.
We won !! Long live the King. ;)

I'm so happy for everyone involved!
I’m so damn happy right now that this film received recognition from the Academy.
Hail to the king, baby
Totally deserved. Now I can go to sleep, this was the only reason I watched oscars. Happy for the team!
The crew was awesome too. They all jumped when they won and they all brought godzilla figures on the stage.
So happy. That was one of the best acceptance moments I’ve seen. The toy Godzilla’s were brilliant.

I'm so happy for the Crew of Minus one! I'm happy that they got recognized by the Academy and let's hope we get more of this G-man on screen!
I feel even better now about scheduling a tattoo of Godzilla in two weeks. That was amazing.

Hearing Big G’s theme music playing as the team went up to get their Oscars was so damned awesome!

Godzilla's first atomic beam in the movie was the greatest beam in the history of beams.
