Happy Godzilla Day!
In 1954 on November the 3rd, Gojira made its debut in Japanese cinemas and changed the world forever. No, really! Imagine a world where we don't have Godzilla!
Here in 2025, we're celebrating the 71st anniversary of Goji's debut, which Toho Studios now does each year by making announcements about what the year will bring.
Most important, Godzilla Minus One, one of my favorite movies of the past decade (Godzilla or otherwise) is getting a sequel, Godzilla Minus Zero. Because Japan loves a good word problem, I guess.
No word on what will be in the new movie, but I saw a rumor that they're filming outside of Japan, which is kind of exciting. No idea where, as the planet is large. Bigger than Cleveland, even.
They also announced:
- An Augmented Reality Game
- A few toylines
- A bunch of stuff at the shop at Godzilla.com
I'm sure there's more, but I don't speak a word of Japanese and the Godzilla fansites are always weird and spotty.
Mostly, though, today is the day to celebrate a guy who has been my pal since I first knew anything about anything, and that's Godzilla. Long may he stomp around and skreeeeeonk at everyone.
