The Every Movie Ever! Podcast Godzilla (1998): Yet Another American Crime Upon Japanese Culture
This week, Ben and Rob dive headfirst into the radioactive rubble of Roland Emmerich’s Godzilla (1998); the overblown, rain-soaked, fish-filled blockbuster that nearly killed the King of the Monsters. Starring Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno, Maria Pitillo, and Hank Azaria, this was Hollywood’s first crack at bringing ‘Godzilla’ to the West… and oh boy, did it go through development hell.
We talk storylines that make no sense, studio interference that redefined excess, and the moment Toho themselves declared this version of Godzilla “not actually Godzilla.” But is it really as bad as legend claims? Could this misunderstood monster movie actually be thebestGodzilla ever made?
