Shin Godzilla
It’s Godzilla! But for once, people aren’t screaming and running away, but cheering and drawing near.
If you’ve ever wanted to zip-line through the King of the Monsters or save Japan from one of his rampages, this is your new happiest place on earth.
New VR Zone attraction lets you take on Godzilla in an attack chopper… Good luck with that.
Get excited with us with these real-time thoughts about Shin Godzilla as viewers celebrate its debut on Japanese television.
Shin Godzilla is the heaviest kaiju movie in years, but there are still laughs to be found if you know where to look.
After hearing about it last week, you bet we went to check out Japan’s gigantic straw Godzilla for ourselves, and it’s way more imposing than we’d anticipated.
Godzilla is known for making sudden appearances in Tokyo, but nobody at all expected him to show up here.
