Clip From GODZILLA MINUS ONE/MINUS COLOR Clip Features Atomic Devastation
The black-and-white version of Godzilla Minus One is currently in theaters, and it will end its theatrical run on February 1st. If you haven’t watched it yet, you still have time! To give you a little taste of what the film offers, here’s a clip that was released by Toho for Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color showing off Godzilla's horrific atomic blast breath in action!
Takashi Yamazaki, director, writer, and VFX supervisor said in a statement: “I was very happy that the North American audience embraced Godzilla Minus One, and now I am very pleased to be able to release a black-and-white version for North America as well. Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color will bring a new and visceral experience to audiences.”
The director has been working on this remaster for a long time as a cut-by-cut production instead of just making it monochrome for the sake of it. The filmmaker previously said:
"We are now able to announce Godzilla-1.0/C, which we have been working on for a long time. Rather than just making it monochrome, it is a cut by cut, I had them make adjustments while making full use of various mattes, as if they were creating a new movie. What I was aiming for was a style that looked like it was taken by masters of monochrome photography. We were able to unearth the texture of the skin and the details of the scenery that were hidden in the photographed data. Then, a frightening Godzilla, just like the one in the documentary, appeared. By eliminating color, a new sense of reality emerges. Please live and resist further fear at the theater."
The movie is set in Japan 1945-1947. “After the war, Japan has been reduced to zero. Godzilla appears and plunges the country into a negative state. Against the most desperate situation in the history of Japan, how — and with whom — will Japan stand up to it?”
Go experience Godzilla Minus One in a whole new way!
