Short Godzilla Film Being Made For Eiji Tsuburaya Museum
Yes you read the title correctly. The film in question (most likely a short one) is one that'll actually use traditional tokusatsu effects and a new suit based on the ShodaiGoji one:

Re: Toho Making New Godzilla Film For 2019
It's not a full film and changing the title of the thread would probably be a good idea to not confuse people.
It's a short film for an Eiji Tsuburaya museum opening up on January 11th.

Still really cool nonetheless, hoping this makes its way online in some form. If this is the last time we'll ever see an official practical Godzilla, it's kinda cool that it's ShodaiGoji.

Re: Toho Making New Godzilla Film For 2019
Oh, absolutely. This is wonderful, especially considering the city Godzilla's destroying happens to also be the birthplace of Eiji Tsuburaya.KillCrites wrote:Still really cool nonetheless, hoping this makes its way online in some form.

As far as an online release, I'm honestly really skeptical. Japanese museums are notorious for their "no recording" policies with cool stuff like this (Shin animatronic, anyone?).

It is really cool. Some footage of the making is on reddit. I love seeing this suit with masers and other 1985 looking effects.

This is a surprise but it sounds great. I'm just glad we have a 54 suit again. Was always sad they never saved it.
RIP Evan.

Now this, this is art.
I would love to see the full footage of this, hopefully Toho lets them release it someday.

God I hope this gets some sort of release or at least leak. I know that the chances are next to nil, but, dear God, I think I'm in love.

Re: Short Godzilla Film Being Made For Eiji Tsuburaya Museum
This..... is just beautiful. The fact that this shows Godzilla destroying the birthplace of Eiji Tsuburaya, while looking like he did in 1954 and with practical effects is just.... wow. I hope we get to see at least some kind of leak to see this short film, it would be amazing to watch!
Its been a longtime, oh, ShodaiGoji.

I wonder how long it’ll be, and if it’s a temporary attraction at the museum. If it’s 22+ mins I could easily see a small digital release or physical release in japan. if we get lucky, it could be just be uploaded to Toho’s YouTube once they’ve mailed it enough.

Possibly a bonus on a Japanese Blu-Ray re-release to cash in on KOTM.LSD Jellyfish wrote:I wonder how long it’ll be, and if it’s a temporary attraction at the museum.

It’s a shame cause I’m leaving Tokyo on Jan 6th(I have fucking jury duty on the 7th). If it’s still playing next year when I move to Japan (most likely), I’ll be sure to visit the museum and report back if no one does already.

If they did it would be a blob of rotten materials that reeks of sweat. Nothing they could have done if they tried.SoggyNoodles2016 wrote:---Was always sad they never saved it.
From the footage i've seen so far it looks pretty legit. Glad to see Toho bust out the ol' practical effects again.

There is something cool about old suits being remade. It just sorta shows that if things are made with better material in a modern era they can still hold up and look good. Would kill for an updated Angurius.

Re: Short Godzilla Film Being Made For Eiji Tsuburaya Museum
I honestly got a little emotional watching the footage on reddit. Seeing 54' again, the one who started it all... Ugh, man it hit me right in the feels. Even if it is just a short little thing, it's absolutely beautiful, nonetheless. How I wish I could visit Japan when this thing releases.

Re: Short Godzilla Film Being Made For Eiji Tsuburaya Museum
This looks so awesome! No CGI can ever replace the suitmation-style effects! (Sorry, just my opinion)
To see the old Showa Godzilla in color and in a modern environment makes me feel good! I absolutely have to see the final product!
A great appetizer for future TOHO kaiju eiga to come after 2020.
Love it. Thank you for this find!
