Unsurprisingly, there will be another GFES this year, held online.
https://godzilla.store/gfes/2021/
Apparently, the first item on the list, is a special effects short film, directed by 中川和博! I believe this is by the same guy that directed that other one with the revamped 54 suit. The guy refers to it as a “mini-movie”. I have to wonder, if it’ll be 2 mins, or 10 minutes? Will another monster return?

That suit actually looks fantastic!.. save for the mouth not moving.
A guy who randomly stumbled upon this place one day, invested much too much time into it, and now appears to be stuck here for all eternity..and strangely enough, i do not regret it!

With "that other one with the revamped 54 suit" do you mean that coffee commercial? It's the only video I remember seeing with that suit to date, which is a shame because it's darn nice and deserves more use - hopefully it will see it. If you were referring to something else I missed I'd love to know about it!LSD Jellyfish wrote: ↑Thu Sep 16, 2021 3:55 amApparently, the first item on the list, is a special effects short film, directed by 中川和博!

I don't think another monster will show, it's a mini-movie so I imagine the budget was such that remaking the Heisei suit was as much as they could do suit-wise. Think you'd need a full movie or show to justify more than one monster suit.
It looks great, love what little we see of the city destruction.You can see a brief preview of it at 1:15:

Yeah, the open mouth is very noticeable here. Guess they didn't have the budget for the mechanical bits that make the mouth open and close?
I unapologetically, wholeheartedly, and without a doubt hate Godzilla vs Kong.

Perfect timing, here's the short from last year. If there'll be a "sequel" to this, hope it's just as fun!

^They didn’t bother to make the suit’s jaws move.

Did Toho manage to preserve the suit? Wonder what it's being used for now.Jetty_Jags wrote: ↑Fri Sep 17, 2021 9:35 amI think he's talking about the one for the Eiji Tsuburaya museum,Vakanai wrote: ↑Thu Sep 16, 2021 7:02 pm
