Godzilla: Short introspections on the movies series.

Godzilla: Short introspective notes.


Disclaimer: This is just a test of my writing skills on certain aspects of the Godzilla series and such that I choose from the films. All things Godzilla related belong to Toho Studios of Japan (though I wish I was part of the production staff so I can present some ideas, not that they’re doing as best as they can under the circumstances).

The first two chapters will deal with the American versions of Godzilla 1954 and 1985 from the point of view of Steve Martin. Then I’ll focus on some of the battle scenes from people on the ground (one idea already is the Frontier Missile Attack from the American version of Godzilla vs. Mothra and then we’ll see what happens). I tried to do this the best I could but it’s been a few years since I watched the film and like I said, this is just a test of my writing skills on a familiar subject so please read and review.

The airport was busy trying to get itself back to normal as well as they could be considering that at few days ago, the city was a killing zone and if one looked out at the windows, the city still was in ashes and rubble with emergency and construction teams trying to repair the damage as best they can.

Steve Martin looked out at the sight for perhaps the hundredth time as he waited to board the plane that would take him back to the United States. As he looked out at the ruins and smoke, he suddenly thought back to all the fields of battle he traveled to as a reporter during World War II and the horror that he personally witnessed a few days ago. The sight of one of the greatest cities on Earth enveloped in flame and above it all, a large dark shadow of a dinosaur-like creature with dorsal fins on its back that glowed when the creature inflicted the most painful death to man in that time still chilled him even though the monster was supposedly dead.

That brought another headache and harsh pain in his chest as he relieved harrowing moments of nearly facing death, smelling it and witnessing the death of his old college friend Dr. Serizawa, who killed the beast with a weapon that was far more destructive than the atomic bombs the United States used on Japan. He remembered his own reaction when he saw the Oxygen Destroyer used on the monster in which both the beast and a great man both departed this world. However as he stepped on the plane, he had begun to have second thoughts and wondered that the monster was the only one of its kind or else there could be others. He admitted to himself that he started to have the “illnessâ€
