Ah, spring is in the air, so let’s jump ahead about a decade from our last riveting issue of “Godzilla Movie Poster” and visit Son of Godzilla. This is the heart-wrenching 1967 coming-of-age tale about an illegitimate child trying to build a relationship with his giant, radioactive father. Minilla will do anything to win his daddy’s approval, but will Godzilla even acknowledge his abandoned love-child?
Who cares! This movie blows chunks. Actually, I’ve never seen it, but really, who wants to see a family drama when you could be watching Ninja Terminators? And besides, we both know that you’re only here to see the art of Son of Godzilla anyway. Well, it’s after the jump, ese.

This is going to kick off something of a miniseries that will last until it’s finished. Actually, it might not even last that long…it depends on how lazy I am.
Now, you probably realize that Godzilla means a lot to us here at Gimorozo; but, did you know that there is a great artform revolving around the big G? Of course, I’m talking about his movie posters. For each part of this series, we will compare three different posters for the exact same movie and see what three very different countries do to market the King of the Monsters (In case you’re wondering, those three countries are Japan, USA, and Poland).
Let’s start at the beginning. 1954 marked the debut of Gojira in Japanese theaters. It is a cautionary tale about nuclear warfare from a country still reeling from the devastation of the only nuclear attacks in history (so far…my money’s on Pakistan making the next big move).

“I am a success today because I had a giant space-turtle who believed in me and I didn’t have the heart to let him down.” -President Abraham Lincoln.
Abraham Lincoln is the first Kenny in recorded history. Lincoln met Gamera at the age of 11 while he was still living in Illinois. Years later, President Lincoln would call on his friend to help him. Gamera was quite instrumental in the North’s campaign against the Confederacy during the American Civil War. Most historians agree that without Gamera’s help, the South would have succeeded in seceding.
