R.I.P Godzilla

[Unkotare]

The original Godzilla passed away recently, at the age of 88. A real cinema icon.



Haruo Nakajima, actor who played original Godzilla, dies at 88

Saw that.

another unknown actor (?) that created an icon

Thousands of screaming Japanese can now rest easy.

Yeah sorry to see all these actors from the golden age die off. Even though no one has ever seen this guy, or perhaps doesn't know his name or what he looks like, he's like the guy in R2D2, still a notable role.

I'm sorry....doesn't really impress me

A tribute to Godzilla and a great tune too.

I understand the artistry of some of the people who man these costumes and make the creature appear lifelike, sympathetic or menacing

In Star Wars, I thought the guy doing Chewbacca was very good........I was not impressed with either Darth Vader or R2D2

I always thought Godzilla was laughable. An obvious guy in a lizard suit stumbling around stepping on fake buildings

Awww, Mecha-Kong is gonna cry.
