Godzilla in popular culture

	This article is a work in progress. Please help in the creation of this article by expanding or improving it.

As an enduring and iconic symbol of post-World War II Japanese cinematic history, Godzilla is frequently referenced and parodied in popular culture. Godzilla and other icons of the kaiju genre have appeared in a variety of mediums ranging from cartoons, films, literature, television series, comics and video games. Often it is Godzilla's name, his design and/or the style of his films (e.g., where he demolishes cities) that is parodied the most. Godzilla's name is also often referenced by attaching the suffix "-zilla" to a word and/or phrase in order to denote size or monstrous / destructive behavior. The following is a list of such references, organized in alphabetical order. While this page aims to be comprehensive, due to the broad subject matter, it is always ever-growing.

The good character re-attacks, but it fails and is defeated.

		"Kentucky Kaiju"	2018/08/04	A poster for "Kentucky Kaiju" references Godzilla 2000: Millennium’s tagline, "If you can’t take the heat, run". Fred buys a Kentucky Kaiju animatronic which portrays the monster in its films much like Godzilla was portrayed with suitmation. Baymax mentions that it was a mutant lizard like Godzilla was. Fred then builds a robot version of Kentucky Kaiju, making it the robotic counterpart of the monster just as Mechagodzilla is Godzilla's mechanical counterpart. Later on, when it is hijacked by Noodle Burger Boy, its eyes glow red and it goes berserk much like Kiryu did in Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla, where it rampages in San Fransokyo. It also breathes fire much like the Marvel Comics and Hanna-Barbera Godzillas did. Hiro lures it to the power lines of a railroad track, mirroring two scenes in Godzilla where Godzilla both destroys railroad tracks and confronts electrical towers; however, unlike Godzilla who endured the towers' electricity, the Kentucky Kaiju robot is not able to endure the power lines, causing it to short circuit and thus defeating it.
		"Rivalry Week"	2018/08/11	Fred’s Godzilla-like costume from the film returns. Fred also mentions that the San Fransokyo Art Institute mascot, Sabatini the Sea Snail, is a rip-off of his costume, making it a rival monster like Gamera is to Godzilla.

When he transforms, he uses either the Showa Godzilla's roar or the Tristar Godzillla's roar.
		"Supersonic Sue"	2019/05/16	When Fred and Mole plan on seeing a marathon of all seven Kentucky Kaiju films, Fred mentions the final film being titled "Son of Kaiju", a reference to Son of Godzilla, which likely features a son of Kentucky Kaiju that is likely based on Minilla. Mole described it as a "surprisingly emotional end to the whole saga". Fred and Mole watch "Son of Kaiju", which was shown as Kentucky Kaiju holds his son while going out to sea and looking at one of the human characters as they both nod at each other, then Kentucky Kaiju leaves with his son, after which the film ends.
		"Lie Detector"	2019/05/23	Fred wears a Kentucky Kaiju costume as part of a monster training exercise for Big Hero 6 to prepare for possible monster attacks.

Noodle Burger Boy makes copies of himself to distract Big Hero 6 so that he can hijack it again for his sister, Trina. Big Hero 6 tricks Noodle Burger Boy by asking him for help on how to finish Hiro’s story (which he had been struggling to do throughout the entire episode). This lasts long enough to defeat his copies and have Hiro and Baymax sneak into the control room of the robot in order to shoot rockets, which makes Noodle Burger Boy lose control and causes it to fall down.

		"Fred the Fugitive"	2020/01/18	During montages of Fred attempting to convince Big Hero 6 to go on patrol by making homemade fake threats, one of these threats includes Mini-Max in a Kentucky Kaiju suit attacking a city background, referencing the suitmation used in Japanese giant monster films; however, the background falls down and reveals that it is a trick.
		"Legacies"	2020/02/08	When Trina is powering up the Buddy Guardians in order to generate enough heat to destroy the city, during the sequence a poster of a monster film is shown with a monster on it that bears a striking resemblance to the Monsterverse Godzilla, only with smaller dorsal fins.
		"Mayor for a Day"	2020/09/28	During a vision sequence by Fred explaining why traveling by kaiju would be awesome, in the sequence a Kentucky Kaiju-based bus is battling Richardson Mole's own kaiju bus.

It takes place in Tokyo, Japan in the year 1956 at Acmeshita Labs (a play on words of Acme Labs, Pinky and the Brain's home and base of operations in this TV series). In order to accomplish their latest plan to take over the world, Brain plans to use a newly-invented shrinking ray in the laboratory which he converts into an enlarging ray in order to turn Pinky (dressed up in a costume as "Gollyzilla") and himself (using the name "Brainodo") into giants so that "Gollyzilla" can go on a rampage through the city and "Brainodo" can save Japan, after which Brain expects that the Japanese people will thank him for saving them and their country by making him their ruler; however, the real Gollyzilla appears as well and hilarity ensues from this point on. In the end, the enlarging ray is eventually damaged and then goes haywire as a result, shooting out rays in all directions all at once and enlarging anything and everything around it (including Earth itself) so that the lab mice, even though they are still giants, are small once more in comparison to everything else around them; thus, the plan is defeated yet again. There are also a number of cutaways featuring a nameless Raymond Burr stand-in who only says "Yes, I see" several times throughout the episode (in the last of these, the Burr stand-in is then hit by the enlarging ray before he can finish his statement and is also turned into a giant, after which he enters into the story, fights Gollyzilla and then picks up the kaiju and throws him into the enlarging ray, causing both the aforementioned damage to it and it going haywire as a result). In addition, throughout the entire episode all of the human characters' lines in it (except for the Burr stand-in's) are out of sync, a parody of a common trope in Japanese giant monster films.

When Liz says, with a sly look on her face, that she hopes that the one about Godzilla was a different dream, Jon, with a sly look on his face, says "Then let's say it was.", after which Liz gets a shocked look on her face and Garfield turns around, saying "I'll be leaving the room now."

In it, Mothra tries to return a sweater that has holes in it to the store, claiming that she found them after bringing it home. The clerk does not believe her, a joke based on the real-life insect named the common clothes moth (Tineola bisselliella) being an insect of which the larval (caterpillar) stage feeds by eating holes in articles of clothing that are mostly made of wool such as sweaters (although it will eat other natural fibers as well, it particularly eats wool).

	New Avengers (vol. 4)	#9 ("Up From the Depths")	2016/04/06	U.S. Military Corporal Todd Ziller's name is an obvious pun on Godzilla. Todd Ziller is the test subject in Project: Troubleshooter (which attempted to recreate the Super-Soldier Serum by including Gamma enhancements, Mutant Growth Hormone, Pym Particles, and the Connors Formula), and is infused with what would later be known as the Kaiju Formula, which mutates him into a giant Godzilla-like monster that is given the name of the "American Kaiju." The title of the issue is a reference to the opening line of the Hanna Barbera Godzilla animated TV series' opening theme song, which became a common phrase that was associated with Godzilla.
	Planetary	#2	1999/03/17	The issue's story, "Island", is a clear homage to kaiju films: an infamous Japanese writer visits the mysterious Island Zero, where he discovers the carcasses of giant prehistoric monsters. Jakita, a member of the group Planetary, explains that after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, giant monsters began to populate the island, but were thought wiped out by the mid-1970s.

	Reborn As A Monster	various chapters	2023/04/19	In this Chinese manhua the main character, Lin Yuan, ends up being reincarnated as a kaiju with a striking resemblance to Godzilla. In a flashback it is revealed that his father gave him a Godzilla figure (modeled off of the version of Godzilla from Godzilla Final Wars) for his birthday, but then a group of bullies stole it and tossed it onto the street. Lin is forced to retrieve it, after which he is hit by a truck which sends both him and the Godzilla toy figure flying through the air, after which he dies alongside the toy figure. His reincarnated form and its evolutions are strikingly similar to the Monsterverse version of Godzilla and his "Burst Breath" is similar to Godzilla's atomic breath. He later fights a giant ape, mirroring the films King Kong vs. Godzilla and Godzilla vs. Kong, which is later revealed to be a female ape named Miss Ape. Miss Ape fights small lizards that plagued her island, similar to Kong fighting the Skullcrawlers that plagued Skull Island in Kong: Skull Island. When Lin unlocks a shop option, a robot monster named Titanium Armor can be selected to buy, referring to Mechagodzilla. The main antagonist, the Dead Reptile King, has three heads like King Ghidorah. Later on, Lin unlocks a Lava form that references Burning Godzilla.

	Sonic Super Special	#12	2000/01/19	The second story of the comic, titled "Giant Robotno," is a clear parody of the Godzilla series. In it, Sonic finds himself in an alternate dimension where his various friends have been mutated into giant monsters by Chaotomic Energy, referencing the role of atomic/nuclear energy in the origin of many Godzilla kaiju. The giant monsters inhabit the remote Knothole Island, a clear reference to Monster Island. Sonic pilots a giant robot to battle the monsters, a common trope of kaiju media.
	Steven Universe	#6	2017/07/12	The issue's cover is a homage to the original 1954 film Godzilla's poster, with the fusion Sugilite taking Godzilla's place and Steven and Pearl copying Hideto Ogata and Emiko Yamane's positions in it.

Lawsuits by Toho

Toho enforces its rights to the Godzilla character and trademark very strictly.

• Toho forced Adler Fels Winery of Napa Valley to dispose of an undisclosed amount of wine for using the Godzilla image without their permission.
• Toho sued U.S. rapper Pharoahe Monch for the unauthorizied sampling of the opening notes of Akira Ifukube's "Godzilla's Theme" from Mothra vs. Godzilla on their song "Simon Says".
• Toho sent a cease and desist order to Marvel Comics after they included a robot Godzilla which too closely resembled the genuine article on the cover of The Amazing Spider-Man #413, forcing them to change the front cover's artwork on all future reprints of the issue (see Comics above for a picture of the original cover).
• Toho sued the submarine sandwich company Subway for allegedly infringing on their copyrights on Godzilla. Subway released an advertisement that was part of their "Five Dollar Footlong" series where a giant green reptilian monster attacks a city in it.
• Toho sued NOLA Brewing over their "MechaHopzilla" beer line, which used a character that was very similar to Mechagodzilla.
• Toho sued Voltage Pictures over their film Colossal, which was described by the filmmakers as a "cross between Godzilla and Being John Malkovich." Toho claimed that not only did the filmmakers frequently reference Godzilla when discussing their film, even calling it "a Godzilla film" in interviews, but blatantly used the design and characteristics of Godzilla in the marketing for the film.
