Description
"Perhaps no other character in film is as beloved by American audiences as Godzilla. Since he made his first appearance on the silver screen in 1954, Godzilla has been one of cinema's most enduring and popular characters, and with a total of twenty-eight films under his massive belt [not including the two American reboots], he's also the star of the longest-running franchise in motion-picture history. From his home base in Japan, where the legendary Toho Pictures first put him on the map, Godzilla has gone on to become an international phenomenon-a movie monster unrivaled both is size as well as universal appeal.
Godzilla FAQ is a broad and varied exploration of the monumental, fire-breathing radioactive lizard that has roared his way into our hearts over a sixty-year reign of terror. More than more than just a movie monster, Godzilla has become a pop-culture avatar, pervading our consciousness as a few fictional creations have. Godzilla FAQ takes readers on a headlong dive into the depths of this unstoppable cinematic force of nature, offering a comprehensive rundown of every Godzilla film ever made, in-depth biographies of major players in the franchise's history, and enough raw information to rebuild a ravaged Tokyo. Godzilla FAQ is a must-read for cinema fans, lizard lovers, and pop-culture friends of all ages!"
