Hi! First time poster, lifelong fan. I loved this movie!!!

Seriously, I grew up watching Godzilla thanks to my uncle taking me to the movies when growing up. This movie was very special in the long list of Godzilla movies. I think of it as a love story, a redemption story, a fighting your inner demon's story and it also stared a large lizard. I do not prefer the "bad" Godzilla story line, I favor the King of the monsters fighting to maintain a natural balance, but it really worked in this movie. For the first time I actually wanted them to succeed in taking him down. The multiple references to the very first film were great. It was very Japanese; loved. It was cheesy; loved. It had the happy ending; loved. My kids have fully embraced my love of Japan and have even grown it more. It was a great family event.

Godzilla Minus One Reportedly Cost $10 Million at Most

Quote

According to these new reports from Japan, Godzilla Minus One reportedly cost 1.5 billion yen which is about $10 million USD. Previously, rumors suggested the movie cost $15 million to make, and that is still very cheap for a blockbuster. Director Takashi Yamazaki denied these reports once the movie went stateside as he revealed Godzilla Minus One didn't even cost that much. So obviously, the team at Toho was incredibly thrifty when making this film.

 

With $100 million banked at the box office, Godzilla Minus One is one of the highest-earning Japanese films to screen in the United States. The movie's complex themes and stunning action have helped put Godzilla at the forefront of film. So if you have not seen Godzilla Minus One, we can only suggest you head to a theater ASAP while screenings are still available!

There is a Japan 'Godzilla Minus One' A1 size movie poster (not the 'Godzilla Minus 1 Minus Color' one-sheet in your pic) reseller exoticoriginals taking pre-orders on legit (not knock-off) pairs of the 2 different posters on Instagram (IG) at what he says is a 'reasonable' retail price for best fantasy/sci-fi movie of 2023.
