In keeping up with the latest releases coming to a cinema near you, it seems a brand new rendition of the nuclearized iguana (or is it lizard?) featuring none other than Heisenberg himself, Bryan Cranston, will hit the silver screen this year.
Kids around the globe, of this and past generations, will flock to the movie's inescapably poor quality for one of the richest monster tales in all of film.
Maybe King Kong was up there, but then came a movie where Godzilla and Kong fought.
'Zilla won, of course.
The iconic iguana and/or lizard from the island of monsters had the more rcognizable sound, too--one that most could decipher from a mile away.
The biggest roar in movies, Godzilla's emblematic scream of discontent reverberated through the franchise since the first feature film (Gojira, produced by Toho, directed by Ishirō Honda and featuring special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya) was released in 1954.
As it turns out, though, Zilla's clarion was created via simple machine: a resin-covered glove and loosened double-bass strings, slowed down to a teaming yell.
Keep your digitized iguana then, Mr. White.
As CGI and the many other updates added to Godzilla 2014 cheapen the monster's ineffable allure, we'll stick with the lizard from the 1950s.
