Added your latest update to the homepage GMan! Thanks for the continued accurate reporting!

01/10/2024:
Godzilla Minus One's 10th weekend sees it still in the top 10. It's total gross after weekend 10 is 5.14 Billion Yen. Its attendance is 3.34 million--It should pass Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla's attendance before the end of the week. (Eiga Ranking) The winter break boost is very much over, but the black and white version, -0.1/C, should provide a minor boost in awareness, especially given 4DX showings are very popular.

It is currently the second film in the franchise to break 5 Billion Yen. And having surpassed The Return of Godzilla attendance, is now the 14th most attended film in the franchise.

It's also worth noting Box Office Mojo has stopped reporting the Japanese gross. They last reported on Godzilla Minus One's Japanese numbers Christmas weekend and are currently $3.1 million behind the Japanese total, based on current exchange rate numbers.

Prometheus, there's something about the head that's mysterious.

I think it is very cool. It gives a good example for godzilla fan begginers.

12/31/2023:
The 9th weekend for Godzilla Minus One saw a boost in the box office due to winter break. The gross shot to 4.86 Billion Yen (~34.5 Million) crossing an estimated attendance of 3.16 Million. (Eiga Ranking) It should pass The Return of Godzilla to become the 14th most attended film in the series soon. Despite nearly falling out of the top 10 last week, it went from #9 to #6! (Eiga Ranking)
- 7th highest-grossing 2023 film in Japan.
- 5th highest-grossing domestic 2023 film in Japan.
- 15th most attended Godzilla movie in Japan.
- 2nd highest grossing/attended kaiju film in last 13 years.

Charts Updated.

love it , lets give James Cameron a call 

first Alien poster , its stuck in my head forever,,,, and will never go away ,,lol 

Another artist I found, Matteo Sciarra makes some pretty remarkable Godzilla artwork!

Will be interesting to see how they explain her redesign & the twins' absence. 

I wonder when these will be released in the UK.

Late January maybe?

While it does look cool, I kind of hope that Gamma Goji is just a temporary power up instead of a permanent change to his design.

Interesting how Shimo's render makes him almost pearlescent, while all the toys are pure white. 

I feel mixed about how he looks. The newer designs - Mechagodzilla, Godzilla Evolved, Skar King, and now Shimo - are all imo too slim to be massive. One of the best design aspects of the 2014 Godzilla is how weighty and massive he looks - none of that sense of mass is present here. 

The way the limbs connect are unnatural and fragile looking; almost scansorial-like. I understand the structural references to lizards, but it really makes no sense for a massive Titan.

I'll wait for the final film to give a definitive judgement, but by the looks of known material, these designs aren't what I crave for.

Alien Covenant for me. And the movie has become my favorite after Alien. I hope I get another chance to see it in theater. The darkest of all.

Given they’re Playmates toys, I don’t really expect profound levels of detail and accuracy. The higher end manufacturers will surely produce more film-accurate figures.

IMO - The Kong figure is the only one that looks pretty decent.

Skar King looks nothing like trailer.  And that two-pack of Godzilla vs Shimo - the eyes on Godzilla are a horrible paint job.

What I was getting at was Thoughts_Dreams keeps saying invent a new creature to replace the xenomorphs and I was curious what can possibly replace the xenomorphs since they are synonymous with the ALIEN franchise.

If the new creature in question is biomechanical, parasitic, eyeless, head is phallically shaped it will scrutinized as a xenomorph knock off at worse or wasted potential at best.

The new alien creature can't be a simple xenomorph 2.0, we already have those with the neomorph and deacon.

actually there is conflicting evidence on climate change, well in the mankind is responsible since a lot of the computer data uses false data or news agencies are deliberately misinterpreting weather data even when the climatologist on that same broadcast is saying otherwise. 

Also not every climatologist agrees that climate change is caused by humans

pretty much all of the Alien Resurrection xenos are cloned aliens

I'm torn between which poster to vote for, so i would go for the Alien Covenant since It looks haunting

Great accolades, but I'm dumbfounded none of the lead actors were nominated! The best characters I've ever seen in a G movie. They truly stayed with me long after seeing it.

I would say he is at least a few thousand years old, because his father was around during ancient japanese times

 ¡Yo También! Amo nuestra generación.

we 

Hes about as old as your mom lmfao gottem (I have clinical depression) 

well i cant see Monsterverse reusing the same names even if its reincarnation so it could be same speices as Mosura  just going by diff name 

Btw Godzilla awakening ain’t canon no more bruh. Legacy of monsters changed it.

Wait I’m stupid, I didn’t read the whole thing

DAYUM 

Thank you for sharing this intriguing excerpt from “Alien Becoming.” The project’s do***entary style, narrated directly by David, promises a unique perspective. Glitchy footage and reconstructed past events projected on screen add an enigmatic layer to the unfolding story. I’m curious to witness how this raw form evolves into a complete work before “Alien Romulus” debuts.

Your project delves into existential questions, and I eagerly await its unfolding. May the sands of LV_233 reveal secrets beyond imagination, and may David’s journey lead us to profound revelations.

Love the Prometheus poster too, omnious and captivating. And the tagline "The search for our beginning could lead to our end" fits perfectly. 

I also like the Covenant poster. When I first saw it, I thought that David must have carved it.

@GMan - :)

Prometheus poster, by far. The ominous nature of it, the number of fan theories it sparked. I’ll never forget when the Prometheus poster first got released and everyone was like… “Wait what” hahaha, good times. I miss those days - when there was mystery in the posters and trailers.

Yeah, I may have to go for round 6.

I’m seeing minus one a third time. Also don’t go to the crazy seats they just distract you.

@Thoughts_Dreams

Alien: Resurrection had those.

@GMan - I didn't want to say it. Of course, it took Toho to get it right. I was hoping we could do something along those lines. I do like the MonsterVerse, but Minus One, another level, from everything entirely. Saw it again yesterday. Had to see it once more on a big screen.

KoldWarKid62,
It took awhile, but I feel like, in many aspects, Minus One was the movie that the 2012 trailer was trying to sell us.

Cloned aliens? I'm not sure how interesting I would find that.

Climate change is real, the first Alien movie had corporate conspiracy in it through Ash. I don't care about reactionary people complaining (screw the reactionary garbage), climate change is real and if they want to look the other way while disaster is close they can contribute to the disaster or do something about it. Do something about it for example, keep people aware of it through movies.

I'd have to agree. That trailer was actually scary and intense. It's too bad the movie we got didn't live up to what the trailer promised/inferred. I recently rewatched the 2012 Comic Con proof of concept teaser that Edwards did ahead of the movie and even though it's not an "official" trailer, it blows all the others away! THAT gives me goosebumps. I wish that movie had been made.
