Officially, Toho splits up the Eras as:

Showa Era - 1954-1975
Heisei Era - 1984-1995
Millennium Era - 1999-2004
Reiwa Era - 2016-Present
Hollywood Era or American - TriStar & Legendary Pictures

maybe shimo for my guess

(credits to deviantart for letting me use this)

i consider some parts of an era they're own era like reiwa has godzilla earth so i guess godzilla anime could have its own era

I'm pretty sure 1954-1956 is considered part of the Showa era.

"Climate change? Really!"

Have to capture new fans. Much of the original base are old, dying and very demanding. ( Dr Who springs to mind... and the Rolling Stones are going to tour arena size again...but most ancient rock bands are casino/lounge acts. )

Alien is trending towards a lounge act.

I watched my first Godzilla movies growing up near Detroit in the 1960s. I think I fell in love because at my young age I loved the action and excitement of the movies, but also loved they gave him a personality in some of the movies, as in he could be a protector too. I even enjoyed the silliness of some of the movies like “Son of Godzilla.”

The Deacon is my favorite alien in Prometheus despite not getting much screen time 

I can't wait for this new movie to come out

It deserves it

12/05/2023:
Godzilla Minus One finished its 5th weekend with 3.82 Billion Yen (~$25.9 Million). Its attendance as of the weekend sits at 2.48 Million--tied with Son of Godzilla. It has now officially beaten the attendance totals of every Champion Festival Showa movie, and every Millennium Series and Monsterverse movie.

It's expected to surpass 4 Billion Yen this coming weekend.

It opened in the U.S. to $11 Million (roughly 1.6 Billion Yen). It broke U.S. records, becoming the second-biggest opening for a foreign film and the #1 highest opening for a Japanese film in the U.S. Its worldwide gross after the weekend sits at 5.42 Billion Yen (~$36.8 Million.) (Godzilla Minus One Official Twitter, Collider)

Charts updated.

12/4/2023:
Late report covering weekend #4: It dropped to #2 for the first time with 3.458 Billion Yen. (~$23.5 Million) I estimated attendance was 2.23 Million. With that it tied the total attendance of the 2014 movie, surpassing the rest of the Monsterverse movies, the Champion Festival Showa movies and all of the Millennium movies--save for GMK.

Its gross after 24 days make it the 3rd h giant monster/kaiju-tokusatsu-related film of the last 11 years and climbing.

GUYS THIS MOVIE IS STELLAR!!
LIKE ACTUALLY THE BEST THING EVER LIKE WTF?!?

maybe this is blasphemy but I think this is better than the og

Any chance you know where in Japan this is from?

I'm disappointed they showed SO much in the trailer. Comparing the marketing for GxK to 10 years ago with Godzilla (2014), I honestly prefer the trailers for G14. After watching Godzilla Minus One last night as well, I much prefer the gritty / dark atmosphere of those movies to the CGI-fest Monster Mash of the recent Monsterverse installments. I'm still stoked for GxK but I have a feeling I'll still prefer G14 and Minus One to it when it finally comes out.

@SquashDash I hope you have a decent speaker setup at least! I just saw it in IMAX last night and I will say - easily the best Godzilla film to date. I highly recommend seeing it.

I LOOOOVE IT!!!

Lol. Ok.

I would love to have a Godzilla themed road trip, but unfortunately my family and I are super busy this week and don't have the time to take one. I'll just have to wait like I did with Shin Godzilla. 

Thankfully my local IMAX is playing it, I plan to see it tonight or tomorrow! Hearing nothing but good things.

@SquashDash, That's so frustrating you'd have to travel 3 hours... If you could find the time could make a fun Godzilla themed road trip out of it.

Unfortunately the closest theater that's playing it is over 3 hours away and I don't have time to travel to go see it... 

Hopefully the Blu Ray is released soon.

Should have qualified "Japanese Godzillas", but yes, I think even more so than the MonsterVerse version. He is something in this.

Super7 has revealed their next Godzilla figure will be MinusGoji. based off the cg model of Minus, a first for the Godzilla ULTIMATES! line, it will be released in september 2024 and retail for $84.99

Why is he so daddy?

Wait wasn't the Monsterverse Godzilla expressive?

I don't trust rotten tomato, its a Disney lapdog

Eh what?

Why is he so daddy?

 Tried to edit my post, but couldn't. I also want to add, it is amazingly emotional.

Saw this last night. Get out and see this in a theater!! It was amazing. I can't gush enough about this movie. I've never made it a secret that my favorites are G '54 and Mothra Vs. Godzilla '64. For me, this is right up there with them, after one viewing. It blows everything else out of the water. It has a great human drama with characters that I liked, cared about and didn't want to see hurt. Godzilla is what he what he should be in this (at least for me). He is in four impactful sequences. I've read reviews where they said he's not in it a lot. Let me tell you when he is in it, he is front and center. There's no cutting away, no teases. He is BAD! He's not an anti-hero, he doesn't dance, fly, talk. He is angry and he wants to take out his wrath on anyone and everyone. He's one of the more expressive and reactive Godzillas we've seen in quite some time. GO SEE IT!

Climate change? Really! Didn't Peter Weyland nipped that in the bud during the mid-21st century with his terraforming plants?

The thing is Synths were only threat due to having loyalty to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation as we see with Ash and to an extent with David. Although David was a unique case, although he was an early model but he was hand-picked by Peter Weyland so maybe this particular David was a modified David 8. 

Bishop was loyal to the Marines and Call was a highly advanced Synthetic (Too be honest I think the whole A.I. is a threat started with Alien Resurrection, because in Joss Weadon works he always makes the Synthetic the bad guy or a threatening force)

This meta-human plot doesn't make any sense. Especially this early in the ALIEN timeline! Synthetics maybe. To plot so far sounds like a rehash of Caprica. Also I'm against having xenomorphs (I don't count David's praetomorph as a true xenomorph) on Earth prior to their discovery on LV-426.

Looks like a Monsterverse take on the Millennium Godzilla

Update: The number of reviews have increased to 72, with 65 fresh and 7 rotten, which should put the percentage at 90%, yet no changes to the Tomatometer...
