Godzilla -1.0 Encounters with US Navy - Teaser Breakdown
412In the new teaser for "Godzilla Minus One," we get a glimpse of Godzilla's entrance into the human world, his origin, and the destruction he's already caused. It starts with a damaged battleship from World War II, hinting that it wasn't caused by human weapons. The camera goes underwater, suggesting the threat emerges from the depths.
Next, a sonar detects a massive object approaching a ship, indicating that Godzilla is sensitive to sonar sounds. The teaser reveals the US military has been aware of this aquatic creature's existence for a while.
An eerie buoy in the sea marks Godzilla's path in the Pacific, and there's a diagram showing an object's speed increasing, possibly Godzilla's speed. A damaged ship officially blamed on a torpedo was actually likely Godzilla's doing, but the military covers it up.
The teaser maps Godzilla's path from the volcanic Kazan Retto islands south of Japan to Tokyo. It shows the military tracking Godzilla but failing to contain it as it speeds toward Japan. A letter from Douglas MacArthur warns the Japanese Prime Minister of the impending threat, and it ends with a photo of Godzilla's spiky dorsal plates breaking the waves. The full trailer is coming soon.
