This is episode 53 of The Truth Tank.

On this episode, We will be looking at the greatest movie monster of all time, starring in 38 films spanning 70 years, the one and only Godzilla.. We will take a look at the latest instalment of the franchise Toho Studios Godzilla: Minus One. Diving into the themes, metaphors the film explores and social issues playing out in the backdrop of post war in Japan; the trust in the government, societal upheaval, PTSD, people helping people, destructive nationalism, communities banding together during in times of crisis and disaster response. These issues covered in the film are as relevant today as they were back then.

Godzilla: Minus One has received rave reviews around the world due to its human story and VFX budget of less than 15 million dollars. Hollywood budgets have become overinflated in the past few decades. The last batch of superhero and sequel films have bearly made their budget back which asks the questions… What are the big studios doing with all this money? How can a relatively small Japanese studio produce one of the most visually spectacular films of the year for less than the standard independent film? Are big studios cooking the books and inflating budgets for financial gain? or Have smaller studios just figured out how to make big films on a shoestring budget?
