New Hollywood Godzilla
More than a decade since the year Roland Emmerich adopted Godzilla, one of Japanese icons, to American screens down the line, Hollywood aims at creating another American Godzilla movie.
The design of the monster is very original-Godzilla looking unlike Emmerich's version, which received unfavorable criticism as some Godzilla fans in the US named it GINO, Godzilla in Name Only.
Learning from the failure in the past, the new American Godzilla greatly resembles to the Japanese original feature; while the Emmerich's reminds audiences of a dinosaur or a large iguana.
