Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989) Japanese DVD release flyer.
In Germany, a lot of the films were re-titled with the Frankenstein name in them to make them appeal more to German audiences, with whom the Frankenstein myth is very resonant. I’ve heard from different sources that this was also possibly carried over into the dubbing itself, and sometimes monsters (in particular, Godzilla’s enemies) would be explained as being creations of Doctor Frankenstein. I’m not entirely sure either way, though. spacehunter-m is probably the best person to ask about this!
This phenomenally awesome Godzilla cosplay was created by lifelong Godzilla fan Sean Sumagaysay from Puerto Rico. Yes, there is a person inside this amazing homemade suit and, if you watch this costume test video (shot on a rooftop so it looks like he’s as tall as the nearby buildings), you’ll find that it moves just like the big guy does in the movies. Sean named his cosplay project “Project Nautilus“ after the working title of the new Godzilla film which came out just last month. He debuted his lumbering creation at the 2014 Puerto Rico ComicCon.
