Hidden Details




The four Toho kaiju are given actor credit

I am pretty sure that you've watched Godzilla, maybe in a theater near you or on the small screen, but probably not many of the small details have taken your attention. Most of the previous facts are hidden for some reason, but still, there is plenty of randomly forgetten stuff that makes the movie unique and interesting. The more you know, the more fascinated you'll be about Godzilla and will watch it online, download or stream it again and again.
