<<Yes, in fact some of the discourse behind the project has gone like this: 
"The Americans didn't get it right, so it seems like we have to do it 
ourselves."  There are, of course, other reasons.

So I have missed the chance to be an extra in a Godzilla movie. I can barely 
bring myself to write anymore. 

Actually I got hold of a copy of the official catalogue for the Tokyo Film 
Festival today, and reading between the lines it is clear that that nuance is 
in the back of peoples minds. 

Can anybody recommend a good primer on the history of Godzilla, and best of 
all any material recently written in Japan about the Hollywood version? 

Thanks, 

Gavin
