Much of the redacted wording in the credits hides information and Easter eggs. For example, “Walter” and “White” are the last two words that are crossed out when @BryanCranston’s name is shown. Freeze frame and see if you can find them all! #MonsterverseWatchalong
The costume for @Watanabe in this scene is based on Eiji Tsuburaya’s outfits (the special effects director on the early Godzilla films). #MonsterverseWatchalong

This is the first time in the franchise we see the Monarch logo, designed to represent the nexus between Myth and Science. #MonsterverseWatchalong
The backstory behind this massive Titan skeleton is explored in the Godzilla: Aftershock graphic novel. In the story, a Monarch base is eventually constructed on the site of the ruins, dubbed Outpost 14 as a reference to 2014 (the year the film came out). #MonsterverseWatchalong
In Godzilla: Aftershock, it is revealed that the Titan Jinshin-Mushi, aka “The Earthquake Beetle", implanted these two parasitic spores into the abdomen of a host Titan in order to incubate by feeding off its atomic energy. #MonsterverseWatchalong
The name of @Watanabe’s character, Ishirō Serizawa is a nod to both Daisuke Serizawa, a key character from the original 1954 film, as well as Ishirō Honda, the director of that film. #MonsterverseWatchalong
A poster on Ford’s bedroom wall features monsters very similar to the look of the MUTOs, foreshadowing what’s to come. #MonsterverseWatchalong

One of the headlines on Joe Brody’s wall reads “1954: COVER-UP IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC”, which is both a reference to key in-world events, as well as a nod to the year the original Godzilla film was released. #MonsterverseWatchalong

In the graphic novel Godzilla: Awakening, the USS Nautilus, the first-ever nuclear submarine, launched in 1954…and it awakened something. NAUTILUS was also the production codename for Godzilla (2014). #MonsterverseWatchalong
Monarch was founded by President Truman and General MacArthur in 1946 in the wake of the discovery of MUTOs. Here is the first-ever Monarch meeting, as seen in the graphic novel Godzilla: Awakening. #MonsterverseWatchalong
Monarch was a top-secret organization in this film...the next movie pulls back the curtain to reveal just how advanced they really are. #MonsterverseWatchalong https://twitter.com/tahrannosaur/status/1248411549942689797?s=20">https://twitter.com/tahrannos...

The Brody family is named after Martin Brody from Jaws. @BryanCranston compared the two films: “The film does not immediately show the beast, but rather builds up its appearance, while still delivering an eerie and terrifying off-screen presence.” #MonsterverseWatchalong

"(Godzilla) is an ancient warrior, who& #39;s the last of his kind...He lives a very solitary, lonely existence and he& #39;s very happy to keep away from everyone, but we keep doing things to force him to return and put things right." - director Gareth Edwards #MonsterverseWatchalong

What would you do if you saw Godzilla in real life? #MonsterverseWatchalong
”I tried to imagine Godzilla was a real creature and someone from Toho saw him in the 1950s and ran back to the studio to make a movie about the creature and was trying their best to remember it and draw it. And in our film you get to see him for real." - director Gareth Edwards
As part of director Gareth Edwards’ design, Godzilla’s dorsal fins were reimagined as shard-like rock extrusions…like a living mountain. #MonsterverseWatchalong

"Godzilla is definitely a representation of the wrath of nature. The theme is man vs. nature, and Godzilla is certainly the nature side of it. You can& #39;t win this fight. Nature& #39;s always going to win...He& #39;s the punishment we deserve." - Gareth Edwards #MonsterverseWatchalong
The film was released in 2014, the 60th anniversary of the original Godzilla film. #MonsterverseWatchalong

Godzilla’s original roar in 1954 was made by running a leather glove up and down double bass strings. For this film, they recreated that sound with a mix of instruments and random objects including rusty door hinges and drum toms until it sounded perfect. #MonsterverseWatchalong

The film contains 960 visual effects shots. Godzilla& #39;s 3D model is made up of 500,000 polygons. If the graphic was rendered on a single computer, it would& #39;ve taken 450 years to render. #MonsterverseWatchalong

Name this fight move. #MonsterverseWatchalong
The “GoWhales” name on the side of a boat here is a reference to “Gojira,” the Japanese word for Godzilla which was a combination of the words for “gorilla” and “whale.” #MonsterverseWatchalong
Is there a better finishing move in movie history? #MonsterverseWatchalong
The chyron on the Jumbotron here is both a nod to the American re-edit of the original 1954 film, titled “Godzilla, King of the Monsters!” as well as a tease of the title for the 3rd chapter in the Monsterverse, Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019). #MonsterverseWatchalong
