Godzilla is one of the most recognizable movie monsters of all time. There's a good chance you can picture Godzilla right now, but the design has actually changed a lot over the years. In fact, it changed almost every time a new Godzilla movie was made.
The changes were sometimes practical: the suits needed to be more flexible to work with the action in the script. But in one case, the design change was necessitated by the fact someone flat-out stole the suit and it was never recovered. Some changes were relatively minor, while others, like the design for the 1998 Matthew Broderick movie, were bad and should never be revisited.
To celebrate the release of Godzilla Minus One, let's take a look back at Godzilla's evolution over the course of 70 years. Head to the slideshow gallery below or scroll down to learn more:
The first appearance of Godzilla in 1954 set the basic look and tone for all future Godzilla films, with one major exception. This Godzilla has crazy eyes, the kind of eyes you'd expect to see on a radioactive city-stomping monster.
Godzilla Raids Again in 1955 brought a slight redesign to the creature. This change was largely due to the limitations of the original when it came to movement, since this movie features a kajiu battle against Anguirus. The suit is more flexible and has moving, soulless eyes.
In King Kong vs. Godzilla from 1962, the design changed again to give Godzilla a stockier build and smaller head. He also has more human-like eyes. No effort was apparently made for the King Kong costume, which looks like it was rented from a pop-up Halloween store in an old Circuit City.
In 1964, Godzilla took on Mothra, and the costume was adapted once again. This is one of the most recognizable designs, and probably close to what you think of when you think of Japan's favorite city-stomper.
The changes made to Godzilla's appearance for the 1964 Ghidora, the Three-Headed Monster were largely practical. The head was damaged during the last movie, so they just made a few adjustments and called it all day.
Invasion of Astro-Monster in 1965 brought another slight adjustment to the Godzilla design. He's not nearly as stocky in this movie, and his claws are a little more rounded.
In 1966's Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster, Godzilla looks like he's starting to get over his monstrosity, with calmer eyes. The costume is actually an amalgam of other kaiju costumes, some pieces borrowed from the Ultraman television program.
In 1967, Godzilla had a son, and they made a movie about their capering and called it Son of Godzilla.This is one of the most unsettling of all the Godzilla looks, because he somewhat resembles Robert Barone from the old CBS sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond.
In 1968, the mission was clear: all monsters must be destroyed, which is where Destroy All Monsters got its title. Really it's because the plot of the movie has aliens seizing control of kaiju and using them to destroy humanity. Godzilla's calm and peaceful eyes are once again tinged with monstrous rage. This design would stay in place for the next...
