Godzilla, King of the Monsters!
1956
(Opening voice over) Steve Martin: This is Tokyo. Once a city of six million people. What has happened here was caused by a force which up until a few days ago was entirely beyond the scope of Man's imagination. Tokyo, a smoldering memorial to the unknown, an unknown which at this very moment still prevails and could at any time lash out with its terrible destruction anywhere else in the world. There were once many people here who could've told of what they saw... now there are only a few. My name is Steve Martin. I am a foreign correspondent for United World News. I was headed for an assignment in Cairo, when I stopped off in Japan for a social call; but it turned out to be a visit to the living HELL of another world...
(on Serizawa's fears about using the Oxygen Destroyer) Ogata: You have your fear, which might become reality; and you have Godzilla, which IS reality.
Dr Serizawa: The Oxygen destroyer must not be used! Ogata: If we do not defend ourselves from Godzilla now, what will become of us? Dr Serizawa: And what will become of us if a weapon, such as I now have, falls into the wrong hands? Ogata: Then you have a responsibility no man has ever faced. You have your fear which might become reality. And you have Godzilla, which *is* reality.
Steve Martin: I'm afraid my Japanese is a little rusty.
