Manage episode 385636182 series 2660907
In our lead up to Godzilla: Minus One, Byrd, Lux, Tom and Kevin examine more science fiction and fantasy films from director Takashi Yamazaki (Parasyte, Ghost Book, The Eternal Zero). Yamazaki made his first feature in 2000 and has been a consistent hit maker since, making some of the most successful Japanese films of recent years. For this episode, we discuss and review his debut coming of age/time travel feature, Juvenile (2000), the time travel action fest Returner (2002), and the whimsical yokai fantasy Destiny: The Tale of Kamakura (2017). We also give a crash course in Yamazaki's career, discussing the recurring themes of his work and the evolution of his career over the years. But first, we have our thoughts on Toho’s recent Godzilla Day shorts, and Kevin gives us a recap of his recent trip to Japan, including attending Godzilla Day and visits to the current Takashi Yamazaki exhibit and a tokusatsu museum!
So before checking out Godzilla Minus One, hang out with us and learn about its revered director!
