00:00So, in Japan, Shin Goja did really well, and that's what we were following up to.
00:14So, Shin Goja, you know, it's about politicians, you know, the character design for Shin Goja was creepy.
00:20We actually intentionally wanted to do, really go the opposite way.
00:24So, for example, our Godzilla character design, we were more going for the cool factor, not the creepy factor.
00:31And instead of politics or government, this is a story about civilians.
00:36And, yeah, so that was some influence with Shin Goja, but also GMK.
00:42I guess on a subconscious level, I didn't realize how much I was influenced by GMK.
00:49But when I look back, I do see that GMK influence is sprinkled in there, especially towards the end.
00:56And, yeah, the first Godzilla movie, I mean, hands down, it's the most important.
01:01It's the most important.
01:03And I wanted to follow in its footsteps as far as that strong human, there's a lot of human relationship, the human experience versus the monster.
01:13And it was just so solidly done with the monster and the human experience that I wanted to definitely attain that in Godzilla Minus One.
