Spielberg’s favorite monster movie is that!

He directed ET Extra-Terrestrial, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Jurassic Park and War of the Worlds. Suffice it to say, Steven Spielberg knows all kinds of creatures. Being moviegoers, we are definitely curious to know what is the famous American filmmaker’s favorite monster movie.

Steven Spielberg’s favorite monster movie is Ishiro Honda’s iconic Godzilla. Not really… The film recently signed to adore The Fabelmans is not the work that was released in Japanese theaters in 1954, depicting the attack of a giant creature in Tokyo, but Godzilla, King of the Monsters!, the American version of which was released two years later!

Godzilla, King of the Monsters!, directed by Ishiro Honda and Terry Morse, is an “Americanization” of the original work. This American version, which benefits from a new edit with images from the 1954 film and previously unseen scenes, tells the story of an American reporter who covers a giant monster attack in Japan. It’s actor Raymond Burr, star of Rear Window and Perry Mason, who plays the title role.

“The only Godzilla movie I’ve seen is the one starring Raymond Barry”Steven Spielberg said on the mic for Entertainment Weekly, In the notes, IndieWire reported. “I stayed away on purpose 1998 versionWhich I didn’t want to see because I didn’t want to mess with my memory, which is my favorite Godzilla movie of all time.”

Two years after the American version of the 1954 work and the signing of the opus to Roland Emmerich in 1998, two more films with the participation of the famous monster appeared: Godzilla and Godzilla 2 – King of the Monsters, respectively, were released in cinemas in 2014 and 2019. And we won’t forget Godzilla vs. Kong, which will benefit from a sequel next year.
