Best Visual Effects | 'Godzilla Minus One' | Oscars 2024 Press Room Speech

[@Denis-89]

Impressive, a non Hollywood film with small budget wins Visual Effects. This shows that low budget do not mean bad or cheesy

[@joaorlucs]

I feel like a lot of corruption happens in these high budget films. Mainly in the area of ​​visual effects.

[@OmarHermosillo]

Igual, Japón siempre fue visto como es el PAÍS tecnológico, a mi no me sorprende.

[@TheParaxore]

Money can't buy creativity or artistic inspiration.

[@bensadfleck9972]

​@@joaorlucsall that budget goes to the producers and actors

[@transfo47]

​@@joaorlucsNot really, for the MCU for example they're overworked and paid low compared to other technical professions like software development.

[@fletchkeilman2205]

Not gonna lie. I had a tear in my eye when the film won. Godzilla is a childhood inspiration for me. As a small child, when I had very little friends, I had my imagination to help me, and Godzilla was always there. Thank you, Godzilla. Thank you, Toho.

[@mariablackhawk7398]

I travelled 3 hours, booked a room, and took a taxi to the theatre, just to see this movie but I've been saving up since Shin Gojira was out on limited release a few years ago. I knew there would be something new coming out of Toho studio.

[@ravenzyblack]

I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets rereleased in theaters now that it has won an Oscar. Worldwide distribution could still be coming.

[@GojiraGirl]

This movie was just absolutely perfect in every way! I couldn’t get enough of it! So proud of Yamazaki-san and his amazing team! This is the Godzilla movie we have been waiting a long time for! Congratulations on the well-deserved Oscar! We are so grateful to you! 🏆🦖

The best film of 2023 it was amazing

[@お笑いヌーヴェルヴァーグLaghterneuv]

I am Japanese 日本人です We celebrate 2 wins for the first time in 15 years (since "Departures" and "The House of Small Cubes" in 2008) Most of you must be wondering why "Godzilla Minus One" was not the Japanese submition of International film. "Godzilla Minus One" was not that successful in Japan for a Godzilla film, and director Takashi Yamazaki is like Japanese Michael Bay, who started his career as a VFX guy. On the other hand, everyone thought famous Wim Wender's film was more Oscar-like especially after it won Cannes for the best actor. This is why it was a huge surprise that "Godzilla Minus One" was very successful both commercially and critically overseas. At Japanese Academy awards of the last week, which nobody even in Japan cares, "Godzilla" sweeped 8 categories including the best picture, while "Perfect Days" got 2 wins for the best director and best actor. But it was of course too late for the Oscar international film. In Japan, every one predicted "Godzilla" and "The Boy and the Heron" win

[@MichaelWilberg]

Godzilla Minus One war in Japan durchaus erfolgreich! Ähnlich wie Shin Godzilla. Die 75mio Dollar, die Shin Godzilla in Japan eingenommen hat, entsprechen wenn man die Inflation berücksichtigt, ca 56mio Dollar. Minus One holte in Japan 50mio. Viel schlechter als Shin Godzilla war er also nicht!

[@winterv.4715]

Nah he meant that Takashi Yamazaki had a similar start in filmmaking (starting as a VFX person and eventually building his way up to become a director). He ain’t saying that he has Michael Bay’s negative traits@@gojogo6455

[@FuegodeInfierno]

Godzilla is an Oppenheimer sequel

[@Ultra_Fine_Point]

In my mind, this film should have been nominated for Best Score, Best Sound Design, Best Actor, and Best Costume Design as well. "GODZILLA: MINUS ONE" was a technical MASTERPIECE!! Saw it in theatres 4 times! As well as the "Minus Color" black and white version, which is now my favorite version. I study films like this and am proud to see low-budget films making an impact again! Can't wait for the Blu-Ray! Hopefully it has tons of special features and both version of the film.

[@KeenEyeStudios]

Ah, if only Ishirō Honda could see the franchise now. I’d bet he’d be pleased.

[@NIKIZANGA12345]
