So funny thing about this is it took the real-life events of the 1954 Godzilla suitimator who passed out every 30 minutes from heat exhaustion and got electrocuted 4 times. And yes, Unknowingly started this when he was 17 and got death threats over this series because people are assholes. But no, this is not a springlock situation, it's body mutation that makes the suitor the actual god of death and destruction like he is dictated as multiple times in the 70 year franchise.

[@TheTrueAlaskanMan]

Haruo Nakajima was his name. At the end of the shooting day they would pour several cups of sweat out of it. The suit was made of foam and quick set concrete. So, not fun

[@josiahws5]

What specifically were people mad over? I didn't see anything in the series worth sending death threats, although you have to be pretty sick in the head to send death threats to a 17 year old.

Instead of a symbol for the nuke, i had read that toho Godzilla is a metaphor for the USA, and the protectorate agreement they have with them. Each movie starts with Godzilla attacking Japan and them trying to kill him. Then, he fights the worse monster and now is an ally to the people. Much like the US nuked, but are now allies and have an defense treaty with Japan

[@TheTrueAlaskanMan]

Godzilla has represented many things throughout his 70 years on this earth. But in the original, he represents the nuclear bomb itself and not America. The film is a warning about making these weapons of mass destruction and how to beat one weapon (Godzilla) you have to make a weapon infinitely worse (The Oxygen Destroyer)

[@kaitlint3987]

Interesting, another possible interpretation would be nuclear energy itself considering how often the only way they can hem Godzilla in is with electricity

[@TheTrueAlaskanMan]

@@kaitlint3987 hmm... I thought they only hemmed him with electricity once for sure in King Kong vs. Godzilla and maybe elsewhere, I'm not sure. How often do they hem it with electricity?

[@SSD_Penumbra]

Godzilla, at least in the Japanese movies, is also not always the good guy. He's a force of nature that all you can do is hope it passes quickly, but in American movies, Godzilla is the hero, beating the odds and the other monster. A really good example of the split is in the modern Monsterverse movies (and show) where Godzilla is almost heralded as a hero, but look at Godzilla -1. Godzilla's very existance causes untold misery and sorrow to everyone it crosses paths with.

@Wendigames 12:27 the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki did not create Godzilla. In the original film, it is a prehistoric dinosaur that was awoken and irritated by the Castle Bravo nuclear test. Godzilla was also inspired by the fishing vessel Luck Dragon #5, the boat unknowingly wandered into the bomb radius due to it being nearly twice as large as originally thought and was exposed to radioactive ash and dust. The scoopee that shit into bags with there bear hands and one of them even "took a lick". The dust stuck to everything and later that day they got early symptoms of radiation sickness. They called it death ash. Most of the crew would survive and recover living normal lives. The U.S. did not respond to any letters or help requested from the hospital asking how to treat radiation poisoning but they did send two doctors to assist them. They never received any form of help from either government and most died of cancer later in life. Edit. They also had to make a new suit for the second movie because the original was too thicc

This reminds me of a drama I saw on UK TV decades ago, in which an actor is playing a monster in a cheesy B-grade horror flick, and the suit had mechanical hands which were dangerous if not used carefully. The actor was going through some stuff (maybe about to be fired? I can't remember) and he ends up killing another actor with the hands. Then it became a psychological siege sitaution because he locked himself in the studio. Can't recall how it ended.

There’s an added level of tragedy about the Man in the Suit feeling wronged by America due to complications/exposure to radiation when you take into account the fact that American medical aid workers sent in to assist with victims of the nuke either rarely or just straight up never divulged what the actual cause of radiation sickness was to their patients. Granted, there could have been many different reasons for why American medical aid workers were told not to tell their patients about this, such as due to the possibility of causing public outrage amongst the Japanese that could be prevented by simply helping them but not telling them. But in the end, it was a decision that once again kept America in a higher seat of privilege and power over a sick and suffering people lamenting in defeat. Very sad all around.

The Dorsal Extraction part actually got me, that's the part that finally made me conclude "yeah this is real horror, this goes hard." I love anatomy, I love biology. All the build-up and explanation that the suit is his SKIN, and there is AMALGAMATED FLESH inside of it- all that being set up and then hearing a SAW try to cut into it, eugh, gives me such a horrible feeling. I'm not even sure I wanna keep watching because I know this is gonna turn out horribly, especially for the doctor who's completely unprotected, and yet I'm not sure HOW badly it's gonna go. It reminds me of that scene from the live action Spider-Man movies, the one that was uniquely terrifying in context of the rest of the movie- where Octavio has his four metal limbs fused with his spine and they're trying to cut it out while he's in the hospital. The first time the saw turns on, the arms turn on, implying some form of sentience and perception- something about the arms is alive and it's trying to stay hidden by going under a more mechanical noise. I also love all the classic, CLASSIC Godzilla references, like the rising music during the Anguirus transformation. Most of my knowledge is through cultural osmosis and the Godzilla NES creepypasta, so the fact that it's using material that would resonate with Godzilla enjoyers is really cool. Always been fond of the series.

[@allthenamesiwantedweretaken]

1. The idea of someone "filling" the inside of a suit is not only terrifying, but.. quasi-feasible. There have been instances in Japan with hikikomori, the Japanese term for someone who has become such a recluse that they rarely so much as even stand up from their chair, who will be at their computer for so long that their flesh and skin begins to literally fuse to the fabric of the chair. Literally (I'm a new viewer so this may have been covered on the main channel already). This is from the body producing sores against the chair, the person not getting up, and then the body heals the sores and unknowingly grows skin tissue into the chair, locking them there and needing to be surgically removed, which is rarely survived. So, the idea of someone being in a suit for so long that their body begins to slowly deform into it is... scarily feasible. 2. This is further terrifying, knowing that the inside of the original Goji suit was quite possibly one of the most hellish environments to be in and very, very dangerous. The original actor for the 1954 Godzilla, Haruo Nakajima, would be in that suit (which was no joke made of foam and quick set concrete) for bursts of 30 minutes and would pass out multiple times in this suit, alongside getting electrocuted and nearly drowning in that same suit. It was a major health hazard, getting up to 140 Degrees Fahrenheit inside you were being literally *cooked* in there if you were inside for too long.

Original Godzilla concept had him and his family get hit by a bomb but only he survived

[@TheMimiSard]

Fun fact, "I am become death, destroyer of worlds" originates from Hinduism, namely a scene in the Bagavad Gita. The Bagavad Gita has a story about a prince who is supposed to wage war, but he flinches when he sees family on the other side. But one of the things is the prince has Krishna working as his chariot driver, and proceeds to give him a lecture on how people have to fulfil their destined role and this turns into a lecture about the principals of Hinduism, and at the end the prince asks to see Krishna's divine form (aka Vishnu), and Krishna agree and changes form, and declares "Now I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds". The Oppenheimer link is that J. Robert Oppenheimer had read the Bagavad Gita, and the test detonation of the atomic bomb made him think of that line. He later relates this in an interview he had, and as an aside, the audio of the interview is on "Minutes to Midnight" album by Linkin Park.

[@X3n0nLP]

I could never get into this one. The concept is interesting as an idea, but the videos are just mostly black screen with white text and old pictures, nothing interesting. The scary images that do show up they look intresting, but they never really have any impact. I was just kinda reading along and then, without much buildup an image shows up that might be scary if I was actually invested, but I just can't. It's such an unbelievable premise that they dive into without any explanation and the events surrounding the man and the studio are unreasonable unrealistic. I'm glad many people like it, still, it's well made generally.

For everyone who wants to know, Godzilla was awakened from a deep sea sleep by Japanese bomb testing. This is why he can breathe radiation. Godzilla was a symbol of anti-nuclear war in the 50’s as it had done horrible things to the world, especially Japan after the destruction of Nagasaki and Hiroshima in the 40’s at the end of world war 2

I love how much Wendigoon has been getting attention from other popular creators. He's simultaniously the most wholesome and most unhinged in any project he touches and it's great. I can't wait to see what all's to come!

[@Fembro]

As a long time Godzilla fan, it joys me so much to see all this hype around it.

[@beezus05gaming50]

I LOVE YOU WENDIGOOOOOONERRRRR

[@akiramani940]

I love gooning out for hours

I'm only a few minutes in, but right off the bat this sounds like that episode of Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy where Eddy & Double D make Ed a monster suit and he immediately thinks he's a real monster and starts terrorizing the town.

[@dustydowell2182]

Yeah, the premise is a bit similar. Except this is what would've happened if the episode *wasn't comedic* and the monster suit was *fused to Ed's skin*

[@michaeltodd343]

That episode freaked me out as a kid- one part the gross-out aspect and one part the way that Ed just snapped and disappeared into the Monster. That memory of fear is probably why The Man In The Suit is so freaky to me.

Can't believe that this is how wendi found out about Google translates camera and picture feature. That thing got me through my french class in 2020

[@jah24car]

This idea of a suit becoming one with the person inside it needs to be a horror movie, its an amazing concept

[@1superphantom394]

It says “Godzilla may be a monster, but I wonder if it’s natural for me to be, and to be in the body of this gigantic beast, so I can become one with him”

I feel like this series was a major missed opportunity. There's so many cool visuals and ideas within this, but it definitely feels like the writing should have been improved a lot. There's a lot of weird grammatical errors in the series and it really takes me out of it trying to properly break down what the author was trying to convey, there is also a lot of situations where its just extremely obvious buildup to the visual sting of the episode, so it feels very unnatural. I feel like the themes of Godzilla and original portrayal are innately scary (as a long time Godzilla fan myself) and I think the actual visuals within this story are just *so* good at conveying that monster movie horror. It just shows that even with insanely good visuals, I find most analog horror is really ineffective without strong writing. I feel like it's far too on the nose with the writing as a major flaw, such as directly stating "the nuke killed my wife" it kind of makes me laugh as opposed to makes me feel anything. There is so many cool things you can do with this series, and I am not sure if it's intentional but it certainly feels like the creator had a lot of inspiration from Godzilla films besides just the older one (there is a Godzilla film where Godzilla himself is possessed by the victims of the Hiroshima/Nagasaki bombings and other victims of WW2 and goes on an indescriminate rampage) so you can see there are so many cool ways to depict Godzilla and his ties to WW2 themeing and messaging

[@partyofiveminusfour]

Thinking Godzilla turned into spring trap is such a interesting cool thought

[@TotallyNotRicardio223]

When Wendigoon talks about a man merging with a rubber suit, I sit my white ass down and listen.

[@Kckilljoys]

Yay I’m glad I started the recommendation of Man in the Suit and then everyone in the live chat started repeating me so he finally saw it and looked into it! ❤

[@livinganaveragelife]

for a second I thought this was a man in the suit review

[@JoseLopez-yv1lc]

Am i the only one getting metal gear vibes from the lady's cream donut explanation?

[@xcollateralx3483]

We are gathering here today to goon

[@kadenhuber1138]

As a godzilla fan and a morbid wendigoon fan, this is great. Edit:we should pettition wendigoon to cover the original godzilla

[@E.G.I.L.3D]

i think the person in the godzilla suit survived hiroshima and because he is so irradiated he mutates into the suit. His family died in the bombings, that's why he hates americans and that's why he plays godzilla, he embodies his own trauma and obsession

[@sanictheedgehog]

This one is just complete wasted potential. Could have done something interesting with found kaiju footage and news broadcasts, and PSAs but instead thought, "what if man stuck in godzilla suit then he turns spooky"

[@NeutralL12]

Coolest part is this feels like GMK Godzilla where he was made of the souls of bitter people killed in the war.

[@scorpion2.411]

Is it only me, or does anyone else think the 1st person narration kills the atmosphere? The concept in the story is really really good, but I think the series could be remade with a "documentation" style (where it's a collection of dialogue, documents, footage, etc)

[@shan_2933]

This channel should be called goon gang come on mr goon get your shit together!! Happy gooning
