I totally love the transition from the falling ashes to the flight over the Philippines forest in the movie. It's seamless, so natural. One moment you see the tiny black spots (the bulks of ashes), the next you see holes in the density of the trees, exactly where the spots were.

Its the same scene if you look at the intro its just cut up scenes and the one exploding in the ocean was a separate test the one we saw was the one on the island and had the same bomb and everything and when you see that one explode it was on the surface like where godzilla was standing and in the series in the intro im pretty sure the clips were cut so him coming out of the water was cut then they skipped to the bomb exploding the series actually shows you the full clip lol its chopped up in the intro and skipps around between the bikini bomb and the ocean detonation​@dfmrcv862

[@gladisaliaga1984]

​@@dfmrcv862 Exactly, both events in Castle Bravo are different, the one in the series is different because until before Operation Castle Bravo, they did not know about the existence of Godzilla or his name. While in the 2014 film, its existence was already known before appearing in Bikini Atoll when encountering the nuclear submarine USS Nautilus and the American and Soviet armies.

Unfortunately I feel some elements I and many others love that this film has but the others don’t, may be a bit more lost.

He's right. According to the original film's story, the Godzilla that surfaced in Tokyo back in 1954 survived the H bomb but it's last remaining family didn't survive the nuclear blast. That's why Godzilla attacked Tokyo and Japan alone. It's revenge for its family.

All they gave us were shots and scenes on tv, breaking news and stuff. Sure it's not what everyone expected, but this movie was more focused on the human characters. That's an issue in a monster movie, people want to see the titular monster and not some guy looking for his family. But overall it wasn't a bad movie, it was just different. Later movies fixed that.

In my opinion, the Monsterverse has some of the best opening credits of any movie, combining historical footage with the fictional kaiju timeline, take notes marvel and DC.

[@CC-pu3pe]

I miss the 2014 themes... I think they should keep it as the monster ver. one not just reuse and reuse the same old japanese one

[@marekdzurenko3449]

This movie was way too clever for today's popcorn-munching ADHD audience. The opening scene alone gives my chills.

[@hulkhogansmash2809]

I have ADHD, this is one of my favourite films, along with saving private ryan, bridge of spies, and jurassic park (because jeff goldblum) but yeah i don't understand why people keep complaining that you don't see the monster enough, and yeah this opening is the best ever. i want a film about monarch

[@vbr2]

too clever? you have very low standards if you think this movie was even slightly "clever"

[@Invader9Productions]

The people who talk bad about this film are probably the same people who praise stupid shit like Transformers and the Resient Evil films.

[@danilang3504]

Your point is stupid af.

[@defaultoandores626]

Can't agree more with you.

[@joem4585]

A little historical knowledge makes this even better. This is heavily implied to be the infamous Castle Bravo nuclear test, which performed well over expectations and produced a blast of fifteen megatons. Godzilla didn't just tank a nuke, he tanked the most powerful nuke the US ever detonated (only three Soviet nuclear tests ever exceeded it). Fittingly (and tragically) the fallout from Castle Bravo led to the same tragedy that inspired the original Godzilla film.

[@steel.9714]

If I remember correctly, the incident of castle bravo fallout was lucky dragon number nine

[@Ash-np4pd]

One of the greatest opening credits in film history.

[@NicQuattromani]

This and the HALO jump scene were my two favorite parts of the movie, because they perfectly tie into the Lovecraftian cosmic horror aspect of it.

[@kuribayashi84]

Nice to see a proper Main Title-Scene in a modern movie for a change. I get the impression that these have really fallen out of use in the last decade or so.

[@AshrafAnam]

+Schwatvogel yup, very much true. I miss proper title sequences.

While I love all of the MonsterVerse movies I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss the Gritty and Grounded feeling of the first one.

[@ThisIsBoogieJar]

Real, I dislike all the recent ones because ive always felt like they just slapped the first one in the face. Ive also hated that they've like never referenced to 2014.

[@AnonymousSilence-nd3zb]

1:36 I love how the cliche of using the _Baker_ shot, an atomic bomb test, from old sci-fi movies about atomic monsters manages to creep its way into this modern movie in a scene intended to replace the _Bravo_ shot, a hydrogen bomb test.

No matter how many times I hear it, I absolutely love the 2014 theme music

[@seba.abarzua]

This opening still amaze me today. I didn't watch a opening that good for years!

[@CatDonkey]

I love the "Walter Malcolm" on Bryan Cranston's name.

[@sidewindah]

there's also the "walter" "white"

[@somebluntdude]

I loved this movie. When me and my two mates went, one of their girlfriends joined us. The scene at the nuclear plant where his wife is locked and sealed in the radioactive steam she teared up a little but later on when Godzilla did his roar in Hawaii we all got goosebumps and it made us get all warm lol

[@mitchtange8029]

The thing I love about those little blurbs that appear and then immediately get censored during the opening credits is that not only are they world-building and very intriguing, but some of them are also kinda hilarious. “Evidence show that it is likely the creatures will come back with David Strathairn’s head.” “Richard T. Jones has claimed unique knowledge of the creature’s odd mating habits with CJ Adams.”

[@SNFX__]

I know that after watching Monarch: Legacy of Monsters EP.3, there will definitely be people coming back to watch this clip

[@jw9737]

That opening music gave me the chills . Completely underrated track.

[@DreddJudgeJoe]

I love the Opening titles of this movie and I’ve been a movie fan for nearly 60 years. The images are so evocative and so convincing I get goosebumps every time I hear that fantastic theme. Only ONE criticism. As the countdown commences you see the bomb and a bunch of helicopters beating a retreat. They are shown so close to the Monster Bomb they would all have been vaporised !!! However, love it, my Number 1 opening sequence….tells the story nicely.

[@sheena1521]

Amazing opening sequence. Still get chills as if I were in the seats back in 2014.

[@victorvelasquez9844]

I grew up watching Godzilla since I was 5 years old watching most of the Godzilla movies from 1954 to 2004 (I’ve now watched every Godzilla film) when they teaser came out I got so pumped and excited. Finally when I saw this movie my childhood came back and I left the theater with a huge smile. This was my favorite movie of 2014 and now I cannot wait for King of Monsters and Godzilla vs Kong. Long Live the King

[@BearMan2010]

By far the best opening in the monster-verse, they didn't reveal much which makes it even better in a mysterious way...i love this.

[@tygamasta1720]

I love this title scene, best title scene I can remember seeing for a monster movie ever.

[@snaake9389]

Listening to it again, the music score is structured very similarly to the original Godzilla theme, and it’s highly appreciated.

[@smilingknight8655]

1:30 Oppenheimer post credits

[@kaijukid_films]

Words can not express how much i love this intro. The buildup when Godzilla was spotted, then the countdown for the bomb, then its dentanation, then bomb's debree covering the screen, and then the final moment: the faint sound of civilians screaming, and then the title card fades in... Perfection

[@yamatovergil3408]

1:53 if you hear closley in this part you can hear nagazaki and hiroshima peoples suffering from atomic bombs and its also reason for wake up godzilla from underground of earth

[@BlockyNinjaVidz]

Spooky

[@hyperunboxing9304]

Cool

[@kas2747]

The reason Godzilla help to defend the planet from bigger threats and saves mankind is cause he is thanking us for giving him a radiation bust when they nuked him all the way back in the 1900s

[@Croftice1]

Sure, just because people fed him, he's protecting the planet? Yea, serious logic. He is an apex predator, he hunts the MUTOs, because they are his prey, not because some people threw a (food) bomb at him back in the fifties.

[@jurassic_zilla_01]

Who came here after watch one of the Kong: Skull Island tv spot which they mentioned the nuke test in 1954
