GODZILLA RETURNS TO HOLLYWOOD 「『ゴジラ』最新作を公開」

Sixty years after first taking the world by storm, it's back. A new Hollywood remake of the classic monster movie "Godzilla" has opened in the United States, and people are lining up for their share of scares.
A theater at a popular tourist spot was packed on the first day of the film's screening. The release of the second American remake comes six decades after the first Godzilla film opened in theaters across Japan. The film proved to be an international success, and the producer went on to make dozens of more Godzilla movies. The new U.S. film is the first 3-D version of the series, with computer graphics galore.

(Godzilla fan)
"It was a really genius idea to make the story. I don't know ... it was really beautiful. I enjoyed it!"

A six-meter sculpture of Godzilla is on display in front of the theater, where people are also lining up to have their photos taken with Japan's most famous monster.
