Today, I’ll be introducing this. Come hear about the monster’s origins and how this became the biggest Japanese Godzilla film of all time. #Godzilla70#GodzillaDay#GodzillaMinusOne
Back on the big screen to celebrate its first anniversary, GODZILLA MINUS ONE/MINUS COLOUR returns to City Screen this weekend! 🦖

I'm pleased to announce the publication of 'Godzilla at 70: The Giant Monster's Legacy in Global Popular Culture' @Humanities_MDPI an open access special issue exploring the impact of the king of the monsters into its eighth decade. #Kaiju#Godzilla70 https://t.co/qlQPE3cvMi
Next week I’m taking at #pint24 about how #kaiju are teaching about what we are doing to the climate. Come join for a Pint of Science at The Fulford Arms this upcoming Wednesday (15th). Tickets are only £5 at https://t.co/g7PSW7HGdK
I’m introducing A Matter of Life and Death @CityScreenYork on Monday. Come hear me talk about a complex, classic British film (and see the film of course). https://t.co/Hjr01ywWb9
This seems to be a good time to mention that I'm editing a special journal issue in the lead up to #Godzilla's 70th birthday next year. Academic takes on #kaiju and giant monsters in global popular culture influenced by the Big G are very welcome: https://t.co/VFz93l6mPw
Just sharing again as it settles in. Still really surprised by the reaction to the film (well, I’m not, because it’s excellent), but it’s far beyond our expectations for the project as an educational discussion point about film’s social power. @YorkStJohn @CinemaJustice
