Saw “Godzilla Minus One” for a second time at Shinagawa, which was recently upgraded with “IMAX® with Laser.” The sound was excellent. Picked up the special edition pamphlet as well, along with the Movie Monster Series King Ghidorah Theatrical Release Commemorative Original Color Ver. A “Godzilla film” is different from an ordinary “kaiju movie.” For more than 60 years, it has transcended generations, cultivating a fanbase that continues to multiply like Godzilla cells themselves. There have been the Showa era films, the Heisei era films, the Millennium series, the MonsterVerse, director Anno’s Shin Godzilla, the animated Godzilla films. Each comes with its own distinct look and interpretation of Godzilla. Naturally, everyone has their own thoughts about this latest one. But as a longtime Godzilla fan, what makes me happiest is seeing so many people talking about it, debating it, planning merchandise and events around it, and audiences around the world embracing a Japanese-language Godzilla film. This Godzilla is neither “Minus” nor “Zero.” For humanity, it can only be a “plus.” And that goes for Minami Hamabe’s return to the world stage as well.

“Black Doves” was so good that I ended up binge-watching the rest of Season 2 in one sitting. Season 1 was great, but Season 2 takes it to a whole new level. For fans of British spy thrillers, this is an absolute treat. The story beautifully captures the lies, love and hate, sadness, loneliness, and loyalty of spies and assassins, building up to an action-packed finale. Above all, Keira Knightley and Ben Whishaw are simply outstanding. Kathryn Hunter as the handler of hired killers and Ella Lily Hyland as an assassin are also fantastic. Every single character is brilliantly written and brought to life. I could watch this forever. I really hope there’s another season. Highly recommended! 👍🫶

As confirmed earlier through our official channels, in mid-June of this year, we unexpectedly received notice from PlayStation Studios that they would cancel the PHYSINT project. PHYSINT is an important project both to me personally and to KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS. Determined to keep the project alive, we have spent the last three months searching tirelessly for a new partner. In the course of seeking advice and pursuing negotiations with people across many fields, we found in XBOX a partner with whom we share a common vision for the future, and we have decided to team up with them once again. Please rest assured that development of PHYSINT, our genre-defining action-espionage title, is ongoing and will continue moving forward.
