I feel he fights against and with Godzilla and Mothera enough. So, he’s Iconic enough. Why not a Rodan II? I just hope they use the original roar. The new one was sucky like Gihdorah shrieking instead of laughing
Fun trivia, when the Rodan suit went crashing into the water, several of the wires on the wings snapped, causing the suit to slowly sink. Haruo Nakajima stated in interviews that had the suit not been made of materials that was buoyant, he would of most surely drowned as the only way to get out of the suit was through a zipper that could only be opened from the outside.
In Gojira, F-86F Sabrejets were able to force the monster back into Tokyo Bay. Those same jets were depicted much better in Rodan. Very lifelike in color
Agreed, it’s the close ups on the head that really highlight this. The original design had sharp teeth and a more reptilian design. The 64’-68’ version made Rodan a bit too bird like in my opinion.
Although certainly the Legendary Pictures kaiju movies must take enormous resources of technology and talent, over time the ingenuity of these Toho pictures, with their intricate models, and tiny jets firing showers of sparks at guys in suits, becomes more and more impressive.
Same director same producer ahha its like Francis Ford Coppola w the godfather & the same camera man that captures the depths & dark cinematic scenes of every movie scene of the movie no one could do better
@Főfasírozó, I have no objections to you. Japan helped China for some reasons but they eagerly built up military and naval powers. It is hard to make an ally.
The postwar reconstruction of Japan is one of the miracles in the human history, and is a role model for other Asian countries though some of them harbor ambivalent feelings toward Japan`s success.
I was born there ”SASEBO City” in Nagasaki Prefecture where Radon visit. When I was kid my mum used to tell me that she was in this movie for a few seconds running away from Radon at SAIKAI bridge which he destroyed. I am 51 years old now but I have never seen this movie yet. I knew Radon came to SASEBO but I didn't know he did that much. Now I am looking for my mum.
The effects are well done. Good use of lighting and color, appropriate backgrounds to make it, good editing with real people/locations to make it feel more real.
@@YourLocalGummiBearsFan Yeah, the 2019 scene was dumb as hell. What Fighter Pilot stays in close formation while being run down by a big ass pterodactyl lookin' ass monster?
@Seth Dkny Yes, and obviously the best way to do that is to all fly in formation neglecting the fact that Rodan is not simply allowing himself to be dragged along according the humans' scheme but is actually trying to kill them.
@@robtberardi every version of rodan (except singular point rodan) can fly so fast it tempers with the wind and it’s temperature so it blows away and destroy things
It's shown and stated to fly faster than the F-86 Sabres (Jets shown here) which fly at a maximum speed of 671 MPH or roughly 0.88 Mach 1. Rodan (Radon) was stated in released books to fly at a speed of Mach 1.5, or about 1,142 MPH. The sound you hear is the classic whistle of something which broke the sound barrier, which is of course the whine of the engines on a jet but in this case it could be the air whipping off the Pteranodon's wing tips.
Could Rodan be a Hommage to the british Avro Vulcan. This plane was known to be very loud und first flew in 1952. Honda must have known it from aviation magazines.
Honestly I have mixed emotions about turning Godzilla into a protector from a menace, but I really hate what they did to Rodan. In this movie he (they) is a force to be reckoned with. Later he's Godzilla's sidekick and doesn't do much.
Yeah in ghidorah the 3 headed monster rodan looks ugly and looks like he is high af. And in most of the fight he is just sitting on the ground roaring and nodding like a dumbass lol.
His design became uglier every time, only fire Rodan in GxMG 2 and Rodan in KOTM redeemed him. They did the same with Anguirus, he passed from the first Godzilla enemy to his sidekick that gets badly beaten every time he fights
Released in ‘56 in Japan, 1957 in US. Obviously Japanese version. Cuz you notice they’re speaking Japanese. Also, US version removed Ifukube’s incredible score for the net scene and the battle in Fukuoka
Rodan was a pretty good film, but I wish that the technicians could have found a way to get the wings to flap on the aerial version of the creature! All it seems to do is glide around like a ... well, a glider!

Don"t understand why there hasn't been a solo rodan remake as you can see rodan was a beast back in the day.
Glad they put some respect on Rodan in KotM

And yet it didn't stop him for playing as godzilla actor, that's what makes him A LEGEND & GOAT
@@dnw_15407 a legend. That right
Looks like a model crashing into the water to me.
円谷特撮の迫力と緻密さ、空気感は言うまでもなく、
佐世保市街や西海橋のシーンでの群衆役の俳優さん達やエキストラの皆さんの演技の高さが、シーンの緊張感をさらに高めていると思います。
何気に当時の佐世保がカラーで確認できる貴重な資料にもなってるよね
特撮合成も素晴らしいけど。何気にさらっと「戦闘機が二機西海橋をくぐって、一機は上を通過してる」シーンも考えてみるとよく作られてるのが分かる。
Such a great sequence with so many memorable shots; this monster suit is one of Toho’s very best.
And honestly the most scary, trauma from my childhood, lol
For 1956/1957, this movie is REALLY high-quality. In full technicolor, as well!
December 26 1956
August 6 1957
Watching these awesome japanese monster films on creature double features were the highlights of my bedazzled early youth.
偽物とわかっていても、その造りの迫力が凄い。
このラドン追撃のシーンって、今観てもスリリングだな。
ラドンは東宝怪獣映画の傑作！
CGが無い時代に、よくこれだけの
セットを作り、これだけの撮影したと
感心する
最初にアップで写ったセイバーのパイロットは中島春雄さんですね。
しかしまあ、最初のゴジラから四年足らずで、技術的にも格段に進歩してます。西海橋の下をセイバーが、しかも三機編隊でくぐるのなんかどうやって撮ったのか。凄いとしか言い様がありません。
Wrong, the movie was made in 1956
基本的に背景と機体の二つの画像合成で、くぐるのはそう見えるように錯覚させています。わかりやすいのは一番上の機体で橋を透過しているように見えます。映画館の初見では気づかれないだろと、録画再生が考えられない時代ゆえに、編集でOKになったものと思います。
Viewing this now as an adult, I have no idea why Rodan sounds like he has a jet engine, but I like it.
My guess is it was to justify why his wings aren’t flapping. Got some kind of natural jet propulsion going on.
To emphasize his supersonic speed
In Gojira, F-86F Sabrejets were able to force the monster back into Tokyo Bay. Those same jets were depicted much better in Rodan. Very lifelike in color
I mean, The jets didn't do anything, Godzilla was going into the ocean already when they showed up
They just annoyed him more than anything
1956 Rodan was pretty menacing compared to the one from 1964-68
Agreed, it’s the close ups on the head that really highlight this. The original design had sharp teeth and a more reptilian design. The 64’-68’ version made Rodan a bit too bird like in my opinion.
2:11 She is an underrated Heroine, she even said please
ラドンは１９５８年当時の佐世保とか福岡市内の様子がカラーで記録されてるから貴重なんですよね。
I was born in Japan when this movie was produced. This movie describes very well what Japan and Japanese lifestyle were like when I was born.
Have you ever been to TOHO studios ? and if so was it good
Still one of the best kaiju movies ever!
ラドンが阿蘇を飛び立ってから西海橋の崩壊で戦闘が収束するまでの約８分間
パイロットと指揮所の交信以外のセリフ無しで戦闘の絵柄だけで見せ切る力技がスゴい
並の怪獣映画なら特撮の貧弱な点を状況説明のセリフのオンパレードでごまかすところ
Although certainly the Legendary Pictures kaiju movies must take enormous resources of technology and talent, over time the ingenuity of these Toho pictures, with their intricate models, and tiny jets firing showers of sparks at guys in suits, becomes more and more impressive.
佐世保で生まれ育ち福岡にいるから感慨無量。東宝、本多猪四郎監督と円谷英二監督 スタッフの方々には感謝です。
Anyone realized King of the monsters kinda took inspiration from this?
Same director same producer ahha its like Francis Ford Coppola w the godfather & the same camera man that captures the depths & dark cinematic scenes of every movie scene of the movie no one could do better
No duh
Well ofc, Michael likes classical toho movies
Actually, Rodan came AFTER Godzilla!
@@Titan52berg since when rodan had a film in 1954?
当日の空自のパイロットの中には、旧軍出身者もいて大戦中は、ゼロ戦とか隼に乗ってたんだよね？
If I was a Navy pilot, I’d want my call sign to be Rodan. “Rodan going supersonic.”
One favs to watch growing up in the 70s and still is today.
Always loved rodans supersonic speed and sound
今見ても、というか今見るとミニチュアを上手に使って、リアル感を演出しているし、またパイロットの表情とかもいいですね。
カットの繋ぎが上手すぎる。

Rodan should have more movies named after him.🦅🔥
この映画の凄いのは、ミニチュアの再現性とそのミニチュアに続く標準撮影の繋ぎかと思います。
3:34 as you can see, on the top of rodan, there is a wire on his that lifts him up.
Micheal Dougherty adapted this Scene in "Godzilla: King of the Monsters" where Rodan fights the Jets too!

Indeed
Need to give those other Kaiju Toho movies
This such a epic beginning of a movie
Hate to break it to you but this is in like the last 45 minutes of the movie
You mean beginning of the last act of the movie
Rodan, The Mightiest of Monsters! my favorite monster☺☺
Lewis Goldsberry he's my favorite to!
My fav is ghidorah, Rodan and Godzilla
Rodan is my favorite too
Funny how a creature with no jet engines makes jet noises when he flies.

It was released in America in 1958 tho
This is the American version
angry lolbit This Is The Japanese Version
@@Jalen.3 in America it was 1957
1957.
If you watch this movie backwards it’s about a giant pterodactyl that is called Nador that fixes everything and fly’s around
Yes...and if you watch Godzilla backwards, it's about about a giant lizard that turns everyone into dogs!
And if you watch "JAWS" backwards, it's about a big shark trying to save people from being killed in gruesome ways....
日本遺産（Japan Heritage）認定の針尾無線塔（136m）の頂上に三角形の構造物、通称”かんざし”がある頃の映画なのですね。
The scene reminds me of the Imperial Japanese Army Airforce and Imperial Japanese Navy Airforce defending Japan from WWII airraids
Rodan is on par with the orignal Godzilla as being equally amazing.
Rodan sounds like a super sonic fighter!🤣
That's because he flew at Mach 1 speed.
At 3:37 u can see a wire to lift Rodan
佐世保、西肥バス、西海橋、針尾無線塔…堪りませんなぁ…
この映画を見た佐世保の人たちは昔の街並みを見て懐かしく思うんだろうな。

The F-86 Saber is a very nostalgic jet fighter.
Classic cinema !
Kong will definitely have trouble fighting Rodan in air even if it was the Monsterverse version and that Rodan has fire and its more effective to Kong
この頃の自衛隊の主力戦闘機はF86Fセイバーだったんですよね～🤔
Dude, look! Up in the sky! Its rodan! And hes fighting the North Korean air force!
Perhaps for Radon, hitting a fighter missile wouldn't hurt or itchy.
Wait i can see a string pulling rodan when rodan goes up the water near the bridge scene
Rodan my second favorite monster but noone compare to Godzilla. He is my king. My last name. Is Gonzales but i spell it Gonzilla. Yes sir
Could Rodan be a Hommage to the british Avro Vulcan. This plane was known to be very loud und first flew in 1952. Honda must have known it from aviation magazines.
