I love Godzilla movies. Most of them are terrible (especially that Matthew Broderick mess), but they’re a huge event for me. My daughter doesn’t feel that way. She laughed at the 1954 original because Godzilla was as scary as an action figure. But I adore them. Mostly because “Godzilla” was my Irish grandpa’s affectionate nickname for my Japanese grandma. He’d say it, and she’d roll her eyes and go spend some money. Poor, misunderstood Godzilla.
You may have heard about the new Godzilla flick? He fights another monster, and the film stars Aaron-Taylor Johnson as the lead “human” character. These are photos from the LA premiere, and god. Aaron looks really good. Dreamy, even. He’s lost some of the bulk he gained for this film. His matinee-idol good looks are shining through. Would you hit it? Based on looks alone, I would. He’s awfully devoted to his marriage to Sam (who is wearing Chanel) though.
Elizabeth Olsen wore a black Chloe dress that’s a take on the classic black Jolie sack. Elizabeth is beaming — this is her first big premiere! — and looks gorgeous from the neck up. The dress dwarfs her, and she should have worn a more adventurous dress. Only Angelina Jolie can pull off a Jolie sack.
I’ve included photos some other attendees. CB’s man, Bryan Cranston, looked superb. Ken “Let them Fight” Watanabe was there for his scene-stealing moment. Plus … Joe Manganiello and Chris Hardwick.
