Godzilla Minus Zero IMAX trailer teases King Ghidorah

《哥斯拉：负零》IMAX预告片暗示王者基多拉登场

One of the cinematic highlights of 2023 was director Takashi Yamazaki’s gloriously grounded kaiju epic, Godzilla Minus One, which became a major international hit and snagged an Oscar for best visual effects. Yamazaki is back this fall with the hotly anticipated sequel, Godzilla Minus Zero. Toho just dropped the full IMAX trailer, featuring not just our beloved Godzilla, but also a distinctive roar that teases the appearance of none other than the three-headed King Ghidorah. 2023 年的电影亮点之一，是导演山崎贵执导的怪兽史诗巨作《哥斯拉-1.0》（Godzilla Minus One）。该片不仅在全球范围内大获成功，还斩获了奥斯卡最佳视觉效果奖。今年秋季，山崎贵携备受期待的续集《哥斯拉：负零》（Godzilla Minus Zero）回归。东宝公司刚刚发布了完整的 IMAX 预告片，其中不仅出现了我们挚爱的哥斯拉，还伴随着一声独特的咆哮，暗示了三头怪兽“王者基多拉”的登场。

(Spoilers for the 2023 film below.) Godzilla Minus One focused on kamikaze pilot Kōichi Shikishima, who struggled with survivor’s guilt after he failed to take action when Godzilla attacked the Japanese base on Odo Island in 1945. Knocked unconscious, Kōichi woke to find he was one of only two survivors—and the other, a mechanic named Tachibana, was furious about it. His parents and many others were killed in the World War II bombing of Tokyo. Kōichi rebuilt a life with a woman named Noriko and the orphaned baby she rescued, Akiko. But then Godzilla re-emerged, and Kōichi resolved to die fighting the monster to atone for Odo Island. （以下内容包含 2023 年前作剧透。）《哥斯拉-1.0》讲述了神风特攻队飞行员敷岛浩一的故事。1945 年，当哥斯拉袭击大户岛的日本基地时，敷岛因未能采取行动而陷入幸存者内疚中。他在昏迷中醒来，发现自己是仅有的两名幸存者之一，而另一位幸存者——机械师橘宗作对此感到愤怒。敷岛的父母和其他许多人在二战东京大轰炸中丧生。后来，敷岛与一名叫典子的女子以及她救下的孤儿明子重建了生活。但随后哥斯拉再次出现，敷岛决定以死相搏，以此为大户岛的失职赎罪。

Spoiler alert: Kōichi survived, thanks to Tachibana’s forgiveness and mechanical ingenuity. He reunited with Noriko, who had a strange black bruise on her neck. And we saw a chunk of Godzilla’s remains start to regenerate, leaving things open for a sequel. And now it’s here. 剧透预警：多亏了橘宗作的宽恕和机械天赋，敷岛最终幸存了下来。他与典子重逢，但典子的脖子上出现了一块奇怪的黑色淤青。同时，我们看到哥斯拉的一块残骸开始再生，为续集留下了伏笔。现在，续集终于来了。

Per the official synopsis for Godzilla Minus Zero: War reduced Japan to zero, and Godzilla plunged it into minus. Two years have passed since then, and the country has faced agonizing struggles to achieve recovery and finally reclaim its daily life. Just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes, crushing hope in an instant. There is no third time. Everything ends here. 根据《哥斯拉：负零》的官方剧情简介：战争将日本化为零，而哥斯拉将其推向了负数。两年过去了，这个国家在痛苦的挣扎中寻求复苏，终于找回了日常生活。就在人类好不容易守住来之不易的和平时，新的威胁袭来，瞬间粉碎了希望。没有第三次机会了，一切都将在此终结。
