Trivia

This film makes it clear that the Gojirasaurus that attacked Japan in 1954 did indeed die. Characters refer to the destruction of the original Gojira by the oxygen destroyer. As indicated by Doctor Yamane's speech at the end of the first film (where he surmised that other members of the gojirasaurus' species may have survived on isolated islands, similar to the later DC series "Dinosaur Island"), continued atomic testing mutated such another member of the species, and this specimen attacked Japan in 1984 in Godzilla 1985 (1985). Therefore, this explains why the events of the original Godzilla film ( Gojira (1954)) remained part of the time line despite Gojira vs. Kingu Gidorâ (1991). (In that film, time travelers attempted to meddle with history to prevent the origin of Gojira. Since the gojirasaurus that attacked Japan in 1954 represented a different specimen than the one that attacked Japan in 1984, the actions of the time travelers in that film did not affect the origin of that Godzilla.)
