Mireniamu era (daikaiju eiga)
|
|
In the terminology of daikaiju eiga the Mireniamu (Millennium) Era refers not to the actual millennium but to all Godzilla films made between 1999 and the present day starting with Godzilla 2000: Millennium and continuing through Godzilla: Final Wars, which is supposedly the last movie in the series, or at least the beginning of a ten to fifteen year hiatus for Godzilla.
Unlike the Heisei era or, to a lesser extent, the Showa era the movies are not part of a single timeline. Godzilla: Tokyo SOS is a direct sequel to Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla; other than that the films only reference the original 1954 Gojira, but not all Mireniamu era movies even acknowledge the full course of events of that movie.
