Godzilla vs. Biollante is the seventeenth Godzilla film and sequel to The Return of Godzilla. Directed and written by Kazuki Omori, the film is notable for introducing psychic Miki Saegusa (Megumi Odaka), who would go on to become the longest serving human character in the Godzilla series. The story originates from a script contest Toho held, which was eventually won by a dentist named Shinichiro Kobayashi. This would be the last Godzilla film to be distributed to the United States due to the incident with Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah, which would not be released until 1998 to tie in with the first American film. World politics are kept and joined with the dark underbelly of energy revolution and espionage. After Godzilla's rampage in Tokyo, various groups scramble to get their hands on Godzilla's cells for their own profit. In spite of four years passing since Godzilla's fall into Mt. Mihara the Japanese have created counter measures for Godzilla and wish to use his cells to create a defense against him, with fears they will create a greater threat. However, Dr. Genshiro Shiragami (Koji Takahashi) has already taken one step too far into learning the unknown...Then there's the eponymous plant monster.The film also stars Kunihiko Mitamura as Kazuhito Kirishima, Yoshiko Tanaka as Asuka Okochi, Masanobu Takashima as Sho Kuroki, Toru Minegishi as Goro Gondo, Yasuko Sawaguchi as Erika Shiragami, Toshiyuki Nagashima as Seiichi Yamamoto, Yoshiko Kuga as Keiko Owada, Ryunosuke Kaneda as Makoto Okochi, Kenpachiro Satsuma as Godzilla and Masashi Takegumi as Biollante.The film was released on December 16, 1989. Its story is followed by Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Godzilla vs. Biollante / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: One of the biggest threats early on in the movie is the threat of Godzilla being released from the volcano he's trapped in, with it basically being used as blackmail in order for the terrorist group to get what they want. Given what Godzilla represents, it can easily be taken as an allegory for another bomb being threatened to be dropped on Japan.

 Godzilla vs. Biollante / int_1badfbbb
comment
The Heavy: SSS9, the Saradian agent, is responsible for Godzilla's return when he prematurely kills the American agent before he can turn off the detonator in the truck. He also is responsible for stealing the Godzilla cells from the American spies in the beginning of the film, and kills Dr. Shiragami in the end. In many ways, SSS9 is indirectly responsible for most of the action in the film.

Bloodier and Gorier: Godzilla gets skewered by Biollante's vines, one going through his left hand, and he blasts bloody chunks off Biollante with his breath. Some of the gunfights can get pretty violent as well.

Worf Had the Flu: Godzilla began his rematch with Biollante after being infected by the Anti-Nuclear-Energy-Bacteria. Though he still puts up a valiant fight and forces her to retreat, his strength and stamina were clearly fading as the fight dragged on and his Atomic Breath was getting weaker with each use.

No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup: In the final act of the film, Saradian agent SSS9 is given an order from his President to assassinate Dr. Shiragami and make sure Japan cannot mass-produce the anti-radiation bacteria and succeeds. This after several missiles with the bacteria were used against Godzilla and proved their effectiveness. Seems nobody kept any kind of notes or samples of the creation process.

Nightmare Fuel Coloring Book: There's a scene where an entire class of psychic school children hold up drawings of Godzilla emerging from the volcano he was imprisoned in the last movie. Seeing as how it was all their dream, it also counts as Dreaming of Things to Come. At the end of the film, their teacher, Miki Saegusa, is seen drawing a rose in space, which foreshadows the eventual fate of Biollante.

Freeze-Frame Bonus: In Gondo's office, as the camera pans towards a door, it is possible to see two unusual objects on his desk. Firstly, a statue of Godzilla in his King Kong vs. Godzilla appearance is on top of the desk. However, the second object is more...frightening. Resting against the wall is the Oxygen Destroyer from the 1954 film. How the military managed to get their hands on a copy of the superweapon is unfathomable. A less horrifying possibility is that it was salvaged after the events of the 1954 film and kept by the JSDF as a memento of Godzilla's defeat, or just a sculpture or replica.

Botanical Abomination: Biollante herself. She is the result of a fusion between a rose, human and Godzilla DNA with a degree of sentience obtained from Erika's cells which allows her to communicate psychically to a level. Case in point, her One-Winged Angel state certainly puts emphasis on this trope.

 Godzilla vs. Biollante / int_acecb17d
comment
Chekhov's Skill: Godzilla seems to learn from his past mistakes of getting shot in the mouth by opponents (by the original Super X and later Gondo), and finally drives Biollante off during their rematch by scoring a few heat-ray blasts down her throat.

Oh, Crap!: The above mentioned scene featuring the psychic children. Shiragami has a subtle one when he discovers his little genetic experiment may not have gone entirely as planned.

Be Careful What You Wish For: In the page quote, Gondo hopes that Godzilla will actually return, or else his job will be pointless. Unfortunately for him, Godzilla does return. At least he spouts off a great one-liner before Godzilla kills him.

Battle in the Rain: Godzilla has one against the Defense Forces during a thunderstorm. Invoked as they're trying to raise his temperature, by zapping him with lightning, for the Anti-Nuclear Energy Bacteria to work more quickly on him.

New Powers as the Plot Demands: The first time Godzilla uses his thermo shockwave trick. For the rest of the 90s he used it roughly once per movie. It was even given an official name by Toho, the Nuclear Pulse.

Big Bad Wannabe: What Bio-Major ends up being in the long run. SSS9 and Biollante end up killing several of their agents, and even when Lee manages to hold Japan hostage with bombs planted around the volcano holding Godzilla, SSS9 still ruins the plan, kills Lee and takes off with the G-Cells. After that they cease to factor any further in the film's story.

No Ending: The entire nation of Japan collectively freaked out at Godzilla's appearance. Twice. His mere presence triggers 3 out of 4 tiers of a warning system. But this movie end with Godzilla going out to sea, ... and everyone is okay with it as pleasant music plays. It's almost indistinguishable from the other more sinister times that Godzilla went into the ocean, except for directorial cues and dialog.

Mundane Utility: The human elements of the plot are centered around the development of the Anti-Nuclear-Energy-Bacteria, which were developed from Godzilla's cells to make use of his ability to metabolize radiation as a means of cleaning up radioactive fallout.
