Mr Ishiro Honda was drafted three times and he spent 8 years in the military.
After the War Two, he made a movie called "Godzilla".
For him, Godzilla was a weapon of mass destruction. He wanted to show how horrible a war is. He wanted to say that weapons aren't any good to anyone.
Later he and his best friend Akira Kurosawa got together and made anti-war films like "Kagemusha", "Ran", "Rhapsody in August", "Dreams" and so on.
