Even Godzilla likes good wine in Japanese remake of ‘Sideways’

BY Monica Turner — 03.24.2009

gozdillas-sideways-wine-adventure1I’m not exactly sure what to make of this. Don’t know if it’s really news. Or even interesting for that matter. But it does seem quirky. A Japanese remake of the wine movie ‘Sideways’? Really?

My first question: why?

And second, which version of Godzilla will the filmmakers use to stomp grapes and hapless victims across the Napa Valley?

Perhaps a grown-up, mature, suave Godzilla that knows his Bordeauxs and Burgundys, but with a recent fondness for Malbec. 

Maybe they’re onto something here. After all, stomping takes effort and time. Foot size most certainly matters.
