Above, a shrunken and helpless Godzilla is befriended by a Japanese girl vacationing in Los Angeles.
The plot to the upcoming Legendary Pictures Godzilla movie has been leaked!
The scenario of the story is that Godzilla has been rampaging in Japan and a scientist by the name of Haruo Fukuda invents a shrinking ray (shades of Brainiac in the Silver Age Superman comic books).
The script opens out on the open sea off Japan's coast where two Japanese whaling ships are harassed by a Greenpeace vessel. The whaling ships' navigators note an enormous blip on their sonar screens. They radio their captains and the ships are ordered to turn around and immediately leave the area.
The Greenpeace crew thinks they scared off the whaling ships and congratulate themselves when Godzilla surfaces just below them, causing their ship to capsize and sink.
Fukuda later successfully shrinks Godzilla to about eight inches tall. Although Godzilla is rendered helpless and could easily be killed due to his small size, the Japanese government agrees to allow American scientists to bring Godzilla to America for study. A Japanese girl vacationing in America takes pity on the creature and protects him.
However, the shrink ray proves to have only temporary effect and Godzilla regains his full size and rampages through Los Angeles.

Armand....where did ya hear that from?
I wasn't tricked by this April Fool's prank. However, I personally found this joke to be a more amusing, and more interesting story than anything Toho has come up with since 1975.
If Toho reads Armand's mock-script, they should take note! I'm sure it would have been an entertaining movie.
That was the BEST April Fool's joke yet! But I actually want to see this!
Glad y'all liked it. Ken, you didn't fall for it, did you? - A.
I was under the impression that it was an April Fools prank.
Since you didn't post it on the Godzilla 2012 site, I figured you were up to your old tricks.
The only thing that made me pause was the quality of movie ideas over the past couple of decades. It was just crazy enough to be true.
