He isn't in any of the big crowd >scenes. Does anyone know if this is true? yes...as far as I remember,when the movie was first being brought to the US, it was thought that there had better be a big American "name" (Raymond Burr?? :-) ) in the movie so that we Americans would otherwise go see this 'meaningless' monster movie.... so they taped a buncha scenes with just him in it, and then edited the scenes into the movie.... I think that they might have done the same thing with the new movie jeff "oh no...godzilla!!"
