Steven Andrew Soderbergh (born January 14, 1963) is an American film director, producer, screenwriter, cinematographer, and editor. A pioneer of modern independent cinema, Soderbergh later drew acclaim for formally inventive films made within the studio system. Soderbergh's directorial breakthrough, the indie drama Sex, Lies, and Videotape (1989), lifted him into the public spotlight as a notable presence in the film industry. At 26, Soderbergh became the youngest solo director to win the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, and the film garnered worldwide commercial success, as well as numerous accolades. His next five films, which included King of the Hill (1993), were commercially unsuccessful. He pivoted into more mainstream fare with the crime comedy Out of Sight (1998), the biopic Erin Brockovich (2000) and the crime drama Traffic (2000). For Traffic, he won the Academy Award for Best Director. He found further popular and critical success with the Ocean's trilogy and film franchise (2001–18); Che (2008); The Informant! (2009); Contagion (2011); Haywire (2011); Magic Mike (2012); Side Effects (2013); Logan Lucky (2017); Unsane (2018); Let Them All Talk (2020); No Sudden Move (2021); and Kimi (2022). His film career spans a multitude of genres, but his specialties are psychological, crime and heist films. His films have grossed over US$2.2 billion worldwide and garnered fourteen Academy Award nominations, winning five. Soderbergh's films often revolve around familiar concepts which are regularly used for big-budget Hollywood movies, but he routinely employs an avant-garde arthouse approach. They center on themes of shifting personal identities, vengeance, sexuality, morality, and the human condition. His feature films are often distinctive in the realm of cinematography as a result of his having been influenced by avant-garde cinema, coupled with his use of unconventional film and camera formats. Many of Soderbergh's films are anchored by multi-dimensional storylines with plot twists, nonlinear storytelling, experimental sequencing, suspenseful soundscapes, and third-person vantage points.

Me and my friends are making a MonsterVerse Son of Godzilla movie Idea that’s done in the style of those kid adventure films of the 80’s and 90s like ET, Goonies, Stand By Me, The Sandlot, Iron Giant, etc. It has the tone of that like ET and Iron Giant. It would be lighter toned compared to the previous MonsterVerse installments but is still mature enough to have a PG-13 rating. I don't want it to be too goofy or childish like the original Son of Godzilla and Godzilla's Revenge. I want to make sure it doesn't stick out of the MonsterVerse films like a sore thumb and try to keep it grounded and more realistic. The film takes place in July and involves a group of five kids in suburban Portland who discover and befriend a baby Godzilla that has washed up on a beach. They named it Minya, and with the help from a former Monarch scientist now school teacher Dr. Charles Newton, they try to keep him hidden from the public, the authorities, and any one who would try to hurt him.
