This may be old news and there may even be a thread on this topic. (There are a lot of threads on Japanese movies on this forum.)
Last night I watched GODZILLA 2000 -- a movie I hadn't seen since it originally came out on DVD and had pretty much forgotten about. And I was struck by how close the imagery was of that alien spaceship atop the skyscraper, and then the subsequent explosion, with all the horrified bystanders watching, presaged the very real imagery of the TV news footage of the 911 tragedy the following year.
Has anyone else commented on the similarities between these imaginary and real events?
