Audrey Timmonds- Timid (get it?) reporter wanna be who's just way too nice. She finally gets a backbone and steals a tape from Nik, unfortunately it gets him into trouble.
Phillipe Roache- Jean Reno! Patriotic French secret service agent that comes to New York to "clean up" the French government's mess, namely "Godzilla."
Victor "Animal" Palotti- Hank Azaria! A crazy cameraman who constantly puts his life on the line to get great footage.
Lucy Palotti- With a husband like Victor, you have to be nuts! She knows how to put him in his place though.
Mayor Roger Ebert- I kid you not, that is his actual name. What makes it even funnier is that the name of his campaign manager is Gene (Siskel?). He ends up getting a thumbs down from Gene at the film's end.
Mr. Caiman- Short big-time reporter who constantly uses Audrey, the slime ball even tries to have an affair with her because she wants to be a reporter so badly. He's pushed out of the lime light by Audrey when "Godzilla's" eggs all hatch (so she gets the last laugh!).
Colonel Hicks- The actor (Keving Dunn I) portraying the Colonel doesn't really come off as well....a Colonel. His acting's great but a military officer he's not. He orders his troops to destroy "Godzilla."
Sgt. O'Neal- WILL YOU STOP STUTTERING ALREADY!? The commanding field officer in charge of seeking out and destroying "Godzilla."
New Yorkers, French Secret Service Men, and the Army- Chomped and stomped by "Godzilla" and it's children.
"Godzilla"- Notice the quotation marks? That's because I refuse to call this abomination Godzilla. It's a huge radioactive, bi-pedal Iguana, with halitosis that burrows beneath Manhattan Island. Killed (along with most of it's "Baby Godzilla's") by the U.S. military.
Lucy: "He is scum. As far as he's concerned you're just a pair of breasts that talks."
Victor: "Hey there's an image."
Lucy: "Victor, get back here you retard!"
Gene: "Didn't we agree that there'd be no more sweets until after the election?"
Roger: "Back off Gene."
Nik: "What's with the chewing gum?"
Roache: "It makes us look more American."
