1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,840
Hey everybody, Derek here. 
Just a quick note before we get 

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:07,640
into the episode itself. 
We are now pretty deep into the 

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,960
ongoing writers and actors 
strikes in Hollywood. 

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,160
And I mean obviously as a a a 
pretty. 

5
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,200
I think at this point it should 
be pretty obvious like 

6
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,280
left-leaning podcast and and 
very like pro labor folks. 

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,680
We want to stand in solidarity 
with the folks striking, You 

8
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,200
know, people in Hollywood, 
writers, actors deserve better 

9
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:29,640
pay. 
They deserve not to be 

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,880
supplanted by a I writers 
deserve the writers rooms where 

11
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,480
I'm not the person you should be
coming to for these kinds of 

12
00:00:35,480 --> 00:00:37,160
full breakdowns as to what 
strikes are about. 

13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,840
But the important thing is SAG 
AFTRA, the Actors Guild has 

14
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,440
requested that influencers and 
podcasters and the like cease 

15
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:53,800
promoting work that is by the 
studios and the major streaming 

16
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,000
models that have been struck 
against. 

17
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:00,680
Now what that means for us at 
first was a little confusing. 

18
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,640
I figured we were in the clear 
because we are covering 

19
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,040
primarily Japanese made movies. 
And to be clear, I'm not 

20
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,800
necessarily worried about the 
idea of being blacklisted by SAG

21
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,880
AFTRA. 
It's incredibly unlikely, like 

22
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,390
I'm ever going to become a 
Hollywood actor, but you know, 

23
00:01:15,390 --> 00:01:17,750
we support the strikes. 
We support them ideologically. 

24
00:01:17,750 --> 00:01:21,230
I have friends in SAG AFTRA who 
are striking and I want to stand

25
00:01:21,390 --> 00:01:24,270
by them and and hope that they 
get what they are, what they're 

26
00:01:24,270 --> 00:01:27,430
asking for, and get a fair deal 
from these studios. 

27
00:01:27,870 --> 00:01:32,070
But the difficulty is we are 
coming up on potentially 

28
00:01:32,070 --> 00:01:35,630
covering some of the 
Americanmade movies very soon, 

29
00:01:35,910 --> 00:01:39,790
so that it would seem, despite 
the fact that we were talking 

30
00:01:39,790 --> 00:01:43,710
about older movies, might be 
against the spirit of of what 

31
00:01:43,710 --> 00:01:47,590
SAG After is asking us to do. 
So for right now, everything's 

32
00:01:47,590 --> 00:01:48,910
fine. 
We're going to keep putting out 

33
00:01:48,910 --> 00:01:51,590
episodes covering the, hey say, 
era of Godzilla. 

34
00:01:51,790 --> 00:01:56,430
But once we hit the end of that 
and hit the very infamous 

35
00:01:56,630 --> 00:02:00,710
Tristar Godzilla film, if 
there's not a deal done in 

36
00:02:00,710 --> 00:02:05,270
Hollywood, we will probably have
to take a a short hiatus until 

37
00:02:05,830 --> 00:02:08,310
an appropriate deal is made in 
the Strike Can End. 

38
00:02:08,889 --> 00:02:10,810
Obviously the, you know, these 
episodes are not coming out 

39
00:02:10,810 --> 00:02:12,370
weekly. 
We're going to see how things 

40
00:02:12,370 --> 00:02:15,130
go. 
But you know, just so you all 

41
00:02:15,130 --> 00:02:20,010
understand that we stand with 
the the writers and the actors 

42
00:02:20,010 --> 00:02:25,170
in Hollywood who are on strike 
and we stand with labor and you 

43
00:02:25,170 --> 00:02:31,090
know, we will be, we will not be
covering any of the American 

44
00:02:31,090 --> 00:02:34,090
made Godzilla movies. 
We will just put the podcast on 

45
00:02:34,090 --> 00:02:36,090
hiatus until it's time to go 
again. 

46
00:02:37,220 --> 00:02:39,220
If a deal is not struck soon, 
that's it. 

47
00:02:39,580 --> 00:02:55,470
Onto the episode itself. 
Hello, everyone, and welcome to 

48
00:02:55,470 --> 00:02:57,710
Castle Bravo. 
A Godzilla Versus retrospective.

49
00:02:57,910 --> 00:03:00,950
I'm Derek. 
And I'm Charlotte, and we're two

50
00:03:00,950 --> 00:03:03,070
siblings here to examine the 
history of the Godzilla 

51
00:03:03,070 --> 00:03:06,590
franchise, one movie at a time. 
We're joined today by writer and

52
00:03:06,590 --> 00:03:08,510
journalist Ryan Easby. 
Ryan. 

53
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,600
Hello. 
It's a pleasure to be here. 

54
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:15,920
I'm honestly surprised we we 
spoke about this so long ago. 

55
00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:17,200
I'm honestly surprised we got 
here. 

56
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:18,600
Yeah, I know. 
It's. 

57
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,920
It's kind of the thing about 
trying to plan out like multiple

58
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:25,760
seasons worth of guests at one 
time is, you know, yeah, some of

59
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,000
the folks further down the list 
are like, okay, maybe we forgot 

60
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,080
about this. 
And then there's a lot of folks 

61
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,120
I'm like reaching out to. 
It's like, shit, Yeah, let's go.

62
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,190
Let's, you know. 
But I'm excited. 

63
00:03:37,190 --> 00:03:39,550
How's it going, bud? 
How you been? 

64
00:03:40,070 --> 00:03:44,670
I've been really good. 
The world's on fire. 

65
00:03:44,950 --> 00:03:48,310
But I'm honest, as I as an 
individual, I'm doing really 

66
00:03:48,310 --> 00:03:52,510
well and I got to watch a movie 
that made me ask so much today. 

67
00:03:53,110 --> 00:03:56,430
And. 
I've got so, I've got so many 

68
00:03:56,430 --> 00:03:59,270
thoughts. 
But yeah, I'm really pleased to 

69
00:03:59,270 --> 00:04:00,910
be here. 
Awesome. 

70
00:04:00,950 --> 00:04:04,790
Awesome, Charlotte. 
Yeah, How you doing? 

71
00:04:05,970 --> 00:04:09,930
I'm all right, just all right. 
I'm back to, all right. 

72
00:04:09,930 --> 00:04:11,730
Yeah, yeah. 
You know, I'll take. 

73
00:04:11,730 --> 00:04:14,010
All right. 
Look, the air quality's been 

74
00:04:14,010 --> 00:04:15,610
bad. 
My sinuses are weird. 

75
00:04:15,610 --> 00:04:19,329
My eyes are weird. 
They found, they found a house 

76
00:04:19,329 --> 00:04:21,730
that was just basically made of 
bombs. 

77
00:04:22,770 --> 00:04:26,170
Yeah, like, very, very close to 
where your mom lives in the 

78
00:04:26,170 --> 00:04:27,170
city. 
That's right. 

79
00:04:27,170 --> 00:04:30,250
You were telling me you were 
like, yeah, they're doing a 

80
00:04:30,250 --> 00:04:32,330
controlled burn. 
And in my hot head, I was like, 

81
00:04:32,330 --> 00:04:34,490
wait a minute, Wasn't there 
like, a house that was just 

82
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,600
packed to the gills with bombs 
that was just like a bomb shaped

83
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,920
like a house that they found in 
Louisville? 

84
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,320
I was like, is that the 1:00? 
And then you were like, yeah, 

85
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:44,360
they. 
Can't risk moving it. 

86
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,760
Yeah. 
So they're just going to burn it

87
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,080
because somehow burning bombs is
better than moving. 

88
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,520
It I don't. 
I don't know this stuff. 

89
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,240
I'm a lot of things and a bomb 
disposal expert is not one of 

90
00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:01,430
them. 
So Yeehaw, I've been doing OK. 

91
00:05:02,030 --> 00:05:05,630
It's been kind of a crazy couple
of weeks because we had to take 

92
00:05:05,630 --> 00:05:06,950
a couple weeks off from 
recording. 

93
00:05:06,950 --> 00:05:09,870
Like I was traveling a lot and 
then you were traveling. 

94
00:05:11,270 --> 00:05:13,830
And then, you know, obviously as
as people heard from the end of 

95
00:05:13,830 --> 00:05:18,750
Godzilla versus Mothra, I got 
real sick and it got so much 

96
00:05:18,750 --> 00:05:22,190
worse, like the night after the 
night we recorded that. 

97
00:05:23,150 --> 00:05:25,590
Oh my God, I'm sorry. 
It's so bad. 

98
00:05:25,590 --> 00:05:29,470
About like that was what, like 
1:00 PM on Sunday? 

99
00:05:29,910 --> 00:05:33,550
And then by that night, I was 
like in the shower, throwing up 

100
00:05:33,550 --> 00:05:35,950
on myself, repeatedly weeping 
like. 

101
00:05:36,550 --> 00:05:40,470
Oh my God, it was so bad. 
So the next day I went to the 

102
00:05:40,470 --> 00:05:42,270
doctor. 
I was like, this is, this is 

103
00:05:42,270 --> 00:05:43,670
Doctor Worthy. 
It's time. 

104
00:05:43,670 --> 00:05:46,030
So. 
And I got pills and I got shots 

105
00:05:46,030 --> 00:05:49,510
and I'm better. 
So you know, you have to give. 

106
00:05:49,550 --> 00:05:51,990
You pills and shots. 
I know. 

107
00:05:53,010 --> 00:05:56,490
Shots by the way in the like 
shots, shots, shots, shots, 

108
00:05:56,490 --> 00:06:00,850
shots kind of way. 
Not like yeah, they literally 

109
00:06:00,850 --> 00:06:04,250
handed me like a plastic shot 
glass full of steroid liquid and

110
00:06:04,250 --> 00:06:07,410
they were like fucking drink 
this just go party time. 

111
00:06:07,410 --> 00:06:13,070
And I did and it tasted like. 
Yeah, that's actually the worst 

112
00:06:13,070 --> 00:06:15,030
shot I've ever had. 
And you were at my 21st 

113
00:06:15,030 --> 00:06:16,710
birthday. 
You've know, you know, I've 

114
00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:20,390
taken some questionable shots. 
Yeah, and I remember you 

115
00:06:20,390 --> 00:06:22,030
projectile vomiting in a piece 
of bread. 

116
00:06:22,030 --> 00:06:29,350
So it wasn't a great time. 21 
came difficult for me, but 

117
00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:31,870
enough embarrassing myself to 
the audience. 

118
00:06:33,630 --> 00:06:36,310
Let's talk about before we get 
into the movie, let's talk about

119
00:06:36,310 --> 00:06:38,430
kind of where we are in Godzilla
history. 

120
00:06:40,430 --> 00:06:43,270
So obviously all through season 
three we've been covering the, 

121
00:06:43,350 --> 00:06:47,150
hey say, era of movies, which is
this sort of rebooted series of 

122
00:06:47,150 --> 00:06:51,550
movies that takes into account 
the very original, highly 

123
00:06:51,550 --> 00:06:55,430
regarded 1954 Godzilla and then 
said, but everything after that 

124
00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:57,390
didn't happen. 
We're just starting fresh from 

125
00:06:57,390 --> 00:07:00,230
the original. 
We made a new Godzilla 2 in the 

126
00:07:00,230 --> 00:07:03,550
early 80s. 
That is now like the first time 

127
00:07:03,550 --> 00:07:07,030
Godzilla has reappeared since 
the 1950s. 

128
00:07:07,970 --> 00:07:11,930
And we've had this, this series 
of movies through the 80s and 

129
00:07:11,930 --> 00:07:15,170
90s. 
We had Godzilla versus Biolante,

130
00:07:15,370 --> 00:07:17,810
We had Godzilla versus King 
Gdora and then Godzilla versus 

131
00:07:17,810 --> 00:07:23,210
Mothra. 
And what we have found, I was 

132
00:07:23,210 --> 00:07:27,370
worried because anytime you come
into the 90s, right, the 90s is 

133
00:07:27,370 --> 00:07:30,370
a bad time for geek media, 
right? 

134
00:07:30,370 --> 00:07:33,330
This is this is the era when 
things get big, flashy and 

135
00:07:33,330 --> 00:07:36,940
stupid. 
So I was worried, but it it 

136
00:07:36,940 --> 00:07:41,340
turns out that up till today's 
movie at least, not to spoil 

137
00:07:41,340 --> 00:07:44,460
anything, you know, I want us to
kind of get to that as we come. 

138
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:47,980
But like, these movies have been
relatively sharp. 

139
00:07:48,060 --> 00:07:52,380
They've had a lot to say about, 
you know, things like 

140
00:07:52,380 --> 00:07:54,100
nationalism and 
environmentalism. 

141
00:07:54,100 --> 00:07:58,780
Like they've very much been in 
concert with and in tone in the 

142
00:07:58,780 --> 00:08:04,090
same tone of a lot of these, 
like, you know, pulpy but 

143
00:08:04,250 --> 00:08:08,170
humanist and progressive, like 
sixty 50s and 60s scifi movies. 

144
00:08:08,730 --> 00:08:11,250
I'm glad that it sounds like you
and I are in the same camp on 

145
00:08:11,250 --> 00:08:14,370
where this movie is. 
I think so, which is not to say 

146
00:08:14,370 --> 00:08:16,570
I'm down on it, but like it's 
going to be a complicated 

147
00:08:16,570 --> 00:08:21,850
discussion today. 
But you know the the hey Say era

148
00:08:21,850 --> 00:08:24,010
hasn't always gone super well, 
right? 

149
00:08:24,010 --> 00:08:26,890
Like, Return of Godzilla did 
really good, but then Godzilla 

150
00:08:26,890 --> 00:08:30,290
versus Biolante barely made its 
money back, you know, So then 

151
00:08:30,290 --> 00:08:32,970
they went, OK, well, all we're 
going to do now is just bring 

152
00:08:32,970 --> 00:08:35,010
back famous Godzilla and don't 
do anything new. 

153
00:08:35,010 --> 00:08:36,770
Bring back famous Godzilla 
monsters. 

154
00:08:36,770 --> 00:08:39,330
And you know, Godzilla versus 
King Gadora was still some 

155
00:08:39,330 --> 00:08:41,049
pretty bold storytelling 
choices. 

156
00:08:41,049 --> 00:08:45,570
Is a very weird time travel 
movie, is very, very like openly

157
00:08:45,570 --> 00:08:48,010
antinationalist. 
But I mean, they just brought 

158
00:08:48,010 --> 00:08:51,210
back King Gadora, right? 
In a kind of a weird new 

159
00:08:51,210 --> 00:08:53,170
version. 
Then we had Godzilla versus 

160
00:08:53,170 --> 00:08:55,610
Mothra and Godzilla versus 
Mothra. 

161
00:08:56,140 --> 00:09:02,260
I thought was a super faithful 
recreation of the 60s, right? 

162
00:09:02,260 --> 00:09:04,860
Like purely it was so 50s and 
60s. 

163
00:09:04,860 --> 00:09:07,020
It was so perfect. 
It made so much money. 

164
00:09:07,140 --> 00:09:12,820
People loved Mothra. 
So where we're at now is these 

165
00:09:12,820 --> 00:09:15,060
movies are finally making money 
again, and they think they 

166
00:09:15,060 --> 00:09:18,940
finally nailed what they think 
they need to do to keep being 

167
00:09:18,940 --> 00:09:21,860
successful. 
They wanted Toho wanted to make 

168
00:09:22,340 --> 00:09:28,400
one final movie in the Hey say 
era is a few reasons for this. 

169
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:34,240
One of which is that Ishiro 
Honda died, right? 

170
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,080
The director of the original 
film passed away very shortly 

171
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,000
after the release of Godzilla 
versus Mothra. 

172
00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:43,840
So you know this was meant to be
like okay. 

173
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,320
Well, we'll honor him with one 
more and then put it on ice. 

174
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:53,660
Also, Tristar was in the process
of working on, you know, an 

175
00:09:53,660 --> 00:09:58,260
American Godzilla movie. 
Now this is this is 1993, so 

176
00:09:58,460 --> 00:10:00,540
that this move that today's 
movie releases. 

177
00:10:00,540 --> 00:10:05,860
So technically we're talking, I 
don't know exactly how the 

178
00:10:05,860 --> 00:10:09,460
timeline on this match is up, 
but the original plan was for 

179
00:10:09,460 --> 00:10:13,860
Sony's Godzilla movie to release
in 1994. 

180
00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:16,340
So the thought was, well, we'll 
make this one and then we'll get

181
00:10:16,340 --> 00:10:19,670
the fuck out of the way for the 
tristar Godzilla. 

182
00:10:19,830 --> 00:10:23,190
That movie famously had a very, 
very difficult and troubled, 

183
00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:28,590
like production history, so that
doesn't hit until 1998. 

184
00:10:30,350 --> 00:10:32,590
But anyways, this is planned to 
be the last one. 

185
00:10:32,830 --> 00:10:35,190
And they're like, OK, well, we 
want to go out with a bang. 

186
00:10:35,230 --> 00:10:36,790
What's the biggest thing we can 
do? 

187
00:10:37,590 --> 00:10:40,710
And just like before they go, 
well, the biggest thing we can 

188
00:10:40,710 --> 00:10:43,970
do is King Kong. 
And once again, King Kong. 

189
00:10:43,970 --> 00:10:46,890
The Diva was not taking their 
phone calls for some fucking 

190
00:10:46,890 --> 00:10:50,210
reason I don't. 
Isn't King Kong Public Domain? 

191
00:10:51,050 --> 00:10:54,210
I don't think he was at that 
point like he is now. 

192
00:10:54,210 --> 00:10:58,410
This works out, but like, it's 
because because I thought that I

193
00:10:58,410 --> 00:11:00,450
remember originally saying, Oh 
yeah, there were definitely 

194
00:11:00,450 --> 00:11:03,490
licensing issues back for like 
Godzilla versus King Ghidorah, 

195
00:11:03,690 --> 00:11:07,050
But I've looked it up since then
and remembered like Nintendo was

196
00:11:07,050 --> 00:11:10,010
fighting over this with Donkey 
Kong in the 80s. 

197
00:11:10,130 --> 00:11:12,930
So who? 
Owns the rights to King Kong now

198
00:11:13,410 --> 00:11:15,970
because they're making King Kong
versus Godzilla and they're 

199
00:11:15,970 --> 00:11:18,850
making a second one. 
So is it the same studio? 

200
00:11:19,210 --> 00:11:22,570
That's a good question. 
I don't, I don't think it was 

201
00:11:22,570 --> 00:11:25,810
Universal that went to fight 
with Nintendo over the rights to

202
00:11:25,810 --> 00:11:30,010
Donkey Kong. 
But the way I read that was that

203
00:11:30,010 --> 00:11:32,370
like King Kong was public domain
then. 

204
00:11:33,010 --> 00:11:36,100
So I don't know what the fuck is
going on. 

205
00:11:36,300 --> 00:11:39,140
But apparently shit gets 
complicated because they're 

206
00:11:39,140 --> 00:11:44,500
legally not allowed to use King 
Kong again and I don't. 

207
00:11:44,740 --> 00:11:48,420
You know, one of these days I'll
have a I will hire a lawyer to 

208
00:11:48,420 --> 00:11:50,380
explain to me what the fuck 
happened here. 

209
00:11:51,540 --> 00:11:55,260
But it's not I. 
Looked up ownership rights King 

210
00:11:55,260 --> 00:11:58,500
Kong. 
This is the longest section of 

211
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:00,060
the Wikipedia article. 
Oh my God. 

212
00:12:00,580 --> 00:12:02,490
Oh my God. 
So I just. 

213
00:12:02,930 --> 00:12:04,930
Here's the problem I should not 
have taken. 

214
00:12:05,250 --> 00:12:09,250
The wig of Coke 0 the moment you
said that, because it's in my 

215
00:12:09,250 --> 00:12:15,050
nose now. 
Hang on, I'm waiting it now. 

216
00:12:15,610 --> 00:12:21,370
So it was ruled in N936 that 
King Kong is public domain. 

217
00:12:21,730 --> 00:12:23,810
In 1976 it was ruled. 
Actually, no, it's not. 

218
00:12:23,810 --> 00:12:28,850
It just would take vaccines. 
Yeah, yeah. 

219
00:12:29,690 --> 00:12:33,450
Jesus Christ. 
Well and then on top of that, 

220
00:12:33,450 --> 00:12:38,250
because they'd already used a 
like King Kong version at Toho 

221
00:12:38,570 --> 00:12:41,690
was their legal version 
specifically with the Toho King 

222
00:12:41,690 --> 00:12:44,810
Kong where like somebody 
involved with the creation of 

223
00:12:44,810 --> 00:12:48,170
those early movies was was a 
blockade. 

224
00:12:48,170 --> 00:12:52,050
Like, I I don't fucking know 
because I also remember I used 

225
00:12:52,050 --> 00:12:55,490
to be talk to like the guy one 
of the guys who worked at pipe 

226
00:12:55,490 --> 00:12:58,430
Works making the Godzilla 
fighting games and I remember 

227
00:12:58,430 --> 00:13:01,070
him talking about how difficult 
it was to and impossible to get 

228
00:13:01,070 --> 00:13:03,390
the green light for King Kong in
those. 

229
00:13:03,510 --> 00:13:07,270
So anyway, Toho was like, we're 
going to go out on it with a 

230
00:13:07,270 --> 00:13:10,030
bang. 
King Kong, oops, we can't 

231
00:13:10,030 --> 00:13:15,630
fucking do that. 
So what they did instead was 

232
00:13:16,110 --> 00:13:20,830
give us today's movie, which is 
jam packed with stuff from 

233
00:13:20,870 --> 00:13:23,670
earlier hey say movies, as well 
as like classic. 

234
00:13:23,950 --> 00:13:28,280
Like reimaginings of classic 
like Shoah era, Godzilla 

235
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,920
monsters, which we will get to 
in due time. 

236
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:39,560
In the Plot Summary we did in in
regards to the actual talent 

237
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:41,920
behind the movie, see a few 
changeups. 

238
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,920
One is that the writer has 
changed. 

239
00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:49,880
It's no longer the writer and 
director who's been involved 

240
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,720
heavily through the hey say 
movies up till now. 

241
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:58,030
Why am I blanking on his name? 
Let me look at them up real 

242
00:13:58,030 --> 00:14:00,310
quick because I feel bad not 
saying his name. 

243
00:14:01,950 --> 00:14:05,910
The Kazuki Omori. 
So Omori is no longer writing 

244
00:14:05,910 --> 00:14:08,550
the script behind this movie. 
It is a new writer named Watari 

245
00:14:08,550 --> 00:14:12,470
Mimura Mimura. 
This is his first writing credit

246
00:14:12,470 --> 00:14:16,110
that I could find, but he would 
go on to write several of the 

247
00:14:16,110 --> 00:14:18,270
like Millennium era Godzilla 
movies. 

248
00:14:18,270 --> 00:14:20,510
So this dude stays involved with
the franchise. 

249
00:14:21,230 --> 00:14:24,740
But this is a different dude 
writing the script from most of 

250
00:14:24,740 --> 00:14:29,620
the 80s and 90s movies till now.
Our director is the same 

251
00:14:29,620 --> 00:14:31,460
director who did Godzilla versus
Mothra. 

252
00:14:31,460 --> 00:14:35,340
It's Takao Okawarra. 
Interesting thing. 

253
00:14:35,420 --> 00:14:40,820
I read several places, although 
I could not find an actual 

254
00:14:40,820 --> 00:14:45,100
citation of this, that this 
movie was supposed to be 

255
00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:50,420
directed by Ishiro Honda. 
Again, this is the thing that 

256
00:14:50,420 --> 00:14:54,740
like fans keep commenting places
and like it's on TV tropes with 

257
00:14:54,740 --> 00:14:57,300
no citations. 
So like, take that with a like a

258
00:14:57,380 --> 00:14:59,860
a fucking entire banishing 
crystal of salt. 

259
00:15:01,420 --> 00:15:06,100
But that would explain why Honda
was hanging around on set. 

260
00:15:06,660 --> 00:15:10,300
You know towards the end of 
Godzilla versus Mothra, right? 

261
00:15:10,300 --> 00:15:14,940
As if he was being corded to do 
you know, the next and maybe 

262
00:15:14,940 --> 00:15:17,840
final Godzilla movie. 
Kind of like they did with 

263
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,320
Terror of Mecca Godzilla back in
the show era. 

264
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,240
But of course he died. 
So Okawarra gets the job again. 

265
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,080
And then special effects, 
supervision. 

266
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,040
It's still Kawakita. 
That ain't changing. 

267
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,440
He's been here since the 
beginning. 

268
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,880
He's going to keep being here 
through the, hey say era. 

269
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,960
And then the music, It's Akira 
EFA Kube again. 

270
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,760
You can fucking tell. 
Because EFA Kube is 

271
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:48,850
irreplaceable, so it's a pretty 
good talent and a pretty 

272
00:15:48,850 --> 00:15:51,850
consistent set of talent behind 
this movie compared to the rest 

273
00:15:51,850 --> 00:15:55,370
of the, hey say era. 
It's just a new writer and it's 

274
00:15:55,370 --> 00:15:57,890
somebody that Toho would like 
and trust enough to keep 

275
00:15:57,890 --> 00:16:00,650
bringing Mimura back in the 
future. 

276
00:16:01,130 --> 00:16:07,410
So with all of that set, 
Charlotte, why don't you tell us

277
00:16:07,410 --> 00:16:11,330
what happens in Godzilla versus 
Mecca Godzilla 2? 

278
00:16:12,350 --> 00:16:15,070
All right, let's start. 
Let's actually, before I do 

279
00:16:15,070 --> 00:16:17,950
that, because I've lied to you, 
I'm not giving you the car keys 

280
00:16:17,950 --> 00:16:19,670
yet. 
We do have to talk about the 

281
00:16:19,670 --> 00:16:20,910
title. 
Godzilla versus Mecca. 

282
00:16:20,910 --> 00:16:23,350
Godzilla too. 
Yeah, because I looked into this

283
00:16:23,350 --> 00:16:25,830
because obviously I'm coming 
into this up on the eyes of 

284
00:16:25,830 --> 00:16:28,870
somebody who's not. 
I've not seen a lot of Godzilla,

285
00:16:29,110 --> 00:16:33,150
and this is the American title, 
right? 

286
00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:37,800
This is the title in Japan. 
As well, why is this it called 

287
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,240
Godzilla versus Megazilla too, 
when there isn't A1 in this 

288
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,160
version of the timeline? 
It's because there is a Godzilla

289
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:50,080
versus Mecca Godzilla in 1974. 
It is purely that they are 

290
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,520
worried about confusing people 
because, and maybe this is a 

291
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,920
Japanese cultural thing. 
Maybe this is just something 

292
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,440
we're like we hadn't gotten as a
as a global culture is 

293
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,600
comfortable just reusing the 
names of shit were, you know, 

294
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:08,300
remaking or rebooting. 
But it was somehow more 

295
00:17:08,300 --> 00:17:09,660
confusing for me, which is the 
weird thing. 

296
00:17:09,940 --> 00:17:11,260
We'll get into it and we get the
recap. 

297
00:17:11,260 --> 00:17:14,380
But when you first came back 
with Zilla, I thought like, oh, 

298
00:17:14,660 --> 00:17:18,660
this is a recap of like the. 
Last one I thought like all that

299
00:17:18,660 --> 00:17:19,980
we built him or something. 
I didn't. 

300
00:17:21,180 --> 00:17:24,260
That's his first appearance in 
this universe in this series of 

301
00:17:24,260 --> 00:17:27,060
movies. 
Yes, you basically want to erase

302
00:17:27,060 --> 00:17:28,900
the two from the title in your 
head. 

303
00:17:28,900 --> 00:17:34,940
It's there to denote that it is 
not the 1970s movie, but it's. 

304
00:17:35,500 --> 00:17:38,340
I don't think it was a good 
call, but here we are. 

305
00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:42,500
This is what it is. 
Fair enough. 

306
00:17:42,820 --> 00:17:44,900
Yeah. 
It's funny because we almost had

307
00:17:44,900 --> 00:17:49,260
the same situation with Godzilla
versus Mothra, except the one in

308
00:17:49,580 --> 00:17:53,820
the Was it the late 50s and I 
think it was late 50s. 

309
00:17:53,820 --> 00:17:56,780
Was Mothra versus Godzilla? 
It was. 

310
00:17:57,020 --> 00:18:00,340
The only ones you can, the only 
one you can really get away 

311
00:18:00,340 --> 00:18:02,700
with, is called your movie 
Godzilla Again. 

312
00:18:03,420 --> 00:18:04,700
Which is they've done three 
times. 

313
00:18:04,700 --> 00:18:08,100
Now you can get away with that 
because it's the name of the 

314
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:11,860
character, like it's the name of
the main star, but this is just 

315
00:18:11,860 --> 00:18:14,180
confusing. 
So they do another Godzilla 

316
00:18:14,180 --> 00:18:17,100
versus Mecca Godzilla in the the
early 2000s. 

317
00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:21,380
And they do change the title in 
order to not run into this 

318
00:18:21,380 --> 00:18:25,100
confusion, again, because it's 
clear Toho does not like reusing

319
00:18:25,100 --> 00:18:27,860
titles. 
But this approach didn't fucking

320
00:18:27,860 --> 00:18:31,180
work, and I think it probably 
confuses a lot of casual folks, 

321
00:18:31,610 --> 00:18:33,650
even if the explanation is very 
simple. 

322
00:18:34,610 --> 00:18:38,250
Why the fuck is this Godzilla 
versus Mecca Godzilla 2 anyway? 

323
00:18:38,250 --> 00:18:41,770
Charlotte, keys to the car. 
Bam, you got the wheel drive. 

324
00:18:42,490 --> 00:18:45,250
All right, well, I thought that 
it was called that because when 

325
00:18:45,250 --> 00:18:47,610
it combined with Goruda, that 
was supposed to be Mecca 

326
00:18:47,690 --> 00:18:50,090
Godzilla 2. 
But anyway, that's super Mecca 

327
00:18:50,090 --> 00:18:52,010
Godzilla. 
It is. 

328
00:18:52,450 --> 00:18:54,490
They do call it that. 
We'll get to that letter, but 

329
00:18:55,170 --> 00:18:58,850
yeah, all I'll say is the 2nd 
that happened. 

330
00:18:58,850 --> 00:19:02,410
I checked the dates for when the
first time Power Ranger's head 

331
00:19:02,410 --> 00:19:03,650
was. 
That I had to know. 

332
00:19:06,570 --> 00:19:08,210
Yeah, there's okay. 
Never mind. 

333
00:19:08,210 --> 00:19:09,330
I'll get to that. 
We'll get to this one. 

334
00:19:09,370 --> 00:19:13,610
Cold opens to like, one of the 
mechanical heads that they've 

335
00:19:13,610 --> 00:19:18,090
fished up from the ocean. 
Yeah, Mecca Kinggidora is 

336
00:19:18,090 --> 00:19:19,650
mechanical head, the middle 
head. 

337
00:19:19,730 --> 00:19:22,940
Right, so. 
Here's my first question, and 

338
00:19:22,940 --> 00:19:24,780
there's going to be a lot of 
things, so bear with me. 

339
00:19:25,860 --> 00:19:29,780
So there's two questions about 
me making a dollar they make. 

340
00:19:29,820 --> 00:19:33,500
There's a line here where they 
state he's from the future. 

341
00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:36,740
Yes, yes. 
What the fuck? 

342
00:19:37,820 --> 00:19:42,010
Yeah, Godzilla versus King 
Ghidora had people from OK, we 

343
00:19:42,010 --> 00:19:45,090
need to do a quick plot recap 
because that's the thing. 

344
00:19:45,250 --> 00:19:48,410
Most other movies in this series
do not really care if you've 

345
00:19:48,410 --> 00:19:52,010
seen anything before them, but 
this opens on something that is 

346
00:19:52,010 --> 00:19:54,850
so specifically, like coming 
from a very. 

347
00:19:54,890 --> 00:19:58,410
Plot destiny. 
This this, this, this, this. 

348
00:19:58,410 --> 00:20:03,090
Like, I have a full document of 
note and the fourth note is all 

349
00:20:03,090 --> 00:20:04,890
cops. 
Wait, it's making yourself in 

350
00:20:04,890 --> 00:20:06,930
the fucking future? 
So. 

351
00:20:07,050 --> 00:20:10,490
King Gadora What happened is 
people from the future in a 

352
00:20:10,490 --> 00:20:14,090
timeline where Japan became so 
economically powerful they 

353
00:20:14,090 --> 00:20:19,210
became the New Evil Empire and 
Japan as a nation bought Africa 

354
00:20:19,210 --> 00:20:24,610
and South America. 
Bought, Bought like they own. 

355
00:20:26,010 --> 00:20:29,170
The Global South in the future 
and becomes the Evil Empire, 

356
00:20:29,940 --> 00:20:32,460
right? 
So, and this is a Japanese made 

357
00:20:32,460 --> 00:20:35,220
movie by the way. 
So, like, yeah, we're getting 

358
00:20:35,220 --> 00:20:36,780
into some really. 
I'm going to go. 

359
00:20:36,980 --> 00:20:39,540
I'm going to go with this 
because if I don't, we're going 

360
00:20:39,580 --> 00:20:42,980
to be here all day. 
So terrorists from the future 

361
00:20:42,980 --> 00:20:46,540
who want to stop that from 
happening come back to the past 

362
00:20:46,540 --> 00:20:49,620
in order to make it where 
Godzilla is never made, but 

363
00:20:49,620 --> 00:20:54,020
instead King Ghidorah is made 
from there like genetically 

364
00:20:54,020 --> 00:20:58,060
engineered, like pets. 
Like they make these three 

365
00:20:58,060 --> 00:21:00,620
little genetically engineered 
golden bat pets that they put 

366
00:21:00,860 --> 00:21:03,220
where the atomic bomb is going 
to drop in steads that they make

367
00:21:03,220 --> 00:21:05,780
King Gadora. 
By the way, we're pretty sure 

368
00:21:05,780 --> 00:21:09,460
that they made those genetically
engineered off of the corpse of 

369
00:21:09,460 --> 00:21:11,740
King Gadora that was already at 
the bottom of the ocean. 

370
00:21:11,740 --> 00:21:16,460
In the future, what happens is 
they make King Gadora, but they 

371
00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:18,900
don't actually succeed in not 
making Godzilla. 

372
00:21:19,020 --> 00:21:22,660
So Godzilla kills King Gadora, 
then King Gadora's body ends up 

373
00:21:22,660 --> 00:21:25,740
in the bottom of the ocean where
it already was in the future. 

374
00:21:26,180 --> 00:21:28,700
So in the future, they decide 
what they need to do is they 

375
00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:32,820
need to put mechanical Cyborg 
parts on King Gadora's corpse 

376
00:21:32,820 --> 00:21:36,820
instead and send it back to the 
past to fight Godzilla, where it

377
00:21:36,860 --> 00:21:39,940
only sort of succeeds it it 
beats him, but it gets 

378
00:21:39,940 --> 00:21:44,590
destroyed, putting it back on 
the bottom of the ocean and by 

379
00:21:44,590 --> 00:21:45,870
the way, where it where it's 
been. 

380
00:21:45,870 --> 00:21:48,830
Fished out, by the way, because 
they fish out all the mechanical

381
00:21:48,830 --> 00:21:52,790
parts to make Mecca Godzilla 
leaves the original King Gadora 

382
00:21:52,790 --> 00:21:56,350
corpse to be found in the future
to be it's hang. 

383
00:21:57,150 --> 00:22:00,630
On Godzilla Versus King Gadora 
is so dense so. 

384
00:22:01,310 --> 00:22:05,190
It is a stable time loop movie 
with like 3 internal stable time

385
00:22:05,190 --> 00:22:06,150
loops. 
It's insane. 

386
00:22:07,030 --> 00:22:13,360
This movie is a lot simpler but.
So we've probably like because 

387
00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:19,000
the people who fish up Mecca 
Godola are what's the what's in 

388
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,480
the government agency. 
Yeah, right. 

389
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,640
So there's two things. 
One I can't hear that without 

390
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,360
thinking of the Disney movie, 
but. 

391
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,080
Is that? 
Why is there an entire 

392
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,480
government agency stopping one 
guy who seems to appear? 

393
00:22:36,210 --> 00:22:39,370
Totally infrequent. 
Like AP is a totally infrequent 

394
00:22:39,370 --> 00:22:41,090
intervals. 
And it's not just him. 

395
00:22:41,290 --> 00:22:42,610
Why is it? 
Why is it just antique? 

396
00:22:42,610 --> 00:22:46,010
Why is it just like this is the 
Godzilla force like it's the is 

397
00:22:46,010 --> 00:22:49,210
the Martha force? 
Well, no, because Martha is not 

398
00:22:49,250 --> 00:22:52,450
an antagonistic force, right? 
Like this kind of does make 

399
00:22:52,450 --> 00:22:57,850
sense in context because every 
other problem in this series of 

400
00:22:57,850 --> 00:23:00,890
movies. 
Well, there's only been two, 

401
00:23:01,170 --> 00:23:03,630
right? 
There's by Alante, which was 

402
00:23:03,630 --> 00:23:05,990
manmade. 
So oops, that's on us. 

403
00:23:05,990 --> 00:23:08,910
We fucked up. 
Then there's King Ghidora, which

404
00:23:08,910 --> 00:23:10,670
is sort of manmade. 
That's an oops. 

405
00:23:10,670 --> 00:23:16,350
We fucked up. 
Mothra is on the side of people,

406
00:23:16,350 --> 00:23:21,470
so Mothra is not a problem. 
Batra was a problem, but Batra's

407
00:23:21,470 --> 00:23:24,610
dead. 
So, like, they're just kind of 

408
00:23:24,610 --> 00:23:26,810
looking at Godzilla, Like, hey, 
this motherfucker does wander 

409
00:23:26,810 --> 00:23:30,810
ashore and blow up cities every 
so often we could get. 

410
00:23:31,730 --> 00:23:33,810
Yeah, we could maybe make that 
not happen. 

411
00:23:34,090 --> 00:23:38,090
So they fish up the robot from 
the future to make a super 

412
00:23:38,090 --> 00:23:39,890
robot. 
Right. 

413
00:23:40,010 --> 00:23:44,210
But as far as it also being 
like, it's also a an 

414
00:23:44,210 --> 00:23:47,810
organization that exists 
basically to create super 

415
00:23:47,810 --> 00:23:50,250
weapons, primarily to fight 
Godzilla. 

416
00:23:50,250 --> 00:23:52,770
But I also think that there's 
just kind of the undercurrent of

417
00:23:52,770 --> 00:23:55,010
like. 
This is a weapons development 

418
00:23:55,010 --> 00:23:57,490
Division. 
I think Godzilla is the 

419
00:23:57,490 --> 00:23:59,490
weirdest. 
Thing they have Ideally, if 

420
00:23:59,490 --> 00:24:02,610
Mecca Godzilla had like 
succeeded in killing Godzilla, 

421
00:24:03,250 --> 00:24:06,370
like in theory we would have the
Mecca Godzilla robot that could 

422
00:24:06,370 --> 00:24:08,970
kill anything else that comes 
down the road. 

423
00:24:10,170 --> 00:24:15,130
So, which I mean with hindsight 
that we're going to have later 

424
00:24:15,370 --> 00:24:19,130
probably would not have actually
helped, but that is for 

425
00:24:19,130 --> 00:24:22,730
something for us to deal with in
a couple episodes, not today. 

426
00:24:23,660 --> 00:24:27,380
So they've they've fished up 
that mechanical head and they 

427
00:24:27,380 --> 00:24:31,100
are certain that this time, this
time, they're going to destroy 

428
00:24:31,100 --> 00:24:37,740
Godzilla. 
It's the year 1992 and they have

429
00:24:37,740 --> 00:24:41,140
established the National G 
Countermeasures Center to 

430
00:24:41,140 --> 00:24:43,500
develop a battle machine to 
fight Godzilla. 

431
00:24:43,940 --> 00:24:46,300
And they have this this one 
machine that they've made which 

432
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:49,140
is basically just like a plain. 
Thing. 

433
00:24:49,420 --> 00:24:51,460
Like a plain Mac, I hoped it 
would transform. 

434
00:24:51,460 --> 00:24:52,860
I thought I was going to be like
a Valkyrie. 

435
00:24:52,940 --> 00:24:55,900
It wasn't, but it's called 
Goruda. 

436
00:24:56,860 --> 00:24:59,420
They made the shitty unit, the 
shitty like support unit and 

437
00:24:59,420 --> 00:25:02,780
Super Robot Wars that you only 
use in the first mission where 

438
00:25:02,780 --> 00:25:06,100
you get it because you have to, 
and then it gets put on the 

439
00:25:06,100 --> 00:25:08,500
sidelines for the rest of the 
game because you're like, why 

440
00:25:08,540 --> 00:25:12,300
would I get the scene? 
Later, that makes what that jet 

441
00:25:12,300 --> 00:25:16,220
look like, A Starbucks jet. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

442
00:25:19,410 --> 00:25:22,890
So they. 
Are working currently on the new

443
00:25:22,890 --> 00:25:27,410
Mecca Godzilla using that head 
and it's nuclear powered. 

444
00:25:27,850 --> 00:25:31,890
It has the NT1 alloy which I I 
did not look up to see if that 

445
00:25:32,050 --> 00:25:36,410
if this came out before or after
Gun to Malik's existed after 

446
00:25:36,570 --> 00:25:38,970
but. 
OK, well there you go. 

447
00:25:39,450 --> 00:25:42,850
And then it was coded in 
artificial diamond so that if it

448
00:25:42,850 --> 00:25:46,370
gets hit by Godzilla's atomic 
breath, it would reflect it back

449
00:25:46,370 --> 00:25:48,250
at at Godzilla. 
Because they. 

450
00:25:48,870 --> 00:25:51,190
They love to do that. 
That's like the first thing they

451
00:25:51,190 --> 00:25:52,230
think of. 
That's what they did with the 

452
00:25:52,230 --> 00:25:54,270
Super X and it didn't fucking 
work there. 

453
00:25:54,270 --> 00:25:56,550
Although it no. 
It does work with Mecca, 

454
00:25:56,550 --> 00:25:59,510
Godzilla, just with other 
problems, but yeah. 

455
00:26:00,430 --> 00:26:03,430
They also have laser tanks that 
exist just because Godzilla does

456
00:26:03,430 --> 00:26:05,870
so right. 
By. 

457
00:26:06,550 --> 00:26:09,310
OK, because this is built, 
there's a whole new economy 

458
00:26:09,310 --> 00:26:10,990
because of Godzilla, baby. 
So this is. 

459
00:26:10,990 --> 00:26:13,470
This is. 
So as we've established already,

460
00:26:13,470 --> 00:26:16,310
this is the time loop. 
Doesn't the time loop guarantee 

461
00:26:16,310 --> 00:26:20,280
that this fails? 
No, the we're already outside of

462
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,200
the time loop. 
All the time loop stuff is 

463
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,120
inside Godzilla versus King 
Gdora. 

464
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,360
Why does that makes? 
More sense, yeah. 

465
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,040
Yeah, the. 
Difference between the this time

466
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,760
and the original time is when 
Godzilla first appears and 

467
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:41,010
attacks Japan, which has changed
sort of because of them moving 

468
00:26:41,010 --> 00:26:43,690
him and Godzilla versus King 
Gdora Sort of. 

469
00:26:43,890 --> 00:26:47,610
Again, it's not totally clean 
because in the original show you

470
00:26:47,610 --> 00:26:51,570
had or not original show in the 
original like Showa era of 

471
00:26:51,570 --> 00:26:55,610
movies you had shit like aliens 
that are not a thing in this 

472
00:26:55,610 --> 00:26:59,330
timeline. 
But broadly speaking, you know 

473
00:26:59,330 --> 00:27:03,290
if you don't nitpick on details,
the idea is Godzilla versus King

474
00:27:03,290 --> 00:27:06,250
Gdora is why there is an 80s and
90s series. 

475
00:27:08,970 --> 00:27:13,130
So a scientist and and a lady go
down to where the guru is kept. 

476
00:27:13,970 --> 00:27:17,130
And Cosuma, our main boy 
dinosaur boy as he'll soon be 

477
00:27:17,130 --> 00:27:19,810
known, introduces himself to 
Yuri. 

478
00:27:19,810 --> 00:27:23,410
Who's that? 
The lady that's there, and she's

479
00:27:23,410 --> 00:27:26,050
being stationed there and he's 
very excited for this because 

480
00:27:26,050 --> 00:27:29,010
he's like a woman. 
We could be friends. 

481
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,400
This happens. 
Mobile times in this movie? 

482
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,720
Yeah. 
Like, actually, no, you're not 

483
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,240
allowed to work around women. 
We're transferring you. 

484
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,800
This do three women in this 
movie and all three of them he 

485
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:44,360
comes on to in some way, yeah. 
Yeah, but no. 

486
00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:49,560
He's being reassigned to the 
aforementioned G Force and now 

487
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,560
Cosima. 
He's not good at anything, 

488
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,200
basically. 
He is, but you know. 

489
00:27:54,670 --> 00:27:56,350
We'll get that. 
Traditionally, he's not good at 

490
00:27:56,350 --> 00:27:58,230
anything. 
He's good at his hyper fixation 

491
00:27:58,230 --> 00:27:59,830
and that's about it. 
There's one, yeah. 

492
00:27:59,950 --> 00:28:01,870
There's no, but finally he's 
good at things. 

493
00:28:01,870 --> 00:28:04,910
As long as they have a vague. 
We'll get that there. 

494
00:28:05,070 --> 00:28:07,390
But he builds someone who has a 
vague correlation to his hyper 

495
00:28:07,390 --> 00:28:08,950
fixation. 
Yeah, and it's something that 

496
00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:11,470
only a high level engineer could
ever build. 

497
00:28:11,470 --> 00:28:17,540
This man's so into tyrannodons 
specifically that he invents a 

498
00:28:17,540 --> 00:28:21,500
flying like a a fucking anti 
gravity glider. 

499
00:28:21,740 --> 00:28:23,100
Well, OK. 
We'll get them. 

500
00:28:23,660 --> 00:28:27,820
But this questions about that I 
have, but there's no 

501
00:28:27,820 --> 00:28:30,620
neurotypical explanation for 
this matter, right? 

502
00:28:30,620 --> 00:28:33,780
Like we we are all clear on that
this is an autistic. 

503
00:28:33,820 --> 00:28:35,420
One, Yeah. 
Yeah. 

504
00:28:36,830 --> 00:28:39,790
So he heads to the to the G 
force center, right? 

505
00:28:39,790 --> 00:28:41,310
And the commander there looks 
over his side. 

506
00:28:41,390 --> 00:28:43,670
Is this Sorry? 
Is this after they reveal the 

507
00:28:43,670 --> 00:28:45,910
logo? 
I think so. 

508
00:28:46,390 --> 00:28:49,350
That okay. 
That logo reveal that music is 

509
00:28:49,350 --> 00:28:51,070
the coolest thing I've ever seen
in my entire life. 

510
00:28:51,070 --> 00:28:53,590
The vibes, like the vibes, are 
fucking good. 

511
00:28:53,590 --> 00:28:55,150
The vibes were. 
Immediately set. 

512
00:28:55,190 --> 00:28:58,590
It's like I was like, holy shit.
So. 

513
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,760
Yeah, he wrote Tyrannodon as his
hobby. 

514
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,360
Just the word Tyrannodon. 
So this is the first major thing

515
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:06,680
I wrote down. 
I was confused. 

516
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,080
I was confused about he just 
well he was asked his hobby. 

517
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,080
So first of all, what type of 
job application? 

518
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,240
Ask hobbies. 
I've never had one where where 

519
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,160
it's like, oh what job, but. 
He just. 

520
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,040
He. 
Didn't wait. 

521
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,960
Dinosaurs. 
He want a dinosaur? 

522
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,160
Yeah, just one. 
Just one. 

523
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:28,950
Dinosaur like I was, I was like.
This is the first one of this 

524
00:29:28,950 --> 00:29:31,990
movie, and there's a few where I
was like, this is a weird 

525
00:29:32,070 --> 00:29:35,190
writing decision. 
It's just because this boy is 

526
00:29:35,190 --> 00:29:37,390
something different, like we 
have to. 

527
00:29:37,470 --> 00:29:39,790
We we have to self that he likes
dinosaurs. 

528
00:29:39,990 --> 00:29:41,750
That's important. 
Fucking dinosaurs. 

529
00:29:42,070 --> 00:29:44,150
And he never. 
No, he likes this dinosaur. 

530
00:29:44,510 --> 00:29:47,150
It's important. 
Fuck every other dinosaur. 

531
00:29:48,870 --> 00:29:50,470
So then he goes. 
Through his little training 

532
00:29:50,470 --> 00:29:52,350
montage. 
And again, he's just not very 

533
00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:54,230
good at anything. 
I hate stop. 

534
00:29:54,230 --> 00:29:56,590
This so much but the training 
montage so. 

535
00:29:57,310 --> 00:30:00,550
They they they they trained them
in, they trained them in martial

536
00:30:00,550 --> 00:30:03,630
arts. 
Yeah, what the fuck are they 

537
00:30:03,630 --> 00:30:05,950
going to do? 
If if you get into a situation 

538
00:30:05,950 --> 00:30:09,630
where you need to use martial 
arts in in Against God's horse. 

539
00:30:10,230 --> 00:30:12,750
I feel like you've already lost 
well. 

540
00:30:13,190 --> 00:30:16,150
They have been in a situation 
where like another government 

541
00:30:16,150 --> 00:30:18,230
has come to try to sell like GC.
That's true. 

542
00:30:18,310 --> 00:30:19,390
That's true. 
We did. 

543
00:30:19,390 --> 00:30:22,950
We have had to deal with with 
intercontinental terrorism. 

544
00:30:22,950 --> 00:30:25,230
So this is no. 
Human, because there's no human 

545
00:30:25,230 --> 00:30:28,550
villains in this one. 
So to me, all I saw was the most

546
00:30:28,550 --> 00:30:32,230
expensive toy war by the history
and somebody training to like 

547
00:30:33,190 --> 00:30:36,770
like judo, flip, Godzilla. 
Yeah, which it must be clear 

548
00:30:36,770 --> 00:30:38,770
this is not like a G Gundam 
style. 

549
00:30:38,770 --> 00:30:40,850
Your martial arts will translate
to the robot. 

550
00:30:41,170 --> 00:30:44,810
This bitch has like a 747 
control panel, so. 

551
00:30:46,530 --> 00:30:48,690
They are trading them in what 
looks like karate. 

552
00:30:48,770 --> 00:30:52,050
It's just karate, yeah. 
It gets fucking flipped. 

553
00:30:52,050 --> 00:30:55,150
It's great, yeah. 
And he gets slipped. 

554
00:30:55,150 --> 00:30:57,830
By a woman and gives her a weird
look and it's really weird again

555
00:30:57,870 --> 00:31:00,310
and she's like, I got I want 
nothing to do with this dude. 

556
00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:05,470
Do not touch me, he has. 
Big like annoying puppy dog 

557
00:31:05,470 --> 00:31:08,030
energy. 
And I do kind of love him. 

558
00:31:08,030 --> 00:31:10,270
But yeah, by the time we. 
Got half of this movie, I fell 

559
00:31:10,270 --> 00:31:10,910
for it. 
Yeah. 

560
00:31:13,990 --> 00:31:17,550
So then we go over to a Dona 
island in the Bering Sea. 

561
00:31:18,660 --> 00:31:21,020
And there's like this group on 
there, that's on there for 

562
00:31:21,020 --> 00:31:23,060
research and there's a time. 
Jump here, right? 

563
00:31:23,260 --> 00:31:24,940
This is like two years later or 
something. 

564
00:31:24,940 --> 00:31:26,780
I think so, yeah. 
Yeah. 

565
00:31:26,860 --> 00:31:27,660
Yeah. 
Right, so. 

566
00:31:27,660 --> 00:31:29,540
He's been stationed there for 
two years now. 

567
00:31:31,020 --> 00:31:33,060
Because you don't. 
Because I only know that thanks 

568
00:31:33,060 --> 00:31:36,620
to the background we did, 
because the movie doesn't really

569
00:31:37,420 --> 00:31:39,900
like it, doesn't go into that 
well, it doesn't explain that 

570
00:31:39,900 --> 00:31:42,340
there was a two year because 
it's night 4 now, right? 

571
00:31:42,380 --> 00:31:45,170
Yes. 
Once again, like, it kind of 

572
00:31:45,170 --> 00:31:48,330
hopes and expects that you watch
Godzilla versus King Gdora and 

573
00:31:48,330 --> 00:31:51,410
just understand like, oh, this 
part is beginning, part is 

574
00:31:51,410 --> 00:31:54,650
taking place. 
You know, after they sunk King 

575
00:31:54,650 --> 00:31:59,730
Gdora into the ocean a couple 
years ago, Not, you know, Yeah. 

576
00:31:59,850 --> 00:32:02,450
Again, this is the only movie so
far that's been like this. 

577
00:32:02,450 --> 00:32:06,890
So yeah. 
So they're they're on this 

578
00:32:06,890 --> 00:32:09,610
island and there's. 
Like a group of researchers and 

579
00:32:09,610 --> 00:32:12,170
like one company guy and that 
company guy's like, yeah, we we 

580
00:32:12,170 --> 00:32:16,890
do offshore drilling here. 
So the the research team is 

581
00:32:16,890 --> 00:32:19,890
looking around the island and 
they find just a Tyrannodon 

582
00:32:19,890 --> 00:32:23,210
skeleton and like some eggs on 
the island and some prehistoric 

583
00:32:23,210 --> 00:32:25,010
plants that you should put a pen
in for later. 

584
00:32:27,010 --> 00:32:31,450
And so they they take this egg 
back to their camp, and because 

585
00:32:31,450 --> 00:32:36,370
they stole the dinosaur's egg, 
the dinosaur shows up and it's a

586
00:32:36,370 --> 00:32:40,430
Tyrannodon. 
Which swoops down and causes 

587
00:32:40,470 --> 00:32:43,710
like a fire basically with the 
with the, the blowback from its 

588
00:32:43,710 --> 00:32:46,470
wings and it's Rodan. 
Like, this is Rodan. 

589
00:32:46,790 --> 00:32:50,630
It's it's motherfucking Rodan. 
Yeah, it's a it's a it's. 

590
00:32:50,750 --> 00:32:53,470
A The introduce to us a taradon 
and then later it's a taradon. 

591
00:32:53,470 --> 00:32:54,830
They can also carpet pump 
people. 

592
00:32:55,830 --> 00:32:58,910
Yeah, Now the bullshit 
explanation that they get into 

593
00:32:59,070 --> 00:33:03,100
is that there is like. 
Just latent radiation on the 

594
00:33:03,100 --> 00:33:05,420
island, as they like, measure 
from the plants. 

595
00:33:05,420 --> 00:33:08,700
Which is why Rodan has been 
mutated from a regular 

596
00:33:08,700 --> 00:33:13,020
Tyrannodon, and why the other 
egg is the way that it is. 

597
00:33:13,380 --> 00:33:15,300
That's Okay and I. 
Could be wrong here, correct me 

598
00:33:15,300 --> 00:33:17,800
if I'm wrong. 
Do they ever go into Why the 

599
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,840
fuck does the dinosaur still 
here? 

600
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,080
No, but to be fair, you have to 
accept that because Godzilla 

601
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,840
versus King Gdora already said 
that there was just a regular 

602
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,760
ass dinosaur in the bikini. 
Itself that there was. 

603
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,840
You have to accept that there 
was time travel in this 

604
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:35,560
universe. 
Before the bombs in the the 

605
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:41,080
again, not the like bombing of 
Hiroshima, but the like a tests 

606
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:45,890
in the bikini at all. 
Godzilla was just a regular ass 

607
00:33:45,890 --> 00:33:49,010
dinosaur that happened to live 
in the bikini. 

608
00:33:49,010 --> 00:33:53,690
It's all in the 1950s. 
So yeah. 

609
00:33:54,650 --> 00:34:01,130
Yeah, yeah, don't overthink it. 
Yeah, yeah. 

610
00:34:01,250 --> 00:34:06,930
So the crew gets chased to shore
by Rodan, and then Godzilla 

611
00:34:06,930 --> 00:34:09,050
appears to make things worse. 
And then? 

612
00:34:09,290 --> 00:34:12,150
Start attacking Rodan. 
Just shows. 

613
00:34:12,230 --> 00:34:16,469
Up with his theme blowing and 
like so and I could be out of 

614
00:34:16,710 --> 00:34:18,830
it. 
It's at this point, Is Godzilla 

615
00:34:18,830 --> 00:34:20,469
still just a dude in a suit? 
Yes. 

616
00:34:21,550 --> 00:34:25,710
The way this is. 
Shot and the way it's framed at 

617
00:34:25,710 --> 00:34:29,070
night, you cannot tell that is a
guy in a suit. 

618
00:34:29,270 --> 00:34:33,790
It does something absurdly well 
produced, like the production 

619
00:34:33,790 --> 00:34:37,429
value on this shit, the like how
well they do their night shots, 

620
00:34:37,429 --> 00:34:38,989
how well these costumes are 
designed. 

621
00:34:40,380 --> 00:34:42,420
For me, it's the night shot in 
particular. 

622
00:34:43,739 --> 00:34:47,060
Cause like. 
The Hollywood era has this thing

623
00:34:47,060 --> 00:34:49,659
where they like everyone goes 
during the day and it just 

624
00:34:49,659 --> 00:34:52,980
doesn't look amazing like cause 
my background is the Hollywood 

625
00:34:53,060 --> 00:34:56,980
era Chin Godzilla and I think I 
see the original Godzilla and 

626
00:34:56,980 --> 00:34:59,900
obviously that was that looks 
that looks very thick now but 

627
00:34:59,900 --> 00:35:04,460
this even now I could I could if
I if I was you know a child I 

628
00:35:04,460 --> 00:35:06,220
could believe there's a giant 
lizard in Tokyo. 

629
00:35:06,340 --> 00:35:08,220
Yeah, like I could. 
I could believe that. 

630
00:35:08,730 --> 00:35:12,330
There's a presence to the like 
water dripping off Godzilla as 

631
00:35:12,330 --> 00:35:15,210
he comes out of the water. 
He's got, you know, he's got to.

632
00:35:15,210 --> 00:35:18,770
Wait to him like he like he 
feels massive away. 

633
00:35:18,770 --> 00:35:21,090
How you get all that in other 
shots, yeah. 

634
00:35:22,130 --> 00:35:23,490
When and when his. 
Theme starts. 

635
00:35:23,730 --> 00:35:26,010
I had two as he had. 
One, I was like, this is cool as

636
00:35:26,010 --> 00:35:27,330
this is the coolest thing I've 
ever heard. 

637
00:35:27,330 --> 00:35:31,730
And two, this is some more Joe's
theme from WWEI was like. 

638
00:35:32,090 --> 00:35:35,000
I was like. 
I know this music and then A and

639
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,080
then a Google. 
And I was like, Oh my God, this 

640
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:39,400
is God. 
Listen to this W. 

641
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,520
W E Like entrance music for sure
at this point. 

642
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,120
Didn't consider. 
Wrestle in the doy doy At one 

643
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,120
stage. 
It would not surprise me. 

644
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:51,480
I I do not know shit about the 
WWE, but if you, if you, if you 

645
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,320
like, fished up pictures of that
happening, I would be like, 

646
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,880
yeah, that's for sure. 
That definitely happened. 

647
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,680
I mean at 1:00. 
Point Vince McMahon fought Jesus

648
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,920
for God, so you know. 
Right, right, right. 

649
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,840
And the crew's been chased to 
shore and he's and Godzilla's in

650
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,360
the water. 
Godzilla is like, shows up 

651
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,520
immediately, starts blasting 
Rodan like first thing he does. 

652
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:19,080
And so the the crew is like, all
right, we got to get out of here

653
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,040
now. 
Like they're we we're leaving 

654
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,200
now. 
So I have gills. 

655
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,160
It's possible Godzilla just 
doesn't need to breathe. 

656
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,080
Yeah, just. 
Because when he comes out, came 

657
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,580
out the water. 
I I I immediately accept it 

658
00:36:32,580 --> 00:36:34,180
because it's like it's the 
iconic shot. 

659
00:36:34,180 --> 00:36:36,060
But I was like, does Godzilla 
breathe? 

660
00:36:36,780 --> 00:36:40,620
The understanding we've come to 
that many movies have kind of 

661
00:36:40,620 --> 00:36:43,060
explained in their own way and 
come to is that Godzilla does 

662
00:36:43,060 --> 00:36:45,100
not eat. 
Godzilla probably does not 

663
00:36:45,100 --> 00:36:49,460
breathe even because like last 
movie, we learned that this 

664
00:36:49,460 --> 00:36:53,140
motherfucker just breaks through
the crust into the mantle of the

665
00:36:53,180 --> 00:36:58,730
Earth sometimes to travel. 
Like basically all of his energy

666
00:36:58,770 --> 00:37:02,130
is provided by what is the 
equivalent of a nuclear reactor 

667
00:37:02,130 --> 00:37:05,850
inside his heart. 
So he is like a biological 

668
00:37:05,850 --> 00:37:10,530
reactor, right? 
But But yeah, so he's he, he, he

669
00:37:10,770 --> 00:37:13,890
he's he's underwater for however
the fuck long he don't breathe. 

670
00:37:14,250 --> 00:37:19,770
You can't choke him. 
Yeah, so they're trying to run 

671
00:37:19,770 --> 00:37:21,650
away. 
Godzilla moves in behind them, 

672
00:37:21,650 --> 00:37:23,890
but Rodan, like, heads it off 
again. 

673
00:37:24,750 --> 00:37:28,350
Godzilla does manage to fend off
Rodan as the crew basically 

674
00:37:28,350 --> 00:37:33,470
escapes the island and then 
Godzilla lands like one direct 

675
00:37:33,470 --> 00:37:35,910
blast on the Rodan, like 
launching it away. 

676
00:37:38,310 --> 00:37:40,470
And I was like okay well, I 
guess Rodan's dead. 

677
00:37:41,630 --> 00:37:43,190
They. 
Actually, this flight left at 

678
00:37:43,510 --> 00:37:44,910
the sea. 
Cool for it. 

679
00:37:45,790 --> 00:37:47,870
I mean, I turned it. 
We're 20 minutes at the 

680
00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:50,750
smoothie. 
And do you already seen 

681
00:37:50,750 --> 00:37:51,710
Godzilla? 
Godzilla. 

682
00:37:51,710 --> 00:37:57,060
Just leather. 
Rodan And it's it's it's the 

683
00:37:57,060 --> 00:37:58,980
coolest thing I've ever seen. 
Yeah Okay. 

684
00:37:59,140 --> 00:38:01,220
So if Godzilla's a kind to say 
what is Rodan? 

685
00:38:01,260 --> 00:38:05,380
Rodan is definitely in this 
movie, just a puppet of some 

686
00:38:05,380 --> 00:38:06,260
kind. 
Yeah, I had some. 

687
00:38:06,460 --> 00:38:09,660
I had some like Puppet. 
Yes, it is a prop and it is a 

688
00:38:09,660 --> 00:38:13,100
very detailed prop and puppet he
looks. 

689
00:38:13,300 --> 00:38:15,760
Really good. 
A lot of the close up shots of 

690
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,840
the head look good and whenever 
Rodin's flying it looks really 

691
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,160
good. 
It was, honestly. 

692
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:21,880
There's certain shots in this 
movie. 

693
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,040
I don't want this more 
technical. 

694
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,600
There's certain shots this movie
where I can tell that you see a 

695
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,640
so yeah and they but but there's
a lot there's a lot more shots 

696
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,280
where I don't know if it was 
done practically if it wasn't, 

697
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,760
which is weird because it 
nowadays the movies. 

698
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,000
I know. 
I mean you're like that's 

699
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,160
clearly fake. 
But like this is there's a craft

700
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:41,720
of this. 
There's so little you have to 

701
00:38:41,720 --> 00:38:43,880
think. 
Understand that like unless, 

702
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,840
especially because this is 1993,
like the CGI is going to be so 

703
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,160
obvious. 
So most of what you're seeing is

704
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,800
dudes in suits and puppets on 
strings and like building 

705
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,560
miniatures. 
And most the only CGI you're 

706
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,600
seeing is like when they have a 
fancy computer graphic on screen

707
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,560
of like a 3D render of Mecca 
Godzilla. 

708
00:39:04,940 --> 00:39:07,060
Or when there's like atomic 
breath and stuff. 

709
00:39:13,820 --> 00:39:16,660
But this movie looks leagues 
better than the 98 goods in that

710
00:39:16,660 --> 00:39:08,180
movie. 
Other than that, like they're 

711
00:39:08,180 --> 00:39:12,180
just blowing up pyrotechnics in 
little models, you know? 

712
00:39:12,420 --> 00:39:19,660
I know it's not. 
It looks so good. 

713
00:39:20,100 --> 00:39:21,140
Yeah. 
Anyway. 

714
00:39:21,980 --> 00:39:24,620
But it's it's super wild that 
like you're sitting here like, 

715
00:39:24,620 --> 00:39:26,780
oh wow, Rodin's in this movie. 
Cool. 

716
00:39:27,380 --> 00:39:30,460
And then it it kind of feels 
like Rodin has been killed off 

717
00:39:31,030 --> 00:39:32,990
in like a single fight. 
He's not. 

718
00:39:32,990 --> 00:39:37,110
But you're like, damn this. 
He was important because I've 

719
00:39:37,110 --> 00:39:38,910
seen some of the Hollywood 
movies. 

720
00:39:39,630 --> 00:39:41,870
I would have just assumed that 
was a dancer, yeah. 

721
00:39:44,630 --> 00:39:48,510
So the crew manages to bring the
egg home, and no one is more 

722
00:39:48,510 --> 00:39:52,270
excited about this than than 
Kosiva than dinosaurs he gets. 

723
00:39:52,830 --> 00:39:54,230
Really. 
Like he was watching the news 

724
00:39:54,230 --> 00:39:55,550
footage and he does a little 
dance. 

725
00:39:56,670 --> 00:39:59,670
He gets really. 
Like, he's so excited by this 

726
00:39:59,670 --> 00:40:01,890
news. 
Do you think he? 

727
00:40:02,370 --> 00:40:05,090
It was just like AT Mini T works
I guess, so we're going to find 

728
00:40:05,090 --> 00:40:08,210
out so. 
Yeah, we're going to get there. 

729
00:40:09,250 --> 00:40:11,730
Yeah. 
He gets in his little Tyrannodon

730
00:40:11,730 --> 00:40:13,570
mobile. 
It's just a car full of 

731
00:40:13,570 --> 00:40:17,050
Tyrannodon merchandise while 
he's wearing his Tyrannodon like

732
00:40:17,330 --> 00:40:20,170
hat and vest, keep in mind. 
He's at work. 

733
00:40:20,170 --> 00:40:23,890
He's just left. 
Yeah, he just. 

734
00:40:24,090 --> 00:40:26,410
He just he's clearly got 
changed. 

735
00:40:26,410 --> 00:40:28,650
I've left. 
Where is this man's parents? 

736
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:33,200
Who's. 
Who's mentoring this man? 

737
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,480
He's been at that place for two 
years and nobody's pulled up 

738
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:40,800
aside when you've got a cool it.
Dude got a cool it, so he. 

739
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,960
He takes his little tarot mobile
is what I wrote down to the 

740
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,320
tarandon ag, and he starts 
taking pictures of it, much to 

741
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,000
the chagrin of the researcher 
later. 

742
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,600
There. 
He yells. 

743
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,040
And scares the woman. 
It's like, what's going on. 

744
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:56,560
And then he jumps in with his 
camera. 

745
00:40:57,290 --> 00:40:58,970
And then he immediately looked 
at the woman. 

746
00:40:58,970 --> 00:41:01,050
See, she's a woman and got that 
flag immediate. 

747
00:41:01,050 --> 00:41:07,010
It's straight away. 
Yeah, so. 

748
00:41:07,010 --> 00:41:12,330
He is taking these pictures and 
he ends up just trying to touch 

749
00:41:12,330 --> 00:41:14,970
everything in the room. 
He'd like palms, some of the 

750
00:41:15,090 --> 00:41:18,450
some of the plant material, and 
I wasn't sure he'd done that 

751
00:41:18,450 --> 00:41:20,610
until later, but he takes it. 
Wait, what's that? 

752
00:41:20,970 --> 00:41:22,690
See, I thought that was a piece 
of egg. 

753
00:41:22,690 --> 00:41:26,170
Is that piece of plant. 
He took something off the egg. 

754
00:41:27,220 --> 00:41:28,820
But I. 
Thought that the stuff on her 

755
00:41:28,820 --> 00:41:32,980
desk was like the plant matter, 
not the egg, cuz when when when 

756
00:41:32,980 --> 00:41:36,020
she gets him to the door he's 
like, can I have a piece of the 

757
00:41:36,020 --> 00:41:39,060
egg And she says no. 
This might be explained the 

758
00:41:39,060 --> 00:41:39,980
movie. 
I might have missed it. 

759
00:41:39,980 --> 00:41:41,900
What hatched me like is that 
What time? 

760
00:41:42,980 --> 00:41:45,340
From the from the egg that was 
already hatched on the island, I

761
00:41:45,340 --> 00:41:48,420
think the implication is that 
was Rodan, yeah. 

762
00:41:48,740 --> 00:41:51,580
Right, that's. 
Because Rodan's basically fully 

763
00:41:51,580 --> 00:41:54,900
cloned dinosaur, I think the 
idea is Rodan is probably been 

764
00:41:54,900 --> 00:41:58,690
hatched for some time. 
Yeah, yeah. 

765
00:42:00,170 --> 00:42:03,970
So they talk about the fact that
the egg, like, changes colors 

766
00:42:04,050 --> 00:42:09,130
when it's emotional and it it 
really misses its mother, which 

767
00:42:09,130 --> 00:42:12,650
they assume is like Rodin. 
However, it also seems to 

768
00:42:12,650 --> 00:42:15,730
respond positively to Miss Gojo,
who's like the research lady 

769
00:42:15,730 --> 00:42:18,330
there. 
So they're like, okay? 

770
00:42:18,330 --> 00:42:19,570
Well, you've been imprinted 
upon. 

771
00:42:19,570 --> 00:42:22,650
You're the mother now. 
This is your responsibility now,

772
00:42:23,410 --> 00:42:27,640
yeah? 
And so we cut back to Cosima and

773
00:42:27,720 --> 00:42:31,440
and he's sitting next to Mickey 
in the mess hall and that's like

774
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:35,840
he's writing stuff down on on 
the plant like on the packaging 

775
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,960
for the plant. 
And she's like I feel something 

776
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,360
from this plant. 
We got to go right now because I

777
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:42,920
feel something from this plant 
right now. 

778
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,720
So they head over to the ESP 
Research Center. 

779
00:42:45,720 --> 00:42:46,440
Right? 
So and. 

780
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:50,160
This is, this is real, Yes. 
Yeah, this. 

781
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,110
Is so. 
Psychics are Real and Mickey 

782
00:42:53,110 --> 00:42:57,030
Segusa has been a major 
character in every movie so far.

783
00:42:57,030 --> 00:42:59,150
So, Mika. 
Segusa is a psychic. 

784
00:42:59,150 --> 00:43:02,910
This is a She's been since she 
was like 16 in Godzilla versus 

785
00:43:02,910 --> 00:43:05,030
Biolante. 
She has been the resident 

786
00:43:05,030 --> 00:43:07,350
psychic of note, so the head of 
the. 

787
00:43:07,550 --> 00:43:10,230
ESP. 
And it's filled with kids. 

788
00:43:11,510 --> 00:43:13,790
Yeah, all these kids. 
Are psychic, Yeah. 

789
00:43:14,790 --> 00:43:16,950
And we have to. 
We are and we have to. 

790
00:43:17,750 --> 00:43:20,190
That's like three whole movies 
ago at this point. 

791
00:43:21,220 --> 00:43:23,460
But these aren't just. 
These aren't clearly just not 

792
00:43:23,460 --> 00:43:28,380
psychics, because psychic, the 
psychics in common law can read 

793
00:43:28,460 --> 00:43:32,380
minds. 
These are. 

794
00:43:32,380 --> 00:43:34,740
Superheroes, these are straight 
up presses. 

795
00:43:34,860 --> 00:43:37,060
This is they have like freak on 
mission and shit. 

796
00:43:37,060 --> 00:43:38,100
Yeah, yeah, These are, these 
are. 

797
00:43:38,100 --> 00:43:39,380
Gene Grain Professional Xavier, 
These are. 

798
00:43:40,180 --> 00:43:43,060
Mutants. 
That can just do. 

799
00:43:43,700 --> 00:43:47,140
And nobody's scared about this. 
This is fine, psychic kids. 

800
00:43:48,220 --> 00:43:50,260
These are these are. 
These are scarier than Godzilla.

801
00:43:54,130 --> 00:43:56,130
Yeah. 
How does how does a how does a a

802
00:43:56,130 --> 00:44:01,730
growing generation of psychics 
and and and oracles. 

803
00:44:01,730 --> 00:44:04,370
Yeah, how does this change like 
humanity? 

804
00:44:04,370 --> 00:44:07,250
And the answer is, we got 
Godzilla to worry about. 

805
00:44:08,810 --> 00:44:10,970
Yeah. 
Everything else. 

806
00:44:11,410 --> 00:44:16,050
Slid by me. 
The psychics I am, I am, I am 

807
00:44:16,050 --> 00:44:17,730
flawed. 
There's a couple more moments of

808
00:44:17,730 --> 00:44:19,090
this that I am fucking flawed 
by. 

809
00:44:19,210 --> 00:44:20,950
But those psychics? 
And. 

810
00:44:21,590 --> 00:44:22,590
There was they. 
Could they? 

811
00:44:22,590 --> 00:44:26,870
Could destabilize the entire 
economy so much, Wilder, isn't 

812
00:44:26,870 --> 00:44:30,230
it, than you thought it was. 
Yeah, me and Charlotte are just 

813
00:44:30,310 --> 00:44:32,470
like this is normal. 
The 2014. 

814
00:44:32,550 --> 00:44:33,950
Movie. 
And I thought, Cuzilla's like, 

815
00:44:34,110 --> 00:44:35,870
because this is terrifying big 
monster. 

816
00:44:36,190 --> 00:44:38,630
And then I'm watching this and 
like, these kids could 

817
00:44:38,630 --> 00:44:41,270
destabilize the entire economy 
with a word, Yeah. 

818
00:44:41,790 --> 00:44:43,390
Like. 
That's how scary this is. 

819
00:44:43,510 --> 00:44:45,910
These kids could. 
Could ruin. 

820
00:44:45,950 --> 00:44:49,230
You're not busy talking to to 
Vines. 

821
00:44:52,180 --> 00:44:54,220
I've got to get pasta if we're 
going to keep going, but it's 

822
00:44:54,220 --> 00:44:57,100
just. 
So the. 

823
00:44:57,100 --> 00:45:00,260
Children use their powers on the
plant to try to read what the 

824
00:45:00,260 --> 00:45:04,860
plant like, what's up with it, 
and they managed to to process 

825
00:45:04,860 --> 00:45:09,660
that the plant is playing music 
somehow and they were able to 

826
00:45:09,660 --> 00:45:14,020
then also record that music. 
We've got Mecca, Godzilla, you 

827
00:45:14,020 --> 00:45:16,300
know what I mean? 
So, like, I'm not questioning 

828
00:45:16,300 --> 00:45:19,240
where they're they're, you know,
we haven't even. 

829
00:45:19,240 --> 00:45:22,040
Technically got to the first 
We're still like 10 minutes away

830
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,320
from the first appeal to Mecca 
Godzilla. 

831
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:28,360
Like, yeah, just it's it's just 
wild shit. 

832
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,080
This movie trades all politics 
and social commentary for just 

833
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:36,560
being as wild as possible. 
Yeah, so they. 

834
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:40,520
Play the music back for the egg 
and then the the egg glows and 

835
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:44,600
then hatches, but the egg 
hatches into another Godzilla. 

836
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,290
It is not a rodent egg. 
I was like. 

837
00:45:47,370 --> 00:45:50,850
Oh, how funny would it be? 
Like Baby Godzilla was just a 

838
00:45:50,850 --> 00:45:54,450
normal sized dude and very 
obviously a guy in like a soup. 

839
00:45:55,130 --> 00:45:59,090
And it's actually a pretty a 
pretty impressive like puppet. 

840
00:46:00,010 --> 00:46:01,290
Honestly, is it? 
Is it? 

841
00:46:01,330 --> 00:46:03,490
Is it a puppet, not a soup? 
I don't think is that. 

842
00:46:03,490 --> 00:46:04,170
I don't. 
Is it? 

843
00:46:04,170 --> 00:46:05,970
Maybe it's like a dude because 
it. 

844
00:46:06,050 --> 00:46:10,850
OK, it looks like you've reused 
model from Did you? 

845
00:46:11,490 --> 00:46:13,730
You guys are older than me, but 
did you ever ask kids, did you 

846
00:46:13,730 --> 00:46:15,290
ever watch dinosaurs? 
Yes. 

847
00:46:15,570 --> 00:46:18,660
Oh, yes. 
That is a model from dinosaurs. 

848
00:46:18,660 --> 00:46:20,860
I mean it kind of that's it's. 
Very similar. 

849
00:46:21,620 --> 00:46:23,460
That's the baby from dinosaurs. 
A lot of that facial, 

850
00:46:23,460 --> 00:46:26,140
animatronic stuff, well, no, but
hey, we're going to get way 

851
00:46:26,140 --> 00:46:30,580
closer to baby next movie. 
But but no, it's like a really 

852
00:46:30,580 --> 00:46:33,500
impressive. 
I think it is probably a dude in

853
00:46:33,500 --> 00:46:36,630
a suit, but the amount of 
animatronic work on the head and

854
00:46:36,630 --> 00:46:39,270
face there's definite. 
Scenes where it's a dude in a 

855
00:46:39,270 --> 00:46:42,830
suit and I and this is one of 
them where I was like when I 

856
00:46:42,830 --> 00:46:44,990
thought, oh, wouldn't it be 
funny if it was just a dude in a

857
00:46:44,990 --> 00:46:48,350
suit or and it was just a normal
sized guy, like just like just a

858
00:46:48,390 --> 00:46:54,310
dude, some T Rex jammies. 
Yeah, yeah, so while. 

859
00:46:54,310 --> 00:46:57,110
They're trying to determine what
happened here because it's not 

860
00:46:57,110 --> 00:46:59,190
what they expected. 
They like feed Godzilla some 

861
00:46:59,190 --> 00:47:00,990
roses just to see if it'll eat 
them. 

862
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,160
And then they're like, well, I 
guess this is just like when 

863
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,360
birds entrust their eggs to 
other birds and dinosaurs are 

864
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,400
just birds. 
So that's what happened here. 

865
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:13,720
We think that's normal now. 
Why I'm pretty sure this is not 

866
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:20,480
actually like Godzilla's kid is 
because Godzilla biscuits. 

867
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,200
Premute, I mean, you know, 
eventually will be adopted, 

868
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,520
right? 
But like Godzilla premutation 

869
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,880
was in the bikini. 
It's all as a dinosaur, right? 

870
00:47:30,380 --> 00:47:31,940
And this is in the Bering 
Strait. 

871
00:47:32,140 --> 00:47:37,220
And they make it pretty clear 
that both Rodin and this new 

872
00:47:37,220 --> 00:47:44,660
baby Godzilla were mutated in 
the egg by the like, latent 

873
00:47:44,660 --> 00:47:46,980
radiation of the island over 
time. 

874
00:47:47,380 --> 00:47:51,500
So they've kind of accidentally 
created a second unrelated, or 

875
00:47:51,580 --> 00:47:55,100
really a third unrelated 
Godzilla just because there was 

876
00:47:55,100 --> 00:47:58,660
another egg that laid dormant 
for God knows how long they got 

877
00:47:58,660 --> 00:48:01,740
nuked. 
Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. 

878
00:48:02,660 --> 00:48:07,420
Anyway, so yeah, so now they 
have this baby Godzilla. 

879
00:48:08,100 --> 00:48:10,900
And as one might expect, 
Godzilla would like the baby 

880
00:48:10,900 --> 00:48:12,660
Godzilla. 
So Godzilla's on the way now. 

881
00:48:14,260 --> 00:48:16,820
So they mobilized the G force, 
including the new Mecca, 

882
00:48:16,820 --> 00:48:22,380
Godzilla, right? 
Yeah, but dinosaur boy isn't 

883
00:48:22,380 --> 00:48:24,300
around. 
Here's a. 

884
00:48:24,300 --> 00:48:28,420
Question that might be that that
does good like because. 

885
00:48:29,470 --> 00:48:32,590
In The King of the Monsters, 
like Godzilla like, has human 

886
00:48:32,590 --> 00:48:33,230
friends. 
Weird. 

887
00:48:33,830 --> 00:48:37,710
So do you have human friends? 
In the older movies, I just made

888
00:48:37,710 --> 00:48:40,270
some dudes. 
Not meaningfully, no. 

889
00:48:41,230 --> 00:48:43,350
So that's that's is that a 
Hollywood era invention? 

890
00:48:43,350 --> 00:48:45,230
Kind of. 
Well, So what it is, is like 

891
00:48:45,230 --> 00:48:51,150
there's a brief period in the 
the like like 70s right, Pretty 

892
00:48:51,150 --> 00:48:54,190
much where Godzilla kind of 
starts getting reinvented as 

893
00:48:54,190 --> 00:48:56,390
like a friend to children type 
character. 

894
00:48:56,890 --> 00:48:58,690
I'm scared because. 
I when I looked up this, this 

895
00:48:58,690 --> 00:49:02,330
was like alongside this was a 
kids TV show and he was afraid. 

896
00:49:02,330 --> 00:49:03,810
He was all about being afraid of
children. 

897
00:49:03,810 --> 00:49:08,010
Slowly becomes through the 
original movies like less and 

898
00:49:08,010 --> 00:49:12,130
less of the antihero like 
neutral force of nature type 

899
00:49:12,130 --> 00:49:15,530
character he was envisioned as 
and becomes more of just a 

900
00:49:15,530 --> 00:49:17,450
straight up like big lizard 
superhero. 

901
00:49:17,970 --> 00:49:21,370
So a lot of that is still 
culturally front and center in a

902
00:49:21,370 --> 00:49:24,290
lot of Americans minds. 
Plus the Hanna Barbera cartoon 

903
00:49:24,290 --> 00:49:26,530
right that you're you're 
probably referencing. 

904
00:49:27,810 --> 00:49:32,730
But no, Godzilla by and large is
not a heroic figure. 

905
00:49:32,930 --> 00:49:36,570
Godzilla is closer to being like
a natural disaster. 

906
00:49:38,010 --> 00:49:41,410
Godzilla might fight and kill a 
thing that's a bigger problem 

907
00:49:41,410 --> 00:49:43,690
than it, but it's not because 
it's defending humanity. 

908
00:49:43,690 --> 00:49:48,230
It's just because Godzilla's the
biggest motherfucker around and 

909
00:49:48,230 --> 00:49:51,950
don't, don't come to his yard, 
you know? 

910
00:49:53,030 --> 00:49:57,990
Because, as Charlotte said, they
jump immediately to Mecca 

911
00:49:57,990 --> 00:49:59,070
Godzilla. 
They're like, off. 

912
00:49:59,110 --> 00:50:01,830
They're like, Oh no, we're going
to get Mecca, Godzilla, yeah. 

913
00:50:03,670 --> 00:50:05,430
Now. 
First of all, as I as I think I 

914
00:50:05,430 --> 00:50:09,310
mentioned earlier, Mecca 
Godzilla comes out of the thing 

915
00:50:09,310 --> 00:50:11,030
and does basically like switches
on. 

916
00:50:11,270 --> 00:50:13,750
And I switch over to another tab
and I Google when did the 

917
00:50:13,750 --> 00:50:17,100
Megazord come out? 
I think it's heavily inspired by

918
00:50:17,100 --> 00:50:19,700
and because here's the Yeah. 
It's got to be inspired by it 

919
00:50:19,700 --> 00:50:22,140
because this, this. 
We'll get that later. 

920
00:50:22,140 --> 00:50:24,500
There's too many similarities. 
Well, the the whole like 

921
00:50:24,500 --> 00:50:27,580
tokisatsu genre, right, Which 
includes stuff like Super Sentai

922
00:50:27,580 --> 00:50:32,300
and Common Writer and Ultraman 
and Godzilla, like so much of it

923
00:50:32,300 --> 00:50:35,780
comes from. 
So the creator of Ultraman is 

924
00:50:36,140 --> 00:50:39,780
also one of the the the key 
figures behind the creation of 

925
00:50:39,780 --> 00:50:44,330
Godzilla. 
It's a G Superaya so like 

926
00:50:44,330 --> 00:50:48,610
because super Senti owes so much
to like Ultraman. 

927
00:50:49,010 --> 00:50:53,970
In a funny way this is just 
super ayas like stylings and 

928
00:50:54,010 --> 00:50:57,010
coming full circle. 
In a lot of ways I. 

929
00:50:57,010 --> 00:50:59,850
Just love that they immediately 
go Mecca Goodzilla. 

930
00:51:00,010 --> 00:51:02,890
They don't have a Plan B. 
No, this is just if this if this

931
00:51:02,930 --> 00:51:06,370
really big bionicle doesn't work
we've done for. 

932
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:07,640
Wait. 
Don't. 

933
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:09,720
They've tried. 
Everything else so far, they got

934
00:51:09,720 --> 00:51:12,720
so many movies of trying tanks 
and jets and they're just like, 

935
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,600
don't even try this. 
Didn't you say the next movie is

936
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,080
about space Godzilla? 
Well, yeah, that's a whole 

937
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:21,320
different problem. 
Well, the next movie is just a 

938
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,560
Dragon Ball Z plot where they 
scratched out some names and 

939
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,400
wrote Godzilla in it, I mean. 
Let's, let's, let's be fair 

940
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,920
here. 
This is this is like a low level

941
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:34,190
Dragon Ball plot. 
Yeah, I mean, we're increasingly

942
00:51:34,190 --> 00:51:37,190
just becoming live action Dragon
Ball with lizards. 

943
00:51:39,790 --> 00:51:41,150
Chuckable hot. 
Lizards. 

944
00:51:41,150 --> 00:51:44,870
Bigger lizards. 
Wow. 

945
00:51:45,590 --> 00:51:49,830
So Dinosaur boy's not around to 
to pilot like he's supposed to 

946
00:51:49,830 --> 00:51:54,030
be because the Mega Godzilla as 
it exists is supposed to have 

947
00:51:54,030 --> 00:51:56,630
like 3 primary pilots and he was
supposed to be the 4th 1:00. 

948
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,760
Yeah, that's that's another. 
Thing for pilots, Yeah, he's 

949
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,960
just a backup dude. 
He sits, he sits in the back in 

950
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:04,600
case I guess somebody needs a 
bathroom break. 

951
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:06,320
That's. 
Another That's another cent, I 

952
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:11,360
think for pilots and the shots, 
the shots about now that are the

953
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:16,000
insides of a Megazon, it's very 
less clear, the slightly less 

954
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,520
colorful, but that is, that is 
the Megazon, I think. 

955
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,280
It's I think it's clearly a lot 
of reference a lot of 

956
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:25,040
inspiration from Super Centi, 
but yeah, trying to make it a 

957
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,990
little bit more like, you know, 
again this is a government force

958
00:52:28,990 --> 00:52:32,310
and everything is Gray and 
future metallic and you know 

959
00:52:32,510 --> 00:52:35,110
military uniforms and shit 
because. 

960
00:52:35,110 --> 00:52:36,870
I don't jump ahead well in the 
plot. 

961
00:52:37,350 --> 00:52:39,510
I've never good so long until 
collided just about to. 

962
00:52:40,390 --> 00:52:45,390
Yeah, Okay. 
So they have to launch anyway 

963
00:52:45,390 --> 00:52:48,710
without him. 
And then so there's this 

964
00:52:48,710 --> 00:52:51,780
character. 
Like this this English speaking 

965
00:52:51,780 --> 00:52:55,260
guy and his name is just Doctor 
as I love this guy right? 

966
00:52:55,260 --> 00:52:57,780
My my favorite. 
Element of this, of this when I 

967
00:52:57,860 --> 00:53:00,220
was, when I checked the 
Wikipedia page and all of the 

968
00:53:00,220 --> 00:53:04,460
English speaking guys didn't 
have Wikipedia pages who lived 

969
00:53:04,460 --> 00:53:07,500
in Japan that they found in a a 
nearby restaurant and were like 

970
00:53:07,500 --> 00:53:08,900
can you come with us for a 
couple days? 

971
00:53:09,980 --> 00:53:14,380
Yeah, but. 
Doctor Asimov is like the time 

972
00:53:14,380 --> 00:53:17,540
has come to put our technology 
to the final Test and I just 

973
00:53:17,540 --> 00:53:19,140
thought that was a funny reading
of it. 

974
00:53:21,010 --> 00:53:24,850
So they launch and the first 
thing it does is they go 

975
00:53:24,850 --> 00:53:28,010
launching Mega Buster and it 
like shoots like a rainbow 

976
00:53:28,010 --> 00:53:31,210
atomic breath at Godzilla. 
But I wanted. 

977
00:53:31,210 --> 00:53:33,850
Sally and. 
I was. 

978
00:53:33,850 --> 00:53:35,490
Waiting for I again, Mega 
Godzilla. 

979
00:53:35,490 --> 00:53:37,090
I have to assume it's a tuna 
soup. 

980
00:53:38,090 --> 00:53:41,770
There was. 
You're thinking it's not. 

981
00:53:41,770 --> 00:53:46,050
It's clearly not CGI. 
Yeah, well, but so much it's 

982
00:53:46,050 --> 00:53:48,810
confusing, right? 
Because so much of it is, 

983
00:53:49,570 --> 00:53:53,650
especially in the first big 
fight, is it mostly just hovers 

984
00:53:53,650 --> 00:53:56,450
around and does stuff, so it's 
very stiff. 

985
00:53:56,650 --> 00:53:59,730
But later we will see it walking
around, so it's. 

986
00:54:00,690 --> 00:54:01,530
It looks. 
Robot. 

987
00:54:01,530 --> 00:54:03,370
It's so robotic. 
It looks like a robot. 

988
00:54:03,370 --> 00:54:07,330
There's something about this 
that makes it look like a real 

989
00:54:07,330 --> 00:54:09,370
fight happening. 
I think it's a sense of scale, 

990
00:54:10,090 --> 00:54:11,690
like he walks past a Ferris 
wheel. 

991
00:54:11,690 --> 00:54:13,370
And I honestly was like, I 
really wanted to use it like a 

992
00:54:13,370 --> 00:54:15,810
Beyblade. 
Well, somebody does smack 

993
00:54:15,810 --> 00:54:17,610
Godzilla with a with a Ferris 
wheel. 

994
00:54:17,610 --> 00:54:20,590
Last movie, so I want to go 
back. 

995
00:54:20,630 --> 00:54:25,310
Now watching this movies made me
go watch these, watch these, hey

996
00:54:25,310 --> 00:54:31,830
say movies for real. 
Godzilla is, I think, in some of

997
00:54:31,830 --> 00:54:35,950
these sequences it's an empty 
suit, like being hovered around 

998
00:54:35,950 --> 00:54:38,990
by a crane, where it's like 
levitating around and just 

999
00:54:38,990 --> 00:54:27,510
shooting beams. 
You'll you'll dig the whole 

1000
00:54:27,510 --> 00:54:29,150
series. 
But yeah. 

1001
00:54:40,350 --> 00:54:42,950
Could it be animatronics? 
But with with some animatronics 

1002
00:54:42,950 --> 00:54:45,150
for like the mouth and and and 
movements and stuff. 

1003
00:54:45,150 --> 00:54:48,360
But like, yeah, there's later 
scenes where it's walking around

1004
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,560
and it's definitely a dude in 
the suit. 

1005
00:54:50,720 --> 00:54:52,200
Yeah, because it's this. 
Little seats where you can 

1006
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:54,840
definitely tell that's not what 
you have to do in the suit, 

1007
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:55,840
actually. 
We've also got to. 

1008
00:54:55,840 --> 00:55:01,120
Think this is 93, this is post 
my touchdown five choice and 

1009
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,400
stuff Star Wars. 
So they've clearly they've got, 

1010
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:06,840
they've got the text for it and 
the actual suit acting is 

1011
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:10,470
incredible. 
I mean on Mecca Godzilla like 

1012
00:55:10,710 --> 00:55:14,030
the way that once Mecca Godzilla
actually is on the ground and 

1013
00:55:14,030 --> 00:55:18,630
moving the way it like turns is 
this very good, very robotic 

1014
00:55:18,870 --> 00:55:21,870
like it it it seems like 
something moving with a lot of 

1015
00:55:21,870 --> 00:55:26,510
hydraulics and a lot of like 
motors and servos it's it's this

1016
00:55:26,510 --> 00:55:30,030
is very good, it's very good. 
It doesn't move in an overly 

1017
00:55:30,030 --> 00:55:33,110
fakey way, and it does not move 
in the way that a biological 

1018
00:55:33,110 --> 00:55:37,880
creature. 
A lot cooler. 

1019
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:39,720
Than the other ones, than the 
other mega Godzilla. 

1020
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,840
So honestly to me. 
But so yeah, they trade laser 

1021
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,040
attacks. 
Godzilla's breath doesn't do 

1022
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:49,480
anything because of the diamond 
coating, so they instead fire 

1023
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,920
the plasma grenade, which 
manages to knock Godzilla over. 

1024
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,320
And with Godzilla on the ground,
they're like, all right, time to

1025
00:55:56,560 --> 00:56:00,960
launch the paralyzed missiles. 
And Godzilla does the thing that

1026
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,440
it that it loves to do, where it
kind of waits for a second and 

1027
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:04,720
tries to do like a gotcha 
moment. 

1028
00:56:04,720 --> 00:56:06,640
It's done this several times in 
the 90s. 

1029
00:56:07,490 --> 00:56:09,690
So waits for a moment and then 
it's like gotcha. 

1030
00:56:09,690 --> 00:56:11,330
And then fires its atomic 
breath. 

1031
00:56:11,330 --> 00:56:15,610
But it doesn't do anything again
because of the coating and Mecca

1032
00:56:15,610 --> 00:56:20,370
Godzilla fires these like huge 
Tasers at Godzilla like into its

1033
00:56:20,370 --> 00:56:27,050
flesh, but the energy from 
inside Godzilla like surges back

1034
00:56:27,050 --> 00:56:29,050
into Mecca Godzilla and starts 
frying it. 

1035
00:56:29,050 --> 00:56:30,810
I think he's doing like the 
nuclear pulse. 

1036
00:56:30,810 --> 00:56:33,370
It's just that because it's got 
the cables tethered, it's like, 

1037
00:56:33,890 --> 00:56:35,690
let me just send this shit right
up at you. 

1038
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:40,520
Godzilla's constantly finding me
weird shit he can do with the 

1039
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:44,200
nuclear battery inside of him. 
Yeah, I mean. 

1040
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,000
I imagine it's just energy tries
to find the path police. 

1041
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:51,640
Yeah, exactly. 
So yeah, this this is like. 

1042
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:54,240
This is. 
I mean this where they are 

1043
00:56:54,240 --> 00:56:58,720
throwing everything they've got.
This, like this, is a level of 

1044
00:56:58,720 --> 00:57:01,440
aggression that I think even 
cops in America would think is a

1045
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:05,160
bit more. 
Like they fire. 

1046
00:57:05,860 --> 00:57:09,140
They've got Rasozilla missiles, 
multiple jets. 

1047
00:57:10,220 --> 00:57:11,900
It's. 
Like and. 

1048
00:57:11,900 --> 00:57:13,780
It ain't doing shit, is the 
thing. 

1049
00:57:13,780 --> 00:57:16,420
Yeah, if that. 
Just if that's not going to 

1050
00:57:16,420 --> 00:57:21,060
work, I just yeah, they don't. 
Have the Oxygen Destroyer, so I 

1051
00:57:21,180 --> 00:57:21,980
I. 
I just. 

1052
00:57:22,980 --> 00:57:24,260
People as. 
We've discussed it. 

1053
00:57:24,260 --> 00:57:25,540
We don't even know if he needs 
to breathe. 

1054
00:57:26,540 --> 00:57:28,980
Yeah, fair. 
How did you kill? 

1055
00:57:28,980 --> 00:57:31,740
This guy. 
Thankfully, they answered that 

1056
00:57:31,740 --> 00:57:35,220
question for us soon. 
Maybe, sort of, they do. 

1057
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:39,160
Sort. 
Of so the engine room is on fire

1058
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:42,080
and Godzilla's eyes are like, 
glowing red and he gets up, just

1059
00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:46,400
shoves Mecca Godzilla over 
because they can't do anything, 

1060
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:48,760
because it's on fire. 
And the entire control room is 

1061
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:53,160
like, ah, we're screwed. 
And they're like, OK, well, we 

1062
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:55,560
need to to do something. 
We need to make it stand up and 

1063
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:57,520
fight. 
And Doctor Azimov is like, we I 

1064
00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,040
don't even know if that thing's 
coming home. 

1065
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,760
Like, I I don't know if we can 
even get this thing home now. 

1066
00:58:02,550 --> 00:58:06,030
So Godzilla just keeps walking, 
walks its way inland. 

1067
00:58:06,830 --> 00:58:09,750
They they throw what little they
have at it at this point because

1068
00:58:09,750 --> 00:58:13,590
they've invested everything in 
the Mecca Godzilla, and Godzilla

1069
00:58:13,590 --> 00:58:15,190
just blows right past 
everything. 

1070
00:58:16,670 --> 00:58:20,790
Everyone evacuates the area and 
they huddle underground with the

1071
00:58:20,790 --> 00:58:22,510
baby Godzilla. 
Yeah. 

1072
00:58:22,870 --> 00:58:25,430
In a Cyborg research area. 
But. 

1073
00:58:26,310 --> 00:58:29,830
I keep I keep hopping on about 
this, but I was so expecting 

1074
00:58:29,830 --> 00:58:34,110
this era schlocky and thick. 
And it looks so. 

1075
00:58:35,510 --> 00:58:38,750
That has been one of the biggest
things about doing Castle Bravo 

1076
00:58:38,750 --> 00:58:42,070
is like we wanted to go in with 
no expectations of what these 

1077
00:58:42,070 --> 00:58:43,790
movies were. 
Watch them in their original, 

1078
00:58:43,790 --> 00:58:47,230
Not with the hokey dubs, right 
with the original performances, 

1079
00:58:47,230 --> 00:58:49,830
the original widescreen, like 
theatrical releases, all of this

1080
00:58:49,830 --> 00:58:52,670
shit and what we have come to 
learn is like. 

1081
00:58:52,950 --> 00:58:59,320
There is so much love and effort
poured into the practical 

1082
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:02,000
effects of these. 
These are works of art from a 

1083
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:04,400
production standpoint, this 
movie. 

1084
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:12,160
Is particularly plummet wise. 
Has some issues, but like every 

1085
00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:16,920
single time Godzilla is on 
screen doing something, you are 

1086
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:18,240
like, that's a giant lizard, 
man. 

1087
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,960
Yeah, I'm fully bought in. 
That's like clearly. 

1088
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:23,520
Over the years, they've 
perfected. 

1089
00:59:24,090 --> 00:59:28,610
They craft to a just to take to 
a point where Hollywood wasn't 

1090
00:59:28,610 --> 00:59:30,370
up then I honestly still isn't 
now. 

1091
00:59:30,610 --> 00:59:34,570
This looks more real me and 
better to me than anything. 

1092
00:59:35,650 --> 00:59:37,210
Oh, yeah. 
Oh yeah, I mean, there's there's

1093
00:59:37,210 --> 00:59:41,690
a magic here that's not here in 
the era of CGI for sure, so. 

1094
00:59:42,010 --> 00:59:46,170
Godzilla's like falling across 
like, yeah, they wants. 

1095
00:59:46,170 --> 00:59:50,130
To find the baby, they let they.
OK, if you're in this. 

1096
00:59:50,610 --> 00:59:53,050
I know it's a it's a difficult 
thing to imagine, but please do.

1097
00:59:54,150 --> 00:59:56,270
What would you be like? 
Fuck it. 

1098
00:59:56,470 --> 00:59:58,350
Here's the baby. 
Oh, that's fine. 

1099
00:59:58,350 --> 01:00:01,750
Wipe Kyoto Kyoto off the map 
because it's gone. 

1100
01:00:02,110 --> 01:00:05,550
By end of this it's gone. 
Yeah, I mean at a certain point.

1101
01:00:05,550 --> 01:00:07,310
Well, but here's the problem if 
you're. 

1102
01:00:07,780 --> 01:00:10,940
I can understand where, if 
you're from a standpoint of 

1103
01:00:11,180 --> 01:00:14,260
Godzilla is one of those 
destructive things we regularly 

1104
01:00:14,260 --> 01:00:17,500
face in our lives. 
The idea of like, let's give him

1105
01:00:17,500 --> 01:00:21,260
a baby that he can raise to be 
another one of him is probably 

1106
01:00:21,380 --> 01:00:23,900
the single scariest thing you 
can say. 

1107
01:00:23,940 --> 01:00:26,580
But also it's. 
Very clear to me, judging by how

1108
01:00:26,580 --> 01:00:30,180
many movies there is, that 
Japan's got put a really good 

1109
01:00:30,180 --> 01:00:32,300
infrastructure like in place, 
like they could just they could 

1110
01:00:32,300 --> 01:00:35,160
just rebuilt in a dime. 
Well, you know, like. 

1111
01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,880
I I have to assume when I 
remember they do eventually buy.

1112
01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:41,680
Africa, so it's probably. 
Better than spending this money?

1113
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:43,800
Rebuilding Tokyo than yeah, you 
have to. 

1114
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,760
Collect me if I'm wrong, but I 
assume because the list 

1115
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:49,480
destroyed multiple cities in 
previous movies for sure, yeah? 

1116
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:52,760
Yeah, and I. 
Have to assume, as you haven't 

1117
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,360
destroyed Kyoto Kyoto before, 
not in this. 

1118
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,320
Timeline I don't think because 
like. 

1119
01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,920
I have to assume they've got 
really good at building these 

1120
01:00:59,920 --> 01:01:01,120
cities. 
Oh, they've got. 

1121
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:03,440
They've got, they've got like 
entire. 

1122
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,280
Fucking industries that are just
like Godzilla Recovery, 

1123
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:10,920
interestingly. 
Unless I missed it, They never 

1124
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:11,880
go. 
Oh, there's this many 

1125
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,520
casualties. 
I don't think it's like killed 

1126
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,000
anybody in. 
Earlier movies they would 

1127
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,560
sometimes focus on like the 
human damage, but I think by 

1128
01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:22,880
this point, like in this series 
specifically, they've kind of 

1129
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:24,760
moved past it, right? 
Because it's. 

1130
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:26,440
I think they feel like they're 
retreading. 

1131
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:29,600
Yeah, What was any of the? 
Soul like that, Japan's got so 

1132
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:32,160
good at it. 
Because he will casually. 

1133
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:33,760
So there's one, casually, and 
that's the guy who thought he 

1134
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:34,880
could get an autograph from 
Gozilla. 

1135
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:37,120
They just. 
Put everyone in the Ava 

1136
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:39,560
shelters, you know what I mean? 
I love this idea. 

1137
01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:44,120
Yeah, just go in the shelters. 
Just go in the shelter. 

1138
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:48,400
And within about two days, 
they'll probably just like, fly 

1139
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,360
us over an entire new city and 
drop it down. 

1140
01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,320
Just. 
Sweep the old one away and put 

1141
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,640
put buildings down, just 
airlifted in. 

1142
01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:56,520
Yeah. 
Well, that's just. 

1143
01:01:56,920 --> 01:01:59,320
I mean right? 
That's just. 3. 

1144
01:02:04,590 --> 01:02:08,910
So Godzilla can't reach the baby
because the baby's underground 

1145
01:02:09,030 --> 01:02:11,510
and Godzilla leaves very 
defeated and sad. 

1146
01:02:11,510 --> 01:02:14,910
Like very clearly kind of sad 
about this doesn't even destroy 

1147
01:02:14,910 --> 01:02:16,550
a building on its way out. 
Like there's. 

1148
01:02:16,550 --> 01:02:18,070
A building right in front of it.
It's just. 

1149
01:02:18,070 --> 01:02:24,870
Like I don't even feel like it. 
So the G force moves baby 

1150
01:02:24,870 --> 01:02:27,430
Godzilla into an enclosure to to
research it. 

1151
01:02:27,430 --> 01:02:32,150
Basically Cosima's like. 
Going through the motions in the

1152
01:02:32,150 --> 01:02:35,710
Goruda because it's I think 
that's also one of his hyper 

1153
01:02:35,710 --> 01:02:39,150
fixations is that jet, but it's 
clearly it's. 

1154
01:02:39,150 --> 01:02:41,350
Clearly a fixation to do about 
what he does in about 5 minutes,

1155
01:02:41,950 --> 01:02:45,910
yeah. 
So the officials are looking 

1156
01:02:45,910 --> 01:02:49,390
over the plan to destroy 
Godzilla's second brain, which 

1157
01:02:49,390 --> 01:02:53,590
is a thing dinosaurs do have. 
It's like Godzilla's second 

1158
01:02:53,590 --> 01:02:55,790
spinal brain that was 
discovered. 

1159
01:02:56,230 --> 01:02:58,430
It seems like it was discovered 
because they were researching 

1160
01:02:58,430 --> 01:02:59,990
baby Godzilla. 
They were like, oh, it's got a 

1161
01:02:59,990 --> 01:03:02,190
second brain. 
So this Godzilla probably does 

1162
01:03:02,190 --> 01:03:04,510
too, Charlotte. 
Why? 

1163
01:03:04,630 --> 01:03:07,070
Why was this boy? 
Where was what? 

1164
01:03:07,990 --> 01:03:09,870
I mean it looks. 
Like it's in his ass because 

1165
01:03:09,870 --> 01:03:12,430
it's so low down the spine, but 
like. 

1166
01:03:12,670 --> 01:03:14,990
Yeah. 
It's hard. 

1167
01:03:14,990 --> 01:03:17,950
Because Godzilla is also like, 
let's be clear, whenever you're 

1168
01:03:17,950 --> 01:03:21,710
zoomed in that close on Godzilla
is a very thick boy. 

1169
01:03:22,110 --> 01:03:25,630
So, like, it's hard sometimes to
tell exactly where you're 

1170
01:03:25,630 --> 01:03:29,220
looking at. 
So Dr. Azimov is in his car and 

1171
01:03:29,220 --> 01:03:33,420
he's like trying to leave Cosma 
because he's in charge of the 

1172
01:03:33,420 --> 01:03:35,380
the parking lot. 
Now there's this. 

1173
01:03:35,940 --> 01:03:38,860
I had never seen one of these in
real life, where you drive your 

1174
01:03:38,860 --> 01:03:42,140
car until like a rotating thing.
I I. 

1175
01:03:42,180 --> 01:03:44,060
Wanted to ask a few. 
This is a thing over there 

1176
01:03:44,260 --> 01:03:46,020
because I've never seen this. 
Ever seen one? 

1177
01:03:46,940 --> 01:03:50,620
No, this this doesn't feel. 
And he holds this man hostage 

1178
01:03:51,620 --> 01:03:54,540
until he gets. 
Jump back like this feels like 

1179
01:03:54,620 --> 01:03:56,540
this feels like a violation of a
Geneva Convention. 

1180
01:03:58,980 --> 01:04:02,020
Putting a man on. 
A slowly rotating turntable. 

1181
01:04:02,060 --> 01:04:05,020
Surely this? 
Surely this falls under torture.

1182
01:04:05,300 --> 01:04:07,500
You're making a man dizzy for no
reason. 

1183
01:04:09,660 --> 01:04:13,500
But yeah, no he he traps Dr. 
Azimar in Azimov in his car. 

1184
01:04:13,660 --> 01:04:16,580
And I had. 
A plan? 

1185
01:04:16,580 --> 01:04:18,700
I know how to fight Godzilla. 
He doesn't. 

1186
01:04:18,980 --> 01:04:21,580
Because it's after, it will take
really slowly. 

1187
01:04:21,740 --> 01:04:24,380
He could just get out, yeah, but
he's. 

1188
01:04:24,380 --> 01:04:28,470
Old and he don't want. 
Have you ever? 

1189
01:04:28,470 --> 01:04:33,030
Met a boomer I. 
Yeah, Fairpoint. 

1190
01:04:33,350 --> 01:04:36,790
Fairpoint. 
But he's like, yeah, I know how 

1191
01:04:36,790 --> 01:04:40,310
to fight Godzilla. 
We need to modify Garuda to 

1192
01:04:40,310 --> 01:04:43,430
combine with Mecca Godzilla to 
give it more power to use its 

1193
01:04:43,470 --> 01:04:44,710
new weapons. 
Listen. 

1194
01:04:45,030 --> 01:04:47,710
I've just seen this new show, 
Paul Super Sentai. 

1195
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,720
So then we got back to baby 
Godzilla and it's enclosure and 

1196
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:58,080
they didn't give baby Godzilla 
enough enrichment and it's 

1197
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:00,280
enclosure, so it's stealing 
shoes. 

1198
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:06,040
Cosima shows up and it's like, 
hey, hi Miss Gojo. 

1199
01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:07,760
I see you're taking care of this
baby. 

1200
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:11,800
Would you like to to fly around 
on my giant Tyrannodon flying 

1201
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:15,400
machine that I have built to it?
Sounds like to impress you. 

1202
01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:19,800
I said that this month. 
Clearly can do anything as long 

1203
01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:22,160
as he thinks of the lens of a 
dinosaur. 

1204
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:27,360
Case in point, he has invented a
tiny flying machine that defies 

1205
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:29,160
the laws of our dynamics. 
No technology. 

1206
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:31,880
Like this before now in these 
movies. 

1207
01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:34,760
Yeah, if this guy just. 
Thought about oh, how would I? 

1208
01:05:34,760 --> 01:05:37,560
How would I make it so that a 
terror would never starve? 

1209
01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:39,000
He'd solve, well, hunger 
immediately. 

1210
01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:41,880
We just got to. 
Convince him that it's it's got 

1211
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:43,160
something to do with 
Tyrannodons. 

1212
01:05:43,990 --> 01:05:45,270
Yeah, I I. 
I I. 

1213
01:05:45,270 --> 01:05:47,230
Also, I really want to pay me 
Godzilla. 

1214
01:05:47,230 --> 01:05:48,510
That's the cutest thing I've 
ever seen. 

1215
01:05:49,630 --> 01:05:51,310
It's a lot better than the last 
thing, that's, yeah. 

1216
01:05:51,750 --> 01:05:53,430
OK, when was the last time you 
Gozilla? 

1217
01:05:53,550 --> 01:05:55,150
I've not seen this. 
Send a photo. 

1218
01:05:55,150 --> 01:06:00,870
To you in the discord, and this 
is what the Baby Godzilla looked

1219
01:06:00,870 --> 01:06:06,830
like in like the 60s. 
OK, that when? 

1220
01:06:07,430 --> 01:06:10,260
That when Godzilla was last. 
I had a baby, yes. 

1221
01:06:10,260 --> 01:06:12,060
Yes, was actually. 
Godzilla's kid? 

1222
01:06:12,220 --> 01:06:14,980
No, it was. 
Also one that they just found. 

1223
01:06:16,940 --> 01:06:19,340
All right there. 
Oh my God. 

1224
01:06:20,620 --> 01:06:24,060
It's like the Pillsbury. 
Dome Point did so much cocaine. 

1225
01:06:25,940 --> 01:06:27,500
I have a feeling. 
If that thing turns around, it's

1226
01:06:27,500 --> 01:06:30,340
going to weak fast like. 
But anyway. 

1227
01:06:30,340 --> 01:06:33,660
It's it's it. 
That's that's what this fucking 

1228
01:06:33,660 --> 01:06:36,140
thing looked like back in the 
60s. 

1229
01:06:36,700 --> 01:06:40,120
That's my sleep paralysis demon.
But yeah, new baby Godzilla 

1230
01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,560
looks a billion times better. 
Yeah, he's. 

1231
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,880
So confused and it's so he 
reminds me of like a lost little

1232
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:49,080
puppy and I love him so much. 
So the. 

1233
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:53,560
Flying machine crashes, so the 
psychic children show up because

1234
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:56,800
they're like, I want to see baby
Godzilla and then sing to it. 

1235
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,040
Is this the 1st time? 
The psychic children ever show 

1236
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:02,120
up. 
No, no, they've been in other 

1237
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:04,150
ones. 
So they do they. 

1238
01:07:04,190 --> 01:07:06,950
Do anything well, but in other 
ones because they usually 

1239
01:07:06,950 --> 01:07:09,030
they've got, they've got pond, 
pond usually they draw. 

1240
01:07:09,030 --> 01:07:12,310
Pictures of Godzilla all 
together, independently. 

1241
01:07:12,510 --> 01:07:14,950
And then that's how people know,
like, oh, Godzilla is coming 

1242
01:07:14,950 --> 01:07:17,310
back because all the all the 
little kids are drawing pictures

1243
01:07:17,310 --> 01:07:23,070
of Godzilla again. 
So the as if like responding to 

1244
01:07:23,070 --> 01:07:28,510
this song, Rodan reawakens and 
its bodies covered in like this 

1245
01:07:28,510 --> 01:07:30,550
red aura, like it lights on 
fire. 

1246
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:32,600
And I bet it has a really 
interesting name. 

1247
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:34,760
And that's not fire Rodan. 
There's a way? 

1248
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:41,040
Cooler name than that. 
But Rodan wakes up and flies 

1249
01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:46,680
towards Japan. 
And so the military goes about 

1250
01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:49,040
discussing, like, what they're 
going to do about the Second 

1251
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:51,360
Brain, and they're going to use 
Mickey. 

1252
01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:53,920
They're going to hook her up to 
something called the G Crusher, 

1253
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:56,760
and she's going to use her 
psychic powers to find the 

1254
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,640
Second Brain. 
And they're going to kill 

1255
01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:00,480
Godzilla that way, I was 
wondering. 

1256
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:02,880
Because it had been ages since 
I've seen this movie. 

1257
01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:05,360
I was like, what the fuck kind 
of weapon is the G Crusher Going

1258
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:08,560
to be super anticlimactic. 
It's just the shock anchors 

1259
01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:10,320
again. 
It's the thing they already 

1260
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:13,040
have, but they but now they know
where to aim. 

1261
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:14,680
The thing to blow up his his 
butt. 

1262
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,680
It's the Goodzilla. 
Cousha and the G Spot Cousha, if

1263
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:22,000
you think about it. 
Unfucking likely, but they do 

1264
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:24,720
blow his ass up with it, so they
do do that. 

1265
01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:28,029
So miss. 
This is where Miss Gojo goes to 

1266
01:08:28,029 --> 01:08:30,870
like the commander and is like, 
can we not, can we not kill 

1267
01:08:30,870 --> 01:08:32,630
Godzilla? 
Because like, Godzilla has a 

1268
01:08:32,630 --> 01:08:34,470
baby? 
And I don't think it'd be good 

1269
01:08:34,470 --> 01:08:36,390
for baby Godzilla if Godzilla 
died. 

1270
01:08:37,310 --> 01:08:38,830
But the military is like, no, we
have to do this. 

1271
01:08:38,830 --> 01:08:40,750
Did you see what? 
He just pointed the key or 

1272
01:08:40,910 --> 01:08:44,270
anything like, yeah, so. 
This is because just after this,

1273
01:08:44,390 --> 01:08:46,790
as you've said, the gods of the 
roof and they have this, this 

1274
01:08:46,870 --> 01:08:49,870
same conversation and it's what 
if Goodzilla's the good guy and 

1275
01:08:49,950 --> 01:08:54,109
I get it, I get that that the 
literally the the like. 

1276
01:08:54,649 --> 01:08:57,770
The whole theorem of multiple 
Godzilla movies is actually 

1277
01:08:57,770 --> 01:08:59,930
Godzilla's. 
There's a lot worse things than 

1278
01:08:59,930 --> 01:09:01,810
Godzilla. 
Zilla's just walked through 

1279
01:09:01,810 --> 01:09:05,649
Kyoto and destroyed it. 
No normal person ever going to 

1280
01:09:05,649 --> 01:09:08,770
be like, maybe, maybe he's a 
good guy. 

1281
01:09:08,770 --> 01:09:11,410
That's just not going to happen,
yeah. 

1282
01:09:11,569 --> 01:09:15,010
Again, walking natural disaster 
every time. 

1283
01:09:15,010 --> 01:09:17,050
He's every time he's he makes 
landfall. 

1284
01:09:17,050 --> 01:09:20,330
It's like a volcano erupting or 
a hurricane touching down, you 

1285
01:09:20,330 --> 01:09:23,899
know, maybe This is why. 
Japan doesn't really do natural 

1286
01:09:23,899 --> 01:09:25,340
disaster movies because they did
them. 

1287
01:09:25,660 --> 01:09:28,500
Yeah, they they just. 
Experienced, like, constant fear

1288
01:09:28,500 --> 01:09:32,620
over what one bad earthquake or 
tsunami could do to like 

1289
01:09:32,620 --> 01:09:35,260
countless people. 
So yeah. 

1290
01:09:36,660 --> 01:09:40,580
So Miki now is also like, I 
don't you know, I used to think 

1291
01:09:40,580 --> 01:09:42,540
that killing Godzilla was the 
right thing to do, but now I'm 

1292
01:09:42,540 --> 01:09:45,700
not sure. 
So, like, she and Miss Gojo are 

1293
01:09:45,700 --> 01:09:49,060
on the same page about this and 
this is when they're on the roof

1294
01:09:49,060 --> 01:09:51,550
and they're like, well. 
Maybe the dinosaurs time will 

1295
01:09:51,550 --> 01:09:53,470
come again. 
You know, maybe we shouldn't be 

1296
01:09:54,149 --> 01:09:57,990
killing Godzilla right now. 
Maybe. 

1297
01:09:58,070 --> 01:09:58,990
Maybe we. 
Should die. 

1298
01:09:59,030 --> 01:10:02,630
It's like that's that's that's a
conversation from that's the way

1299
01:10:02,630 --> 01:10:04,590
he comes that's a weird 
conversation to be having on the

1300
01:10:04,590 --> 01:10:08,230
roof of dinosaur killer 
incorporate yeah. 

1301
01:10:09,030 --> 01:10:14,550
Fair. 
So while preparing for the 

1302
01:10:14,550 --> 01:10:18,070
attack on Godzilla, Rodan does 
finally reach Japan. 

1303
01:10:18,970 --> 01:10:21,450
And that's also when they 
determined that Baby Godzilla's 

1304
01:10:21,450 --> 01:10:24,810
eyes are flashing red as like an
SOS signal for Rodan, because 

1305
01:10:24,810 --> 01:10:26,530
Rodan is also kind of its 
parent. 

1306
01:10:28,650 --> 01:10:33,050
And so they are trying to move 
Miss Kojo and Baby Godzilla away

1307
01:10:33,050 --> 01:10:36,570
from the area in like a flying 
like a helicopter in a in a 

1308
01:10:36,570 --> 01:10:40,850
container held by a helicopter 
that gets knocked out of the sky

1309
01:10:40,850 --> 01:10:46,410
by Rodan, who then carries them 
off in the container Mecca 

1310
01:10:46,410 --> 01:10:48,210
Godzilla. 
Is finally ready for liftoff? 

1311
01:10:48,740 --> 01:10:53,420
As Goruda also launches Kazuma's
in Goruda, this time he's like 

1312
01:10:53,580 --> 01:10:55,380
Goruda is like useless without 
me. 

1313
01:10:55,380 --> 01:10:57,380
So obviously I need to be 
piloting Goruda. 

1314
01:10:59,740 --> 01:11:05,540
So he he launches and Rodan 
lands and tries to open the 

1315
01:11:05,540 --> 01:11:10,980
container with Baby Godzilla in 
it, and to try to stop this from

1316
01:11:10,980 --> 01:11:16,240
happening. 
Mecca Godzilla and Goruda attack

1317
01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:19,280
Rodan at the same time. 
After Rodan uses its fire breath

1318
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:23,680
on them. 
Rodan manages to to ground 

1319
01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:27,880
Goruda before getting hit with 
it with a plasma grenade, and it

1320
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,960
seems like Mecca Godzilla is 
about to move in for the kill. 

1321
01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:34,680
But Rodan does like the one 
thing I guess the G Force never 

1322
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:38,080
expected them to to do, which is
to Peck its eyes out. 

1323
01:11:38,850 --> 01:11:41,930
Yeah, the this Mecca Godzilla, 
much like the original Mecca 

1324
01:11:41,930 --> 01:11:47,050
Godzilla in the 70s, is 
basically a walking like turret.

1325
01:11:47,610 --> 01:11:52,490
And if you get up on it, it just
can't do shit, yeah. 

1326
01:11:52,850 --> 01:11:54,570
Like it is weak. 
The Melee like, yeah. 

1327
01:11:54,770 --> 01:11:56,370
Which is, do you think that's 
why the trend? 

1328
01:11:56,370 --> 01:11:59,450
I mean martial arts in case 
there's a walk megazilla. 

1329
01:11:59,690 --> 01:12:02,210
Well, you know what? 
Them doing karate on Godzilla's 

1330
01:12:02,210 --> 01:12:05,050
toes is probably more effective 
than Mecca Godzilla throwing a 

1331
01:12:05,050 --> 01:12:06,450
punch. 
So. 

1332
01:12:07,460 --> 01:12:10,140
While everyone's fighting, the G
Force works on trying to get 

1333
01:12:11,140 --> 01:12:13,100
Baby Godzilla and Miss Kojo out 
of the container. 

1334
01:12:14,900 --> 01:12:19,900
Mecca Godzilla and Godzilla beam
struggle, basically, and the 

1335
01:12:19,900 --> 01:12:22,900
explosion from that knocks 
Godzilla over but shorts out 

1336
01:12:22,900 --> 01:12:25,220
what's left functional of Mecca,
Godzilla's body. 

1337
01:12:26,980 --> 01:12:30,780
Mecca Godzilla is like 
overheating and is losing very 

1338
01:12:30,780 --> 01:12:35,400
badly to Godzilla now. 
The Mecca Godzilla crew like 

1339
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,600
cries out for Cosmo to to to 
show up, and he manages to 

1340
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:41,920
finally relaunch the Garruda 
just in time and like, shoots 

1341
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:43,240
Godzilla to get it away from 
them. 

1342
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,960
And this is where they combine 
to form Super Mecca Godzilla, 

1343
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:51,280
where Garruda basically becomes 
like a battery pack of cannons. 

1344
01:12:51,440 --> 01:12:53,440
It's a jet. 
Pack and shoulder cannons now. 

1345
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:58,080
So like I say, I can. 
Like I was making notes at the 

1346
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:00,560
time movie and I completely 
faced out. 

1347
01:13:01,330 --> 01:13:04,490
To a solid 5 minutes, like 
during that fight and just in 

1348
01:13:04,490 --> 01:13:06,490
all of it. 
But I love that. 

1349
01:13:06,570 --> 01:13:08,330
I love that. 
I love the cut to the guy, to 

1350
01:13:08,330 --> 01:13:11,330
the guys in the boardroom 
watching the video of the fight.

1351
01:13:11,850 --> 01:13:13,610
See, I like. 
The cut to them primarily 

1352
01:13:13,610 --> 01:13:16,530
because Dr. Azimov sits there 
and like does like a little the 

1353
01:13:16,530 --> 01:13:22,290
tiniest fist pumping transform. 
It's just. 

1354
01:13:22,410 --> 01:13:25,730
It's just a lovely little old 
man going, yeah. 

1355
01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:33,320
So combined, they're able to 
actually like hurt Godzilla with

1356
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,720
their lasers and everything. 
And so they activate the G 

1357
01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:39,760
Crusher for Mickey. 
And she's very hesitant to use 

1358
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:41,760
it because, again, she does not 
want to kill Godzilla. 

1359
01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:45,800
But she manages to find the 
second Brain, and they launch 

1360
01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:50,920
the Tasers into it and the final
shot of the G Crusher is fired 

1361
01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:54,520
and Godzilla becomes completely 
paralyzed from the waist down, 

1362
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:58,950
which is really intense. 
Like even just seeing it cuz you

1363
01:13:58,950 --> 01:14:01,390
like it's struggling to move and
you see it like. 

1364
01:14:01,510 --> 01:14:05,190
Cobble over and it's very like, 
oh, we've not seen Godzilla 

1365
01:14:06,030 --> 01:14:08,950
behave like this before. 
We've never seen like this kind 

1366
01:14:08,950 --> 01:14:12,990
of helplessness in the in the, 
hey Say era, At least so. 

1367
01:14:13,910 --> 01:14:19,070
Right. 
So Cosima's like, great, we got 

1368
01:14:19,070 --> 01:14:21,910
him. 
I'm leaving now and he gets in. 

1369
01:14:21,910 --> 01:14:25,150
His Tyranidon flyer just leaves 
Goruda. 

1370
01:14:26,620 --> 01:14:27,980
He's like, no, no, I'm sure. 
You'll stay down. 

1371
01:14:28,940 --> 01:14:32,180
Yeah, no, it's fine. 
Mecca Godzilla does like a full 

1372
01:14:32,180 --> 01:14:34,460
volley of everything and has 
left at Godzilla. 

1373
01:14:36,420 --> 01:14:40,180
Meanwhile, Baby Like emerges 
from the container and it it its

1374
01:14:40,180 --> 01:14:43,060
eyes glow red to reawaken Rodan 
again. 

1375
01:14:43,460 --> 01:14:46,900
And Rodan, just like taking 
shots from Mecca Godzilla along 

1376
01:14:46,900 --> 01:14:49,060
the way. 
Just like falls on the Godzilla 

1377
01:14:49,380 --> 01:14:53,100
and basically does like a 
Phoenix thing and like uses its 

1378
01:14:53,100 --> 01:14:55,260
powers to resurrect Godzilla 
with its energy. 

1379
01:14:55,910 --> 01:14:57,510
So. 
This is clearly supposed to 

1380
01:14:57,510 --> 01:15:00,870
mirror how robots merge, right? 
I I. 

1381
01:15:01,030 --> 01:15:04,470
I think so. 
I think it's kind of funny now. 

1382
01:15:04,470 --> 01:15:08,350
I think it it might be, I don't 
know from like a production 

1383
01:15:08,350 --> 01:15:10,270
standpoint which idea came 
first. 

1384
01:15:10,590 --> 01:15:14,470
But like the robot, Godzilla 
gets defeated and then gets more

1385
01:15:14,470 --> 01:15:17,270
powerful. 
When a robot bird lands on its 

1386
01:15:17,270 --> 01:15:19,870
back it it. 
Feels like this is supposed to 

1387
01:15:19,950 --> 01:15:21,870
be a direct. 
I think it is. 

1388
01:15:21,950 --> 01:15:23,710
Because it's it's pretty on 
point. 

1389
01:15:25,270 --> 01:15:26,590
It it it. 
I mean, it works. 

1390
01:15:26,590 --> 01:15:28,750
Like I was just saying it makes 
sense. 

1391
01:15:28,790 --> 01:15:29,870
Nothing about these movies makes
sense. 

1392
01:15:30,110 --> 01:15:33,710
But like it in in in universe I 
I get it. 

1393
01:15:34,230 --> 01:15:37,870
But like so it falls to him, 
heals him, it doesn't merge into

1394
01:15:37,870 --> 01:15:39,550
him. 
And I assume Godzilla stands 

1395
01:15:39,630 --> 01:15:42,110
when the second he stands up it 
falls off and it's just a cop's.

1396
01:15:42,190 --> 01:15:43,670
Yeah, it's. 
Just dead bird. 

1397
01:15:43,750 --> 01:15:45,030
Because what Dad's? 
Because what? 

1398
01:15:45,270 --> 01:15:46,590
Dad's dead. 
Dead Like what, Dad? 

1399
01:15:47,230 --> 01:15:52,630
What Dad is walking cooked by 
these, by by these. 

1400
01:15:52,630 --> 01:15:56,310
Like don't by Beckman Zilla. 
The amount of power that 

1401
01:15:56,310 --> 01:15:59,390
Godzilla has right no one did 
Japan. 

1402
01:15:59,750 --> 01:16:02,150
Managed to buy Africa. 
If not, it could have just taken

1403
01:16:02,230 --> 01:16:06,150
over Africa. 
But, but yeah, like Rodin, you 

1404
01:16:06,150 --> 01:16:10,630
know, I I guess combination of 
like the native radiation that 

1405
01:16:10,630 --> 01:16:13,990
Rodin had absorbed, you know, 
through however many years of 

1406
01:16:13,990 --> 01:16:18,190
its life it was alive. 
Plus it clearly kind of, despite

1407
01:16:18,190 --> 01:16:19,870
getting its ass whooped by 
Godzilla. 

1408
01:16:19,910 --> 01:16:22,950
Like I think the implication is 
that Rodin was powered up by 

1409
01:16:22,950 --> 01:16:25,790
exposure to. 
Godzilla's radiation. 

1410
01:16:26,670 --> 01:16:29,070
Hence why it. 
Got a Godzilla style breath 

1411
01:16:29,070 --> 01:16:32,310
weapon? 
Like somehow I don't want. 

1412
01:16:32,310 --> 01:16:34,830
It by the way, because this is 
because the whole thing listen 

1413
01:16:34,830 --> 01:16:35,670
to no thought. 
It's healing. 

1414
01:16:35,950 --> 01:16:38,990
So my thing is perhaps. 
Perhaps like? 

1415
01:16:39,150 --> 01:16:42,550
The healing factor? 
Well, I think so. 

1416
01:16:42,590 --> 01:16:45,430
Healing. 
Godzilla has like an absurd 

1417
01:16:45,630 --> 01:16:49,990
regeneration and it's it becomes
like you even see when like 

1418
01:16:49,990 --> 01:16:52,820
Rodin like. 
Passes and imparts. 

1419
01:16:52,820 --> 01:16:55,460
All of it's like built up 
radioactive energy into 

1420
01:16:55,460 --> 01:16:57,820
Godzilla. 
It's kind of like it kickstarts 

1421
01:16:57,820 --> 01:17:01,380
the car again and you literally 
watch the second brain like 

1422
01:17:01,380 --> 01:17:03,940
regenerate itself back into 
being from nothing. 

1423
01:17:03,940 --> 01:17:04,540
You see it? 
Yeah. 

1424
01:17:04,780 --> 01:17:08,020
When they? 
When? 

1425
01:17:08,140 --> 01:17:15,220
They like when Godzilla gets up,
you see it like starts like 

1426
01:17:15,220 --> 01:17:16,660
power up again. 
So to me. 

1427
01:17:17,610 --> 01:17:20,370
That does heavily imply that 
it's something to do with, you 

1428
01:17:20,370 --> 01:17:23,490
know, because when it goes, it's
taken down, it's blasted with 

1429
01:17:23,490 --> 01:17:26,330
like every weapon under the sun.
It clearly takes a lot to kill 

1430
01:17:26,330 --> 01:17:28,730
this thing. 
I'm assuming that one of those 

1431
01:17:28,730 --> 01:17:32,530
beams was to stop the healing. 
You know, well I think that's 

1432
01:17:32,530 --> 01:17:37,170
the idea is that like damaging 
the brain put see. 

1433
01:17:37,170 --> 01:17:39,850
And this thing is I think they 
think they've killed Godzilla. 

1434
01:17:40,490 --> 01:17:43,470
And I think. 
Especially given some of what we

1435
01:17:43,470 --> 01:17:45,310
will learn in future movies 
about Godzilla. 

1436
01:17:45,310 --> 01:17:49,390
But like there's enough there 
now for you to pick this up that

1437
01:17:49,390 --> 01:17:52,430
Godzilla is not dead. 
He's paralyzed, and you could 

1438
01:17:52,430 --> 01:17:55,270
keep wailing away at him until 
there's almost nothing left. 

1439
01:17:55,550 --> 01:17:58,710
But if Mecca Godzilla was to 
leave right now, I think 

1440
01:17:58,710 --> 01:18:01,870
Godzilla would eventually 
regenerate that brain. 

1441
01:18:02,950 --> 01:18:04,830
I went I. 
I kind of got that, but I also 

1442
01:18:04,830 --> 01:18:08,590
went as like Godzilla's 
Commodores, Commodores and I 

1443
01:18:08,590 --> 01:18:11,350
think, I don't think when would 
we channel it, but I think. 

1444
01:18:11,940 --> 01:18:14,340
You have to destroy the man went
to kill this guy. 

1445
01:18:14,900 --> 01:18:18,540
I think it definitely would. 
But like again, they're not 

1446
01:18:18,540 --> 01:18:21,860
going to let it be like Mecca. 
Godzilla is going to keep just 

1447
01:18:21,900 --> 01:18:24,500
unloading on him until there's 
nothing left, because they don't

1448
01:18:24,700 --> 01:18:26,740
their part. 
Is just they see a cop. 

1449
01:18:26,740 --> 01:18:28,420
So they're like fucking, they're
like we're. 

1450
01:18:28,420 --> 01:18:31,140
Not taking a fucking chance, 
which is the correct? 

1451
01:18:32,100 --> 01:18:34,020
Attitude. 
When it comes to Godzilla, it's 

1452
01:18:34,020 --> 01:18:35,380
the correct. 
Response when it comes to a 

1453
01:18:35,380 --> 01:18:38,140
giant, yeah. 
Yeah. 

1454
01:18:39,490 --> 01:18:42,770
So yeah, me he watches the the 
brain regenerate from the G 

1455
01:18:42,770 --> 01:18:46,410
crusher and like the the I guess
the radiant energy from 

1456
01:18:46,410 --> 01:18:48,730
everything going on like 
backfires into the G crusher and

1457
01:18:48,730 --> 01:18:50,730
shocks her so she has take it 
off. 

1458
01:18:51,730 --> 01:18:55,330
So Godzilla stands back up and 
like covered in some of Rodin's 

1459
01:18:55,330 --> 01:18:58,970
like red energy, and then starts
firing like red atomic breaths 

1460
01:18:58,970 --> 01:19:02,530
that actually set things on fire
now, whereas before Supercharged

1461
01:19:02,530 --> 01:19:04,570
there's like. 
A spiral effect to the beam. 

1462
01:19:04,570 --> 01:19:08,410
Now it's it's ridiculous. 
Yeah. 

1463
01:19:10,260 --> 01:19:14,300
And it's firing at Super Mecca 
Godzilla, which can't really do 

1464
01:19:14,300 --> 01:19:17,820
anything about the fact that 
Godzilla is this strong now and 

1465
01:19:17,820 --> 01:19:19,860
it gets completely destroyed. 
Just totally so like we. 

1466
01:19:19,900 --> 01:19:22,500
Have the special alloy and 
diamond coating designed to 

1467
01:19:22,500 --> 01:19:24,660
absorb and reflect Godzilla's 
beam and they're like. 

1468
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:28,800
You know it, and it works like 
we see that it works repeatedly 

1469
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:32,080
to just absorb the energy so 
that it can be redirected 

1470
01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:34,760
through the the chest laser, the
plasma grenade. 

1471
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:37,720
But then God's only gets the 
power up and it's just like, oh,

1472
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:39,400
but we can't do nothing about 
that. 

1473
01:19:40,480 --> 01:19:42,480
And it just gets. 
Just gets fucking. 

1474
01:19:42,520 --> 01:19:44,600
Blown. 
To pieces. 

1475
01:19:47,810 --> 01:19:50,530
And it cuts back to the control 
room and they're once again 

1476
01:19:50,530 --> 01:19:52,930
shocked because it's like, well,
the computer's. 

1477
01:19:52,930 --> 01:19:55,730
Like, well, crew are dead and 
they're like, no, we're not. 

1478
01:19:59,570 --> 01:20:01,490
Yeah, no, they just leave. 
They're just like fuck. 

1479
01:20:01,490 --> 01:20:04,850
This. 
We're off the clock now, yeah. 

1480
01:20:06,690 --> 01:20:09,710
So. 
The G force decides that they 

1481
01:20:09,710 --> 01:20:11,830
just need to leave baby Godzilla
in a field. 

1482
01:20:11,990 --> 01:20:14,310
Just give the baby back to 
Godzilla, people say. 

1483
01:20:14,630 --> 01:20:18,710
This is just a lot of trouble if
we just gave Godzilla the baby, 

1484
01:20:19,630 --> 01:20:20,630
yeah. 
Is this? 

1485
01:20:21,150 --> 01:20:23,910
So this is like the field in the
beach, isn't it? 

1486
01:20:23,910 --> 01:20:27,110
I just love because in this 
exact moment, they cut to a shot

1487
01:20:27,710 --> 01:20:29,150
of Godzilla next to Baby 
Godzilla. 

1488
01:20:29,150 --> 01:20:30,270
I'm like, oh, that is just a 
dude. 

1489
01:20:30,310 --> 01:20:33,390
That's just a dude in a suit. 
Because they bought. 

1490
01:20:33,390 --> 01:20:34,670
Into the suit I my player was 
like. 

1491
01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:37,440
Is that an actual child in like 
this Halloween costume? 

1492
01:20:37,440 --> 01:20:39,960
Do you think like that's that's 
that's an actual kid? 

1493
01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:45,080
Now they did use they did use a 
a dwarf actor back in this the 

1494
01:20:45,120 --> 01:20:49,160
60s for the the horrible 
Pillsbury Dough Boy, Baby 

1495
01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:50,880
Godzilla. 
Yeah. 

1496
01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:52,840
I mean, so, you know, maybe they
did that again. 

1497
01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:57,080
I don't know. 
I actually didn't see keep going

1498
01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:58,240
because I'm, I'm going to look 
this up. 

1499
01:20:58,920 --> 01:20:59,520
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

1500
01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:04,080
So baby Godzilla, of course, 
doesn't want to go because it. 

1501
01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:10,680
To it, you know it's Mom is Miss
Gojo or Godzilla. 

1502
01:21:10,680 --> 01:21:13,600
As you should be There, there's.
That too. 

1503
01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:15,840
I mean, it's it's never actually
been around Godzilla, not 

1504
01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:20,360
really. 
But Gojo asks Mickey if she'll 

1505
01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:23,240
play the music that they got 
earlier for for baby Godzilla to

1506
01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:28,680
understand that it's time to go.
Yeah, so she does that and the 

1507
01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:30,840
Godzilla's come to an 
understanding and they go out 

1508
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:34,590
into the water and. 
One of them says, like, after 

1509
01:21:34,590 --> 01:21:36,350
all this, I think the winner is 
life. 

1510
01:21:37,150 --> 01:21:40,430
And so everyone's like, I wonder
if the Godzillas really, or the 

1511
01:21:40,430 --> 01:21:43,990
dinosaurs rather really, will 
come back after humans are gone.

1512
01:21:44,430 --> 01:21:46,390
And then the Godzillas March 
into the ocean. 

1513
01:21:46,390 --> 01:21:52,270
As the credits roll, Tada I. 
I I love how this this no 

1514
01:21:52,270 --> 01:21:53,670
resolution to the destruction of
Chaotic. 

1515
01:21:54,030 --> 01:21:55,470
There's not really a resolution 
to this movie. 

1516
01:21:55,710 --> 01:21:57,910
It's just they're gonna have to 
rebuild between movies again, 

1517
01:21:57,910 --> 01:21:59,790
because what can they fucking 
do, you know? 

1518
01:22:01,170 --> 01:22:02,570
These next. 
Two weeks are going to be 

1519
01:22:02,610 --> 01:22:09,370
exactly this is so like, there's
no way around like how I feel 

1520
01:22:09,370 --> 01:22:11,450
about this movie other than to 
say. 

1521
01:22:12,490 --> 01:22:15,170
There's there's been this 
anxiety right, that I've 

1522
01:22:15,170 --> 01:22:19,210
mentioned on the last several 
episodes of the the Hey Say era 

1523
01:22:19,210 --> 01:22:23,210
has been so good that we're 
going to hit a point where a 

1524
01:22:23,210 --> 01:22:27,450
movie is not that good and it's 
going to hurt or where a movie 

1525
01:22:27,450 --> 01:22:31,670
is bad and it's going to hurt. 
And this is almost the most 

1526
01:22:31,670 --> 01:22:35,230
interesting way this could have 
gone from a certain perspective.

1527
01:22:35,230 --> 01:22:39,950
Because I think that as a 
blockbuster, right, as a big 

1528
01:22:40,190 --> 01:22:45,230
flashy, special effects filled 
action movie, this is a really 

1529
01:22:45,230 --> 01:22:54,470
good movie from a perspective of
like following up the the themes

1530
01:22:54,470 --> 01:22:58,330
and intentionality of a lot of 
the, you know, the, hey say 

1531
01:22:58,330 --> 01:23:02,130
movies up to now. 
This is a movie almost without 

1532
01:23:03,050 --> 01:23:06,850
real messaging behind it. 
It is the purest action movie 

1533
01:23:06,850 --> 01:23:09,850
we've gotten out of this lot. 
And it's a good one. 

1534
01:23:10,130 --> 01:23:12,450
It's, it's, it's it's a very 
good one. 

1535
01:23:13,130 --> 01:23:20,170
But you know it. 
It's kind of sad to see, you 

1536
01:23:20,170 --> 01:23:24,330
know, a lot of the because like 
Godzilla versus Biolante has a 

1537
01:23:24,330 --> 01:23:30,210
lot of shit to say about like 
kind of soft economic warfare 

1538
01:23:30,210 --> 01:23:35,490
between countries, right? 
And about like the emerging like

1539
01:23:35,490 --> 01:23:41,530
biotech industry and and genetic
editing of like agriculture, you

1540
01:23:41,530 --> 01:23:42,490
know? 
And Godzilla versus King 

1541
01:23:42,490 --> 01:23:45,370
Ghidorah has a lot of really 
complicated things to say about,

1542
01:23:45,370 --> 01:23:48,290
like the relationship between 
Japan and the rest of the world 

1543
01:23:48,450 --> 01:23:52,690
and about nationalism, you know,
then Godzilla versus Mothra is 

1544
01:23:52,690 --> 01:23:55,450
it's it's very heavy-handed with
it, but it's a very 

1545
01:23:55,450 --> 01:23:58,770
straightforward environmental 
message that does not pull its 

1546
01:23:58,770 --> 01:24:00,450
punches. 
And then this is. 

1547
01:24:01,370 --> 01:24:04,210
Just an action movie, you know? 
Yeah. 

1548
01:24:05,050 --> 01:24:08,370
Actually I think it's really 
good like but as if you want 

1549
01:24:08,370 --> 01:24:12,890
commentary or if you want if you
want a plot that is anything 

1550
01:24:12,890 --> 01:24:15,090
more than service level, you're 
not going to find it. 

1551
01:24:15,930 --> 01:24:17,330
There's, there's not the same 
like. 

1552
01:24:17,450 --> 01:24:20,170
There's obviously a little bit 
of of. 

1553
01:24:21,130 --> 01:24:25,010
Kind of lip service paid to the 
idea of like, is it a good idea 

1554
01:24:25,010 --> 01:24:27,890
to kill Godzilla? 
You know, primarily through 

1555
01:24:27,890 --> 01:24:31,050
Mickey Segusa, right? 
Of like Godzilla is a part of 

1556
01:24:31,050 --> 01:24:33,810
this Earth one way or another, 
the baby is a part of this Earth

1557
01:24:33,810 --> 01:24:36,570
one way or another. 
Like they should be together. 

1558
01:24:36,690 --> 01:24:39,290
Like this is the correct and 
natural order of things and 

1559
01:24:39,290 --> 01:24:41,850
human interference. 
And this is probably bad, but 

1560
01:24:41,850 --> 01:24:48,040
like that is so lip service 
level, you know you could type 

1561
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:49,520
all. 
Of that, and it would change 

1562
01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:53,560
nothing about the plot, about 
you know any, almost any 

1563
01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:57,560
individual scene. 
So you know what? 

1564
01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,120
What? 
I get is like you could diss 

1565
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:02,280
also the robots like it's the I 
don't think see I don't think 

1566
01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:07,440
you call it robots but every 
like they don't even resolve 

1567
01:25:07,440 --> 01:25:09,520
that like he's playing with like
mobile. 

1568
01:25:11,450 --> 01:25:12,690
That's one point throughout the 
movie. 

1569
01:25:12,970 --> 01:25:17,370
And he's clearly got a thing for
the Doctor and movie just ends 

1570
01:25:17,370 --> 01:25:21,370
with him extolling the 
possibility that maybe we should

1571
01:25:21,370 --> 01:25:23,130
die. 
And that's how it ends. 

1572
01:25:23,130 --> 01:25:26,050
And it's like, you could have 
caught the woman stuff, could 

1573
01:25:26,050 --> 01:25:26,410
it? 
Yeah. 

1574
01:25:26,410 --> 01:25:29,250
And I mean, like, you know, 
yeah, there's like, there's not 

1575
01:25:29,250 --> 01:25:32,990
really any character arc for any
people in the movie, which, you 

1576
01:25:32,990 --> 01:25:36,670
know, usually Godzilla movies 
are is going to sound so funny 

1577
01:25:36,670 --> 01:25:39,630
to say, like for you, Ryan. 
But people who've been listening

1578
01:25:39,630 --> 01:25:43,230
to Castle Bravo know, like a lot
of these movies thrive on their 

1579
01:25:43,230 --> 01:25:44,950
human stories. 
Oh no. 

1580
01:25:45,110 --> 01:25:47,630
I get that. 
Like even like I I don't, I 

1581
01:25:47,630 --> 01:25:49,590
don't like the human stories in 
the Hollywood. 

1582
01:25:49,590 --> 01:25:52,510
Well, yeah, none of the American
movies have good human stories 

1583
01:25:52,510 --> 01:25:53,710
to them. 
But yeah, but if. 

1584
01:25:53,710 --> 01:25:55,750
But I know for a fact that you 
can't. 

1585
01:25:56,670 --> 01:25:58,790
It's just the same. 
As any actual movie, you can't 

1586
01:25:58,790 --> 01:26:02,390
fly from pure. 
Explosion well like you have to 

1587
01:26:02,430 --> 01:26:08,470
have even in even in movies like
even in like these like the 

1588
01:26:08,470 --> 01:26:10,990
older Fast and Furious is 
they're all like oh we have 

1589
01:26:11,190 --> 01:26:14,270
we're going to focus on like 
this is do all explosions but 

1590
01:26:14,270 --> 01:26:17,150
these also need to have like. 
And again, this is where a lot 

1591
01:26:17,150 --> 01:26:19,830
of the Japanese Godzilla movies 
really thrive is they tend to 

1592
01:26:19,830 --> 01:26:25,430
have very charismatic casts of 
characters who often times, 

1593
01:26:25,430 --> 01:26:28,950
especially in all of the older 
ones, like represent things 

1594
01:26:29,150 --> 01:26:32,190
right more than they represent 
like individual humans. 

1595
01:26:32,590 --> 01:26:34,230
A lot of really interesting shit
there. 

1596
01:26:34,230 --> 01:26:38,550
But like, you know, yeah, this 
is, this is the most like we put

1597
01:26:38,550 --> 01:26:41,910
all of our money into making the
biggest bang we could. 

1598
01:26:43,790 --> 01:26:47,270
And I'm kind of glad this 
doesn't end up being the last, 

1599
01:26:47,270 --> 01:26:51,790
Hey Say movie, because the 
actual final movie does so much 

1600
01:26:51,790 --> 01:26:56,190
better at being this big of a 
blockbuster while also being a 

1601
01:26:57,430 --> 01:27:01,110
like, story about people, you 
know? 

1602
01:27:01,750 --> 01:27:05,190
But yeah, this is, this is, this
is fun to watch. 

1603
01:27:06,150 --> 01:27:09,630
But in the grand scheme of like 
the arc of the hey, say era, to 

1604
01:27:09,630 --> 01:27:14,230
me this is, this is better than 
a bad movie. 

1605
01:27:14,630 --> 01:27:18,950
But you know, I'm, I'm a little 
disappointed to see, like y'all 

1606
01:27:18,950 --> 01:27:23,630
didn't really even try to put in
any kind of, like, you know, old

1607
01:27:23,630 --> 01:27:25,630
Pope scifi. 
Let's let's make a message at 

1608
01:27:25,630 --> 01:27:28,040
the end of the movie. 
It's like this is like. 

1609
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:30,560
A solid this is a great three or
five, yeah. 

1610
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:34,720
Yeah, this. 
This this, it does what I 

1611
01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:36,760
expect. 
It is what I as a as a newcomer 

1612
01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:39,680
expect from this type of where 
it will floor you, as you 

1613
01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:43,480
repeatedly said you were right, 
is just like the sheer quality 

1614
01:27:43,480 --> 01:27:48,280
of like filmmaking of special 
effects work of of the you know,

1615
01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:51,760
of the production they they. 
Pull They pulled the entire 

1616
01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:53,600
Godzilla state into these 
special effects. 

1617
01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:54,640
You're the fuck. 
Dead. 

1618
01:27:56,230 --> 01:27:58,750
Like holy. 
Some of these, some of these 

1619
01:27:58,750 --> 01:28:00,470
shots. 
Oh. 

1620
01:28:00,470 --> 01:28:04,150
Insanely just just. 
Just like. 

1621
01:28:04,310 --> 01:28:07,310
I'm like, this is, this was 
night night, so this was night, 

1622
01:28:07,310 --> 01:28:12,110
night, night. 
Nobody does night sequences like

1623
01:28:12,110 --> 01:28:14,590
the, hey Say Godzilla movies. 
I mean, I just think they look 

1624
01:28:14,590 --> 01:28:17,870
so fucking good. 
You know? 

1625
01:28:17,990 --> 01:28:19,830
Here's the thing. 
I'm ultimately willing to put a 

1626
01:28:19,830 --> 01:28:22,910
lot of this on the writer, write
Watari Mimura. 

1627
01:28:22,990 --> 01:28:25,870
This is his first movie credit 
that I could find. 

1628
01:28:27,350 --> 01:28:31,150
And you know it. 
He put together something that 

1629
01:28:31,550 --> 01:28:35,270
was workmanlike, right? 
It it worked. 

1630
01:28:35,630 --> 01:28:38,710
It just wasn't anything special.
I do think future movies that he

1631
01:28:38,710 --> 01:28:43,030
works on or better, you know. 
So when I say that he goes on to

1632
01:28:43,030 --> 01:28:45,550
write several Millennium era 
movies like Charlotte, that's 

1633
01:28:45,550 --> 01:28:50,830
not a threat, I promise you. 
But yeah. 

1634
01:28:52,980 --> 01:28:58,100
So of course, you know, this, 
this being the blockbuster it 

1635
01:28:58,100 --> 01:29:01,820
was, this bitch did also make 
some motherfucking money. 

1636
01:29:03,220 --> 01:29:06,460
You know this I think coming off
of the coattails of Godzilla 

1637
01:29:06,460 --> 01:29:11,980
versus Mothra, you know, people 
were excited for the series of 

1638
01:29:11,980 --> 01:29:13,860
movies. 
Again, bringing back Mecca. 

1639
01:29:13,860 --> 01:29:15,700
Godzilla was clearly a good 
call. 

1640
01:29:15,700 --> 01:29:18,950
Like this. 
This one made some some 

1641
01:29:18,950 --> 01:29:26,350
motherfucking money and and 
that, plus the fact that Sony's 

1642
01:29:26,350 --> 01:29:29,910
Godzilla movie was clearly 
having production problems. 

1643
01:29:30,110 --> 01:29:33,070
They were like, what if we just 
pump out like one or two more of

1644
01:29:33,070 --> 01:29:36,150
these? 
Which I think ends up being the 

1645
01:29:36,150 --> 01:29:40,470
correct call, even if there is a
deep pit in the bottom of my 

1646
01:29:40,470 --> 01:29:43,990
stomach for. 
What Godzilla versus space 

1647
01:29:43,990 --> 01:29:45,590
Godzilla is going to be Like 
because. 

1648
01:29:46,810 --> 01:29:49,130
I mentioned that a couple times 
and it's a little scary, you 

1649
01:29:49,130 --> 01:29:51,730
know, we'll find out, but I 
don't. 

1650
01:29:51,730 --> 01:29:56,650
I don't have high hopes. 
But maybe as with many of these 

1651
01:29:56,650 --> 01:29:58,730
movies, right, I've I've been 
like, these are hokey. 

1652
01:29:58,730 --> 01:30:01,730
And then we watch the original 
Japanese versions with the 

1653
01:30:01,730 --> 01:30:04,970
original performances, with the 
original scripts, you know, and 

1654
01:30:04,970 --> 01:30:09,250
proper translations, and they 
end up being much better films 

1655
01:30:09,250 --> 01:30:11,370
for it. 
So let's all we'll see what 

1656
01:30:11,370 --> 01:30:16,040
happens. 
I do have two really good. 

1657
01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:20,440
Now, Ryan, you're not familiar 
with this bit, but many of these

1658
01:30:20,440 --> 01:30:24,320
Godzilla movies have truly 
ridiculous titles in other 

1659
01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:29,440
countries. 
Every single Godzilla movie had 

1660
01:30:29,440 --> 01:30:34,320
a reference to Frankenstein in 
Germany for like 15 years. 

1661
01:30:35,680 --> 01:30:37,200
I mean, I. 
Guess I guess I get. 

1662
01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:38,320
I get it. 
It was. 

1663
01:30:38,320 --> 01:30:40,520
So it was like, Frank, you know 
what it would be like 

1664
01:30:40,930 --> 01:30:43,490
Frankenstein versus the Devil 
Monsters, right? 

1665
01:30:43,490 --> 01:30:47,370
And it would be like Godzilla 
versus Geigen or something like 

1666
01:30:47,370 --> 01:30:48,210
that, right? 
It would be. 

1667
01:30:48,210 --> 01:30:53,090
It was so, so ridiculous. 
They we've lost the Frankenstein

1668
01:30:53,090 --> 01:30:58,450
naming, but some of these names 
are still very good, so. 

1669
01:30:59,330 --> 01:31:03,730
Coming from Russia in In yet 
another example of Russia you 

1670
01:31:03,730 --> 01:31:08,130
didn't even try See me after 
class legend of the dinosaur 2. 

1671
01:31:09,730 --> 01:31:12,830
That's. 
Legend of the dinosaur 2O. 

1672
01:31:13,470 --> 01:31:16,630
K Check OK, if you might have 
this, what was Godzilla versus 

1673
01:31:16,630 --> 01:31:18,070
Mecca? 
Godzilla 1 called in Usha. 

1674
01:31:18,510 --> 01:31:21,430
That's a good question I can 
find out right now, because it 

1675
01:31:21,430 --> 01:31:22,630
wasn't. 
Legend of the dinosaur? 

1676
01:31:22,670 --> 01:31:25,270
No, I think that Godzilla, if I 
remember correctly, Godzilla 

1677
01:31:25,270 --> 01:31:28,470
versus Moth or the previous hey 
say movie was Legend of the 

1678
01:31:28,470 --> 01:31:33,190
Dinosaur in how did. 
No, but how did nobody go for 

1679
01:31:33,750 --> 01:31:35,310
the Godzilla? 
Well done and baby. 

1680
01:31:35,310 --> 01:31:37,390
Make three. 
That's good. 

1681
01:31:39,060 --> 01:31:43,860
I don't know. 
I don't see a Russian title for 

1682
01:31:43,860 --> 01:31:48,660
the original, although at the 
time I mean again, this is the 

1683
01:31:48,700 --> 01:31:54,180
the 1970s that the first one 
hit, so not too much a surprise.

1684
01:31:55,100 --> 01:32:00,860
Now I do want to give this is a 
ridiculous title and in India 

1685
01:32:00,860 --> 01:32:03,860
this was called Jurassic City 
which is. 

1686
01:32:05,180 --> 01:32:09,900
That's. 
That's a ripping name if there 

1687
01:32:09,900 --> 01:32:12,780
was any semblance of a Jurassic 
City in this movie. 

1688
01:32:12,780 --> 01:32:16,100
But it's a great fucking and I 
do appreciate it. 

1689
01:32:16,260 --> 01:32:18,420
They don't they. 
Don't fight in the city like 

1690
01:32:18,420 --> 01:32:21,940
they fight once in the city. 
When did Jurasic Park One 

1691
01:32:21,940 --> 01:32:24,060
release? 
Is it 90? 

1692
01:32:25,060 --> 01:32:26,940
That was 90. 
Three, I think it was. 

1693
01:32:27,060 --> 01:32:30,940
So it could be literally just an
attempt to June. 

1694
01:32:31,060 --> 01:32:34,340
June 93 Let me check with 
Godzilla when Godzilla came out,

1695
01:32:34,860 --> 01:32:37,500
because I think this is I think 
this is them directly trying. 

1696
01:32:38,180 --> 01:32:39,260
To. 
Get the. 

1697
01:32:40,980 --> 01:32:46,180
December of 93, so yes, this. 
Was definitely what happened. 

1698
01:32:46,180 --> 01:32:51,060
Yeah, so it's weird cuz. 
Cuz like the one the one name 

1699
01:32:51,060 --> 01:32:53,300
that the Jurassic Park movies 
haven't touched upon yet is 

1700
01:32:53,300 --> 01:32:55,140
trusted. 
He's coming next and then India 

1701
01:32:55,140 --> 01:32:57,180
is going to be like, Nope, you 
got to change it over here. 

1702
01:32:57,180 --> 01:33:00,060
We already got one. 
Yeah. 

1703
01:33:00,060 --> 01:33:02,460
Do we go, we go. 
Jurassic Park, Jurasic City. 

1704
01:33:02,460 --> 01:33:04,420
It's getting small. 
Well, you know that's that's, 

1705
01:33:04,620 --> 01:33:08,740
you know when you're when you're
expanded like Sequel, trilogy 

1706
01:33:08,900 --> 01:33:12,020
just gets too big and you've got
to scale it down for the 

1707
01:33:13,300 --> 01:33:16,740
successful prestige reboot. 
You know, eight years later. 

1708
01:33:17,430 --> 01:33:19,150
Yeah, Jurassic City is perfect 
for that. 

1709
01:33:20,110 --> 01:33:28,750
Jurassic Jurassic St. 
So a couple couple little little

1710
01:33:28,750 --> 01:33:32,990
minor points. 
Of note is this is basically the

1711
01:33:32,990 --> 01:33:37,270
the first appearance of the 
patented and long running what I

1712
01:33:37,270 --> 01:33:42,110
call the Godzilla sacrifice. 
Power up where somebody dies to 

1713
01:33:42,110 --> 01:33:44,230
power up Godzilla. 
See I. 

1714
01:33:44,230 --> 01:33:46,310
Noticed this because that's 
somebody coming from the 

1715
01:33:46,310 --> 01:33:49,110
Hollywood era. 
The exact same thing happens in 

1716
01:33:49,110 --> 01:33:51,430
King of the Monsters, except the
person. 

1717
01:33:51,710 --> 01:33:55,710
The person that that that dies. 
Part of his fucking kid and 

1718
01:33:55,710 --> 01:33:59,430
Mothra. 
But but like this, this happens 

1719
01:33:59,550 --> 01:34:02,750
several times afterwards. 
This is this is like where it 

1720
01:34:02,750 --> 01:34:07,830
happens though for the first 
time, and it will prove to have 

1721
01:34:07,830 --> 01:34:10,870
disastrous results that we'll be
talking about in a couple of 

1722
01:34:10,870 --> 01:34:15,620
episodes. 
Also, I'm going to point out 

1723
01:34:15,620 --> 01:34:19,180
like reimagining Mecca Godzilla 
as a human weapon because the 

1724
01:34:19,180 --> 01:34:21,460
original one in the 70s was from
aliens. 

1725
01:34:22,540 --> 01:34:26,340
This proved really popular. 
Like Mecca Godzilla has never 

1726
01:34:26,340 --> 01:34:29,740
been an alien creation outside 
of its original version. 

1727
01:34:30,260 --> 01:34:31,980
Mecca Godzilla has been brought 
back. 

1728
01:34:33,100 --> 01:34:35,580
There's there's what, 4 
incarnations of Mecca Godzilla 

1729
01:34:35,580 --> 01:34:39,940
at this point? 
Yeah, he's in Godzilla versus 

1730
01:34:39,940 --> 01:34:47,140
Kong. 
But the yeah, all, all three of 

1731
01:34:47,140 --> 01:34:51,940
the like, later versions have 
all been human created. 

1732
01:34:52,540 --> 01:34:55,140
And to be fair, like, I get it. 
Like, unless you're bringing in 

1733
01:34:55,140 --> 01:35:00,460
aliens, which is a harder pill 
to swallow by modern American 

1734
01:35:00,460 --> 01:35:04,700
blockbuster logic. 
To which I say fuck off, because

1735
01:35:05,860 --> 01:35:08,620
alien invasion movies are great.
Like did you not? 

1736
01:35:12,380 --> 01:35:16,980
Oh yeah, you know what I mean? 
Like and and most of the 70s, 

1737
01:35:18,380 --> 01:35:22,220
but but yeah it's it's this is 
the first time that happens and 

1738
01:35:22,220 --> 01:35:26,340
I think that becomes honestly 
more iconic this this is almost 

1739
01:35:26,340 --> 01:35:29,980
a more iconic like point for 
Mecca Godzilla than the 70s ones

1740
01:35:29,980 --> 01:35:32,780
are in terms of like cultural 
memory. 

1741
01:35:34,940 --> 01:35:37,700
But yeah, that's that's our last
little trivia bits. 

1742
01:35:39,170 --> 01:35:41,250
Here's my final questions I've 
got for y'all. 

1743
01:35:41,970 --> 01:35:44,490
Because we know this is not a 
movie that has a lot to say, but

1744
01:35:45,330 --> 01:35:48,610
what about this movie is 
probably going to stick with you

1745
01:35:48,610 --> 01:35:57,770
the most, you think? 
Just a couple and talk to 

1746
01:35:57,770 --> 01:35:59,930
someone. 
Dinosaur man's the best. 

1747
01:36:00,890 --> 01:36:03,810
I like. 
He's he's sticking with me not 

1748
01:36:03,810 --> 01:36:05,410
because like, I think he's the 
amazing character. 

1749
01:36:07,640 --> 01:36:10,800
I love it. 
I I I was texting Charlotte when

1750
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:13,120
I was watching the movie. 
Where is it? 

1751
01:36:13,120 --> 01:36:16,600
I said. 
This guy shares a lot of screen 

1752
01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:19,640
time with our favorite scrimble 
Miki Sagusa, and the energy they

1753
01:36:19,640 --> 01:36:22,600
collectively give off is who 
gave them responsibility. 

1754
01:36:24,210 --> 01:36:26,290
And then I said, actually, no. 
No. 

1755
01:36:26,450 --> 01:36:30,050
Well, stick me then, I said. 
Nikki hasn't figured out, but 

1756
01:36:30,050 --> 01:36:31,770
reads like she needs a 
chaperone. 

1757
01:36:32,250 --> 01:36:34,450
Aoki, the you know, the 
protagonist, reads like a 

1758
01:36:34,450 --> 01:36:37,650
chaperone but actually should 
not be allowed on field trips. 

1759
01:36:38,290 --> 01:36:41,810
Collectively they are Scooby 
dooing shit, and I stand by 

1760
01:36:41,810 --> 01:36:46,290
every word of that. 
So one last thing I want to hit 

1761
01:36:46,290 --> 01:36:53,000
you both with before we sign off
is Baby Godzilla is going to 

1762
01:36:53,000 --> 01:36:56,640
stick around for these last two 
hey say era movies. 

1763
01:36:56,880 --> 01:36:58,880
And he's going to, does he? 
Grow. 

1764
01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:02,160
Does he grow up and he's going 
to change drastically? 

1765
01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:05,760
Okay. 
Do you have a full of what 

1766
01:37:06,320 --> 01:37:07,280
you'll see? 
Yep. 

1767
01:37:08,440 --> 01:37:09,840
For me. 
Like automatically. 

1768
01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:12,640
Like this movie is clearly 
trying to say something about 

1769
01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:14,160
politics. 
Doing. 

1770
01:37:14,160 --> 01:37:17,400
So what's interesting is it 
doesn't yet, but the 

1771
01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:23,310
introduction of Godzilla Junior 
does like really heavily alter 

1772
01:37:23,310 --> 01:37:26,150
the course of Godzilla for the 
the last two movies. 

1773
01:37:26,390 --> 01:37:29,070
So it it makes more of a 
difference in the in the last 

1774
01:37:29,070 --> 01:37:32,670
two than it does to this one. 
So this is, this is little 

1775
01:37:32,670 --> 01:37:35,910
Godzilla in the next movie, In 
the next two. 

1776
01:37:36,710 --> 01:37:39,190
Next, they turned him into a 
better well. 

1777
01:37:39,190 --> 01:37:42,390
No, he's much bigger. 
Do you know what he? 

1778
01:37:42,430 --> 01:37:46,290
Looks like he looks like. 
The the the fun. 

1779
01:37:46,290 --> 01:37:48,890
The menace. 
Specific baby the the the Yoda 

1780
01:37:49,130 --> 01:37:49,850
fun. 
The menace. 

1781
01:37:50,850 --> 01:37:52,690
But it looks like the Yoda fun. 
The menace. 

1782
01:37:52,690 --> 01:37:58,010
Like, they've not quite got it 
yet, but but, like, they're 

1783
01:37:58,090 --> 01:38:00,810
trying well, and like, here's 
the thing, they're clearly 

1784
01:38:00,810 --> 01:38:05,450
trying to get something that is 
much closer to mania from the 

1785
01:38:05,490 --> 01:38:08,650
earlier movies, right? 
But something that looks less 

1786
01:38:08,770 --> 01:38:11,090
cursed, right? 
This is actually cute. 

1787
01:38:11,650 --> 01:38:14,330
Yeah, they're. 
Also doing it so that they can. 

1788
01:38:14,920 --> 01:38:17,760
So 100% they were like, we're 
going to merchandise the fuck 

1789
01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:21,400
out of this little dude because.
I buy one immediately. 

1790
01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:24,400
Great. 
I'm Googling. 

1791
01:38:24,680 --> 01:38:28,240
I'm trying to see if there's one
available right now, and then 

1792
01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:31,720
there's not a ton of good 
pictures, which is weird that 

1793
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,280
I'm finding. 
Which is weird because he's a 

1794
01:38:34,280 --> 01:38:39,440
huge part of the final movie, 
But Godzilla? 

1795
01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:46,070
Godzilla's Godzilla Junior in 
the final movie of the era is 

1796
01:38:46,070 --> 01:38:52,190
just a slimmer Godzilla. 
This is a basically grown up, 

1797
01:38:52,190 --> 01:38:56,070
like slimmed down that you you 
will notice that the it's not as

1798
01:38:56,110 --> 01:38:59,630
easy to tell from this fucking 
mugshot, but like he's got much 

1799
01:38:59,630 --> 01:39:03,270
slimmer like legs and a tail. 
Like he's just not as big as 

1800
01:39:03,270 --> 01:39:07,110
Godzilla, but he's basically, 
you know, fully formed out of 

1801
01:39:07,110 --> 01:39:10,030
the cute phase. 
Love Godzilla Junior. 

1802
01:39:10,270 --> 01:39:14,880
So fun stuff ahead Ryan. 
You should definitely watch 

1803
01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:17,000
through all of the hey say era 
movies. 

1804
01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:18,120
They're. 
I'm. 

1805
01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:20,960
Absolutely. 
Once I'm done, once I'm done 

1806
01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:28,080
with this, maybe never. 
So yeah, because. 

1807
01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:31,720
Yeah, once I'm done with that, 
I'm definitely going to go back 

1808
01:39:31,720 --> 01:39:34,840
and give the rest of my goal 
because I am impressed by how 

1809
01:39:34,920 --> 01:39:37,360
this holds up. 
Charlotte, I'm gonna toss over 

1810
01:39:37,360 --> 01:39:39,880
to you as far as what you think 
will stick with you the most out

1811
01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:43,120
of this movie. 
Mega Godzilla is fucking great, 

1812
01:39:43,120 --> 01:39:45,080
isn't it? 
It's just cool. 

1813
01:39:45,240 --> 01:39:48,880
Like, it's curvy, it's smooth, 
it's my it's like this is the 

1814
01:39:48,880 --> 01:39:52,000
90s and idea of the future and I
love it. 

1815
01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:55,000
I. 
Had thoughts about its hips that

1816
01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:58,360
I'm not going to share, but like
someone, someone don't be horny 

1817
01:39:58,360 --> 01:40:00,920
on me, someone built that 
intentionally. 

1818
01:40:01,720 --> 01:40:03,160
Will. 
It be fair, Godzilla got them 

1819
01:40:03,160 --> 01:40:05,400
hips and thighs too in the in 
the Heysay era. 

1820
01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:09,740
They're just trying to copy. 
But like, God I love especially 

1821
01:40:09,740 --> 01:40:14,540
that shot when Godzilla is 
getting back up and and you see 

1822
01:40:14,540 --> 01:40:18,020
Mecca Godzilla like turn around 
and 1st the head swivels and 

1823
01:40:18,020 --> 01:40:22,780
then the torso swivels and then 
the leg swivel with it is such a

1824
01:40:22,780 --> 01:40:26,780
like like that's fucking suit 
acting right there. 

1825
01:40:28,460 --> 01:40:34,300
Yeah, I'm sad that Rodan got 
done kind of dirty, but like. 

1826
01:40:35,390 --> 01:40:37,430
That's going to be the future of
this movie. 

1827
01:40:37,430 --> 01:40:39,670
Kind of like because of the, hey
say era. 

1828
01:40:39,670 --> 01:40:43,950
We kind of established the idea 
that like Godzilla, Mothra, King

1829
01:40:43,950 --> 01:40:48,350
Ghidorah, Mecca, Godzilla, Rodan
are the five like recurring 

1830
01:40:48,350 --> 01:40:51,830
things you will see. 
So you know they're all in the 

1831
01:40:51,830 --> 01:40:55,030
original Shoah era, they're all 
in the hey say era. 

1832
01:40:55,270 --> 01:40:58,790
They're all in the, like, 
Millennium era of films, 

1833
01:40:58,790 --> 01:41:00,990
although Rodan nearly misses 
out. 

1834
01:41:02,420 --> 01:41:04,980
But I mean, again, Rodin's kind 
of always put on a bit of a 

1835
01:41:04,980 --> 01:41:07,660
lower tier from here out than 
the others are. 

1836
01:41:07,900 --> 01:41:10,740
And of course every one of them 
makes appearances in the, you 

1837
01:41:10,740 --> 01:41:15,540
know, the the Warner Brothers 
you know, monster verse movies 

1838
01:41:15,540 --> 01:41:19,180
that are that are out right now.
But but yeah, Rodin's always 

1839
01:41:19,180 --> 01:41:21,620
been a favorite of mine, but he 
just gets less and less relevant

1840
01:41:21,620 --> 01:41:23,460
as time goes on. 
And that's OKI. 

1841
01:41:23,460 --> 01:41:25,700
I I accept it. 
I'm a hipster. 

1842
01:41:26,340 --> 01:41:28,340
So. 
Do we have any? 

1843
01:41:28,340 --> 01:41:31,220
Other final thoughts on this 
movie, Yeah. 

1844
01:41:31,930 --> 01:41:36,410
Yeah, Well then, folks. 
That is a wrap on this episode. 

1845
01:41:36,810 --> 01:41:39,010
Thank you all so much for 
joining us on our journey so 

1846
01:41:39,010 --> 01:41:42,490
far. 
Ryan, where can people find you?

1847
01:41:42,490 --> 01:41:44,410
And do you have anything you 
feel like plugging for our 

1848
01:41:44,410 --> 01:41:48,770
listeners? 
So you can find me at ESB Games 

1849
01:41:48,810 --> 01:41:51,690
and. 
Everything. 

1850
01:41:52,570 --> 01:41:54,010
On. 
The site formerly known as 

1851
01:41:54,010 --> 01:41:57,930
Twitter I. 
Guess, yeah, but it's ESB, Games

1852
01:41:58,130 --> 01:42:00,290
and again, that site. 
Could fall apart at any minute, 

1853
01:42:00,290 --> 01:42:02,460
so who fucking knows? 
Any minute. 

1854
01:42:02,740 --> 01:42:05,260
Any fucking minute. 
Otherwise, you can probably find

1855
01:42:05,260 --> 01:42:09,420
me at chinks.tv. 
Writing about Ball just gets me 

1856
01:42:09,420 --> 01:42:12,180
for the next month. 
I'm also everywhere else on the 

1857
01:42:12,180 --> 01:42:14,020
Internet. 
Times I'll show up on Derek's 

1858
01:42:14,020 --> 01:42:16,140
other show. 
Sometimes I'll just be there 

1859
01:42:16,140 --> 01:42:19,540
when you don't expect it. 
Folks. 

1860
01:42:19,580 --> 01:42:22,660
If you've enjoyed this episode 
of Casa Bravo, please consider 

1861
01:42:22,660 --> 01:42:25,180
rating and reviewing us on your 
podcast app of choice, and 

1862
01:42:25,180 --> 01:42:27,580
recommend the show to your 
friends and cohorts to help us 

1863
01:42:27,580 --> 01:42:29,700
beat the whims of the almighty 
algorithms. 

1864
01:42:30,450 --> 01:42:34,090
I have given up trying to 
promote the show via social 

1865
01:42:34,090 --> 01:42:37,610
media. 
It's simply not worth fighting 

1866
01:42:37,610 --> 01:42:41,090
the current version of the bird 
site to get click through 

1867
01:42:41,090 --> 01:42:42,570
traffic. 
So. 

1868
01:42:43,850 --> 01:42:46,490
What exactly there's? 
No birds anymore, so it's as 

1869
01:42:46,490 --> 01:42:52,370
dead as well. 
Damn, that was not a thing I 

1870
01:42:52,370 --> 01:42:55,290
expected to say. 
That's all we've got this week. 

1871
01:42:55,610 --> 01:42:58,330
We'll see you next whenever and 
take care of everyone. 

1872
01:43:00,130 --> 01:43:03,050
