Works for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Jet Jaguar is enough but if we get Megalon I'm gonna shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Well, it's definitely better than the same diet of Monster X/Destroy All Monsters/MechaG/Terror of MechaG/sometimes Megalon that they've been doing for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 *BUMP* For those with Alamo Drafthouse theaters... Special 4k Restoration screenings of 1954's Gojira on 11/3. Plus throughout the month, they'll be showing other rarities like Godzilla vs. Hedorah 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Godzilla movies are on all week on Comet's morning movie blocks. Godzilla vs. Megalon is on right now. I think I hate the kid sidekick in this movie more than Rippa hates the crippled kid in Rumble In The Bronx. The actor that played that kid, Hiroyuki Kawase, is probably as old as I am now. When you're a kid, you don't notice things like the movie producers splicing the city destruction footage from Ghidorah, The Three Headed Monster into this movie in order to cut costs. At least we got Jet Jaguar added to the canon. Edited January 26, 2022 by J.T. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Obviously the main hero dude in Terror of Mechagodzilla did not take any of our operations security classes since he just causally starts talking about the top secret supersonic wave beam project to his girlfriend where it is overheard by the evil space aliens.

Curt McGirt Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Comet is gonna be airing Godzilla movies every morning for Hella Godzilla Week next week, or maybe it already started because they have. Megalon was just on again and I was reminded that John Belushi did what I thought was an intro for it when it debuted on NBC, but the real deal was he did interview segments with "Baba Wawa" (Gilda Radner's Barbara Walters character) from SNL in between the movie and commercials: https://www.facebook.com/berniejourney/videos/babawawa-johnbelushi-godzilla-snl/477402403045361/ Also I will have no badmouthing Megalon no matter how annoying you think the kid is, dammit! That was my first Godzilla and it still rules. There's judo throws, gorilla press slams, flying dropkicks... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hella Godzilla has been on all week. That kid in Godzilla vs Megalon still annoys the shit out of me, but he did fly a model fighter jet directly into the face of that evil Seatopian when he and Inventor Goro went to their house to take back control of Jet Jaguar. That was pretty badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the kid from All Out Monster Attack? I cannot hate on Ichiro. I was a latchkey kid myself when my dad worked graveyard and my mom worked days. I sympathized with Ichiro. I saw a lot of myself in him when I was that age, especially Ichiro having to be his own best friend. I think All Out Monster Attack gets a bad rap. It's pretty much reviled as the worst Godzilla movie ever made, but it is more of a scathing criticism of Japanese society of the time (kids left to raise themselves because their parents are overworked, etc.) and a handbook on how to stand up to bullies than it is a kaiju movie.

Curt McGirt Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I'm sorry, I meant Godzilla's Revenge. I guess I think of it as Son of Godzilla because Minilla is the ostensible hero. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) Watched Godzilla vs. Megalon today on Mission, the sci-fi channel native on the WatchFree+ line up native on Vizio smart televisions. It came on right after Space: 1999. Either I must've been blind as a kid or the US did not get the Japanese version of the movie when it came to the states. How did I as a prepubescent youth not notice the American nudie magazine pics taped to the back of the cab of the truck that the bad guys hired to take the container holding Goro and Rokuro to Seatopia?

Definitely the latter. The U.S. cut is pretty significantly butchered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I JUST noticed those when it was on Comet the other day. How Comet missed them is beyond me, because they even blur out blood in movies. I must've only got the US cut too; it was one of the first movies I ever owned because my dad bought it on VHS from Walmart along with Night of the Living Dead and a broken copy of The Phantom of the Opera. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
