Son of Godzilla

It is Manila.

Yeah, Manila, he was introduced in Son of Godzilla.

And I do remember that movie.

He blew little smoke O-rings.

So I'll give you another shot at it.

Son of Godzilla.

Son of Godzilla is not.

You

guys aren't thinking 80s movies.

Never.

Anyway, why don't you tell everybody, what were you watching downstairs? The last time I saw you, you were watching Son of Godzilla.

I still watch Son of Godzilla.

Then the Angels in the Outfield was on, and me and Mimi watched that.

Then she put a channel on, and the cartoons were on, and we watched that.

It's not the record, I think.

That still belongs to Son of Godzilla, but this is still the first, like, five-ish minutes, so.

Oh my god, it's Godzilla! But it's not, because we can't, because the copy's right.

But still, we should run like it's Godzilla!

But yeah, I really loved the old ones where they, like, they, they kind of look cheesy.

There was one that was, like, Son of Godzilla, where there's, like, a baby one, and I was just, I really wanted, I was really rooting for them both.

I'm like, "I don't want, don't wanna kill them.

They're a family.

that's true it never gets to Godzilla the series levels

yeah he's he's consequential here it yeah I don't know I like like like it is total filler like the overall plot of the series is not advanced but it's kind of I kind of enjoy just getting like a low stakes story that Godzilla is a part of it kind of reminds me of like the Fukuda movies like Son of Godzilla and like Eberra Just these little self-contained tales of Godzilla showing up someplace.

It's just, yeah, it's nice.

Yeah, I mean, it's definitely focused on human drama, and that does afford us some great artwork of scale in this one.

I really like at the end of issue 15 when Godzilla approaches like the ranch and destroys it.

I just really like these rare moments where you have Godzilla in front of like houses or like some kind of like like encampment like.

in son of godzilla whenever he he shows up on the beach and he walks through their whole kind of like you know thing they got going on and destroys all the little buildings that are there like all their facilities and labs and stuff i don't know why it's just cool seeing him crush structures that are like up to like his knee you know like stuff like that is a lot a lot of fun to me i

like that too

so they just went ahead and did it anyways, and it's great.

And then the, the only other one that I watched of the Godzilla movies was Son of Godzilla.

Oh.

So, so Godzilla has a son in this movie, if you could tell by the title.

... to the giant radioactive praying mantises?

Yeah, he was like, "Oh, I can't make it.

Um, just watch Go- Son of Godzilla." [laughs]

You'll understand.

blow.

Yeah, but a few weeks ago, though, one of the other shows was Son of Godzilla, and then also...

True.

It was a weird combination of stuff that wasn't going to do very well.

But the Showa era was the one that caught me off guard.

Because this is the one where you've got like Son of Godzilla and stuff like that, where you've got the little one.

And do you remember that we were watching the one with the little latchkey kid? Oh, fuck.

What was the name of that one the last day? And it was so fucking cute and nice.
