A sample from our newly released Patreon episode on Ishiro Honda's original 1954 film "Godzilla"…
I will say anytime Godzilla turns into, like, a little puppet, like, which you, which you see in this film, uh, Godzilla Raids Again, not a very good movie, but I, I do love the scenes of, like, the little, little puppet ass.
Um, I, I have a special place in my heart for kind of fucked up looking puppet Godzilla, I must say.
But just as a, as a general idea, I love Godzilla in both his, like, scary nuclear metaphor incarnation, the, like, goofier kind of kids hero incarnation.
Then when you get, like, further into the '90s and it, it goes back closer to Honda's original vision.
