Godzilla: The Planet Eater (2018)

We've reached the end of the divisive anime trilogy with the even more divisive and maddening final entry -- a pure cosmic horror film where an extradimensional noncorporeal Ghidorah slaughters nearly everyone and gives Godzilla an hour-long hug. We talk about the Lovecraftian inspiration, this trilogy's horrendous treatment of women, the equally horrendous treatment of its human hero and the harmful message he leaves us with, and the ultimately squandered potential of these deeply mean-spirited movies.Please note that there is a frank discussion of suicide and other dark topics at various points in this episode.Cover art by: Doug!Part of⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Theme song:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠"BIO WARS - Synth Cover" by Kweer Kaiju⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sources include: Godzilla: The First 70 Years by Steve Ryfle and Ed GodziszewskiWikizilla⁠Gigazine Interview with the creative team
