Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II (1993)

Come for the robot dinosaur, stay for the cutest bestest baby boy! In what was originally conceived as the finale of the Heisei era, big names Mechagodzilla, Rodan, and even a new Baby Godzilla arrive for this nature vs. technology story, where humans and the military are unambiguously the bad guys and the monsters are just seeking their adopted family. We talk about this era's odd use of Miki (and how this film makes an effort to fix it), eerie psychic songs, Mechagodzilla as corporate pride, all the smoke, sparks, and spotlights, and Derek's all-time favorite Godzilla character.Cover Art by: Radical GatorPart of⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cover Art Gallery⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠DiscordEmail: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Theme song:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠"BIO WARS - Synth Cover" by Kweer Kaiju⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sources include: A Critical History and Filmography of Toho's Godzilla Series by David KalatGodzilla FAQ: All That’s Left to Know About the King of the Monsters by Brian SolomonShelley Sweeny interview with Vantage PointWikizilla
