The Eras Tour: Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla
from The CineMEH Podcast Hosted by Josh Rigdon and Ryan Cipriani
The answer ALEX TREBEK (rest his soul, saints preserve us) gave was "A hybrid film combining elements of James Bond spy movies, fifties atomic invasion cinema, and an extended musical break." The question was... What is "Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla"? In the second instalment of our Godzilla Eras Tour (no relation to the Taylor Swift tour, this refers to the Godzilla eras and how they, you know what, just go listen to the first episode we explain it there), we're taking on the beast made of space titanium, invented by aliens but once broken by humans can only be fixed by a human who is an expert in alien technology (deep breath) MECHAGODZILLA! Also, technically, humans don't break Mechagodzilla, it's either Anguruis or Godzilla, but podcast notes guy can't remember because this movie is so weird it all starts to run together in sort of a bizarre Godzilla goop. Join Josh and Ryan as they break down the absolutely baffling musical choices, the ONE clever thing the movie does before ninety minutes of questionable decisions, and what the best methods for slowly steaming a person to death is (this is relavent to the movie, the aliens have really inefficient ways of dispatching their enemies). Join us for: GODZILLA VS MECHAGODZILLA! Released 1974, starring Masaaki Daimon, Kazuya Aoyama, Reiko Tajima, and Akihiko Hirata
