Godzillavangelists

Well, this is it. Goodbye- at least for now! It's another properly super-sized episode to send off the series as-is, with some of our favorite clips, guests, and behind-the-scenes stories popping up. It all concludes in a big gooey reminiscence on how life and Godzilla have changed since we started the show, and how we all feel about the big G now. You might call this the lab results to the Godzillavangelists hypothesis! And of course… no upcoming episode. But we'd still love to hear from you anytime, and keep spreading the word of Godzilla!

Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla is like the high school science crash course of Godzilla movies. It's got magnets, apemen, robots, and weird pipes that short out circuits when they're taken apart.

Godzilla's woefully cheap 70s days hit a new high (or low) with the infamous Godzilla vs. Gigan!

It's time. We step up to the plate with one of the most divisive and scorned Godzilla movies: Godzilla's Revenge AKA All Monsters Attack. Is it a creative exercise for a director, a wonderful children's film, or a cheapo movie full of holes? Or...all three? Joining us again is Mackenzie Marlowe, who has plenty of expertise working with hated Godzilla movies. Nothing goes overlooked, from preferred Minya voices to the time-worn stereotypes of kids' movies.  Next, keep your eyes out for our Godzilla vs. Gigan episode! It's one of the cheapest series entries but also a very beloved one.

It's here at last! The Godzillavangelists finally get to see Godzilla vs. Kong, and they sure do have a lot to say. They've got some strong opinions about this rematch for the ages, including whether big monke can win when he's got the big stick in his hands.

It's another King Kong double whammy here at Godzillavangelists! This time Kat Belinfante joins us to deal with the much maligned 1976 version of King Kong, as well as the very recent entry that introduced the big ape to the Legendary Monsterverse. From the frustrating awfulness of the name "Dwan" to debating whether studio execs would let John C. Reilly headline a movie, there's plenty to discuss. Plus, witness the perfection of the Godzillavangelists' first "straight flush" of ratings. We're very excited to cover the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong! Look out for the episode less than a week after the movie's US debut.  Godzillavangelists is a satirical, critical work not affiliated or endorsed by Toho, Legendary Pictures, or anyone behind the Godzilla series.

The Jedivangelists discussion gets surprisingly deep and film-geeky as we talk about Return of the Jedi and the Original Trilogy as a whole. There's deeper issues here than Ewoks, folks. Look forward to our discussion of more King Kong movies this month, and our upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong episode!

We're back, with a double feature to boot! The gang is talking about the original 1933 King Kong, as well as Toho's wacky King Kong Escapes.  The focus is on the big ape rather than the Big G for a couple months, but worry not. We've got the perfect blend of good old-fashioned moviemaking, bad dubbing, badly-behaved American actors, and snapping dinosaur jaws in half.  More King Kong movies are coming, leading up to the long-awaited premiere of Kong vs. Godzilla!

With more than 3 years of experience talking about giant monsters, invading aliens, and ridiculous plot holes, the Godzillavangelists are taking things back to basics. Fan favorite Destroy All Monsters is at the center of the conversation, and there's no special guests to get in the way of a nice evening. Or are there? More Godzillavangelists to come soon, including a Jedivangelists on Return of the Jedi.  Godzillavangelists is a satirical, critical work not affiliated or endorsed by Toho, Legendary Pictures, or anyone behind the Godzilla series.

It's a classic 60s throwback double feature as the Godzillavangelists go into overtime. This time they talk about Godzilla vs. Monster Zero (AKA Invasion of Astro-Monster) and Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster (AKA Ebirah, Horror of the Deep). It's title overload over here. Superfan Todd G. Levin is back to talk monsters, and boy is there a lot to chew on. One minute the inventor of a supersonic r*pe whistle is falling through a trapdoor, the next, a big shrimp is horrifically spearing innocent villagers. How will the Godzillavangelists survive? We have a special third anniversary show coming up, focused on that fan favorite Destroy All Monsters!

The Jedivangelists take time to enjoy that holy grail of Star Wars- The Empire Strikes Back! It's all one big love fest until we make fun of Threepio and hurt Sam's feelings. We also talk way too long about the beloved tabletop game Star Wars: Epic Duels. A long-lost episode should finally be released around the end of the month! Our Return of the Jedi minisode shouldn't be far behind either.
