Crank up the surf rock for a day at the beach and a nice lobster dinner, because we're talking the time Godzilla fought a giant crustacean! This low-key island adventure features a major changing of the guard behind-the-scenes, resulting in a fun and unique James Bond-inspired story where a ragtag group of misfits find themselves working with sleepy kaiju to stop a terrorist organization. We talk about Mothra as a honk-shoo queen and Godzilla as a tired dad, budget cuts, how the end of the studio system resulted in Jun Fukuda becoming the new Godzilla guy (whether he liked it or not), and more!

Al and Spencer talk about the Dave the Diver Godzilla DLC Timings 00:00:00: Theme Tune 00:00:30: Intro 00:02:13: What Have We Been Up To 00:17:01: Dave The Diver 00:25:52: Godzilla DLC 00:47:48: Outro Links Dave the Diver Godzilla DLC Contact Al on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheScotBot Al on Mastodon: https://mastodon.scot/@TheScotBot Email Us: https://harvestseason.club/contact/ Transcript (0:00:32) Al: Hello Divers, and welcome to another episode of The Harvest Season. (0:00:37) Al: Maybe I should call it the diving season again. (0:00:39) Al: My name is Al. (0:00:42) Spencer: And my name is Spencer. (0:00:43) Al: And we are here today to talk about cottage core games, kind of. (0:00:51) Al: Transcripts are available on the show notes and on the website, as always. (0:00:55) Al: Today, I have the one and only Spencer on to talk about the Dave the Diver Godzilla (0:01:02) Spencer: Thank you for having me. (0:01:02) Al: from Spencer. (0:01:04) Al: How are you doing today? (0:01:04) Spencer: Good. (0:01:05) Spencer: How are you? (0:01:08) Al: I am a little bit tired. (0:01:10) Al: We have that fun thing where Spencer and I are so far apart in time and both have (0:01:14) Al: kids that the only time we can record is 6 a.m. my time. (0:01:19) Al: And was it 10 p.m. your time? (0:01:21) Spencer: yeah it’s approaching 10 right now and like you mentioned kids and not wanting to go to sleep (0:01:28) Spencer: and it’s it’s been rough (0:01:30) Al: Yeah, yeah, well them not wanting to- (0:01:32) Al: good to sleep. You wanting to go to sleep. So yeah, we’re both tired, but for different (0:01:38) Al: reasons. Well, one of the same reasons, which is kids, and the other a different reason, (0:01:43) Al: which is because we’ve got different ends of the day. Aren’t time zones fun? (0:01:50) Al: Cool. So as this is Dave the Diver month, we will obviously have no news. So listeners, (0:01:57) Al: you can tell me after you’ve listened to all these, if this was too many episodes about one game, (0:02:02) Al: we’ll see, but it will be too late. So yeah, so no news. But before we talk about the Dave (0:02:05) Spencer: Just gotta suck it up. (0:02:11) Al: the Diver Godzilla DLC, Spencer, what have you been up to? (0:02:16) Spencer: Uh, not much. I mean, at the time of this recording, we’re currently potty training our child, so I’m sure you have older children than we do, so I’m sure you know all about the fun that comes with that. (0:02:22) Al: Oh, perfect. Yep. The end point of that is fantastic. The fact that you can just say (0:02:33) Al: to your kid, “Yeah, we’ll go to the toilet,” and then they go and do it, and then they’re (0:02:36) Al: done, and they come back, and you’re like, “Fantastic. I don’t need to be involved in (0:02:40) Al: that process anymore. I love it.” (0:02:42) Spencer: Yeah, but see the tough thing is, and this is part of what we’re dealing with right now, (0:02:46) Spencer: is now they learn in the middle of the night when all the lights are off. (0:02:50) Spencer: If they yell, “I gotta go potty,” then that’s in a yep, so. (0:02:52) Al: Yeah, well you get to a point where they finally learn that they can do everything themselves (0:03:00) Al: and they don’t even need you. So that’s what we’ve got with our youngest finally, where (0:03:06) Al: he just goes to the toilet in the middle of the night and we don’t have to care about (0:03:08) Spencer: Ah. The dream. (0:03:10) Al: it. It’s fantastic. If we’re still awake, he will talk to us. And I’m like, “Craig, (0:03:14) Al: you don’t need to talk to us. Just go to the toilet and go back to bed.” For a long time, (0:03:19) Al: He used it as an excuse to be out of his room and talking to us. (0:03:22) Al: Because he loves people, he loves talking, but I think we’ve finally got there where (0:03:29) Al: he will now come out of his room, go to the toilet and go back to his room without talking (0:03:35) Spencer: Yeah, so yeah, pretty much that and then just playing a few games (0:03:40) Spencer: Metroid Prime remaster, I know there’s the news about Metroid Prime 4 kind of got like sucked into it a little bit (0:03:47) Spencer: I’ve already played Prime back on GameCube. So this kind of just revisiting for me (0:03:52) Spencer: Super Monkey Ball been playing. This has actually been a lot of games (0:03:55) Spencer: I’ve been playing like in the two years that we’ve had our daughter now (0:04:00) Spencer: Probably the most I’ve been playing games in my free time (0:04:05) Spencer: I’ve been playing Dave the Diver and stuff. So, Stellar Blade I put way too much time into Stellar Blade lately (0:04:10) Spencer: so that game has been really fun stuff and (0:04:14) Spencer: Even a mobile game that I’ve been playing has a Dave the Diver collaboration going on right now at the time of this recording (0:04:20) Spencer: which is (0:04:20) Al: Yeah, so were you playing this game before the collab was announced? (0:04:24) Spencer: Yes, I was and the game will remain unnamed for different reasons (0:04:31) Spencer: but (0:04:32) Spencer: It does have a day the diver collab going on (0:04:35) Spencer: and it was very interesting bouncing back and forth between the actual game and the collab (0:04:41) Spencer: because they did a pretty good job, in my opinion, of translating it to mobile game. (0:04:50) Al: Yeah, it’s interesting because Kelly shared this news with me, because we were talking about the (0:04:56) Al: Dave the Diver stuff. They’ve played Dave the Diver quite a bit, and they were like, “Oh, (0:05:00) Al: there’s a new DLC,” and I’m like, “Oh, interesting.” And I was like, “No, this isn’t a DLC. This is (0:05:07) Al: inside the Nikkei game.” And watching the trailer, it does seem to just be the game (0:05:14) Al: inside Nikkei, like it’s just Dave the Diver inside Nikkei. (0:05:18) Spencer: Yeah, it is very much just day of the day. (0:05:19) Spencer: Well, it’s just the fishing part, (0:05:22) Spencer: which I know I’m sure we’ll get into when we talk more (0:05:24) Spencer: about the game itself. (0:05:25) Spencer: But it’s just the fishing part, just the serving sushi part. (0:05:32) Al: Aha (0:05:33) Spencer: I think they reduce the map size quite a bit. (0:05:37) Spencer: But it works fairly well, actually, especially (0:05:39) Spencer: because it’s like smartphone touch controls. (0:05:42) Spencer: So you kind of just drag your aimer, so to speak. (0:05:48) Spencer: When you’re shooting and stuff. (0:05:51) Spencer: So yeah, it’s actually a pretty good translation of the game, (0:05:54) Spencer: to be honest, or at least for a mobile device. (0:05:56) Al: I am not going to talk about what I’ve been playing because, as listeners know, this is (0:06:01) Al: like a month. It’s about a month. This is coming out after we record it. So I’m going (0:06:08) Al: to talk about a TV show that I have almost finished that, as of recording, only came (0:06:12) Al: out less than a week ago, and that is the Exploding Kittens Netflix show. Have you seen (0:06:18) Al: any of this, Spencer? (0:06:20) Spencer: I have not. (0:06:21) Al: Have you played Exploding Kittens, the game? (0:06:23) Spencer: I’ve seen it, but I’ve not played it myself. (0:06:28) Al: So, I mean, this is all just hooks on hooks of things, right? (0:06:33) Al: So Exploring Kittens is a card game (0:06:35) Al: that is based on a tiny little cartoon (0:06:39) Al: that the Oatmeal guy did once. (0:06:43) Al: And he made a card game based on this, which is, (0:06:46) Al: I mean, it’s a fair, I enjoy the card game. (0:06:48) Al: It’s very fun, but it’s only very tangentially related (0:06:53) Al: to anything to do with the Oatmeal. (0:06:55) Al: And it’s more just like, you know, the Oatmeal’s humor, (0:06:58) Al: a card game. (0:07:00) Al: And then, tangentially related to that, (0:07:03) Al: he also now has made a show on Netflix, (0:07:07) Al: which of course only Netflix would make (0:07:09) Al: on Exploring Kittens show, right? (0:07:11) Al: And I personally think it’s very much the Oatmeal’s humor (0:07:14) Al: just in a TV show. (0:07:17) Al: I mean, it’s very stupid, right? (0:07:19) Al: It’s not highbrow humor, it is very, very stupid, (0:07:22) Al: but I personally am enjoying it. (0:07:24) Al: The premise is that God is turned into a cat. (0:07:28) Al: He turned down to Earth and turned into a cat (0:07:30) Al: to learn to be better. (0:07:35) Al: And also the devil is sent up to Earth to be a cat as well, (0:07:39) Al: to learn to be more evil. (0:07:41) Al: And that is kind of the whole premise around it. (0:07:46) Al: And I won’t go into the details of it, obviously, (0:07:48) Al: ‘cause it’s spoilers, but personally, (0:07:50) Al: I’ve been enjoying it. (0:07:51) Al: It’s very stupid humor. (0:07:52) Al: So if you don’t like, I’m not stupid, (0:07:55) Al: that’s not the right word, (0:07:56) Al: ‘cause there’s lots of different types of, (0:07:59) Al: style and silly. (0:08:01) Al: So if you don’t like that sort of humor, (0:08:02) Al: you definitely won’t get it, won’t enjoy it. (0:08:05) Al: And that’s fine, (0:08:06) Al: but I have personally been enjoying it a lot. (0:08:10) Spencer: off to look into it. Yeah, we haven’t been watching too much stuff on TV or Netflix or anything. I’m (0:08:15) Spencer: trying to think of the last thing we watched, but yeah, I can’t think of anything that comes off (0:08:20) Spencer: to the top of my head, so. (0:08:22) Al: I can’t stop watching stuff. I also watched, I talked in the last episode I was on as listeners (0:08:31) Al: are listening about the Gotham Knights, which was that one off season CW show about Batman (0:08:44) Al: being murdered and it’s not good, right? I’m not going to say it’s good, but it is interesting. (0:08:52) Al: I think it was worth watching, but I think it’s ties to DC make it worse than if it didn’t do (0:09:00) Al: that because it feels the need to hook into things that it definitely didn’t need to do. (0:09:08) Spencer: Interesting. I mean, not good, but entertaining is kind of like my genre of TV and movies, so… (0:09:16) Al: It’s very much a DC CW show. So if you’ve watched any of them, it’s very much in the same. (0:09:22) Al: So it’s less funny, right? Like Flash and Supergirl. And I mean, I guess not Arrow. Arrow (0:09:29) Al: wasn’t ever really funny, but certainly those ones have been tried to at least be some level (0:09:33) Al: of funny. This is probably, I guess more like Arrow in terms of its seriousness. But I always (0:09:42) Al: liked in the crossovers between those shows, this juxtaposition between the seriousness of Arrow (0:09:48) Al: and the humour of the other characters. This obviously doesn’t… (0:09:52) Al: have any crossover between them, and I have no idea if it’s meant to be on the same Earth as (0:09:56) Al: any of them. They got a bit confused at the end as to how many different Earths they actually had, (0:09:58) Spencer: OK, so they don’t establish this as part of the, what did they call it, the arrow verse? (0:10:04) Al: but… No, they don’t. Technically, there were actually multiple universes within the Arrowverse (0:10:12) Al: because Supergirl was on a separate one until Crisis on Infinite Earths, and then it was on (0:10:20) Al: on the same one. (0:10:22) Al: But they also still had multiple others because like there was Stargirl, (0:10:27) Al: which was never technically in the Arrowverse, but was tangentially related. (0:10:32) Al: And After Crisis was shown to be on a different Earth still. (0:10:36) Al: And there was also the Superman and Lois (0:10:39) Al: show, which was shown to be on the same Earth as the rest of the Arrowverse was (0:10:47) Al: crisis, but then they decided that the new what the series (0:10:53) Al: different. And therefore there were a few things like Lex Luthor was just a (0:10:57) Al: different person. And so it was obviously on a different Earth, but they never (0:11:00) Al: actually explicitly said that. And they had explicitly said it was on the same (0:11:03) Al: one. So you’re like, “Oh, so is this now a different Superman and Lois we’re (0:11:07) Al: following on a different Earth that just happened to look the same?” It was all (0:11:11) Al: very weird and confusing because they also, they went from, I mean, I do love (0:11:17) Al: the silliness of these things, right? So after crisis, they went from having (0:11:22) Al: one kid to having twins. And you’re just like, “Okay, fine. Sure. I’ll let that (0:11:29) Al: happen. It’s crisis. Weird things happen in crisis.” But then there were like this (0:11:33) Al: exact version of this family also happens to be in another universe as (0:11:38) Al: well, which is almost identical, but not quite very weird. Yeah, exactly. And I (0:11:42) Spencer: Just like one little little difference to make the plot devices work now (0:11:47) Al: don’t even I guess maybe it was just that because oh who was who was the what’s the (0:11:52) Al: guy that played Lex Luthor in the in their verse can you remember did you ever watch (0:11:56) Al: any of them yeah I don’t think yeah he was yeah Lex was only in Supergirl I think John (0:11:57) Spencer: I did not I did watch arrow through quite a few and then yeah and then I was (0:12:08) Al: Cryer that’s his name you know who I mean he’s a two and a half men guy what else is (0:12:12) Spencer: Oh, okay, well, I don’t think I ever watched Two and a Half Men, so… (0:12:18) Al: the end. You probably recognize him. (0:12:22) Al: He’s pretty famous, but yeah. Apparently he was in Superman 4 as well. I missed that. (0:12:31) Al: Who was he in Superman 4? (0:12:32) Al: Lenny Luther. Who’s Lenny Luther? Is that Lex’s son? Oh my word. Oh my. That is so dated. (0:12:43) Al: That’s amazing. His hair is fantastic in that. He’s the nephew of Lex Luther. Oh, I do remember (0:12:50) Al: that scene actually, that’s hilarious. (0:12:52) Al: Anyway, yeah, so I’m presuming that John Cryer just didn’t want to be Lex Luthor anymore, (0:12:58) Al: which is fair enough, right? Like when you’re going from, you know, a medium-sized show that (0:13:07) Al: is Supergirl to a smaller show that is Superman and Lois, I see why you wouldn’t want to continue (0:13:15) Al: that rule. It’s not exactly a huge (0:13:18) Spencer: Yeah, not really a jump in pay, so to speak. (0:13:23) Al: Exactly. And you can’t even just go, “Oh well, after Crisis they had a different Lex” because (0:13:28) Al: they showed in the show that after Crisis they had the same Lex Luthor, because that was a huge (0:13:34) Al: part of the plot point with him anyway. Not important. Yeah, and I’m just about to start (0:13:42) Al: watching the second series of Star Trek Prodigy. Have you seen? (0:13:46) Spencer: I have not. I have very… I say this. I have very little background knowledge of Star Trek except for I did watch a couple seasons of the original at one point. (0:13:57) Al: All right, fair enough, fair enough. Prodigy is, I think, best for two people. One is, obviously, (0:14:05) Al: kids is very good for them, but I think it’s also very good for, you know, Star Trek nerds who (0:14:11) Al: particularly like, what’s her name? Oh, my word, why am I so bad with names? Janeway, Captain Janeway (0:14:20) Al: from Voyager, because there’s tie-ins to Voyager and it’s… (0:14:27) Al: It’s good fun. It definitely is a kids show, and I wouldn’t say it’s as good at being (0:14:33) Al: a kids and an adult show as, say, Pixar films, but I think it does a good job of being interesting (0:14:41) Al: for adults as well. It’s not… It’s like, have you ever seen the new Spidey and His Amazing Friend (0:14:48) Al: show? Like, that is a kids show, and it’s like, you’re not really going to be interested in it, (0:14:48) Spencer: Oh, that’s constantly playing in our house. (0:14:57) Al: other than just to say that you’ve watched it, right? Like, it doesn’t really do anything (0:15:02) Al: for adults. Same with the… Because you watched the Young Jedi Adventures as well, didn’t you? (0:15:03) Spencer: Yeah, we have, and yeah, again, that one’s very like, you know, teaching kids lessons (0:15:14) Al: yet. They’re cute and they’re fun, but they don’t give anything to adults. And that’s fine, (0:15:14) Spencer: of, you know. (0:15:20) Al: I don’t think everything should have to be good for adults as well. And I have watched through (0:15:24) Al: both of them because I want to have watched them. Not because I’m particularly enjoying them, (0:15:30) Al: I want to have watched them and to have said that I have watched them. Whereas Star Trek Prodigy, (0:15:35) Al: I’m actively enjoying, the story is interesting, and there’s a few references to other Star Trek (0:15:41) Al: stuff that isn’t too heavy-handed. (0:15:44) Al: But it still feels fun. (0:15:46) Al: And so I think that if you don’t have kids and you’re not like, (0:15:49) Al: “I need to watch everything,” it’s definitely worth a watch. (0:15:52) Al: Whereas, you know, the two that we’ve mentioned, if you’re not (0:15:55) Al: obsessive about watching everything, don’t bother. (0:15:58) Spencer: Yeah, I mean that definitely it yeah, if you don’t have kids, please don’t watch the start Star Wars the Jedi my goodness (0:16:05) Al: unless you are obsessive over it. I think there’s one or two vaguely interesting things. (0:16:09) Spencer: Yeah (0:16:15) Al: I find there was an episode where they find their kyber crystals, which was vaguely interesting, (0:16:26) Al: but there’s maybe one other episode that you would… Other than that, it’s the exact same (0:16:30) Al: episode just with different things. It’s like they don’t listen to one of the teachers. (0:16:35) Al: Exactly what the teacher told them not to do or don’t do what they told them to do. (0:16:39) Al: Something goes wrong. They have to solve it. And then they say sorry, but they’ve learned (0:16:43) Al: to lesson. That’s it. That’s every episode in that scene series. (0:16:46) Spencer: Yeah, it follows a pretty similar format for each. (0:16:50) Spencer: It’s definitely not meant for adults. (0:16:53) Al: All right, cool. Well, that’s what we’ve been up to. Definitely didn’t drag that out because (0:17:01) Al: we have no news. We’re now going to talk about the Dave the Diver Godzilla DLC. Before we (0:17:09) Al: get into the specifics of the DLC, I wanted to, I meant to share the episode with you (0:17:13) Al: so you could hear what me and Kevin talked about, but I’m just wondering what your thoughts (0:17:16) Al: about the game in general are before we talk about it. (0:17:19) Spencer: Oh no, that’s fine. Yeah, so… (0:17:21) Spencer: I don’t know… (0:17:23) Spencer: Hmm… (0:17:24) Spencer: Feel bad coming on your podcast and then saying this. (0:17:27) Spencer: I don’t know if I’d qualify this as a farming game. (0:17:31) Spencer: It has farming. Let’s be very clear. (0:17:31) Al: Oh, it’s not. It’s not. It’s absolutely not. I accept that. Yeah. (0:17:34) Spencer: This has farming. (0:17:36) Spencer: I don’t even know if I’d qualify this as a fishing game, though, to be honest. (0:17:39) Spencer: And hear me out. (0:17:40) Al: No, no, I agree. (0:17:41) Spencer: This game, in my opinion, is a parody (0:17:45) Spencer: of every possible game they could shove into (0:17:49) Spencer: out of whatever you want to call it. (0:17:51) Spencer: Like, if you can think of a style of game, (0:17:54) Spencer: this game probably has some kind of small section (0:17:57) Spencer: in it that parodies that, right? (0:18:00) Spencer: You start out fishing. (0:18:00) Al: Interesting I hadn’t I hadn’t thought of it as parodying them but that does make (0:18:02) Spencer: And there’s the fishing thing. (0:18:07) Al: things a bit that does make things a little bit more sense. (0:18:10) Spencer: right you have your fishing you have your your little serving minigame ask game you even you (0:18:18) Spencer: even have a stealth metal gear solid part right there’s a part where i’m like wait why am I like (0:18:24) Spencer: running around this little secret base and having to hide behind boxes and stuff you have (0:18:30) Al: That secret base was so stupid, like the rolling, you walk up to boxes then you roll over the (0:18:32) Spencer: I was (0:18:37) Al: boxes. (0:18:38) Spencer: you hide in the fridge (0:18:39) Al: Yeah, OK. (0:18:41) Spencer: And then there was a rhythm part, like that part came up, and I was like, (0:18:45) Spencer: why is there a rhythm game in the middle of this game? (0:18:49) Al: Yeah, that’s a really interesting… I don’t know why I didn’t put this together, but that (0:18:54) Al: explains why there are an infinite number of minigames in this game. Because they’re (0:19:00) Al: trying to parody everything. That makes so much sense. I had not thought about that. (0:19:05) Spencer: So yeah, that’s kind of that’s kind of my thoughts on it. I enjoyed playing the core game very much some of the some of the different (0:19:13) Spencer: mini games (0:19:14) Spencer: Were so so but you really only played them maybe like once or twice and then you kind of like move on (0:19:20) Spencer: So it’s not that big of an issue in my opinion (0:19:22) Spencer: Um, I really enjoyed the fishing the fishing parts fun. The sushi part gets a little hectic at times (0:19:30) Al: the good thing about this issue part is that it doesn’t take very long. (0:19:32) Spencer: That’s true and in all fairness to (0:19:35) Spencer: you I was like refusing to hire staff for a long time and then once I hired (0:19:38) Al: Oh really? Oh no, as soon as I had money, enough money to hire staff, I was hiring staff. (0:19:39) Spencer: yeah like I finally hired someone (0:19:45) Al: I’m like, “I don’t want to be doing all this work.” (0:19:48) Spencer: Well, I hired one person to serve with me, and I think that might be someone that you (0:19:52) Spencer: just have to hire through tutorials. (0:19:55) Spencer: Yeah, and then finally, I hired another person to work in the back kitchen. (0:20:01) Spencer: And then that greatly, I was like, “Oh, okay, wow, this actually helps a ton. (0:20:06) Spencer: I should have done this a long time ago.” (0:20:08) Al: Yeah, no wonder you didn’t have any money. I was like, I have almost all the upgrades (0:20:11) Spencer: Yeah, Alan and I were talking about that, and I’m like, “Why am I always not have any (0:20:14) Spencer: money to buy anything. (0:20:18) Al: and I’m not finished the story yet. And you’re like, I don’t understand how you have money. (0:20:22) Al: I didn’t realise you hadn’t hired staff. I hired every staff member as soon as I could. (0:20:26) Al: So I think you end up with two, is it two of each? Or can you have three? I think you (0:20:30) Spencer: I think you can have… (0:20:31) Al: can end up having three waiters and two extra chefs. So you end up with basically three (0:20:38) Al: each, and plus yourself serving as well. And you can train them up more as well to (0:20:44) Al: make them more efficient. And eventually the servers will learn to do drinks as well, which (0:20:53) Al: is the most annoying thing. (0:20:54) Spencer: Yeah, that’s kind of so I had like at the time the recording I have two servers and I have a (0:21:03) Spencer: Like help in the the kitchen part like a chef I guess (0:21:08) Spencer: And I’ve trained up at least one server to be able to do drinks (0:21:12) Spencer: Which is helpful because like once you have at least two servers (0:21:16) Spencer: Then you yourself are kind of like delegated to just doing drinks if they are (0:21:21) Spencer: needed while the other two run around doing orders. (0:21:25) Al: And also you need to do the Wasabi, um, yeah, no, that’s interesting. (0:21:32) Al: Uh, was there anything you, was there anything in particular you didn’t like? (0:21:33) Spencer: but yeah, that’s it. (0:21:37) Al: Other than maybe some of the many. (0:21:39) Spencer: I don’t know if I’d necessarily say it was like as (0:21:43) Spencer: like an actual gameplay aspect of the game as much as like a lot of the mechanics they kind of just like (0:21:49) Spencer: either throw at you really quickly and expect you to pick up (0:21:53) Spencer: or (0:21:54) Spencer: you’re like (0:21:56) Spencer: like we were talking (0:21:57) Spencer: online about this like I’m already you know you got to get to chapter five to get to the Godzilla DLC. (0:22:03) Spencer: But like in chapter five I’m still like getting game mechanics that are like pertinent to the game not just like random minigames. (0:22:09) Spencer: It’s like okay now you get like this and that and it’s like whoa hold on like (0:22:14) Spencer: This is way late in the game. Why am I still getting new game mechanics? So I that that part kind of threw me off. (0:22:18) Al: Yeah I can see why you would think it was not a good thing I think it’s both a good and a bad (0:22:25) Al: thing I think the good thing about it is you’re not I quite often feel overwhelmed by games when (0:22:30) Al: they tell you everything really early on and yes it’s a little bit weird getting game mechanics so (0:22:36) Al: late on but it also means that you don’t have you don’t end up with that overwhelmed feeling at the (0:22:42) Al: beginning and the tutorial can be really simple but yeah have you (0:22:48) Al: unlocked the chickens yet okay that’s the that is the final main farming thing there are other (0:22:49) Spencer: I have unlocked the chickens. (0:22:55) Al: a few small things but they’re all just to make it more efficient that it’s the last actual thing (0:23:00) Spencer: Okay. (0:23:02) Al: you get in the farming um but yeah yeah it was so ridiculous it’s like I don’t know if we would (0:23:08) Al: have done this had I realized how late on you needed to get to get to the DLC um because the (0:23:15) Al: drage DLC you need to have for now you (0:23:18) Al: need to have unlocked the farm and then yeah the Godzilla one you need to be in chapter (0:23:19) Spencer: Mm-hmm (0:23:24) Al: five which is it is because by the time we got to I was like oh well I may as well finish (0:23:25) Spencer: Which is basically almost the end of the game (0:23:30) Al: the game now so I have finished I finished the main story I haven’t like done a hundred (0:23:31) Spencer: Yeah (0:23:35) Al: percent of everything but I finished the main story now because you’re just like well I (0:23:40) Al: may as well now which I guess is a good thing but yeah I’m glad I gave us as much time as (0:23:46) Al: we did because we’ve had like a month. (0:23:48) Al: That’s not my fault. That’s not my fault. I gave you enough time to play the game. (0:23:48) Spencer: Yeah, something like that. Though, to be honest, I got a little sidetracked with some other games that I was playing, and then I was like, “Oh, it’ll be okay.” (0:23:56) Spencer: “It’ll be okay.” (0:23:58) Spencer: I thought it would be okay, and then when we were like, “Oh, chapter five, whoa, hold on.” (0:23:59) Al: That’s the important thing. I think I took about three weeks to get it finished. So it’s (0:24:09) Al: not a ridiculously long game. Yeah. (0:24:10) Spencer: No, yeah, once I sat down and really put some time into it, it was pretty easy to get to (0:24:18) Al: I’m at a total of about 40 hours. So I wasn’t even playing that super hard over three weeks. (0:24:23) Al: To give you a comparison, when Tears of the Kingdom came out, I spent three weeks playing (0:24:27) Al: that and I put 150 hours into it. So it’s a little bit different in terms of time there. (0:24:31) Spencer: No, I mean, yeah, no, I mean, like I said, I think that this game is, you know, poking (0:24:34) Al: All right, cool. Any other last thoughts on Dave the Diver before the DLC? Because obviously (0:24:41) Al: I just spent a whole episode talking about it. (0:24:48) Spencer: fun at a lot of games, to be honest, like, with all the different minigames, it has kind (0:24:53) Spencer: of just parodying stuff. (0:24:56) Spencer: But it’s all in good fun, so. (0:24:58) Al: Yeah, I think it’s poking fun of them, but in a way that you definitely know it’s like (0:25:03) Al: a love letter to them. It’s like the way you mock your loved ones, right? It’s not the way you mock (0:25:10) Al: someone you don’t like. OK, cool. Well, so we’re going to talk about the Godzilla DLC. Just to (0:25:17) Al: warn, there is so little in this DLC that we will be talking about absolutely everything. (0:25:22) Al: The story is not big and complicated, but we will be talking about the entire story of this thing. (0:25:27) Al: So if you don’t want to (0:25:28) Al: hear that now is when you stop. There won’t be anything else after this. We’re just going (0:25:34) Al: to talk about the DLC and basically just the story and the one mechanic that it adds. (0:25:43) Al: Well, that’s not true. I guess two. One mini game that it adds and one collectibles that it adds, (0:25:50) Al: but we’ll get to that when we get to it. So, yes. I guess to give a quick… (0:25:58) Al: Funny. So you start off and it’s like a stormy night. And then I can’t remember who’s the… (0:26:07) Al: This person isn’t in Godzilla lore, are you? (0:26:11) Spencer: as far as I remember I don’t think so there’s plenty of human characters that (0:26:15) Spencer: I just don’t remember the G for their part of yeah I believe her name is like (0:26:17) Al: Yeah. Well, that’s fair. I think yeah, meet Miki. Yeah. (0:26:21) Spencer: Miku or Miki yeah and she says she’s part of the G force which is like a (0:26:29) Spencer: thing in some movies just like a squad of like you know military people that (0:26:34) Al: Oh, she is. She does exist in other Godzilla stuff, so I just had a quick Google. She’s (0:26:34) Spencer: are tasked with like tracking and fighting Godzilla so (0:26:45) Al: from the Hacey Godzilla series. I don’t know if that’s something. I don’t know what that (0:26:49) Spencer: Okay (0:26:52) Al: is. (0:26:52) Al: Eh… (0:26:53) Spencer: So yeah, so Godzilla is separated into different (0:26:57) Spencer: Yes, would you call eras so to speak so the first era? (0:27:00) Al: So this one started with The Return of Godzilla in 1984. (0:27:03) Spencer: Yeah, so that’s that’s gonna be like the second era so to speak (0:27:07) Spencer: Kind of from yeah that the 80s through the 90s and then it’s so it’s divided up with Showa (0:27:07) Al: Okay. (0:27:13) Spencer: Which is the original Godzilla up to that one and then he’s he say I see (0:27:19) Spencer: If you speak Japanese, please correct us (0:27:23) Al: We’re sorry in advance. (0:27:24) Spencer: Yeah (0:27:26) Spencer: That’s separated (0:27:27) Spencer: like you said the the return of Godzilla in the 80s up through the 90s and then the 90s is (0:27:33) Spencer: the end of the 90s to (0:27:36) Spencer: Somewhere in the 2000s is the millennium series and then more recently we finally have (0:27:43) Spencer: after the millennium like I think it’s designated as the shin series because it starts off with (0:27:49) Spencer: Shin Godzilla, but I could be wrong either way (0:27:52) Al: So, the Godzilla Wiki is saying “Riwa” series, but anyway, doesn’t particularly matter the (0:27:53) Spencer: Bye. (0:27:54) Spencer: Mm-hmm. (0:28:00) Al: names of them. So, yeah, she is, according to the Wiki, she is employed by the Japanese (0:28:05) Al: government and then later G-Force. She uses her powers to communicate with, and in some (0:28:10) Al: instances attempt to control Godzilla. She is the most frequently recurring human character (0:28:15) Al: in the Godzilla series, having appeared in six consecutive films. So, there you go. She (0:28:22) Al: has six different films. Isn’t that interesting? But, I mean, none of that matters to this (0:28:29) Al: DLC, right? I think she does say like she consents Godzilla, so that kind of ties in, (0:28:35) Al: I guess, to her psychic abilities in the films, which is wild, but whatever. It’s a series (0:28:38) Spencer: Which to the uninitiated may seem weird, but there are quite a few things of like psychic abilities and stuff in Godzilla, so (0:28:49) Al: never ends. It never stops. (0:28:52) Al: So yeah, she appears and she’s like, “Oh, I think Godzilla’s here.” (0:28:57) Al: There was another, because one of the things in Dave is there’s like earthquakes, and that’s like, you have to figure out why there’s earthquakes. (0:29:03) Al: But this ties into Godzilla, and like, there’s another earthquake, but this is a different earthquake. You’re like, “Oh, this is different.” (0:29:09) Al: And then Miki comes along and tells you about Godzilla. So you need to go find Godzilla. (0:29:16) Al: You dive down, you find a cave, you like, blow up the entrance to the cave. (0:29:22) Al: And then you’re like, “Oh, look, Godzilla’s just there.” (0:29:24) Al: And I don’t know about you, that was a pretty terrifying moment in a terrifying game full of horrors. (0:29:30) Al: You just go into a cave and you just find Godzilla. (0:29:33) Spencer: Yeah, I mean given the previous parts of this game, I was pretty expecting Godzilla to just like, (0:29:39) Spencer: wake up and be like, “Okay, like a chase scene, like quick swim away.” (0:29:40) Al: Or time to fight! I hope you got a good gun! (0:29:45) Spencer: Yeah. (0:29:47) Spencer: So, oh, did you, now just as a side, did you try shooting Godzilla by chance? (0:29:53) Al: I did not. I was not going to start that fight before it needed to start, if it was going (0:29:54) Spencer: Oh. (0:29:57) Al: to start. (0:29:58) Spencer: Oh, I definitely may have fired off my harpoon once or twice. (0:30:03) Spencer: And Miki interjects and asks if you were firing the harpoon and warns you against it. (0:30:10) Al: I kind of want to see if you actually can initiate a fight or if Nikki will just interrupt (0:30:10) Spencer: And once I got that warning, I was like, “Maybe I don’t continue down this path.” (0:30:25) Al: each time. That would be funny if you’d like Otto died if it just like ate you. So yeah (0:30:34) Al: miki says can you set up a camera I want to keep an eye on him and then you swim away and then (0:30:40) Al: I think it’s like the next day or something. I can’t remember exactly how it happens but (0:30:47) Al: is it Ibira? Is that how? Right so basically a massive lobster kaiju is coming and this is (0:30:49) Spencer: Uh, Ibra, I believe it is. (0:31:01) Al: a problem obviously. This is not ideal. So you then get into this another new game mechanic (0:31:10) Al: which is piloting a submarine through obstacles and kind of like the chase scene that you were (0:31:17) Al: talking about that you thought you were going to get with Godzilla but not with Godzilla with (0:31:22) Al: Ibira and then you have do you I can’t remember you have a little attack scene yourself with (0:31:31) Al: Ebirah? Is that how it works before the main thing? (0:31:32) Spencer: Yeah, so you get chased by any number of spaceship or submarine-style games where you’re just (0:31:43) Spencer: dodging things. (0:31:44) Spencer: I believe it’s an auto-scroll to a certain extent. (0:31:46) Al: Yes, yes it is. (0:31:47) Spencer: You need to at least keep a certain pace. (0:31:50) Spencer: If you fall too far behind, then think you get killed? (0:31:53) Al: Yeah, you do. I died a couple times in that scene. (0:31:54) Spencer: Yeah. (0:31:57) Spencer: And then once you reach the cave… you start off… (0:32:03) Spencer: And once you reach the cave where Godzilla is resting, it turns into a boss battle. (0:32:09) Al: I’m looking at the screenshots I’m remembering now. So yeah, you’ve got a machine gun and (0:32:10) Spencer: Uh, where you’re, yeah. (0:32:15) Al: torpedoes that you use to attack Ebra. The interesting thing is it also has like, instead (0:32:22) Al: of having, so you have the same kind of oxygen mechanic as you do, but it’s like basically (0:32:29) Al: for the submarine health instead of your health, right? And you can repair or you can get Miki (0:32:36) Spencer: Oh my goodness, I was yeah so it felt like there was a little bit of like I don’t know (0:32:37) Al: to repair the sub, but I don’t know about you. (0:32:39) Al: It was very slow. It was basically pointless. (0:32:49) Spencer: if I’d say delay or like moving also felt very funky in this part like you weren’t moving (0:32:56) Spencer: as fast as you wanted to and when you did move you kind of just slid a little bit like (0:33:01) Spencer: you sometimes you go a little too far but then as soon as you start repairing you move (0:33:07) Spencer: like just you might as well just not move if you’re repairing (0:33:10) Al: which would be fine if the repairing actually did anything, but it felt like it was 1% every (0:33:14) Spencer: but that it yeah it was (0:33:17) Al: like 10 seconds or something like that. It was so slow. (0:33:17) Spencer: couple seconds yeah so when I when I was playing this part I basically resorted to like I would (0:33:25) Spencer: stay perfectly still and just constantly hold down the repair button and then if I saw an attack (0:33:30) Al: Interesting. Okay. (0:33:33) Spencer: coming then I’d let go of the repair and (0:33:36) Spencer: quickly try to dodge it and then just continue to repair. (0:33:40) Al: That’s interesting. So what I ended up doing was dying. And then I just got better at dodging, (0:33:48) Spencer: Yeah. (0:33:49) Al: so I was constantly moving all the time and aiming for the eyes, because the eyes were (0:33:54) Al: the thing that you got the most damage on. But yeah, I didn’t even… After the first (0:34:00) Al: time and I pressed it and it didn’t really work very well, and then I was like, “Well, (0:34:04) Al: this is pointless.” I was like, “Well, I’m just not gonna let it hit me then.” And I (0:34:11) Al: think I died a second time, but then the third time I basically didn’t get hit that time. (0:34:15) Al: So I found that much easier than trying to do the healing. It was basically pointless. (0:34:20) Spencer: Yeah, the healing I mean, yeah, it was it saved me a couple times (0:34:24) Spencer: But like I said, like I really had to focus on like not moving half the time and then like quickly moving when there is (0:34:31) Spencer: an attack and then just not (0:34:32) Al: So then you defeat Ebera, well defeat basically Ebera is like oh no I need to (0:34:40) Al: get away and runs away and then you go back to the surface and this is when (0:34:46) Al: Godzilla is like supercharged which I feel like is a pretty standard Godzilla (0:34:51) Al: thing right like being powered up by something in this case it’s been powered (0:34:56) Al: up by resting in the the big blue hole and I like I really like the look of (0:35:03) Al: this scene where he like glows red I mean obviously he’s quite often gluing (0:35:07) Al: different colors but from what I’ve from what I’ve seen he’s typically glown blue (0:35:13) Al: rather than red (0:35:14) Spencer: Yeah, so so this particular version is referencing (0:35:19) Spencer: Godzilla versus destroyer, which is one of the last movies in actually when we’re looking at Mickey (0:35:26) Al: I think it’s the last one that she was in, yeah. (0:35:28) Spencer: When that she’s in yeah, and basically in this movie the plot revolves around Godzilla is (0:35:36) Spencer: Is like overheating like? (0:35:38) Al: Oh, interesting. (0:35:39) Spencer: too much energy (0:35:41) Spencer: And Godzilla kind of takes on this forum. (0:35:44) Spencer: And actually Godzilla also has a like offspring in this movie. (0:35:48) Spencer: And spoilers for anyone that wants us to watch this movie. (0:35:52) Spencer: Godzilla does eventually melt down and overheat. (0:35:54) Spencer: But Godzilla’s offspring kind of absorbs that energy and becomes the new Godzilla. (0:36:00) Al: Interesting. Does it explain in the film why Godzilla is overheating? Or is that just like (0:36:06) Spencer: I I forget off the top of my head. I feel like it probably does explain. It’s been so long since I’ve watched (0:36:06) Al: a mystery? Because it would be very funny if it didn’t explain it at all, and then this (0:36:17) Al: is the explanation. This is like the canon explanation as to why that ends up happening. (0:36:24) Al: Because it feels like this if they don’t explain why, and it’s just like one day Godzilla turns (0:36:30) Al: overheating, right? That this is like then fits in perfectly just before the beginning (0:36:38) Al: of that film. And that would be very funny to me. (0:36:43) Spencer: Yeah, so I’m looking this up just because I want to double check. (0:36:48) Spencer: It’s saying that Godzilla’s heart is basically melting down. (0:36:52) Spencer: So I believe it’s coming to the end of its life, essentially. (0:36:52) Al: but why. But it doesn’t explain how that happened, like what I’m reading in this plot, (0:37:03) Al: this could absolutely fit in technically. (0:37:06) Spencer: Oh yeah definitely could like as like some weird like oh it went off to the (0:37:11) Spencer: island to the to the hole I guess in this game to like help recover for a (0:37:15) Spencer: little bit (0:37:16) Al: But then it kills it that makes this so much sadder, right (0:37:20) Spencer: yeah well you know I mean Godzilla’s not fully gone right little Godzilla takes (0:37:26) Al: Sure, but like because the whole point of this this bit in the game you feel by the end of it is oh (0:37:31) Al: I helped Godzilla recover, but actually if this is how this works actually you helped Godzilla kill itself (0:37:40) Spencer: - True. - True, yeah. (0:37:41) Al: Which just completely changes the feeling of the DLC (0:37:44) Al: See ya. (0:37:46) Spencer: But I do find it interesting that they chose– (0:37:51) Spencer: this is actually quite an iconical look for Godzilla, (0:37:54) Spencer: to be honest. (0:37:55) Spencer: This is very much referenced all the time, (0:37:57) Spencer: or very lots of figures come out with this look. (0:38:03) Spencer: I mean, in the American Destroy All Monsters, (0:38:07) Spencer: the one with Ghidorah and Rodan and Boston and everything, (0:38:12) Spencer: they’re kind of referencing this look with his meltdown. (0:38:17) Spencer: So I can kind of see why they chose it. (0:38:19) Spencer: This is a little funny that they chose this and Ivaro, (0:38:22) Spencer: who hasn’t made an appearance since, like, the ’60s. (0:38:25) Spencer: Well, meh. (0:38:26) Al: and I’m like, “Are they doing the same thing that the Apple TV Plus series did where they’re (0:38:27) Spencer: I mean, one appearance in– (0:38:37) Al: just inventing new kaiju or is this a…” and then I googled and I’m like, “Oh no, OK. (0:38:43) Al: This is actually a classic kaiju.” (0:38:43) Spencer: Oh no, no, no, Ibra is a great character. Yeah, classic, like, you know, classic scene Godzilla playing volleyball with a giant rock against Ibra. (0:38:50) Al: I mean, it’s the perfect one to use for Dave the Diver, right? Like, it makes sense why (0:38:56) Spencer: It definitely is. I think the only other one that probably would make sense in this scenario (0:38:56) Al: they would choose a giant sea creature. (0:39:04) Spencer: would be this one called “Manda” I believe is what how you pronounce it but it’s like pretty (0:39:10) Al: - Yep. (0:39:11) Spencer: much just a dragon that lives underwater but it looks like a very like typical you know like (0:39:13) Al: - Okay. (0:39:17) Spencer: like Japanese or like, you know, dragon, long serpent. (0:39:20) Al: Yeah, that would definitely work as well, but I think there’s something very satisfying (0:39:24) Al: about it being a giant lobster, you know? Like that I think is very enjoyable, because (0:39:30) Al: then, once you’ve defeated - we’ll get into the final gameplay for defeating it in a minute (0:39:36) Al: - but once you’ve defeated him, you can then use his meat for cooking, you know, which (0:39:42) Al: would be a little bit weirder if it was a dragon rather than a lobster, you know. (0:39:46) Al: Okay, let’s talk about this final battle, then. (0:39:49) Al: - Okay. (0:39:50) Al: Something which I definitely did not expect, (0:39:53) Al: you are now controlling Godzilla (0:39:57) Al: in your final battle against Ebirah, (0:40:00) Al: which I guess makes sense. (0:40:02) Al: You’re not going to be able to fully defeat the kaiju. (0:40:04) Al: You’re just a person in the submarine, (0:40:06) Al: but Godzilla definitely can. (0:40:09) Al: And it’s kind of, I referenced this as like a (0:40:12) Al: rock, paper, scissors type game. (0:40:14) Spencer: Yeah, so like when I was playing this I definitely didn’t catch on to that at first. (0:40:21) Spencer: So it was a mad dash at the end when it was like half half health left, haven’t really (0:40:26) Spencer: done much damage and they’re like, okay, this is like, I have to methodically think about (0:40:30) Spencer: each button I press each time. (0:40:32) Al: Yeah. So Ebera will show a little animation when it’s about to use a specific attack and then you (0:40:38) Al: need to defend at that point. And then you have like three different attacks you can use, a really (0:40:43) Al: fast one, a kind of medium one, and then a really slow one. The big disadvantage of using the really (0:40:49) Al: slow one is that you can be interrupted by Ebera attacking you and get damaged without having (0:40:55) Al: damaged Ebera. That’s kind of like the big thing, but it gives a lot of damage, but… (0:41:02) Al: I don’t know. It’s fun. I guess it’s yet another gameplay element that we’re talking about that (0:41:10) Al: maybe this would be less weird if we’d finished the game and we were coming back to the game to (0:41:15) Al: play this DLC. Maybe it makes it more interesting because it’s different. I don’t know. (0:41:20) Spencer: yeah it actually played out very similar to (0:41:23) Spencer: I don’t know if you’ve ever talked about ultra kaiju monster rancher (0:41:27) Al: I think only in passing, like just as someone mentioned it, it was something they were interested (0:41:33) Al: in sort of thing. (0:41:34) Al: I don’t think we’ve ever talked about it in detail. (0:41:36) Spencer: in that game I mean it kind of plays like (0:41:39) Spencer: I guess that was actually my first monster rancher game but (0:41:42) Spencer: you raise you know kaiju from (0:41:44) Spencer: the ultra man series (0:41:45) Spencer: and then you have them fight each other and they have a very similar combat (0:41:49) Spencer: system where it’s kind of more of a raw (0:41:50) Spencer: paper scissors like okay you have like (0:41:52) Spencer: your heavy attack or your medium attack (0:41:54) Spencer: your light attack and that’s going to go (0:41:56) Spencer: against whatever the other characters (0:41:58) Spencer: heavy medium or light that they choose (0:42:00) Spencer: and like in a you know kind of a (0:42:02) Spencer: triangle this beats that but that beats (0:42:04) Spencer: this and so forth but yeah the I mean (0:42:09) Spencer: it was definitely interesting it was (0:42:11) Spencer: fun to take control of Godzilla for a (0:42:12) Spencer: little bit even if it was for just like (0:42:14) Spencer: a smidgen of time (0:42:16) Al: Yeah, yeah. And then once you defeat Ebirah, that’s pretty much it. You gather up Ebirah’s (0:42:26) Al: meat, Godzilla goes away, and it all seems like a happy end to the story, even if we (0:42:32) Al: forget about the fact that Godzilla’s about to go die. And then there’s really only one (0:42:41) Al: other part of the DLC, and that’s there’s collectibles. Did you end up… So when I (0:42:46) Al: told you yesterday, or today for you, you didn’t know about these collectibles. Did you (0:42:49) Al: just like finish the DLC and then put the game down straight away? Because I’m pretty (0:42:54) Spencer: A little bit, maybe. (0:42:57) Al: sure it’s like, maybe Miki calls you the next day? I can’t remember. But basically Miki’s (0:43:04) Al: like, “Oh, there’s these little figurines. Can you find them for me?” I think. And… (0:43:09) Spencer: Mm-hmm (0:43:11) Spencer: I think where I ended was right after Bancho like comes up with the yeah (0:43:16) Al: Yes, you go to the sushi restaurant, you talk to Bancho, you check everything’s okay (0:43:25) Al: because you’re like, we just had a massive kaiju fight. Is everything okay? Which is a (0:43:28) Al: fair enough thing to question. And then Bancho was like, yeah, it’s all fine. Here’s some (0:43:33) Al: new dishes for this kaiju meat you got. (0:43:38) Spencer: So, yeah, after he comes up with those recipes, I believe that’s when I put it down. (0:43:43) Spencer: So then you messaged me, and I’m looking at these figures, and my goodness, I should have… (0:43:46) Al: They’re very cool. They’re very cool. So you’ve got, you’ve got like right at the start, like (0:43:47) Spencer: They got some good ones going here. (0:43:54) Al: you’ve got ones from like in the sixties. Um, you’ve got some from the seventies, from (0:43:59) Al: the eighties, the nineties. Um, I don’t think there are any, there are none like really (0:44:04) Al: new ones are there. (0:44:06) Spencer: The newest one I’m seeing is Anguirus who’s the 2000. Oh, no, wait. No, I take that back. There’s (0:44:12) Al: Oh, this 2016 Godzilla. (0:44:13) Spencer: Shin Godzilla (0:44:14) Spencer: Yeah, 2016 Shin Godzilla is there (0:44:17) Al: Yeah, okay, cool. (0:44:18) Spencer: And then Anguirus would probably be the next one from 2004 which would be the Final Wars Godzilla version (0:44:24) Al: right yeah so it’s quite I mean it’s a really small extra piece and it’s just another collectible (0:44:31) Al: if you like collecting things which personally I do so I will probably go and finish collecting (0:44:35) Al: these I haven’t put any effort into them I’ve just picked them up as I found them because (0:44:40) Al: like there were a few that were in like the the last areas like the glacial cave and stuff (0:44:45) Al: like that but yeah it’s a fun little thing and it’s it shows that they actually kind (0:44:53) Al: It’s not… (sighs) (0:44:54) Al: Like many things could just be like, “Oh, we have a tie-in. We don’t really care. It’s just a tie-in. Like, here’s a little thing.” (0:45:03) Al: But like, not only did it have a whole new story and a new gameplay element, and you get to control Godzilla, but they’ve also then got 20 collectibles of different Godzillas and other kaiju from throughout decades. (0:45:18) Spencer: Yeah, that’s fun that they added that in there. (0:45:21) Spencer: You know, Godzilla has been collaborating with a lot of stuff this year, to be honest. (0:45:25) Spencer: Like it is its 70th anniversary this year, so yeah. (0:45:29) Al: Oh, wow. (0:45:32) Spencer: So a lot of interesting collaborations, including this one. (0:45:37) Spencer: But you know, it’s fun to see things that are more than just Godzilla thrown in, right? (0:45:42) Spencer: Like it’s fun to see the collectibles and see the different references to the different (0:45:45) Spencer: movies and stuff. (0:45:46) Spencer: A lot of 90s references, which may… (0:45:48) Spencer: Makes sense now that Miki comes from all of those different 80s/90s movies. (0:45:56) Al: Yeah, yeah, fun. I enjoyed that. It’s not like, I’m glad this is a free DLC. I don’t feel like (0:46:04) Al: this would be really worth an extra payment on top, right? It’s pretty small in what it is. (0:46:10) Spencer: Yeah, I mean the reality is I probably would have paid like five ten dollars for this would I (0:46:15) Al: Oh, don’t get me wrong, I would have done it for the podcast, right? Don’t get me wrong, (0:46:18) Al: but I would have been like, “Was this really worth an extra payment sort of thing?” (0:46:22) Spencer: Oh, I would have done it for myself but I would have not recommended anyone else do (0:46:26) Spencer: it for themselves. (0:46:27) Spencer: I’m like, “It’s not worth five, ten dollars, it’s absolutely worth being free.” (0:46:33) Al: Yeah. (0:46:33) Spencer: But I do believe you probably, if you haven’t downloaded it already, I think you probably (0:46:37) Spencer: missed your opportunity to download it, correct? (0:46:40) Al: I was already gone. I know that was a limited amount of time, but I wasn’t sure when it was. (0:46:45) Spencer: have to double check but yeah it is a limited time release so (0:46:50) Al: Oh, no, you can get it through to November. (0:46:52) Spencer: it’s never okay yeah so if you haven’t downloaded yet go ahead get it free you know (0:46:57) Al: You have to own the game to download it. (0:46:59) Al: Sadly, I thought you could add it to your library, but no, if you click it, (0:47:02) Al: if you go to add it to your library, you don’t own the game. (0:47:06) Al: It says that you need to own the game. (0:47:08) Al: So you need to have bought the game before (0:47:10) Al: November the 23rd and then clicked on add to library on the Godzilla DLC. (0:47:15) Al: But, yeah, I mean, the game in and of itself is fun. (0:47:19) Al: I, I, like, probably. (0:47:20) Al: One of the best games I’ve played in a couple of years, it’s really good fun. (0:47:24) Al: Um, but I mean, well, it was the reason that it was, you know, in a lot of people’s game of the year. (0:47:26) Spe

Here is, at this moment in time, the last movie with a man in a suit is playing Godzilla. So it's the end of an era for these kind of Godzilla movies. And they're BIG for this one! But does bigger mean better? If you ask the fans, that depends on your preference of movies. You'll either love it or hate it. Let's find out which, one last time.
First off, I want to apologize for the background noise in this episode. That being said, in this installment of our podcast we sail off to an island in the South Seas where Godzilla, Mothra, a giant shrimp/lobster thing called Ebirah, a terrorist organization building nuclear bombs, and a giant condor all collide for an epic showdown. But was it epic enough for our hosts' tastes? Listen and find out! You can contact us at stompthisway1954@gmail.com The end track is the Main Title by Masaru Sato (also unintentional background music courtesy of Downton Abbey)

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - The Cortes Island Museum is offering a full slate of special events this month They start at 1 PM this Saturday, Aug 5, with Jewellery Identification. People are being invited to bring their own pieces. “I've got a small collection and I'm going to at least bring some things that I have that I think are interesting. We can go over the different types of materials, a little bit of the process of manufacturing and also go over the gems that are commonly found within pieces. We even talk about The time periods the pieces have come from as their stylistic choices in manufacturing basically,” explained Events Coordinator, Alex Woywitka. At 7:30 on Thursday August 10. Kim Marks will be holding a Tattoo Art Show in the Museum Heritage Garden. AW: “Kim Marks is the premier tattoo artist on Cortes. She really does amazing work and is a really great drawer. A lot of my friends have really gotten a lot of work done from her. Sun Rob is going to play some music for us and Kim is also going to have a table of pottery and other art that she's made.” Lovesfest returns to Cortes Island on August 12, and the museum is hosting its own special event from 1 to 4 PM. AW: “If you're at Lovefest, stop in at Wild Cortes and take a look at Trivia Jenga. It's a nice space that they have there, and cool because it's in the basement of the Agricultural Learning Center there at Linnea.” There will be a Literary Reading Evening at the museum on Thursday Aug 17th. AW: “We are inviting authors. I've got a list so far of five authors from Cortes who are going to come and read from their books. It's something that we do at the museum, maybe once a year.” CC: Can you release the names of the ones you've already signed? AW: “I'd rather not at this point. We don't have the poster made up quite yet for that one, but we've got some good people showing up.” The History of Modern Toys comes to the Museum from 1-4 PM, on Saturday Aug 19th 1-4 AW: “The vintage toy show is going to be something that I do personally. I've been buying and selling on the internet with that type of stuff since 2010. So I've really got quite a nice collection that it's pretty unheard of and a lot of people on the island probably have never seen a lot of this stuff before.” “I'm going to bring in a lot of old stuff, maybe as late as the sixties and maybe as new as the nineties, but most of it is going to be from the seventies and then from the early eighties as well.” “I'm going to bring in my 1966 Godzilla by Toho. It's not an original, but it's a replica of the one that they had used from the 1966 movie when they made it, versus Ebirah, which was another Godzilla monster. I'm going to bring in some of my 1970s Shogun Warrior Robots: Great Mazinger and Raiden, for example.” “I will bring in my Diaclone Great Robot Base and Fortress X Robots, which are probably two of the most amazing elite engineered toys that have ever come out. Some of these things that I am bringing are worth several thousand dollars each.” There will be a Wetlands Conservation Presentation in the Cortes Island Library, at Linnaea, from 6-7 PM on August 23 AW: “Later on in August and then in early September, we're going to be doing a few more music events.”

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! The final “Godzilla Redux” episode of season three features three guests! Longtime staples Joe and Joy Metter and first-timer Brendan Morley join Nate to discuss Ebirah, Horror of the Deep (aka Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster). It's Brendan's favorite Godzilla film, so it was only natural he'd be here. Nate enticed Joe and Joy to return by having them watch the “banned” Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode that riffed the film. That means the entire gamut is run because Nate watched it subtitled while Brendan watched the international dub. The Metters, as the resident kaiju newbies, notice and appreciate some things hardcore fans take for granted—including what might be an Easter egg no one else has ever seen! It's an MIFV exclusive, people! Listen to learn what it is! Before the broadcast, Nate meets a new girl who brings him a press release that says Jimmy is in jail, requiring Jet Jaguar to fill in for him on the show. Then Jessica shows up to berate Nate about taking her job. Afterward, Jessica hears from Mimo that Mothra DNA is being stolen by a Bug Lady, so she intercedes as Crystal Lady. But this new foe proves too strong—until she's helped by Whambat! Check out Brendan's YouTube channel: youtube.com/@AutisticLizardProductions. The prologue and epilogue, “Severing Family Ties! Jessica Fights Nate and Daggermoth,” was written by Nathan Marchand. This episode was edited by Kim Lacanilao of Nuclear Lizard Media (https://www.nuclearlizardmedia.com/) and Nathan Marchand. Guest Cast: Sarah Marchand as Jessica/Crystal Lady Kyndra Chastain as Saskia Messer/Daggermoth Becky “Bex” Smith as Herself/Narrator Damon Noyes as Gary Steward/Whambat, Mimo, and the Nachfalter Additional music: “Dramatic Tense Cinematic Music” by Argsound Background Music “The X-Files Theme (Cover)” by Neon Frontier “Chant My Name!” by Masaaki Endo “Call My Name (And I'll be There)” by Jennifer Cihi “Sailor Moon Theme Song” by Nicole & Brynne Price “Shredder (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV) - The Shredder” by Sixto Sounds “She's Got the Power” by Stan Bush “A weird thing” by Chiro Sound effects sourced from Freesound.org, including those by InspectorJ and AmeAngelofSin.

Byrd, Matt and Kevin talk about Toho's web puppet show, Godziban! Godziban is a YouTube puppet show created by Toho and puppetry troupe Studio Koganemushi (after they were winners in Toho's Gemstone talent scouting contest). The show follows three young Godzilla brothers, Godzilla-kun, Minilla, and Little as they practice to be great monsters and have adventures running into the likes of King Ghidorah, Baragon, Rodan, Angilas, Ebirah, Mothra and other Toho monsters. We review the first two seasons of the show as well as cover Studio Koganemushi's history in the kaiju genre. We also talk about Toho's Gigan suit crowdfunding campaign failing and the plans for Legendary to open a theme park in France with Godzilla and Kong attractions. Listen and enjoy!
In this episode, we're discussing Ebirah, Horror of the Deep - which is usually referred to as one of the lowest points of the Godzilla franchise. Does this colourful addition to the series completely fall flat, or is there still some fun under the sun to be had on Devil's Island? Let's find out!

We are closing in on finishing all the Godzilla that exists. So this week, we are hitting one of the last Showa era G films, Ebirah Horror of the Deep. A crazy island adventure, and the start of Godzilla truly becoming a hero. Does this face turn work? Join us with Phill Dishon and Kevin Shanks to find out!
In this episode Zack and Collin discuss Godzilla Vs. The Sea Monster (1966). Listen in as they talk about the directorial debut of Jun Fukuda, and how a movie originally planned to star King Kong turned into Godzilla Vs. The Sea Monster.
Wait, what? YHS on Monster Island is celebrating one year of giving us kaiju fans everything we ever wanted - from the "spine gap" to "kaiju on the side", from damning Godzilla vs. Megaguirus to the 7th lair of bad movie Hades to defending the misunderstood cinematic achievements that are Ebirah, Horror of the Deep and Yamato Takeru. Yes, we made it one whole friggin' year! And how do the "Tattooed Titan of Tokusatsu" Jacob Walsh and "Mayor of Toku Toy Town" Jay Key celebrate? They watch Godzilla Raids Again...uhhh...yep. But it's not just our intrepid duo taking about bad dino science, Minoru Chiaki love, and dancing - oh no, we also get a host of pick-ups, including a Top 10 Wishlist get, and some recent toy news! It will make you laugh, cry, and buy vinyl toys covered in glitter...it's YHS on Monster Island!

Robbing banks, stealing yachts, picking locks and dance dance dancing! Lay back and let the surf rock take you--if you dare... It's Ebirah!
This week, two exciting entrants in the monster canon join the fray. First, it's everyone's favorite crustacean Kaiju, the indomitable and very crabby Ebirah, the horror of the deep! It's a surf-rock camp fantasy in the 1966 monster movie, wherein Godzilla, Mothra, and Ebirah square off, and a lot of peculiar Kaiju hijinks ensue. The fun does not end here, as Godzilla's paternal instincts are given the spotlight with the inclusion of Minya, a debatably cute rapscallion who has won our hearts. Is Ebirah's sea-bound mettle enough to menace his way up the rankings? Is Minya's odd cuteness enough to secure a place among the Gods of Kaiju? Our team of experts have all the answers.
Your intrepid hosts of YHS on Monster Island take you on a trip from Wonderfest to Lobsterfest as they review the recent toy reveals from Wonderfest 2022 in Japan and have a fun discussion around why everyone shouldn't hate on Ebirah, Horror of the Deep (aka Godzilla vs. The Sea Monsters) so much! “The Tattooed Titan of Tokusatsu” Jacob Walsh and the “Mayor of Toku Toy Town” Jay Key are pretty passionate in their appreciation of Ebirah – and throw out some hot takes that are sure to start some arguments among kaiju fans! Oh, and Mothra, the Flying Dracula Monster is a real thing – just ask any daikaiju-digging Dutchman! As always, our hosts share their weekly kaiju collectible pick-ups and this is one for the ages! There's glitter, there's exclusives, there's sofubi and statues, and there's an eBay steal of a lifetime! Welcome to YHS on Monster Island…where you get your #kaijuontheside!
The Voice without Body has a special guest on the first of a two part spooktacular summary of the seances they perused for their spooky season festivities. Topics touched on include Korean folk horror, kaiju movies, hammer horrors, Chinese hopping vampires, Scooby Doo, and BoB.

On this episode of the Comics & Kaijus podcast we review 1966’s Ebriah, Horror of the Deep and we take a look at GI Joe: A Real American Hero Vol. 1.www.projectlouder.net
After a string of films introducing legendary monsters into the Gdzilla mythos, it's time to mix things up and introduce two monsters that make (nearly) no appearance ever again! The Squad reawakens from it's slumber to witness a CRAB BATTLE of epic proprtions as Ebirah, horror of the deep, challenges the King of the Monsters to a contest worthy of his title: a volleyball match. All that, plus the world's most badass eyepatch in this exciting episode of SQUADZILLA! ______ Squadzilla is a podcast where two life long Godzilla fans, JaxBlade and Tom Oliver, indoctrinate a newcomer to the franchise, Saberspark, by forcing him to watch every single Godzilla film yet released in sequential order, until he's as obsessed as they are. Witness the birth of a fanboy in real time, perhaps become one yourself, and have some laughs along the way as no stone is left unturned, and no maser tank is left undemolished in this lighthearted exploration of the Godzilla franchise.
On this episode the gang are joined by the duo from Monsters vs Men to discuss the first Jun Fukuda Godzilla film, Ebirah Horror of The Deep! They discuss Jun Fukuda's later disdain for the series, the introduction of a wackier tone, and plenty of MvM in-jokes. NOTE: This episode unfortunately has audio issues so the audio quality will be a bit lacking. We apologize for this and pledge that future episodes will avoid this. Thank you.
It'll hook you in the first few minutes! This week, Nicky and Wyatt take a look at the unassuming but outstanding Frankenstein Conquers The World, a clear highlight in the Toho monster catalogue for its incredible effects work and enthralling sci-fi story. Despite being adapted for the kaiju genre, "Conquers The World" still retains that essential Frankenstein core and it makes for one of the best films we've discussed to date. Hear more in-depth thoughts in this very episode! And tune in next time for some fun in the sun... EBIRAH, HORROR OF THE DEEP. Follow us on twitter! @EWD_Podcast @Anti_Laser @Wazpranger

Our hosts return from a long absence for an episode jam-packed with three movies! Or, well, two and a half. Listen, sometimes you have to know when to tap out, okay? From a giant lobster impaling a pair of humans with its giant claws to the far more terrifying visage of Godzilla's misshapen progeny, ending with the catharsis of a big ol' Avengers-style throwdown at the foot of Mt. Fuji, this episode is a genuine emotional roller coaster! Truly, the Godzilla series of films touches upon every genre of film—including "bad."Movies discussed:EBIRAH, HORROR OF THE DEEP (1966)Directed by Jun FukudaProduced by Tomoyuki TanakaScreenplay by Shinichi Sekizawa?Music by Masaru SatoCinematography Kazuo YamadaStarring Akira Takarada, Kumi Mizuno, Chotaro Togin, and Hideo SunazukaSON OF GODZILLA (1967)Directed by Jun FukudaProduced by Tomoyuki TanakaScreenplay by Shinichi Sekizawa and Kazue ShibaMusic by Masaru SatoCinematography Kazuo YamadaStarring Akira Kubo, Tadao Takashima, Bibari Maeda, and Akihiko HirataDESTROY ALL MONSTERS!

Chris, Tyler and David Wayne Young chat about three more films in the Showa period of Godzilla films. Including: Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster, Son of Godzilla and Destroy All Monsters.
Nos reunimos en nuestro cuartel general mientras el erudito Octavio agoniza para despiezar y servir dos películas clásicas de Godzilla: -Películas: Los Monstruos del Mar y La Isla de los Monstruos forman nuestro programa más refrescante del año. Por fin escuchamos las súplicas de nuestro oyente Guybrush. -Ficha del monstruo: Este mes desvelamos los secretos de Ebirah y nos metemos con el abusica de Gabara. -Kaijus, ¡fuera del cine! Servobot y Josan nos hablan de Camelot Trigger, el juego de rol de NSR ediciones que traslada el mito artúrico al espacio... ¡con mechas! -Guía de supervivencia Monsteriana: El Comandante Josan nos da valiosa información para sobrevivir a langostas gigantes con afición por el tenis. -Entrevista con el monstruo: Este mes, Zipi y Zap….digo, Servobot y Marco cogen el AVE para viajar a Galicia, ¿quién les espera allí? -Correo de los monsterianos: Contestamos vuestras preguntas, comentarios y sugerencias, ¡este mes tenemos comentarios de gente nueva! -Formas de contacto y próximo programa: Te facilitamos la interacción con nosotros y anunciamos el título y el tema del siguiente programa. Todo acompañado del buen humor y la diversión que nos caracteriza. Cosas de Monstruos lo protagonizan: Marco Osera como: “El ayudante de proyeccionista del último cine del pueblo”. Octavio López como: “El erudito”, que aporta el toque de cordura (aunque en este programa estaba en sus horas más bajas). Josan como: “El Comandante”, enciclopedia viviente de datos Kaiju y un maestro del Kung Fu Espacial. Y Frank Guerra como: “Servobot”, cíborg avanzado muy cansino y con unas cuantas averías. Puedes encontrarnos en www.facebook.com/cosasdmonstruos y en @monsterianos. Hay más, pero me da pereza ponerlos todos. Más programas en www.canalosera.com

Look who drove all the way to Utah to talk Godzilla? Ladies and gentlement, put your hands together for Jason Poor! Here's his theory, for your enjoyment: This is a long and ludicrous theory. It takes a lot of liberties, but I love the idea of all of his characters being the same man, so I decided to put something together. I did some research in Godzilla wikis and rewatched some of the movies to get a storyline together. I also thought about this way too much. Enjoy! I'd be curious to hear anyone else's thoughts. It should be noted that I did not include non-Godzilla movies, as I haven't seen most of them and can't make a definite determination of where they would fit in. A brilliant young oceanographer with an interest in paleontology, Dr. Sarizawa was in his early twenties when he discovered the existence of a marine dinosaur. He had recently returned from World War 2 with a devastating eye injury, and found himself bitter at humanity for the devastation man could cause. He hoped that the discovery of Titanosaurus would catapult him back into academic circles and bring him some clarity, but when he suggested he could control the creature the other scientists only laughed and ridiculed him. Feeling betrayed, Dr. Sarizawa moved to Tokyo, where he met and befriended fellow paleontologist Dr. Yamane. He even became engaged to Yamane's daughter, Emiko. But his true passion remained learning the secrets to controlling Titanosaurus. When he was approached by the terrorist group Red Bamboo to assist with the building of their base on Lechti Island, he knew he would be able to continue his studies in earnest. In the meantime, his experiments led him to the accidental creation of a superweapon, the Oxygen Destroyer. At first the device scared him, but after Godzilla appeared and attacked Tokyo he knew he had his chance. He phoned Red Bamboo and told them to be ready. Under the guise of a noble underwater sacrifice, Sarizawa set off the Oxygen Destroyer and in the ensuing chaos boarded a Red Bamboo submarine and made his escape. Red Bamboo gave him the name Ryuui and brought him to Lechti Island. There he found room to work on both his pet projects and solve problems for his new employers. Immediately upon arriving on the island he set to work a plan to keep Ebirah at bay from incoming Red Bamboo ships. With the organization able to move freely again in the pacific, he was sent many times on intelligence gathering missions to mainland Japan, usually as the scientist Kashiwagi. This put him in position to weigh in when Rodan, Mothra, King Kong, Varan appeared. When the identity became too high-profile, he retired it to take the role of a Police Chief in order to report to Red Bamboo on Japan's security. This post put him right in the path of Ghidorah's destructive debut. In order to play these roles, Sarizawa received plastic surgery at the hands of Red Bamboo scientists and was fitted with a glass eye. The years of Kaiju attacks took its toll on Sarizawa. Eventually he returned to Lechti Island. Being “home” allowed him to remove the troublesome glass eye, but Red Bamboo had a different vision for the tortured scientist. They pressed him into their security service as a Guard Captain. Here's where things get weird. Well, weirder. If all of Hirata's characters are the same person then he has to have a daughter during this time. Due to the influx of Infant Islanders on Lechti Island, I submit that Sarizawa met one of these and began a forbidden romance. She became pregnant, whereupon he secured her release, or smuggled her to Japan. There she gave birth to a daughter and named her Katsura. I also think that it's highly convenient that Godzilla appears asleep on Lechti Island waiting for reanimation. This is my second theory: because Godzilla had provided a way out for Sarizawa in the past, he thought he could use the monster as an escape plan from the Red Bamboo. Because the compound of the yellow berries was similar to the red ones from Pharo Island, and because he was familiar with that case, Sarizawa concocted a serum that he somehow managed to administer to Godzilla and render him unconscious. From there, he would be able to use a radio-controlled Titanosaurus to deliver the sleeping Godzilla to a cave on Lechti Island, where Sarizawa could awaken him at will. Unfortunately for him, when the Yahlen sank of the coast of the island, the survivors awakened Godzilla ahead of schedule, leading to the destruction of the Red Bamboo base. Sarizawa made to escape with the leaders of his organization, but the Ebirah-repellant had been replaced with a non-functioning serum and the giant lobster destroyed their ship. A Red Bamboo submarine operating in the area picked them up and delivered the survivors to the mainland. Though a few survived, the organization had been destroyed and the remnants disbanded. By now Sarizawa was well-practiced in assuming identities and took the name Fujisaki, a scientist. He settled into his new life and, after his wife passed, began to raise his daughter on his own. However, when the UN created a team of oceanographers and meteorologists to study pacific weather patterns, he jumped at the chance to be close to Titanosaurus again. The group set up their experiment on Sollgel Island. Sarizawa volunteers to operate the radios, secretly searching for any sign of his dinosaur. In a story now as old as, I imagine, this theory, Godzilla soon intervened in the experiment and the ensuing chaos destroyed the research station. The survivors found themselves on a raft in the ocean with a submarine bearing down on them. Sarizawa recognized the conn tower as his compatriots in Red Bamboo, but when he got on board he found instead a cadre of Black Hole Planet 3 Aliens. The Aliens killed the others, but recognizing Sarizawa as the most brilliant and with the most experience with Godzilla, they spared him and provided him with a new life in Japan. As Dr. Miyajima. Sarizawa was supposed to be in their employ, but he found the methods of his new masters distasteful and purposely sabotaged their operations. Soon Godzilla destroyed Mechagodzilla, the Black Hole Planet 3 aliens were defeated, and Sarizawa sought to disappear into anonymity. He took his final identity, Dr. Shinzo Mafune. His full life had made him tired and distrusting. He stopped going into public and his resentment of the scientific community grew. He blamed them for the tumultuous events of his past. Unbeknownst to him, the Black Hole Planet 3 Aliens had returned and were monitoring him. When a tragic accident during one of his Titanosaurus experiments claimed the life of his daughter Katsura, the aliens saw their chance and swept in to save her life with advanced cybernetics. Indebted to them, Sarizawa now saw no alternative but to go along with their plans. Soon he began to warm to the idea of taking revenge on the scientific community. His plans however soon attracted the eye of INTERPOL agents. Saraizawa was fatally wounded in a firefight between the agents and the aliens, and died alongside his beloved daughter.

Ross is back on the podcast as he and Steven navigate their way to Solgell Island, following the signal of a mysterious brainwave. What awaits them? Extreme weather, giant invertebrates, and the heir to the King of the Monsters - it can only be Son of Godzilla on the Kaijusaurus Podcast. Show Notes - Thanks to @nuclear-warrior, @bretlowski, @mekagojira3k, and @bluskreem for submitting their thoughts and opinions on the film. - …and apologies to @blackeye15, whose comments I forgot to read pout on the episode. Their submission follows: Son of Godzilla is on the lower end of Godzilla movies for me. Like Ebirah I appreciate a few things it does better as an adult but I think it’s still a weaker film. I have never been a big fan of Minya, I think we should keep him out, I do love Godzilla Jr. to be clear. I will admit I love the fire-breathing lesson scene and the final shot of Godzilla holding Minya. Other than that can’t really stand the little creature. I always figured Godzilla was adopting the little radioactive toad so I wondered why everyone was arguing about it over the internet when I was a kid. Apparently Nakajima considers Godzilla female which I’m totally okay with to be honest A creature named Godzilla is most certainly one of the few beefs I have with 1998’s Godzilla. Here’s the bits I’ve always loved as a kid: Kamacuras. It was super fun giving Godzilla a bunch of mook monsters he can easily tear apart rather than one equally strong monster. I keep hoping some day Toho has Godzilla fighting a swarm of them. I now appreciate the complicated marionette systems used for Kamacuras and Kumonga. None the less I think the end fight just drags on far too long at a poor pace. Kumonga shoots web! Godzilla shoots fire! Not very effective. Now Kumonga is on Godzilla! Now…nothing is happening until Minya shows up, though combo-attack was cool. It’s not really a bad Godzilla movie, it really isn’t ,it’s just kind of middle of the road and I’m very Minya biased. My favorite shot is when the Kamacuras are marching past the tower and two people are hiding, fantastic shot! I think Ebirah was more my ideal Godzilla on a jungle island adventure. - Due to the increasing length of the episodes, we will be curbing the length of listener submissions from here on out. More information on this will follow soon.
In the first episode of 2016, Steven and Ross find themselves shipwrecked on a remote tropical island, protected by a giant crustacean, populated by oversized condors, and under siege by a cut-throat terrorist organisation.
