Podcasts about moguera

You can find the podcast on Threads, Instagram and Bluesky. In 1992 Ishiro Honda sat down for his final interview with journalist David Milner. When asked about which of his own films were his favourite Honda listed Godzilla (1954), Gorath (1962) and The Mysterians from 1957. The Mysterians is a visually beautiful film full to the brim with sci-fi tropes. A technologically advanced but desperate alien race, affected by radiation, is invading earth and wants to take our healthy women for breeding purposes. There's also a groovy space station and the first mecha-kaiju in the form of Moguera. A film made at a time when Japan seems to be wrangling with what it means to be a post imperial, post nuclear tragedy country with a growing economy and a booming film industry. I have two wonderful experts to help shed light on the context of this trope laden sci-fi classic. Jay Telotte is Professor Emeritus of film and media studies at Georgia Tech. He has written/edited numerous books and articles about science fiction film including the 2023 book Selling Science Fiction Cinema. Yuki Miyamoto is Professor of Religious Studies and Director of the Humanities Center at DePaul University. Her work focuses on the ethics around nuclear discourse.

The Fabulous World of Jules Verne (1958), also known as Invention for Destruction or in its original Czech: Vynález zkázy. You can look to find the film on Just Watch but people in mainland and central Europe may find it easier to find with mainstream streaming services. The Criterion Channel also has the film available and there may be some Central and Eastern European services that you may be able to sign up to. I believe there may be a copy on YouTube but I am unsure of its quality or validity. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Steel Ground Dragon! If MOGUERA were a pokemon, I'd say that was too many types! Though bit aside, MOGUERA wouldn't be Dragon type. Just Steel/Ground. This guy was in one sci-fi movie in the 50s, and then almost disappeared for forever. But almost forty years later, the Godzilla franchise decided they needed a successor to MechaGodzilla... and the rest is history. Let's read some of that history, huh?

Hello, kaiju lovers! Nathan covers yet another film discussed on his former podcast, Kaijuvision Radio, by Brian Scherschell: Ishiro Honda's 1957 tokusatsu classic, The Mysterians. While Godzilla (1954) singlehanded created the kaiju and tokusatsu genres, this film arguably ushered in Toho's “golden age,” which would last for a decade. While Nathan does touch on Moguera, the special effects, and the film's many influences, the bulk of his analysis is focused on Japan's relationship with the United Nations, which the nation joined just a year before the film was released. The Mysterians expresses Japan's—and Honda's—postwar ideal of “proactive pacifism,” which it saw in the U.N. Throw in a few snarky interruptions from the podcast's intrepid producer, Jimmy From NASA, and a random cameo from a psycho-powered dictator, and it's a typical Wednesday at The Monster Island Film Vault. After that, Nathan dumps out the mailbag to read several iTunes reviews and e-mails from listeners. Speaking of which, be sure to check out the upcoming fan project, Batman Meets Godzilla, one of the craziest yet most intriguing lost projects made famous by John LeMay's book, The Big Book of Japanese Giant Monster Movies: The Lost Films (which now has a new “mutated” edition). T-SHIRT GIVEAWAY: Everyone who shares the Facebook and Twitter posts for this episode from the podcast's pages will be entered for a drawing for a Batman Meets Godzilla T-shirt. (One entry per person per social media). Entries will be taken from January 22 to January 28 at 11:59pm (EST). The winner must then send Nathan his/her shirt size, shirt color, and mailing address to be forwarded to the team at Batman Meets Godzilla. Here's a link to the Tee Public site with this epic shirt.
