There Have Been Far More Mechagodzilla Than I Ever Knew

It’s Tell It Animated time! And this time around he’s doing Mechagodzilla. Everybody loves a good kaiju. And I had no idea Mechagodzilla made so many appearances out there in this wide pop culture world.

That is one detailed, fancy-looking giant robot. The animator really went to extremes to get this guy done for this video! Kudos all around! And next video is the 50th! I doubt he’ll take my suggestion to do Robin. But who would be worthy for a 50th video? Maybe an update on every video he’s done so far? Or an update on his first video, whoever that was. My legit guess would be…Link! But we’ll see.

Also today is supposed to see the release of a new Deadpool & Wolverine trailer, so check back later! I’ll get that up as soon as I see it posted.

6 Classic Godzilla Monsters I Want to See in the Modern Films

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire comes out this week and promises some brand new monster action — and a pink Godzilla, which I’m totally fine with. We’ve already seen the new orangutan monster in the trailers, and there are hints of even more beasties for the new film. And while I’m in favor of creating new monsters, there are still plenty of classic beasts we’ve yet to see in the new franchise.

Go get’em, fellas!

I’m an old-school Godzilla fan from the silly ’80s period. And my favorite films were the ones where Godzilla teams up with other good monsters to fight the bad guys. The new movies have featured a lot of classic monsters, from Ghidorah, Mothra and Rodan to a surprise appearance from Mechagodzilla. But I want more! Hopefully this new film is another hit and we can keep getting these sequels over and over again, with more and more monsters!

Join me after the jump for six classic Godzilla beasties that I want to see in the new films!

I’m Not Sure What Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is Bringing to the Table

We got a new trailer yesterday for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, and I just…I don’t know what this movie is going to offer us. Obviously we’re going to get more of Godzilla and King Kong, and I’ve enjoyed the Monsterverse movies so far. But what is this new film really bringing to the table?

The trailer spends all this time teasing something dangerous and deadly coming…and then reveals that to be a rather lanky orangutan? There are hints of another monsters, and I’ve seen some of the leaked images, but that monster doesn’t look all that amazing. And neither monster is a classic Toho monster of old reimagined into this new ‘verse. So what exactly does this movie bring to the table?

I guess I’ll find out when I see it in theaters on March 29!

Pink Godzilla is Coming

It’s a good time to be a Godzilla fan. I just saw Godzilla Minus One this weekend, and it was great! Awesome monster stuff, and a very touching human story. I teared up in the end! And then we’ve got Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, which is a really fun show about the Monsterverse. They managed to pull that off!

And now we’ve got the first trailer for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

It looks pretty crazy. These new Godzilla and Kong films have really gone off the rails since the more grounded first film in 2014. And we used up the likes of Mothra, Rodan and Ghidorah ages ago (still waiting on my fave, Anguirus!). So I guess they’re going to team up and take on a balding orangutan villain in Middle Earth? I suppose we’ll see!

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire comes to theaters on April 12!

Let’s Get All Godzilla Up in Here!

Godzilla Minus One comes out in America in early December, and the Toho Company is really ramping up the awesomeness. The movie looks great and looks to be very cool. You can see for yourself with this new trailer.

Beyond that trailer, they’ve also produced a 10-minute YouTube short about Godzilla fighting Megalon. Because why the hell not?! They’ve got this CGI Godzilla model, why not put him to good use and stomp Megalon? There are some rumors I’ve seen online that Godzilla will fight another monster in Minus One, but we don’t have proof of that yet — or at least I don’t. So enjoy Godzilla fighting Megalon!

And then we can all enjoy Godzilla Minus One in a month…or earlier, if you already live in Japan.
