The time Rodan pooped on Godzilla

 Remember that glorious day, years ago, when the King of the Monsters was shat upon by everyone's favorite mutated Pteranadon? (It's here on this very blog, believe it or not) Well, here are just some of the out-takes from that hilarious event. Enjoy!

Red carpet bonus: Shodaigoji


A special one from the red carpet shoot for you guys: shodaigoji '54, looking pretty badass in charcoal gray! It just goes to show how serious a movie Gojira was when it came out. Little wonder that this guy's career took off like it did.

A buddy pic with John Stamos could be a huge hit, don't you think? Or maybe Maisie Williams?

Kaiju on the red carpet!

WOW...looks like somebody in L.A. is holding red carpet events, even in spite of the virus-fueled entertainment lockdown. A bunch of our favorite kaiju recently hit the step-and-repeat for a promotional event for this blog, somewhere in Hollywood! It was great to see Godzilla '54, Gamera, Moguera and even unexpected guest Lunamaria from "Gundam Seed" make it down. Here's a sampling from the carpet:

 


Shodaigoji and Kingugoji getting all chummy.


Gaiking, looking pretty badass in the new armor.


King Ghidorah.


Mechagodzilla head shot.


Kingugoji reacting to fans. He looks to be having a good time.



Gamera, the Guardian of the Carpet.



Shodaigoji, not looking happy at this photographer.


Moguera.


Lunamaria Hawke from Gundam Seed.


OMG, they're doing the shie.

No respect for the King


Are any more words really necessary? 😂


Actually, one wonders why Toho never allowed Rodan to do this in the first place.

Meet The Kaiju!



You saw them on Ed Sullivan! Fresh from Osaka (the Liverpool of Japan!!) comes the biggest thing since the Super Famicom—it’s the Fabu Fouru, The Kaiju!

Johnzilla: the moody, nuclear-powered leader of the group.
Georgera: the innovative, Eastern-looking turtle guitarist.
King Paulorah: The cute one(s) on the bass.
Mecha-Ringo: the drummer that hits harder than a plasma grenade, but who still wants peace and love.


SONG TITLES: I Saw Titanosaurus Standing There, I Want To Hold Your Oxygen Destroyer, All I’ve Got To Do (Is Crush Tokyo), All My Stomping, I Wanna Squish Your Man, Till There Was Dr. Yamane, Mothra Won’t Be Long, Little Super-X

Bonus track: This Boy (is wearing tiny shorts that are really creeping the rest of us out)


See them in 2021 on tour with the Rolling Ultramen,, and Jerry & the Ladyguardmakers!

Tarantino has some big kaiju fans


Well, who else did you think these two guys would be showing props to? Sergio Leone, maybe?

Someone needs to get on the line to Quentin and let him know that his next film has to be a kaiju one. In fact, how about a remake of True Romance, with these two? We think you'll agree that it's the only logical way forward for him, cinematically.

One more from the Boulevard!


The King of the Monsters is now also the King of Media Stunts! We can't remember the last time a celeb had so much fun with their star on the Walk Of Fame...of course, that might be at least partly due to the current absence of guys in superhero costumes on the Boulevard.

Way to go, big guy, way to go! Just don't let it go to your head. Remember, your brain is about the size of a walnut (at least, according to King Kong vs. Godzilla), so that could create problems.

Godzilla does Benny Hill



Why are we amused so easily...

😂😂😂

Be sure to make the video full-screen! Or, watch it on YouTube, here:

Behind the scenes on Hollywood Boulevard: FANS!



Look what happened during the Godzilla shoot on Hollywood Boulevard...we had fans come buy, asking to take pictures with the Big Guy!


Yes, we're serious! This really happened on a Sunday morning on the Walk Of Fame, some weeks ago.


Yeah, we sometimes ask people if they want to pose with the kaiju, but rarely do we have people coming up and asking us! Trust us, we're flattered!


You'll notice how deserted Hollywood Boulevard is during the lockdown.


And unlike the other guys in costume normally on the Boulevard, he doesn't charge a thing! 😆

Godzilla: the biggest star on the Boulevard



"Yeah, baby--look at it! Check it out! Yep, that's me, folks! Not Mothra, or Baragon, or even Minilla--me, the Big G! How many other kaiju have a star on the Boulevard? Go one, tell me. Tell me. What's that you say? None? CORRECT!"

"Damn, I'm hot! 66 years and I'm just getting started, baby! WHOOOOO!"

The kaiju version of..."The Notebook"???



OK, we definitely weren't expecting this. A bunch of pictures got released today that apparently came from the set of what's being called the Japanese version of the beloved romantic tragedy film "The Notebook". Except it stars kaiju, and takes place in Southern California. And who's in it but our old friends Godzilla and King Ghidorah.


From the looks of the background, it appears that the movie is being shot somewhere in Elysian Park in L.A. If genuine, this is definitely the most unusual twist ever put on a monster flick.


There are obviously a lot of questions surrounding this apparent project. For starters, just what kind of love story is this? Is it a pairing, or a foursome? Is it a transgender tokusatsu one, a LGBTQ kaiju one, or what? King Ghidorah has never been 100% straight (if you'll forgive the pun) about their sexuality in the press, so this could get quite interesting.


BTW, don't go looking for the swing these two were chumming it up on. Word says that it was destroyed during production when Godzilla accidentally let fly a nuclear pulse. That's some awfully potent gas you've got, big guy.


No word yet on any release date, but they're no doubt looking for some buzz at Cannes. We of course will keep you posted.

Another day in glamorous Hollywood




Ah, Hollywood Boulevard. Home to the Roosevelt Hotel, the Chinese Theater, and the Walk of Fame. Thanks to the coronavirus causing everyone to stay in, the famous street is now freer from the smell of urine than it has been for decades. So naturally, it's prime time for a pair of famous kaiju to stroll through town without getting mobbed by fans.

Then again, it's also possible that they were mistaken for one of those superhero guys who prowl the Boulevard for $5 pics with tourists.

Any guess as to whose star they're paying respects to?

Godzilla's New Hit Album



What do Paris Hilton, Don Johnson, William Shatner, Jennifer Love Hewitt and now Godzilla all have in common? They’re all celebrities who’ve made the sometimes dubious choice of recording music albums on the side. The Big G recently joined this very exclusive(?) club with his new release, "Godzilla Swings to the Capitol Hits". As you can see, the release party was quite something. Here are some notes from the album's press release:

"First, Jack Webb tried a little tenderness…

Then, Leonard Nimoy sang the story of Bilbo Baggins…

And then, Bruce Willis gave us the Return of Bruno...

Now comes the biggest and baddest star to ever stand behind the mike…GODZILLA!

The King of the Monsters is now the King of Swing! Godzilla destroys the competition with this stellar new  album from Capitol!

It’s the collection of monster hits you never knew you needed!"


FULL TRACK LISTING: Meet Me In Tokyo, I’ll Stomp All Over You, Tsuburaya Shuffle, I’ll Set The World On Fire, You’re Atomic Baby, I’m Crushed By Your Love (duet with Raymond Burr), Radioactive Monday, Look Out Below, Geiger Counter Blues, March Of The Groovy Monsters, See You On Planet X, Fuji Don’t Leave Me, Swimming In The Big Pool, Screeeonnnk Las Vegas, Go Away Gigan, Oh Banana Oil, I’m In Love With You Dr. Serizawa
