All that talk about the Big G being a "man in a suit" is just a bunch of bullshit, baby...

I just recently checked out the original movie thanks to you Patrick, and I liked what I saw so I moved onto the Showa Godzilla Versus Mechagodzilla, I now hunger for more Kaijuu, any recommendations?

"1) The radioactive material stored this nuclear reactor-like 'uranium pouch' goes critical, generating energy. 2) Air pressure from the lungs forces this energy into the trachea. 3) The energy is then exhaled."
It's THAT simple.

Not enough information. Why doesn't it go through the intestines and out through his ass? Wouldn't he at least leave depleted uranium piles along the way?

Wait, didn't Big-G have a second brain in his ass? I guess it just evolved with the Millennium series.

Robert, some of my favorite Showa G-films are The Terror of Mechagodzilla, Godzilla vs. Gigan, and King Kong vs. Godzilla.
If you are willing to go off the G-reservation, try Gamera (1965), War of the Gargantuas, and Latitude Zero.

They have never dissected Big G before, on account of him being so manly and helpful to Japan.
The man in the suit thing? A pale replica of the sheer manliness that is Big G.

I thought there was "a little Godzilla" in all of us? i have a little uranium belly too? (after eating spicy mexican)
Man in suit? How dare you sir!
(off topic - the US is finally getting proper releases for Rodan and WOTG - yeah, my wife will love the news (sarcasm - in reality it brings her sheer embarrassment - oh well)

The Japanese R2 of Rodan is one of my favorite ever DVDs. The Eastmancolor transfer is eye-popping amazing. The Golden Age of Toho ended for me when they changed film stock. I really hope they don't fuck it up!
