Negadon is a pretty cool movie in my opinion. Also regarding those Godzilla rumours I REALLY hope those Bloody Disgusting rumours aren’t true partly due to the fact BD pretty much suck.
They suck so bad they make Jason SMith’s performace as Casey Oscar worthy!
We’re gonna ride our bicycles~
OOoh yeah. Aww yeah, that’s the stuff. WOO! I needed my fix man, I was ready to start flippin’ tables and throw some chairs man.
I really enjoy listening to your podcast. I’m a complete newbie when it comes to tokusatsu, but listening to you get deep with it helps me find things to watch. You got me to watch Japanese Spiderman, which is probably the greatest/funniest thing I’ve ever seen.
So yeah, I’m an R5 fan girl. One of many, I assume.
Oddly enough, I actually was riding my bicycle when I started listening to this episode.
Awesome episode! You’ve totally turned me on to a New Age of Monster Movies! Woo Hoo!
