09.30.2013: Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla Daikaiju Discussion
Rachel, Bryan, Martin, Jeff & Kyle talk mechanical monsters in the newest episode of the Kaijucast!
Ugh, I guess I should start out by saying “It’s still September in Hawaii!”
…Welcome to another installment of the Kaijucast – episode 93, to be exact and squeaking in just before the world’s calendars flip to October!
We are talking about the 1974 Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla this month. This film was one of the first Godzilla films I had ever seen and I think it holds a fairly nostalgic spot in my heart and it’s pretty obvious that the rest of the crew likes this one too. We had a really great response to this film from the listeners, but I was some surprised at some of the negativity this film garnered. Don’t get me wrong, there was a lot of love, too.
MUSIC:
1. King Kong by The Jimmy Castor Bunch (1973)
2. Knifehead by Beauty & The Liquidmen (2013)
3. Aliens Mechagodzilla by Heavy Melody Music from Godzilla Unleashed (2007)
4. King Seesar Appears by Masaru Satoh from Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (1974)
5. Defeat Mechagodzilla by Beru-Bera Lin from Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (1974)

DAIKAIJU DISCUSSION:
Because I’m heading to Japan at the end of October, there is NO homework and consequently no discussion for October. Don’t worry, we will still post two episodes, but all of you are off the hook for the next six weeks. Maybe you can use that time to work on an awesome Godzilla/kaiju-related halloween costume!
