I guess this makes Godzilla the newest Disney princess!

Where's #Godzilla when you need him?
Inspired by smoldering rage and the 1968 #Godzilla classic "Destroy All Monsters" (but you knew that)
I put this on a LOT of tshirt colors, but lemme know if you'd like it on another kind of garment.
And yeah, stickers are on the way.

I do have a Godzilla shaped hole in my heart this Saturday.
(You watch a movie a week for three quarters of a year, then one day they're... just gone)
#Godzilla vs. #LosAngeles is a one-shot #ComicBook by #IDWPublishing scheduled for the end of this month. 100% of proceeds will be donated to #BINC the Book Industry Charitable Foundation, and their response to the horrific wildfires earlier this year.
So I’m at a pizza place that has pinball machines. Naturally I had to pick the #godzilla one and get a photo for my #monsterdon peeps.
Been a few weeks, but here's a new post on the ol' blog (and not the one I accidentally deleted last night!), wherein I use a deeply nerdy Godzilla discussion as a launchpad for a discussion on narrative theology.

And with a bit of reflection, maybe Godzilla X Kong isn’t such a bad representation of the Godzilla series as a whole.
It isn’t a perfect film, far from it. Just like it isn’t a perfect series. There are only a handful of truly great films, whilst most are only mildly enjoyable with amazing bits occurring sporadically.
But Godzilla is a great character because he’s adaptable and enduring across all these stories. He can be pushed too far (hello, Godzilla 1998) so it no longer works. But he can also be shockingly relevant to our times when used correctly.
And that’s why I’ve watched 40 weeks of men-in-suits knocking over miniature buildings.
That’s it for me and the big lizard for a while. Thanks for reading along if you did.
(Rest assured, when a trailer appears for a new film, I *will* go bananas.)
Alright, so I hoped to see this film in a new light, but unfortunately it didn’t really happen.
Definitely loved some parts, but too all over the place for me really to care. I think Kong’s story resonates, but Godzilla’s involvement feels like an afterthought.
Not a franchise-killer (especially when it made so much sense much money), but a refocussing next film would help.
I just saw some sneaky CGI animator murder a camel*.
