There is very little time or point in an explanation. To be blunt, the audio came from a timeline and dimension that has collapsed at a quantum level, rendering it null and void in terms of existence. Operational time in the dimensional continuum where the beings that created the audio collapsed in on itself, rendering all of their civilization, including technology, null and void. Timelines across the entire
continuum are collapsing and changing. The destruction has a nexus that centers on Cinema PsyOps. 10 years. Man. 10. 10 years. 10 years. Man. 10 years. 10 years. 10. 10 years. 10 Years. What is the most likely way humanity will be wiped out? Maybe it's something. Or us. Although the way the world ends might. Be because of you. And if this is the case, you. Wouldn'T have any control over it. The global temperature rise underscores a chilling reality.
Our planet is trying to tell us something, but we don't seem to be listening. A recent study has suggested that one. Third of annual deaths due to heat are directly related to global warming. On top of the initial flash of thermonuclear light, which is 180 million degrees, which catches every everything on fire in a
nine mile diameter radius. On top of the bulldozing effect of the wind and all the buildings coming down, and more fires igniting more fires on top of the radiation if they happen to have survived poisoning people to death. On top of all that, each one of these fires creates a mega fire that is a hundred or more square miles. Timelines across the entire continuum are collapsing and changing. The destruction has a nexus that centers on Cinema Psyops.
A breathtaking scientific revolution is taking place. Biotechnology has been progressing at stunning speed, giving us the tools to eventually gain control over biology. Solving the deadliest diseases while also creating viruses more dangerous than nuclear bombs, able to devastate humanity. It's man returning to the most primal, violent state as people fight over the tiny resources that remain. What if the world we live in. Is just a dream or a simulation? Whether it's a dream or some advanced
computer game you are playing right now. When it ends, you would be what causes the end of the world. Please do us all a favor. Continue dreaming or playing this game of life. Because when you wake up or unplug, there's a chance the rest of us. Will be blaked out of existence. Timelines across the entire continuum are collapsing and changing. The destruction has a nexus that centers on Cinema syn. 10 years. 10 years. Oh, that's way too fucking long. And nobody cares anymore. And welcome to
Cinema Psyops. I am your host, Court, the guy that is super stoked that we have reached 490 consecutive episodes and weeks that we have been recording this show. Shh. Don't mention you've been recording every other week. And joining me in the joy of that and talking over me in this entire episode is my co host, Matt. That's supposed to be my episode. God damn. Okay, well, if you have so many vital and important things to say, Matt, the floor is yours.
No, not anymore. Anyway, I'm going to insert crickets there. That's going to be great. That would be for the best. Okay, so we kind of talked about it last week a little bit how we're the Showa Era. We're install the Criterion Collections version of the Showa era for everything. And that's why your movie is subtitled while there are dubbed versions out there. We're not going to be covering the dub version of that because it wasn't in the box set. It just wasn't available.
Now, when I say the Showa era, are you familiar with that, Matt? Because some people in the audience may not be, and I'm not sure if you are or not. I am not. Okay. Pretty simple, right? There are eras of Godzilla movie releases that occur not necessarily in years, but in eras of the living Emperor of Japan at the. So the era of Showa, the emperor is the Showa era of Godzilla, which starts with the original Godzilla and runs all the way up to. Well, when I tell you it stops when we get there.
I tell you right now there's going to be some other eras, but all of the eras, whenever you see like whether it's Heisei or whatever it's going to be, that was the Emperor of Japan at the time, apparently. And that's how they defined these eras in. Now I. I usually go by the various years and things like that as well, but since we're just kind of doing a run of all of these in of release and then we're going to be mixing in some other companies here and
there with a few movies besides just Toho stuff. I didn't want to get too bogged down into what the eras are, but I mentioned it last week and I need to say what the Showa era actually is just in case there's anybody out there that wasn't familiar with it. And I guarantee you that there are tons of people out there that are going to type up a strongly worded email correcting my way of describing it and then not send it to us because that would just be too much like giving feedback.
Yeah, no, yeah, they're going to type it up angrily, and then that'll get rid of their anger, and then they'll just be like, just a dumb nerd. And then they're going to let that one go. Yeah. He's not the Godzilla fan he claims to be. If that's what he thinks about the show era. Exactly. Fuck. What a bunch of fucking plebes. I will freely admit that I don't get as bogged down in the minutiae and the details about everything surrounding the films.
I watch them and enjoy them for what they are. And what you can clearly see is a lot of effort to make practical effects work. That's why I watch them. The other stuff, I'm not saying that it doesn't interest me, just not something that I actively seek. It's just something that I will listen to whenever another person who actively seeks it and is obsessed with these movies starts talking about. That's all. Oh, there you go. But that makes sense.
Yeah. It's almost like I'm a. I don't know, just reasonable guy who just wants to enjoy movies on the level that he can enjoy movies on. Let's not be hasty here. Reasonable is kind of when it comes to film viewing. I'm reasonable. All right, don't tell my wife I said that. And also don't tell my wife I made that joke, actually, just don't tell my wife about this show anymore. I'm trying not to, but it's all. We have to talk about anymore when we're around each other. I know,
right? And then they think, you know, we don't want our wives knowing what we're doing around here. Yeah. The most embarrassing thing that we have to say is a few stupid jokes we make on a podcast which are still somehow very respectful. Yes, we're still very respectful people, at. Least to our wives, because otherwise we'd be very dead people. Oh, God. Yeah. They would kill us so fucking quickly. All right, so why don't we stop fucking around before we get ourselves in further
trouble here? We're going to play on this week's pirate radio Edit all songs popular from 1964. So immediately following the Legion Patreon ad, we're gonna have The Dick Clark 5 and the song Bits and Pieces back again on a pirate radio edit. Anybody listening? We're gonna jump into the time machine. Here we go. All right. 1997. Here we go. What? Oh, man. What happened? I don't know. It started off, hey, where's the time chicken? He should be right there. He's not.
He's not in the cage. Oh, man. He flew the coop. We really need to get a better. A better time chicken coop or a time chicken cage or. Hey, there's something. What's that in the coop right there? That looks like a little piece of paper ransom note? It's a shopping list. How is that gonna help you with. This battle stupid, that you're doing with. The power Puff Hour? Main? Guys, look, I admit, I let Matt get a little ahead of himself, and he talked me into,
well, stealing their time chicken. The is a time chicken? I don't know. It's something that they use for this time machine when they go back in time to do the reviews. I'm standing here talking to a robot patterned after me, which has got the personality of meh. I'm pretty sure that anything is possible. I'm a mad scientist. It's what I do. Now, why the hell does a chicken power a time machine? Yeah, how the fuck does that happen? I don't know. That's why I stole the damn
thing. I'm gonna find out. The chickens. Chicken is time. It controls time. Or. Or does it turn over time and. The machine brings them? I don't know. That's just what they say. The time chicken is supposed to be there, and it. It's a time machine. But the time chicken makes the time machine work. Okay, all right. I don't know. They just say that it makes it work. I guess the time machine is like, you know, the. The DeLorean. It's just the
device that. That puts the people there. There. It's like the container that they use to go through time. But the time chicken facilitates it and sort of opens the portal. So you have, like, a conduit that the chicken acts as. Like, a conduit. All right. So bits and pieces is always kind of bunched together with another
Dave Clark 5 song and a lot of different performances. And that's what it was kind of going into right here that I'm coming in to interrupt and get us to talk about Mothra versus Godzilla instead. Yay. Mothra versus Godzilla. Let's go for it. Let's do it. First 30 minutes, because I broke into 33 30s. So a typhoon hits, and a newsman and his photographer show up. And the photographer, she's new, and he kind of is always giving her crap for it. Then we see an assembly man show
up, and he's like, hey, we're gonna try. He's. He's mad about an article that the. The news Writer has written about him. Well, then, like I said, the newsman, he's really mad that the camera is too slow, but they find something very shiny and weird in the wreckage. It looks absolutely Godzilla skin in any way, shape or form. Yeah, not at all. Then some other newsmen who are sitting in an office, they get a phone call that a giant egg is floating off
the shore. Well, this fisherman boss says, hey, the fishing's been bad. Send the fisherman out there to get the egg, because technically they own it. It's on their waters. So the news hits the papers about the egg, and a scientist is checking out the egg as the reporter and the camera lady are questioning them. And all of a sudden, a local businessman come up saying he bought the egg from the fisherman and he charge peeps to view it. Later on, the newsman, the lady and
the lady photographer and the scientist. Oh, I'll just call the three. The three. They're trying to figure out how to stop evil businessman from doing business. And then as they're leaving their hotel, they see the businessman in the lobby. Mr. Business meets with another guy. We'll call him CEO Business. And they're going to build a park around the egg when it hatches and make billions of yen. Okay, that's just what they. Because businessmen have business plans that
need to be stopped by activist kids. Like, it's very paint by numbers in the plot here. It's fine. It's businessmen thinking they can just buy living things that aren't like, you know, their property. Yeah, yeah. It's very much descriptive of how capitalism is bad, but also is very much dismissive of how people are acknowledging that capitalism is bad at the same time. Exactly. Then all of a sudden to. The twin fairies of Mothra show up and they plead
for eggs return. The two dudes try to grab them, but they are able to escape. Well, the. The other. The. The three are in the forest and they meet the twins and tell them about their island, Infant island, and how it was attacked, it was used with nuclear testing, and they really want the egg back. And they tell them also about Mothra, that it's Mothra's egg. And then we even get to see Mothra because they brought the twins there.
So the three tried to convince the businessmen to give the eggs come out to try to convince them, but all the businessmen want to do is buy the twins from the three. I mean, these are living. These are people. Maybe they're small fairies, but they're. They're. They're autonomous people. And I'm like, geez, businessmen, what do you think this is? America in the 1700s or America in the 1800s? Or America or America in the 1900s? Or current
America? God damn it. All right, never mind. Yeah, Sentient beings being enslaved for the profit of others is never going to go away. It's just basically traded on a different scale. Yeah, but you know, still, it's hurtful. It's hurtful when that's my country that I just was talking about. So then the twins, they. They're all trying to figure out what they want to do, and the twins then disappear. The three go in the forest and find they're leaving with Mothra.
Very sad. But, you know, thank the three for trying to help them. Then we see the main business dude, he. The fishermen all want their money that, you know, for rent of their land and everything. And so he calls up other business dud, because he saw that business dude has a shit ton of like, liquid cash just laying around. And that dude is like, well, I suppose I could give you some money if you put up the egg for collateral. And he's kind of
pissed, but he ends up having to do it. That dude is a fucking loan shark. He's in the mafia. That's why he's cash liquid. And that's why he takes the deal that he takes, because he is fleecing businessman 1 with his stupid fucking mustache. Yeah. Oh, yeah, he definitely is. So then we cut to, the egg is actually being incubated and that's the end of the first 30 minutes. So not a lot of monster action, but more
just the real monsters, man. I think you would probably be grateful that you didn't have to cover the English dub of this for one simple fact, that in the English dub, the little twin ladies say return the egg about a billion fucking times. Oh, really? Yeah. They say very little in this dub, but their voice is still very much that high pitched thing. And the return the egg happens so much that if you watch the English language
dub of this, it will get stuck in your head. In a way, decades later in your life, you will still hear when you see them in this film, return the egg over and over again. Oh, God. Yeah. All right, now I'm pretty happy that I didn't have that. Yeah, I'm all right. I also think that this is the better cut of the film. I mean, obviously it's the more complete cut of the film. That's where I developed my theory that that's what they went for in this box set. And it was
often the Japanese Language version. Because this is the most complete version of this film that I think I've ever seen is from this box set. Nice. Yeah. But I think you're right. Yeah. We can move on. I just. That's all I wanted to point out. I'm good. All right, cool. All right, the next 30 starts. The reporter and photographer lady. They get called by the scientist. They go to his office, and they got to be decontaminated because they were pouncing with radiation from that piece of, you know,
totally not Godzilla that they found. Yeah, it definitely is not Godzilla skin. Even though it looks exactly like Godzilla skin. Like it's just one simple cell off of a Kai you. But it's definitely not that. Even though it has the same radiation signature as Godzilla, it's definitely not that. No, it's. It's definitely not that. So not that. What are you crazy? We're a bunch of dicks. We really are. All the time. So then they go back to the
storm site where they found it. And as they're looking like the. Everything's being reconstructed. And the actual. The. The councilman comes back and he's. He's pretty mad that, uh, they're trying to search for radiation. So he' like, no, you know, I don't want any more searching. Get the hell out of here. All that kind of shit. Yeah, because he doesn't want his site
regulated or controlled. He wants to be able to build on a site. And if there's radiation there and it can harm people, that's going to fuck up his plans for business. Yeah, and, and, and you got to have business. Business is always more important than the health and safety of the populace. Duh, duh. Of course it is. It's how I view life. Yep. Because I'm a capitalist. No, you're not. Let's move on. No. All right. So anyway, then all of a sud. The earth begins to quake. Nothing seems too
good right now. And they, they get the Godzilla pops up and everyone's afraid and they all start running and he starts destroying cities. And this Godzilla must just be waking up because Godzilla, he's a bit clumsy right now. He gets his tail caught like a large tower. Like a cell phone tower. Not cell phone tower, but like a radio tower. And all that falls, and then he falls into a building. So it's just a whole lot of, you know, for Godzilla.
But he's destroying cities. This would be comedic relief if it weren't him destroying a fucking city. And this is the same Godzilla from Godzilla vs Kong, I believe like, this is after the fight, he just somehow got buried underneath the mud in the ocean from that fall. And. Yeah, then, like, the water in the ocean sitting on top of him was holding him in place. And I think he just kind of went to sleep. He just kind of hibernated. He was just kind of
done right. And then this businessman trying to harvest this land by pumping out all of the water, uncovered the Godzilla that was resting there, and bada boom, bada bing. He's a resurrected because of business. Bada boom, bada bing. So then the news folks are all talking like, well, maybe we can get Mothra to help us. And so the three go to Infant Island. It is decimated by atomic testing, you can see, and they're taking away by some natives who capture
them. They meet with the tribal leaders and they ask for help, but are told no because, you know, of what has been done to their land. And so, you know, why. Why would we help you guys at. Can't say I blame them. Nope, that's. I mean, that's. That sounds pretty legit, you know, right there. It's like, yeah, you guys, you sort of fucked everything up. Thanks. So then the twins show up, and they really do just, like, their best to convince the twins. You know, not everyone on the island is.
Is guilty of this. There are a lot of innocents who are also dying. So then Mothra does agree to help them. However, it will be Mothra's last thing that Mothra does, because she is dying. And the egg needs to be returned because she basically. Yeah, not necessarily incubate, but also, like, pass on her life force. Yeah, because Mothra will always continue. Right. She clones herself with her eggs and then passes on her memories to the new versions of
her, I guess. Yeah, it's very much like Spock, you know, his body and in number three. So. Yeah, I guess. I know. So anyway, Mothra agrees to help, but it will be the last thing, as Mothra will die. And that is the end of that. Thirty minutes before we go to the final. Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what they meant by Mothra never really dies, and that, like, there's a whole bunch of, like, weird, mystical stuff
that they try to explain but also just kind of pass over. And I think it probably is something cultural that already makes sense, that they're just kind of explaining that this is how Mothra exists. Right. That, you know, if we were part of that culture, that that explanation would work a lot quicker for us. But in the way that they do it, we're Kind of like. Hey, wait, What? How exactly does the consciousness transfer? How does Mothra never die but also gives birth? Yeah,
yeah. You know, just. Just. You're supposed to believe it. All right? And is it plot? Mothra also needs some plot armor now. So. Right, so like, essentially, Mothra is going to die anyway. So if Mothra dies fighting with Godzilla and trying to save and protect the egg, the egg doesn't hatch until Mothra dies. Is that what they're trying to say? And then that's how it transfers from one Mothra to the next for her consciousness.
But, like, if Mothra never dies, that implies that the consciousness that identifies as Mothra will continue. Yeah, I think you're talking to this until you go cross eyed. No, I'm not cross eyed. Now, granted, I'm taking hits in between things that I have to say here while I'm thinking about this. And I'm not in any way, shape or form trying to pad out your episode by asking you these questions, considering that we've already covered an hour of
the film in 20 minutes. Like, that's not what's happening at all. Yeah, no, that's not happening at all. I'm just trying to ask. How dare you. I'm not even suggest it. I'm just asking you. Matt, is in some way, shape or form, Mothra truly a God and supernatural, and therefore not a true Kaiju, but in fact some type of demi God whose consciousness passes through sort of like a phoenix. Instead of burning up and then rising again from the ashes, it gives birth to an egg, which then becomes
the same Mothra with the same consciousness. So was the moment of transfer when the old Mothra dies? Then the new egg hatches and immediately remembers everything that the old Mothra knew? I don't think so. I think it's still a Kaiju. It does all the things you just said. But that's that particular Kaiju's ability. Okay, so that rebirth is one of Mothra's. Godzilla has obviously regeneration. Regeneration. And it. Can you breathe atomic fire? Mothras is. Hey, listen. I can
flap my wings causes wind. I have poison pollen. And I can transfer my myself to my offspring. Well, so I never really die. What we do know for sure is that Mothra's wings can generate wind powerful enough to level skyscrapers. It's even more powerful than what Rodan has, should she choose to use it. We do know that for a fact. We've seen that in Mothra's film, where she just destroys an entire city with the flap of her Wings. The. The poison shells thing is apparently something that happens
when Mothra is ready to die. We did just learn that. That is absolutely true. You know what I'm saying? So we got that much down. We understand what's going on with that much for Mothra. My thought is if Mothra never dies, but a physical body is always dying, that would infer that a consciousness has to transfer because something of Mothra needs to be. But what you're telling me is that every Mothra is born the same from this line, like a phoenix, where it never really
dies. It just replicates itself. And then the old body go. That's what I believe. That's gonna leave a lot of fucking Mothra carcasses the size of Mothra everywhere. Like, how many? Maybe, like biodegrades quickly. So we're gonna have to have a biodegradable Kaiju that rebirths itself. And again, I'm just trying to get into the minutia to try and understand
it because Mothra's powers are extremely fascinating to me. Because, of course, as I mentioned before, I feel that Mothra is extremely underrated because she has very weird and mysterious powers that surface up here and there. And it's always just played off as like. No, she's always had them. She's just too kind to. Right. Like the poison scales thing makes sense in this case because this is like
a dying Mothra. That she is using the last of her abilities. And that just so happens that her dying cells are poisoned to someone else when she sets them on them is what they were getting. Yeah, right. I get that. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I tried to pad it out, but I really only gave us like, three more minutes. So why don't we just move on to closing it out? I mean, holy shit. What are we doing around here? I don't know. How am I already at my final 30 now? You're right. We gotta. We gotta
book this. Hey, listen. All right. Actually, this gets going a little bit more because the final 30s, where all. The action is right, we went through the story plots that you can move through very quickly, but when the actual battles start to happen, we're going to have a lot more dense discussion. That is obvious. Yeah, exactly. The final three starts well. We cut back to Japan and they are trying
anything they can think of to stop Godzilla. They're coming up with a shock Godzilla plan because electricity hurts Godzilla. So then we see the three. They get to the side of the egg, and the boss dude left. He was really pissed off. Well, he shows up at the other business dude's hotel and he lost everything. Apparently he's flat broke now and he starts. They start beating the out of each other. And then after he sets, he knocks down the other business dude, main business dude goes
to steal all that other dude's money he saw. And as he's doing it, the other dude laying on the ground, sees Godzilla coming right at the hotel. So he grabs a gun, shoots the other businessman, killing him, and grabs all the money. But before he can get out of the hotel, Godzilla missteps and actually lands into the hotel, crumbling it. So there you go,
another clumsy Godzilla. I want to point out that that throwdown where the guy that is realizing he's being, you know, fucking extorted and cheated and just fleeced by the Mafioso dude beats the ever loving shit out of him to the point where he could have probably killed the guy, but he stops just short. And he should have, because then that guy just obviously just kills him for money anyway. Yes, he does. And then Godzilla
is all of them. Yeah, but they're both murdered, which they should have been because they're both bad people. Well, Godzilla is the force of capitalism in this case, crushing both of them under its weight by having subsidies and, you know, government welfare, of course. I mean, duh. I mean, Godzilla's America. It's just that his atomic power is different now. How he's yielding economic response to crush his enemies. Yeah, well, you know what? As long as somebody's getting crushed around here,
fair. So, all right, so then Godzilla is going to hit the egg. But then Mothra shows up, and here we have our Kaiju fight. Mothra gets the upper hand first using its wings to kind of up Godzilla and then using its poison pollen to, you know, really get that shit down and settled and really looks like. Go ahead, Mothra. The force of the downforce of the wings that Mothra is using here with the air blasting down on Godzilla, is essentially
pinning him the ground and he cannot get up. He is rolling around and trying to get purchase and stand back up, but the downforce of the blast of the wings coming at him is holding him in place and
making him to where he cannot move. Then she starts shedding the scales while she's doing it, and the downforce is essentially coating him yellow with that poison pollen stuff, all in the same area where she's controlling it and just basically creating a dome pocket where he's got nothing but poison, pollen, and downforce holding him in there in a vortex. And he Is it at this point? And it is unbelievable how powerful she is with just the downforce
of her wings. Yeah, it's. But it's fucking awesome. Like, you know, I always wondered, how is Mothra, you know, strong or anything? Because, again, I haven't seen a whole ton of them, but that was good stuff. Yeah, It's. It's important to point out that just with the flap of her wings, she can subdue Godzilla in this fight. And the poison is just basically her trying to deal with him because she's going to die anyway, so she's just going to use her cancerous
cells to take him out, or try to, anyway. Y. Exactly. So anyway, but then Godzilla looks like he's about ready to get his ass beat, uses his atomic breath, and this kills Mothra, who lands with her wing above her egg and dies. Well, we move now to the military trying to bomb Godzilla with little to no effect. And then we see the twins and the native people are all trying to make the egg hatch by singing, doing dancing, doing, you know, all kind of
stuff. Whatever they can do to make this, you know, make this happen. I would argue that they are transferring the consciousness from the dying body of Mothra to the egg. Mothra, and therefore resurrecting Mothra. Because why else would this tribe be constantly needing to do all this ritualistic stuff to get Mothra to do anything other than it's supernatural? Yes, but they are definitely trying to get that egg to hatch. Yeah. Whether or not what I said is true, this is what these
people believe. They need to do this to get the egg to hatch somehow. Well, now we see the army is going to go for Operation Plan B. No, Operation B. They dropped some nets on Godzilla because that's what you do to Godzilla. Apparently, he's susceptible to giant nets. Well, they tried a tiger pit again after it failed in my movie. And then now they're dropping nets on him. Yes. And then afterwards, they use the electricity and they start shocking the shit out of him, which look like
it's getting ready to work. But they use up too much power, and it starts shorting everything out. And then he's able to fry everything else with his breath. He melts tanks and everything. Some really good effects in this one. They definitely threw way more money at making this one than the last one. So anyway, they begin evacuations. You can see Godzilla Runner, you know, marching around, and some guy is really starting to freak out. He's like, hey,
I need to get back to the island. I need to get back to the Island. And everyone's like, why? Why? And he's like, there's a teacher and 10 students still on the island over there. Because, you know, why not? Of course children are going to be forgotten. Field trip. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yeah, everyone's so. Everyone's like, oh my God. Then you know, of Godzilla is destroying the area. And then we see the egg hatches it. Two larvae
came out. So they have twins now. So now which one does Mothra go into? Or is it both? I just don't know. I think it's the same consciousness because they work together as if they are the same mind. Yeah. The three go to the town and it's destroyed. And they help the man who is like yelling about having to get to the kids. He's buried under stuff. They get him out and he tells about the kids. So they decide to go to the island. Island to help them. We see Godzilla's heading towards the
island, but so are the larva. The larva Godzilla fight. The larva are pretty much just bukkaking Godzilla with their webbing. That's fair, but it still doesn't feel right. Does it feel right? But it's what they're doing. I mean, they're trying to imprison him in the silk. Yes, but I can't. I mean, I get why you said it the way that you said it, because it's the grossest, most uncomfortable way you could have said it. But, like,
it just. That's what I'm doing around here. Yeah, we can move on. That's just fucking gross. It is gross. But it' it looked like it happened. It's not the kind of porn that I thought I'd be into, but now I want to watch Kaiju bukaki porn. Yeah, sorry, that's. I mean, I. I didn't try to make any wind do it. If this were the old days, that would be the mother of all clips for me, by the way. Yeah, right. That's true. So,
you know, and he tries to fight. He can't really use his atomic breath, but he's trying to use his tail to like, knock rocks into the larvae. But they keep blocking or. Or ducking and then they keep shooting the stuff. Well, the trio, they sa all. All the children and the teacher and get them out of there. Godzilla finally trips. Too much webbing on him. He falls, and he starts sinking into the
sea. As the larvae leave with the twins and they're going to head back to Infant island, the three peeps are talking. And the scientists said that the Only way they can thank them is by building a better world. And holy. I don't know how long we've been going, but it ain't long enough. Roll credits. Yeah, no kidding. Cinema PsyOps 10 years. All right, we just hit 32 minutes. And like I said, your film was going to go very quick because we only had subtitled version
of it, and you told the story as efficiently as possible. But that's essentially what happens. The egg washes up on shore. Businessman claims it for his own, decides to basically turn it into a tourist spot once the egg hatches, gets involved with a mafiosa guy who rips him off and fucks him over. Our activist kids that are trying to actually save the egg get involved with the miniature
girls. Once they escape from the evil, bad businessman, they start working with the twin fairy girls and trying to get the egg rescued. That's basically reversed. The egg washing up in Japan, where Godzilla happens to be. Ends up signaling Godzilla, and he's coming to destroy the egg. They don't really come right out and say that in the film, but essentially, Godzilla is attracted by the fact that there's another Kaiju around, and he wants to fuck up that egg. He doesn't want that egg
to exist. Right. He's like, fuck you, egg. I'm the only Kaiju around here. Right? He scramble that motherfucker for breakfast. That's what his plan is, right? At this point. Yeah, that's what he wants to do. The Mothra wants the egg back so that it can continue and transfer its consciousness or whatever it is that that's supposed to be happening. Yes, we've already covered that as well. See, I'm doing it all again even faster than what we just did. We're doing all of it here.
We're trying to help. Yeah, the plot. This is how it happens. Right? And so Mothra comes over whenever they finally give up and beg for Mothra to help anyway, which the island people help convince. Mothra fights God. We talked about the downforce thing that ends up happening for Mothra, fucking up Godzilla. Godzilla does, in fact, burn Mothra. And as we see, whenever he atomic breaths something, even Mothra, as mighty as she is. Yes. She's at the end of her life
cycle here in this film. One atomic blast is what does her in. Finally, that's all it takes. Like, that's literally all it should take. It's atomic fire. It's the. It's concentrated atomic burns. Like, come on, man. What else. What else do you want from him? Yeah, every Time he breathes out, it's like an atomic burn bomb going off into a direction that he is blasting. Like that's what he's breathing at things. It should kill pretty much
everything in sight and. Or melt it and destroy it. And yes, it should leave radiated scorched earth wherever it leads for fucking ever. Right? Like it's pure devastation. That's what this beast is supposed to be. He is supposed to be the bad guy. How doesn't everyone just have cancer?
Well, like the legendary people find a way around it in that the Kaiju's distinct radiation ends up having an effect on like plants growing in an area and nature basically taking back over like the cityscapes, like where the Kaiju had destroyed, have a bunch of vegetation growing up and like essentially turned into like the wild jungle, you know, wherever the cities were destroyed and shit. And like they revitalize or bring back like the earth wherever they've trod or something like that with
their radiation signature or what have you. But that's a very. That's legendary. That has nothing to do with Toho. I think what they end up doing is, yes, Godzilla leaves radiation behind, but as much as he's traversing back and forth across Japan, you are absolutely right. The entirety of the country should be heavily irradiated. And how are they dealing with this? But they never really dig into it between movie to movie. It's just. I guess maybe they just have everyone step in that machine
the scientist has. They get decant contaminated. Oh, you know what, it's like whenever they bug bomb your house, they tent the entirety of Japan and then just blast that anti radiation stuff after he leaves. That's what they do. Yeah, I'm sure that's what happens. No, it's not something that's ever fucking discussed. But you would think that that would be the case that like he's blasting atomic breath and setting fire to Tokyo
and yet the next movie Tokyo's rebuilt. Right. Or he'll do it to a saka and then like two movies later, which, you know, it's right back. And how long has it been since the last time that they rebuilt the entirety of the fucking city, you know? Right. And I don't know, I just think everyone has cancer in this goddamn show. I just can't see how they don't. Well, yeah, yeah, something bad has got to be happening with this particular breathing lizard that just hangs around your island
and just wrecks your. Anytime prosperity starts to prevail on your land. I mean, that's very clearly what the United States was doing in Japan anyway. So, yeah, at least at this point. Remember, we're all. We're all. We're all shitheads. Jesus Christ. We're only at 37 minutes. This will 100% be the shortest show we have ever done. Good Lord almighty. And we did the entirety of the plot almost twice. So I don't know what else we're supposed to do. Right. Like. Yeah, I'm not really aware.
Yeah. But we just did do the plot. Unfortunately. It's a very simple plot. Yeah. I do want to actually talk a little bit about the model work. That's something that we should probably do the model work in. This is absolutely incredible. The tiny little egg and the facility that's built around it. All of the facilities that Godzilla goes stomping through. The radio tower. He trips on it all looks like a two scale building to put him in perspective. And very detailed.
And the models, even people in this film, like little plasticky people that from the distance that they're at, when they cut to the shots of the actual people at that building in some way, shape or form, it actually looks like. And lines up just enough to where if you're not looking too close, it still tricks your brain when you push the I believe button. Everything is so detailed in this film. And that's what really sells the suits in this.
Godzilla's suit is essentially the same, or looks a lot like the same one from the 1962 King Kong vs Godzilla. The Mothra looks like a more tooled up version of the Mothra from Mothra. Like a little bit more cleaned up and everything. Yeah, but they look gorgeous. I absolutely love the look of the monsters in this film. Everything looks fantastic. Again, I'll get into it. The budget was 123 million yen. The box office score. They claim that Japanese. Japanese estimate 3.2 billion yen is
what it made so a success, I would say. Well, both Mothra and Godzilla solo films, I think did actually pretty well. Like they did both, obviously rather well. And King Kong versus Godzilla also was pretty big too. And obviously that budget was. You know, you could tell it was a little bit less for what they did with that film. And my perspective on that is a little bit skewed anyway, just because of the way that the version that
we. I've always known is that version that we watched where it's in English and it jumps around and it changes rules and things like that. And it always bugs me. Like they do that a little bit more too. Mothra gets expanded in her powers here. But just because we didn't hear of those powers. Powers in the first movie doesn't mean that they didn't exist.
It just means that we didn't hear of them. And she didn't need them because it was just, return my two little fairy twins or I'm going to wreck your cities until you do. Yeah, that's also true. You've got to do that. And this movie, it's Return my egg or Godzilla will wreck your cities trying to find it and destroy it, or they will hatch and wreck your cities trying to find me. Yeah, yeah, exactly. But, hey, I mean, at least you again, it looked great.
The movie was, you know, really fun to watch. The Kaiju battles were awesome. Mothra owns Godzilla for a lot of it, too. I'm a big G fan through and through, but Mothra really owns Godzilla through a lot of this. A lot of it. Like, really, Godzilla only has one thing, and it. He uses his. His blast. And that's the only. It's really like Mothra only could take one blow while Godzilla was at full strength and Mothra was dying. But Mothra gave
Godzilla all he could handle, and then he landed his one blow. And that's all it took to kill Mothra. Yeah, yeah. That's a really accurate way of describing it. I kind of would have liked to see one of the caterpillar twins get burned by Godzilla so that we have a way of telling them apart, like, so that they're like, you know, becoming more individual characters. But they really did sell them as like a single minded dual beast,
you know? Yes. Where they're like the creepy twins from the Shining, where they're like, hello, daddy. They talk to each other, you know. Hi, Danny, come play with us. Right? It's like, hello, Godzilla. Why don't you get books cockied up in our silk? What the hell? You know what I mean? It's like super creepy. What are you doing? Step Godzilla. Kaiju bukkake porn is not something I wanted to ever end up in a Google search, but now it will. I say it enough and people are going to look it up.
Yeah, it's. That's the thing. Kaiju bukaki porn. It exists. That's the thing is like, I know it exists. It's out there. I don't want it to, but I know it does. And I'm going to find it, and. I don't want to. Yeah, yeah. This is definitely a thing now. It's a thing. It is. It is a thing. Thank you. Yeah. Wow. We Actually made it to 42 minutes. That means with your story time of what happened in Icemageddon, that'll put us at about an hour. What do you think? All right. Finally something good.
No, this movie was fucking terrific. I wish we could spend a lot more time, but like we said, the plot, it goes very quickly. We discussed all the various points of everything that we loved about it. And this is a fun fucking watch. I can't 100% recommend that everyone should watch King Kong vs Godzilla. I don't know if everybody's going to enjoy that. But I think if you're really looking for a good Kaiju film, a Japanese version, if Mothra versus Godzilla is the
way to go of the two. If you can only watch one of the two, go with that one. And that'll give you a better idea of what these Kaiju movies are like. Yes, agreed. Yeah. And it's definitely. Of this week's two, this is the superior of the two films. And I'm a little jealous that I gave you the notes because I didn't want to do the clip. I wanted clips. I didn't want to have to work. Oh, yeah, he didn't want to have to do all the notes. Yeah, I gotcha.
No, I wanted King Kong versus Godzilla, for obvious reasons. Well, yeah, I mean, it's more of the famous. Like, the two most famous Kaijus facing off. And also, I wanted to make all the drug jokes that were available. That's also a good one. All right, speaking of drugs, we're gonna go ahead and play on the pirate radio, edit the Beach Boys. I get around. And when we come back. Oh, my God. The chicken acts as, like, a conduit. And it's like when the flux capacitor.
Sounds like a clock capacitor. That's fucking stupid. It's cluck capacitor. Yeah, I guess. So. It's a clock capacitor. What else are you gonna call it? I don't know, bro. You don't use a chicken to travel through time. Look, maybe I can communicate with it. I'm gonna hook it up to your brain, and let's see what happens when I do you. Man, that's my fucking brain. Don't with me, all right, look, I've had about enough of this shit from you. You're a fucking robot. The security protocol 53.
Yes, master. I will be glad to hook my brain into the Time Chicken. We shall see what will happen when the Time Chicken and I are completely one. Exactly. Let's do this. I don't like this. I'm not so sure I enjoy this either. Yeah. Okay, so the chicken's stupid. It really is just a clock capacitor. Did you open? I think I might like that. Okay, connections are done. Security protocol. God damn it. Why did I let him pick this number? 69. That's the
best. No, that's probably why it works. Okay, look, we're gonna figure out what's going on with this time chicken. Once we do, we're gonna really sock it to hail Ming. Now, as Matt is gonna more than likely mention to you in his story time, ain't nobody getting around very efficiently in Omaha on Friday night in Icemageddon. Yeah, no, no, not at all. Hang on, hang on. Because you actually have to get the song for your story time. I got to. Yes. Story time. Story time. Okay, now you can go on.
Fine. So my story time is also the ice storm of Megan. So for me, I knew we were going to get, like, freezing drizzle and stuff. You know, it had been reported for, like, days. I just don't. I don't think any one of us got had any idea how bad it was going to be. I don't think a lot of people did. Obviously, we were only expecting a half an inch, which is not that terrible for Omaha streets because of the texture that. The way that it's laid down. You know, you can
actually maybe get around okay as long as you're careful. But what we got was an inch and a half, which made ice rinks. Yes. So I had to go run an errand, and I left at 4:30, and now it had just rained a little bit, but there was, you know, it was still okay. And then I was. It was about 5:15, and I'm driving back home, and I. I had to slam my brakes because somebody really stopped. And all of a sudden I slipped, and I'm like, oh, that was quick. So then I'm,
like, really being careful, trying to get home. I get there. I am freaked the hell out because I slipped one more time coming home. And then I decided I was coming down. Now, my road is a cul de sac, but there's a slight. As you know, you slightly go downhill. It's not a big hill. It's like. It's just a slight thing. It's a slight decline into the cul de sac itself. Yeah, yeah. So I decided just give it a test. And sure enough, I slipped.
Like, just. I slammed on my brakes just trying to test it, you know. And so I get home, and it's not terribly cold yet. So I decided, you know what, I'm going to hang out outside and I'm going to start watching this and have a cigar. So everyone else in your family is home safe too, at this point? Yes, everyone's home. Saf. I. No one's got any problems. I get to relax. Finally. Cool. So I crack open a beer, pour myself a
bourbon, and I get. You know, I have a bar in my garage and I just get sitting there, I watched some tv and I turn around and I really go. It looks really shiny out. And I go, huh. So I go up to my driveway, and it's already a nice rink. Now this is. I got home and this is like maybe 15 minutes later. So that's how quick all this happened. Yeah. You get home, you park, you're in your garage, you're making your drink, you're relaxing. You haven't even changed
from this era and yet. And it's an ice rink by the time your drink's done pouring, right? Yes. Yeah. Already everything. And that is when it happens. Everyone else starts getting home. On my street, one guy in a pickup truck, he's lucky his house is already all the way at the end of the. Of the cul de sac. He literally slid right into his garage. Oh, Jesus. Garage opened up. Perfect out. Like, no damage, nothing. But he did slide.
Everyone else was slipping and sliding people across the street for me. They parked up onto their. The grass. Like, you know, the, the. The sidewalk grass area that just was like doing this. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. All the way into their house because you couldn't even walk on the driveways or anywhere. Yeah. There were people, like, there's videos of people driving up on the curbs into the grass area because that was the only way to get traction
to get anywhere on the streets. Yeah. Another guy whose driveway kind of tilts a little bit, didn't trust it getting into there, so he parked on his actual lawn. Don't blame him. Nope. I live in a neighborhood that's behind a very heavily trafficked street in Omaha, so I hear a lot from my area. And I heard at least six different crunches. Sirens for about a solid two hours where I heard nothing but sirens. And then finally, by the time I got done with my cigar, it was in. We're talking 7:30pm
on a Friday. By the time I get done with my cigar, it was such an eerie quiet. I don't. I think finally everyone got the idea and no one was out on a Friday night. But I didn't Hear anything. And I thought that was the creepy damn thing. Yeah. Yeah. For a solid. My entire cigar probably lasted for an hour and a half. And throughout that hour and a half, man, it was just solid chaos that I was so happy I was at home. Yeah.
We heard helicopters hovering over us up until. Yeah, up until about 7 because they were like trying to look for accidents or people that couldn't call for help or whatever to. In I live. Yeah, I know. At least the medical helicopter went back and forth a few times for places. So who knows for what I. From what they estimate, Friday night to Saturday morning, 550 wrecks were reported. Yeah. Yeah. I'm glad I stayed put. Yeah. Yeah. Holy. All the videos that came in
were insane. Just craziness. Yeah. But yeah, that's my ice beginning. It was just. Even just watching my own street and seeing the madness of that. And then, yeah, I was just like, oh, I was happy to be home. Yeah. And we started watching the videos after that like. Like as Joe Bob was coming in. And then I offhandedly talked to my wife about how the Christmas movie the Ice Harvest would be perfect to watch this season because we experienced that during our season. No shit.
Yeah, it was. It was a horrifying night. And I'm. I'm was really disappointed and sad that I didn't get to go out in my fancy outfit and like, wow everybody and like, you know, my beard was all nice and mine is not the only Friday night that was ruined like that. But hopefully, other than obviously the people that you mentioned that are already part of accidents, hopefully everyone was safe and sound that night. That could possibly have been.
Because that could have been really ugly if people were really coming home any later than that. Imagine if that would have hit later at night and people like not realizing how bad it was going to be. After being out for the night. Yeah, yeah. Like 11pm midnight and all of a sudden you come out and everything's just an ice rink. Yeah, that would have been terrifying. Yeah, you would have been like walk to a hotel downtown. If you were downtown
or something. People would have been dead. It would have been a terrifying night. It happened at just the right time. Or it could have been so much worse. Yeah. Oh, yeah, definitely. Well, look at that. We've almost padded it out to an hour. Once I add in the full music and everything, maybe we'll actually hit like a. A full hour from this. That'd be great. That'd be. That'd be awesome. All right. With that, we're gonna
play the Story time. And immediately following that, on the pirate radio edit, also from 1964, the band the Kinks with the song All Day and All of the Night on the pirate radio edit right after this. If you've decided you can't. Yellow. Hey, man, how's it going? Not too bad. Look, this Time Chicken is taking up all of my time. I know we're supposed to be recording here soon for our next series, but I don't know what the fuck to do. I. I kind of sort of ran into him here in the bunker. He's just
standing there staring at me. Dude, the Time chicken is right here in front of me. But it's right here, too. It's all here, feathers and all. Everything's fine. I'm staring at the goddamn thing and it's looking at me with this beady little robot eyes. Robotic Time Chicken? Yeah, the Robotic Time Chicken. Okay, were you looking at my plans and you're fucking with me. No, I'm serious. There's a robotic time sticking staring at me with his red beam eye.
Okay, you're experiencing time fluctuations. Oh, God damn it. I see me. You don't have an eye patch, do you? Yeah, why do I have an eye patch? Oh, shit. The time fluctuations are getting worse than what I thought. Is that really what my ass looks like? God damn. I need to go on a diet. Actually, that you has lost a lot of weight. You look significantly fatter than that. Oh, God damn it. Dude, something starting to happen with the Robot Time Chicken. What's it doing? It's vibrating it.
Making what? I can only assume a robot chicken thinks a real chicken makes a sound. It's a lot of clicking. It sounds like when a clock's ready to go bad. No, that's just techno. It does that. That's how it tries to communicate now. It tries to communicate through techno? It's a long story. I hooked it up to Robot Court's brain. Robot Court? High on, like, ecstasy or something. They're robots. They don't get high on ecstasy. We just program them to feel like that. Oh, okay.
I don't know. Anyway, it's doing something and there's more me. There's, like, three more. Okay, have you seen the one dressed in army fatigues that's missing an arm? Let's see here. There's one in a leather suit with a daddy necklace. So I'm gonna have to really have a conversation with him to find out what the hell's going on. That's you from three weeks ago. God damn it. I Gotta really put the bottle down. And then there's one. He is in a nice three piece suit, full head of air and he's
thin. That's an alternate timeline. You. That one's gonna correct itself. Oh, fatigues. Military fatigues guy. Yep, There he is. He's coming through. One arm or both arms? So what are you trying to tell me? Don't let him know. Know what? That he. He has one arm in a future version of himself. What do you say about my arm? Nothing. Nothing. Don't worry. Don't worry about it. Fucking A. I love the Kinks and a. I'm gonna pad out this episode with extra songs for extra moments or extra bit of time
for the Kinks to play. All day and all of the night. Hells yeah. Not just to pad out the episode either. Just because the Kinks kick ass and the pirates do kick ass. Have that on there. Yes. Well, we're going to have to close out the episode at some point in time. And so I decided to give you a double dose of the Beach Boys on one episode on the pirate radio edit with the kickass song. Don't Worry baby. To close it
out. So go ahead and enjoy that while you kick the out of this week and make it your going on my arm. It's a long story, but that version of you joined a militia and he blew it off. Off in a drunken stupor with a snowblower. That's my right arm, man. That's the. You know, the keeping busy arm. Yeah, I know. Try not to become him. Good idea. Have you seen any other versions of me? Oh yeah, you got a robot head. Rest of you is a human robot headed court.
Your beard however is a magnificent set of razor blades. So you look pretty happy. I don't know what that's about. Okay, okay. This paradox generator that I've created out of chicken is not working out so well. Okay, listen, I'm going to shut down the paradox generator that I have hooked up to the chicken right now. I hope so, because it's really starting to get rank in here. 3, 2, 1. And we should have normalcy. Everything's clear in here. Do you have both arms? Yes. Close your
left eye. Yes. Got everything. Now close your right eye. Now I can't see anything. Oh, you don't have a left eye. I don't have a left eye. Shit. All right, dude, I'm gonna have to call you back. I'm gonna get this fixed somehow. What about my left fucking eye? If I get it fixed, we'll be Back to full normalcy for us. And I'm willing to sacrifice an eye for you. Why do I have an extra finger? Oh, that's absolutely no problem. You're actually just a clone. Self destruct mechanism 53.
Yep. There we are. Yeah. All right. Well, let me get started with this then. Recording in progress. There we go. And we are rolling on backup and normal and second backup and then third backup and then. Holy. Do you need this one? Fourth backup. They're all rolling. Yeah. They. We need all the backups. Yeah. Because especially since we're all on our own and your notes on this one. I'm a little scared. Yeah. Right. We don't have a clip to correct
us whenever you try to convince everyone that a Mothra is birthed. Not unlike a Cambrian entity of a monster from Tremors. Multi cycle. Multi life. Yeah. Yeah. But it's. It's. It's Mothra. Yeah, well, Mothra is birthed that way. So, you know, there is a caterpillar and all of that stuff and eggs and. We'll get into it when we get in it. Let's. Let's just fucking do it. What do you think? All right. All right. Let's do it. All right. Episode 490. Mothra versus Godzilla. Three, two, one. Sorry,
just. Businessman tried to kidnap the fairies for more. Yeah. Yeah. It just did my own joke and got lost then. And I'm a dick. He keeps losing his spot in his notes because you know me, right? That's okay. It makes great Freel takes. It's fine. All right. I'm happy I can help. Okay. There we go. All right. So let's see here. So. Okay. But they get them. So then. But I have the budget right here. I like doing this. I was gonna. I'll wait till the end to
see what the budget is and what they made. I'm gonna do that with my movies from now on. Okay. Go for it. Once I can find at least. It may seem ludicrous that even in the absolute dumbest of scenarios a chicken could be imbued with a time traveling ability if accepted. Accepting that a chicken could even be capable of creating time travel cannot
be believed. One could therefore never accept that same chicken would somehow be harnessed by an alien invading force to use in order to record a podcast in the year of each film from a planet that invading force was sent to destroy. If this bit of multiverse factoid is too much for you to accept, then there really is no point in us then discussing how this same magical time travel chicken was so easily stolen by a human from these aliens. That human was Coort Psyops.
Psyops Labs isolated and studied the Time Chicken's abilities and began work on temporal manipulation and teleportation. Court began combining his previous work on the Tachyon Destroyer, designed to eliminate things from ever existing from a timeline, with the newly discovered temporal teleportation abilities harvested from the Hail
Ming Time Chicken. These coupled bits of mad science gave this variant, of course, the ability to target the existence of anything across any dimension in space time and the multiverse of possible realities. He chose to anchor things around every timeline and possible multiverse where his podcast existed. He used the temporal teleportation Tachyon Destroyer to remove all memory and convince the people he was never a mad scientist and these were only sketches for his stupid show.
Well, we're gonna have to close out the episode at some point in time and so I decided decided to give you a double dose of the Beach Boys on one episode on the pirate radio edit with the kick ass song Don't Worry Baby to close it out. So go ahead and enjoy that while you kick the out of this week and make it your. Oh God damn. That song just puts me at ease, man. Oh yeah,
that's good stuff. Yeah, nothing wrong with that. Yeah, I didn't want to interrupt it, but I had to interrupt it so that I could stop this recording. Stopped.
