1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,320
There is very little time or point in an explanation. To be

2
00:00:05,820 --> 00:00:09,480
blunt, the audio came from a timeline and dimension that has collapsed at a

3
00:00:09,980 --> 00:00:14,080
quantum level, rendering it null and void in terms of existence. Operational time

4
00:00:14,580 --> 00:00:18,200
in the dimensional continuum where the beings that created the audio collapsed in

5
00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:21,600
on itself, rendering all of their civilization, including technology,

6
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,880
null and void. Timelines across the entire continuum are collapsing

7
00:00:26,380 --> 00:00:30,560
and changing. The destruction has a nexus that centers on cinema syll.

8
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:36,540
10 years. Man 10. 10 years.

9
00:00:43,660 --> 00:00:47,020
10 years. Man 10 years. 10 years.

10
00:00:51,340 --> 00:00:54,860
10. 10 years. 10 years.

11
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:03,020
What is the most likely way humanity will be wiped out? Maybe it's something.

12
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,560
Or us. Although the way the world ends might be because of you.

13
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,760
And if this is the case, you wouldn't have any control over it.

14
00:01:11,260 --> 00:01:15,080
The global temperature rise underscores a chilling reality. Our planet

15
00:01:15,580 --> 00:01:18,800
is trying to tell us something, but we don't seem to be listening. A recent

16
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:23,240
study has suggested that one third of annual deaths due to heat are directly related

17
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:24,440
to global warming.

18
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,720
On top of the initial flash of thermonuclear light,

19
00:01:33,220 --> 00:01:36,780
which is 180 million degrees, which catches every everything on fire in

20
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,180
a nine mile diameter radius. On top of the bulldozing effect of the wind and

21
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,460
all the buildings coming down, and more fires igniting more fires on top of the

22
00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:49,420
radiation if they happen to have survived poisoning people to death. On top of

23
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,380
all that, each one of these fires creates a mega fire

24
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,420
that is a hundred or more square miles.

25
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,200
Timelines across the entire continuum are collapsing and changing.

26
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,280
The destruction has a nexus that centers on Cinema Psyops.

27
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,640
A breathtaking scientific revolution is taking place.

28
00:02:39,580 --> 00:02:42,460
Biotechnology has been progressing at stunning speed.

29
00:02:42,860 --> 00:02:46,380
Giving us the tools to eventually gain control over biology.

30
00:02:46,620 --> 00:02:50,740
Solving the deadliest diseases while also creating viruses more

31
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,540
dangerous than nuclear bombs, able to devastate humanity.

32
00:02:54,860 --> 00:02:58,380
It's man returning to the most primal,

33
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,460
violent state as people fight over the tiny

34
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:06,620
resources that remain. What if the world we live in is just a dream

35
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,380
or a simulation? Whether it's a dream or some advanced computer game

36
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,000
you are playing right now, when it ends, you would be what causes the end

37
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:18,120
of the world. Please do us all a favor. Continue dreaming or playing this game

38
00:03:18,620 --> 00:03:21,800
of life. Because when you wake up or unplug, there's a chance the rest of

39
00:03:22,300 --> 00:03:26,160
us will be blaked out of existence. Timelines across the entire continuum

40
00:03:26,660 --> 00:03:30,320
are collapsing and changing. The destruction has a nexus that centers on

41
00:03:30,820 --> 00:03:34,040
cinema syllabs. 10. 10 years.

42
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:35,240
10 years.

43
00:03:45,220 --> 00:03:49,060
And welcome to the 513th consecutive

44
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,140
week of Cinema Psyops. I'm your host, Cort, the guy that

45
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,780
has some rather Sad news to unlay on everybody, but I'm

46
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,700
gonna wait until I introduce my interim co host, which is my

47
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,580
co host, Darren. Hey, how you've been, man? It's been a minute.

48
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,660
Yeah, it's been a long, long time. And I'm very, very, very grateful that

49
00:04:08,900 --> 00:04:12,180
pretty much at the last minute, like, I messaged you Wednesday, and I'm

50
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,400
like, I got a podcast in crisis. Able to have this thing where

51
00:04:16,900 --> 00:04:18,960
we would just be like, yo, I need some help. We need to get something

52
00:04:19,460 --> 00:04:21,800
done here. Can I. Can I get some help? And, you know, I was able

53
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:24,960
to call that favor in from you, and I'm very grateful that that happened.

54
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,760
And the reason that I have some sad news for everybody that I got to

55
00:04:28,260 --> 00:04:31,680
kind of lay on it on, Matt is absolutely fine. Matt's health,

56
00:04:32,180 --> 00:04:34,080
other than his mental health, is probably not so great.

57
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,480
Essentially, there is some stuff that's kind of getting in the way, and there's going

58
00:04:38,980 --> 00:04:40,680
to be a couple of weeks where Matt's going to have to step away from

59
00:04:41,180 --> 00:04:44,520
the show. You know, at least you. You got another guy from the

60
00:04:45,020 --> 00:04:48,620
Midwest. I don. I'm not an Aaron Rodgers fan,

61
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,660
but. Yeah, but you do live in Ohio,

62
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,300
which somehow is going to basically counterbalance that, I guess.

63
00:04:57,340 --> 00:05:00,380
Yeah. All right, so Matt, like I said,

64
00:05:00,860 --> 00:05:03,180
physically and everything is fine.

65
00:05:03,740 --> 00:05:07,820
Emotionally, he's probably pretty wrecked right now because his wife

66
00:05:07,980 --> 00:05:11,260
has been diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia.

67
00:05:11,420 --> 00:05:15,100
And while the prognosis is good, she will be in an

68
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,010
extended hospital stay. And when I say the prognosis is good is there's actually treatment,

69
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:23,320
treatments and things that can actually alleviate. It requires the long hospital stay.

70
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,280
And life is just busy enough for Matt as is. We already know

71
00:05:27,780 --> 00:05:30,760
that capitalism has been crushing him. And this is just one more thing that was

72
00:05:31,260 --> 00:05:34,000
just too much. So I said, you know what, let's not stress about trying to

73
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:38,600
figure out how to squeeze in recordings with you during this time. Let's take.

74
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:42,320
I'm giving him three weeks. We're going to take three weeks off. Darren's being nice

75
00:05:42,820 --> 00:05:45,280
enough to fill in for week one, and I got another Midwestern guy, and I

76
00:05:45,780 --> 00:05:49,560
actually think if this works out, I might actually have a Wisconsinite gentleman to fill

77
00:05:50,060 --> 00:05:54,020
in for another two. And if that works out, that gentleman might actually be

78
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,620
the first guest to officially do all of the notes.

79
00:05:57,860 --> 00:06:01,260
Now, I did have Nick from the

80
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,860
Bee movie cast who did his version of the movie coverage where

81
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,340
we let him synopsize the movie, but this is going to be our first guest

82
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:11,980
actually trying to synopsize the Movie in the Cinema Psyops

83
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,900
style. Clips and everything. Synopsize and Cinema Psyops

84
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,300
style. Yeah. Synopsizing in Cinema Psyops style. Yeah. That's very clue,

85
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,440
isn't it? The way that I said that. One plus two plus two plus

86
00:06:24,940 --> 00:06:28,560
one. Absolutely. So, long story short, too late.

87
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,520
Matt's going to be out for about three weeks. We're going to have someone filling

88
00:06:32,020 --> 00:06:36,040
in and there's some little bit of good news on top of that. I didn't

89
00:06:36,540 --> 00:06:40,240
want Matt to miss this film that we're covering this week, which is Godzilla 2000

90
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,920
or Godzilla Millennium, depending upon which version of it that you saw

91
00:06:44,420 --> 00:06:47,040
the title card for. I didn't want him to miss this one. I didn't want

92
00:06:47,540 --> 00:06:49,960
him to miss the next one, which is Megarius next week where Godzilla vs.

93
00:06:50,460 --> 00:06:53,660
Meguirrus. And then also there's like this completely insane one that we'll

94
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,140
be covering like three weeks from now that I don't want him to miss.

95
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,260
So when everything is back to relatively normal that he can start doing the show

96
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,100
again, Matt's going to come back and we're going to actually finish up covering whatever

97
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,500
it is or if he doesn't make it to the end of the year,

98
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,540
because we've got eight weeks left. Well, every single one of these Godzilla movies that

99
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,620
he missed, whenever he comes back, we're going to do as a commentary and we're

100
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,500
going to be partying while we do it. So you'll still get to hear Matt's

101
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,100
thoughts. Only this time, whenever he loses his shit during an actual Kaiju

102
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,240
battle and like starts shouting into the microphone, you' it happen live.

103
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,840
So it. We'll do it live. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

104
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,360
So again, thank you very much to Darren for filling in here and being a

105
00:07:32,860 --> 00:07:36,440
co host while I do the notes for Godzilla 2000 or Godzilla Millennium.

106
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,680
I really, really appreciate it. We're going to keep the streak going. We got eight

107
00:07:40,180 --> 00:07:41,800
weeks left to do it in. If we have to do it through a co

108
00:07:42,300 --> 00:07:44,200
host to make it happen, we're going to make it happen. Because the bulk of

109
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:47,360
the work still happened with Matt, so that's all that matters. And it's still a

110
00:07:47,860 --> 00:07:49,920
goal that I want him to be able to celebrate that we achieved as well.

111
00:07:50,420 --> 00:07:53,520
Even if I got to do all the lifting for it and, you know.

112
00:07:54,020 --> 00:07:57,140
Yeah, Sa reasoning, but happy to be here. Yeah.

113
00:07:57,300 --> 00:08:00,860
I really wish that it wasn't for this reason, but it is for this reason.

114
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,900
But I am again eternally grateful to have you on the show while we do

115
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,020
this. And we got all sorts of stuff planned. Darren's actually gonna take over the

116
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,460
story time. We already got that planned out and all of it. So I'm excited.

117
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,900
I cannot wait. I think we've been beaten around the bush enough. I think it's

118
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,460
time to actually take the break and get into doing the film. What do you

119
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,940
think? I think I'm ready. All right. So we're gonna take the break here.

120
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,740
We're gonna play the Legion Patreon ad and on the pirate radio edit.

121
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,560
Like we've been doing all coverage for so long I can't even remember when we

122
00:08:29,060 --> 00:08:32,600
actually started. We're gonna have songs that were all popular from the year the

123
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:36,240
film was released. Godzilla 2000 was actually released in 1999.

124
00:08:36,740 --> 00:08:39,880
I know. It's a whole thing. But anyway. The songs that were released in 1999

125
00:08:40,380 --> 00:08:44,040
just like Godzilla 2000. So up first is Fastball with Out of My Head Immediately

126
00:08:44,540 --> 00:08:48,040
following this on the pirate radio edit. This will keep it quiet. Testing the paradox

127
00:08:48,540 --> 00:08:52,200
sustaining devices that are essential to the function of the Mobius Loop of annihilation

128
00:08:52,700 --> 00:08:56,440
has proven difficult in the labs of 7 quartz. Its all in one Edison manufacturing

129
00:08:56,940 --> 00:09:00,680
business. The Collective were able to verify this through the audio taken from video

130
00:09:01,180 --> 00:09:03,840
surveillance footage that survived the explosion. Okay.

131
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,000
We know from the PURV perv.

132
00:09:08,500 --> 00:09:12,080
Why would he arrange the words that explain the device's function so the acronym made

133
00:09:12,580 --> 00:09:15,840
out something that would sound like perv. This is the same guy who created security

134
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,520
protocol numbers based on adolescent anatomical calculator

135
00:09:20,020 --> 00:09:23,640
jokes of the 80s. I think he believes it makes him relatable and cool.

136
00:09:24,140 --> 00:09:27,540
I guess the perv showed some new upgrades

137
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,020
to the paradox sustaining device that are essential to the function of the Mobius Loop

138
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,900
of annihilation. And we haven't even replicated the originals since the

139
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,220
lab explosion. That unspecified engineer caused by

140
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,300
miscalculating the formulas they tried to improve on from what

141
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,100
they saw being done watching the perv Perv.

142
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,900
That just sounds so bad. Right? Like why would you want to recreate

143
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,660
things you saw through a perv? It's not very marketable. The boss's brand

144
00:09:55,820 --> 00:09:58,960
is more about looking like a genius while taking

145
00:09:59,460 --> 00:10:03,160
credit for some other people's hard work and ideas. I would venture to say

146
00:10:03,660 --> 00:10:07,200
that making it widely known that your main source of innovations is

147
00:10:07,700 --> 00:10:10,920
from a device that you created by mistake in an explosion

148
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,040
that unspecified engineer caused that allows you

149
00:10:15,540 --> 00:10:18,880
to look into alternate realities would be harmful to that,

150
00:10:19,380 --> 00:10:23,160
let's say deceptive brand. There sure seems to be a lot of social commentary hidden

151
00:10:23,660 --> 00:10:25,980
in the things we are saying here. I wonder if our author is super,

152
00:10:26,050 --> 00:10:29,730
super woke. Now, imagine that. An author who wants all of his characters and

153
00:10:30,230 --> 00:10:34,330
stories to be inclusive and representative of all sorts of sentient beings

154
00:10:34,830 --> 00:10:37,730
who treat each other with basic manners and dignity and respect.

155
00:10:37,890 --> 00:10:41,450
That is some serious Star Trek bullshit right there. It just sucks that

156
00:10:41,950 --> 00:10:46,170
our author seems to be obsessed with Douglas Adams, because the sheer volume of outlandish

157
00:10:46,670 --> 00:10:49,250
concepts we deal with daily is the fucking worst.

158
00:10:50,450 --> 00:10:53,810
All right, as is my tradition, whenever I'm playing, playing about a minute

159
00:10:54,310 --> 00:10:56,730
or so of the music for our quote unquote breaks that I put in there,

160
00:10:57,230 --> 00:10:59,610
I take a little bit of a hit or two, which I was definitely doing.

161
00:11:00,110 --> 00:11:03,450
And as Darren can contest, I may have gone a little overboard. So I

162
00:11:03,950 --> 00:11:07,050
was coughing a good bit during Fastball's song there, and Darren almost

163
00:11:07,550 --> 00:11:10,970
had to check up on me. It was close. You spoke up right before I

164
00:11:11,470 --> 00:11:14,010
said something. I was trying to be good and quiet. Right. Well, you don't have

165
00:11:14,510 --> 00:11:16,770
to do that anymore because the music all gets replaced, so don't worry about that.

166
00:11:17,270 --> 00:11:20,300
Everything gets replaced in this show. Now, the recordings that you're used to where it

167
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,820
was like, oh, man, you fucked up that take. We gotta start again. You know,

168
00:11:24,140 --> 00:11:27,940
like that. Like doing every single thing live and making it come out live

169
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,060
exactly how we needed it while everyone was in the room. I don't do that

170
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:35,460
anymore. I'm not that. I mean, yeah, it's been a long time since we

171
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,780
sat down and talked about the gate. Exactly. So let's go

172
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,180
ahead and sit down and we'll start talking about Godzilla 2000. And hopefully we'll shake

173
00:11:44,680 --> 00:11:47,890
off all the rust and see what happens. All right, so the first third of

174
00:11:48,390 --> 00:11:51,850
the film starts with the classic Toho production company logo. And then

175
00:11:52,350 --> 00:11:55,930
we see a man working on some kind of broadcast antenna array in what

176
00:11:56,430 --> 00:12:00,130
appears to be the twilight hours by the light of his car fog and

177
00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:04,330
headlights. The vehicle I mentioned is a mobile command center of some sort.

178
00:12:04,830 --> 00:12:08,170
We see a woman is cleaning and maintaining a large film camera. And then

179
00:12:08,670 --> 00:12:11,690
the man hops into the van. There is an overlay telling us that this is

180
00:12:12,190 --> 00:12:15,450
apparently the Godzilla Prediction Unit. I promise you, in my notes,

181
00:12:15,950 --> 00:12:18,310
if I don't just call it the gpu, which I will call it later on,

182
00:12:18,810 --> 00:12:21,830
I'm going to say the words Godzilla Protection Unit by mistake. It's gonna happen,

183
00:12:22,330 --> 00:12:25,510
folks. And, Darren, as soon as it does, you need to call me out

184
00:12:26,010 --> 00:12:28,870
on that for everyone, okay? All right. Prediction. All right, so the woman maintaining the

185
00:12:29,370 --> 00:12:32,830
camera talks. That's Dialogue. And as we all know, that's our first clip.

186
00:12:33,070 --> 00:12:36,750
Are you sure he's going to come? Hope so. Don't want to

187
00:12:37,250 --> 00:12:41,030
disappoint a big shot reporter like you. I've really got to get

188
00:12:41,530 --> 00:12:44,670
some great pictures of him. IO, do you read me?

189
00:12:46,350 --> 00:12:47,710
Roger, loud and clear.

190
00:12:49,850 --> 00:12:53,570
18 degrees. Okay. What's that on

191
00:12:54,070 --> 00:12:57,770
the monitor? Density changes in the plasma. Careful, EEL OR expresses

192
00:12:58,270 --> 00:13:02,170
voltage regulation. What he means is that when a charge fluctuation occurs,

193
00:13:02,410 --> 00:13:06,250
the plasma above the Earth's surface is induced to the ground. The plasma

194
00:13:06,750 --> 00:13:10,090
and the tremor in the ground become linked. In short, the seismometer.

195
00:13:10,250 --> 00:13:13,410
Plasma. You mean like blood? You really are

196
00:13:13,910 --> 00:13:17,120
an imbecile. Imbecile? An imbecile term.

197
00:13:17,670 --> 00:13:21,270
If there is any fluctuation, that means Godzilla's in the area.

198
00:13:21,830 --> 00:13:24,790
It's starting, isn't it? Yeah, right?

199
00:13:25,670 --> 00:13:29,590
It seems so. We still can't contact the Ocean

200
00:13:30,090 --> 00:13:33,590
Queen. Is it possible something is interfering

201
00:13:34,090 --> 00:13:37,510
with their transmissions? Could be. I'll keep trying. Over and

202
00:13:38,010 --> 00:13:41,110
out after this. We see the man looking out at the sea

203
00:13:41,610 --> 00:13:44,870
on the main deck of a lighthouse as he has a look around at all

204
00:13:45,370 --> 00:13:48,310
the various windows in the stormy night out there, we see what appears to be

205
00:13:48,810 --> 00:13:52,730
a ship passing beside the lighthouse within the vision of the man. That damaged

206
00:13:53,230 --> 00:13:55,970
ship is definitely caught in the jaws of the Big G as they reveal that

207
00:13:56,470 --> 00:13:59,850
this is the case when they zoom into a CGI augmentation of

208
00:14:00,350 --> 00:14:03,850
the Godzilla eye that blinks. And that trick worked out really

209
00:14:04,350 --> 00:14:06,770
well. The CG and everything that they did to make that happen look great.

210
00:14:07,410 --> 00:14:10,890
If that was actually a practical thing that they did to make

211
00:14:11,390 --> 00:14:14,490
that happen. It was so smooth that I actually believe that it was cgi because

212
00:14:14,990 --> 00:14:17,770
it looked almost animalistic in the way that it moved. Yeah.

213
00:14:18,270 --> 00:14:21,710
The logo of the film title pops up. The lighthouse man exits and runs in

214
00:14:22,210 --> 00:14:25,910
fear from Godzilla. And no sooner do I type that bit about biting the ship,

215
00:14:26,410 --> 00:14:29,790
and then Big G does just that, dropping remaining bits of the ship

216
00:14:30,290 --> 00:14:34,230
to either side of him as he passes. Holy fuck. Did that just look incredible.

217
00:14:34,730 --> 00:14:37,590
I mean, they drop actual chunks of ship at the guy that did the stunt

218
00:14:38,090 --> 00:14:41,630
and everything. It was really cool. Yeah, I was a little cautious

219
00:14:42,130 --> 00:14:45,550
because this was one I hadn't seen before. And then that. That put me a

220
00:14:46,050 --> 00:14:49,710
little bit deeper into my seat to start watching. I actually ended

221
00:14:50,210 --> 00:14:52,030
up backing it up and watching it again because I was taking notes and I

222
00:14:52,530 --> 00:14:54,850
felt like I missed. And I just wanted to see it again anyway, just because

223
00:14:55,350 --> 00:14:58,970
I really like that sequence. Godzilla so rarely bites anything. Like,

224
00:14:59,470 --> 00:15:02,810
I mean, he'll bite during attacks, he'll bite opponents and stuff. But you very rarely

225
00:15:03,310 --> 00:15:06,370
see him, like, actually, like, bite into a building or claw at a building or.

226
00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:08,650
A lot of the stuff that he does in this one, we don't really see

227
00:15:09,150 --> 00:15:12,690
as much or as often. So, like, actually having him pick up

228
00:15:13,190 --> 00:15:15,650
a ship in his mouth and then bite it on his way to shore was

229
00:15:16,150 --> 00:15:19,490
just something that I thought was super badass. Because you see him, like, damaging other

230
00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:23,250
ships or, you know, you'll see the aftermath of him damaging a ship, but actually

231
00:15:23,750 --> 00:15:26,390
seeing him picking one up in his teeth and biting down on it is kind

232
00:15:26,890 --> 00:15:28,470
of a rare treat. And I really dug it.

233
00:15:29,990 --> 00:15:33,310
All right, so the dude diving out of the way of the

234
00:15:33,810 --> 00:15:37,590
falling debris is also pretty fucking sweet and really well done.

235
00:15:37,670 --> 00:15:41,110
Just because I wanted to mention that I kind of glossed over it, but the

236
00:15:41,610 --> 00:15:44,070
effect was really, really cool. But the actual stunt of the guy diving out of

237
00:15:44,570 --> 00:15:47,150
the way, of the ship dropping. I mentioned it, but I just. It's really,

238
00:15:47,650 --> 00:15:51,150
really fucking cool. And then they add, like, a little bit of extra stunt

239
00:15:51,650 --> 00:15:55,070
flourish to it, and they do a little, like, Chaplin reference. Because the ship,

240
00:15:55,570 --> 00:15:58,930
right after it, Godzilla, knocks over this broadcast tower that's right

241
00:15:59,430 --> 00:16:02,930
near that lighthouse, and that falls towards the guy. And that's when that Charlie Chaplin

242
00:16:03,430 --> 00:16:07,210
little reference happens. Because the radio tower lands perfectly right around

243
00:16:07,710 --> 00:16:10,130
the garden, the way that he's sitting, so as not to harm him in any

244
00:16:10,630 --> 00:16:14,050
way. And it just kind of offers us a nice little comic relief after all

245
00:16:14,550 --> 00:16:18,090
of that horror that we just watched with Godzilla walking past. I'm glad

246
00:16:18,590 --> 00:16:21,410
you said Charlie Chaplin. Cause I thought that was a Buster Keaton thing. Yeah,

247
00:16:21,910 --> 00:16:24,850
maybe it's Buster Keaton. Maybe it's Charlie Chaplin. I don't know. I forget who.

248
00:16:25,350 --> 00:16:27,770
I'm sure they both did it. I don't know who did it first. Yeah,

249
00:16:28,270 --> 00:16:31,950
maybe it is Buster Keaton. I'm. I'm probably wrong. But again, anytime I'm

250
00:16:32,450 --> 00:16:34,710
wrong, call me out on that bullshit, because Matt never does. And I don't get

251
00:16:35,210 --> 00:16:38,030
feedback anymore. So I don't know when everyone's putting stuff out there that's pissing people

252
00:16:38,530 --> 00:16:42,350
off. I will say. I won't say you're wrong. I will say, I'm not sure

253
00:16:42,850 --> 00:16:46,510
who is right. That's hilarious.

254
00:16:47,010 --> 00:16:49,830
But either way, it was definitely a reference to whoever it was that had done

255
00:16:50,330 --> 00:16:54,310
that originally. And they did it almost perfectly. And I know that whoever

256
00:16:54,810 --> 00:16:57,630
it is, Jackie Chan's a huge fan, and he likes to recreate that as well

257
00:16:58,130 --> 00:17:01,050
as best as he can. It's probably Buster Keaton because Buster Keaton did stunts like

258
00:17:01,550 --> 00:17:03,450
that. But you know, building off the works. Of others,

259
00:17:04,570 --> 00:17:07,450
they cut from that to a shot of the gpu.

260
00:17:07,610 --> 00:17:11,090
That's what the acronym of their initials makes. GPU just does.

261
00:17:11,590 --> 00:17:15,170
They cut from the GPU to a small bar like restaurant of

262
00:17:15,670 --> 00:17:18,810
some sort. Which as we all know, any dialogue at all, no matter how short,

263
00:17:19,310 --> 00:17:22,490
is our next clip. Ah, that damn teriyaki is cold again.

264
00:17:24,170 --> 00:17:26,460
But as long as the beer is cold, who cares?

265
00:17:27,730 --> 00:17:30,970
You clowns don't like it, there's plenty of other places to eat around

266
00:17:31,470 --> 00:17:32,930
here. So shut up or get out.

267
00:17:47,570 --> 00:17:51,330
If you're frightened, get down. I'm okay,

268
00:17:51,830 --> 00:17:55,340
but aren't you worried about. About your daughter? No. She worries

269
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:55,980
about me.

270
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:02,300
Hang on.

271
00:18:10,540 --> 00:18:14,020
Big G is on the move and shatters that

272
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,860
restaurant before we see the GPU run out of

273
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:21,520
road after four wheeling over a rock slide slide to get through

274
00:18:22,020 --> 00:18:25,400
a tunnel in the mountain. They narrowly miss flying off of the new

275
00:18:25,900 --> 00:18:30,240
cliff face where the road ends in damage and the dad tilts the floodlights

276
00:18:30,740 --> 00:18:34,480
up to give us a terrific low light reveal and tease of the new

277
00:18:34,980 --> 00:18:38,360
Godzilla look. And man, is this creepy. The way the lights go up,

278
00:18:38,860 --> 00:18:41,880
it feels like a, like they're kind of like doing a little Jurassic park reference

279
00:18:42,380 --> 00:18:45,600
the way that they did the lighting. But those like flood searchlight things that are

280
00:18:46,100 --> 00:18:49,750
going up in the like just basically doing flashlight searches over Godzilla.

281
00:18:50,250 --> 00:18:53,510
Looks so fucking cool. Yeah, it was fucking rad. It made

282
00:18:54,010 --> 00:18:56,830
me forget that I was watching a dubbed Godzilla movie.

283
00:18:58,190 --> 00:19:01,590
The reporter tries to flash a quick picture of Godzilla

284
00:19:02,090 --> 00:19:05,270
and is stopped because they say they are too close. For a flash, Big G

285
00:19:05,770 --> 00:19:09,190
leans into the car that is way too close to him

286
00:19:09,690 --> 00:19:13,600
and gives it a little sniff as his bra. As his bra breath fogs up

287
00:19:14,100 --> 00:19:17,120
all of the windows instantly when it hits and it actually shakes the car a

288
00:19:17,620 --> 00:19:20,400
little bit too. That was really well done. It's a really nice mix of practical

289
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,200
CGI and compositing shots of a man in a suit to make that work.

290
00:19:24,700 --> 00:19:26,960
And it looked really cool. It was, it was a nice change. You know,

291
00:19:27,460 --> 00:19:29,640
I like the New Gods. I don't want to go too far on a tangent,

292
00:19:30,140 --> 00:19:32,400
but I like a lot of the new Godzilla movies and they're the ones I

293
00:19:32,900 --> 00:19:36,240
see a lot more often because I have a 10 year old kid. But he,

294
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,200
as I said before and I'll get into later, he's a big Godzilla

295
00:19:40,700 --> 00:19:44,230
fan. So we've seen the other ones and there's something about a guy in a.

296
00:19:46,220 --> 00:19:49,660
The Person in the suit and the practical effects and the explosions

297
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,940
happening off of the person in the suit and the danger that happens in there,

298
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,980
the fun of that just kind of transpires over. It's something that Matt and I

299
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,900
have been talking about the entire time we've been doing this coverage. And you're not

300
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,900
wrong. The fact that it's just so much more dangerous with the dude in the

301
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,820
suit, you know what I mean? That's what makes it more fun. It's so much

302
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,820
more punk rock. You feel it. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

303
00:20:10,140 --> 00:20:12,940
It's much more tangible. It's much more, like,

304
00:20:13,020 --> 00:20:17,170
ephemeral. It's there, you know, like, it's like there's no pressing

305
00:20:17,670 --> 00:20:21,610
the I Believe button. When you at least can see a practical thing get smashed

306
00:20:22,110 --> 00:20:24,730
in front of you. Even if it is kind of tiny, even if you do

307
00:20:25,230 --> 00:20:27,890
have to push an I Believe button, that it's not just a dude in a

308
00:20:28,390 --> 00:20:31,849
suit smashing into a small miniature building. It's still much easier to push the

309
00:20:32,349 --> 00:20:35,530
I Believe button than it is with some of the compositing and CGI problems that

310
00:20:36,030 --> 00:20:39,370
we'll have later on. A really good model and suit, even though it looks

311
00:20:39,870 --> 00:20:42,810
like a good model and suit, will automatically trick you way,

312
00:20:43,310 --> 00:20:45,730
way, way much more. You're already where you need to be, as if you've been

313
00:20:46,230 --> 00:20:50,030
watching the suit Godzilla mo all along with me. So you're. You're perfect. You're a

314
00:20:50,530 --> 00:20:54,110
perfect fill in. Already. Bought in at

315
00:20:54,610 --> 00:20:57,950
the right time. Yeah, exactly. All right, so the reporter triggers the

316
00:20:58,450 --> 00:21:01,590
camera flash photography. Multiple intense bursts. I think in her panic, she just

317
00:21:02,090 --> 00:21:05,470
squeezes the button and can't let go. And that triggers Big G,

318
00:21:05,710 --> 00:21:09,110
who takes a big swipe at the car as the

319
00:21:09,610 --> 00:21:13,430
GPU throws it into reverse and tries to get the living out of there.

320
00:21:13,930 --> 00:21:17,870
We see Big G is not giving up on his pursuit and is now

321
00:21:18,370 --> 00:21:21,650
climbing up and over the mountain, including having one of

322
00:21:22,150 --> 00:21:25,210
his feet rupturing through the ceiling of the tunnel while they flee.

323
00:21:25,290 --> 00:21:28,810
Some really amazing action in this. They do at least two great

324
00:21:28,970 --> 00:21:33,010
leg smashing through the tunnel. And then some great practical stunt

325
00:21:33,510 --> 00:21:36,570
driving mixed into this, where the car is bouncing off the walls of the tunnel,

326
00:21:36,730 --> 00:21:40,170
running in fear. And then the CG augmentation that they're doing in this

327
00:21:40,670 --> 00:21:44,290
is also really well done for this era. And it's all really impressive.

328
00:21:44,790 --> 00:21:48,240
This sequence works really well. They did an excellent job with it. And it's

329
00:21:48,740 --> 00:21:52,080
really terrifying to watch his feet coming through the tunnel as they're trying to flee

330
00:21:52,580 --> 00:21:56,280
too. Yeah. Builds the claustrophobia they finally make it

331
00:21:56,780 --> 00:22:00,240
out of the tunnel and then Big G overtakes

332
00:22:00,740 --> 00:22:04,000
the crest of the mountain. The reporter screams at seeing this.

333
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,880
And the kid tells the dad to get the GPU the fuck out

334
00:22:08,380 --> 00:22:11,560
of there. And so they do. And then they cut to a dude getting out

335
00:22:12,060 --> 00:22:15,200
of an elevator. He walks into some sort of a conference room. There's a bunch

336
00:22:15,700 --> 00:22:19,030
of people talking about shit. And that is expository dialogue in our third.

337
00:22:20,780 --> 00:22:24,380
Thank you. Now everyone can be

338
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,180
head of the CCI at 32. Excuse me,

339
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,860
sir. It's about the meteorite. Would you excuse me?

340
00:22:32,140 --> 00:22:35,780
They've reached it. Yes, sir. How far down is

341
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,140
it? Just under 900 fathoms. Start surfacing procedures

342
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,340
immediately. The whole area is fog bound, sir. We'll have to wait till tomorrow

343
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,380
morning. The end of the clip starts an amazing city stomping sequence.

344
00:22:48,700 --> 00:22:52,360
You just have to see to believe. There are terrific

345
00:22:52,860 --> 00:22:56,720
under lighting monster style looks for Godzilla.

346
00:22:57,220 --> 00:22:59,880
We kind of talked about this earlier with Matt, but they do this sort of

347
00:23:00,380 --> 00:23:04,680
light from below that casts sort of shadows up and over whenever

348
00:23:05,180 --> 00:23:08,240
features stick out a little bit more. And it just kind of is an unsettling

349
00:23:08,740 --> 00:23:11,880
look. They've been using this monster lighting for ages. It goes all the way back

350
00:23:12,380 --> 00:23:15,720
to Boris Karloff's Frankenstein's Monster and stuff like that with this technique.

351
00:23:16,220 --> 00:23:19,920
But they started using it more effectively for the villains to make them look more

352
00:23:20,420 --> 00:23:23,820
sinister and eerie and evil in the suit ver Godzilla in the late

353
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,060
70s, particularly like Godzilla versus Gigan is when I really started noticing it that they

354
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,180
did this. But they perfected here because there's some really amazing,

355
00:23:32,340 --> 00:23:35,900
like, red gel lighting in some of the shots that looks like fire all

356
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,940
around and hell just surrounding everywhere that Godzilla is. And just some truly

357
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,860
terrifying, gruesome stuff that's included in the absolute destruction

358
00:23:44,020 --> 00:23:47,460
and devastation that's left in the wake of Big G in this sequence.

359
00:23:47,700 --> 00:23:51,340
So I really dug all of this. And it's like classic Kaiju dude in

360
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,560
a suit the way that you fucking want it. Looks great. Yeah. It was

361
00:23:56,060 --> 00:23:59,840
definitely making me hearken back to the first Godzilla

362
00:24:00,340 --> 00:24:03,440
movies I saw at people's houses when I was a kid and stuff.

363
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,640
That's the best part about it. That's the part of the suit love I

364
00:24:08,140 --> 00:24:10,720
think really comes from. You have to see the suit movies when you're young enough

365
00:24:10,799 --> 00:24:13,400
to where you're like, man, I would love to do that. How much fun would

366
00:24:13,900 --> 00:24:17,080
this be to make this movie? They cut

367
00:24:17,580 --> 00:24:21,040
from this to the GPU following as quickly as they can and pointing an

368
00:24:21,540 --> 00:24:24,960
antenna Right at Big G. Why? We do not know. It's something

369
00:24:25,460 --> 00:24:28,580
that they're going to do to take some kind of reading or whatever. But whatever.

370
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,620
It sparks dialogue. Along with a windshield wiper joke that's going

371
00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:36,700
over top of a completely broken windscreen in our fourth

372
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,980
clip. Keep that antenna

373
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,700
steady. Does that help, Eddie? And I'm

374
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,340
the imbecile. Touche. So why don't you

375
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,060
take some pictures? That's what you came here for, right? Oh,

376
00:24:52,790 --> 00:24:55,110
dog. Must be punishing me for being ambitious.

377
00:24:56,470 --> 00:24:59,990
All right. You sure you still got film in the camera?

378
00:25:00,230 --> 00:25:01,350
Oh, bite me.

379
00:25:08,150 --> 00:25:09,030
Godzilla.

380
00:25:22,310 --> 00:25:25,740
Go, Godzill. At the end of the clip,

381
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,340
the squad moved fast enough to get ahead of Big G and give us an

382
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,700
even more terrific shot of Big G walking in that red gel

383
00:25:33,860 --> 00:25:37,660
hell lighting that we were talking about earlier. And it's in the horizon,

384
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,660
so it really shows the scale of him. And they put the man of the

385
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,580
GPU and his daughter standing in a composited foreground shot while

386
00:25:46,660 --> 00:25:50,180
Big G's walking in the background in that hell gel red

387
00:25:50,260 --> 00:25:53,970
looking like lighting to really give you this sort of, like, scale as

388
00:25:54,470 --> 00:25:57,890
Big G just wrecks a fucking power plant. In his glorious tradition

389
00:25:58,390 --> 00:26:02,610
of just knocking shit like that over while they watch. It's just fucking

390
00:26:03,110 --> 00:26:06,930
glorious stuff. They cut from all of this to a strange sequence of some

391
00:26:07,430 --> 00:26:11,130
dudes in a submarine and some expository dialogue in

392
00:26:11,630 --> 00:26:14,330
our fifth clip. Last surfacing unit is in position.

393
00:26:15,210 --> 00:26:18,410
Depth 5300. Right rudder, 10 degrees.

394
00:26:22,870 --> 00:26:23,430
Unbelievable.

395
00:26:26,550 --> 00:26:28,550
It's like a forest of volcanoes.

396
00:26:31,270 --> 00:26:35,070
What's that? You promised

397
00:26:35,570 --> 00:26:39,189
you'd put me on hard news if I shot Godzilla at Nemuro. Now come on.

398
00:26:40,390 --> 00:26:44,150
Did you look at these first? These negatives are as blank as your mind.

399
00:26:44,550 --> 00:26:46,790
Godzilla's radiation fogged the film.

400
00:26:47,990 --> 00:26:51,220
Next time, don't guess so close. Now go and try again.

401
00:26:52,020 --> 00:26:56,060
I'm not another joyride with those freaks. Quit your

402
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,340
bitching. They're a pain in the ass.

403
00:27:00,100 --> 00:27:01,380
Kimura, is that you?

404
00:27:03,380 --> 00:27:06,860
Shinoda here. Yeah, go ahead. About this data you

405
00:27:07,360 --> 00:27:10,740
just sent me. Amazing, huh? The temperature of the water

406
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,520
off Kinkazan. Is up 38 degrees in the past two hours.

407
00:27:14,830 --> 00:27:18,030
Hours? That needs to

408
00:27:18,530 --> 00:27:21,470
be blue. All right. Okay, sure. Excuse me,

409
00:27:21,870 --> 00:27:24,430
I'm looking for the Godzilla Prediction Network.

410
00:27:25,230 --> 00:27:29,230
Oh, sure. Yeah. Down that hallway,

411
00:27:29,730 --> 00:27:33,030
take the first left. Oh, right. Okay, then when you

412
00:27:33,530 --> 00:27:36,910
get to the. End, turn right, left, then right. Got it.

413
00:27:36,990 --> 00:27:40,430
Who told you to stop working? No one. So you got it?

414
00:27:40,930 --> 00:27:43,830
Yeah, I was left, then right. Right, got it.

415
00:27:44,330 --> 00:27:46,630
Great. Thanks. What?

416
00:27:48,630 --> 00:27:50,790
If you want to work with us, you have to join.

417
00:27:52,870 --> 00:27:56,550
Membership, 200,000 yen plus 50,000amonth.

418
00:27:57,050 --> 00:28:00,630
What is this, the imbecile rate? We are like a collective. We share the

419
00:28:01,130 --> 00:28:04,630
financial risk up front. Then we profit from the information we acquire.

420
00:28:04,950 --> 00:28:08,110
Look, I'm not interested in joining your little clubhouse,

421
00:28:08,610 --> 00:28:11,910
see? I just want to take some more pictures. Okay, you want to take pictures,

422
00:28:12,310 --> 00:28:15,670
you'll have to become a member. Hey, a little

423
00:28:16,170 --> 00:28:18,870
help here. I'm in charge of the business end.

424
00:28:20,550 --> 00:28:23,910
However, we do have an alternative plan. Half off of you

425
00:28:24,410 --> 00:28:25,270
agree to share expenses.

426
00:28:27,510 --> 00:28:30,710
The meteorite is highly magnetic. The material could be

427
00:28:31,210 --> 00:28:34,120
the first step toward finding a new and more efficient source of energy.

428
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,120
Excellent. Any reduction in the use of fossil

429
00:28:38,620 --> 00:28:40,840
fuels would be a real feather in CCI's cap.

430
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,920
All balloons, inflicted Aqua Lift

431
00:28:47,420 --> 00:28:48,120
system standby.

432
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,160
Standby to commence lifting. Roger.

433
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,600
All ships commence lifting.

434
00:29:04,750 --> 00:29:08,190
It's going up too fast. What the hell's happening?

435
00:29:11,390 --> 00:29:13,470
I don't hear that cabbage being charged.

436
00:29:15,150 --> 00:29:18,830
Destroy our power. The few of us would be busy indefinitely

437
00:29:18,910 --> 00:29:21,710
trying to suppress a large hostile population.

438
00:29:21,870 --> 00:29:24,190
Steppers ready. All right.

439
00:29:26,650 --> 00:29:30,530
What makes you think you'll conquer us without a fight? With regrets

440
00:29:31,030 --> 00:29:31,290
to meet with you.

441
00:29:35,450 --> 00:29:39,010
GPN Center hold on,

442
00:29:39,510 --> 00:29:42,450
please. It's Outpost 23 1. Ah,

443
00:29:42,950 --> 00:29:46,170
that'll be Sonoda. Hey,

444
00:29:46,330 --> 00:29:49,970
I've been analyzing some new tremors and

445
00:29:50,470 --> 00:29:53,640
I'm writing now. It. It looks like he's moving south.

446
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:57,880
Vacation?

447
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,880
Hey, let me give you a hand. Spotted him again?

448
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,440
Yeah, give me a push here. There you go.

449
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,730
Jeez, you stink. No,

450
00:30:19,230 --> 00:30:22,810
your breath. See you tomorrow. Later,

451
00:30:23,310 --> 00:30:23,530
baby. Bye.

452
00:30:27,850 --> 00:30:28,970
Hello? It's Yuki.

453
00:30:32,490 --> 00:30:33,530
You know where he is?

454
00:30:36,490 --> 00:30:39,370
Thank you, sir. Sharing expenses, my ass.

455
00:30:41,370 --> 00:30:43,430
Well, I sure as hell ain't paying for gas.

456
00:30:48,630 --> 00:30:52,150
Unit one, stand by. Unit two.

457
00:30:54,230 --> 00:30:57,670
We've drilled several holes into the rock, but we keep hitting something

458
00:30:57,750 --> 00:31:00,910
solid. So we've stopped for now. Give me a

459
00:31:01,410 --> 00:31:04,946
guess on its age. Best estimate so far is 60,

460
00:31:05,034 --> 00:31:08,950
70 million years. What about

461
00:31:09,450 --> 00:31:12,840
its buoyancy? Well, possibly it's hollow.

462
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,280
And it did surface of its own will somehow.

463
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,440
Meaning what? It could be a vessel from

464
00:31:22,940 --> 00:31:23,160
outer space.

465
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,280
Mr. Secretary. Come in.

466
00:31:36,790 --> 00:31:39,910
Kitty. Yes, of course.

467
00:31:41,270 --> 00:31:44,630
I'm on my way. Godzilla.

468
00:31:45,030 --> 00:31:48,630
They've just spotted him moving south near Ibaraki.

469
00:31:48,950 --> 00:31:50,390
You stay here for now.

470
00:31:55,030 --> 00:32:00,030
New Godzilla reading. He's moving inward toward

471
00:32:00,530 --> 00:32:03,190
Tokai. The nuclear plants? I knew it.

472
00:32:04,230 --> 00:32:08,150
Afraid so. Oh, that's just lovely.

473
00:32:08,630 --> 00:32:09,910
Another Chernobyl.

474
00:32:12,870 --> 00:32:16,670
This is Katagiri of Crisis Control. Godzilla is heading

475
00:32:17,170 --> 00:32:20,670
for Takai as we speak. Shut down all your reactors

476
00:32:21,170 --> 00:32:24,150
immediately. Are you crazy? I don't have the authority.

477
00:32:24,470 --> 00:32:28,190
You do now. And as head of the Crisis Control Agency I'm giving

478
00:32:28,690 --> 00:32:31,010
you authorization now. Shut down the those reactors.

479
00:32:32,050 --> 00:32:36,130
Red alert. Red alert. Shut down all reactors immediately.

480
00:32:36,290 --> 00:32:39,930
This is not a drill. Reactor one shut down and two shut

481
00:32:40,430 --> 00:32:41,970
down. We'll circuit.

482
00:32:44,130 --> 00:32:48,130
Godzilla is headed for Tokai on the east coast of Ibaraki.

483
00:32:48,210 --> 00:32:51,850
The government is holding an emergency cabinet meeting. And they're sending

484
00:32:52,350 --> 00:32:54,050
the army to the presumed landing spot.

485
00:32:57,890 --> 00:33:01,660
Don't you think this. This is a little too close? I need

486
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,540
to be as close as possible. You don't like it, Go home and watch it

487
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:05,140
on tv.

488
00:33:11,380 --> 00:33:14,260
Katagiri didn't waste any time. Katagiri?

489
00:33:15,540 --> 00:33:19,380
Deputy Secretary of the Interior, Head of the cci.

490
00:33:21,300 --> 00:33:24,020
Hello, Shinoda. It's been a long time.

491
00:33:25,060 --> 00:33:27,860
Not long enough. I'd hope never to see you again.

492
00:33:28,740 --> 00:33:31,920
I know you and me are were a fine team.

493
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,640
You should have come with him when I established cci. Not in a thousand years.

494
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,640
I could never work for a man like you. Why not?

495
00:33:41,140 --> 00:33:44,080
We both have the same goals. Boy, that's a real laugh.

496
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,480
Godzilla needs to be studied. He's a gold mine of

497
00:33:47,980 --> 00:33:51,120
knowledge. Well, you couldn't care less. You just want to kill him

498
00:33:51,620 --> 00:33:55,480
before we fully analyzed him. And in the meantime he just levels

499
00:33:55,980 --> 00:33:59,120
Tokyo? Of course not. That's why I created the Network.

500
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,980
He must be contained. I realize that, but his word worth the

501
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,940
effort. Tell you what. Join the Network.

502
00:34:07,180 --> 00:34:08,300
You might learn something.

503
00:34:11,420 --> 00:34:14,380
Your Network's history. I'll send flowers.

504
00:34:17,260 --> 00:34:19,180
Shutting down the reactors isn't enough.

505
00:34:20,060 --> 00:34:22,140
You'll have to kill all energy sources.

506
00:34:24,700 --> 00:34:27,780
General Takata of the first Division. I was told to report to you,

507
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,820
sir. Bastard. You really think you can kill. Guys.

508
00:34:31,890 --> 00:34:32,530
Godzilla.

509
00:34:35,410 --> 00:34:38,450
It's moving. With that, the rock

510
00:34:38,950 --> 00:34:42,690
in the ocean stands up on its side like a monolith at sunrise.

511
00:34:42,850 --> 00:34:46,810
And that triggers a sequence of some slightly off looking tanks

512
00:34:47,310 --> 00:34:50,410
moving around in what I assume is early CGI compositing of

513
00:34:50,910 --> 00:34:54,610
them. It just didn't quite look right. I don't know if they mapped like

514
00:34:55,110 --> 00:34:58,530
something over existing tanks that were moving to make them look nicer and newer,

515
00:34:59,030 --> 00:35:02,130
or if this was just CGI tanks that they put into

516
00:35:02,210 --> 00:35:05,590
place to map over them moving in city streets that they couldn't put them

517
00:35:06,090 --> 00:35:09,350
on, or what, but you definitely didn't get. That's what I was thinking. Yeah.

518
00:35:09,850 --> 00:35:13,350
It just didn't look right. Right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It felt like something was off.

519
00:35:13,850 --> 00:35:16,830
It felt like seeing CGI now from a student film. You know what I mean?

520
00:35:17,790 --> 00:35:22,110
Or like. Or like seeing Doctor who effects now, which have not improved

521
00:35:22,610 --> 00:35:28,750
from Doctor who effects of this era. For cgi. That's what it looks like anyway.

522
00:35:29,250 --> 00:35:32,990
Then cuts to what I assume is stock footage of actual tanks moving over hills

523
00:35:33,490 --> 00:35:36,690
and rough terrain as they look real and are actually there as they're

524
00:35:37,190 --> 00:35:40,450
moving, there's a wide shot of the tanks all lining up. And then a dude

525
00:35:40,950 --> 00:35:44,890
reports in, triggering more expository dialogue in our sixth clip.

526
00:35:45,930 --> 00:35:49,530
Group two in position and ready. Over. Roger, group two.

527
00:35:49,690 --> 00:35:50,410
Stand by.

528
00:35:53,770 --> 00:35:56,930
As we know from experience, when Godzilla's attacked,

529
00:35:57,430 --> 00:36:00,810
he advances instead of retreats. We can make use of his aggressiveness

530
00:36:01,310 --> 00:36:04,540
by luring him to the mouth of the river. And what happens once he

531
00:36:04,770 --> 00:36:08,210
gets there? The underwater mines will do the rest. Mines? What about the safety of

532
00:36:08,710 --> 00:36:12,130
the local residents? Ah, yes. Well, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed,

533
00:36:12,630 --> 00:36:16,050
but I can promise no more than 2, 300 tops. I don't like

534
00:36:16,550 --> 00:36:20,170
it. And if the mines fail to stop him, then what? We've developed an advanced

535
00:36:20,670 --> 00:36:24,530
new weapon. A new generation of armor piercing missile. It's so powerful,

536
00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:28,810
it can penetrate any known material. I guarantee it'll go through Godzilla

537
00:36:29,310 --> 00:36:32,540
like crap through a goofy IO. Yes.

538
00:36:34,460 --> 00:36:37,820
So what now? You and IO go to a safe distance.

539
00:36:38,780 --> 00:36:41,340
What about you? I'm waiting for Godzilla.

540
00:36:42,220 --> 00:36:44,220
Katagiri is determined to kill him.

541
00:36:49,100 --> 00:36:51,340
That sound can mean only one thing.

542
00:36:51,900 --> 00:36:52,860
Godzilla.

543
00:36:55,900 --> 00:36:59,740
He's coming. Coming. Get going. Godzilla makes landfall.

544
00:36:59,980 --> 00:37:03,700
Some rough CGI helicopters move into position and fire

545
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,620
at Big G. This sequence is pretty great, excluding one ropey

546
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,900
bit where a suit actor walking against green screen is composited with

547
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,540
him walking onto a peninsula that starts with him actually on

548
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,180
top of water just outside of the land. Like he's walking on the water,

549
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,820
like Jesus or something. Again, it's not a huge deal. Just thought

550
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,940
I would point it out since I noticed it this time that like, he actually

551
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:30,510
starts walking on the water with this like green screen shot of him

552
00:37:31,010 --> 00:37:34,470
walking into the foreground. Otherwise it looks fucking great. It's just that, like,

553
00:37:34,970 --> 00:37:37,230
they needed to do a little bit of work on the compositing on where they

554
00:37:37,730 --> 00:37:40,790
started his feet. I mean,

555
00:37:41,290 --> 00:37:44,230
I wondered how they were going to start the second season of Watchmen.

556
00:37:46,230 --> 00:37:49,910
You know, they ended it with the foot going onto the water and

557
00:37:50,630 --> 00:37:53,590
now. It'S going to be Godzilla walking on water. Yeah. Yeah. Well,

558
00:37:53,750 --> 00:37:56,830
you know, some folks that listen to this show may actually believe

559
00:37:57,330 --> 00:38:00,730
that. I honestly think that Godzilla should be walking on water at this point because

560
00:38:01,230 --> 00:38:04,570
I am such a fan. And those people are not wrong. They're dicks, but they're

561
00:38:05,070 --> 00:38:08,210
not wrong. You could be both. Yeah, you can be a not wrong dick.

562
00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:12,050
We Know that It's been established. All right,

563
00:38:12,130 --> 00:38:15,770
so the tanks start a barrage of mortar fire that frankly

564
00:38:16,270 --> 00:38:20,250
feels as dangerous as the old school stuff, but looks more realistic

565
00:38:20,750 --> 00:38:24,290
in the manner the explosions happen. Now, what I mean by that is it's concussive,

566
00:38:24,370 --> 00:38:27,850
not sparkly like the firework explosions we have seen

567
00:38:28,350 --> 00:38:32,200
them use in the paint past. But these tank hits still have no

568
00:38:32,700 --> 00:38:36,680
effect on Godzilla. And having them looking as believable as

569
00:38:37,180 --> 00:38:41,120
they actually do as they explode in front of him, it makes Big G even

570
00:38:41,620 --> 00:38:44,960
scarier to me because these look like actual tank explosions

571
00:38:45,460 --> 00:38:48,800
that are really believable. And not only is it not

572
00:38:49,300 --> 00:38:52,880
doing shit to Big G, there is a suit actor having these

573
00:38:53,380 --> 00:38:57,290
concussive explosive fire balls going off from his suit

574
00:38:57,790 --> 00:39:00,930
at us on, like towards the camera. And they're just standing there taking

575
00:39:01,430 --> 00:39:04,770
it. And that's so fucking punk rock and cool. Yeah, I'm sure they

576
00:39:05,270 --> 00:39:09,210
were quite bruised. Again, it's way

577
00:39:09,710 --> 00:39:12,410
scarier to me. And it's so cool that he's just standing there as all of

578
00:39:12,910 --> 00:39:15,810
this ends up happening. But then when you start to think about it, there's a

579
00:39:16,310 --> 00:39:20,050
person in there taking that concussive fire. And would you not describe those

580
00:39:20,550 --> 00:39:23,310
explosions as concussive fire balls? I would.

581
00:39:23,790 --> 00:39:27,070
At this point is when I started saying, oh,

582
00:39:27,230 --> 00:39:31,950
are they going to actually do some damage to

583
00:39:32,830 --> 00:39:35,150
Big G? Yeah, well, I guess we'll see.

584
00:39:35,870 --> 00:39:39,270
Yeah, it made me a little bit nervous for a second. I forgot who I

585
00:39:39,770 --> 00:39:42,910
was watching though. Right, you forgot whose name's on the marquee.

586
00:39:43,410 --> 00:39:46,830
So, yes, damage can be done, but he's gonna get back up. That's the point.

587
00:39:48,350 --> 00:39:52,070
Godzilla and Rocky have very similar fighting styles where it doesn't matter how hard

588
00:39:52,570 --> 00:39:54,890
you get hit, it's how hard you could get while still moving forward.

589
00:39:55,850 --> 00:39:57,290
I didn't hear no bell.

590
00:40:00,010 --> 00:40:03,490
All right, so the tanks are called back when Godzilla heads

591
00:40:03,990 --> 00:40:07,770
into the water towards them. And a set of bigger missile

592
00:40:08,270 --> 00:40:11,850
firing vehicles with those mega bunker busting missile

593
00:40:12,350 --> 00:40:15,330
things that they were talking about that they showed us earlier, all equipped with all

594
00:40:15,830 --> 00:40:19,170
of these things as they roll into position and fire. This damage being done from

595
00:40:19,670 --> 00:40:22,090
these missiles takes us right up to the end of the first third of the

596
00:40:22,590 --> 00:40:26,230
film. These missiles seem to do some surface damage to Big. Like, I'd like to

597
00:40:26,730 --> 00:40:29,070
point out that Darren was just concerned about what was going to happen because those

598
00:40:29,570 --> 00:40:32,990
explosions were insane. But they don't really appear to be penetrating deep like

599
00:40:33,490 --> 00:40:37,030
a bullet would to a human. Like they're not hitting him like a 9 millimeter

600
00:40:37,530 --> 00:40:40,790
bullet would to a just you know, cloth covered, like T shirt

601
00:40:41,290 --> 00:40:45,310
wearing chest on a human being. Right. Like they're hitting him like a strong pellet

602
00:40:45,810 --> 00:40:49,150
gun style would embed into a human being. And then

603
00:40:49,650 --> 00:40:52,990
they have like a little explosive burst from that. So it's like a smaller wound,

604
00:40:53,490 --> 00:40:56,950
but it's like a little chunk being blown out of the skin. Almost like

605
00:40:57,650 --> 00:41:00,610
whenever you nick yourself shaving and like a whole chunk comes out. You know what

606
00:41:01,110 --> 00:41:04,250
I mean? Like, that's all they're really doing. So, yes, they're doing

607
00:41:04,750 --> 00:41:08,170
damage to him. I will admit that these rockets that were sold to

608
00:41:08,670 --> 00:41:11,770
be these super penetrative, like really damaging rockets,

609
00:41:12,270 --> 00:41:15,970
they're doing damage and they're exploding little chunks out of them. But they're just little

610
00:41:16,470 --> 00:41:20,170
tiny chunks comparatively. And it's really not that big of a deal. Yeah,

611
00:41:20,670 --> 00:41:24,370
like a, like a classic childhood Midwestern apple fight, you know?

612
00:41:25,010 --> 00:41:28,970
You know how it goes. I will say this, I don't know Midwestern

613
00:41:29,470 --> 00:41:33,350
apple fights because I was raised on the east coast. So did

614
00:41:33,850 --> 00:41:37,230
you guys do dirt clawed fights as kids maybe? No,

615
00:41:37,710 --> 00:41:41,350
we didn't. There was, you know, because if you threw, there's too many

616
00:41:41,850 --> 00:41:45,870
cars around to throw rocks. Right. But, you know, plenty of yards

617
00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:49,630
had those trees that grew the fist size or,

618
00:41:50,130 --> 00:41:53,710
you know, handful size apples that nobody ever wanted to eat. Crab apple trees,

619
00:41:54,210 --> 00:41:57,470
right? Yeah, yeah. Something like. Yeah, you just go yard to yard and

620
00:41:58,030 --> 00:42:01,190
helping each other with apples. Oh. See, where I grew

621
00:42:01,690 --> 00:42:04,570
up, up in the smaller areas of, you know,

622
00:42:05,050 --> 00:42:07,850
the hills of Pennsylvania, there was a lot of orchards around,

623
00:42:08,410 --> 00:42:12,250
you know, like apples and things like that. But like full size big apples.

624
00:42:12,330 --> 00:42:15,850
Right, right. Not like those just random crab apple trees that you just find

625
00:42:16,350 --> 00:42:19,410
out there, you know, and stuff like that. So when you said apple fight,

626
00:42:19,910 --> 00:42:22,570
I'm picturing like, you know, apples from an actual orchard. And I'm like, that would

627
00:42:23,070 --> 00:42:26,210
really hurt. But crab apples make small sized apples. Right,

628
00:42:26,710 --> 00:42:30,490
right, exactly. Okay, we are definitely tangenting way off

629
00:42:30,990 --> 00:42:33,710
of Godzilla at this point. So why don't we get back into act of the

630
00:42:34,210 --> 00:42:37,750
film? What do you think? Yeah, yeah, I'm down. All right, so the second act

631
00:42:38,250 --> 00:42:41,270
starts with a cut from the new missiles herding Big G.

632
00:42:41,350 --> 00:42:44,390
Like we said, just those tiny little bits of damage. Nothing really that big.

633
00:42:44,550 --> 00:42:48,510
Two jets taking off. And then cuts back from those

634
00:42:49,010 --> 00:42:52,310
jets to these new missiles hurting Big G. And then back to

635
00:42:52,810 --> 00:42:57,150
the scientists studying the big ocean rock thing with more expository

636
00:42:57,650 --> 00:43:00,310
dialogue in our seventh clip. I was right.

637
00:43:01,590 --> 00:43:04,820
It's following the sun if

638
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,020
it keeps. Don't just stand there.

639
00:43:09,260 --> 00:43:44,360
Move the boat Target

640
00:43:44,860 --> 00:43:45,960
in sight. Engaging now.

641
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,450
Got a kitty. It's Miyasaka. The rock's

642
00:43:59,950 --> 00:44:04,130
gone. It. It just flew away. All right, so we see the

643
00:44:04,450 --> 00:44:07,730
rock ship thing flying towards Big G,

644
00:44:08,130 --> 00:44:11,930
who is there getting blasted all too fuck by those missiles we

645
00:44:12,430 --> 00:44:15,770
were talking about, which still seem to be just doing some minor damage comparatively.

646
00:44:16,270 --> 00:44:19,970
And he heals really, really quick right afterwards, so more or less it's barely

647
00:44:20,470 --> 00:44:24,050
an inconvenience. Super. The rock arrives,

648
00:44:24,210 --> 00:44:28,050
does some form of predator scan that goes down to

649
00:44:28,550 --> 00:44:32,430
a cel and even possibly sub molecular

650
00:44:32,590 --> 00:44:36,310
level to find some sort of something or other that it

651
00:44:36,810 --> 00:44:40,350
apparently likes and or wants from Big G. Now, when I say predator

652
00:44:40,850 --> 00:44:44,510
scan, it actually cuts to predator vision. And then you see like the display of

653
00:44:45,010 --> 00:44:48,230
the alien language, like up on the screen, and then you see the scan and

654
00:44:48,730 --> 00:44:51,710
then it goes into like this CGI thing showing you the cells, and then deeper

655
00:44:52,210 --> 00:44:55,510
into like, what looks like might even be a submolecular level. All done with cgi.

656
00:44:56,010 --> 00:44:58,980
All not done super well. But it's all very important story point stuff.

657
00:44:59,210 --> 00:45:03,010
And that's why I'm up, because like

658
00:45:03,510 --> 00:45:06,010
I said, it looks like that something is what it wants from Big G.

659
00:45:06,170 --> 00:45:09,450
So there is a super long standoff before some sort

660
00:45:09,950 --> 00:45:13,050
of laser blast fires out of that rock. There's like this

661
00:45:13,550 --> 00:45:17,290
weird hole up on the one corner and then sends Big G hurtling

662
00:45:17,530 --> 00:45:20,810
backwards through a building. Big G gets back up

663
00:45:21,310 --> 00:45:24,650
and heats up his atomic breath, which fires just as the

664
00:45:25,150 --> 00:45:29,100
rock thing fires off into its blast. While Big G is being sent backwards

665
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:33,900
by the blast of the rock laser thing, he also sends the rock spinning through

666
00:45:33,980 --> 00:45:37,540
the air away from his atomic breath blast. As they both

667
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,820
explode, the sort of like breath blast challenge becomes

668
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,980
a draw here because they both get exploded backwards from what they're blasting

669
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,780
at each other. And I really like that the way they did that, where they're

670
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,420
like, ooh, they're equally matched. Yeah,

671
00:45:52,540 --> 00:45:55,860
they cut from this to a train and some people talking.

672
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,840
That is more dialogue and all right. Club I picked this up for next to

673
00:46:00,340 --> 00:46:03,240
nothing. You be a love it. Yeah, if she's still speaking to you.

674
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:05,400
Holy crap.

675
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,480
Did you see that flying rock U by? It's unbelievable.

676
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:23,960
Therefore, I'm convinced that this vessel comes

677
00:46:24,460 --> 00:46:27,370
from. From another galaxy. A visitor from outer space.

678
00:46:28,410 --> 00:46:30,570
My God. It's just too crazy to believe,

679
00:46:32,090 --> 00:46:34,970
right? Like, Godzilla's normal.

680
00:46:35,530 --> 00:46:39,370
Anyway, it's my theory that it draws its energy from light.

681
00:46:39,770 --> 00:46:43,370
When it landed, it sank in the ocean where sunlight couldn't reach it.

682
00:46:43,610 --> 00:46:47,450
Until yesterday when the research sub beamed its lights on it

683
00:46:47,610 --> 00:46:51,340
and it woke up. What we must know. Is it dangerous

684
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,340
to mankind? It's dangerous to Godzilla, that's for sure. I've never seen anything

685
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,300
with that kind of power before. But it's been inactive since the sun went down.

686
00:46:59,860 --> 00:47:03,860
Maybe, but we can't take chances. Run a full set of diagnostics.

687
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,700
If an alien is still alive in there, I want to know more about it.

688
00:47:13,700 --> 00:47:17,450
What about Godzilla? Nothing so far.

689
00:47:18,170 --> 00:47:20,010
The air force is still sweeping the area.

690
00:47:34,010 --> 00:47:36,890
All units 300 meters from target.

691
00:47:37,210 --> 00:47:40,330
Sensors in scanning mode. 10 bytes over.

692
00:47:40,970 --> 00:47:42,690
Baby. Begin sensor scanning.

693
00:47:44,530 --> 00:47:47,890
I wonder what it's up to now. You and me both.

694
00:47:48,610 --> 00:47:50,930
I'd love to know what's in there.

695
00:47:51,330 --> 00:47:55,010
I'd love to know about its power source. It could be centuries

696
00:47:55,510 --> 00:47:58,770
before we came up with something close to this. Hey, Professor. A call for you.

697
00:47:59,010 --> 00:48:02,770
Yes, Miyasaka. What? That was Shinoda.

698
00:48:03,270 --> 00:48:06,530
He wants to see us. He wants to use our equipment to examine a

699
00:48:07,030 --> 00:48:11,020
Godzilla. A skin sample, sir. Any common observation? Not at the moment.

700
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:15,020
The minute we know something, we'll let you know. Thank you. Any idea when

701
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:15,580
that will be?

702
00:48:20,780 --> 00:48:21,820
Hey, Yuki.

703
00:48:24,140 --> 00:48:27,420
Oh, so we're on a first name basis now, are we?

704
00:48:27,660 --> 00:48:31,340
Come with me. I have to collect some materials and you can get some photos.

705
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:33,900
Okay, Fine. But I'm still not paying for gas.

706
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,720
That's odd. What? My laptop came on by

707
00:48:40,220 --> 00:48:43,120
itself. Sure you didn't just leave it on?

708
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,360
Yeah, well, I wouldn't worry about it. Come on.

709
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,800
To be blunt, you're the last man I'd ask for a favor. And you think

710
00:48:55,300 --> 00:48:58,080
the sample's that important? I wouldn't have come here otherwise.

711
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,750
You can use the CCI equipment on two conditions. You share all

712
00:49:03,250 --> 00:49:06,030
the data you found, and you fully abide by our rules.

713
00:49:08,110 --> 00:49:11,510
It's a deal. Come on. We're going back to

714
00:49:12,010 --> 00:49:14,830
Tokyo. Some data was hacked from my computer.

715
00:49:16,430 --> 00:49:18,110
From the Godzilla file?

716
00:49:20,350 --> 00:49:23,630
Doesn't make sense. If the data's been read,

717
00:49:23,870 --> 00:49:27,600
the entire network's at risk. No kidding. Better bring the MO

718
00:49:28,100 --> 00:49:31,360
disk with you, just in case. I have a ton of summer homework

719
00:49:31,860 --> 00:49:34,600
to do. Are you going to help me with it? Of course I will.

720
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:36,680
Okay. See you in half an hour.

721
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,919
These photos are of the Godzilla skin sample I found in Tokai. The first

722
00:49:43,419 --> 00:49:46,800
one shows clear signs of scar damage, but the second one is

723
00:49:47,300 --> 00:49:50,040
completely clear. Same piece of skin?

724
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,870
Yeah. The photos were taken only five hours apart.

725
00:49:55,550 --> 00:49:57,630
That's a remarkable healing speed.

726
00:49:59,870 --> 00:50:02,670
Look. Every layer of skin, every cell,

727
00:50:03,070 --> 00:50:07,070
every blood vessel, they're all intact.

728
00:50:07,950 --> 00:50:11,390
What a creature. It's invincible. The question is,

729
00:50:11,870 --> 00:50:13,950
how can all these Cells regenerate.

730
00:50:16,510 --> 00:50:19,640
Maybe it has something to do with his radio radioactive properties.

731
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,440
Let's try the electron microscope. Okay.

732
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:27,480
Look at that.

733
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,240
How does he manage to regenerate his cells so quickly?

734
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:37,360
Cell recovery and reformation. Even with the simplest

735
00:50:37,860 --> 00:50:41,400
life forms, we've never been able to do that. It's like watching the

736
00:50:41,900 --> 00:50:45,640
process of creation. In a way where it's got parents.

737
00:50:47,240 --> 00:50:50,520
You discovered it. You ought to name it.

738
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,880
You really think so?

739
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,520
Regenerator G1.

740
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:01,480
Regenerator G1.

741
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,800
The clouds are clearing, sir. Yes, I know,

742
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,800
but that thing's tied down with electromagnetic cables.

743
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:17,240
Even if it wakes up, it's not going anywhere.

744
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,960
If regenerator G1 is the secret of Godzilla's healing

745
00:51:23,460 --> 00:51:25,560
ability, then we're onto something monumental.

746
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:30,560
It could revolutionize modern medicine if

747
00:51:31,060 --> 00:51:34,520
we. Could find a way to use it for humans. You know,

748
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,080
Godzilla could be full of such discoveries.

749
00:51:39,020 --> 00:51:42,500
I feel like we're back together at the university. Why did you

750
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,220
resign? I couldn't take it anymore.

751
00:51:46,700 --> 00:51:50,340
It had gotten too unethical. We were doing the research for

752
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,900
all the wrong reasons. Come in.

753
00:51:55,340 --> 00:51:59,220
Excuse me, Sir. There's an I.O. Shinoda here

754
00:51:59,720 --> 00:52:03,100
to see you. Come throughout. A grim negative drive.

755
00:52:05,030 --> 00:52:08,510
Did you bring him? During the clip, the flying rock has a small amount of

756
00:52:09,010 --> 00:52:12,430
what appears to be an alien ship revealed under all of the rock that was

757
00:52:12,930 --> 00:52:16,830
flying around. And the GPU folks were investigating a large Godzilla footprint.

758
00:52:17,330 --> 00:52:21,150
We did see them kind of doing that. Also, that generator G1 stuff is what

759
00:52:21,650 --> 00:52:24,830
that alien ship buried in the rock seemed to like about Big G that I

760
00:52:25,330 --> 00:52:28,950
pointed out earlier. So the doctor discovered it, or that scientist guy discovered

761
00:52:29,450 --> 00:52:31,770
it. And we all know what's going to happen with that from this point point

762
00:52:32,270 --> 00:52:35,770
forward. And at the end of the clip, the ship gets some more sunlight on

763
00:52:36,270 --> 00:52:40,170
it, and that has it start to shimmy and shake and terrify.

764
00:52:40,670 --> 00:52:44,330
The scientists studying it and the reporters filming it alike. It starts to

765
00:52:44,830 --> 00:52:48,810
shake loose as this is starting to cause some expository dialogue to explain it

766
00:52:49,310 --> 00:52:51,330
in our ninth class. Those things were unbreakable.

767
00:52:56,530 --> 00:53:00,150
So yeah, there we go with the exposure transitory dialogue again. Those things were supposed

768
00:53:00,650 --> 00:53:03,910
to be unbreakable, but however, they were not. Good thing

769
00:53:04,410 --> 00:53:06,990
he told. Yeah, good thing they told us. Well, I mean, they were described.

770
00:53:07,490 --> 00:53:09,950
They don't describe the cables. But one would assume that when you have that whole

771
00:53:10,450 --> 00:53:13,909
sequence that was happening during the clip of the cranes, you know, wrapping the

772
00:53:14,409 --> 00:53:16,830
wires up to try and hold this thing down and keep it from flying away

773
00:53:17,330 --> 00:53:20,190
again, you would assume that, you know, they're supposed to be this,

774
00:53:20,690 --> 00:53:23,950
like Most unbreakable tension metal wire that, you know, they possibly could make.

775
00:53:24,450 --> 00:53:27,900
You know, maybe. Maybe even like it's diamond encrusted in some way with like

776
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,540
a lab grown diamond to make it even more, you know, amazing and impressive,

777
00:53:31,780 --> 00:53:35,020
or let's call it sonic steel or something to make it

778
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,820
more impressive. And yet the ship still breaks the binds. That's how it works.

779
00:53:38,980 --> 00:53:42,300
Yeah. In a world with the Godzilla Prediction Unit and the

780
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,220
cci, you would think that they'd be like this. This beam can stop two and

781
00:53:46,720 --> 00:53:50,020
a half Godzillas, you know, in measurements of strength and sturdiness.

782
00:53:50,180 --> 00:53:53,700
Yeah. Like they have like a. Well, there is a G Force

783
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,740
unit in the 80s movies. I don't know how many of those you may or

784
00:53:57,240 --> 00:54:00,280
may, but we just got through the coverage of those, and the G Force unit

785
00:54:00,780 --> 00:54:03,240
very much is like that, where they have a guy who just like slaps the

786
00:54:03,740 --> 00:54:06,360
side of a Mechagodzilla and is like, this thing could kill three and a half

787
00:54:06,860 --> 00:54:10,160
Godzillas at once. You know, like, they make those bold statements

788
00:54:10,660 --> 00:54:13,720
and shit like that. And there's always like the guy that's like, I can't wait

789
00:54:14,220 --> 00:54:17,240
to fucking face Godzilla and stuff like that as well. You do have that a

790
00:54:17,740 --> 00:54:20,760
lot with these. But this is sort of like they're rebooting it and they're kind

791
00:54:21,260 --> 00:54:24,440
of coming back in with a new series again, and they're trying to start a

792
00:54:24,940 --> 00:54:28,160
new storyline and they're gonna start a new saga with the Millennium Era.

793
00:54:28,240 --> 00:54:32,220
E. They're just trying to revamp Godzilla

794
00:54:32,720 --> 00:54:35,940
or at least bring some of that fear into the modern era with this.

795
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,380
That's what they're attempting. So there we go. Makes sense.

796
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:43,100
All right, so after that thing takes off, the film cuts back to the daddy

797
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:47,420
daughter GPU and our 10th clip. You up to your tricks again,

798
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:51,180
Dad. I couldn't let them destroy our network. But they'll find out soon enough.

799
00:54:51,260 --> 00:54:54,220
They're your own discs, right? Do we run? Yeah.

800
00:54:54,620 --> 00:54:57,740
Shinoda, the UFO just flew away again.

801
00:55:04,330 --> 00:55:08,130
How can it still be alive after so long? It must have been in

802
00:55:08,630 --> 00:55:11,930
suspended animation. I just can't

803
00:55:12,430 --> 00:55:15,530
conceive of any life form that could survive for 60 million years.

804
00:55:16,330 --> 00:55:19,370
Good Lord. I just hope it's friendly.

805
00:55:27,850 --> 00:55:31,130
Great Caesar's ghost. What is that?

806
00:55:35,290 --> 00:55:36,090
Look at that.

807
00:55:42,090 --> 00:55:44,330
Everybody down.

808
00:55:45,770 --> 00:55:48,970
No, I can't get the pictures. No time, sister.

809
00:55:49,050 --> 00:55:52,090
Let's get out of here. Get going. Stop. Ping me.

810
00:55:52,930 --> 00:55:55,410
Hell's the battle with you? It's the scope of the century.

811
00:55:58,290 --> 00:56:01,890
Close off all streets around City Tower. Evacuate everyone in there now.

812
00:56:01,970 --> 00:56:05,450
Right away, sir. All aircraft away from the 5 mile

813
00:56:05,950 --> 00:56:09,249
radius around Shinjuku. This is now military airspace.

814
00:56:42,670 --> 00:56:44,270
Come on, come on,

815
00:56:47,870 --> 00:56:50,990
let's go. Move it.

816
00:56:51,070 --> 00:56:54,520
This way, this way. Move it.

817
00:56:56,190 --> 00:56:59,910
Now that we know it's hostile, we must do whatever we can to destroy

818
00:57:00,410 --> 00:57:03,710
it quickly. Thank God, it's going to be dark soon. That gives us

819
00:57:04,210 --> 00:57:08,110
a few hours to plan a course of action. What's tomorrow's forecast?

820
00:57:09,310 --> 00:57:10,350
Sunny and clear.

821
00:57:12,270 --> 00:57:13,630
We can't wait till then.

822
00:57:15,790 --> 00:57:19,070
We've got to destroy that thing tonight. The CGI ship

823
00:57:19,570 --> 00:57:23,430
that flies around is pretty poor quality, especially the parts with the helicopters

824
00:57:23,930 --> 00:57:27,170
crashing into it. At the end of the clip, the ship lands very heavily

825
00:57:27,670 --> 00:57:31,410
onto a newspaper building tower. And then they cut to some CGI of

826
00:57:31,910 --> 00:57:35,170
Godzilla swimming along menacingly and kind of glowing with radiation.

827
00:57:35,670 --> 00:57:38,650
That looks pretty ropey too. That was not that great. They cut back to the

828
00:57:39,150 --> 00:57:43,130
ship fully landed on top of the tower with people gawking at it and waiting

829
00:57:43,630 --> 00:57:47,090
for it to do something. Since it is inactive at night and powered

830
00:57:47,590 --> 00:57:50,890
by sunlight, apparently since it can fly and is alien, it should

831
00:57:51,390 --> 00:57:54,410
probably just, I don't know, leave our atmosphere where there is sun and then head

832
00:57:54,910 --> 00:57:58,320
directly into the sunlight without our atmosphere filtering it. And then it will like

833
00:57:58,390 --> 00:58:01,990
supercharged, like maybe even way faster. Maybe then the people would be even

834
00:58:02,490 --> 00:58:06,750
more bored saying come on, do something other than being a multi million year

835
00:58:07,250 --> 00:58:10,430
old spaceship on top of a newspaper building, right? Just sitting there

836
00:58:10,930 --> 00:58:13,910
for no fucking reason that landed there and is doing damage and can fly.

837
00:58:14,070 --> 00:58:17,390
And it was a rock under the ocean. But I mean it's, that's enough stuff

838
00:58:17,890 --> 00:58:21,150
that it's already doing that's kind of cool and terrifying at once. But also I

839
00:58:21,650 --> 00:58:25,590
don't understand like how a sun powered ship that can fly

840
00:58:25,750 --> 00:58:29,590
doesn't just chase the hemisphere with which the sun is constantly

841
00:58:30,090 --> 00:58:33,090
in. Because. Because that is possible for a thing that can fly. So it's always

842
00:58:33,590 --> 00:58:37,250
in the sun and always charging, right? Just slowly drift with the

843
00:58:37,750 --> 00:58:41,290
sun as it moves around the hemisphere and charge. They're anti woke.

844
00:58:41,790 --> 00:58:45,730
They also want to be plugged into the grid at the same time, I guess.

845
00:58:45,890 --> 00:58:50,210
I don't. They do kind of explain later but like right

846
00:58:50,710 --> 00:58:52,930
now I think if the ship just needed to get some energy, like why didn't

847
00:58:53,430 --> 00:58:56,930
it just leave the atmosphere and you know, supercharge, right? Because that would, whatever it

848
00:58:57,430 --> 00:59:00,610
is in sunlight that it needs, that it's charging during the day on Earth

849
00:59:01,110 --> 00:59:04,430
is going to be a hundred percent percent stronger outside of our atmosphere.

850
00:59:04,930 --> 00:59:08,110
That's all I'm saying. As intelligent as they

851
00:59:08,610 --> 00:59:10,030
appeared to be. You would think they would think of that.

852
00:59:12,430 --> 00:59:15,670
Yeah. Well, again, what do I know about any

853
00:59:16,170 --> 00:59:19,750
of this kind of crap? I do know that there is some dialogue

854
00:59:20,250 --> 00:59:22,830
about all of this stuff. And I just ended up recording that. So that's our

855
00:59:23,330 --> 00:59:27,230
11th clip. When's it gonna do something? Yeah, we've been waiting all

856
00:59:27,730 --> 00:59:31,710
day. The alien vessel remains motionless

857
00:59:32,210 --> 00:59:35,830
atop the city tower. And where is Godzilla? That is

858
00:59:36,330 --> 00:59:39,710
the question. As you can

859
00:59:40,210 --> 00:59:43,310
see, all traffic and transport facilities to this district are.

860
00:59:43,950 --> 00:59:46,750
The area around the city tower is completely blocked off.

861
00:59:47,070 --> 00:59:50,070
A no go zone on premises Tower.

862
00:59:50,570 --> 00:59:54,110
Still waiting for this really is incredible.

863
00:59:54,850 --> 00:59:58,490
Like a scene from an old sci fi movie. A giant flying saucer appeared

864
00:59:58,990 --> 01:00:01,970
in the sky above Tokyo and is perched atop city tower,

865
01:00:02,050 --> 01:00:05,450
completely immovable, looking down on us as if to challenge mankind

866
01:00:05,950 --> 01:00:07,010
for rulership of this planet.

867
01:00:09,490 --> 01:00:11,970
Again. Why does this keep happening?

868
01:00:27,580 --> 01:00:30,900
All computers in the Shinjuku district have gone down, sir. Isolate our

869
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:35,060
main computer. Yes, sir. Sir, the anti hacking program's crashed too. And the

870
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:39,100
main computer, kdo, has also gone down. What the hell is this?

871
01:00:40,140 --> 01:00:42,540
Miyasaka? I. I tried.

872
01:00:44,700 --> 01:00:47,750
All right, thank you. Try the infrared filter. Yes,

873
01:00:59,110 --> 01:01:02,509
I'll be damned. It's hacking City

874
01:01:03,009 --> 01:01:05,910
Tower supercomputer. It'll soak up every last bit of data.

875
01:01:11,750 --> 01:01:15,000
Use the linkage tracer to visualize the access route. Yes,

876
01:01:15,500 --> 01:01:17,560
sir. Mr. Secretary,

877
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:22,120
at this rate, all of Tokyo's data could be gone in a few hours.

878
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,760
I can't believe it. This could be

879
01:01:27,260 --> 01:01:30,760
the end of our civilization. You really call this civilization?

880
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:34,680
Anything we don't understand, we try to destroy. And CCI

881
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:38,485
ground zero for that kind of lunacy. We're all gonna die. And I'm part of

882
01:01:38,985 --> 01:01:40,240
the the reason, aren't I?

883
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:49,280
Engineers have just left, sir. Good. We're checking a readout.

884
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,560
How long do you need to set up the bombs? Half hour, tops. And to

885
01:01:54,060 --> 01:01:56,560
pull out? 10 minutes. That ought to be plenty.

886
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:02,080
Shinoda. Well, it's about time I got through.

887
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,960
Yuki. Yeah? Guess where I am. In a few minutes, I should

888
01:02:06,460 --> 01:02:09,280
know what they're after. Now listen. Get out of there immediately. You hear me?

889
01:02:09,780 --> 01:02:13,700
Katagiri's up to something. Are you crazy? No way I'm gonna leave now. We gotta

890
01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:17,060
know why they're interested in Godzilla. I'll call you back later. Are you there,

891
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:20,620
Yuki? I'm going to strangle that imbecile. The end of the clip starts.

892
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:25,220
A sequence of military dudes using high powered bolt guns to bolt explosives

893
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:29,300
of some sort to the floor of the tower to explode it and save all

894
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:31,900
of the data to save the world.

895
01:02:32,220 --> 01:02:35,660
Somehow I fail to see how the world is just going to explode because

896
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:39,740
data is being harvested. Like I understand that them getting the data for the

897
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:44,040
aliens is bad because they're trying to formulate a way destroy us. And that's bad.

898
01:02:44,540 --> 01:02:47,800
But like data being taken in and of itself, isn't that destructive?

899
01:02:48,300 --> 01:02:50,520
It's not going to make it to where people can't grow food in the Earth.

900
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,320
They were trying to warn us about Doge.

901
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:58,759
Yeah, that explains why it's ropey cgi. Yeah,

902
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:03,560
it's best not to think too hard about all of this after all. Anyway,

903
01:03:04,060 --> 01:03:08,160
so the Daddy Daughter GPU unit raced to save the reporter

904
01:03:08,660 --> 01:03:10,400
lady, and that is all. To Health Club.

905
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,440
Let us go, please. My mommy's in the tower.

906
01:03:22,940 --> 01:03:26,240
We have to save her. Hey, listen to me. Her mother's in

907
01:03:26,740 --> 01:03:28,320
the building. Understand? Let us through.

908
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:34,000
You can't go in, Professor. Why not? The whole place is going

909
01:03:34,500 --> 01:03:37,380
to blow in 10 minutes. What?

910
01:03:37,620 --> 01:03:41,540
Katakiri's orders. Come on,

911
01:03:42,260 --> 01:03:45,500
come on. We gotta get out now. I think I know what the aliens

912
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:50,020
want. There's no more time. The whole building's coming down in 10 minutes. Go on,

913
01:03:50,100 --> 01:03:53,660
move. What about you? I can do this faster than

914
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:58,020
you. Go find a guard and ask him to tell Katagiri to postpone the

915
01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:01,820
blast. Hurry up. Dad.

916
01:04:02,940 --> 01:04:06,220
Don't be too long, okay? I promise, sweetie.

917
01:04:07,100 --> 01:04:10,340
All right, here we go. At the end of our 12th clip,

918
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:14,300
the military rolls out to evacuate the blast zone. That leads to more

919
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,780
dialogue and our 13th clip. Bomb's in place. All units pulling

920
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:22,820
out now. Detonation at 2110

921
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:26,140
precisely. Check that. Nation at 2110.

922
01:04:27,670 --> 01:04:29,910
All unit destination at 2110.

923
01:04:35,910 --> 01:04:39,510
Two people are still inside the tower, sir. Who gave them access?

924
01:04:40,550 --> 01:04:43,910
I did, sir. Clear the area immediately.

925
01:04:43,990 --> 01:04:44,790
No delays.

926
01:04:48,470 --> 01:04:51,630
Come back. Stop. Yes,

927
01:04:56,240 --> 01:05:00,520
Blow up the building yet? My Dad's on the 48th floor. Contact Kiri

928
01:05:01,020 --> 01:05:04,640
and tell him to delay the blast. There's still a man in

929
01:05:05,140 --> 01:05:07,120
the building. Postpone the detonation.

930
01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:10,160
Proceed as instructed.

931
01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:14,160
It's Shinoda in there, sir.

932
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:18,560
Looks like I'm going to have to send more flowers.

933
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,760
Too late. We gotta go. Follow me. With this, the dad

934
01:05:30,260 --> 01:05:33,600
tries to flee the building, and the reporter turns the car around to take herself

935
01:05:34,100 --> 01:05:37,960
and the daughter back to the building that is about to explode for

936
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:41,440
some inexplicable reason. At least leave the daughter there so

937
01:05:41,940 --> 01:05:44,760
she can run further away from the explosion. And then you go back and get

938
01:05:45,260 --> 01:05:48,900
the guy. Maybe, but whatever. There was a lot of child endanger in

939
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:52,660
this that made me try to explain to my kid later that

940
01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:55,180
it was not an adult, it was a child.

941
01:05:56,300 --> 01:05:59,580
And this silliness actually takes us over the 2/3 mark of the film.

942
01:05:59,900 --> 01:06:03,540
So let's go back to that discussion. Yeah, there's a couple of things

943
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:07,740
that end up happening in here where I'm like, this parent is terrible. This kid

944
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:11,300
thinks that they're an adult and have every right to risk their lives as much

945
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:15,540
as all of these adults around her do. All because she kind of is the

946
01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:18,860
person that's in charge of this Godzilla Prediction Network,

947
01:06:19,020 --> 01:06:21,760
which we kind of had a little bit minutiae discussion that you'll hear in the

948
01:06:22,260 --> 01:06:25,400
outtakes later, but I'll kind of bring it up here too. So there's a network,

949
01:06:25,900 --> 01:06:29,280
it's loosely put together. It's very anarchist the way that it is. They all have

950
01:06:29,780 --> 01:06:32,880
a buy in for this collective, right? Where they all spend.

951
01:06:33,380 --> 01:06:36,040
They explained it in one of the clips earlier that we end up hearing where

952
01:06:36,540 --> 01:06:38,840
they all have a buy in, they spend a certain amount of yen and then

953
01:06:39,340 --> 01:06:43,640
they have annual dues that they all are responsible for to help fund this collective

954
01:06:44,140 --> 01:06:47,880
network. And then they all share in the financial

955
01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:51,650
windfalls and earnings of whatever information they draw from studying

956
01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:55,760
Godzilla together. And each individual person or group of

957
01:06:56,260 --> 01:06:59,440
people that pay their dues have a unit or a prediction

958
01:06:59,940 --> 01:07:03,400
unit that they also self fund all of their equipment and go out and have

959
01:07:03,900 --> 01:07:07,559
like seismic equipment and all of this kind of stuff. It's a really cool collective

960
01:07:08,059 --> 01:07:11,760
and it's very kind of anarchist and leftist and just really fucking neat that

961
01:07:12,260 --> 01:07:15,280
they put this into the film. That that's like the solution is the scientists

962
01:07:15,780 --> 01:07:17,760
all get together and like, nah, we're all just going to buy in and do

963
01:07:18,260 --> 01:07:20,720
this and then whatever financial windfall that comes out of it, we're all going to

964
01:07:21,220 --> 01:07:25,820
share. It's fucking cool. The gp, the gpu.

965
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,820
United or union. Yeah, well, it's the gpun,

966
01:07:29,060 --> 01:07:32,900
right? Yeah, there you go. Yeah, yeah, the gpu,

967
01:07:33,060 --> 01:07:35,060
Godzilla Prediction United Network.

968
01:07:36,180 --> 01:07:39,499
And each individual unit is a unit that is united into

969
01:07:39,999 --> 01:07:43,140
the network. And they are, you know, hammer and sickling it up. And I think

970
01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:47,260
that's fucking sweet. All right, are we ready to move into the run

971
01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:50,700
to the end then? I. Yeah, I think so. All right, well, let's do it

972
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:53,820
then. So the run to the end starts with the main human commander about to

973
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:57,560
blow up the building with our main, main character dad still in it and the

974
01:07:58,060 --> 01:08:01,360
reporter and a child just outside of it because they didn't think

975
01:08:01,860 --> 01:08:05,080
things through. I Guess. And child safety is not a thing that the Japanese are

976
01:08:05,580 --> 01:08:09,440
concerned with. The military commander

977
01:08:09,940 --> 01:08:12,640
explodes the building just below the ship.

978
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:16,160
And there is a smoke pattern that is comically shaped

979
01:08:16,660 --> 01:08:19,920
exactly like the ship was. Almost cartoon like. Like the

980
01:08:20,420 --> 01:08:22,560
joke of the cartoon where you would see like a smoke outline of a person

981
01:08:23,060 --> 01:08:25,810
with a line when they run away or something like that. That's exactly what it

982
01:08:26,310 --> 01:08:30,090
looked like. And then when the smoke finally clears away from the ship, it's revealed

983
01:08:30,590 --> 01:08:34,250
to still be just absolutely fine and hovering right there. But the building just below

984
01:08:34,750 --> 01:08:38,210
it is all scorched and burnt to a crisp and blackened for a few

985
01:08:38,710 --> 01:08:41,930
floors. It just looks nasty. The alien ship

986
01:08:42,430 --> 01:08:46,010
decides to show off and literally explodes the whole goddamn building.

987
01:08:46,170 --> 01:08:50,090
Sending the dad to slide down the elevator cables with

988
01:08:50,590 --> 01:08:54,320
his bare hands and causing a terrific model explosion shot

989
01:08:54,820 --> 01:08:58,080
or two to be mixed in with all of this. I was going to talk

990
01:08:58,580 --> 01:09:02,000
about how that sliding down the cable using his bare hands would destroy his

991
01:09:02,500 --> 01:09:05,800
hands. That he should have used a belt or something like that. But when the

992
01:09:06,300 --> 01:09:09,360
daughter and reporter go in what is left of the building looking for the dad,

993
01:09:09,860 --> 01:09:12,840
he emerges from a floor grate with his hand all wrapped up in like a

994
01:09:13,340 --> 01:09:17,080
really bloodied bandage. He's also sufficiently injured enough everywhere else and covered in

995
01:09:17,580 --> 01:09:20,440
blood to make this as believable enough to where I'm going to let it go.

996
01:09:20,940 --> 01:09:23,360
But seriously, if you're going to try and slide down a metal cable like that,

997
01:09:23,580 --> 01:09:26,620
you will destroy your hands. You will probably lose some fingers to it.

998
01:09:26,780 --> 01:09:30,260
Don't do that. Yeah. And a good portion of the palm

999
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:33,500
of your hand. Yeah. You're gonna lose a lot of shit, man. It's gonna rip

1000
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,620
up your body. You need to use a belt or you need to use something

1001
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,380
else like a chain to wrap around there that you can tighten to control how

1002
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:45,660
far fast you slide down. Too. Gonna be hard to operate that electron

1003
01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:49,740
microscope. Right? All right.

1004
01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:54,450
So the daughter hugs her dad and cries. And we have this wonderful reunite moment.

1005
01:09:54,950 --> 01:09:58,650
That's very touching. And he proudly displays the laptop to the reporter with a

1006
01:09:59,150 --> 01:10:02,450
smile. And then they cut from that to our 14th level.

1007
01:10:02,770 --> 01:10:06,610
Nice try, asshole. See here,

1008
01:10:07,090 --> 01:10:10,770
they want to change our atmosphere to make it more suitable to their living

1009
01:10:11,270 --> 01:10:13,970
conditions. They want to build their own empire on Earth.

1010
01:10:14,930 --> 01:10:18,570
But they need more information. Look at this. Why are they

1011
01:10:19,070 --> 01:10:21,820
so interested? Interested in Godzilla? Give me your pin box. You.

1012
01:10:24,460 --> 01:10:28,500
I don't get it. Something without form can

1013
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,660
take on another one. Regenerator G1.

1014
01:10:34,140 --> 01:10:52,090
Godzilla's Enter the bay with

1015
01:10:52,590 --> 01:10:56,210
this. Godzilla stomps his way towards the alien spaceship and is ready to kick some

1016
01:10:56,710 --> 01:11:00,570
ass and take some names. They are using a lot of green screen compositing for

1017
01:11:01,070 --> 01:11:04,570
the destruction happening while he's walking through the cityscape. And it leaves a bunch of

1018
01:11:05,070 --> 01:11:08,250
dust and debris moving in weird directions. That doesn't look great. And it just makes

1019
01:11:08,750 --> 01:11:10,290
me sad because the model would have looked so much better.

1020
01:11:12,130 --> 01:11:15,290
The lighting on the suit does look fantastic during those shots though.

1021
01:11:15,790 --> 01:11:17,750
So I gotta give them props for when they do it right. Man, that suit

1022
01:11:18,250 --> 01:11:21,630
looks fucking terrific. It stayed constant through.

1023
01:11:21,790 --> 01:11:25,270
Yeah, yeah. When Godzilla gets close to the ship, it flies

1024
01:11:25,770 --> 01:11:29,430
off to the top of another tower and weird tendril things break through a

1025
01:11:29,930 --> 01:11:33,470
model of a city street and it looks terrific for sure because it's an actual

1026
01:11:33,970 --> 01:11:37,070
model. You see the actual tendrils breaking through and it looks great.

1027
01:11:38,190 --> 01:11:41,590
The tendrils break from underground and completely ensnare Big

1028
01:11:42,090 --> 01:11:45,390
G, taking him down to the ground before dragging him across the ground

1029
01:11:45,470 --> 01:11:48,710
and and towards the ship in a very violent and fuck

1030
01:11:49,210 --> 01:11:52,550
your couch kind of way. This obviously pisses

1031
01:11:53,050 --> 01:11:57,230
off Big G, who stands up, uses his atomic breath to heat up and melt

1032
01:11:57,310 --> 01:12:00,790
most of those things off of his spines. And then

1033
01:12:01,290 --> 01:12:04,390
the atomic breath reaches his throat to fire it off, which he

1034
01:12:04,890 --> 01:12:08,910
does, blasting the tower and the ship which takes off to swarm by

1035
01:12:08,990 --> 01:12:12,310
Big G, who catches it with his tail, sending it

1036
01:12:12,810 --> 01:12:16,780
spiraling through the air. The ship stabilizes and then blasts Big G, who stands

1037
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:20,400
and and takes the blast for what seems like forever before

1038
01:12:20,900 --> 01:12:23,960
it takes him to the ground. The ship flies off to the top of a

1039
01:12:24,460 --> 01:12:28,120
tower above and Big G stands up to try and find where the ship went.

1040
01:12:28,620 --> 01:12:31,720
We see the ship is above Big G and it hits him with what looks

1041
01:12:32,220 --> 01:12:36,360
like some kind of gravity wave or force field that crushes him and pushes

1042
01:12:36,860 --> 01:12:40,440
him down. It then knocks a tower down on top of him with that same

1043
01:12:40,940 --> 01:12:44,480
wave. The humans are terrified and we see the CGI devastation

1044
01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:48,360
left behind from the building collapse. The ship flies above the

1045
01:12:48,860 --> 01:12:52,420
wreckage and delight forms, which prompts more expository

1046
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,340
dialogue and are 15. What's that?

1047
01:12:56,460 --> 01:13:00,620
The tentacles again? The tendrils pull out the Godzilla

1048
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:04,780
special sauce and then this stuff from the ship regenerates from

1049
01:13:05,020 --> 01:13:08,500
that power into what looks like some kind

1050
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:12,900
of an Independence Day alien done bad CGI wise that

1051
01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:16,900
is apparently called the Millennium. I guess. I don't know.

1052
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,180
That's what Wikipedia said when I was looking up some video facts in the background.

1053
01:13:20,580 --> 01:13:23,740
This version of the alien that looks kind of like a bad, independent,

1054
01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:28,100
badly done CGI Independence Day alien. It's Called the Millennium. I was getting

1055
01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:32,060
those vibes. And War of the Worlds walkers. Yeah,

1056
01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:35,419
a little bit. Sort of combined a little bit more of like an organic version

1057
01:13:35,919 --> 01:13:38,380
of the War of the World's Walkers, I'd say. But it also has the head

1058
01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:42,940
shape, which was probably where, let's face it, the Independence Day aliens were

1059
01:13:43,440 --> 01:13:46,740
probably influenced a little bit by the aliens from War of the Worlds too.

1060
01:13:46,820 --> 01:13:50,500
So there's that. Yeah, yeah. But anyway, this Millennium hover

1061
01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:54,720
the frame, prompting people to talk about him in our 16th clip.

1062
01:13:55,220 --> 01:13:58,320
What's going on? It's regenerator G1.

1063
01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:02,400
He's using it to adapt to our atmosphere. At the end of the

1064
01:14:02,900 --> 01:14:06,760
clip, Godzilla explodes out of the rubble and fires off some CGI

1065
01:14:07,260 --> 01:14:10,800
atomic breath right at the alien ship. And that sends off

1066
01:14:11,300 --> 01:14:14,960
a ton of sparks and explosions while it's hitting everywhere it hits,

1067
01:14:15,460 --> 01:14:19,200
the ship explodes into bigger fiery chunks, and one of them hurdles

1068
01:14:19,700 --> 01:14:23,700
two towards the humans. Godzilla watches triumphantly as the exploded ship

1069
01:14:23,780 --> 01:14:27,900
burns. And then the mutated form of the Millennium emerges

1070
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:31,620
from behind the wrecked ship in its next form, which is known

1071
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:35,340
as Orga, apparently. And since this looks like a

1072
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,500
person in a suit, we finally know that we are about to get some Kaiju

1073
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:43,300
stomping badassery. So let's fucking get into it. Yes.

1074
01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:47,300
Finally. This battle starts as a slobber knocker sort of

1075
01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:51,440
tooth and claw affair with a decent amount of slamming and shov where

1076
01:14:51,940 --> 01:14:55,680
Godzilla headbutt happens here as well. It's a really nice sequence that shows off

1077
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:59,120
how much bigger the form of Orga actually

1078
01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:02,440
is than Godzilla that it's been mutating from. And then there

1079
01:15:02,940 --> 01:15:06,120
is, like, a claw smash that puts Godzilla on the back foot because the

1080
01:15:06,620 --> 01:15:10,600
claw is almost as big as Godzilla on this fucking monster. And then Orga

1081
01:15:11,100 --> 01:15:14,720
then fires off that back cannon thing. Apparently, like, the ship is made out

1082
01:15:15,220 --> 01:15:17,920
of some of the same DNA that the alien is because it has the same

1083
01:15:18,420 --> 01:15:21,960
cannon that the ship does. But I totally thought the ship turned into it

1084
01:15:22,460 --> 01:15:26,180
at first. Yeah, but no, no, it doesn't really turn into it. It's. The ship

1085
01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:29,820
and the alien are like. Like using some of the same biotechnical DNA,

1086
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:32,980
I guess. I don't. It's like the fly they spliced a little. Yeah, maybe.

1087
01:15:33,480 --> 01:15:37,500
I don't know. But anyway, it has a back cannon thing, and it blasts Godzilla

1088
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:41,700
back into the building, sticking him there by the spines and plates sticking

1089
01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:45,180
out of his back. I was really taken aback by that for a second.

1090
01:15:45,500 --> 01:15:49,500
I'm amazed that it took them this long to think of Trapping Godzilla

1091
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:53,490
with his back plates. But that. But that was fucking cool. Watching him have to

1092
01:15:53,990 --> 01:15:56,370
sort of snap his way out of the building like that whenever it got shoved

1093
01:15:56,870 --> 01:16:00,610
in there. Like, you know, he gets dropped to the ground from above by Mothra

1094
01:16:01,110 --> 01:16:04,650
and so many flying opponents. And never until now have they

1095
01:16:05,150 --> 01:16:07,810
actually had him get stuck on his spines that he has to wiggle his way

1096
01:16:08,310 --> 01:16:11,450
loose. Right. Like, why has it taken him this long to like 1999

1097
01:16:11,950 --> 01:16:14,890
to think of that? I mean, the technology had to arrive, I guess.

1098
01:16:17,210 --> 01:16:20,690
Maybe. It does look cool though. I really like watching him snap and break his

1099
01:16:21,190 --> 01:16:23,750
way out of the building with his spine. Still. I thought that was fucking cool.

1100
01:16:24,250 --> 01:16:27,750
I really dug it. Yeah, it makes total sense that, you know,

1101
01:16:28,250 --> 01:16:31,990
somebody thought about it previously, they just weren't allowed to or couldn't pull it off.

1102
01:16:32,490 --> 01:16:35,710
Maybe I think it's because the spines before were never really like a lot more

1103
01:16:36,210 --> 01:16:39,830
rigid, so they couldn't make it believable. But this is the first Godzilla suit with

1104
01:16:40,330 --> 01:16:43,710
some really rigid spines, so maybe that's the case too. All right, so the ship

1105
01:16:44,210 --> 01:16:47,710
goes back into barbed arrow. Yeah, yeah. The ship goes back into the air and

1106
01:16:48,210 --> 01:16:51,910
Orga then does a tall building in a single bound kind of leap that puts

1107
01:16:52,410 --> 01:16:55,850
it way out of Godzilla's reach. His giant Superman esque

1108
01:16:56,350 --> 01:16:59,890
jump distracts Godzilla so the ship can smack into him

1109
01:17:00,390 --> 01:17:04,010
from the side. Once back up, Big G fires up the atomic breath

1110
01:17:04,510 --> 01:17:08,690
and the ship seems to sort of sacrifice itself to save the Orga creature,

1111
01:17:09,190 --> 01:17:12,890
which miraculously is very hurt by the atomic breath. Once the ship fully

1112
01:17:13,390 --> 01:17:16,650
explodes and it only gets a little bit of the hit, he seems particularly vulnerable

1113
01:17:17,150 --> 01:17:20,770
is what I'm getting at. The entry on Orgra heals

1114
01:17:20,930 --> 01:17:24,290
really, really quickly if you as well though. So the Godzilla,

1115
01:17:24,790 --> 01:17:27,690
like it heals like Godzilla style, but like really, really quickly. But it also causes

1116
01:17:28,190 --> 01:17:32,090
him to mutate again because whatever parts got burned, like, then stick out and

1117
01:17:32,590 --> 01:17:36,210
become weirder and like misshapen. So like, it's doing some serious,

1118
01:17:36,710 --> 01:17:40,210
like cellular damage that the OR creatures not repairing. Right.

1119
01:17:40,710 --> 01:17:44,170
I'm guessing with a Godzilla's breath. I think that's what they're implying. They don't

1120
01:17:44,670 --> 01:17:47,090
explain it to us, they just show us. And that's what we're supposed to assume.

1121
01:17:47,490 --> 01:17:51,090
Watch it. Just enjoy. Big G comes in to do some tail

1122
01:17:51,590 --> 01:17:54,990
stomping damage. As we return tooth and claw.

1123
01:17:55,490 --> 01:17:58,750
Classic wrestling bout. Before Orga clamps down

1124
01:17:58,830 --> 01:18:02,590
onto Godzilla's arm and starts using some CGI created power

1125
01:18:03,090 --> 01:18:05,870
to siphon the good stuff out of Big G and gain More power. Not sure

1126
01:18:06,370 --> 01:18:09,430
if they're taking the Regenerator X here or they're just taking something else. But you

1127
01:18:09,930 --> 01:18:12,950
know what? The scientist knows exactly what's happening and he's going to explain it to

1128
01:18:13,450 --> 01:18:14,750
us in our next clip.

1129
01:18:17,710 --> 01:18:18,510
Look at that.

1130
01:18:22,340 --> 01:18:25,860
Trying to become a Godzilla clone. The look on the face of the main military

1131
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:30,260
guy during that clip alone made it worth recording. Orga seems to be particularly

1132
01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:34,660
vulnerable to the atomic breath as one blast rips away a big chunk

1133
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:38,380
from the top of his head. But the regeneration Orga stole

1134
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:42,220
seems to really be out of control as the healing bit on its head

1135
01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:45,940
mutates and looks like it can't really handle regenerating as well as

1136
01:18:46,440 --> 01:18:49,550
what Godzilla does. Because again, we talked about it earlier, those weird moves, misshapen,

1137
01:18:50,050 --> 01:18:53,710
sort of like tumor looking things start growing out of this version of Orga as

1138
01:18:54,210 --> 01:18:58,150
well. Godzilla gives him a full on fireball,

1139
01:18:58,310 --> 01:19:01,830
huge explosion inducing amount of atomic

1140
01:19:02,330 --> 01:19:06,150
breath blasting at Orga. And after the fire finally dies

1141
01:19:06,650 --> 01:19:10,030
out, it emerges from the fire blast and smoke all fucked up

1142
01:19:10,530 --> 01:19:14,150
and smoking, making all sorts of like super hurt monster creature noises

1143
01:19:14,390 --> 01:19:18,030
as it does this. And we see it slowly start to CGI

1144
01:19:18,530 --> 01:19:22,100
heal yet again, which then accelerates until it is fully healed.

1145
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:26,700
And then the mouth and jaw mutate on the Orga into a huge sort

1146
01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:30,980
of undersea monstrosity style mouth. I don't know how to describe it. It looks like

1147
01:19:31,480 --> 01:19:35,380
the unfolding of like some kind of anemone or something deep in the ocean

1148
01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:39,620
that you really shouldn't be seeing. But it just looked nasty, like maybe

1149
01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:43,820
some like viper extending portions, but like parts of it also look like a sea

1150
01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:47,100
anemone the way that it on. I can't pronounce that word right, but like it

1151
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,060
just looked like one of those things like just unfolding too. It just looked just

1152
01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:53,560
Lovecraft nightmare. Not right. That's basically what I'm getting at.

1153
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:57,520
Yeah, there you go. The mouth and

1154
01:19:58,020 --> 01:20:01,280
jaw mutate on the Orga and they open up even further. And then

1155
01:20:01,780 --> 01:20:05,520
for some reason Godzilla walks right into and is partially swallowed

1156
01:20:06,020 --> 01:20:09,680
by this new mouth. This leaves everyone perplexed as to why Godzilla did

1157
01:20:10,180 --> 01:20:14,400
this, including the audience. And we see Orga drawing more power and

1158
01:20:14,900 --> 01:20:18,200
that good stuff out of Godzilla and starts to make itself more of a clone.

1159
01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:21,670
It even starts to grow a back plate or two.

1160
01:20:21,750 --> 01:20:25,430
Until Godzilla slowly turns red in the back plate areas,

1161
01:20:25,590 --> 01:20:29,510
which then accelerates to all of him glowing really bright red

1162
01:20:30,010 --> 01:20:34,070
and turning into a flaming Godzilla, causing the orca to explode

1163
01:20:34,570 --> 01:20:38,390
into fiery chunks and leveling the building. Surrounding them. It's like

1164
01:20:38,630 --> 01:20:42,350
almost like mini meltdown that he does. It explodes everywhere. The smoke from

1165
01:20:42,850 --> 01:20:46,750
this clears and we see Godzilla there with electrical discharge and sparks

1166
01:20:47,250 --> 01:20:50,480
shooting across across his back plates. There is a shot of the arms

1167
01:20:50,980 --> 01:20:54,480
and feet of Orga emerging from the clearing smoke and Godzilla

1168
01:20:54,980 --> 01:20:58,440
bellows out a huge challenge roar or two before it is revealed

1169
01:20:58,940 --> 01:21:02,320
that Orga falls over dead and the top half of it is smoldering

1170
01:21:02,820 --> 01:21:06,640
and blackened and just fucking gone. Big G roars again

1171
01:21:07,140 --> 01:21:10,280
in triumph. With eight minutes of scream time left. They focus

1172
01:21:10,780 --> 01:21:13,960
in on Orca decaying and collapsing, and we get

1173
01:21:14,460 --> 01:21:17,910
some miniature expository dialogue in our pent ultimate Glip

1174
01:21:17,990 --> 01:21:21,150
Boy. That's ironic. It woke up after

1175
01:21:21,650 --> 01:21:25,030
60 million years and then Godzilla destroyed it the very next day.

1176
01:21:27,910 --> 01:21:28,470
Yeah.

1177
01:21:32,549 --> 01:21:33,670
Godzilla's coming.

1178
01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:45,360
All get out of here.

1179
01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:46,320
Hurry.

1180
01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:01,200
Come on, run.

1181
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:06,320
I've never seen Godzilla this close before.

1182
01:22:18,440 --> 01:22:20,280
Come on. Leave me,

1183
01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:28,840
daddy.

1184
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:35,880
Godzilla.

1185
01:22:58,230 --> 01:23:01,710
So what you heard there is Godzilla walking over to the building, staring down.

1186
01:23:02,210 --> 01:23:05,590
The guy that wants to be all tough and brave, Big G puts a claw

1187
01:23:06,190 --> 01:23:10,110
in the building where the guy is standing to

1188
01:23:10,610 --> 01:23:14,070
show him how insignificant he is. And the man lights up a cigarette

1189
01:23:14,570 --> 01:23:17,470
and fucks around. As you heard at the end of the clip, he finds out

1190
01:23:17,970 --> 01:23:21,790
when Godzilla smashes the fucking building, sending that dude plummeting to his death

1191
01:23:21,950 --> 01:23:25,550
to be crushed in the falling debris on the way. And really, as much

1192
01:23:26,050 --> 01:23:29,070
of a prick as that guy was, it's a fitting death. Yeah, I thought,

1193
01:23:29,570 --> 01:23:31,630
looks like we're gonna have to send some more flowers.

1194
01:23:32,590 --> 01:23:36,150
Exactly. What a fucking prick. The dad from

1195
01:23:36,650 --> 01:23:40,130
the PSU unit screams the dude's name as he falls to his death. And we

1196
01:23:40,630 --> 01:23:43,210
see Godzilla turn and casually stroll away.

1197
01:23:43,450 --> 01:23:47,290
And as always, there has to be final human thoughts on Big G,

1198
01:23:47,610 --> 01:23:50,810
which is our final clip. We scientists

1199
01:23:51,310 --> 01:23:53,450
produced this monster Godzilla,

1200
01:23:54,090 --> 01:23:57,450
and ever since we tried to destroy

1201
01:23:57,950 --> 01:24:01,530
him. But then why? Why does he keep

1202
01:24:02,030 --> 01:24:06,760
protecting us? Maybe because Godzilla

1203
01:24:07,260 --> 01:24:10,400
is inside each one of us. The end of the clip has Godzilla light it

1204
01:24:10,900 --> 01:24:14,280
up and fire a bunch of atomic breath across a large swath

1205
01:24:14,780 --> 01:24:18,000
of the city before a huge fiery explosion covers everything in

1206
01:24:18,500 --> 01:24:22,394
sight. And they roll those fucking credits. Cinema PsyOps

1207
01:24:22,526 --> 01:24:25,040
10 years.

1208
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,800
10 years. All right, I freely admit the story is

1209
01:24:29,300 --> 01:24:32,480
all over the place. And it's difficult to follow more or less.

1210
01:24:32,980 --> 01:24:36,730
You just have to to boil it down to alien spaceship crash land away from

1211
01:24:37,230 --> 01:24:41,130
sun, volcanic explosions under the sea. Hold it

1212
01:24:41,630 --> 01:24:44,890
and trap it in place until man comes to fuck around, finds out

1213
01:24:45,390 --> 01:24:48,730
what it is. Godzilla saves the day once again and destroys the ship

1214
01:24:49,230 --> 01:24:52,250
and the creature that it was contained therein. Even though this creature was trying to

1215
01:24:52,750 --> 01:24:55,330
take over the Earth and basically inhabit it and make it its own planet.

1216
01:24:55,830 --> 01:24:58,010
Kind of the same plot that we've had all along. But in this case,

1217
01:24:58,510 --> 01:25:01,890
it's like this weird semi sentient sort of creature.

1218
01:25:01,970 --> 01:25:05,510
Almost like the ship version of this reminded a Flight of the

1219
01:25:06,010 --> 01:25:08,470
Navigator, right? Like where it doesn't have a pilot and it's a ship that just

1220
01:25:08,970 --> 01:25:11,110
kind of does its own thing and you have no clue what's going on.

1221
01:25:11,610 --> 01:25:14,670
And it looks so much like that ship, doesn't it? Yeah, Flight of the Navigator

1222
01:25:15,170 --> 01:25:18,790
plus an oyster out of its shell and a

1223
01:25:19,290 --> 01:25:22,510
prosthetic nose. Well, yeah, the monster was the oyster out of

1224
01:25:23,010 --> 01:25:26,470
its shell with the prosthetic nose. Yeah, yeah.

1225
01:25:26,970 --> 01:25:30,150
And then there was like the Millennium or whatever it was

1226
01:25:30,650 --> 01:25:33,870
version of the alien, which I'm assuming that the alien

1227
01:25:33,950 --> 01:25:37,770
is the ship. The ship is the alien because it coming off of it

1228
01:25:38,270 --> 01:25:41,930
and all of that. And the ship projected out the cells

1229
01:25:42,430 --> 01:25:46,210
of the alien and combined them with the regenerative properties of the G cells.

1230
01:25:46,710 --> 01:25:50,370
So the alien was basically dead. But the ship is almost like

1231
01:25:50,870 --> 01:25:54,250
a stasis pod that it travels in that kept it alive.

1232
01:25:54,750 --> 01:25:57,850
And then the stasis pod is what used the tendrils of the stasis

1233
01:25:58,350 --> 01:26:02,050
pod to learn about Godzilla and then harvest the Godzilla cells that it needed to

1234
01:26:02,550 --> 01:26:05,850
bring its alien back. So it's just a stasis pod doing its job.

1235
01:26:06,350 --> 01:26:08,640
And if man would have just left it where they found it and not fuck

1236
01:26:08,790 --> 01:26:12,550
around, we would have never found out any of this. Yeah, man fucks

1237
01:26:13,050 --> 01:26:16,870
around, finds out Godzilla saves the day. Roll credits. Yeah, yeah, that's basically it.

1238
01:26:17,370 --> 01:26:19,470
I mean, they try to do a few more things with the way that the

1239
01:26:19,970 --> 01:26:23,550
alien mutates and they just, like it has multiple forms. And because that's just.

1240
01:26:24,050 --> 01:26:27,190
That's just Japanese entertainment, man. Your villain's gonna have multiple forms and

1241
01:26:27,690 --> 01:26:31,270
change and you'll have different types of suits and different attacks on Godzilla. And sometimes

1242
01:26:31,770 --> 01:26:34,600
it'll be a composite monster that breaks up into a bunch of smaller monsters and

1243
01:26:35,100 --> 01:26:38,400
then menaces people. Just because it's a way to try and keep your interest and

1244
01:26:38,900 --> 01:26:41,720
have you save your budget by having smaller monsters attack people.

1245
01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,480
They did all sorts of different shit like that with these Godzilla movies. But I

1246
01:26:47,980 --> 01:26:51,280
really enjoyed this one. And I really want to just state, this is my

1247
01:26:51,780 --> 01:26:55,200
favorite look of Godzilla is the millennium Godzilla, the 2000 era Godzilla

1248
01:26:55,700 --> 01:26:59,600
with the giant hardened back plates that are sort of pinkish. The way that

1249
01:27:00,100 --> 01:27:03,760
they light up and glow fiery red. And you watch the

1250
01:27:04,260 --> 01:27:08,060
sort of fire build up the back from the lower midsection of Godzilla,

1251
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:10,860
like the tail and everything lights up all at once. But then it just kind

1252
01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:14,620
of builds up his back as the fire reaches up his throat and across the

1253
01:27:15,120 --> 01:27:18,980
back spines and everything. For the atomic breath, it just looks sinister. The sculpt,

1254
01:27:19,480 --> 01:27:22,860
we. We talked about this, but the scales in the sculpt for the

1255
01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:27,420
Millennium Godzillas are incredible. The detail that they end up putting into the suits on

1256
01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:31,180
these are just absolutely fantastic. And this one is, like I said,

1257
01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:35,180
it's my favorite. I absolutely love this look, including the way the scales are sculpted

1258
01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:39,520
and everything. I spent a shit ton of money on an action for this specific

1259
01:27:39,600 --> 01:27:42,960
version of Godzilla. I actually spent a shit ton

1260
01:27:43,460 --> 01:27:46,320
of money because I did a variant for the colors. It has the original Godzilla

1261
01:27:46,820 --> 01:27:50,200
colors with all of these crazy back plates, spines, and all of that stuff

1262
01:27:50,700 --> 01:27:54,720
to it, you know. So, yeah, I absolutely love

1263
01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:58,560
the look of this Godzilla. Will admit, the movie itself, kind of a bit of

1264
01:27:59,060 --> 01:28:02,640
a mess, kind of hard to follow. Not much of a story. Takes way

1265
01:28:03,140 --> 01:28:07,070
too long for us to get Godzilla, of fighting another Kaiju. But we get amazing

1266
01:28:07,570 --> 01:28:10,750
sequences of Godzilla destroying stuff when we reintroduce him. Get that cool

1267
01:28:11,250 --> 01:28:14,550
sequence of him biting that ship, get to watch him destroy a small power plant.

1268
01:28:15,030 --> 01:28:18,310
I really enjoyed the GPU people, particularly the guy and his daughter.

1269
01:28:18,630 --> 01:28:21,910
They're like some of the least annoying humans in any of these films that I've

1270
01:28:22,410 --> 01:28:25,630
seen. So overall, the film's really enjoyable for me. And when we finally get

1271
01:28:26,130 --> 01:28:29,030
to the fights, the fights are fucking great. Yeah,

1272
01:28:29,350 --> 01:28:32,550
and it's, you know, it's under an hour 45. Yeah,

1273
01:28:32,870 --> 01:28:36,570
it's one hour. And like, it's short. It's just under

1274
01:28:37,070 --> 01:28:40,330
an hour and 39 minutes. It's basically like it breaks up into 33 minute chunks

1275
01:28:40,830 --> 01:28:44,370
for the story, the way that I did it for my thirds. And almost

1276
01:28:44,870 --> 01:28:48,450
perfectly, it breaks up into like 33 minutes to

1277
01:28:48,950 --> 01:28:52,489
36 minutes, give or take. So it was great. It actually was really easy

1278
01:28:52,989 --> 01:28:56,050
to cover this way. I actually understood it a lot more than I ever did

1279
01:28:56,550 --> 01:28:59,250
because I'll be honest with you, I never paid attention to any of the dialogue

1280
01:28:59,750 --> 01:29:01,930
in this before I actually covered it on the show. I'm just here for the

1281
01:29:02,430 --> 01:29:05,250
fights and I love the way the suit looks and I don't care. And there's

1282
01:29:05,750 --> 01:29:08,200
also the downside of I noticed a lot more than what I normally do,

1283
01:29:08,430 --> 01:29:11,790
like the edges for the compositing and that issue with

1284
01:29:12,030 --> 01:29:15,630
Godzilla walking on Water for a little bit,

1285
01:29:18,110 --> 01:29:21,870
you know, but it's fine. It's nothing. That's going to Little tiddly things.

1286
01:29:22,030 --> 01:29:25,230
Yeah. Again. Or piddly things. Yeah, whatever the word is. Minor little

1287
01:29:25,730 --> 01:29:27,830
things that'll kind of make me chuckle the next time I'm watching it after I

1288
01:29:28,330 --> 01:29:32,110
noticed it. But everything overall is terrific. And this is one of the scariest

1289
01:29:32,190 --> 01:29:35,670
and most horrifying Godzillas that they've made yet at this point.

1290
01:29:36,170 --> 01:29:39,860
Like. Like, it's really fucking good. He's very terrifying. The only thing I don't

1291
01:29:40,360 --> 01:29:42,540
like about the Millennium Series, which I'll just talk about it now because we might

1292
01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:46,060
as well acknowledge it. Almost every single film in the Millennium Series is a reboot.

1293
01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:50,140
And they ignore almost every film that came before them. Like, there's Godzilla

1294
01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:54,580
1954, then this movie, then the next movie is there's Godzilla 1954,

1295
01:29:54,740 --> 01:29:58,220
then the next movie. It's like every

1296
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:02,860
single one. They were trying to reboot a franchise and try again. And it's weird

1297
01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:05,970
that they just aren't happy with the choices that I made in the previous one.

1298
01:30:06,470 --> 01:30:09,090
And then they just abandon all hope and then just reset. So we've got a

1299
01:30:09,590 --> 01:30:13,090
lot of reset buttons happening here. It's kind of weird that that's also the one

1300
01:30:13,590 --> 01:30:17,450
where. Because there's so many resets that it's almost like this show got reset

1301
01:30:17,950 --> 01:30:21,010
because of the resets in the movies. The ripple effect is large.

1302
01:30:21,810 --> 01:30:25,090
Absolutely. You have anything else to say about it before we go into the story

1303
01:30:25,590 --> 01:30:28,290
time where you can kind of tell the story about your son being a Godzilla

1304
01:30:28,790 --> 01:30:32,180
fanatic? Oh, no. Know I'm good. All right, well, we're gonna take a break here.

1305
01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:36,700
We're gonna play. Also released in 1999, just like the

1306
01:30:36,940 --> 01:30:40,260
film Godzilla 2000, the song Last

1307
01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:44,060
Kiss, which is a cover that Pearl Jam did, but it was released in 1999,

1308
01:30:44,560 --> 01:30:47,340
and that's on the pirate radio edit. And right after that, we'll have Darren.

1309
01:30:51,500 --> 01:30:55,220
Concepts we deal with daily is the worst. This is

1310
01:30:55,720 --> 01:30:58,990
in one the of authorized philosophical conversation. And its duration has been

1311
01:30:59,490 --> 01:31:02,990
deducted from your work hours. What the hell was that? Boris the

1312
01:31:03,490 --> 01:31:07,750
boss made some tweaks to the BABS unit designs and did his bad marketing

1313
01:31:08,250 --> 01:31:11,949
thing to make it his own. He called it the Biological Organism Rescue

1314
01:31:12,449 --> 01:31:15,750
Inhabitation System. Boris for short. Clearly someone else named it.

1315
01:31:16,250 --> 01:31:19,310
It's not immaturely, perverse or spiteful. That's fair. Back on track, though.

1316
01:31:19,810 --> 01:31:23,520
Okay, Testing paradox System substantiation is going to prove a bit tricky.

1317
01:31:24,020 --> 01:31:27,520
How so? Well, in order for Us to know sustenation is working.

1318
01:31:27,680 --> 01:31:31,080
We have to knowingly create a paradox. And in order to create

1319
01:31:31,580 --> 01:31:35,840
a paradox, we have to make a change in time that cannot self sustain.

1320
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:39,880
So like we are trying Grandfather, maybe Fermi. What's an easy one

1321
01:31:40,380 --> 01:31:44,480
to create and attempt to sustain? I think the sort of thought exercise

1322
01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:46,480
ones can be eliminated.

1323
01:31:51,880 --> 01:31:55,240
So Darren got away with the thing that Matt never gets away with. He was

1324
01:31:55,740 --> 01:31:59,600
actually singing in the background. You're not gonna hear it in the outtakes probably

1325
01:32:00,100 --> 01:32:03,440
because, well, we're talking over, you know, copyrighted music and you know, that defeats

1326
01:32:03,940 --> 01:32:05,760
the purpose of a pirate radio edit to remove that out of there. But,

1327
01:32:06,260 --> 01:32:08,520
you know, doesn't fucking matter. What does matter is just know that it happened.

1328
01:32:09,020 --> 01:32:12,640
Yeah, that definitely happened. And I let him get away with it because he's

1329
01:32:13,140 --> 01:32:16,500
Darren mostly. And then also he was actually somewhat on key. So.

1330
01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:19,900
Yeah, there we go. Sometimes drummers can sing.

1331
01:32:21,340 --> 01:32:24,460
Hey, just look at Phil Collins. And then give us your story time.

1332
01:32:31,980 --> 01:32:33,500
Story time,

1333
01:32:36,540 --> 01:32:40,220
story time. All right, so tell us about how he's such a fan

1334
01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:44,740
of Godzilla now. Yeah, so, you know, I don't think I've ever actually talked

1335
01:32:45,240 --> 01:32:47,160
about this here, and I don't know if I ever talked about it on my

1336
01:32:47,660 --> 01:32:51,040
show or not. But yeah, I know you definitely not told me about it on

1337
01:32:51,540 --> 01:32:55,080
this show because me being the huge Godzilla fanatic that I am, I'm eager to

1338
01:32:55,580 --> 01:32:59,720
hear about it. Oh, okay. So probably when he was

1339
01:33:00,220 --> 01:33:03,600
around six or seven, he saw his first

1340
01:33:04,100 --> 01:33:07,120
Godzilla movie. Yeah, I.

1341
01:33:07,620 --> 01:33:10,320
I don't remember how we got around. It's not like, you know. Yeah, I think

1342
01:33:10,820 --> 01:33:13,120
it was just like, okay, I think you're old enough to check these out.

1343
01:33:13,620 --> 01:33:17,560
I, you know, you like dinosaurs. Let me show you something that's not a dinosaur,

1344
01:33:18,060 --> 01:33:21,660
but that we like. And you might like. And he and his mom

1345
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:25,980
watch a lot of the. Sometimes I find out later that

1346
01:33:26,480 --> 01:33:30,300
they've watched one without me. It's, you know, it's kind of like, oh, him and

1347
01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:33,820
his mom and it's, you know, it's okay, I get it. Like, they like more

1348
01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:38,260
of the actiony movies and I watch a lot of the sad political movies

1349
01:33:38,500 --> 01:33:41,820
and stuff that I don't. I don't put on to them. But yeah, he got

1350
01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:45,980
into Godzilla. He really could. Especially the old King Kong.

1351
01:33:46,480 --> 01:33:50,090
He could not care about old King Kong, but he just

1352
01:33:50,590 --> 01:33:54,250
got really into Godzilla, started getting Godzilla books.

1353
01:33:54,750 --> 01:33:57,690
When I told him that I was going to be doing this with you,

1354
01:33:58,190 --> 01:34:02,250
he went and dug out his God, like encyclopedia of Godzilla or

1355
01:34:02,750 --> 01:34:07,490
something that he has. And he was looking it up. And when we were so,

1356
01:34:07,990 --> 01:34:10,730
you know, I guess going back a little further. I don't know how short you

1357
01:34:11,230 --> 01:34:14,610
want me to make this. I tend to ramble on and on. He.

1358
01:34:15,250 --> 01:34:18,610
I got his mom that big book box

1359
01:34:19,110 --> 01:34:22,630
set of Godzilla movies. That's you Criterion Collection. One with all the

1360
01:34:23,130 --> 01:34:26,350
modern. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We used, we used that for most

1361
01:34:26,850 --> 01:34:29,470
of the films from that era that we covered for this show. So he tried

1362
01:34:29,970 --> 01:34:32,310
to take it as his own. You know, I think she kind of let.

1363
01:34:32,810 --> 01:34:36,270
Lets him have it. He. He does have the

1364
01:34:36,770 --> 01:34:40,150
only real DVD player in the house anyway in

1365
01:34:40,650 --> 01:34:44,350
his room. So that. That's on his bookshelf. He likes to flip through

1366
01:34:44,850 --> 01:34:48,270
it. He, you know, he really likes getting the encyclopedias like

1367
01:34:48,770 --> 01:34:51,470
this in Star wars and stuff like that. He's just like, okay, do you,

1368
01:34:51,970 --> 01:34:56,170
you know, he' test people's knowledge on stuff? But not in a pedantic

1369
01:34:56,670 --> 01:34:59,770
sort of way. It's just, you. This is stuff you should know. You know,

1370
01:34:59,850 --> 01:35:03,410
fun trivia about the things that he's obsessed with that he wants. It's just

1371
01:35:03,910 --> 01:35:06,010
like, to make it, you know, like, hey, did you know this? And here's a

1372
01:35:06,510 --> 01:35:09,770
fun fact. Yeah, I get it. Yeah, it's total fan stuff,

1373
01:35:10,270 --> 01:35:12,890
like where you want to tell someone something else that they may not have known.

1374
01:35:12,970 --> 01:35:15,890
I do it all the time still to this day while I'm watching a movie

1375
01:35:16,390 --> 01:35:18,370
with someone to the point where my wife's like, yeah, you've told me that like

1376
01:35:18,870 --> 01:35:22,500
100 times, cort, shut up. You know, it's just,

1377
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:26,220
it's true. Fandom is. What you're describing is like, he's really, really excited about

1378
01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:29,140
it. He's really, really into it, and he likes to tell people as many facts

1379
01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:33,020
as he can whenever they're into it, too. And that's awesome. That sounds just incredible.

1380
01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:36,700
Yeah. Really into it. You know, we've. They haven't really had any screenings

1381
01:35:37,200 --> 01:35:40,540
near us of any of the old ones, but there is a neighborhood theater that

1382
01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:43,860
has played all of the ones that have come out since he's been alive and

1383
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:48,020
we've gone to see those. And then he looked up the Kaiju in,

1384
01:35:48,740 --> 01:35:52,560
you know, from this movie. And I don't know what all he. He has never

1385
01:35:53,060 --> 01:35:56,080
seen this movie before, and we watched it last night and he's. And he's a

1386
01:35:56,580 --> 01:35:59,720
little bit of a pre spoiler guy. You know, if you don't watch it,

1387
01:36:00,220 --> 01:36:02,360
it'd be like, oh, in two minutes this is going to happen. Or wait,

1388
01:36:02,860 --> 01:36:06,120
wait, wait. Just here look at this. Look at this. And he knew a lot

1389
01:36:06,620 --> 01:36:09,320
of the points of what was going to happen in this without. So it must

1390
01:36:09,820 --> 01:36:12,560
be from one of his books. Yeah, yeah. He probably read up on it.

1391
01:36:13,060 --> 01:36:16,160
Yeah. So it was. It was fun and it was. It was.

1392
01:36:16,800 --> 01:36:20,640
You know, I. I knew that I could lean on his knowledge because this is

1393
01:36:21,140 --> 01:36:25,180
a little bit less out of my wheelh. You said he took notes

1394
01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:28,700
or he had specific notes that he wanted you to tell us. Right. Do you

1395
01:36:29,200 --> 01:36:31,660
have those? So let's see. He said,

1396
01:36:32,220 --> 01:36:36,140
make sure that I point out about the. The UFO parked,

1397
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:40,060
hacking into people's computers and stealing the information about how to

1398
01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:43,860
beat Godzilla in the fight. And there's the other.

1399
01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:46,740
I wrote a couple of them down. And then at one point, he's like,

1400
01:36:47,240 --> 01:36:50,420
I'm not here to do your notes, even though he kept telling me notes to

1401
01:36:50,920 --> 01:36:54,460
write down. That's funny.

1402
01:36:54,620 --> 01:36:58,220
Yeah. So he wanted to make sure that everybody understood that the reason that it

1403
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:01,660
hacked into all of those computers is it was trying to find information on how

1404
01:37:02,160 --> 01:37:05,140
to defeat Godzilla. He wanted to make sure that the audience understood that. Yep,

1405
01:37:05,640 --> 01:37:09,180
he wanted to understand that. He sort of. Like we talked about

1406
01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:13,340
in our summary, he said sometimes the plot got a little weird,

1407
01:37:13,840 --> 01:37:17,380
but really all. He's all you've got. I wrote this down. Really all you got

1408
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:21,500
to know going into a Godzilla movie is Godzilla's job is to

1409
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:25,360
show up, grief a city, beat up the Kaiju, and then disappear

1410
01:37:25,860 --> 01:37:29,280
back under the water, leaving people to think about what they did. Grief a city.

1411
01:37:29,780 --> 01:37:33,160
Is that like a new kid young term that I'm not familiar with? Yes,

1412
01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:38,840
I think it's the summary of the destruction the Godzilla

1413
01:37:39,340 --> 01:37:42,480
causes in. Causes grief. Right,

1414
01:37:42,980 --> 01:37:46,800
right. I get it. Like, yeah, the context makes sense. Like, I just had

1415
01:37:47,300 --> 01:37:49,440
not heard of that as a term before, and I. Didn'T know I had not

1416
01:37:49,940 --> 01:37:53,070
either. Yeah, that's at least a term that. That your child uses more often.

1417
01:37:53,150 --> 01:37:56,550
Like, mass devastation would be griefing a city. If you do

1418
01:37:57,050 --> 01:38:00,630
mass devastation to a city, you grief a city. Hey, if that's. If that's a

1419
01:38:01,130 --> 01:38:03,950
term that he came up with on his own and other kids aren't saying it,

1420
01:38:04,450 --> 01:38:07,390
that's still fucking slick. I like that. Like, I might steal that from him,

1421
01:38:08,190 --> 01:38:11,510
I think. Go for it. He does like to. Yeah,

1422
01:38:12,010 --> 01:38:14,590
he does like to explore different uses of language.

1423
01:38:15,070 --> 01:38:18,160
Oh, he's such your kid, is he not? Oh, yeah. I mean, we got into

1424
01:38:18,660 --> 01:38:22,400
talking about the things in movies where the bad guy

1425
01:38:22,900 --> 01:38:25,760
with the giant boutonniere at the beginning of the movie is often wearing a big

1426
01:38:26,260 --> 01:38:30,120
black trench coat, and the scientist dad was often wearing lighter

1427
01:38:30,620 --> 01:38:34,160
clothes, and they were more open, like his vest and stuff like that. And then

1428
01:38:34,660 --> 01:38:37,840
we got into the, oh. The symbolism of the guy wearing

1429
01:38:38,340 --> 01:38:40,440
the black hat versus the guy wearing the. White hat, good and evil,

1430
01:38:41,240 --> 01:38:44,040
and the racism connotations that come along with that.

1431
01:38:44,790 --> 01:38:48,510
And we went down a rabbit hole about, you know, America having a

1432
01:38:49,010 --> 01:38:52,030
bit. Not, you know, he's like, well, you know, it was Japanese,

1433
01:38:52,530 --> 01:38:55,270
though, so it's not this. It was like, oh, there's racism everywhere. And,

1434
01:38:55,750 --> 01:38:58,710
you know, you know how it goes in this house. Some of the most egregious

1435
01:38:58,790 --> 01:39:02,230
blackface I've ever seen was in a Japanese film that was made

1436
01:39:02,730 --> 01:39:06,550
solely for American audiences. Yeah, Is it. I can't remember which order it's

1437
01:39:07,050 --> 01:39:10,350
supposed to be in, but it's either Frankenstein Girl versus Vampire Girl or Vampire Girl

1438
01:39:10,850 --> 01:39:14,030
versus Frank. I think it's Vampire Girl versus Frankenstein Girl. There is some

1439
01:39:14,530 --> 01:39:17,630
egregiously horrific blackface in that film

1440
01:39:18,130 --> 01:39:19,790
that is, like, super offensive.

1441
01:39:21,390 --> 01:39:25,270
And they made it for American audiences, so I think they think that's what Americans

1442
01:39:25,770 --> 01:39:30,270
want, which. Fair enough. You know, you kind of got us there. I guess they've

1443
01:39:30,770 --> 01:39:32,590
got a big enough audience to guess that correctly.

1444
01:39:34,430 --> 01:39:37,310
All right, well, I think that's going to wrap up our story Time slash,

1445
01:39:37,810 --> 01:39:41,630
bit of a rant. But I'm super impressed with everything

1446
01:39:41,710 --> 01:39:44,930
that the. The little one has as far as knowledge when it comes

1447
01:39:45,430 --> 01:39:48,810
to Godzilla. And hey, if there's other movies that they haven't seen,

1448
01:39:49,130 --> 01:39:51,930
hit me up with some titles that they need to see and I'll see if

1449
01:39:52,430 --> 01:39:55,450
I can. I've got copies of them, as long as I haven't deleted them already.

1450
01:39:55,690 --> 01:39:58,810
You know, like, if you haven't seen this and any of the ones forward in

1451
01:39:59,310 --> 01:40:02,250
the millennium series, now's the time to get them off of me before I delete

1452
01:40:02,750 --> 01:40:06,010
those copies. Awesome. Yeah, I will. I'll ask him,

1453
01:40:06,510 --> 01:40:10,290
and either way, he'll say, thanks for offering. Yeah, if he already has them,

1454
01:40:10,790 --> 01:40:13,410
cool. But if not, you know, any of the titles, if I still. Still have

1455
01:40:13,910 --> 01:40:16,050
them, I haven't deleted them yet. If I need to re rip them, I guess

1456
01:40:16,550 --> 01:40:18,450
I will, you know, but just let me know. I'll see if I can get

1457
01:40:18,950 --> 01:40:20,850
him a copy. And yeah, and I probably have some extra copies too, that I

1458
01:40:21,350 --> 01:40:24,770
could hand over as well. So there we go. Why don't

1459
01:40:25,270 --> 01:40:27,810
we go ahead and play the show Housekeeping here. We're gonna take that break,

1460
01:40:27,970 --> 01:40:31,370
and then when we come back after the show, Housekeeping. We're gonna play a song

1461
01:40:31,870 --> 01:40:36,610
from the band Citizen King which was also released in 1999

1462
01:40:37,110 --> 01:40:40,580
like the film Godzilla 2000 2000. It's the song Better Days which

1463
01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:44,300
you could not escape in 1999. And you'll hear that immediately

1464
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,500
following this if you've decided. I think the

1465
01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:52,500
sort of thought exercise ones can be eliminated as

1466
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:56,700
easy to reproduce for testing. Let's see. The barber liar

1467
01:40:57,200 --> 01:41:00,700
and nukems are more about logical concepts, so those are not

1468
01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:04,980
likely. Also, I think the grandfather paradox is going to be of voluntold

1469
01:41:05,480 --> 01:41:08,780
situation if we try to Sarah Connor our way into testing these bad boys.

1470
01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:12,300
Good point. Time travel seems to be our best bet for testing though.

1471
01:41:12,620 --> 01:41:16,060
So we could try to just go back and remove someone

1472
01:41:16,140 --> 01:41:19,620
from ever existing. But how do we know unless we observe the

1473
01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:23,340
removable with the 3 TD maybe. And then if

1474
01:41:23,840 --> 01:41:27,500
we remember it happened, it did. And then we have a paradox that we're sustaining.

1475
01:41:27,580 --> 01:41:31,600
Hey, why is Court Double five three two one smashing

1476
01:41:32,100 --> 01:41:34,680
up his lab over there? Twist the nipple on the perv there.

1477
01:41:35,720 --> 01:41:39,720
Yeah, I heard it. As I said it. He is such a child. I know.

1478
01:41:40,220 --> 01:41:44,280
Is that device some kind of weird contraption that shoots DMT endorphins

1479
01:41:44,780 --> 01:41:47,920
and serotonin in the exact amount that is released at the point

1480
01:41:48,420 --> 01:41:51,600
of death directly into the neurotransmitters of the brain? I would take

1481
01:41:52,100 --> 01:41:56,010
an educated guess that the device would suspend someone at the point of need

1482
01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:59,720
near death experience indefinitely while connected to

1483
01:42:00,220 --> 01:42:04,960
it. And they continue to live while that's happening. If this is how Court 55321

1484
01:42:05,460 --> 01:42:09,200
comes to invent his version of the Mobius loop of annihilation stands

1485
01:42:09,700 --> 01:42:13,440
to reason that a version of the grandfather paradox was used. Which as I mention

1486
01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:17,160
it right now the loop is really just self replicating paradox

1487
01:42:17,660 --> 01:42:21,240
anyway. That is fueled by the connection to the 3 TD to the near

1488
01:42:21,740 --> 01:42:25,140
death settings. No paradox sustaining devices being used in

1489
01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:29,700
this case then. None detected. The perv is overstimulated and should really be switched

1490
01:42:30,200 --> 01:42:33,340
to ASMR mode. The power of names matters.

1491
01:42:33,420 --> 01:42:36,860
The power of terms matters. Why does

1492
01:42:37,360 --> 01:42:41,380
he not get that? Probably because marketing needs at least a little empathy

1493
01:42:41,880 --> 01:42:45,260
to understand others in order to manipulate them that he lacks.

1494
01:42:45,820 --> 01:42:49,020
So he is terrible at appealing to anyone. I feel sad

1495
01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:51,910
for him. If he wasn't such a a colossal ass hat.

1496
01:42:53,110 --> 01:42:56,950
Speak of the devil. Why did they let him watch Undercover Boss? You can't

1497
01:42:57,450 --> 01:43:01,390
really think he's fooling anyone. Never failed.

1498
01:43:01,890 --> 01:43:05,390
In 1999 you walk into a convenience store and it was almost like that

1499
01:43:05,890 --> 01:43:08,870
was the Security trigger to say that someone just walked through the door. That song

1500
01:43:09,370 --> 01:43:12,590
was playing somewhere. McDonald's,

1501
01:43:13,090 --> 01:43:16,610
man 7:11, convenience store of all

1502
01:43:17,110 --> 01:43:20,610
sorts. Fucking kmarts like it was goddamn muzak. That song

1503
01:43:21,110 --> 01:43:24,450
was everywhere. It really was just

1504
01:43:24,950 --> 01:43:28,690
you couldn't escape it in 1999. Am I. Am I over exaggerating or was this

1505
01:43:29,190 --> 01:43:33,010
your experience as well? It was everywhere. I don't think I've ever act like chosen

1506
01:43:33,510 --> 01:43:37,050
to listen to this song. And I've heard it 15 times at least.

1507
01:43:37,850 --> 01:43:41,170
Well, I'm glad to be the 16th one to play that for you. There's only

1508
01:43:41,670 --> 01:43:44,652
one. One other song I can think of that was released in 1999.

1509
01:43:44,748 --> 01:43:48,500
Was popular in 1999 at just like Godzilla

1510
01:43:48,660 --> 01:43:51,780
2000, you know, the same year that it was released. And that one had to

1511
01:43:52,280 --> 01:43:55,660
be included in the pirate radio edit to close out the show for

1512
01:43:56,160 --> 01:43:59,540
this week. 100%. The song that you could not escape

1513
01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:03,980
from 1999 is from Everlast with the song what it's like on

1514
01:44:04,480 --> 01:44:07,460
the pirate radio edit. So kick the fuck out of this week. Can't make it

1515
01:44:07,960 --> 01:44:09,580
your while you enjoy that song.

1516
01:44:11,340 --> 01:44:14,540
Speak of the devil. Why did they let him watch Undercover Boss?

1517
01:44:15,040 --> 01:44:18,140
You can't really think he's fooling anyone when he does

1518
01:44:18,640 --> 01:44:22,420
this, can he? Look, I'm pulling rank on you. I'm not pretending to not recognize

1519
01:44:22,920 --> 01:44:26,620
him for the 50th time while he fishes for compliments and ego boosting.

1520
01:44:27,180 --> 01:44:30,620
Okay, Very good. Looks like a new recruit has come to our

1521
01:44:31,120 --> 01:44:34,260
department. So this guy right here. Golly,

1522
01:44:34,760 --> 01:44:38,500
thanks. This guy is going to show you the ropes today. Jeff, on oh,

1523
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:42,100
it's Jevin. Jeffin. Jevin. Jevin. Got it. So we're

1524
01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:46,060
putting the perv into ASMR mode right now. What do you think of

1525
01:44:46,140 --> 01:44:49,540
Zevin? Isn't he like the coolest? I love having him as a boss. I think

1526
01:44:50,040 --> 01:44:52,900
he does so many amazing things with the company. What is your favorite thing he

1527
01:44:53,400 --> 01:44:57,140
has done as your boss? Don't tell anyone this, but I heard he sometimes

1528
01:44:57,640 --> 01:45:01,470
comes out to the factory for floor or the labs to work in disguise because

1529
01:45:01,970 --> 01:45:05,470
he became a huge fanatic of Undercover Boss. If that is true,

1530
01:45:05,970 --> 01:45:08,830
that would be kind of cool. Oh, really? Like, if I were.

1531
01:45:16,190 --> 01:45:19,830
Yeah. Hey, thanks again for doing this, man.

1532
01:45:20,330 --> 01:45:23,910
I greatly appreciate it. I should warn you, I'm already recording, so I'm gonna.

1533
01:45:24,410 --> 01:45:28,040
Yeah. Use everything. Okay, cool. Yeah. It's been a minute since I've been

1534
01:45:28,540 --> 01:45:32,320
on here. Does it sound like I'm using my microphone and not my computer?

1535
01:45:32,820 --> 01:45:36,320
It tells me I am oh yeah. Yeah, you definitely sound pretty incredible. It's like

1536
01:45:36,820 --> 01:45:39,879
you're in the room using one of my mics with me actually. That's pretty nice.

1537
01:45:40,379 --> 01:45:43,840
Yeah. Sweet. You'd be so. Recording in progress. There we go. I'm like,

1538
01:45:44,340 --> 01:45:47,560
I bought it, but now I don't remember what it is. Let's see.

1539
01:45:48,520 --> 01:45:51,730
I believe one of the times you and I recorded before for your show in

1540
01:45:52,230 --> 01:45:54,770
the past, after you just got it, we talked about it and you knew what

1541
01:45:55,270 --> 01:45:58,010
it was then and I'm pretty sure you got that SM7. I've been. I've been

1542
01:45:58,510 --> 01:46:02,290
drooling over those once. Once. The consecutive episodes that you're

1543
01:46:02,790 --> 01:46:06,490
helping keep going alive here on this ends. I am actually going to probably

1544
01:46:06,990 --> 01:46:09,690
be retiring the old equipment in the old rack because it's getting to be too

1545
01:46:10,190 --> 01:46:13,330
much of a pain to maintain it for the show every year. Oh, wow.

1546
01:46:13,410 --> 01:46:16,730
And I'm going to just probably go to like a digital. Cuz those digital mics

1547
01:46:17,230 --> 01:46:20,370
have improved to the point where they made the equip, the need for the equipment

1548
01:46:20,870 --> 01:46:23,930
in the years that I've been doing the show useless now. You know,

1549
01:46:24,430 --> 01:46:27,610
technology caught up to what I wanted it to. So finally, yeah,

1550
01:46:27,690 --> 01:46:30,690
it only took 10 years of me doing this show for me to accept that

1551
01:46:31,190 --> 01:46:34,930
it did. I knew that this was like

1552
01:46:35,430 --> 01:46:39,210
a edited version of the Japanese release or. Something like that usually. Yeah,

1553
01:46:39,710 --> 01:46:41,900
they usually do stuff like that. This one is actually one of the ones where

1554
01:46:42,400 --> 01:46:46,140
it's just. This was a straight Toho to America release. So it's pretty

1555
01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:50,100
much as it is. And from here on out they don't really re edit

1556
01:46:50,600 --> 01:46:53,220
them as much in the Millennial series. And we can get into that as sort

1557
01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:57,420
of our. Our discussion of when we actually bring in our inner patter or Pablum

1558
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:00,180
or whatever you want to say. That's actually a good place to bring in it.

1559
01:47:00,680 --> 01:47:03,820
So I'm glad that you suggested it. I'll probably keep you for about an hour

1560
01:47:04,320 --> 01:47:06,120
and a half ish, give or take on how long it takes for us to.

1561
01:47:06,270 --> 01:47:08,750
To do the show. And if we're having fun and we goof off too much,

1562
01:47:09,250 --> 01:47:12,430
then it'll be longer. And that's not my fault. Yeah, that's. That's how it

1563
01:47:12,930 --> 01:47:16,350
goes. Jam sessions go. I'm rolling on

1564
01:47:16,590 --> 01:47:19,870
my main recorder. I already started the backup recording and I think we're ready

1565
01:47:20,370 --> 01:47:22,670
to go. All right, let me take a hit and then I'll be ready to

1566
01:47:23,170 --> 01:47:26,030
do the voice. So. Three, two, one. All right, Fix all of that.

1567
01:47:26,270 --> 01:47:29,310
Cort. Go back. Jesus. Christ. 3, 2, 1.

1568
01:47:29,550 --> 01:47:33,440
Combination of not enough caffeine, low sleep, and still getting high to do the

1569
01:47:33,940 --> 01:47:37,000
show because it's more fun that way. Hey, man, go for it.

1570
01:47:37,080 --> 01:47:40,600
I'm on a. Calm down, Gummy, because I was at children's hockey this morning.

1571
01:47:41,640 --> 01:47:45,200
As you notice, all dialogue becomes a clip. And this

1572
01:47:45,700 --> 01:47:48,400
is about to be a good chunk of the movie because it's 13 minutes and

1573
01:47:48,900 --> 01:47:52,160
28 seconds of screen time I gotta cut down. Oh, well, there's a lot of

1574
01:47:52,660 --> 01:47:56,280
not dialogue in there, too, that gets cut out. But it's 13 minutes of screen

1575
01:47:56,780 --> 01:47:58,930
time that just gets turned into a clip so I don't have to write about

1576
01:47:59,430 --> 01:48:00,930
it. That's how lazy I've gotten, Darren.

1577
01:48:01,970 --> 01:48:04,610
That's how creative you've gotten with your editing.

1578
01:48:06,530 --> 01:48:09,090
That's fair. I always love your spin.

1579
01:48:10,770 --> 01:48:13,450
Oh, I gotta spin a lot of things. Three,

1580
01:48:13,950 --> 01:48:17,330
two, one. Oh, God, I'm pathetic. All right. Three, two, one.

1581
01:48:17,650 --> 01:48:21,850
I think you said GPU instead of gpn. Well, there's the gpu

1582
01:48:22,350 --> 01:48:25,500
because there is an actual Godzilla protection unit, but there are parts of

1583
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:29,380
the Godzilla Protection Network, so the Daddy Daughter is a unit

1584
01:48:29,880 --> 01:48:32,700
of the network. They are the unit in the. Okay, perfect.

1585
01:48:33,200 --> 01:48:36,540
Yeah. Thank you. Hey, this type of minutia is

1586
01:48:37,040 --> 01:48:39,220
what I live for, so thanks for bringing it up, even if it's during an

1587
01:48:39,720 --> 01:48:42,660
outtake. GPU,

1588
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:46,140
GPN, CCI. UFO.

1589
01:48:46,620 --> 01:48:50,440
Yeah. And then there's the Ghost, your regenerator, G1.

1590
01:48:50,940 --> 01:48:54,920
Yeah. And then the GeForce. I hope you like acronyms

1591
01:48:55,420 --> 01:48:58,120
and a lot of weird words that don't really explain what the Is going on.

1592
01:48:58,620 --> 01:49:00,280
Because that's what you get in this Godzilla universe.

1593
01:49:02,120 --> 01:49:05,320
Right. Let me move my clips up. Every now and then,

1594
01:49:05,820 --> 01:49:09,120
something flashes on my screen, and I think I'm losing you, because Matt's calls

1595
01:49:09,620 --> 01:49:13,040
always drop on us. Drop. So, like, I'm always,

1596
01:49:13,540 --> 01:49:16,840
like, looking up, making sure you're still there. It messes me up for a minute.

1597
01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:21,600
All right, I think I got everything. And. Yep. Three,

1598
01:49:22,100 --> 01:49:25,440
two, one. This is what happens whenever you record a show with unedited clips where

1599
01:49:25,940 --> 01:49:29,560
the clips need to be cut down, but you didn't cut them down. That's all

1600
01:49:30,060 --> 01:49:33,920
the studio magic. Yeah. Yeah. It's all the Cort and his spare

1601
01:49:34,420 --> 01:49:37,880
time spending it making this show happen for multiple weeks

1602
01:49:38,380 --> 01:49:41,810
consecutively with the help of his friends who do the show with him, you know?

1603
01:49:43,410 --> 01:49:45,890
All right, break it down. 3, 2, 1.

1604
01:49:47,090 --> 01:49:50,410
Could you imagine if that Undercover Boss thing were true and I worked with

1605
01:49:50,910 --> 01:49:52,930
him? I don't know if I would be able to handle it if I found

1606
01:49:53,430 --> 01:49:56,930
out after and I said something hurtful or did something to anger him.

1607
01:49:57,090 --> 01:50:01,570
I would honestly be way more worried if I were the unspecified

1608
01:50:01,890 --> 01:50:05,210
engineer that killed a goodly portion of our friends

1609
01:50:05,710 --> 01:50:09,680
and had had to, for reasons no one understands at all. Am back

1610
01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:13,040
out at the same labs I exploded a few months ago.

1611
01:50:13,540 --> 01:50:17,000
The unspecified engineer made an honest mistake and I frankly admire

1612
01:50:17,500 --> 01:50:21,200
Zon for forgiving them and allowing them to stay home. Self preservation is like that.

1613
01:50:21,700 --> 01:50:24,240
Sorry, what was that? The resonator is in an ice bath.

1614
01:50:25,120 --> 01:50:28,360
Good. Okay. What am I doing today? As your new staff

1615
01:50:28,860 --> 01:50:32,570
member, unfortunately, you. Join us on the day of our most important yet

1616
01:50:33,070 --> 01:50:37,450
wholly most unfun task imaginable. That's right. It's collating time.

1617
01:50:38,170 --> 01:50:41,290
Seems a lot of departments do collating time at different times

1618
01:50:41,790 --> 01:50:45,850
and always when I'm training there. Call it a coincidence. Best not to overthink that.

1619
01:50:46,410 --> 01:50:50,610
The song that you could not escape from 1999 is from Everlast

1620
01:50:51,110 --> 01:50:54,810
with the song what it's like on the pirate radio edit. So kick the

1621
01:50:54,890 --> 01:50:58,420
out of this weekend. Make it your bit pitch while you enjoy that song.

1622
01:50:58,920 --> 01:51:03,900
All right. I just kind of closed out on it. It's fine. I'm not

1623
01:51:04,400 --> 01:51:08,100
going to play that because it's a long ass

1624
01:51:08,600 --> 01:51:12,220
song. We don't need it. So there we go. All right. And I'm going to

1625
01:51:12,720 --> 01:51:15,940
stop the recording so we can stop this. Yay. Recording stopped.
