I love all these old monster movies. MonsterHD which is available on dishnetwork is a 24/7 monster channel. Mostly too gorey for me, but they have godzilla fests. Love them!

I like the original godzilla. They just released the original japanese version of it, without raymond burr a year or 2 ago. it was considered too controversial, becaue of it's anti-nuclear bomb sentiment. Remember that was not too longer after hiroshima and WWII.

My kids love those movies, they are classics.

Thank you OntheRoad and/or Christina !!!!

I found the movie trailor (2 min) of a great Godzilla movie. Godzilla vs King Ghidorah

King Ghidorah is the 3 headed monster that shoots electricity out of its/their mouths as this is a powerful monster destroying Tokyo. It's in Japanese but who cares as the monster battle scenes are too cool.
Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah

I know it's a shame that a 40 + year old still loves these monster movies....lol...

I LOVE the Godzilla movies.

Godzilla vs. Monster Zero
Godzilla vs. Mega Godzilla
Godzilla's Revenge - Even though it was all a dream, it was good.

Gamera vs. the Supersonic Monster (the one that looked kinda like a bat)
Destroy All Planets - Gamera fights the Octopuss type space monster - classic

War of the Gargantuas - Brown one vs. the Green one.

Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot - Emperor Guillotine was a bad dude. Love the Pimped out paint job on his flying saucer.

I love these films too and have been collecting them on dvd. Toho Studios in Japan made the best in the genre.

Some personal favorites:

War of the Gargantuas
King Kong Escapes (Kong fights a giant robot Kong)
Godzilla VS MechaGodzilla
Ghidorah the 3 Headed Monster
King Kong VS Godzilla
Frankenstein Conquers the World
Mothra VS Godzilla
Godzilla VS Gigan
Destroy All Monsters (giant monster battle royale)
The Mighty Peking Man

Ape (1976) is really low rent, but still lots of fun!

Ain't got a clue unless you mean Johnny Sokko and his Giant Flying Robot.


I wish they'd have a movie where the bad monsters fought each other instead of always the good against the bad.

Example .....King Ghidorah (Godzillas's enemy) vs Gaos (Gamera's enemy).
or
The Smog Monster (Green week correct) vs MegaGodzilla


6/3
