Tonight's movie: Godzilla 2000. Y'know, I knew I was gonna love this as soon as the oldschool Toho logo came up at the beginning. And it did not disappoint. I particularly appreciate that, even tho, it was made only 10 years ago, they worked very much in the classic style. Sure, they may have access to actual military surplus tanks and stuff now. But there's still an underwater scene with a mini-sub that looks straight out the 60s. Plus a spunky kid in the cast. And none of the wrenching death-of-Godzilla angst from the last Toho Godzilla movie I saw. Major havoc (most of it collateral damage, natch) is visited upon the cities and countryside. Alien spaceship that looks like a computer mouse. Giant monster on giant monster fight scenes galore.
good times!
