Godzilla continues on with a new one. Then, his son continues on after GOdzilla vs Destoroyah.<br /><br />I'm learning.<br /><br />The tacky ones are definitely that and campy and fun, but I'm working my way through to determine where it all goes wrong and right. It will be a slow process, but why not. <br /><br />I was definitely raised and reared on Godzilla and have a pretty huge adoration for the big fella.SFFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04256589316922398158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031498593064294214.post-85981337132832525872010-03-31T12:12:41.441-04:002010-03-31T12:12:41.441-04:00I did not know that,!!! lol Godzilla scared me as ...I did not know that,!!! lol Godzilla scared me as kid,I did not know he was number two !!!:).I remember watching all of their monster movies,that are tacky now,but then,I was scared.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
