Cinema_PSYOPS_EP504: Giant Monsters FSU: Godzilla vs. Biollante 1989 (Main Feed)

There is very little time or point in an explanation. To be blunt,

the audio came from a timeline and dimension that has collapsed

at a quantum level, rendering it null and void in terms of existence.

Operational time in the dimensional continuum where the beings that created the audio

collapsed in on itself, rendering all of their civilization,

including technology, null and void. Timelines across the

entire continuum are collapsing and changing. The destruction

has a nexus that centers on Cinema PsyOps.

10 years. Man. 10.

10 years.

10 years. Man. 10 years. 10 years.

10. 10 years. 10 Years.

What is the most likely way humanity. Will be wiped out? Maybe it's something.

Or us. Although the way the world ends might be because of you.

And if this is the case, you wouldn't have any control over it.

The global temperature rise underscores a chilling reality.

Our planet is trying to tell us. Something, but we don't seem to

be listening. A recent study has suggested that one. Third of annual deaths

due to heat are directly related to global warming.

On top of the initial flash of thermonuclear light, which is

180 million degrees, which catches every everything on fire in

a nine mile diameter radius. On top of the bulldozing effect

of the wind and all the buildings coming down, and more fires igniting more

fires on top of the radiation if they happen to have survived poisoning

people to death. On top of all that, each one of these fires

creates a mega fire that is a hundred or more

square miles.

Timelines across the entire continuum are collapsing and changing.

The destruction has a nexus that centers on Cinema Psyops.

A breathtaking scientific revolution is taking place.

Biotechnology has been progressing at stunning speed,

giving us the tools to eventually gain control over biology.

Solving the deadliest diseases while also creating viruses

more dangerous than nuclear bombs, able to devastate humanity.

It's man returning to the most primal,

violent state as people fight over the tiny

resources that remain. What if the world we live in. Is just

a dream or a simulation? Whether it's a dream or some advanced.

Computer game you are playing right now. When it ends, you would be what

causes the end of the world. Please do us all a favor.

Continue dreaming or playing this game of life. Because when you wake

up or unplug, there's a chance the rest of us will be blaked out of

existence. Timelines across the entire continuum

are collapsing and changing. The destruction has a nexus

that centers on Cinema syn.

10 years. 10 years.

And welcome to the 504th consecutive week

of Cinema Psyops. I'm your host, Cort, the guy that cannot believe

that we only have 16 weeks left of our

year 10 to cover Godzilla and or other Kaiju movies. And joining me in

the joy of how much time we have left versus how much time is actually

left for us at all is my co host, Matt. What is

time? Time is all relative. I mean, we get older,

the more our planet revolves around our sun.

We get things pass. And time is the construct that

we've put together to be able to mark that sort of thing so that we

have a modicum of control over our ever, you know,

chaos, widening lifespan. Yeah,

good luck with that. Yeah. Unfortunately, time control is

one of those constructs that has been usurped by the people that

want to sell your lifetime, the time that you have where you are

alive. And they'll give you money if you spend

time, your lifetime that you have with them or doing tasks

for them or filing paperwork for them. But you're still just selling away your

lifetime. All right, well, now we're really going off the rails

here. Thank God. We're all just happy, cheery moods

fucking today. Yeah, well, it is what it is. Hopefully when we

record last week's episode, we'll be in a better mood than when we are recording

this week's episode because we're more time traveling.

Things are getting a little weird in Godzilla universe anyway, so let's just dive in.

Right? Yeah, yeah. No, I'm with. So we've gone full

hardcore sci fi without aliens this week.

Sort of a mad Science Y.

Frankenstein has a daughter that possessed a

rose that is sort of Earth's would be

protector that is bred with Godzilla cells to

become Biollante. Am I getting this right? As right

as you're going to get it, yeah. I mean, the movie's definitely not clear about

a lot of this, but we do know that Biollante is a rose of some

sort that is merged with God cells. We will see that that's part of the

actual plotline that is in the description for the movie that this is what happens.

That a scientist does this and creates Biollante. But the side

effects of Biollante being a gentle and loving creature are very,

well, two things, right? There's two things that are making that happen. One is it's

a very Japanese. That's a very Japanese construct that

the. The spirit of a forgiving and loving being would be put

into a monster. And therefore the monster becomes a protector and a savior. Very Japanese.

And the second thing that I wanted to point out about,

that they start doing this a lot more in the Godzilla series.

Where would be Villains are technically, like,

transformed into protectors, and they mean us really no harm. And this

is really kind of the start. And this series that we've kicked off with

the Return of Godzilla in 1984, or Godzilla 1984,

depending upon which version of it you end up seeing, they're called the Verses,

because from here on out it's like basically Godzilla Versus this, Godzilla Versus

that. And that's kind of how this series goes. So it's kind of nicknamed that

way. It's also known as the Heisei Era, I do believe.

So. Showa was the one that we were. And we were done with with the

Return of Godzilla. We're now in the Heisei era when we covered that.

And then this is the start of what they start affectionately

referring to as the Versus series, which is in the Heisei era.

And I already explained it earlier, it's based by the Emperor of Japan at the

time, is what the era is. Whoever's alive. And Emperor of the is

just basically, whenever they start making these again, that's the era that generally

they're named as the era that they exist in. But the fans have nicknames for

some of them. And this one happens to be Versus, if I'm not mistaken.

All right, then. And it really starts with this.

That's. Yeah, it really starts with this one. That's really what's

important to kind of discuss about it. This is definitely an

odd duck. And I definitely pulled a selfish in having you

do this one, because I wasn't going to try and explain this, even though I

did at the beginning of the show try to explain it, but I'm still lost.

I mean, just kind of did. So, yeah, it's all over. Do you have this

mapped out in your notes as best to your ability as to what the fuck

is going on in this film? As best as I got it. Which is why

there's 18 clips to explain it. Ooh, yeah. Yeah.

Honestly, do not blame you at all. When I was watching the.

Before, we got ready to record because, again, we're cutting it close this week

because life has just fallen apart around us, and that's just how it is every

day. Every day. But, you know, on Sundays we record. Every other Sunday

we record. So we still have to find a way to fit it in,

and we still are, because we love doing it and we love that

you still listen to it. So we're not complaining. We're just saying life

is fucking nuts. And I just barely got this all finished. For us to

be able to record. Anyway, long story short, too late. This film is

not going to make any goddamn sense no matter how much we try to explain

it. And don't blame that on us. Yeah, Ye. This ain't our fault.

We didn't make the fucking movie. Yeah, the dialogue will try to

explain it to you, but even the dialogue is not concerned with

like howl fourths and all of that sort of things that have ended up happening

that somehow transformed a may or may not be possessed by the daughter of

the scientist Rose being fused with Godzilla cells to

make Biollante. It just stands. Yeah. Just accept it and let's

move on. Thank you. Well, in the

spirit of that moving on, we're going to go ahead and play

on the pirate radio edit for this week. Amaz immediately following the Legion

Patreon ad. All songs released in 1989 just like

Godzilla vs Biollante. Up first is the classic

lip synced by Milli Vanilli Blame it on the Rain right after this.

This'll keep you quiet. Oh, hi there. I didn't see ya.

You call me. Previously on the Breakdown of

all goodness and normalcy. Through the destructive chaos of the Mobius loop

of annihilation I join you.

How do you feel about cats? Love cats. Hate humans.

Cool. So look, I can't afford to fe you, my family,

myself and my cats. You're gonna have to fend for yourself here.

But I can get you baked and let you play with my cats before you

have to go back to your reality. I now go back to reality.

I go to a liminal space where I both exist and

do not live. Yet am mostly dead. It is a suspension

of disembodied consciousness pondering the horror of my

state until I am granted temporary reprieve from that

undeath to this sketch based world. Fuck, that was dark.

Look buddy, I just meant you can't live with me if you stay in my

real. It's a capitalistic society where your only worth

in life is the increments of your life. You sell by

the hour to have all of your labor's value go to your bosses.

We are held hostage by the cost of being alive, which is inflated

by the commoditization of every basic need that we have here

in this world. Ethereal state of non existent consciousness.

Sound much better. You want to come too? Fuck dude.

If it weren't for the few people that I love in this world and my

cats, I would love that shit. I am sure. Only being a

disembodied consciousness untethered to sensation an

echo of existence. It's not for everyone like dreaming

about a life you never wake up to.

Currently occurring during the breakdown of all goodness and normalcy through

the destructive chaos of the Mobius loop of annihilation.

Only being a disembodied consciousness untethered to

sensation. An echo of existence. It's not for

everyone like dreaming about a life you never wake up to.

That sounds like the simulation that is based around me that I

live in. Read the in reality you are in or

get the out of here. You have got to be the absolute

most self absorbed, idiotic and terminally narcissistic

version of us that has ever been. I finally found a version

of me I hate more than myself. Whoever wrote you must

be a miserable piece of. As more

and more courts found themselves filled with rage at discovering their origins

and the reality of their creator, they each channeled that rage through the

lens of having someone new to blame for their horrific self hating character

flaws.

Now I am giving Milli Vanilli a little bit of shit because they infamously

had a record skipping that they were just performing along to for the song Blame

it on the Not Blame it on the Rain, but it's Girl, you know It's

True or whatever, that chorus going on. Yeah. And the record started skipping so they

tried to sell it off at a bit and then they just stopped whenever the

record finally scratched and they stopped it. And it was revealed to people who had

no idea that artists who have to sing and dance like that actually can't

do all of that with the breath control that they may or may not have.

And these guys may have actually been doing the performances that ended up in the

albums. They're not like CNC Music Factory where the people that are shown in

the video are not the people that are actually doing the performances at all.

That was crazy. I mean, but did they actually do the performances that.

I don't know. Like, I'm just trying to give them a little bit of credit

because one of them is dead because of the embarrassment and the horror of what

he experienced from that night. Yeah, but I just don't think they

actually sang at all. Well, probably not. And it really doesn't fucking matter

because the music that was produced for them to look pretty and sing and

dance in front of the TV for was still actually pretty okay

for the time. Yeah, it wasn't bad. I mean, you know, a lot of pop

fluff. Yeah, well, there was a lot of pop fluff at the end

of the 80s into the 90s. I mean, we're probably into a lot of

pop fluff right now too, but. Yeah, well, it is

what it is. And it definitely frames Godzilla

versus Biollante, which is what we're really here to talk about. Yeah, a lot

of versus fluff. Let's get into it.

All right. Godzilla versus Violente.

First, we have a recap of the last movie in

a news report. So that is our first clip.

Godzilla has fallen into the crater of Mount Mahara.

The lava discharged by the eruption has dragged the creature into the

mouth of the volcano. Emergency precautions issued in the metropolitan

area earlier have been called off. But the Nishi Shinjuku

area remains closed. While troops are salvaging

the remains of Super Square. Examination of residual radiation

and gathering of radioactive items have been undertaken.

The city demolished by Godzilla looks more like a ghost

town now. This city, built with the

most modern technology, was destroyed in

just one day. CCN reporter

Susan Horn reporting from Tokyo. It's important to

note that the opening of the film is a bunch of like a highlight reel

of all of the big things that happened in, in my movie

for Return of Godzilla that they kind of replay his credits to this one.

Yep, that is. That's exactly right. So anyway, then we see

dudes are finding some Godzilla cells. Well, we see they were infiltrators

because the actual army shows up and there's a firefight and the dudes get away

only to be shot by another dude who then takes the cells.

Then we got one dude who gets word that the cells were delivered and

he heads to his lab. And that is our next clip.

I'm sure those Godzilla cells will be a most valuable asset

for our research into genetic engineering. But doctor, those cells would

have been nothing more than trash if it weren't for your

great genius in clarifying for us the entire picture.

No, it's you who should be thanked for giving me such

a modern laboratory. As you know, in this country,

we are wealthy because of the oil wells. But we cannot

depend on them forever. We'll have to find a way to transform this expanse

of desert into a vast granary well. Now,

my daughter Erica recently succeeded in cross

breeding a new variety of wheat from wheat and desert cactus cells.

This new wheat can be grown out in the desert. So if we can add

self reproductive genetic information to this from

some of these Godzilla cells, then an indestructible new super

plant will have been produced. Mr. Zalman, good. If that happens, then the

Americans will be mortified and their position as the largest grain

exporting country in the World will become threatened.

What?

What's up? What's going on?

The research lab's been blown up by a bomb. All right.

So anyway, the cells are destroyed, and dude finds his daughter, what we're assuming

is dead in the rubble. This all leads to five years later. In our

next clip, Niki Sagusa. She's the best channeler of

ESP that we have at the Mental Science Exploitation Center.

It has been shown through a number of experiments over the years.

The plants have their own fields of. Mental energy,

so it's no surprise that. We found somebody who can communicate with

them. Tell me something, Doctor. Why do you

suddenly wish to hear. The voice of a rose? If you don't mind me asking.

I guess it's a sign of old age. You know, I've lived here alone

with my work for almost five years now. Solitude weighs heavily. I get some

strange ideas. Is it really five years?

Erica used to say that one day the desert would come alive

and be carpeted with all sorts of wild flowers. Tell me,

Asuka, how's your father? He's fine,

thanks. His latest project is to start a bio bank. He's trying

to get the foundation to fund it. Yes, I've heard of your father's project.

He wants to preserve Nobel Prize winner semen to be used for future production of

geniuses. There's been a lot of opposition to the project,

but it's going ahead. It won't be easy to get his work accepted.

You see, it was because of these same conservative attitudes that I was forced to

leave the country. I can tell you, things haven't changed these

five years. How did it go? It was

no good. There was nothing. Nothing at all?

Doesn't seem to be anybody important. Yeah,

that's my guess, too, but.

But what? She's not a bad size,

right? This ain't a beauty

contest, you know. You're right.

See you later. Thanks a lot for coming. Hey,

didn't you hear anything just now? A girl was

calling you, Asuka. It was your name. I'm sure of it.

Bye. Have you ever heard of Chimera?

Chimera? A legendary

monster that spits fire. It was supposed to appear from the ocean's depths,

causing violent storms and destroying human beings.

It had a lion's head, goat's body, dragon's tail.

It was mythical. If they play around

with cells, genetic engineers might well create their own.

Chimera. A new life form. Totally alien.

Totally different to what God intended for Earth.

Frightening, don't you think? I understand your misgivings concerning

My father's work. A lot of people are against it as well. I can't

help it if the head of the Akochi foundation is my father.

Anyway, I fail to see how our relationship has anything to do with it.

You're right. Still, I feel uneasy in my work. After all, the foundation supports the

laboratory. Yes, but that doesn't have an effect on our staying together, you know.

You think you're Romeo straight out of Shakespeare's tragedy.

Well, I'm not going to do a Juliet, that's for certain.

Massachusetts sent me an answer. They want me to go study there.

Asuka, will you come with me?

Well, I don't really know what to say.

I can't answer that right away.

Since late last night, a series of violent earth tremors

has shaken the area around Mount Mihara on Oshima Island.

Early this morning, smoke has been seen rising from the crater.

The Central Seismic Bureau is monitoring the situation, but at

this stage, they're unsure whether a full eruption is likely. All right.

So then these two ladies, they run into a classroom, and all the kids are

having the same dream. They had them draw the dream, and they all drew Godzilla.

Not only did they draw Godzilla, they drew Godzilla with fire and destruction

everywhere around him. They all had the same nightmare. It seemed to be coming out

of the volcano. Yeah,

that too. He might be being released from the volcano. He was trapped in an

Amaya movie. Yeah. We cut to some other dudes talking,

and that is our next clip. Oh, hello,

Colonel. Hey.

Yeah, I can tell you it's really exciting. Waiting for a lizard that never shows.

Nah, you gotta be joking, Colonel. I'm sure they're trying to get rid of.

I tell you, the most exciting thing that happens around here is betting who can

squash the most mosquitoes. Sure. God knows why I

accepted the assignment. Oh, by the way, I called you because I'd like to conduct

some research. And for that, I'll need your cooperation. Of course. Tomorrow,

10:30.

I don't think the Prime Minister believes her story. No, of course he doesn't.

She's just a nobody. If he started believing girls, talking about dreams

and extrasensory perception, he wouldn't stay Prime Minister very long. So tell me,

Gondo, do you believe? With the girls saying, Tell you the truth, I hope he

shows up. Because if it's just a lot of bull and I'll be out of

a job. Robotic engineering, computers,

superconductivity, laser technology. All the latest gadgets at

your disposal, including. Don't forget esp.

Geez, the army's really up to date, aren't they?

You've forgotten one thing. What's that? Well, you didn't mention our bioweapons.

Anti nuclear energy bacteria.

In the United States, they've already produced a bacteria that eats crude oil.

It's successfully on oil spills. And likewise, bacteria that eats

nuclear material has been developed by our scientists here. In the case of a nuclear

accident, the bacteria would clear up any pollution. It's nuclear material.

Did you say totally? Yes, totally. That's why I can work against Godzilla

who feeds on nuclear energy. You know, the situation isn't yet critical.

True, an orange alert has been issued and the bacteria must be got ready.

But still, the bacteria wasn't meant to be used as a weapon. Anyway, the problem

with this bacteria is it can't be made by this laboratory, not on its own.

We need a cell to create it. A Godzilla cell. You mean Godzilla feeds on

nuclear energy? Somewhere in the cell's structure, there nucleus digesting

set of genes. And so we need that set of genes to make the bacteria.

What you're saying is that something taken from the Godzilla cell structure

can be used to make something to destroy it. The Godzilla cells were discovered five

years ago. They were all collected by an army special unit. They're stored at the

Okochi Foundation. What else, Doctor? Is there anything else you need?

Just a few scientists. I'm sorry to disappoint you,

gentlemen, but I vowed never to work with the Godzilla cells again. I understand how

you must feel, Doctor, but it's vital for the defense of our country against Godzilla.

My daughter was more important to me than my country. I lost her because of

my work on the go. Godzilla cells. Nowadays, I have nothing left to live for.

I'm sorry. Thank you, but I'm not interested.

Oh, so you're Dr. Kirishima.

My daughter told me a lot about you. I'm glad I had the chance to

meet at last. My daughter also informs me that

you're a little critical of my project here. Extremely.

Yes. At least you're honest. However, I do feel that you, like most other

so called scientists, don't understand what I am doing here. I do realize,

of course, the dangers involved. After all, every coin has two sides. Well then,

in that case, you must realize what kind of weapon anti

nuclear bacteria would be. You are aware of that? I know that it could neutralize

nuclear missile overnight. Nuclear missiles would be redundant. If we

produce that bacteria, then the balance of power would. Well, Kirishima, Reality is

reality. Now this foundation has the technology to make that

Bacteria. The superpowers of the world will do anything to get their hands

on the Godzilla cell. If any country succeeded, I'd have to use force to recover

cells in the same way that America's Bio Major did attacked and

destroyed Shirigami's laboratory five years ago. The government decided to store the

Godzilla cells here in the Svault by way of precaution. They would remain in here

and only be used in case of a nuclear accident that would otherwise threaten the

country, and only under strict control. But then Godzilla came along. The rest is history.

Know something? I hate to leave the Jews locked away. Such a waste.

All right, and that's the end of that. 20 minutes before we go on to

the next. All right, did everybody get that from the dialogue, from all of the

clips? Or are they like us and not paying attention? Yeah, I'm pretty sure

they don't even know what the hell just happened. All I know is G

cells can make plants indestructible and

is competition for America. But it also kills

scientists daughters. When you mix plants with G cells,

that is. What? And they get a little pissy about that? Well, yeah, if you

tend to kill a scientist's daughter, you end up making a mad scientist.

It just happens. Even if it's a lab accident that is his fault. Yeah,

yeah, yeah. It's always that way though. I mean, or her

fault. Let's not be sexist here. Mad scientists generally tend to be men because

let's face it, men are the ones that usually can't handle emotional strife and

go mad. Yeah, I mean, that's kind of the case. But often it

can happen to where it can be a female mad scientist. But regardless

of that, if a scientist is a parent who loses a child in the process

of their odd science or weird science, they're destined to become

science. That's it. That's it. That's how it works. That's usually

how it always works. And there's like a lot of weird sci

fi shit in this because they have bacterias that eat crude oil for

spills and clean it up. And they don't talk about what the bacteria leaves

behind as waste byproduct that might be beneficial. They just say it

eliminates oil. But I'm looking at a slide rule here trying to figure

out how that works. But like, everything that devours something also has

to leave a waste byproduct usually. So if

it devours the oil, does it leave like the clean, fresh scent

of Pine Sol in the ocean for us all or something? You know, Wouldn't that

be just nice? But I highly doubt that's going to be the case. And then

also bacteria that can survive radiation and also devour

it. We have low levels of radiation in our bodies.

Perhaps having a bacteria that just devours only radiation and can survive isn't

the best thing to have around for, you know, living beings that also emanate

a little radiation themselves. Say what? I just not

trying to like be that guy. I just don't understand

the science behind this. Like super

strength bacterias that, you know, get rid of evil things that we

apparently have a problem with being the dependency on

oil that has oil spills everywhere and then radiation that's everywhere,

which is the byproduct of our nuclear power. I mean, if something like that would

exist and we could control it, Cool. But seems kind of terrifying to me.

Hey, can I tell you, you weren't put on this earth to get it.

Yes, Both me and Mr. Jack Burton, we were both not put

upon this earth to get it. We can move on then.

All right, there is an earthquake.

And this leads to our next clip. A short while ago,

a powerful eruption occurred on Mount Mihara, Oshima island.

It caused a series of strong tremors which were felt as far

away as Tokyo. The eruption is still going on, throwing huge chunks

of lava high into the night sky, giving the scene an eerie glow.

I must do something or else Erica will die. Good.

Dr. Shiragami, welcome to the team. Thank you. Dr.

Shiragami's accepted the position. Is that right? He's coming here tomorrow.

What? Yes, on one condition. He wants to be able to keep the Godzilla cells

in his laboratory for seven days. So of course I said it was quite okay.

So what are you going to be doing? Will you be making the bacteria

with Dr. Shiragami? Yes, to destroy Godzilla when it comes.

Sounds like you wish Godzilla would show up.

Maybe. But who knows if it'll show up or not. What if we go ahead

and make the bacteria and it's a false alarm? Well, that would suit me

fine. I could do without him.

But seriously, if he doesn't, we'll have made a far worse monster than him.

Come on. Case in point, the bacteria doesn't work right. What could go

wrong? You can make a far worse Godzilla because you just strengthened him against

something that can deplete his radiation. I guess from the sound of it,

lots of shit can go wrong.

Yeah, yeah. This is the around and find out kind

of science response to Godzilla in these Versus films. That's what I'm saying.

Yeah. Yeah, no, you're. You're exactly right. Well, the doctor

works with the cells, and the next day we cut to

the office in the meeting, and sure enough, it's our next clip. That's fair.

Talkie holes open. Yeah, it's only a minute bacterium we're

producing by genetic engineering a very simple life form. But still,

if research goes on the it is genetic technology sure to produce a

monster far worse than Godzilla. Kirishima, look, if we

don't produce this bacteria, and sure as eggs. As eggs, someone else is going

to do it. Just look at what human beings have done over the centuries and

you'll see. I know that, but our responsibility. Listen, Kirishima,

I have a feeling that you don't understand science very well.

You can see there's not a lot of movement. However, there's something happening in there.

The Super X2 has been substantially improved with the

introduction of the latest onboard supercomputer, which controls

automatic and remote functions. What is more,

it is now submersible. It can operate at extreme

depths down to 10,000 meters. Its armor is also

the latest TA323. It's twice as durable as the

titanium alloy armor on the old Super X. Right this

way, please.

And that is the Fire Mirror. It's also new, constructed entirely with

synthetic diamonds. And what's more, if the shield is hit by Godzilla's

radioactive heat rays, it has been designed to reflect their force a thousand

times more effectively. Hot stuff. Yes, it is. It's already started.

I'm always fascinated by cell division. Two cells in 30 minutes,

doubling to four in an hour. 32 cells in two hours.

In one day, 4 million cells. Terrifying, isn't it?

Okay, so it's a Fire Mirror that is made with synthet.

So they lab grew diamond panels to reflect Godzilla's

heat back at him. Yes. Magnify it. Supposed to be a large

reflector that can handle the explosive power of

Godzilla's atomic breath. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they looked

at King Caesar's eyes and went, I'm gonna steal that.

Yep, I'm gonna steal it. This is mine.

Of course, we never saw Godzilla fire a bolt into King Caesar's eyes.

It was always, you know, being used for returning the fire

from Mechagodz. But how cool of a finish would that have been if Godzilla

blew like a huge ton of atomic breath into one

eye for King Caesar, and then it blasts out the other, aiming at Mechagodzilla,

and just burns him alive like this? That'd be something like just burns

a hole through him. Right? From amplifier. Yeah, like. And then like then

they do a little callback here where they mention that. But the reason that they're

not doing that is this Godzilla is completely different. And hopefully I will go over

that when we actually cover the film last week. Even though we're recording last

week's episode next. So when we actually get to then, maybe then

we'll be next. Now? I don't know. We'll see. Then will be now and

soon. Let's move on. All right.

Two guys then ransack the lab of the doctor.

But however, that one assassin from the very beginning shows

back up and they get into a firefight, trashing the

lab up at this point. Then these plant

tentacles vines start grabbing the men and

killing them. Only the assassin dude gets away. This all leads

to our next clip. Hiroshima.

What? Dr. Shiragami's lab. The bodies belong to two of

biomages agents. They broke in to steal the papers on the anti nuclear

energy bacteria. God only knows how they died.

Is this why you'd been keeping the cells in your lab all week?

In the experiment, I thought I'd created an immortal plant species. I gave

it self reproducing abilities using Godzilla cells. You did what?

Yes, I thought. I think now I may have made a mistake.

You think, Doc, that you may have made a mistake?

After staring this gaping hole this plant has

made, right? Perhaps you have made

what some scientists would call a miscalculation.

We see one of the ladies, the ESP lady. She is looking

drawing a picture of the plant monster terrorists

are threatening. And that is our next clip.

And demand that you turn over the anti nuclear energy bacteria

not later than 2:00 tomorrow afternoon. Tuesday, Thursday 31st.

Or we shall be forced to cause an explosion that will destroy Mount

Mihara totally. Thereby releasing Godzilla. Here. It was

faxed to us. We received it this morning. The name of

the organization's alien imaginative. It's Bio

Major. They're the only ones who could know about the anti nuclear energy

bacteria. That's a bluff.

The pm. He's been too busy. He's more worried about the opposition

than Godzilla, I'd say. Well, they weren't bluffing. That phone

call was from Mount Mahara. There was an explosion, but it was just a warning.

Warning, huh? Read the rest. He'll understand. There is

more to the message. We have already made the necessary preparations to prove

we mean business. We shall set off a warning explosion at 1400 hours

today. 24 hours before the deadline. They're holding the entire country

to ransom that's right. And Godzilla is the hostage. Slow down.

Looks like this is it. Deliver the bacteria to

Bio Major. I understand. Well, if that's what

the government has decided. Whatever you say, sir.

I'll go with you. So you see,

science is just another host of politicians. So you're

going to leave it to them. We can't just sit here and do nothing.

Dr. Sherragoni. The lake.

Doctor. No, no, not the lake. The lake.

So anyway, they all head out there and there's the giant plant thing all

the way out by the lake. So just standing there,

the peeps are. It's a giant rose growing up

out of the middle of the lake. Like it's a puddle that a rose took

purchase in. Basically, yeah. Yeah, that is. That's a fact.

So they all the peeps are discussing what they're looking at. And that is

our next clip. You're looking at a rose. Why do we need a clip for

that? I don't know. I don't know, man. They talk about things. Important things.

I just can't believe it. What you're seeing there is no ordinary plot.

Biollante's the name.

Biollante? The spirit of a plant that appears in Norse

mythology. But that plant has

a human spirit. What do you mean, human spirit?

Yes, of course. If I'm not mistaken, Erica's spirit's in there. How do you know?

I can hear her calling me. Asuka, I'm gonna

need your help. Please. Please, madam. For your own sake.

So you did do it. You amalgamated one of God's Z cells

together with the plant cells. Are you proud of this?

What kind of science you call this?

The answer is mad science, kid. You call this mad science? What this

man has done. Weird science? No, he's graduated

from weird science to mad science. When he put the soul of his daughter into

a rose that he then half bred with Godzilla cells to

transform it into a giant rose growing out of a lake.

Good stuff. Yeah. Mad science, man.

So let. Here they go and meet up with

the guy to exchange cells for the switch to turn off the the

bomb. Then that secret hitman dude shows up and starts shooting at

all of them. The one dude gets away in the truck.

However, he gets shot and the truck crashes. They try to

deactivate the switch, but time expires. They're not able to.

And as they're doing that, the bad guy gets a hold of the cells and

drives off. The explosion happens. Godzilla is free. That's the

end of that toy. 20 minutes. Okay, this is definitely The Godzilla

from my movie. Because that's how he got trapped. That's how it ended. And they

made you think that maybe he got, you know, boiled alive inside of

the volcano or something like that. But no, he was just trapped inside the volcano

that they sort of deactivated with those explosions. And now a terrorist group

has unleashed Godzilla back onto Japan because they wanted

the anti radiation bacteria. Yes, yes. They wanted

to be able to have the same thing that these guys were going. Right.

But like. But they didn't care about fighting Godzilla. They just wanted to,

you know, they. Wanted it for reasons like to clean up the planet,

I think for the radiation. Because they're like a bio terrorist

or an echo terrorist organization, I think, is what they're supposed to be.

It's again, not really laid out all that clearly, but they

have their own, like, altruistic motives in mind that

they try to explain at some point that we should hear in one of the

clips, if I'm recalling correctly, like, they obviously don't think that

they're the villains. No, no. They think they're the good guys. Right. And they have

reasons for this besides religion. In this case, I think it might be,

you know, the environment. Right. It's their

echo task. So maybe that's what it is,

our ecology they're trying to save. I don't know.

Whatever that's about as far as you're going to get an explanation from the movie

on this. So so far we have daughter infused with the spirit

of a plant that started having some G cells.

Then the father gets the G cells again as a mad scient.

So he takes that same plan and continues growing it more

and more and more, infusing more Godzilla DNA to the

point where at some point coming up here shortly, whenever they fight,

he states that they're the exact same creature, although there is zero plant

DNA in my Godzilla. So they're not

the same creature, like genetically speaking. But he's saying that Godzilla DNA

is in there, so that makes them the same.

No, it's Godzilla DNA and something else. So it's therefore

not the same. Right. If you mix mayonnaise into ketchup, it's not ketchup anymore.

Like an island dressing without, you know. You know

what I'm saying? Like it's something. No, I get you. Yeah.

And you know, genetically speaking, you change one thing, you change a

whole lot of stuff about a species. So turning something

into a plant Godzilla hybrid is something completely

different than Godzilla. Yeah, but I mean, it's fun.

Yeah. And this Biollante is like the spirit of plants

in Norse mythology. Where the fuck did that even come from? Other than the guy

just no idea there. I don't know.

Nothing but north, you know, mentality to.

Know about, I don't know about.

Yeah, I'm like, I'll take your word for it, Doc.

Yeah. If that's the explanation as to where this creature came from,

great. But the more we see Biollante, the more

I'm starting to think, when was that Little Shop of Horrors musical

turned into a movie? Yeah, right.

And did that have any, any influence on the look and feel of Biollante

as a creature? Because I'm starting to wonder.

Obviously not here as much in the rose version.

It's not until it has to defend itself later that we're going to be seeing

shortly that it really starts to take on. But it's final form that's on the

COVID The posters. And how you see Biollante in its final form

for fighting is pretty much how you see Biollante from here on out.

That is 100. Gotta be influenced in some way, shape or form by

a Little Shop of Horrors. Dude, it has, has to be. It's got to be.

Yeah, but didn't we see a movie like

this? But where there's a thing.

Maybe I'm thinking of a whole different movie. Nah, never mind. Don't worry about it.

I'm already, I'm already done with that one. Yeah, that thought just

went nowhere. And I'm going to just leave it all in because sometimes,

sometimes our thoughts go nowhere. Sometimes people want to know

what, what that's like. Let's go ahead and move

in. Is this the final amount or. No, no, no.

It's just the next 20. Okay, so we're, we're, we're going in 20 minute.

This is an hour and 44 minute movie. So we got seven.

We got seven of these breaks. Then with you, if we're going every 20 minutes,

let's move on. Yeah. All right. Well, we start the next 20

with our next clip. That's fair. Godzilla comes back again and

we lose the anti nuclear energy bacteria. I guess things

are about as bad as they could get.

Well now, you miserable little people of Tokyo, you've done well to tune

in for this is a show that's got everything. You'll see news item

coming in. Just don't go away. In the United States today, new laws were.

Oh, excuse. And here's the latest news bulletin. An explosion occurred this afternoon on

Mount Bahara. Godzilla has escaped and is still at large. So Godzilla's back

again. We have to get back to Tokyo. Dr. Frail,

Auntie's crying. I can hear her.

The Coast Guard in the Tokyo Bay area is warning inhabitants of the monster's advance

and is evacuating coastal settlements in its path. And we have

just received these pictures. Godzilla is once more on the move, albeit slowly.

It has left Oshima island and is now heading up the Uraga Channel in the

direction of Tokyo. All right. Well, the navy is starting

to try to fight Godzilla. But of course it's not going very well.

They get back to a console control center and

Godzilla at this pace will be into Tokyo in 24 hours.

So launch their special battleship that can fly,

has that deflector. The ship battles Godzilla and sends him underwater.

They really get a a good run out of this. He.

Godzilla does not know what to do with this thing. And this deflector

does its job and it damages Godzilla. Yeah, it looks like they

may have the upper hand for once with Godzilla.

So anyway, it sends Godzilla underwater.

The ship then goes follows him underwater. And this leads to our

next clip. Godzilla's turning west. Sir. Colonel,

sir, Telephone for you. Seems Godzilla's given up. Heading for

Tokyo. Yes, toroke here. Hello, Mr. Gondo? Shall we sound

the all clear for the Tokyo Bay area, sir? What was that?

I think the dangers past. They stole the anti nuclear bacteria.

Close all the airports. I understand. Right away. Yes, sir.

It may be wise to wait before you give the all clear. If I were

you, sir, I'd tell the press that we're still fighting Godzilla in the Araga Channel.

Karagi. That's deliberate disinformation. Your attention please.

This is an announcement from the airport management office. The airport

is closing down and shall be evacuated due to the advance of Godzilla

off Tadayama. All flights have been cancelled.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Here is

the late news bulletin. Godzilla has stalled its advance in a stationary

between Yupura and Tatiana. Haneda and Narita airports

have been closed to all traffic until. God damn it.

Standby for the next update in one hour.

The agent's car has been spotted. It's on the Tomei highway heading west.

Tomei? Yeah. So where the hell can he be going? Seradia National Oil

Corporation. The only company Seradians have in the country that are front for their

spy. Inactive, based in Osaka. Managed by an ex secret agent of theirs.

Every week they're afraid to lease Kobe for Seradia. So you think

they'll try to smuggle it out by sea? If only we can Retrieve the bacteria.

Then we can defeat Godzilla. And then, of course, we shall have an almost endless

supply of Godzilla Cell. Yes, I see. But Shiragami

is. Dr. Shiragami? Excuse me, I'm from TNN Television.

I'd like to talk to you if you have a moment. I'd heard that through

your experiments, you'd succeeded in combining the cells of a plant with those of Godzilla

to create a super plant. Dr. Shiragami. You people always

criticize scientific experiments without understanding that true value scientists

have to look to the future.

Maybe it's no longer Erica's spirit. Doctor. It doesn't read anymore.

Communication has ended. You mean violent is just a.

Violent is just a cross between a plant and Godzilla.

What is it? Godzilla.

What?

Godzilla's coming. Biollante was calling out to Godzilla.

Godzilla's turning north towards Ottawara. What shall I do, sir? Keep it away

from the coast. Keep it out in the water. Understand, sir. Start underwater

attack. Oh God.

The music for the Super X2 is almost worse than the music for Super

X1, right? Jesus. All right,

so more Godzilla fighting with the battleship. The shit's deflector

does melt, however, and is damaged, so it can't uses it. And then

Zilla crashes the ship because. Hey, you.

Yeah, this is a vengeful Godzilla in the Verse series.

He's very mean spirited. And this is some of my favorite Godzilla stuff

is the mean spirited Godzilla from this series? Yeah, yeah,

yeah. It's. It's fun.

Let's see here. Okay,

so the plant starts crying and calling out to

Godzilla. So Godzilla shows up

and the plant attacks Godzilla. And this leads to our next

clip. I just wonder, did Godzilla come all this way to see

Biollante because it knew they were made from the same cells?

Yes, it's a possibility. After all, they're of the same family.

More than just the same family.

They are both made from the same cells. They're identical. The same

thing. Not brother and sister. They're both the same creature.

No, we already kind of talked about that. Yeah, they're made from

the same cells, but the other cells are drastically different.

So I don't know who you think you are to argue with.

I'm a guy that's following the plot line a little more closely. And once you

start altering something, it's no longer the same. Sounds like you're doing your

own research. Yes, I googled Biollante

construction and therefore my confirmation bias has

told me I've done my own research.

So then Godzilla shoots the plant with its atomic breath. It falls

apart but the vines are still attacking from the water. It spits

acid and gives Godzilla a bit of a groove green facial. It's kind

of messed up. Yeah. That was weird. Yeah. Godzilla then lights it back

up with some more atomic breath. It burns, but still stands.

And the doctor theorizes that the plant may be immortal. Oh, that's just

what we need. Yeah, right. They're trying to fix the ship.

And this leads to our next clip. Godzilla's in Sagami

Bay, so it's out to sea. Yeah, we're trying to fix it.

That's right. Sure, right. Well then, the computer's

okay as far as we can determine. The remote control would need replacing, but that's

okay. However, the Farmer is out of action. We can

patch up the armor, no problem. But the Farmer is a problem. Can't you fix

it? It's been deformed badly in too many places. Godzilla has melted a

mirror made of synthetic diamond. That's beyond our technological limits.

This is Chopper three. No signal. And I have a raider or sonar over

this. Chopper one, Godzilla is nowhere to be received. All units stand by.

This is Chopper two. I want another search made of Saraga Bay and the surrounding

area. Yes, right away, sir. If you lose Godzilla this time, we will never get

another chance. That's for sure. This is Charlie Foxtrot.

We're over the sea just off Omizuki Point. We'll continue to search the bay area

and the Pacific coast for as long as possible. Charlie Foxtrot, continue low

level search pattern and reference 420964.

Doctor. Ms. Okochi, Colonel Karaki

wants you on the phone. Do you think it's possible she could detect Godzilla underwater

from a helicopter like she did over the volcano?

I'm low on fuel. We go any further, we won't make it back to Tokyo.

Just a little further. Okay, we'll head for Osaka.

It's here. Underneath. It's moving slowly.

Godzilla is moving west, 100km off Hamatsu. The last time

Godzilla attacked, it ate a lot of nuclear material at an atomic plant

to store energy. This time, it doesn't have any supplies of nuclear material.

And by fighting Super X2 and Biollante, it must have lost a great deal of

energy. Do you think there's a possibility it'll head for an atomic plant? Yes.

Where are the nearest? There's one at my Zuru, one at Obama,

and there are three at Suragay. That makes a total of five. That's a

third of all the plans in the country. So if Godzilla did Go that way.

It'll be a disaster even if only. One of those plants is destroyed.

Judging by Godzilla's latest position, the nearest one would be here. That's Nagoya,

isn't it? We have to organize defenses, send a message. I want Super

X2 sent into the bay. I want air cover at all times and ground

troops on the three peninsulas around the bay. Here is where we'll launch our

attack. All right, so. And that's the

end of that 20 before we go to our next 20. Yeah, we moved through

that 20 relatively quickly. The initial

fight between Biollante and Godzilla is basically a giant

rose that sends out the little pods that resemble the Little Shop

of Horrors mouths, only more lizard. Like, because it's, you know, made up of

Godzilla cells, obviously, and Godzilla melting the whole thing, and then

it just basically catching on fire. And then like pieces of it go flying

up into the air and going kind of everywhere, and then just disappear into the

cosmos. It kind of goes like really kind of supernatural

spir with Biollante at some point, like it's an immortal

being now that can't be killed because now

that it's burning up, it's like these little Fairy Light things that go off

into the cosmos, like and become space dust. What?

Yes. Space spores. I'd say spores. Okay,

space spores. Right, and these spores will live on for like, ever.

But like now Biollante is just gone. Yeah, in the film, right, like just.

Just. I think so. Go be space spores for a while. Why not?

Maybe that's how they regenerate, so they can, you know, give fix themselves.

How does the scientist know that that's a sign of immortality and not just burning

embers? Because he just

does Cort. Okay, I'm just gonna Google some more

stuff, quote, unquote, do my own research by finding some confirmation biased

on this, and we can move on. All right, the next 20. The army is

starting to get ready and there are dudes driving to try to get the

the Godzilla cells. In our next clip, an all

out. Attack at Issei Bay. Godzilla is just as likely to

show up in Wakasa Bay. What if they send in everyone and Godzilla doesn't show?

What do we do then? Well, it's an interesting

question, but a vital one.

22nd and 23rd Battalion, prepare to move the position. Immediate mobilization.

Godzilla surface. Colonel? It's moving towards Osaka, sir. Osaka?

Send Super X2 after it. Yes, sir. Send the battle fleet to the Key Channel.

Very well. We must expressway and evacuate troops to Osaka.

It's too late. There's no time for that. Yes, I know it's too late,

but what else can we do? We must mobilize all troops along the Meshima Expressway.

We must prepare for a counter attack in Wakasa. If we send the troops to

Osaka, we don't have a chance. However, just there in Wakasa,

we may be able to beat it. And then what happens to Osaka? Task I

was given was to defeat Godzilla, sir. Godzilla's advance on Osaka has got

to be delayed. You'll have to evacuate the city of Osaka. Get in touch with

Mitsokichi and Osaka. Right away, sir. I know the song says, oh, no, there goes

Tokyo. Go Godzilla. But it's actually Osaka

that Godzilla ends up really spending a lot of time up in

these movies, folks. Yeah, yeah. A lot of ups happening right now.

So then they drop the two ladies off in

an oil rig so the one can try to communicate with Godzilla,

and she is able to get a hold of him. But then two army dudes,

they talk, and you know what? It's dialogue. And I got lazy. It's our next

clip. That's fine. What is this? Psychokinesis? Whatever it is, it's just in the

mind. You can't expect that girl to defeat Godzilla. It's too ridiculous.

Even if she is a girl, she's a great help to us. She could even

delay Godzilla's landing in Osaka with a little luck. I trust her ability

in esp, Even. Though she's just a girl. She has esp? I was

gonna say. And sexist. Doesn't matter.

Yeah. Well, what the. I'm not sure

I follow this thread of this psychic person that communicates with Godzilla

in some way, shape or form, can kind of convince him to go elsewhere.

You know, like, also. Also can talk to plants,

right? And, you know, has this psychic connection to Biollante and plants,

and realizes that the professor's daughter's spirit is in Biollante,

which she's basically the only one that really tells us that.

And then the doctor, like, confirms it, that he genetically engineered a

plant to house his daughter's spirit and then immediately made it immortal,

even though we watched it burn to embers and the embers go flying off into

space. That's about right. That's everything that's been said to us.

That's everything that's been shown to us. And that's. That's everything that we know right

now. Right? And I already said that Biollante gets a final form that we have

seen. Yet. So. Yes, Biollante is coming back. Yes, I'm being

a little facetious. I'm just saying this film may not

have been thought out all that thoroughly when written. At least the

English dub version of it anyway. I don't think the Japanese version explains

it any better. Yeah, probably not. We can move on. I'm good.

All right. So she does get Godzilla's

attention, and while she communicates with them, she faints because of so much

power. But anyway, Godzilla moves on and he's heading to

Osaka. But that was kind of the plan and what the lady was

supp to do. The two other guys, they are able

to attack a worker and get the Godzilla cells back.

The bad guy gets a call from the boss, the other boss of the company,

and they put a hit out on the doctor who's working with the Godzilla cells.

Godzilla hits Osaka and it becomes just a really great.

He's damaging everything and destroying all the. So the

model work in this sequence specifically looks incredible.

Incredible. Yeah, it's good stuff. The. The late 80s into

the 90s run has some of the best fucking model work on

some of this sudimation stuff like Godzilla 1984 or

1985 or, you know, Return of Godzilla had some incredible

model work. They continued it here. They're using more of this stuff.

They have an entire model city in this film that he walks through.

And it just looks amazing. It really does. It's.

It's a lot of awesome work on this one. I. I thought

better than all the other movies. And then it's a change for me because it's.

All the other movies were kind of like old fashioned Japan villages.

Now it's a big city being attacked. Yeah, it's definitely

a step up when we get to the 80s, when you start seeing more cityscapes

being destroyed with Japan and then into the 90s, it steps up even more when

we continue on, it really starts to escalate from here

where they're really trying to make things look more believable and more like an actual

monster. And you don't have to push the I believe button as much because you

actually watch Godzilla go through actual models of buildings that

are bigger than. Yeah, yeah. In these exact. It's incredible.

Well, the military lands and they have a plan.

They're going to use bazookas to get this. The Godzilla

sells the. The stuff they made that supposed to hurt Godzilla into

them. So they drop off the army, the ship

battles Godzilla to get Zilla kind of down to where

they need them. And then all the army guys, they shoot the bazookas,

they all make a direct hit. However, the colonel, who's out on the mission,

he makes a fancy little joke about. Hey, Zilla, this stuff might

not be so good for you. And. And then Godzilla hits the building he's in

and he dies. That's kind of a thing. People with bazookas

get Godzilla pissed off and he takes them out later in film.

And it starts here. Yeah. All this

leads to our next clip. After landing in Osaka

and devastating the city yesterday, Godzilla has moved north into the Tampa

mountains. She admitted as much energy as Godzilla did,

so it's no wonder. She's completely exhausted. She shouldn't have died. She could have died.

Yes, I called for Mr. Kirishima. He'll be right there.

Thanks. Oh, yes, Colonel. Right, right. It's been well over

14 hours now. There still doesn't seem to be any change in Godzilla.

If the bacteria doesn't work in the next eight hours, then we've had it.

Is that right? I understand. I'll get a chopper. See you in Tokyo.

Antinuclear bacteria can take effect up to six to 12 hours. On average,

it's eight hours. I just don't understand why nothing's happened yet. Maybe Godzilla is

just too massive for the dose. No. One shell should have been sufficient. Godzilla got

three shells, and one of them was fired directly into his mouth. So the dose

is lethal. I don't understand. Neither do ice

blocks. The refrigeration's off. When Godzilla attacked yesterday,

it took out the power plant. The hospital's generator can't cope with the overload.

What's the matter? I wonder if

Godzilla's temperature. Yes, I suspect he has a low temperature. Is it

important? We've no data concerning Godzilla's

body temperature, so I don't know, Doctor, why?

Bacteria breeds more slowly when the temperature's low. So the lower its

body temperature, the slower the effect. Oh, so you mean that the bacteria

won't work because it's a cold blooded creature? Yes, it's a possibility. So then,

if we can get Godzilla's temperature to rise. Yes, but how?

M6000TC system Karaki. TC system Thunder

Control System. It creates artificial thunder, causing high frequency waves

to generate clouds, then heat. Like a giant microwave oven. Karaki. We can't

hear that system. It's still in the research stage. All right.

That's. I believe. Yeah, that's the end of that. 20 minutes before we.

Now, before we go into our final 20. Okay,

so the bacteria will work, and it is eating the radiation. But because Godzilla

is a lizard and has very cold Blood temperatures.

Yeah, it's too. So the bacteria works much slower. So then

they have to warm Godzilla up by putting them on a giant heat rock

that's Godzilla sized so that the bacteria can eat his

radiation away, which is feeding him, and they can forcibly starve him

to death. Yeah, that is. That is correct.

Okay, That's. That's. That's everything going on

right now. So I don't. I don't know. Maybe. Do you want to move on?

Yeah, let's. Let's do it. All right. Rolling into the final 20. The army

gets everything set a big, like, trap area that has these kind of almost

mines. But the mines really warm up Godzilla. It'd be

super hot. They say it can melt the tank. And then they have laser antennas

to kind of keep them in place. Those are the masers I was talking about

a while back. They're definitely masers here. They don't start until

a couple of more movies in. I think eventually you will hear them refer to

them as masers. But that's definitely what these things are.

Yeah. So anyway, then we see the L lady

who is a psychic. She's drawing the flower in the stars.

Then we, you know, we're still having more of the army setting everything up.

Godzilla approaches. Godzilla steps in the first mine.

Everything's going. They're. They're raising his temp as

he's still standing on these things. Getting electrocuted,

however. Then he starts wrecking and he destroys the first line

of the fence. The ladies show up and they tell the

doctor that the plant's still alive. Godzilla then fights off

different helicopters which are trying to keep him in where he's supposed

to be. So the doctor

now wonders if Godzilla is now immune to all this stuff. You know,

the. The what? They fought into him. One of the ladies runs off and

sees lights in the sky. Spores start

falling and Balalante shows up. Ev. Now it

has a face. It spews on Godzilla.

Zilla. They fight a little bit more, but Godzilla then

falls and passes out. And this leads to our next clip. Look.

The bacteria's taking effect.

Dr. Shiragami, congratulations. One day we're

going to put all of this to good use. We have to isolate samples of

the gene and put them into production at once. I won't continue my work

on bacteria anymore. Biollantes convinced me of that. What is the matter?

You have to continue with your work, Doctor. You've got all the cells you'll ever

need. Godzilla and Bio aren't monsters. It's the unscrupulous scientists who create

them who are monsters. Little Frankenstein's

monster action in that dialogue. Yep, yep. So the spores go back

into the sky and then you hear a voice say, thank you.

And as the doctor is coming to realize that his daughter isn't.

Is still kind of alive in this boy Lenti,

all of a sudden he is shot by the hitman. The other dude,

doctor dude, chases after him. They get into a fight

and he pushes the dude under one of the, you know, big landmine

things that Godzilla's standing on. So he melts. He just dies.

The lady, the lady, who's that guy's girlfriend, shows up and he's like,

hey, are, you know, is the doctor all right? She's like, nope, he's dead.

So of course that that happened.

And the movie kind of deals with it like that. I. I got to point

out the guy pushes. Doesn't necessarily push him onto

the thing that's already heated up. The guy gets on there and tries to take

a shot at our. And the other army guy sees that. You'Re standing there

and fire up that mine to make it

do the superheating, and it just basically vaporizes the dude before he can get a

shot off. It's actually like cold blooded murder on the part of that military dude

who seems really satisfied with himself that he did that. Well, he said because he

killed the cold blooded murderer. Right? The guy's a fucking assassin. I'm not crying

over it or anything, but like, maybe. Maybe he should feel at least a little

bit bad that he did it that way. There's no due process on

that one. Yeah, exactly. But he is informed that the doctor

is dead. Godzilla then wakes up ahead, backs out to sea. And this

leads to our final clip.

And this lucky couple's going to America.

A nice thought, but I've canceled America.

Why is that? Because wherever you go, people are the same.

There's good and there's bad in every country.

Then where will you go? Well,

first of all, to bed, I should think.

I haven't slept in ages. Got room for

me? Do you snore?

Non stop.

How long have we been living in such an age?

Maybe it started when man first.

First stepped out of the Garden of Eden and left his

innocence behind. Man would do well to

remember this day forever. And then we

get some biblical bullshit there at the end. What the fuck? Yeah, yeah. I don't

know. Sounds. Sounds kind of dumb to me. Yeah. So anyway,

roll credits. Cinema PsyOps. 10 years.

10 years. Okay. I have a lot of things that I've said

negatively about this film, but the fight between Biollante and Godzilla,

which we didn' lot about, is pretty cool. Yeah, I figured we're wait, saving it

for this. It's pretty cool. There's a lot of sequences of exploding

plant blood acid stuff that like Godzilla

biting tentacles off. Yeah, yeah. He's like biting the plant tentacle

combination things or roasting them with his atomic breath.

And one of the reasons why I like this series more for Godzilla is

he goes right to atomic breath for like everything. Like a helicopter goes

past his head, he fries it like it doesn't fuck. Nothing fucking

matters. This Godzilla's like, I'm killing everything that comes near me.

Yeah, yeah. This Godzilla is the one that reemerges

that like all the 1954 ones are gone. It got buried in a fucking volcano.

So he re emerges after you know, 1954 to like 1984

or whatever. So 30 years that he'd been gone in that.

In this version of the series, he re emerges, fucks shit up. They lock him

in a volcano, which obviously would piss him off even more. He gets out

of the volcano he has to deal with with his Biollante shit. They shoot him

up with some fucking bacteria. They use biological warfare on him.

Then Biollante starts fighting with him. And he still does his best to fuck up

biollante. And then he just gets too tired because he gets too overheated

with the fucking bacteria inside of him. But then they

didn't pay enough attention because he falls into the water, which cools him back off

enough for him to get up and go away. And I'm pretty sure that he's

going to overcome that bacteria. So like the cadmium bullets

last week we now have, you know, this,

this Godzilla is now going to be resistant to bacteria

that eats radiation and cadmium. I guess it's like

when you do too much antibiotics,

they become useless. Yeah, the super bacteria or

whatever from too much antibiotics. It's a possibility. Yeah,

we've already seen that once. You can't kill Godzilla. You only make him stronger.

And. Yeah, there we go. Good times.

Again. It's not. I enjoyed the movie. It was fun to see,

I suppose we saw it last week, but it was fun

to see Godzilla in a more modern time.

Yeah, these. This series will definitely deliver that.

Very less cartoonish looking at this point.

Very much more violent. A lot more oriented towards grown ups

that kind of grew up with the original run of Godzilla. And they want

to have a little bit more in their Kaiju. I Mean, yeah, lots of

people die in these films. In the version Versus series,

lots of people. Like Godzilla's fallen into buildings that they aren't

getting evacuated in time quite frequently in these.

Yes, yes, more people die, which is, which is good.

That's a good thing. And I think they were saving a little bit of money

by having Godzilla go out to a lake and, you know, they can reuse

their water pit to fight the initial Rose version

of Biollante. And then they have him go to a mountain so that they have

an open set. They don't have to worry about trashing some buildings. And yet he

still walks through a cityscape and fucks it the fuck up for a good portion

of this film as well. They're definitely. Yeah, they're definitely spending the money

where they need to be spending it. Yeah. Was this

movie maybe about 20 minutes too long, probably? Oh,

yeah, that's a, That's a downside to the Versus series. They're a little

bit longer and there's a lot more human stuff that is boring as

shit. Like, we didn't need any of this, like, intrigue of this guy running around

trying to steal stuff for his country. You know, it's just they throw

a little extra stuff in because they want to. They want to try and keep

your attention and they want to try and keep it a little more grown up.

And the geopolitical commentary stuff that they end up putting in the

last two films that we've covered this week or this recording session is

basically kind of a little bit of just stuff that they're padding it out

with to get the longer run time. And honestly, all that stuff can be gone.

Just deal with the direct science and like, some of the stuff with the G

cells a little bit and just give me the monsters battling it out in this

bacteria thought, you know, but the, the. The series is basically responding

so far with Godzilla, with, hey, let's shoot them with these magic bullets, or let's

shoot them up with this biological weapon. Like, this is

the solution for a lot of things. At one point they're like, hey, let's shoot

a black hole at him and see what happens. You guys want

to shoot some, I don't know, fucking A nuke at

this point? Well, not. No, they did try it, but they were

going to try it in my movie, but that ended up having to be a

backfire where they didn't want to do that because then it ends up nuking the

area that he's attacking, which is Japan. So that's why they don't do it

in this. Although you do see that in the Monsterverse in like the 50s,

they try to drop a nuclear bomb on a better looking Godzilla.

That's in the actual Monsterverse series for

like the legendary films of Godzilla, that version of it. There was a

monster verse like the Monarch, the series that's on Apple

tv, I think it is. There's actually a sequence where they

attract Godzilla to a nuclear bomb and then blow it up.

And he didn't look like he does in the very first 2014

Godzilla movie at that time. That's actually a heavily scarred

Godzilla that got burnt by radiation from that bomb blowing up

and then observed absorbed all of the radiation after the

bomb went off. But the blast actually scorched him up and made him look kind

of like that in that rough. Well,

that happens. Yeah, it's just. That's something that

happens. Well, and then 2014, like they light off a nuclear

bomb that ends up, you know, raising him again and, you know, all of that

kind of stuff. But you always gotta raise them again. Right. It comes

all the way down to. At this point, Toho decided they didn't

want to watch Godzilla eat. So what Godzilla ends up doing is absorbing radiation.

And that's how he eats. That's how he lives. He's always close to the center

of the earth to absorb radiation is the idea that that's what he does when

he's resting and when he doesn't come back around. But when he's really, really wanting

a snack, he's gonna come up and eat. A nuclear facility like we saw in

my movie. And they were worried about the nuclear facilities

in this film because they were actually trying to defend them. But no, he was

going for that Biollante rose because it. Him. Him. It. Yeah,

I guess. Yeah. I mean, you're not wrong.

Well, we can move on. Why don't we do a quick story time and then

get the out of here for everybody? What do you think? All right. All right.

Why not? All right, so I'm going to play on the pirate radio edit Richard

Marks with the song Right Here Waiting, which was also released in 1989.

Like Godzilla versus Biollante. And Biollante was right

there waiting for Godzilla too. So it fits. Come back,

we'll have a story time.

More and more realities were engulfed in the matrix of connected

Mobius Loops of annihilation, as each court working on the project individually

had discovered and created the same invention without ever realizing other

versions of themselves were doing the same work. Only one of all

of the mad scientist versions of Cort was completely inept

and unable to accomplish the most remedial of tasks. To connect with

other realities, manipulate the time chicken, or even

properly create a podcast. The only thing he was ever any good

at doing was using his family's ill gotten gains in mining to purchase

companies and sloppily rebrand them as his own company and himself as the

founder. Seriously, this specific Cort is so pathetic.

He pays people to level up characters to pretend that he likes video

games in an attempt to feel cool. It is a widely accepted

fact that this is the absolute worst version of Cort that ever existed.

Seven Court is his chosen moniker. So Matt, how long

has it been since you've had to hear that Richard Marx song that we totally

played live for us to listen to and didn't make everybody else suffer for

him? Not long enough.

I don't hate Richard Marx, but that's not my favorite song.

Actually I don't even know what my favorite song of his would be at this

point. Honestly, I don't think. I don't hate him, but I don't have a favorite

song of his nor do I have like a most hated song.

Like there's nothing that he has done that's, you know,

made my energy go up or down that much.

You're just completely non plus by the guy, right? Yeah, pretty much.

Well, let's hope nobody has that reaction to your story time. Of course they

will.

Story time. Game.

Story time. And I still play the whole thing for you.

Yes, thank you. Well, it's sports ball season. The NCAA

tournament is currently happening, so I have. My story time is pretty

much. I've spent my last like three days at

a sports bar watching the NCAA tournament.

My bracket is looking outstanding because this is one of my favorite

times a year. My very own basketball team,

however, just lost last night in the second round

and it hur me they probably should have won that game,

but whatever. Anyway, the story time is this. So the

sports bar I go to, I'm kind of pretty well known at.

I go there all the time. It's one of my favorite places to go.

And anyway, I come walking in and the guy who kind of runs the place,

he goes, matt, because I came in on Thursday morning

and he goes, matt, I thought you died. I go, what do

you mean? He goes, somebody came in, I guess Wednesday,

even though we had a blizzard here on Wednesday. Which by the way, that should

have probably been a story that was insane,

that blizzard everything up. But he

goes, they were still. He was he made it in there and then he

just kind of stayed open a bit. You know, he runs it. He sent like

old waitresses home and stuff. He goes, yeah, go home because it'll be safer for

you there. And then he got a few people who came in. He goes out,

what the hell? Because he's the decision maker there. So he's like,

I can decide to stay myself. So he.

Somebody came in and it was this woman. And she goes,

matt died. And he go, matt who? She goes,

yeah, no, you know him. He's about 46, which is my

age, give or take. And so

he was like, what? And then she showed a picture and it wasn't

me. But what made him nervous was the first picture she showed.

There was a guy in the picture with this guy who looked very

much like me. So for he. He was like, for 10 minutes I thought you

had died. But then I'm like, but I don't know. He's like, I didn't know

who this woman was. I never. He goes, I knew it wasn't your wife.

And I'm like, maybe did Matt have a girlfriend? I'm like, well,

if case, that would be the reason I'd be dead. Yep.

Yeah. If I somehow had a magical other girlfriend,

I would certainly would have been a dead man in every sense of

the word. But yeah, so there's my story time. People thought

I died. Wow. Well,

I'm really glad that they were wrong, Matt. Yeah, me too.

It's a good thing. All right, well, why don't

we get the out of here with that very happy note of Matt's still alive.

Alive and kicking everybody. And we're gonna.

We're gonna go ahead and play the show Housekeeping. And immediately following that on the

pirate radio edit, arguably the best song that we have played yet for

this show. Young MC with Bust a Move, also released in 1989

immediately following this. If you've decided you can't get enough.

Of the show, it is a widely accepted fact that this is the

absolute worst version of Cort that ever existed. Seven Court

is his chosen moniker. Seven Court Court emerged as the one version

of Cort that was so self involved and narcissistic enough to steal

the credit for the creation of not only the concept of the Mobius

loop of annihilation, but also the execution and design of

the matrix of connected Mobius loops of annihilation. This design

was actually witnessed by a lab tech inside of the Edison electric

car plant's research facility that had created an alternate

reality viewing device and was Watching it be created by a parallel version

of Cort, the lab tech copied the plans and formulas for creating a

Mobius loop of Annihilation and connecting it to a matrix of other Mobius

loops. The stolen plans were delivered to Zevin Kord, who completely

misunderstood their purpose or what they represented, even after it

was explained to him using puppets and crayons multiple times.

Zevin immediately thought he could improve on the designs and formulas

and forced his employees to use his error prone formulas and anti

Semitic safety cost cutting measures to build a prototype in the hopes

of colonizing other realities. While still operating on the assumption

that the word annihilation in the name of the designs meant something completely

different than the accepted definition found in any reference material that defines

such things. These changes caused horrific malfunctions

and fractured the structure of the matrix of connected Mobius

loops of annihilation. The break in temporal space time within the

matrix once continued connected to Zevin's shoddy work ripped open the original

plane of reality that started all of their horrific existences.

The discovery of the source of their shared creations was realized in

that moment and all of the evil versions of Cort began working together.

The League of Evil Corts allowed Zevon to take credit for their work,

knowing all was to be annihilated by the loops, including him. The Evil corts

let Seven throw temporal damaging temper tantrums and play pretend

at being the great conqueror he dreamed to be. All the while they secretly

laughed behind his back. These temporal temper tantrums are exponentially

damaging to your currently perceived reality and are undeniably noticeable and

permanent as your reality grows more chaotic and idiotic with

each passing breath. If the reality in these transmissions seems like

a fiction written as a satire, this is in no way from copying it or

making a commentary on anyone currently living. Get it? No persons

living or dead are referenced in any way. Similarities are because your

reality's warping to become as awful as the fictions depicted on this

show.

Yeah, just get up and bust them out. Yeah, yeah, come on Fat. So just

move and I'm like, he's talking to me. Yeah, I feel so

seen right there.

Well, while you're out there trying to unpack that self deprecating humor,

I would advise, advise you to not do that. Just go ahead and enjoy the

song, I remember you from Skid Row and Kick the fuck out

of this week and make it your bitch.

We realize this information is a lot to absorb right now.

Even if no persons living or dead are referenced in any way, any similarities

are because your reality's warping to become as awful as the fictions

depicted on this show and not for any other reason. Perhaps this song

will clear up how this is all a fictional universe and not really the reason

everyone is going to be annihilated in your reality.

Listen to the story of the Z Von.

You may think it's BS but I assure you it's

no fun. There's a man I knew name Zon.

Cheap bagel, bacon, dental extraordinaire.

Now his name is superhero. It all started

in 1954. Him and his

family have generations of men be using

his parents money to buy our properties. Y'all now

has a deal. He let him live only if he took the credit.

Hip on Zon still we.

You know Zon cuz he owns all the

factories. Listen children, he's the hero

that will teach you children that you two fender to calm

the sis.

It's just that it's destroying my bloodshed boner. Okay.

Yeah. Your bloodshed boner lasts more than four hours.

I rented out my womb. I rented out my womb. Your bloodshed boner

owner lasts more than four hours. Yeah, I see you, but I don't

hear you. Hello. Yeah. Now I hear you. There we go. Yay. I hear and

see you. So that means that we can. Well, I hear and see your avatar.

But that means we can do this recording in progress.

Yay. All right, obviously we're gonna do your episode

first. So we have to do the atchiskatchen back and forth with time shifts and

all of that. Yes, but I'm ready to rock if you are. We're already

recording. Yeah, let's do it. All right, if we need to, we'll drop out clips

and everything, but I think we're sitting. Okay, if we do about an hour a

piece to get you out by 4:30, I think. Yeah, I think so. All right,

so let's stop fucking around and let's go ahead and get started. Let's do it.

All right. Episode 504, 3, 2,

1. Bev's upstairs taking a shower cuz she dyed her

hair and the noise of the fucking water flowing

through the pipes is coming through my mouth. Tell me something, love, Jesus,

why do you suddenly. All right, we're good. Finally. Stop.

So a bunch of kids. Holy shit.

Okay, it's over. Three minutes. Jumping around. They literally talk

about everything they're gonna do before they do it right. This is

like the cliche for all Japanese movies that people always

talk about with the over talker aspects of everything.

Yes, they literally way Over. Explain everything.

All right, coming back in three, two, one.

God damn it. All right. Three, two, one. All right. They may have to listen

to it on the pirate radio edit, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna listen

to it before we go into your story time.

He was a trickster a good for nothing brick by

the power that he held inside his family was big

horse run by Greek Let their power be the

fake inventions of the man who lives eternally

as it tutored to give you all a word on how you can

be rich by using trick and frauds as good fun oh,

thanks to Sivan above his can grow

cause he's a man of wealth so y'all have bad choices

Adore him. Zevon red for all sandwiches

Nothing will go wrong cause this man is a

genius. Don't doubt them, Sivan. Watch those who

you know asleep make them meet those trucks that make them

love the medium.

No persons living or dead are referenced in any way. Any similarities

are because your reality's warping to become as awful as the fictions

depicted on this show. Well, while you're

out there trying to unpack that self deprecating humor, I would advise you

to not do that. Just go ahead and enjoy the song.

I remember you from skid Row. And kick the out of this week and

make it your. All right, we're not gonna actually have to listen to that because

it's a love ballad and we got a break anyway, so we're going to stop

it here. Yeah, yeah, they'll have to listen to it, but you won't have

to listen to it. But they will also have

to listen. To this recording stopped.
