In other news, I’m amazed that we keep referring to the clearly-reptilian flying things as “the birds”, but the obvious turtle is only called “the monster”. #monsterdon

LOL they can't attack the kaiju, they can only defend?

So, we've got some political commentary/classic yucks about Japanese bureaucracy as well. At least, I'm assuming that might be a bit of a jibe at the constitutional limitations on the actions of the JSDF in real life.

A couple of weeks ago I said it’ll be really funny if they put googly eyes on Godzilla… it looks like they put googly eyes on some of those birds… and it’s not really very funny. #Monsterdon

When you need petrol to maybe blow up a practical effects monster, turn to the Shell Corporation.

Once again, kaiju movie score is top notch

If I ruled Hollywood, I'd make a 1/100 rule, where for every $100 you spend on VFX for a movie, you have to spend at least $1 on producing the soundtrack
