atsa lotta toots.
finished watching Mothra
Mothra's screech sounded suspiciously similar to the baby Metroid's cry in Super Metroid. I am convinced the latter directly sampled the movie.
Some of the best dioramas I've yet seen in a kaiju movie. That was amazing. Though I wonder about the feelings of the people who put all that hard work into them, only to see them smashed to pieces.
My new favourite of all the old kaiju movies I've watched so far.
