Godzillavangelists

Godzilla and Evangelion have a mutual love affair going back decades in Japanese pop culture history. With Ryan having recently finished the original series, it's a good time to look back on these twin titans and the mother they share. Along for the ride is recurring guest and anime boy Matthew Charles! Look forward to our upcoming War of the Gargantuas episode!

Godzilla's woefully cheap 70s days hit a new high (or low) with the infamous Godzilla vs. Gigan! Also known as Godzilla on Monster Island, this 2v2 beat-em-up can challenge even the most devoted Godzillavangelist. Fortunately, special guest SoSezJarvis joins forces with Ryan, Joanna, and Sam to talk space cockroaches, kaiju speech, robotic chickens, and more. Is this a fun comic book battle or just a sad chapter for the Big G? Next time will hopefully be our War of the Gargantuas episode, although there is a slight chance of a last-minute switch-up.  Godzillavangelists is a satirical, critical work not affiliated or endorsed by Toho, Legendary Pictures, or anyone behind the Godzilla series.

It's time. We step up to the plate with one of the most divisive and scorned Godzilla movies: Godzilla's Revenge AKA All Monsters Attack. Is it a creative exercise for a director, a wonderful children's film, or a cheapo movie full of holes? Or...all three? Joining us again is Mackenzie Marlowe, who has plenty of expertise working with hated Godzilla movies. Nothing goes overlooked, from preferred Minya voices to the time-worn stereotypes of kids' movies.  Next, keep your eyes out for our Godzilla vs. Gigan episode! It's one of the cheapest series entries but also a very beloved one.

It's here at last! The Godzillavangelists finally get to see Godzilla vs. Kong, and they sure do have a lot to say. They've got some strong opinions about this rematch for the ages, including whether big monke can win when he's got the big stick in his hands. No guests, no fuss- we've got the hot takes on everything from villain names to Godzilla's dopey little head. Plus, there's a special surprise for longtime fans of the show!

It's another King Kong double whammy here at Godzillavangelists! This time Kat Belinfante joins us to deal with the much maligned 1976 version of King Kong, as well as the very recent entry that introduced the big ape to the Legendary Monsterverse. From the frustrating awfulness of the name "Dwan" to debating whether studio execs would let John C. Reilly headline a movie, there's plenty to discuss. Plus, witness the perfection of the Godzillavangelists' first "straight flush" of ratings. We're very excited to cover the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong! Look out for the episode less than a week after the movie's US debut.  Godzillavangelists is a satirical, critical work not affiliated or endorsed by Toho, Legendary Pictures, or anyone behind the Godzilla series.

The Jedivangelists discussion gets surprisingly deep and film-geeky as we talk about Return of the Jedi and the Original Trilogy as a whole. There's deeper issues here than Ewoks, folks. Look forward to our discussion of more King Kong movies this month, and our upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong episode!

We're back, with a double feature to boot! The gang is talking about the original 1933 King Kong, as well as Toho's wacky King Kong Escapes.  The focus is on the big ape rather than the Big G for a couple months, but worry not. We've got the perfect blend of good old-fashioned moviemaking, bad dubbing, badly-behaved American actors, and snapping dinosaur jaws in half.  More King Kong movies are coming, leading up to the long-awaited premiere of Kong vs. Godzilla!

With more than 3 years of experience talking about giant monsters, invading aliens, and ridiculous plot holes, the Godzillavangelists are taking things back to basics. Fan favorite Destroy All Monsters is at the center of the conversation, and there's no special guests to get in the way of a nice evening. Or are there? More Godzillavangelists to come soon, including a Jedivangelists on Return of the Jedi.  Godzillavangelists is a satirical, critical work not affiliated or endorsed by Toho, Legendary Pictures, or anyone behind the Godzilla series.

It's a classic 60s throwback double feature as the Godzillavangelists go into overtime. This time they talk about Godzilla vs. Monster Zero (AKA Invasion of Astro-Monster) and Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster (AKA Ebirah, Horror of the Deep). It's title overload over here. Superfan Todd G. Levin is back to talk monsters, and boy is there a lot to chew on. One minute the inventor of a supersonic r*pe whistle is falling through a trapdoor, the next, a big shrimp is horrifically spearing innocent villagers. How will the Godzillavangelists survive? We have a special third anniversary show coming up, focused on that fan favorite Destroy All Monsters!

The Jedivangelists take time to enjoy that holy grail of Star Wars- The Empire Strikes Back! It's all one big love fest until we make fun of Threepio and hurt Sam's feelings. We also talk way too long about the beloved tabletop game Star Wars: Epic Duels. A long-lost episode should finally be released around the end of the month! Our Return of the Jedi minisode shouldn't be far behind either.

The Godzillavangelists emerge during this dark and smoggy time to talk about Godzilla vs. The Smog Monster AKA Godzilla vs. Hedorah. Funnily enough, times are bad enough that we almost cherish the idea of being dissolved by Hedorah's acid. We are joined by special guest EdAtlin to talk Hedorah's taste in music, eye laser placement, and parties that start in black and white until someone plays music. You might even get to hear a special rare dub of the movie by Ed's pal Tutu. The Monster Zero/Sea Monster episode should finally be coming out next month thanks to our new editor!

What better treatment for this dark time than talking about giant monsters and card games? Ryan and returning guest Will talk about the new Godzilla/MTG crossover in nerdy detail as the first baby steps of the Godzillavangelists' return. Another minisode with Sam and Joanna is coming very soon, and a new real episode is on the way after that!

The Godzillavangelists really stick their neck out this time, when they go to bat against the fandom and defend Son of Godzilla! Or at least, Ryan does, while Sam has a love affair with a striped shed and Joanna questions Godzilla's parenting techniques. Ryan's own sister Lauren visits the podcast to share some childhood memories and organize a slash-and-burn offense to protect Minya's honor. If you wanted to know more about the weirdo Sargent household, you'll get your chance on this ep. Next episode is ACTUALLY a double feature of Godzilla vs. Monster Zero and Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster! How it got mixed up is a complicated and boring story.

For years, Godzilla '98 has been buried by Ryan, hoping never that the Godzillavangelists would have to speak its cursed name. But when G98 arises from its tomb, our holy duty is to watch and mock its wacky ass.  Mackenzie Marlowe joins the Godzillavangelists to marvel at one of the greatest bad movies of all time. Meet lovable characters such as the sexless worm scientist, the pathetic incompetent journalist, and the goofy coffee-hunting Frenchman! And of course, born-pregnant, fish-gobbling, fast-running GINO. Next episode is a double feature of Godzilla vs. Monster Zero and Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster! Lots of '60s goodness incoming!

After five years of waiting, expectation, worries, and stupid online arguments, Godzilla: King of the Monsters is finally here! Is it a worthy addition to the Godzillvangelist movement? You'll have to listen to find out! Plus, we talk global warming, Bear McCreary's score, and what Ryan may or may not whisper in Sam's ear every night.  Next episode, we really, truly, actually, finally cover Godzilla 1998! (We've already recorded it.)

Legendary's MonsterVerse has become the heart of the fandom, but it's also a world apart from classic Godzilla. Watch in horror as this box office titans turns the Godzillavangelists world upside down! Sam defends the movie! Ryan complains about everything! What in Godzilla's name is happening? Game artist and designer Marcus Meler joins them and Joanna to guide their hand through this new CGI-filled world. PS: We'll slowly be changing the titling of all our episodes, if you're wondering what happened. It just makes sure casual listeners see our movie topic first.  Next episode will cover the brand new movie and should be out by June 7! After that, Godzilla 1998 will finally see the light!

When Netflix released the Godzilla anime trilogy, the response was horrendous. But has time been kind to these unusual entries in G-history? Well... no. But that one scene where Ghidorah cuts somebody's head off is pretty cool! Ryan, Sam, and Joanna roll up their sleeves and finish off the Godzilla anime trilogy. Greg Jones is also there to clean up our mess. But you know, not in a gross way. Next episode's content should be Godzilla (1998)! Argh! Slight chance that Godzilla (2014) comes first though.

Although cast apart from coast to coast, nothing can halt the might of the Godzillavangelists! In anticipation of their next big episode, Ryan, Joanna, and Sam reunite to recap their adventure in Godzillavangelizing so far. There's lots of embarrassing dubbing in there.
