Godzillavangelists

Well, this is it. Goodbye- at least for now! It’s another properly super-sized episode to send off the series as-is, with some of our favorite clips, guests, and behind-the-scenes stories popping up. It all concludes in a big gooey reminiscence on how life and Godzilla have changed since we started the show, and how we all feel about the big G now. You might call this the lab results to the Godzillavangelists hypothesis! And of course… no upcoming episode. But we’d still love to hear from you anytime, and keep spreading the word of Godzilla!

It's the final (and perhaps finest?) Godzilla film to date: Minus One. In this long-awaited episode the Godzillavangelists flit back to postwar Japan to spread the word of one last G-flick.
