- 14:17, 1 May 2018 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Rampage (My Thoughts: Rampage I was in a unique position going into this movie: I normally hate movies based on video games, as they are so rarely done well (we have the entirety of the 90’s and 2000’s as proof of that), but at the same time... it’s a mo...)
- 01:51, 21 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Pulgasari (film) (My Thoughts: Pulgasari It really is hard to judge this film. On one hand, it is a decent flick, but on the other, it's production history is nothing short of disgusting. That being said, let's take a moment to look at this film as just that, a film, w...)
- 06:17, 12 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gamera vs. Guiron (My Thoughts: Gamera vs. Guiron There's not really much that can be said about this film that hasn't already been said about its predecessors. Though entertaining in an over-the-top fashion, "Gamera vs Guiron" seems to be where the repetitive Showa-era...)
- 01:46, 11 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gamera vs. Viras (My Thoughts: Gamera vs. Viras Though entertaining in some respects, I tend to label this as one of the weaker installments in the original series. The biggest aggravation this flick has to offer is the subpar monster action. While Gamera's battles wi...)
- 20:17, 10 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gamera vs. Gyaos (My Thoughts: Gamera vs Gyaos While "Gamera vs. Barugon" is my favorite film in the Showa Gamera series, "Gamera vs. Gyaos" comes in at a close second. The main appeal this film has is its abundance of monster action: We get plenty of time with the ne...)
- 19:21, 9 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gamera vs. Barugon (My Thoughts: Gamera vs. Barugon Depending on your preference for a darker, more serious kaiju movie versus a goofy, campy one, this film could be considered one of the better installments in the original Gamera series or one of the weaker ones. Pers...)
- 14:35, 9 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gamera (1965 film) (My Thoughts: Gamera Overall, a decent first attempt at a daikaiju flick. While the original Gamera didn't have the menacing presence Godzilla had in his early Showa Era (and post-Showa), the monster action in this flick is still top notch. The human...)
- 13:52, 9 September 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (My Thoughts: The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms Though not perfect, there's no denying this film's significance in the history of giant monster movies. Obviously, the main star of the movie is the Rhedosaurus brought to life by Ray Harryhausen, whose ski...)
- 14:51, 28 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong (1932 novelization) (That book cover is AWESOME!)
- 06:53, 28 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong (2005 film) (My Thoughts: King Kong (2005) I'm gonna just come out and say it: THIS is easily my favorite King Kong movie. I know, preferring a remake over the original... Sci-Fi Sacrilege, right? As far as effects, the CGI, model work and action scenes are VERY...)
- 03:02, 19 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong (1976 film) (My Thoughts: King Kong (1976) Though this film is often looked down upon, I think too much talent and effort went into it to call it a bad movie. True, it doesn't live up to the grandeur of the original film, but after all these years I think it's bee...)
- 06:48, 18 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong Escapes (My Thoughts: King Kong Escapes Though hardly the classic that is the original, "King Kong Escapes" is still a pretty fun movie. I never watched the show this movie is based on, so I have no clue how faithful it is to its source material, but the plo...)
- 04:32, 17 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Son of Kong (My Thoughts: Son of Kong Though not even remotely in the same league as its predecessor, this is still very much an underrated film. The stop motion is a bit choppy compared to the first film, but given the time and budget constraints O'Brian and c...)
- 03:35, 17 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong (1933 film) (My Thoughts: King Kong (1933) To say this film is a masterpiece is an understatement. Though "crude" by today's CGI-infested standards, the stop-motion and model work by Willis O'Brian and the production team is nonetheless amazing, and in some ways...)
- 04:47, 14 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Demeking, the Sea Monster (My Thoughts: Demeking, the Sea Monster As far as kaiju films go, Demeking the Sea Monster (from SPAAAAAACE :P) is a strange one. The first third of the movie really strikes me as odd: It's people doing... stuff. Just... stuff; exercising, riding bikes...)
- 04:03, 14 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on 10 Cloverfield Lane (My Thoughts: 10 Cloverfield Lane I have mixed feelings about this flick. On one hand, I'm disappointed that the film doesn't follow up on the original movie, but on the other, it's a genuinely good movie in its own right. The positive first: The main...)
- 05:16, 12 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Kong: Skull Island (My Thoughts: Kong: Skull Island Though not perfect, in a number of ways this film is an improvement over "Godzilla (2014)". Perhaps the biggest advantage this movie has over its Monsterverse predecessor is its more varied and likable human cast. Whi...)
- 04:03, 12 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla (2014 film) (My Thoughts: Godzilla 2014 It's kinda hard for me to fairly rank this film. It was the first Godzilla movie I ever saw in theaters, and I initially found it to be an amazing experience. But repeated viewings and comparing it to previous films in the s...)
- 04:29, 11 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla: Final Wars (My Thoughts: Godzilla: Final Wars Wow. This is probably the most flat-out insane installment in the series since "Godzilla vs Hedorah". The tone and themes of the film are nuts: You have kaiju battles, mutants, aliens, Minilla (ugh...), bouncing-off-...)
- 03:47, 11 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. (My Thoughts: Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. I tend to favor this film over its predecessor. Expanding on the plot of the last movie, it ups the ante by throwing Mothra and her larvae into the mix, bringing some additional monster star power. I really love th...)
- 02:46, 11 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla (My Thoughts: Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla Though not quite on par with "Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla II" this is still an interesting retelling of the Godzilla/Mechagodzilla rivalry, and a decent entry in the series. Mechagodzilla's new design is a gr...)
- 20:58, 9 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Kong On The Planet Of The Apes (It was only a matter of time before this happened; the last couple of years have seen Planet of the Apes crossovers with Tarzan, Star Trek, and even Green Lantern. Honestly, I'm a little surprised this didn't happen sooner.)
- 02:23, 8 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Haruo Nakajima (To my knowledge, he's the only actor to have portrayed both Godzilla AND King Kong. R.I.P. Haruo. You helped bring some of the most beloved movie monsters to life.)
- 02:08, 6 August 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Colossal (My Thoughts: Colossal For what it is, this is actually a decent film. It has humor, drama, emotion, and of course, giant monsters. The plot of an alcoholic woman unwittingly in control of a giant monster in another country is pretty inventive, the c...)
- 00:29, 17 July 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Kong: The Animated Series (My Thoughts: Kong: The Animated Series Though an obvious attempt to cash in on the popularity of Godzilla: The Series, this show was actually one of the better series to come out of the early 2000's. The characters and action scenes were pretty solid,...)
- 18:54, 13 July 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Servum (So it's a winged, reptilian monster with a vague genetic relation to Godzilla... Godzooky, is that you?)
- 13:00, 13 July 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Ghidorah ("The devil has three heads..." https://mobile.twitter.com/kongskullisland/status/885166877147660288/video/1)
- 15:43, 14 June 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla in Hell (My Thoughts: Godzilla in Hell An interesting concept to be sure, but like Cataclysm I feel Godzilla in Hell didn't quite reach its full potential. For one, I would've liked to see Goji encounter more situations and characters synonymous with hell, but...)
- 13:37, 14 June 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Kong: Skull Island (Well, in the US at least, my theory is that Godzilla is often looked down on as "kid stuff", a view that is likely a holdover from the days when the Big G's only real exposure to Western audiences was through the theatrical runs - and later tv airings...)
- 12:02, 8 June 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla: King of the Monsters (Any word on the plot?)

- 04:42, 29 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gappa (film) (My Thoughts: Gappa A good and easy-to-find kaiju flick. The design of the Gappas is a bit of a mixed bag: the combination of bird and reptilian traits is cool, but the wings could use work. The rampage scenes, though, are where this movie shines, so...)
- 03:01, 29 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on The Return of Godzilla (Manga) (My Thoughts: The Return of Godzilla (Manga) Much like the film on which it's based, the story is simple, but well-executed. Godzilla's return is presented with an almost apocalyptic vibe, reestablishing him as a destructive force of nature as opposed...)
- 05:48, 28 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on The Last Dinosaur (My Thoughts: The Ladt Dinosaur Oh, how I love this movie. One of my favorite "cheesy" dino flicks. I used to watch this one back-to-back with "Planet of Dinosaurs" when I was a kid. The effects and costumes are... well, bad, but I've seen worse. I li...)
- 05:36, 28 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong Lives (My Thoughts: King Kong Lives Definantly not the high point of old Kong's career. Let's start with the acting. This is some of the most phoned in, least inspired acting I've ever seen. Not one character in this movie left an impact on me beyond generi...)
- 01:59, 27 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Agon: Atomic Dragon (My Thoughts: Agon Agon is a bit lackluster, but enjoyable in its own right. As far as the suit and effects are concerned, though somewhat inferior to the Toho films of the time, they're decent enough for a TV series from the 60's. Agon's design is co...)
- 05:39, 25 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Yongary, Monster from the Deep (My Thoughts: Yongary: Monster from the Deep An uneven, but enjoyable kaiju flick. As far as the suit, miniatures and special effects are concerned, they're easily on par with the Toho films of the time. The Yongary suit has your typical Godzilla body...)
- 05:32, 25 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Reptilian (film) (My Thoughts: Reptilian Oh, how does one describe "Reptilian"? The acting? Eh... No worse than your typical Sy-Fy/Asylum flick. The characters? They're likable in that poorly-acted-B-movie-character sort of way. The story? It's your typical kaiju-und...)
- 02:23, 25 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gorgo (film) (Yup. Or rather I have the collected editions. Got the hardcover Gorgo and Konga "Ditko Monsters" collections from IDW, and a paperback collection of the Reptilicus comics. Weird thing though; the Reptilicus collection was retitled "Scarysaurus the Scar...)
- 18:35, 21 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on King Kong Skull Island (Huh. Didn't see this coming. Having read the original book (and the comic adaptation) I'm interested in seeing where this goes. The source material gives it serious potential. It'd be nice to have a tv series that revolves around Kong that could actual...)
- 13:07, 11 April 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on MonsterVerse (I wonder if Legendary has any plans for the Monsterverse beyond Godzilla vs Kong. I mean, I'm not demanding facts or confirmation at this point, and I understand them just focusing on the two primary characters in this series for now. I just wonder whe...)
- 03:24, 27 March 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Gorgo (film) (My Thoughts: Gorgo One of the best kaiju films to come from outside Japan. The costumes and miniatures are very well done for an early 60's creature feature. I especially love Mama Gorgo's rampage through the city (keeping track of the monsters' name...)
- 03:02, 27 March 2017 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack (My Thoughts: GMK By FAR the best installment in the Millennium series, and one of the best entries in the series as a whole. GMK is among those films that works on almost all fronts: The human characters are likable and relatable, the plot is interest...)
- 02:34, 26 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla: Resurgence (... wut?)

- 06:45, 19 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla: Resurgence (My Thoughts: Shin Godzilla Since this film has concluded both its Japanese and American theatrical releases, I'll go ahead and comment, but just in case: '''SPOILERS!!!''' I really wanted to like this film. I was hoping it would be the giant epic o...)
- 17:30, 18 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. Megaguirus (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs Megaguirus I tend to label this as the weakest of the Millennium series, though it's not without its charm. The main problem I have with the film is it moves along at a somewhat sluggish pace when the kaiju aren't around; sev...)
- 16:34, 17 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Attack on Titan (2015 film) (Just watched Part One, and so far I'm fairly impressed. I'll reserve my full judgement until I see Part Two, though.)
- 16:29, 17 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla (2017 film) (Any clue on whether this will be a continuation of Shin Godzilla, or is this the beginning of a Millennium-type anthology?)
- 04:25, 13 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla 2000: Millennium (My Thoughts: Godzilla 2000 Though a bit uneven, this movie is still surprisingly well done considering the limited amount of time Toho had to make it. Like many of the Heisei films, the human characters are likable in their own ways, and their strugg...)

- 04:43, 12 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla (1998 film) (My Thoughts: Godzilla 1998 I know it's become almost mandatory for Godzilla fans to hate this movie, but I've never been able to do that... not completely, anyway. Maybe it's because I was young when this came out, and I didn't see it as the hardcore...)
- 01:04, 12 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs Destroyah Hands down one of the best (if not THE best) installments in the second series. This is one of those Godzilla movies where the kaiju action takes a back seat to the human drama, so some viewers may find it a bit slo...)
- 03:41, 11 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs SpaceGodzilla An uneven, but awesome installment in the series. The movie is rather light on the plot: A space monster appears and proceeds to attack the earth. There's a subplot of G-Force using a machine to take control of...)
- 03:24, 10 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla 2 (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla II Easily one of the best installments in the second series. The human characters are likable in their own ways, and the concept of creating Mechagodzilla as an anti-Godzilla weapon was a slick move, insuring t...)
- 02:06, 10 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. Mothra (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs Mothra While entertaining in its own way, I tend to label this film as the weakest of the second series. The overall message of the film is a good one, but given the time this film came out, when moviegoers everywhere were be...)
- 17:28, 7 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs King Ghidorah This film, while among the better installments in the second series, a bit of a mixed bag. The plot is both refreshing and tired at the same time. While aliens aren't the bad guys (instead deceptive time travel...)
- 05:08, 6 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. Biollante (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs Biollante An uneven, but still woefully underrated film. Godzilla vs Biollante is a refreshing change from the typical Godzilla plot. Instead of alien invasions or monsters from space, we get a more thoughtful story concernin...)
- 05:05, 5 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on The Return of Godzilla (My Thoughts: The Return of Godzilla After so many years of dormancy, Godzilla's return to the big screen is a bit uneven, but satisfying overall. The dark, grim tone was a good call and returns Godzilla to his roots as an unstoppable force of nature...)
- 04:11, 5 October 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Terror of MechaGodzilla (My Thoughts: Terror of Mechagodzilla A bit of a mixed bag for Godzilla's first cinematic send off, but this film is still a cut above most from the late Showa series. The plot is a direct continuation of the last film, so there isn't much new materi...)

- 01:48, 26 September 2016 Toa Hydros talk contribs posted a new comment on Godzilla vs. Gigan (My Thoughts: Godzilla vs Gigan After Godzilla's Revenge, I tend to view this as the weakest of the series.

Whether you like it or not, no one can deny it is the single most... bizarre... flick in the series. The human characters aren't that m...)
