Godzilla Vs Week: Godzilla Vs Mechagodzilla

Back again monster fans for Day 4 of Godzilla Vs Week.  We clearly have not witnessed enough devastation and radiation so let's find some worthy contenders.  In the red corner, 60 to almost 70 feet tall, the reigning champion of Japan weigh in at 30,000 tons, blechs atomic flame and can really whip a tail...  Godzilla!!!   And our challenger, a mass of titanium diamond coated alloy, bristling with laz weapons, flamethrower and missle barrage, tallying at 40,000 tons himself.  Mechagodzilla!   Okay folks let's get ready to rummmmmmmmbbbbbbbbblllllllleeeeeee!!!!!    This is Godzilla Vs Mechagodzilla.

One shall stand...  One shall fall.

Professor Hideto Miyaajima: What's this? Who are you?
Alien Supreme Leader Kuronuma: Commander for conquest of Spoiler, from the third planet of the black hole, outer space.


Just when you thought all of Japan could not have enough damage from the continuous monster royale rumbles, they get aliens.   Yup invaders from space!   Strange goings on are occurring in Okinawa. A priestess claims horrible visions of a city being leveled and destroyed by a giant monster.  No kidding.  In a nearby series of caverns spelunker Masahiko Shimizu (Kazuya Aoyama of Ryusei Ningen Zone, Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla and Tokyo-wan enjo) brings it to Professor Miyura's successor Professor Miyajima (Akihiko Hirata of Mothra, Girl of Dark, Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster, Ultraman, Godzilla Versus the Sea Monster and Son of Godzilla) a man's PHDs range from Paleontology, physics, reverse engineering...  oh the hell with it, he is Asian Tony Stark without the suit and swarm.  

No sooner do we fade out from that scene a familiar creature raises from the depths of Mt. Fuji and starts smashing the countryside, yes Godzilla seems to have spun back to his rampage days rather than the peaceful existence he has had with humans for some time now.  Out of nowhere Anguirus (a mutated dinosaur resembling an ankylosaurus only much larger. Godzilla's first foe and now ally) appears thought to be long lost in a chasm he and Rodan fell during the Ghidorah incident.    Anguirus proceeds to throw down with "Godzilla" only to get bashed about and seriously injured.  Before Anguirus passes out from pain, he sees the wounds he made in Godzilla and spies a gleam of metal where muscle and blood should be.  

Stay on target!!

Faux Godzilla proceeds to reign fire and anguish on the land when a second Godzilla appears and puts the hurt on the first.  Our challenger is of course the original and is pissed at the copy.  While these two start flogging each other, a contingent of military men acquired the Professor, the spelunker and the professor's daughter.  During the struggle with the spelunker his cheesy mask is torn to reveal an ape-like visage under the mask.  Our horrible soldiers are revealed to be Simians from the third planet from the black hole.   Yeah, even I could not have made up invading Apes from another world.  I guess it could have been the Cromagnons from Sliders dimension swapping.  Bleh.

Establishing a base under Okinawa the Simians do not seem that technologically advanced, with the exception of Mechagodzilla their weapons are chemically ignited projectiles and not some beam weapon.   With Interpol hot on the trail it is only a matter of time they will catch the Simians red butted... er red handed.
With the descendants of Azumi made to be the caretakers of YET ANOTHER slumbering Kaiju, Shisa (or Ceasar to the round eyed devils is based on a mythological creature a cross between dog and lion) raises the creature from the deep sleeps to aid Godzilla in his time of need.

Okay, just a few comments to make on our film.   This film was to honor the 20th Anniversary of Godzilla.  Funny thing is in the German release of the film they kept referring Mechagodzilla as King Kong.  Guess Mechagodzilla sounded too silly, menacing or possibly lost in translation.    The cavern around Okinawa is revered as a tourist attraction and apparently more than a few films including Ultraman and Fugitive Alien were shot there.  He trieeeeedd to kill me with a forklift!  Olay!

Lightning Bolt!  50 mega damage!!!
