What's that sound? It can't be... but it is! Yes, Godzilla is back, and someone must have soaked him in vinegar and maple syrup for a couple days because he is BIGGER THAN BEFORE here in the Heisei era! Your hosts dig into the first Godzilla movie released in major US theaters since '54, and despite some pretty wild differences, it's a heck of a flick! Moose gives a brief synopsis of the revamped Halloween film series continuity, Quark reveals she's never seen Ducktales, and we all thank Raymond Burr for taking a very important stand. Not even a locked metal shutter can stop this train, folks!
