| Premise: If there's one thing the government always needs, it's more fucking awsome firepower. After their first attempt at building a weapon to combat Godzilla, the areal vehicle Garuda, is deemed inadequate, scientists recover the remains of Mecha-King Ghidorah, the monster cyborg from the future. Japan's new Self Defense Force section, G-Force, studies it to the point that they can reconstruct it into the ultimate weapon... Mechagodzilla! Why all the other nations don't object to Japan having their own giant metal monster, I have no fucking clue. Anywho, an expedition at Adona Island find a next that contained two eggs. One has hatched, the other still slumbers. Dreaming about making the world's largest hardboiled egg (somebody call Guiness), the scientists naturally take it into custody. However, the occupant of the hatched egg, a giant mutated Pteranodon named Rodan, appears and sees a bunch of pesky humans stealing his baby brother. Rodan attempts to play "bestest big brother ever" (yet, you know he's going to give his sibling a noogie once he hatches) and tries to save the day, but is interupted from his retrieval by Godzilla. Surfacing from the ocean, Godzilla and Rodan lock into a brutal battle, which Godzilla eventually ends up the victor of. However in the meantime, the scientists have escaped, dreaming of their well deserved lunch they're going with whip this egg into. But, before that happens, the egg hatches. Much to the surprise of the team who stole it from it's nest...er, I mean studied it in the interest of science, the egg is not that of a Pteranodon, but a small baby Godzillasaur. Dubbing him the very original name of Baby, the newborn adopts a scientist named Azusa as his mother. Awww. But the heart warming Full House moment is not to last, for Godzilla is rampaging Japan in search of Baby. The time has come to unleash Mechagodzilla. After a long and tedious sequence of closeups featuring every possible angle of the fucking robot, Mechagodzilla is launched into battle with the mighty King of the Monsters. While Mechagodzilla proves effective at first, one of it's weapons backfires and knocks it out. Confused as to what happened to his opponant, Godzilla just walks away and starts playing in the streets again. Eventually, like all frustrated people who have lost something, he searches for two minutes and gives up. It's hopeless! But G-Force has been studying Baby in the meantime, and discover that he has a second brain shoved up his ass that controls his lower body functions. G-Force decides to use this discovery to their advantage. By bringing psychic hottie and Heisei Godzilla series regular Miki Saegusa, they convince her to use her psychic link with Godzilla to lock in on the second brain so Mechagodzilla can target it and destroy it, leaving Godzilla crippled and unable to walk. All this and more! G-Force has taken Baby into custody in order to use him as a decoy to lure Godzilla into their trap, something both Azusa and Miki object to strongly. G-Force doesn't listen to their whining, because they see it more as an asset instead of a pet (you have to admit, even though having your own Dinosaur would make for the greatest guard dog ever, imagine the dog house you'd have to build!). Sensing Baby's need for help, Rodan mutates even more heavily and is now equiped with a heat beam of his own (New and Improved! While supplies last!). Rodan flies into Japan to save Baby, only to wind up squaring off with both Mechagodzilla and Garuda, and becomes mortally wounded in the process. Not long after Godzilla arises, falling for G-Force's trap. Mechagodzilla and Garuda combine into the Kaiju-Megazord...er, I mean Super Mechagodzilla, and the final battle begins. Could this be the end for Godzilla? Next Page (Review) Previous Page |
