I always root for the monster. ~ J. R. Ward Last week, we watched the Son of Godzilla. It was a bit silly even by monster movie standards. It wasn't one of my favorite. Fortunately, this week's movie was better. Destroy all Monster was a monster filled cast! Godzilla, the Son of Godzilla, Mothra,…Read more Godzilla Double Feature

Space Godzilla and the Rowbutts
"He looks mad." quote for Godzilla Along with Cheep and Cheerful, Friday night is Godzilla movie night. Last week we took a detour to watch Rodan. This week it's Invasion of Astro-Monster. This movie was made during the heart of the Space Race in the '60's. It seems only natural there would be a space…Read more Space Godzilla and the Rowbutts
The Early Bird Catches the Dragonfly Larvae
We make our own monsters, then fear them for what they show us about ourselves. ~ Mike Carey Two months ago, the British Hubby and I started watching the Godzilla movies.

Celebrating Life
Don't let yesterday take up too much of today. ~ Will Rogers I'm back to celebrating life on both Friday and Sunday nights. I would like to say I had a fantastic weekend, but the day job kept me pretty busy both days. I did manage to make it to my LYS twice! Yesterday, the…Read more Celebrating Life
Team Work Saves the Day
I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took any excuse. ~ Florence Nightingale Last week we got off track with our Godzilla movies. We should have watched Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster. This movie was produced in 1964 and was the first Godzilla movie in color. It's the fifth movie in the Godzilla anthology. The…Read more Team Work Saves the Day
Godzilla Paraphernalia
The only thing scarier than Godzilla is Godzilla's lawyers. ~ Paul Watson Friday night is Godzilla movie night.

Dances with Mothra
He that plants trees loves others besides himself. ~Thomas Fuller Friday night has become Godzilla movie night at our house. The next movie on our list was Mothra vs. Godzilla.

King Kong vs. Godzilla
The cold ain't the weather. That's death approaching. ~ 30 Days of Night Friday night is movie night for the British Hubby and I.

It's never really addressed how King Kong gets back…Read more King Kong vs. Godzilla
Beauty and the Beast
"Oh no, it wasn't the airplanes. It was beauty that killed the beast." ~ Quote from King Kong the 8th Wonder of the World. Friday night has become Godzilla movie night at our house. This weekend we had a social engagement Friday night (shocking, I know). We postponed Godzilla to Saturday. Godzilla vs. King Kong was…Read more Beauty and the Beast
Bright Lights, Big City
Even big lizards aren't immune to shiny baubles. Last Friday, the British Hubby and I watched the first Godzilla movie in honor of Friday the 13th. We realized neither one of us had seen every Godzilla flick. We've declared Friday night is Godzilla movie night until we've watched everything Godzilla themed. This is going to…Read more Bright Lights, Big City
