Hama Sandwich

I just found out that November 16th is National Fast Food Day. Too bad these Godzilla burgers weren't offered again. (Click for some pics from a Godzilla -1 promo.)

Here are a few ads I've scammed featuring Godzilla chowing down on Fast Food.



Someone overdid it.


A healthier choice.

This one is fairly recent, from Texas. Looks messy.


Speaking of Tacos, I ate at a local joint last night. Pretty tasty!

Unless you have a death wish, don't try the raw jalapeƱo, the pickled ones are fine.We met the guy who grows them in the pub downstairs and they're grown in my old stomping grounds of Watari.


I'll have to check this place out again. Linda

I'm pleased to announce that I completed my new Godzilla Gatcha set. The rare one is Baragon.



We also have my personal favourite from this set, the rarely represented Gorosaurus.*


Also a Radon from '64.

And Gojira himself from 1968.

*Gorosaurus just happens to show up in one of the movies I watched today. 


It is also starring birthday girl Mie Hama who is a spry 81-year old. Here she is at 80.


I also saw her in the last half of You Only Live Twice (1967). Hopefully I'll get to see it in its entirety when the marathon repeats itself. After Kong, she was in a romantic comedy called Kitchen (1989) but it wasn't very good. I saw her as a princess in Samurai Pirate (1963) or The Lost World of Sinbad. Then she was in two spy comedy thrillers from 1965, 100 Shot, 100 Killed and International Secret Police: Key of Keys. I had a hard time distinguishing these. Another movie similar to Samurai Pirate (a lot of the same cast) was Adventure in Kigan Castle (1966). Showing now is a musical called You Can Succeed, Too (1964). I'm going now watch it instead of blogging further.

ps. Yesterday I told the punchline to a joke I hadn't fully perfected yet. Here goes.

How did the cannibal feel after he consumed the second woman? Gladiator 2!

Tremors Rumours.

Thanks to Daikaiju TeeVee, I get to watch lots of subtitled (and occasionally dubbed) Kaiju action. (Here's a link to a DKU: Live Feed. Tonight it was Frankenstein vs. Baragon (aka. Frankenstein Conquers the World) which, much to my surprise, I had never seen before.


It's pretty good, with a great score by Akira Ifukube and terrific acting by the main leads and monsters. This version has the weird alternative ending with a giant octopus showing up out of nowhere and battling Frankie. Weird indeed.


Baragon is a subterranean reptile Kaiju that gets around underground by digging at high speed.



Ya know what also digs at high speeds and travels underground? The Graboids, that's what!

I'm overdo for a rewatch of Tremors, I haven't seen any subterranean action since Shrieker Island. What I do have are a few Gatcha capsules of the Graboids and their relatives.










I found a pic I took of them all together in all their incarnations.


Aren't they cute? I'll try and dig up my Tremors socks. They're around here somewhere.

Speaking of cute, I have a little more pumpkin action. I wish these kids would draw more spooky scenarios, I'm sick of these. Even though some are gourdgeous.




Delightfully taken aback that three different kids used a Peanuts character in their great Pumpkin designs.




For a blogger with some cutesy links, try Me and You Too or October Branches. 

I'm going to try and go to bed early for a change! Ciao for now...
