    Just a sweet little movie about two good guy friends raising a kid and building a gay robot together! This should be queer canon.

    A miraculous night seeing this on a battered, faded 35mm print at the beautiful Mahoning Drive-In - the kick-off to a weekend of kaiju eiga. My heart sang as I watched the silliest-looking Godzilla in the franchise's history do his Muhammad Ali moves on the big screen. I…
