Rebirth of Mothra (Mosura)

Godzilla and Friends Marathon: 37 of 46 I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I can't dislike anything with Mothra in it. This was too cute and too much fun to care that it's probably the Godzilla franchise's version of The Ewok Adventure. An aging Mothra…

KAIJULY: GODS AND MONSTERS Maybe I would have liked this one more as a child. It was such a bizarre transition from a rather adult sci-fi movie to a kids film featuring a magic witch or something that goes around making hand gestures and some screeching evil laughs like…

“Who are you little people?” Seal of Elias A Toho public service announcement to stop deforestation and children, learn to get along with your troublesome siblings! Definitely a film for those who love Mothra! There’s Mothra Mother (the OG, now old and alone), Mothra…

Enter Mothra. Centre stage. Queen of the monsters, not a bit monstrous. Atop her egg which she nurses. Death and rebirth is forever her legacy. Like an opening to a Mothra musical, a ceremony begins as the twin fairies sing in her honour, always a song summons her highness.…
