they have a musicaaaaaaaaaaal!

CAN WE COLLECTIVELY HYPE ABOUT THE PHANTOM BLOOD MUSICAL AGAIN?

Ooooh I love it when my favourite franchise does something that makes me feel like a giddy kid jumping in front of the TV again. I love this feeling. Magic in my chest.

Congrats on the whole team that made this musical happen. I can't wait to see it properly!

POKAPRIL Day 21 : Team Star Mela

I'm sorry but these can't be comfortable...

Plan A: Convince Godzilla to cooperate.

Plan B:

KIDNAP HIM.

Come with Kong to Monkeyland!

Kong just wants to show his New Empire in Hollow Earth

My brain constantly nagging me to draw this as Kong:

josuke and tomoko have more of a big sister-little brother relationship than a parent-child relationship and honestly it's adorable

shelmet

love dungeon meshi senshi's character design bc when he has the helmet on he looks like a fucking pokemon

and then he takes the helmet off and hes just a guy with a face and forehead and everything

edit:

to me he looks like this

sunset battles make every kaiju movie more epic. bright enough to see what's going on. dim enough to look indistinct and ominous.

At one time the final battle in Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire took place in Moscow instead of Rio de Janeiro. I assume this was changed in light of Russia invading Ukraine (preproduction on the film began the previous month).

The first three pieces are by MUTO designer Matt Allsopp and the last is by Raj Rihal (with full Instagram post included because he used an amusing name for the Skar King).

they both cook monsters. it just makes sense, okay

Sus.

the crewmates from Among Us, but they aren't wearing astronaut suits, rather their colorful bodies is their actual skin and they have one big compound eye

@hrodvitnon He's got a lot of catching up to do.

Ford: "...And he's friends with the butterfly too?"

Jia: *signs* <Moth, actually. She's glad you saved his life.>

Trapper: "Ah, welcome to the team, good chap! The big ol' G-Man owes you when you saved him from those nasty parasite things in San Francisco!"

Bernie: *visibly a little paranoid* "Parasite...things? I sure hope this guy isn't infected or radioactive or...or something!"

Given the massive tonal shift across the five Monsterverse movies you know what's the funniest thing the MV could possibly do?

Bring Ford Brody back.

Now this gritty, serious, shell-shocked war veteran who fit right in with the first movie'a foreboding gloomy atmosphere now feels hilariously out of place next to an Ace Ventura-esque Titan dentist, a conspiracy-obsessed podcaster and a psychic deaf girl who's friends with a magical moth goddess and a titan gorilla with an axe and a robot arm.

Ford: (sighs) "Look what everything's come to in a decade."

(Also it'd be adorable if Godzilla sees him again and remembers him.)

The whiplash would be hilarious, and as the movie progresses Ford just goes along with everyone's nonsense with the same grimly determined face as when he prepped for a HALO drop back in 2014, and even pulls his own nonsense. Like if he's separated from the group and they're locked up in a cell.

Ford: Huh. Looks like this cell needs some hacking to unlock

Trapper: Oh, that explains why my lock picking didn't work! Military taught you how to hack, right?

Ford: No. *EXPLODES THE DOOR OFF* All right, let's go.

(GODZILLA LOOKING AT FORD LIKE "OH HEY, I REMEMBER YOU! HOW YOU BEEN, MAN?" YES PLEASE)

OOOOOH

The Thing That Was Not A Squirrel. Perhaps it got its name because it did, maybe, resemble a squirrel at first glance, until one took a closer look. Or perhaps it was something so incomprehensibly alien that a squirrel was the closest thing the human mind could percieve it as. Nobody is really sure.

Grandpa Goji is proud.

[connor-dioda]

YOOOOOOOOOOOO

although I'd imagined gijinka MV! Goji to be older, he does have that "middle-aged veteran fed up with everyone's BS" vibe about him

The Moth and the Lizard are married actually
