gamera, the giant monster
“gamera’s a good turtle.”
i love me some gamera but his first movie is just kind of okay, and i remember feeling that way about a lot of the shōwa era gameras, but i’m super open to having my mind changed! i do enjoy the symmetry of gamera being launched into space at the end and the next godzilla movie being invasion of astro-monster. i know that was probably completely unintentional on both studios’ parts, but it’s still pretty cute.
