If I can draw Mothra, then what about Godzilla? Hm?

Thanks for hearing me out there, I really needed all of that. I think your blog (as well as other tumblr blogs in general like kaiju-krew) help keep me sane while witnessing all sorts of really dumb takes from the fandom, especially from the likes of Twitter and Reddit. The worst takes I've seen so far are the ones that claim that unlike Kong, if Godzilla ever encounters another one of his kind, he would kill them just for disrupting his nap and/or harm a baby of his kind because he's a reptile and something something "alphas in nature kill offspring that isn't their own to prevent competition" and junk like that.

It just really sucks to see them humanize Kong (and in many cases, turn him into a literal saint) while at the same time, reducing Godzilla to just a dumb animal when they're both intelligent and sympathetic but flawed individuals.

Also your comparisons of MV Godzilla to Doomguy and cats is very on-point. All three of them may look and act prickly at first, but there's more to them than just that and if you actually take your time to look past that and get to know them better while respecting their space, they're actually not bad at all. And in the case of both Godzilla and cats, it's kind of like intruding into an introvert's personal space and acting constantly annoying to them, and then getting mad and calling them a jerk once they show signs of wanting you to leave them alone.

(About Matt Frank's post, I took another look at it and he deleted the initial post, probably because of all the backlash he got from it since he misunderstood MV Godzilla's character hard. And in case you're curious on what the post said, it's something on the lines of something like "It's great that MV Godzilla is just an aggro jerkface in the whole movie (GxK) for NO reason at all and I'm all for it").

(That said, his follow-up replies to that are still there and they're still not the best takes. Here they are, for anyone who doesn't have access to that hellish site.)

Yeeeep, this is why I stay as much as possible away from the Twitter and especially the fandom side of Reddit; in fact, there are very specific reasons I would venture into those lawless depths: Check if anyone else has run into a game bug I've encountered and any workarounds for it, or fun gifs I just happened to spy on a Google Image search.

And you know, maybe it's because I just woke up, but to those who demonize Godzilla, I'm about to do something fuckin' hilarious with my power as a fic writer with my own canon at my fingertips. Check this shit out: In an AbraxasVerse take of GxK, when Godzilla is napping in the Colosseum and the authorities are like "what the fuck do we do," who rolls up but THE ACTUAL POPE to welcome the giant napping Nukasaurus Rex and be like "This is a beast of god who protects our world. I talked about this the last time he saved us, did you not listen to my sermon last Mass? For shame. Let the noble beast rest. Amen." Not in those exact words, but yeah.

Oh yeah, @thebeastunleashed showed the the tweets on Discord. Matt, I respect ya as a phenomenal kaiju artist and you're entitled to which Goji's your favorite and also your opinion, but sometimes it's okay to be wrong. (Incidentally, my favorite Godzillas are Heisei and MonsterVerse so I happen to prefer a Godzilla with a soft side.)

Whilst there are unfortunately some users on here who add to the toxicity of it, a quick glance at the Facebook side of the Godzilla fandom really shows how nice the tumblr side really is. 

[alanmorlock]

Looks like tumblr finally set itslelf on self destruct.  It was barely shambling along anyways.  Still, as far as Godzilla fandom goes, this is the only place online that ever felt actually positive, a few oddly-gender-based spats aside. Kaiju tumblr is the only place I’ve found that captures the humor and positivity of G-fest year round.  

Tumblr itself is shit though.

Goodnight, Tumblr Kaiju Krew. It’s debatable whether I or Kaijusaurus Steven coined that title, but he’s not on here anymore so I’m just gonna say I did it.

In the eventuality that this blog somehow gets deleted... If you’re ever in Chicago, look me up I guess!

Interesting Moments in Tumblr Kaiju Krew history

@herr-kroenen tumblr almost killed an OC kaiju comic, before it collapsed under it’s own weight

@astoundingbeyondbelief  get’s name dropped on the official Shin Godzilla Bluray @godzilla1998 appears in an international Shin Godzilla trailer

me in the tumblr kaiju krew discord: ah yes but let us consider the artistic nuance behind such a stylistic choice and remember the subjectivity of audience interpretation inherent in observing a work we did not create

also me in the tumblr kaiju krew discord: big lizard good

Favorite ultra kaiju?

So... ...my deep dark secret is that I haven’t actually watched any of Ultraman yet. Most of what I know about Ultraman is second-hand from the Tumblr Kaiju Krew, so I don’t really have a great idea on how the Ultra series handles it’s kaiju. So until further notice (when I actually get my rear in gear and start watching it) I’m gonna cheap out and say Melos from The Ultraman Animator Expo Short because he’s pretty cool

Can Kamata-kun be the unofficial mascot of the Tumblr Kaiju Krew? He seem to be our icon.

The Second Annual G-FAN Readers Poll, in actuality the written test required to become a member of the Tumblr Kaiju Krew (kidding of course).

Dear Kaiju Tumblr,

Does anyone know what the hell happened to the sequel to Bong Joon Ho’s “The Host”?  I remember years ago seeing some clips, still and designs for a sequel but then I guess it never came to fruition.  Does anyone know why it fell apart?  The clip above is damned great btw.
