Every other Letterboxd review of GORGO makes a half-assed joke about it being "British Godzilla" and a cheesy rip-off

2025 brought so many opportunities and events my way, and I’m so thankful for each and every one of them. I continue to feel deliriously lucky to be able to share my love of kaiju cinema in big, exciting ways 💕

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

Roar Uthaug, if you keep making TROLL movies, I’ll keep watching them. Thanks to The Asylum, we’ve collectively forgotten that “rip-off” doesn’t have to be an insult. These movies are well directed, competently acted, and entertaining as hell. TROLL 2 is a hoot. More, please! 🧌

SURPRISE! We arranged a brand-new and exclusive video message from Zedus suit performer Mizuho Yoshida for the Barbican's screening of GAMERA THE BRAVE last night! The screening was also introduced in-person by Japanese cinema expert Yuriko Hamaguchi. A huge thanks to Jim Cirronella! 💕 🐢

I’m sure my own followers know by now, but just in case:

The UK’s anti-trans hysteria is just that: hysteria. The UK is a stand out in how mainstream politicians have adopted this horrible bigotry.

At the risk of sounding like ‘getting a lot of Boss Baby vibes’, do we just not talk about how THE SOPRANOS kinda wholesale lifted its ending from THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY?

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.
This is so disgusting.

Take a break from the awfulness by naming some non-Japanese monster movies you think have the feel and vibe of a kaiju film👇
