Ohhhhhhhh no there goes Tokyo! Join Dave and Jess as they watch Godzilla Minus One, available on Netflix. This kaiju flick is the first Godzilla movie to win an Academy Award - do Dave and Jess agree with the Academy, or should this film be regarded with the same disdain reserved for Roland Emmerich's failed adaptation.
The couple discuss the superiority of subtitled vs dubbed versions of foreign films, along with a review of American versus Japanese versions of Godzilla (including that odious Roland Emmerich version from 1998), and the kid-friendly cartoon.
Jess receives a revelation when she realizes how the game Minesweeper was named after a certain scene in this movie, and Dave laments how similar this movie is to a certain unproduced screenplay he wrote.
