He\u2019s lucky he\u2019s a paying Patron, or I would\u2019ve tongue-lashed him right back. <em>(Nate\u2019s editorial: Whatever helps you sleep at night, Jimmy).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now for what you actually came here to read: my notes on the episode. In between enduring some zingers, I managed to take a few. They were mostly responses to what Nate and Eli said as opposed to corrections. Kudos there, guys. But you won\u2019t always be able to escape that. So, here\u2019s what I jotted down:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>That\u2019s your best recommendation for a drink, Marchand? These are better: The Happy Moment, the Megalon Bomb, and the Plasma Spark. Although, my personal favorite is the Nick Adams Apple Cider.<\/li><li>Digimon is clearly superior to Pok\u00e9mon\u2014yes, because technology. I might even still have one (or three) of those virtual pet toys in my quarters. (Don\u2019t judge me!)<\/li><li>I want an ejection button and seat for the guests\u2019 chairs. I might even install one in the host chair, Marchand. I know George 3 has suggested I do that. After the episode 45 broadcast, it got more tempting. \ud83d\ude1b<\/li><li>Don\u2019t make me pull that EES lever, Marchand! I\u2019ll shoot you into space myself! \ud83d\ude1b<\/li><li>Or the show inspired the unmade <em>Godzilla <\/em>(1998) sequel? I\u2019m sure they were in development relatively close together. <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GasPCO-qSYU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">This video from the Kaiju Masterclass<\/a> online convention sheds some great light on it. It\u2019s an interview with screenwriter Tab Murphy.<\/li><li>I could take Monique. Can she claim to have survived the (in)famous War in Space? I don\u2019t think so! Next time I see her at the gym, I\u2019ll challenge her to a sparring match. I\u2019ll let you know how it goes. <em>(Nate\u2019s editorial: Badly).<\/em><\/li><li>I offered to have the H.E.A.T.-Seeker treated for rust, but Tatapoulos won\u2019t do it. He says the boat would lose its charm if it was treated. Maybe this is my inner \u201ccar guy\u201d talking here, but I have to disagree. Especially since you don\u2019t want rust weakening your hull when you\u2019re being attacked by a kaiju.<\/li><li>Randy Hernandez isn\u2019t ready for my quips. You know firsthand, Nate.<\/li><li>Nate, that was the Titan Truth Podcast logo! How did you miss that?!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As required by my contact, here are Nate\u2019s leftover notes from the episode:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNew Family, Part 1\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The Twin Towers are in the theme and some establishing shots. Awkward? <em>(No. \u2013Jimmy)<\/em><\/li><li>Pays very close attention continuity despite minor changes. Jamaica being Zilla\u2019s first stop.<\/li><li>Nick\u2019s attitude shifts even in this episode: from killing Zilla Jr. to studying it. More Toho-esque.<\/li><li>Zilla Jr. holds Nick like Kong does Anne. Almost eats him. Not because of fish smell? Acts like a dog\u2014scratches door and walks in circle before lying down.<\/li><li>Animal didn\u2019t know Nick was Audrey\u2019s boyfriend?! <em>(Can you blame him for forgetting? Remember the movie, man! \u2013Jimmy)<\/em><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u201cNew Family, Part 2\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>There are some scaling issues. Sometimes Zilla Jr. is HUGE. <em>(They went for drama and not realism, obviously. \u2013Jimmy)<\/em><\/li><li>Zilla Jr. throws rocks like Showa Godzilla. He\u2019s also clever and strategic. Thankfully, Zilla Jr. breathes atomic fire and is more durable. Survives landslide.<\/li><li>Establishes tension between HEAT and military.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDeadloch\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hugh Trevor. Pisces.<\/li><li>Funny how Monique yells, \u201cRandy!\u201d and Elsie yells, \u201cNick!\u201d when they dive in to save them. <em>(Two words: sexual tension. \u2013Jimmy)<\/em><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notes on the Series<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Godzilla is animalistic but smart enough to solve problems. He\u2019s loyal to HEAT, but he has his own agency.<\/li><li>They had access to other Toho monsters outside of the \u201cbig three,\u201d but they kept coming up with ideas for cool new monsters, so there was no room for them.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nate shared all his Loch Ness Monster research. Hot damn!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sadly, I don\u2019t know if Nate will survive the next episode, even with guest Daniel DiManna in the guest chair. He calls it \u201cthe nadir of the Year of Gamera.\u201d That would be <em>Gamera Super Monster<\/em>. Even with a pseudo-Star Destroyer and hot women in spandex, it\u2019s a hard sell for me. Assuming Nate survives, we get back to Godzilla Redux with 1956\u2019s <em>Godzilla, King of the Monsters!<\/em>, which will feature \u201cthe littlest gatekeeper,\u201d Elijah Thomas of the Kaiju Conversation podcast. That\u2019ll be interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See you next week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Follow me on Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NasaJimmy\/status\/1322791987213410305?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@NasaJimmy<\/a><br>Follow MIBOD on Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MonsterIslaBOD\/status\/1323267020641718272?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@MonsterIslaBOD<\/a><br>Follow Raymund Martin (The Monster Island Legal Team) on Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MIFV_LegalTeam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@MIFV_LegalTeam<\/a><br>Follow Crystal Lady Jessica on Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CrystalLadyJes1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@CrystalLadyJes1<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">#JimmyFromNASALives&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #WeShallOvercome<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can neither confirm nor deny that I spent a sizable portion of my latest paycheck on aloe vera cream after getting burned in episode&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/index.php\/2021\/08\/03\/jimmys-notes-on-episode-45-godzilla-the-series-new-family-and-deadloch-feat-eli-harris\/\">Continue Reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Jimmy\u2019s Notes on Episode 45 | \u2018Godzilla: The Series\u2019 \u2013 \u2018New Family\u2019 and \u2018DeadLoch\u2019 (feat.
