GODZILLA = I'm Geeking the F' Out

When Kvltwalter was just a little boy (before he even knew anything about being "kvlt" or what kvlt was) he was a little Godzilla nerd who geeked out every time he saw an old, low-budget 'Zilla movie on TV or got a new 'Zilla toy for Christmas (many of these toys I still have, no shame.) My dad would always snicker whenever he saw me watching one of these movies because of how corny they were, and sure, even I knew they weren't all that great, but I loved the monsters and thought they were just the coolest things ever. I would even go to Toho tribute sites just to look at pictures of all the monsters and read their bios. Yes, I was a little nerd, and now I'm a little nerd again because a few months ago I saw this epic-as-all-hell trailer:
