Hey Golden Kamuya had ripped sweaty manly men doing sweaty manly things like posing sexy in a hot springs or doing a sexy pose in a sauna. Wait does my comment sound gay after awhile?
I know this movie takes place in a different universe, but I like to imagine that Mothra became the main protector of Earth after Godzilla melted down.
TOHO should be glad that you are covering their stuff, especially with the latest Legendary movies that have come out. More people are made aware of their older properties, you get to entertain everyone, and everyone wins. 🤦♂️🤦♀️🤦
I'm waiting to see Godzilla, Kong, Mothra, Rodan, and company team up against King Ghidorah, Death Ghidorah, Kaiser Ghidorah, and Grand King Ghidorah. Of course, it should be by Legendary and called Destroy All Ghidorahs.
There’s probably something to be said about Toho making a a series of Mothra movies to appeal to women and young girls and making the staring Mothra a male. There also probably something to be said about Mothra Leo being so OP and actually surviving each of his movies.
For the record, the entire Mothra trilogy wasn't enough to make me forget the Australia wildfires from last year - and damnit, we really need Mothra in real life to reforest Australia, all of Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Americas right now!!!
The USA and Canada has more trees now than they did a hundred years ago.. also America plants more trees every year than they harvest.. Plus just during the corn season and not counting all the other crops. America produces more O2 than the Amazon rain forest and converts more co2 than the Amazon rain forest.
Kinda makes me wish we had plenty of kaiju around restoring the environment like what we saw in Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019), at least until they went back sleep by the time of Godzilla vs. Kong
2:09 Uh-oh. If you flip that medallion over, you can see that it's clearly a Mickey Mouse medallion. You don't wanna summon Mickey. He'll purchase Toho right out from under you. Then all future Godzilla videos will be flagged by Disney.
In the Rebirth of Mothra trilogy I always found it odd that Mothra fought two different versions of King Ghidorah. Ghidorah is Godzilla's nemesis and there are plenty of other monsters that could be Mothra's rival. Like Rodan since he is also a flying monster, Batra was cool, or Gigan since in Final Wars it was said they fought thousands of years ago, and maybe Megaguirus since he is also a flying bug with a cool design and they fought once in the comics.
I appreciate the reference to Skeetera at 12:28 "Godzilla: The Series" (AKA the thing that redeems Godzilla 98) is surprisingly good for what it is and had some legit great kaiju designs (and some...not so great ones).
Probably one of the most clear cases of the "Decoy protagonist" tope with Kaiju. The film is called Rebirth of Mothra, and features Mothra, the queen of the monsters looking prettier than ever. Only for her to be killed and for her son to take over for the entire trilogy.
Its weird that Brandon tenold didn't know that kaiser ghidorah also had legs and a darker look. Even Final wars' (the movie kaiser is in) footage ends up being in this review
Your videos always make my day but the kaiju monster films always have a special place in my heart, i love Mothra! :) He son Leo isn't so bad either! :)
As an Australian, thanks for the shout out, we're doing fine, you see there's nothing left to burn... Okay, that last bits not true, but we're doing fine.
2:33 I usually strech my hand like that when I trying to reach off-switch in my bathroom. It's really sad Adolf The Psychotic and his fanboys ruin this overall innocent gesture to everybody.
I never noticed this until I re-watched the movie, but Death Ghidorah's roar sounds like a heard of Elephants. It's actually kind of hilarious when you think about it.
1:50 Hidden Mickey! 3:15 That hidden mail looks a lot more like a newspaper than mail. 3:39 That mini dragon looks great, but Mothra looks like a muppet.
You know after watching these I have to say. A Mothra concept where she dies, but with each Caterpillar version that hatches after makes her stronger, and more powerful. Kind of like a cycle of life death, death, renewal. In a sadistic reincarnation sense.
Mothra has life insurance, Mothra Leo traded his ability to get reproduction-based life insurance for broken, over the top power that lets him survive fights. Question remains though, is Mothra like... 100% dead now, really?
Good news: Mothra has her own movie series! Bad news: she brought Kennys...
We're doomed.
I'll take a bunch of Kenny's over a flim-flam any day!
The Kenny's??????? Oh, no..........
Fuckin Kenny's !!

@@crimson1million the Giant Claw: so like a flying battleship, that they had to tell you it was like a battleship, every time that battleship-sized creature did anything.
Wont lie, the first Mothra movie actually gave me feelings when Leo larva and his mother fought Ghidorah. Shit was brutal despite the target audience.

Mothra in these movies is basically a living plush toy that you’re not amazed or terrified by like a real Kaiju, you just wanna cuddle it.
Isn’t that kind of the point of Mothra though?
Mothra was already before these films, both the Showa and her Heisei, and she was already tender in and of herself.
As a guy who cuts trees down for a living. Not once have I released a Kaiju at work. It's just not fair.
Well, sorry about that. ;(
Yeah but you guys released a Tim curry voiced Hexxus. They made a movie about it.
You were probably cutting down the wrong trees. You’ll get the right trees one day.
Work harder then
Bro you have to cut down trees in Japan to summon a giant monster.
"It has been said, that through the ages, without sacrifice... there can be no victory. Two species at war. One Flesh. One Monster... Godzilla has left us."
"Honey, I Shrunk the Kaiju!" I would pay to see that movie!

Funny you should say that. In the Marvel Comics SHIELD once tried to stop Godzilla by shrinking him with Pym Particles...

I think the problem isn't the kids themselves, but the fact that they're dubbed by adults makes the whinning really annoying.
I would love it if someone did a fandub project with actual effort in the dialogue. But we all know what dmca nightmare that would be
Mothra "It's too late Kenny I have the high ground."
Kennies "you understand our annoyance."
Fun fact: The Death of the old Mothra was the video that made me know the Mothra trilogy exists
Same here
All they need is the Japanese equivalent of The Lorax. He'll speak for those burnt up trees.
@@yoda908 I thought Mothra's first film was all about that?
Pom poko, nausicaa, laputa et cetera
To be fair, knowing Japan folklore, they probably have something like that.
I'm surprised that they haven't turned Mothra into a magic girl by now.
Don't give them ideas!
*laughs in fan art*
I'm sure it exists. Lol
I'm sure there's fan art if ya look good enough ;)
I for one would love a Mothra that could punch and kick. Joshi Puroresu Mothra? Can I get a hell yeah?!
I know this movie takes place in a different universe, but I like to imagine that Mothra became the main protector of Earth after Godzilla melted down.
I used to think that as well back when discovered this series.
Godzilla Junior became the new protector after Godzilla vs. Destroyah

Each movie he gets a new power up
Several in the last one.

Oh my Godzilla, they killed Mothra! You bastards!
Atleast your “oh my godzilla” joke wasn’t as cringe as KOTM 2019
I rate that one 8/10
Glad that you’ve finally got around to the Mothra trilogy Brandon
This is the earliest I've ever been to one of Brandons videos and I'm sort of happy he's finally covering this series.
Man, I was lucky to stumbled on this.
Pretty epic review on this pretty alright movie from the Mothra Trilogy.
Also I wish y'all a great day.
I died at the Rita Repulsa joke. I’m so glad you’re doing the mothra trilogy.
Gamera: Sorry kids, I have to have a critically acclaimed film trilogy, so you can't be in it. Go bother Mothra.
The Kennys: Ok!
There’s probably something to be said about Toho making a a series of Mothra movies to appeal to women and young girls and making the staring Mothra a male.
There also probably something to be said about Mothra Leo being so OP and actually surviving each of his movies.
That Rita Repulsa part, lol, I love it.
"AUGH! It's Mothra! AUUUUUUGH!"
“I have a headache!”
For the record, the entire Mothra trilogy wasn't enough to make me forget the Australia wildfires from last year - and damnit, we really need Mothra in real life to reforest Australia, all of Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Americas right now!!!
I totally agree. Do we...do we...sing the mothra summoning song?
Calm down, Don Cheadle.
The Australian wild fires where (and will be) caused by lack of back burning.
The USA and Canada has more trees now than they did a hundred years ago.. also America plants more trees every year than they harvest..
Plus just during the corn season and not counting all the other crops. America produces more O2 than the Amazon rain forest and converts more co2 than the Amazon rain forest.

Only for her to be killed and for her son to take over for the entire trilogy.
Ah nice, the Mothra trilogy aka the perfect connecting piece between the Heisei series and the Millennium series. :D
Belvera looks like a Gothic Lolita. Would fit right in at a Goth bar.
11:24 “It’s also famous for its 1,000 year old virgin trees.”
"The Monolith Monsters" is a groovy movie.
Mothra dies so much that she was mad into a bug type phoenix in the Legendary Godzilla movies.
If these versions of mothra appeared going against the g man, he’d be getting fucked up XD
Oh no Kenny, Brandon's one weakness!

This 👆
His roar sounds like a heard of elephants.
I never noticed that until re-watching the movie.
Toho basically reused the design for Kaiser Ghidorah in “Final Wars.”
You are my spirit animal, sir. Keep up the good work, bringing smiles to the world.
Mothra Leo and the rebirth of mothra monsters are underrated for me
Brandon: and then we all get milkshakes with straws. Me:death ghidorah heads look like straws.
Ah yes, the snarky Canadian is back at it again, with another banger video. Keep up the good work!
I always watch to the end of Brandon's videos because the outro music at 1.5x speed is some funky gold.
2:11 But the perfect audience for the Japanese equivalent: Zyuranger.
Can we talk about how sad Mothra's death scene was?
I was sad because Heisei Mothra is my favorite Mothra design.

Here before the “flagged by Toho” gang

"That's why our baby mothers love us but they hate each other". Awesome D12 reference.
Desghidorah, or at least how it's pronounced, sounds like an adorable action figure of King Ghidorah you'd keep on your computer desk.
