CORRECTIONS AND UPDATES:
3:24- There are conflicting thoughts on which Godzilla suit this is. Some articles have said Godzilla vs Biollante. Knowyourmeme writes that its a BTS from Godzilla vs Mothra and then later in the same entry, it says it's a BTS from Godzilla vs Biollante. Some sources I trust firmly believe it's from Godzilla vs Destoroyah. I can't confirm any of these to be 100% accurate without knowing the original place the photo was published, but it's worth mentioning that I may have been inaccurate in attributing it to Godzilla vs Biollante.

See description for slight correction on the Godzilla suit in the wheelbarrow.
Thanks for showing more integrity than some journalists, MIB.
You should make that a series?
Could you talk about that knock off Godzilla/sentai toy set I saw that you have?
It trying to be a pain or a stickler but it’s pronounced “ee-tchee” like chew and not pronounced “icky”
Like a wise man once said: "Memes. The DNA of the soul.”-Monsoon 2013/2018 edit:your content actually gives me a ton of laughs I shared like two of your videos with my friend and he laughed at them. You inspired me to get more Bandai figures too
Actually, godzilla is quoted in the metal gear franchise. I just don't remember wich game
In 3
And also Hideo kojima sometimes posts something about shin ultraman and shin godzilla on Instagram
@@giganopode88 yeah
@@Sheengodzilla it’s not mgrr I already know but I already have some ideas to have gojira be inside kiryu fighting senator and even Godzilla kind of having robotic features
There's a bit more context to the original image used in the "Godzilla had a stroke trying to read this" meme that I wish more people would acknowledge because it's absolutely insane. What happened was that during the filming of Godzilla vs Mothra in '92, the then GhidoGoji suit (the BioGoji suit having been upgraded for Godzilla vs King Ghidorah) was STOLEN from TOHO. However, some time later it was found on the shore of Lake Okutama and was put in a wheelbarrow to be sent back to TOHO. That very image used in the meme is of the found GhidoGoji suit being sent back for restoration and use in Godzilla vs Mothra for the more suit-intensive shots that the new BatoGoji suit couldn't be used in.
But the part of all this that I think is the most interesting is that not only did they never find out who stole THIS suit, the 84Goji suit used in The Return of Godzilla was ALSO stolen and not only did they never find out who stole THAT suit either, they never even found it. Some cheeky guy stole a Godzilla suit and GOT AWAY WITH IT. So for a period of time the 84Goji suit was very likely somewhere out there in the world... but now it's probably been reduced to no more than dust.
Well I can’t acknowledge something I’ve never heard before… that is crazy! If I do a follow up video I’ll certainly revisit that meme to add this story. Is there a book or article I can cite tho? Would appreciate it!
@@MonsterIslandBuddies According to Wikizilla it's mentioned in A Critical History and Filmography of Toho's Godzilla Series by David Kalat, but I can't attest to that since I haven't read it (yet) but, there's a few videos about it, one being an American news report from 1992 (www .youtube. com/watch ?v=saEZF59S2sM) and the other being a Japanese news report (www .youtube. com/watch ?v=tCPYcK7jvOg)
Just to be sure, I put periods in the URLs of the videos so that (hopefully) it doesn't register the links so just remove the periods and that should (also hopefully) do the trick!
Edit: Nope, still shows up as links. Ok, I put a space after the "watch" in both links so hopefully THAT will work
Edit 2: Still registers. Alright, now I put two more spaces after the "www", here goes!
Edit 3: Oh my god. OK, now I put spaces after the "youtube." in the links so HOPEFULLY now it shouldn't register as links to youtube videos.
Wow thank you so much! I’m sorry linking in the comments is such a pain but I really appreciate the persistence. Seriously, thank you!
This isn't the 1989 Biogoji costume. This is the 1995 Desugoji costume for "Godzilla vs. Destroyer." If you look at the shape of the head, you'll see it does not match that of the Biogoji but more importantly, if you look at Godzilla's chest, shoulder, stomach, and thighs, you can see the "burning" blotches where the lights were installed.
The 1984 Godzilla suit was not stolen. Teruyoshi Nakano took it to North Korea with him and turned it into Pulgasari. Or maybe Nakano "technically" stole it by not telling Toho. At any rate, It became Pulgasari.
@@ConstantineFurman But the suit was stolen in 1992, before the Desugoji suit, or even the Mogegoji suit was created, so it couldn't have been the Desugoji suit. Furthermore, the "blotches" is damage to the suit, if you look at Godzilla's tail in the image you can see that the bottom is practically missing the outermost black layer. Although we don't know the story of what happened to the suit during its absence, given the damage it may have been on the shore of Lake Okutama for some time.
As for the part about 84Goji getting turned into Pulgasari, although I've heard whispers about it online in the past (although I can't really remember where, it's been some time) I haven't been able to find any information or sources about it.
I actually met the three Ghidorah actors at a local con in October 2019, and took a photo of them recreating the Kevin meme, even pairing it alongside the original image (crediting and tagging the artist who drew the pic in the first place). The artist, Michael J. Larson, even replied on Twitter saying…
“This makes me so happy. I can sincerely die happy now.”
Follow by a gif of a tearfully smiling Steve Carell.
This was very informative. I was always curious how a lot of these memes came to be. This was a well done video. It’s nice to see how much Godzilla has been integrated into meme culture over the years.
The Godzilla face palm is a classic
Real talk: I created that one.
So glad I got to meet you at gfest man! Thank you for the kong card! You literally saved my life man, thank you mib ❤
Oh and I hope you enjoy the mechamash up art i gave you!
@@GodzillaGuyy Godzilla guy M.I.B crossover happened off screen confirmed????
I’m endlessly thankful for getting to see you at g-fest MIB! The one thing that I didn’t anticipate is that you were willing to hug a 5 foot 10 teenager. Thanks again for the amazing content!
This makes me actually understand a fraction of this whole Internet thingie.
Thanks so much, MIB! Now I truly realize - just how old I am.
...
Okay, so I'm gonna go cry now.
I too am old, but it’s ok.
Man just revealed the entire lore of earth just by saying memes.
You know where the hornets are bad when even Godzilla “nope” outta here
That Ghidorah meme will live forever in my heart 💚🐍🐍🐍
Also, when translated from Japanese to English his 3 heads are named 1, 2, and 3. Clever.
Off topic, but I just wanna thank you for being part of my childhood. I was watching the MIB buddy videos way too young but I don’t regret it
The kevin meme is one of my favorite Godzilla memes of the past few years always cracks me up every time i see it lol
MIB then spams Toei telling them 'they are not very cash money'.
Then MIB sees a photo if Toei's head office in Tokyo and says 'Man, you guys are not very cash money are ya? No wonder you guys want to cling on to every penny you earn'. :D
'Then gets a copyright strike from Toho'. :D
So that's were the King Ghidorah drawing came from. Amazing video MIB!!
I love the way the art is in this video!!! I would love to see more like this!!!!
The video we didn't known about, but we needed it...
After 60+ years does The KING OF THE MONSTERS FINALLY get the recognition that he deserves!!
The first Godzilla meme I can remember, was a re edit of that weird photo that was going around in the days following 9/11 where a guy in glasses and beanie is getting picture taken on the observation deck of the WTC and a jet is photo shopped behind him as if he was there as it happened. When I was in college in 2002, my friend sent me that image but with Godzilla instead of a plane.
Imagine a world without memes
Sad
My favorite Goji meme has gotta be the facepalm one haha
Awesome, off-beat video MIB 👍 _The Oatmeal,_ along with _The Onion_ and _Obvious Plant_ have been some of my favorite satirical humor sites over the years 😄 And the picture of Gorosaurus giving a girl a piggy-back ride has to be my favorite publicity/behind-the-scenes photo ever 😂
Hey that's me! Im RWT1998. I had no idea that the "King Ghidorah in a nutshell" art was posted the same day as my Keven meme lol. Great video btw
Hey hey! Thanks for the nice words and for naming Kevin XD
Thanks for the shout out bro, it fun being a part of meme history!
the MIB mouth open pointing talksprite is the funniest shit for some reason
5:08 My greatest dream is that Godzilla crossovers with this anime
Awesome job MIB when is next EPISODE of monster island coming I love it .
A video discussing memes featuring illustrations made by yours truly with “meme” in my name.
Something oddly poetic about it lol.
Godzilla Memes are great.
The Godzilla Suit In A Wheelbarrow Was Actually A Stolen Godzilla Suit.
In 1989 In Believe, Someone Broke Into Toho Studios And Stole The Suit When It Was Just
Weeks Away From Filming. Several Weeks Later, An Old Lady Found The Suit On A Tokyo Beach. It Was Then Brought Back To Toho Just In Time For Filming.
The Picture Is Probably The Suit Being Wheeled Back To Toho.
See description
@@MonsterIslandBuddies Thank You!
I like the meme about the only trusted news sources being godzilla and mechagodzilla newscasters
That’s a good one for next time
I could swear the other two King Gidorah heads also had human names aside from Kevin ("ichi", "ni" and "san" just mean "one", "two" and "three" in Japanese)
Nicely done, I've always been curious to know where all those memes originated from, especially that one meme with Godzilla, Gamera and Mechagodzilla overreacting at the computer. All in all, keep up the good work!
Love your vids dude
The Godzilla in a wheelbarrel is actually Toho recovering the suit from a river near an old lady's house, after it was stolen.
It isn't. That happened in 1992. That is an image of the 1995 Desugoji suit from "Godzilla vs. Destroyer." Peep the blotches where lights were installed to create the burning effect.
The stolen one was the Biogoji/Gidogoji suit which doesn't look much like this one.
@@ConstantineFurman Those blotches are damages to the suit.
(6:09) are we not gonna talk about the fact that he pronounced “ichi” as “icky”?
No we’re not.
@@MonsterIslandBuddies Icky Vicky.
Gotta love memes man. Especially Godzilla memes
thanks for the content man this stuff makes me laugh keep up the good work 🙂
love the King Ghidorah meme
So glad I got the notif for this video. I can't wait to see how this goes.
There’s a really good video hope to see more😁
I once saw a meme involving the Wheel Barrel picture and above it was a screenshot of a UA-cam comment of someone saying they had a crush on the female MUTO
Even Godzilla is no match for those hornets.
Even dragonflies give him trouble.
I met u at g fest this year
U are my favorite youtuber
At 0:59,did not notice Godzilla at first
Thanks for the knowledge
I love meme explained videos and this one is no exception! I love learning the stories behind popular memes it’s so fun! I hope we get more meme explained videos!
HELL YEAH GODZILLA MEMES ARE UP THERE WITH ULTRAMAN MEMES!
This video was just so good and I love it so much
Also I wish y'all a great day
Pretty cool stuff. Are you going to be putting up a Gfest thoughts video?
Thanks! Yeah I recorded half a Babble about G-fest and meant to upload it earlier last week, but then life. Hoping to get back to it and upload mid-next week
Godzilla Had A Stroke Trying To Read This And Fricking Died 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Fun fact about 2019 King Ghidorah's heads names. Ichi is Japanese for 1 (一), Ni is Japanese for 2 (二) and San is Japanese for, you guessed it, 3 (三).
Thanks for the clear up
I always thought the stroke meme image came from the story of the stolen Godzilla suit that was found in a river. Also I can’t believe you included ifunny. You are definitely on a watchlist now!
So I’m just learning about the stolen suit today believe it or not. But I’m also in need of context with the ifunny comment because you’re not the first to say that lol. I don’t go on that site and barely know what it is. What’s up with ifunny?
These Godzilla memes are our culture and what we pass on
Not exactly Godzilla meme but it's even less common. There is this Ultraman meme call Japanizing Beam that is slowly being replaced by an anime clip
Like I said
If mib makes a Jojo reference, I'll have a sensory overload and then a heart attack
I think I'll shrivel into dust like Thanos' victims if he does.
Oh yeah mr Godzilla raaaaaaar
That’s a meme I just came up with even though it’s dead but it gives me a laugh
I now know more about these memes thank you
This is awesome
Godzilla Nope? QUICK! Someone contact Jordan Peel! That's what the sequel needs to be about.
The origin of Godzilla memes, I can't think of a better host than MIB. Oh, a couple of interesting things:
1. Today is the 51st anniversary of Godzilla vs Hedorah
2. Richard Dorton (Ghidorah's Left head/Kevin) follows me on Instagram!
Yay! New mib vid!
That's a really cool new logo for your channel.
Thanks! It’s by Matt Frank; he did it for me at G-Fest. I’m super excited about it
@@MonsterIslandBuddies Well, Isn’t Matt Frank The Artist Behind The IDW Godzilla Comics? You got The Luck of the Gods To Meet Such Person
Memes make for good laughs, especially the “that was not very cash money of you” meme, it was silly.
A monster island buddies can you a part two I can't wait to see what it would look like if you would make a part two I think a part two would be amazing so yeah I'm really hoping for part two
Godzilla Had A Stroke Trying To Watch This And Fucking Died.
3:25 This is what happened to Godzilla after he saw the 1998 film.
We need more Godzilla memes explain
Memes are the greatest invention lol
Good memes i love godzilla and memes
Well this is gonna be good
ayy yoo your new MIB Godzilla design look like it come from Bad Guy movie
I love this guy
Do a pt 2 please
Alot more memes are out there, we just haven't found most of them.
This is video is that same length as a modern day MIB episode
Godzilla Memes are Epic
Pls make more Godzilla episodes starting Godzilla is my favorite character
Will you make more monster island buddies episodes
I never knew that ‘that wasn’t very cash money of you’ was from Madoka Magica. Given how dark it could be i’d never have guessed that such a strange and funny phrase would come from, what I presume is, the manga.
Saw you passing by twice at GFest, but wasn't close enough to ask for a photo with you. Maybe I'll catch you next time.
Oh so that's where the Kevin thing came from.
If only the Godzilla community could make good memes.
great and informative as always. ( except for shitting on the SW sequels )
lol thanks for being a good sport tho :)
I'm surprised that MIB didn't even talk about the If "You Watch Godzilla Backwards meme".
OH NO! MY WORST NIGHTMARE COMES TRUE!!!! MIB IS A PNGTUBER!!! 😱😱😱
I'm still amused on how the left head of King Ghidorah who's one of the most dangerous and sadistic kaiju to ever exist in the Godzilla mythos is just called Kevin and at times I'd often associate him with Kevin from the SpongeBob episode I'm Your Biggest Fanatic.
It only applies to the Monsterverse Ghidorah. It doesn't apply to the other Toho King Ghidorahs. No one in Japan is calling the 1964 Ghidorah's left head "Kebin."
When is the next episode
We're all Godzilla fans here. We've all been accused of having 'garbage tastes' in movies a few times.
Yep
holy shit i didnt realize the oatmeal was still around
I like the prequels better than sequels
As bad as the execution was, at least the Prequels tried to take the series in a new direction. They also benifited by having a somewhat cohesive narrative under a singular vision, flawed as it was. The Sequels were just an attempt to cash in the nostalgia of the OT. That devolved into a grudge match over which direction to take the trilogy between its two directors, who had their own vision for each film. Utterly lacking a cohesive narrative between any 3 movies.
I love keven
Yeah
The Godzilla stroke meme is truly the bane of my existence. In 2020 I had a really bad stroke that left me disabled (I was watching a Gamera film at the time) and I always get reminded on that terrible night everytime I see that shitty meme. It isn't even funny. There are much better captions you could do for that meme that don't make people who had medical incidents feel like shit.
Sorry to hear about that.
That must've been horrible man. I guess it shows that not every single meme are meant to be enjoyable nor liked by all. I'm still sick of seeing jojo references left and right on the internet either because they're everywhere or they're unoriginal.
@@angellara7040 I mean you could literally just remove the stroke out of the meme and it'd be the same thing. "Godzilla read this and died" or something in that reign. It's not too hard.
@@angellara7040 I'll tell you right now...strokes don't cause pain...they aren't painful until after with the nerve damage.
So your response fails to have any truth.
@@angellara7040 whatever dude. Just find a thesaurus and put just an ounce of thought into what you post and how it can affect someone. If you're not willing to even try...then I have nothing more to say to you.
3:00 what km stronger and Amazon do in their free time
Back again!
the eat your veggies one
Are you gonna review war of the monsters on PS2?
Hey mib, think you can review any of the old Jojo’s bizarre adventure video games?
