I think I might change my screen name. . . I was doing some dusting and found this "card" under one of my Knick-knacks:

Yes, I'm a Godzilla afficianado. . . Not the old "Kermit the Frog" Godzilla from the '60s and '70s, but the butt-kicking Godzilla with an attitude from the '80s, '90s and '00s.

Hey, at least I'd still be refered to as "Supercharged!"

Then again. . . Supercharged Godzilla really has nothing to do with trucks. . .

That's from "Ferris Bueller Meets the Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. . ." Aka, "Godzilla." Good movie, but NOT Godzilla.

But, that IS a cool poster!

its not a poster..its just the word godzilla and that green flame stuff. anyway...no true fan would admit to liking the ferris bueller version...its all about the poorly dubbed japanese folk and their super fake high tech labs, and mothra or rhodan...or mecca godzirra...

The Godzilla Millennium Series (2000+) kicks butt!

Godzilla looks MUCH meaner than ever before.

I like Godzilla as much as I like Star Wars -- maybe even a bit more! Of the movies released in the '80s, '90s and '00s (total of 12), I'm only missing 2 (Godzilla 1985 and Godzilla vs Biollante -- only because they're not available on DVD yet). Of the 1950s through 1970s, I've got all but 4 (16 or 17 total). Yes, I'm a bit of a fan!

This is all stuff I have in my "Movie Room" -- mostly on the entertainment center, but a couple are on a bookshelf I have in there.

These are a few models I built and painted myself:

I know Spawn. Great comic, decent movie, really cool figures. Every now and then I see them at Toys R Us -- nothing major, but good sculpting work.
