b'Hello, kaiju lovers!\\nFinally, the \\u201cKong Quest\\u201d comes to an end! After months of delays due to avoiding competition and COVID-19, Godzilla vs. Kong has been released. It\\u2019s not a fever dream\\u2014it\\u2019s real! Nate is joined by his friend, Nerd Chapel founder Eric Anderson, to discuss the epic rematch nearly 60 years in the making. They host a special premiere for the Legendary film at the newly opened Denham Theater, an event that\\u2019s been delayed and rescheduled as often as the film\\u2019s release. A cavalcade of special guests attends, including the little Iwi deaf girl Jia. She is the youngest of \\u201cKong\\u2019s Queens,\\u201d all the surviving ladies who have captivated the Eighth Wonder over the years. Nate and Eric dive deep into the deceptively simple movie, discussing Kong\\u2019s \\u201chero\\u2019s journey,\\u201d the Jules Verne-ian/Edgar Rice Burroughs-ian world-building, and its theme of mankind trying to control forces greater than themselves. You\\u2019ll also hear them compare the movie to Conan the Barbarian, Die Hard, and The Lord of the Rings.\\nThe Toku Topic isn\\u2019t about the content of the movie itself but a debate raging around it: movie theaters vs. streaming services. Which do you prefer to see a movie for the first time?\\nAfterward, Nate and company hear that Kong had too much to drink at the after-party and has gone on a drunken rampage. MIFV\\u2019s intrepid producer, Jimmy From NASA, volunteers to handle the situation the best way he knows how: Mechani-Kong Mk. 2. That goes about as well as you\\u2019d expect, so Nate and Eric recruit one of \\u201cKong\\u2019s Queens\\u201d for help so beauty can save the beast for once.\\nPrologue and Epilogue written by Nathan Marchand with Eric Anderson.\\nMusic:-\\u201cHere We Go\\u201d by Chris Classic-\\u201cPensacola, Florida (Godzilla Theme\\u201d by Junkie XL-\\u201cSkull Island (Kong Theme)\\u201d by Junkie XL-\\u201cA New Language\\u201d by Junkie XL-\\u201cMain Title\\u201d by Moscow Symphony Orchestra, composed by Max Steiner\\nSound effects sourced from Freesound.org (including some by InspectorJ).\\nWe\\u2019d like to give a shout-out to our MIFV MAX patrons Travis Alexander and Michael Hamilton (co-hosts of Kaiju Weekly); Danny DiManna (author/creator of the Godzilla Novelization Project); Eli Harris (elizilla13); Chris Cooke (host of One Cross Radio); Bex from Redeemed Otaku; and Damon Noyes!
