  • Invasion of the Astro-Monster (1965)

    It was decent, but definitely not as strong as the first few Godzilla movies. Godzilla certainly fell a long way from unstoppable killing machine to dancing a jig after punching Ghidorah. The Planet X plot was pretty good and the aliens were cool at the start, but became pretty predictable by mid-film. Otherwise, the monster battle was just a retread of the last film, but without Mothra.



  • As someone who subs to Disney, they really only have franchise content. If you’re not into Marvel or Star Wars then you’re basically just subbing for their backlog.

    Whereas Netflix and HBO are actually putting out standalone originals. Stranger Things, Squid Game, Money Heist, House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Grace and Frankie are/were all their own things without just being some movie franchise’s licensed tv spinoffs. Even HBO gives a mix of DC content with their original shows.

    There really isn’t much in the way of series created for TV for Disney itself. Even after buying FOX, there’s not any real original new content to compete with Netflix.
