  • 124. GODZILLA VERSUS MECHAGODZILLA
    Sep 30 2024

    Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we have a cheeky gander at another Toho studios movie, this time it's GODZILLA VERSUS MECHAGODZILLA. But will the 50ft robot pass our test?
