Gamera 2: Attack of the Legion (1996)

I love these three 90's Gamera movies. What a comeback. Gamera is the Rocky of Kaiju as he always gets the crap beaten, burned and stabbed out of him and comes back still to kick a*s and win. Usually I much prefer to watch with the Japanese dialog and subtitles but on these movies the english dub is too entertaining to pass up. There are some great humorous moments that are only there with the english dub that are done well and not at the expense of the characters or the story (well except for the southern fried version they do in the extras on the DVD, which is hysterical). I like Attack of legion better than Guardian of the Universe (still great!) as Gamera is a little less clumsy looking and the Legion idea is so cool. When Gamera flys in and does a sliding circle on his feet around legion while firing fire balls it's truly awesome!! I think I'm starting to like Gamera more than Godzilla. I like his connection with Humans and his origin is a lot more interesting. Still Godzilla has the best roar of all time. I haven't had this much fun watching a guy in a rubber suit since I was a kid watching the 60's kaiju movies. Forget CGI monsters, Japan still does it best with inventive visuals and a lot of love.
