Godzilla using his atomic breath is the exact kind of flame that attracts moths. Specifically Mothra! As Cinema To The Letter continues to celebrate Godzilla's 70th anniversary, Thomas, Bryan, and special guest Chris Luciantonio are here to discuss the 1992 film Godzilla vs Mothra! Together, they'll answer all the crucial questions. What separates Godzilla's late 20th-century Heisei era from the classic Showa era? Does this kaiju film have anything to say about the environment in a totally subtle fashion? How fun are Ferris wheels once they smack you upside the head thanks to a giant moth monster? Well, stop listening to those twin fairies singing the Mothra song so you can listen in to find out!
