Japan is out to prove they know how to make a Godzilla movie better than we do here in America. How did they do? That's what we're here to discuss.

It’s December, so that means it’s time for the AIPT Movies podcast’s “Holidanger” series! Where we cover the best kind of holiday movie: the ones where lives are on the line! In this week’s episode, Alex, Tim, and Matt discuss Tim Burton’s surprisingly dark and adult Christmas-themed sequel, Batman Returns!

Incredible production design that brings the snowy and fantastical Gotham City to life! One of Danny Elfman’s greatest scores! (Mostly) relatable villains the audience and even Batman can sympathize with! Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken, and a movie-stealing performance from Michelle Pfeiffer! Finally, a superhero movie with multiple scenes that take place on rooftops! A relic from a time when superhero movies had to appeal to wide audiences without relying on fan service! A misunderstood sequel with horror elements, adult themes, and a mini rom-com hidden within that’s finally getting the appreciation it deserves!

In addition, Alex shares his spoiler-free thoughts on The Holdovers and Godzilla Minus One, while both Alex and Tim talk about John Woo’s return to American action cinema with Silent Night!

You can find AIPT Movies on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. As always, if you enjoy the podcast, be sure to leave us a positive rating, subscribe to the show, and tell your friends!

The AIPT Movies podcast brings you the latest in movie news, reviews, and more! Hosted by supposed “industry vets,” Alex Harris, Tim Gardiner, and Matt Paul, the show gives you a peek behind the scenes from three filmmakers with oddly nonexistent filmographies. You can find Alex on Instagram and Twitter @ActionHarris. Matt is a terrific artist that you can find on Instagram @no_wheres_ville. Tim can’t be found on social media because he doesn’t exist. If you have any questions or suggestions for the AIPT Movies crew, they can be reached at aiptmoviespod@gmail.com, or you can find them on Twitter @AIPTmoviesPod.

Theme song is “We Got it Goin On” by Cobra Man.

Seth is shitting his pants to talk about this movie - everyone eventually joins in a happy festival of shitted pants. Godzilla is so good, man.

Whenever there is a film that demands the discussion of the Fake Nerds, be it an older one worth re-visitation or brand new, it ends up here in the Fake Nerd Cine-Files!

This is our review of the latest Godzilla film from Toho. Godzilla Minus One is written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki.

Ryan, Brandon, and Sparkz are here to give all their thoughts on one of the surprise SMASH hits of the year! Godzilla has come back to once again claim the title: King of the Monsters. It's an incredible period piece with rich characters and great thematic elements. There's so much praise they have to give and gush over the way the film connected with each of them. What a treat it is to speak about Godzilla this way! Enjoy the conversation!
