Weekly Kaiju Movie Thread #63: Oooh, Options!

Super Inframan (1975) - One day we will indulge in the crazy insane madness that is Super Inframan. Perhaps this will be the time?
The Blob (1958) - Not to be confused with the immovable Frederick J. Dukes.
Battleship Yamato (2010 live action) - Toho studios brings the old animated TV series to live action!
Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger (1977) - Obligatory Harryhausen entry, and a Sinbad movie that tends to be overlooked.
Godzilla (1998 aka GINO) - You wanted the G factor? Well you got it, buster!
And in celebration of our move to SciFiJapan, I tweaked the way the poll works because I have the option.

Which may turn out to be the bestest idea ever, or may turn out to be a complete disaster, in which case, I blame Konga.

I actually really like that Sinbad movie, so it got my vote. My second vote went to GINO - mostly just to see how long I can stand it before I turn it off.

I was actually planning to watch Super Inframan this weekend. Just got it on DVD and figured it would make for a good friends over for movie night since I've never seen it

Linear Man strikes again! Which means... GINO.

Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger got my vote. It's my least-favorite Harryhausen Sinbad flick, but it's one of only two movies on this list that I have copies of, making it ever-so-convenient.

Most people only voting once, or perhaps saving a vote for later to turn the tide?

I tried to "save" my second vote, but it looks like you have to place both votes at the same time

you could have cast 2 votes at the time of voting. if you only cast one vote it only counts as one vote, so you cant vote twice for the same thing

I own all these films, and I enjoy 4 of the 5. But seeing Yamato here for the first time, Gotta support that even if the film was a little disappointing, its still a solid sci-fi film in itself

I voted Yamato and Super Inframan, which were no match for the Harryhausen effect. Let the Sinbadding commence!
O.Supreme, interested in taking this week?
