It's now Independence Day. What is a film blog supposed to talk about on Independence Day? Can I get through an entire post dancing around the obvious topic? I'm gonna try. I'm not really a patriotic person. I respect my country, the US of A, but boy has it been a difficult country to love recently, and it seems even suggesting that I don't love the United States gets a few raised eyebrows in my direction (seems a bit creepily nationalist to me). But there is one thing I unreservedly love about my country and that is that I don't have to. I am under no obligation to think that America is the greatest country in the world or that our nation's policies and activities are moral and correct. That is the freedom I like to celebrate every Independence Day. To that end I think it would be interesting to indulge my inner Godzilla fan and explore the political undertones of Godzilla Vs. King Ghidorah (1991)
