That, in context, is an angle on the gag I did not spot.

Yeah I took it more as a gag on menopause brain lol

Which, I mean, I understood it as a gag about being scatterbrained and forgetting even important things almost immediately, but it had not occurred to me that making the speaker a woman could potentially add another dimension!

There’s no shortage of Godzilla comics, and I considered doing a longer series of them!

But I can’t turn everything into an epic, exhaustive work—much as that is my tendency. I’d never get anything else done! (As you know, I have other epic, exhaustive things I’m tryna do!)

Thanks for the clips! It's been ages since I saw BMG: I'd forgotten how much I love the credits, and the toenails.

I first encountered it in History of Animation back in college, Michaelangelo! And yeah, the credits really make it, and the toenails/claws are a nice touch.

I know I saw it once as a child, though I don't remember when or how (possibly an interstitial on PBS or HBO (during one of their free trial weekends)). I do remember the second time I saw it, though, as part of Spike & Mike's Classic Animation Festival. The entire audience yelled out "MARV!" as each credit appeared on the screen. That's the sort of audience engagement that makes communal filmgoing so rewarding.
