Nerd Reactor writes that a new international post has revealed the return of a fan-favorite Toho monster.
This one I'm excited about. I loved the first one. There was just something about the cast that was in it and the sense of humor to the whole movie but it was great. I'm hoping for a lot of the same on this one too.
The first movie was enjoyable. I didn't expect it to be to the level that it delivered. I do think it could be even better though, so I have high hopes for the sequel.
