Malachi: What does your name come from, Godzilla?

Godzilla: It comes from a combination of the Japanese words for whale and gorilla.

Malachi: So, what was your favorite movie?

Godzilla: Well, I really enjoyed my first film. You could call it Godzilla: King of the Monsters or just Godzilla. It was really nice to have my first stomp on a building.

Malachi: Who is your favorite monster to work with?

Godzilla: Anguirus. He's my best friend. We got off to kind of a rough start together, but we've made friends since then. Mothra was great fun. She told a few jokes, and boy, was she sexy.

Malachi: Who was your least favorite?

Godzilla: Mechagodzilla. He actually killed me, once, but thanks to Rodan, I was restored to life. She brought me back in her dying moments. Man, that Mechagodzilla... what a jerk! He acted totally uprofessional--which he was! He acted like he was the king of the show, but I certainly blew his circuits off.

Malachi: How about your least favorite movie?

Godzilla: Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II, because I felt really wussy being beaten by him. Luckily, I won out in the end.

Malachi: Have you had any kids?

Godzilla: Oh, only two, but one of them changed rather rapidly.

Malachi: Who do you think is your most dangerous enemy?

Godzilla: Destoroyah. The thing I don't like about him is that he's an animal with the power of the Oxygen Destroyer that was used against me in the first movie.

Malachi: I've heard that you've changed a lot over the three Godzilla movie series. How have you changed?

Godzilla: Well, I've got this new weapon, which is a nuclear pulse, sort of like a shockwave that comes out of me. I've also gotten a lot bigger through the series. In the first series, I was only fifty meters, ten meters shorter than my friend Anguirus! Then I was eighty meters, twenty meters bigger than Anguirus. I finally ended up 100 meters tall.

Malachi: Thank you, Godzilla!
