There is something about the Japanese their obsession with giant monsters battling each other. Over the summer me and my friends had a party on world UFO day. We watched some incredibly bad old alien films. apart from Santa Conquers the Martians we watched a movie called Destroy All Planets.
Since we weren't really paying attention we couldn't figure out what the plot of this movie was. It started of with a ship in space the looked like a ring of bumble bees. Then there was another ship. I commented, "It looks like a turtle!" Directly after I said that flames stopped shooting out of it and out popped a head and legs. Turns out it was turtle. Even though the movie had just started we were all totally lost.
Next scene had something to do with waht looked like kid filled military base. A couple of jokers snuck into a submarine and palyed with the wiring so that everything ran backwards. Then when they took it down they saw our friend the giant fire breathing turtle.
Without any warning the scene changed and we were watching a battle between the giant turtle and giant lizard of some sort. Then after a little bit of that a pterydactyl type creature apeared and was battling them. When the sun came up the pterydactyl's head glowed and he disapeared.
Randomly it cut to a scene where the jokers from before were explaining what they saw to what I assume was a teacher of somesort. They said that they saw a giant turtle then BAM! We were back to the epic monster battle. After that we just turned it off and turned on Santa Conquers the Martians.
I'd love to say that this is the only movie like this I've seen but there are several. The Japanese love thier giant monster battles. Small creatures beating each other up is no fun. So they are incresed in size or put inside giant metal robots.
