The hollow earth stuff was among the most fun and ridiculous things about Godzilla vs Kong. I'm tentatively looking forward to this. So far, I've found the monsterverse Godzilla movies joyless slogs, the Kong movie great fun, and the Godzilla and Kong movie at least entertaining.The trailer is out for the Godzillla VS King Kong sequel. From can I can understand, some of it appears to be taking place inside a hollow Earth.
Right, well, that's conclusive.It seems that apart from the space stuff, mormonism also deals with a hollow Earth.
"I asked where the nine and a half tribes of Israel were. 'Well,' said [Joseph Smith], 'you remember the old caldron or potash kettle you used to boil maple sap in for sugar, don't you?' I said yes. 'Well,' said he, 'they are in the north pole in a concave just like the shape of that kettle. And John the Revelator is with them, preparing them for their return.'" [Benjamin F. Johnson, My Life's Review (Independence, MO: Zion's Printing and Publishing Co., n.d.), pg 93.]
I stumbled upon a second hand copy of this when I was around ten, the dero stuff abolutely terrified me! I was simultaneously fascinated and freaked out by the whole book, though as I got older, I'd realise it'd get moved to the 'dubious but fun' section. I need to give it a re-read.I think its absolutley terrific.
(one of my first fortean books is `This Hollow Earth` by Warren Smith` and its still one of my favorites)
We need more nutters like this, both to amuse us and help us keep our sense of wonder, but to prove how silly they really are.
But 13 days is far too short for such a momentous expidition.
