the japanese all have american made cars and a F-86

The same can be said for almost every Japanese monster movie of the era. The most commonly seen non-Japanese vehicle is the Willy's MB Jeep.  TongueOut

The F-86 was the F/H versions. Supersonic only in a dive. Ya know, the sheer mass of Rodan provides the power of the slip stream. Thats what breaks up the jets when he passes near.

A couple of questions need answering:
a) Why doesn’t Tokyo suspend mass transit service when there is a monster attack?
b) Why does the Japanese government always stock pile it’s military with forty year old U.S jet fighters and tanks?
c) Wouldn’t attacking a monster that is the only one (or in this case two) of its kind an infringement on endangered species  acts?
d) Wouldn’t atomic bombs fry eggs, not incubate them?

I think that depends on which species is the most endangered,
Them or us!

Yeah, I mean, it makes no sense for a country to use cars made in another country. Anyway here's a good site showing the cars used in the film: http://imcdb.org/movie_49782-Sora-no-daikaiju-Radon.html

Here's my synopsis:
Big bug kills people.
The ENTIRE Japanese military is dispatched to destroy it.  After one blast from a machine gun fails to do the trick, the entire Japanese military retreats.
Rodan= obvious plane footage.
Five minutes of destruction.
Five minutes of the entire Japanese military blowing s**t up.
AWESOME B MOVIE!!!

This is one of those that felt flat to me as a 6 yr old kid in 54 that was terrified by Godzilla.  SO what, big unfortunately ugly birds.  The same poor f-86's on a string shooting firecrackers, and the woefully underprepared Japanese military that couldn't hit the ocean if aiming.  This one didn't do to much for me even as a 7 or 8 yr.  old by the time I saw it.  I was already mainlining Godzilla to be too impressed by a couple of birds.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
