These movies aren't all that bad; cinematic junk food, perhaps, but sometimes you need junk food. 

Gigantis was re-retitled Godzilla Raids Again.

Don't remember much of At War With the Army, tho I'm sure I've seen it when I was a kid I think there was a song about beans. "Yes the Navey gets the gravey but the Army gets the beans, beans, beans, beans..."
