Godzilla Versus Magoo!


I've spent more than a few hours this past summer viewing Godzilla movies and Mister Magoo cartoons, so I was more than entertained when I stumbled across the vintage ad above in which the powerhouses of media lock horns and compare their relative successes. Not much to say about it -- it's one of those things that just is.

  1. It is not difficult to imagine Mister Magoo wandering around Tokyo while Godzilla or some other giant kaiju thingie is on a rampage. Of course, Magoo would be oblivious to the monster, but he would notice the noise. He might grumble about whatever he thought the problem was-traffic, a storm, or construction work.

    1. A truly magnificent cartoon sir. It must be made.

  2. Kudos to you for knowing that MISTER has to be spelled out, just as in the opening credits of the theatrical shorts. Even Magoo's owners couldn't get it right in their ad above.
