re: #392 De Kolta Chair
Last night I watched the MST3K version of the 1961 Brit monster flick “Gorgo,” which had many of the same plot points as the latest “Godzilla.”
According to the Wikipedia article on the movie:
Australia was also considered for a locale, but the producers supposedly decided that audiences “wouldn’t care” if a monster attacked Australia; Australia’s alleged lack of worldwide recognisable landmarks for Gorgo to destroy was also cited as a consideration.
