We are back with a double bill of Asian trash cinema projected live from VHS! Magic Crystal is what happens when a Hong Kong studio wants to rip off E.T. but lets Wong Jing write and direct it, making a martial arts fest that despite having a child protagonist and being clearly aimed at a young audience was rated 18 on cinema release because of all the kicking. There's KGB, Interpol, a magic crystal with Occult Powers and a liking for ice cream, and a school bully who gets his crystal-assisted comeuppance. Godzilla vs Mothra owes its existence to the popularity of the Indiana Jones films, which the first half pilfers liberally from, and to market research by Toho which showed that Mothra was more popular than King Ghidora among women. A new market was duly identified, and GvM (as the kids are all calling it) became the second highest-grossing film of 1993 in Japan, behind Jurassic Park. I'm really excited for this one, it should be boss
