Every summer the Canadian publisher of G-Fan magazine comes to the Chicago area to hold G-Fest, the Godzilla fan convention. Obviously there are times when more is going on with the character, and right now things are pretty active.
One of the best advantages of this situation is that even if, like me, you are past the point where attending the actual convention holds much appeal for you, they still run giant monster movies in my beloved Pickwick Theatre, a gorgeous old school movie palace that I pretty much grew up in.
They just today announced this year’s line-up:
Thursday July 11th
Godzilla’s Revenge 1:00
Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster (pretty sure it used to be Ghidrah, but whatever) 3:00
X The Unknown 7:00 PM
Godzilla Mothra Ghirdorah: All Monster Attack 9:00 PM
Friday July 12th
Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) 10:30 PM
Saturday July 13th
Monster Zero 10:30 PM
Free lodging to anyone who wants to come in for the con and/our movies. If you do, the Superdawgs are one me.
