… and you thought these two were monsters?

Warner Bros., cashing in on the popularity of its just-released big-budget monster movie, has signed its director, Adam Wingard, to helm its next major motion-picture production, Godzilla and Kong vs. the GOP.

Normally we have one or two so-called villains in the Godzilla films,” Wingard said, “but in this production there’ll be a plethora of scumbags for Kong and Godzilla to deal with. And I’m sure they’ll all get their well-deserved comeuppance.”

The script is still in the fine-tuning stage but studio insiders have revealed a few of the subplots.

In one, a wealthy civilization, Texasia, devastated by an endless winter, unleashes the Cruzians, Abbottites and Cornyions to wreak havoc upon the land by slinging mud, lies and fantasies.

In another, the territory of Gorgia, a vast southern wasteland ruled by a mindless being known as the Brain Kramp and an acolyte called the Green Marge, attempt to destroy democracy by blocking all roads to a representative government.

And in a third, a band of miscreants known as The Cabinet pursue their dream of destroying middle-class America. An “agriculturalist” called the Chicken plans to poison all tillable land, an “educationalist” known as Batsy orders English grammar to be reduced to grunts, a “transportationalist” named Ciao decrees that all highways lead to a magical land called Kintucki, and a “legalist” who goes by the nickname Pudgy Bar tries to turn the original U.S Constitution into origami before Kong discovers the plot.

Meanwhile, a colony of giant insectoid aliens representing cockroaches known as Cottonmouth, Turtlemitch, Marsally, Bennisasse, Grassass, Marcubio, and Tillus emerge from a swamp (coincidentally known as The Swamp) and sell their souls to a banished tyrant who lives in a disease-infested landfill and goes by many mysterious identities including Cheeto Benito, Orange Anus, Sack of Gilded Lunchmeat, Angry Creamsicle, Tangerine-Tinted Trash-Can Fire, Captain Outrageous, Decomposing Jack O’Lantern, Narcissistic Human Airhorn, Boiled Ham in a Wig, and Financially Embattled Thousandaire. He plots to colonize the Earth (which he desires to rename Donland), marry many suitable brides from eastern European nations and replenish his family, replacing his children whose brains have been fried by their repeatedly attempting to avoid litigation.

Alexander Skarsgård, Millie Bobby Brown, Brian Tyree Henry and Eiza Gonzalez reprise their roles from Godzilla vs. Kong in the new production.

In an homage to past Godzilla productions, Raymond Burr, who played reporter Steve Martin in the Americanized version of the original 1954 film, appears colorized at the end of Godzilla and Kong vs. the GOP, saying the last line of that classic movie: “The monster was gone. The whole world could wake up and live again.”

But in the yet-to-be-released Warner Bros. flick, a stand-in for the late Nick Adams, who appeared in Invasion of Astro-Monster, the sixth film in the Godzilla series, says to Burr, “Which one? Godzilla or King Kong?”

And as the screen fades to black, we hear Burr say, “No, schmuck. I’m talking about the Orange Slug.”

  1. Very clever. It took a little time but I figured out all the slimy creatures. Reminds me of a Lowitt Olympic classic: his faux German-sounding venues and events
