There's an unpolished quality to "Bambi Meets Godzilla" - the rough draft animation and the hiss-and-pop sound - that keeps your eyes glued until the very end. And by then you realize that the (brilliant) joke is that it's all just series of credits; each more absurd than the last. Something does really happen in this short and there is an actual story to it (threadbare though it is), but it's all about the gag ending. I don't know who Marv Newland is, but I love the guy's sense of humor. And maybe this speaks to a sadistic streak in me, but the idea of Godzilla actually meeting Bambi is an amusing one. How could you not love this?8/10

Yes, it is kind of sad how one sided the contest ends up being. Faster than most of the fights Godzilla has been in over the years. I mean you think the fight he had with the American version of Godzilla in "Final Wars" was fast and one sided the outcome of this epic clash is even more so. In fact one would have expected a super powerful clash between the two, but this mega battle we have all been waiting for never really materializes. I was expecting something special along the lines of Godzilla's matches with King Gidorah or other monsters, but it is over before you realize it has begun. Perhaps if only the one who gets wiped out would have trained a bit more, or perhaps if he only noticed his surroundings a little more than he did, he could have perhaps did some super dodge move and stayed in the fight a little longer. It is hard to contain myself and not reveal to you the reader the winner of this fight as I am sure your are thinking it could go either way, but let me tell you, it is most certainly a one sided contest. Perhaps the loser could get a rematch after his stay at the morgue.

God Bless Mr. Sweeney wherever you are! My 4th Grade Teacher Mr. Sweeney told us the plot for "Bambi Meets Godzilla" and we HAD to see it!!! Eventually we raised money by showing afterschool movies and our box office attraction was "Bambi meets Godzilla!" It was a proud day for this elementary school in Huntington, Long Island near Greenlawn. The school is gone, but Bambi, Godzilla and colorful memories remain!The soundtrack starts off with Rosinni's "Willen Tell" Overture and concludes with the Beatles's "A Day in the Life" final note. We all know the tragic aftermath!!!I did see an unauthorized sequel at a student show at Florida State University Moore Auditorium. They presented "Bambi's Revenge" This sequel featured Bambi giving "Godzilla" a hot foot and we actually see the giant lizard's face. Eventually 'Zilla hops around on one foot when he accidentally stomps on Bambi for another time.
