So the food chain in the Australian ecology operates something like this: airy teenage girls -> transvestites -> crocodiles -> crocodile dundee -> kaiju -> box jellies.

“Where the Transvesties and Crocodile Dundee fit into this I just don’t know.”

It’s a complicated matter, but the upshot is that the disappearances of all those airy-fairyteenage girls aren’t nearly as inexplicable as they might seem on the surface.

Movies never lie, therefore Australia is part the most suburban place on earth (Neighbours. Home and Away), part an irradiated post nuclear wasteland (you know what I’m talking about) and part a place where airy-fairy teenage girls in long white dresses moon around and then inexplicably dissapear.

Where the Transvesties and Crocodile Dundee fit into this I just don’t know.

…unless the movies have lied to me

I wouldn’t say “lied”. More like “exaggerated just a tad”.

Unless the box jellies are packing Oxygen Destroyers they're not going to be much help against most kaiju I should think. On the other hand, those saltwater crocs are damn near kaiju size themselves...unless the movies have lied to me. But since movies would never lie, that means you have an army of giant crocodiles to guard your continent from kaiju attack. (Even the flying ones, considering how high the crocodiles in movies can jump.)

Our box jellyfish are found in northern tropical waters; Sydney is in comparison sadly unprotected from kaiju attack. Still, as long as Godzilla tries swimming from Japan to Sydney, we should be okay.

That explains why the Xilians teleported the American Godzilla into Australia!

Although, frankly, dying of numerous jellyfish stings would have been a more noble death than the one he got from Godzilla…

(That was supposed to be ten to the ninth. Apparently ^{tags don’t work here.)}

God no, they’re exploding the opry house! Is that really the only way to stop the creature?

(Actually, I bet if a kaiju came ashore near Sydney, it would probably just die of 109 box-jelly stings.)

No one will ever get me to de-lurk. No one.
