Thanks. I don't want to be a nag but they could also use one of those bridging links between the Medical Films and Medical TV genre pages.

I also happened to notice that we seem to have duplicate genre pages as well. There's one for Music and Musical in the Film Genre Categories. Is there a big difference between them or it is just an error in duplicating categories?

I also see that there's the Kaiju and Giant Monsters categories in the Film Genre Categories as well. Clicking on the Giant Monsters link simply redirects you to the Kaiju category as there isn't anything in the Giant Monsters. This is something that I have beent thinking about as there does seem to be a bit of a difference between kaijus and giant monsters.

I personally consider the whole Godzilla and Gamera sized and Japanese-themed creatures to be kaijus while there are also movies such as Jaws or Jurassic Park which have gigantic animals and creatures. King Kong seems to fall into the Giant Monsters category as well.

Then there are the mythologically based monsters as well like krakens, dragons, or giants (or mutated humans who become giants like "Attack of the 50 Foot Tall Woman" again seem to sort of fall more into the Giant Monsters category.

I think that Godzilla and Gamera and their ilk should be considered kaijus, they do call them that in Japan. Pacific Rim is a movie that appears to be a direct homage to them so it should fall into that genre as well but I think unless for some overwhelming reason, all of the others should fall under the Giant Monster label. Opinions? Thoughts? Let me know.
