To Ghidorah2000 and any Godzilla fans:

Ghidorah2000, I dunno if you can tell, but I am also a HUGE Godzilla fan. No not the sh*tty american version. I am talking the true blue Japanesse version. I pretty much every tape. What animation are you looking for?

Also, are there any other Godzilla fans?

ANYTHING made in America, let alone Godzilla (or "Gojira" as it's called in Japan), is quite normal and decent compared to that crazy stuff made in Japan...

Yes, I am a Godzilla fan. I think my favourite is Godzilla VS. King Ghidorah from the 90's.

I've probably seen Godzilla 2000 15 times.

Sayonara.

I like the big fight scene in Godzilla vs. Megagarius. It's got campy comedy (Hide n' seek!) and coolness.

I'm a HUUUUUUUGE Godzilla fan. Been watching them ever scicne I was four. I went to my cousins house and they were watching King Kong vs. Godzilla right in the part where Godzilla was approaching the train at night, I was hooked from then on. Also TNT had a show called MonsterVision hosted by a guy named Joe Bob Briggs, he showed Godzilla movies all the time. (One time they even had an all day Godzilla marathon!)

Nowdays I'm a bigger G-Fan than ever, I post mainly at Monster Zero, the best US G news site and Message Board. I get G-Fan magazine, comic books, have all kinds of Godzilla toys, Godzilla posters, and I own every Godzilla film up to GMK (I'll get the next one in the fall) and Godzilla has even got me into other Japanese fantasy (Gamera, Daimajin, Ultraman)

My favorites Godzilla films are the original series (1954 - 1974) No matter how much time goes by and FX improve there's just nothing that can replace the classics. I love the first two films of the second series (Godzilla1985 and Godzilla vs. Biollante) because of how dark they are. Unfortunately the films didn't do well so the films of the second series became more comic booky. (Not that that isn't good, but their are enough "comic booky" G -films, I think the dark and creepy tone would have been the way to go)

Out of the latest Godzilla films (The Milleneum series) I'd sat GMK was the best one, in the film Godzilla is basically and evil demon that is possesed by the souls of all those who died in WW2. The film is directed by Shusuke Kaneko, the direcor of the recent Gamera trilogy, Gamera 3 is basically the new high-water-mark for what a Japanese Monster movie can be.

BTW, ADV films has recently released all three of the new Gamera films on DVD hears in the US and I highly recomend them to anyone who has expressed an intrest in Japanese giant monsters, especially Gamera 3. You can even buy the first film in the series with an art box to put the other two in, and this is actually cheaper to get then the DVD by itself (A ploy to get you to buy the other movies "Well I have the collectable box, I might as well get the other movies to fill it".) Also, the cheapest I've found the films at is in Best Buy.

The next Godzilla movie will be "Godzilla vs. Mothra vs. Mechagodzilla: Tokyo SOS!" (I love those crazy Japanese titles) and will be a direct sequel to last years Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. That means that this will be the first line of continuity in the latest series of Godzilla movies which have basically been an "Alternate Universe" series up to this point with each film having it's own cintinuity.

And about then American Godzilla, we G fans do not call it Godzilla. It's "GINO"

I found a copy of GMK on Kazaa. It was of poor quality, had no subtitles, and was corupted on several spots, but man..... that movie was so awesome.

I just love that part with the girl in the hospital.

Sayonara.

You have seen Godzilla X Mechagodzilla!? You must tell me, is it any good? So far GMK is my fave Goji movie of all time.

Oh and word up Fellow Goji fans.

Oh you must buy all your Japanese Millenium movies from a guy who goes under the ID of twaintrax. I bought Godzilla Millenium, GMK and Godzilla X Megaguiras from him. These are officially released Toho VCD's from Hong Kong and they are subtitled. The quality is pretty good as well. And here's a scan of the back panel at least. You can see the copyright from Toho and everything, I think.

Some news on Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla vs. Mothra:

Hear's the rumored plot, hasn't been verified, but it looks to be auithentic:

"One year after Mecha's battle with Godzilla there is increasing resentment against MechaGodzilla's rampage and talk of dismantling it. Then a farie shows up begging the Japanese to return the original Godzilla's bones back to sea. Then Godzilla shows up and starts laying waste to Tokyo. Mechagodzilla is still being worked on and so Mothra is called upon to fight against Godzilla until Mechagodzilla is back online."

For those who don't know: in G x MechaG the original Godzilla's bones (from the first movie) were used to create the new Mechagodzilla, and the Godizlla DNA present in Mechagodzilla caused the robot to go on rampage for a while.

Also, a fourth giant monster will make a small cameo in the film.

I'm pretty sure those HK VCD's aren't the real deal. Most HK stuff doesn't have English subtitles.

Well most Illegal VCD's don't have the licensing to sell them. As you can see from the back panel, this is a legitimate copy of the movie with the Toho Copyright, Toho Pictures, INC. Not just any pirated product can just get that slapped onto it. Trust me I know since I have enough booties of other Non-Goji movies to be able to tell the difference.

Every bootleg Godzilla tape/DVD I have has the same thing. It's not hard to scan the real thing and print it.

I'll just ask the supplier from Hong Kong directly then and get to the bottom of this.
