Looking forward to eventually getting this and Megalon. Too bad there's still no signs of Biollante or G '85 hitting the R1/blu-ray scene.

Having watched Destroy All Monsters(1968) this afternoon(the AIP dubbed version of the Mediablasters release), I submit these continuing observations and criticisms for the inspection of members here:

1. anyone notice that the hairstyle for the character "Kyoko Manabe" changes after the Killaaks place her under their control? Her hairstyle reverts back when she is freed from the aliens mind control later in the film. It also dawned on me that the actress who played this character IMO is a hottie. winky

2. some of the best pyrotechnic effects are IMO featured in scenes not including the giant monsters. I'm referring to the final moon battle between the Moonlight SY-3 crew and the Killaaks. thumbz up

3. why on Earth would the Kilaaks reveal the location of their underground base of operations to the local military and scientists tasked with stopping them immediately after the monsters have attacked and demolished Tokyo? huh?

4. the audio effects for the firearms employed by the "special police" sounded silly

5. anyone notice, during the scene where larval Mothra appears out of the subway station while other monsters are attacking Tokyo, that there is absolutely nothing under this creature? Most of its body is revealed as it slithers out of the subway station but nothing is underneath it. loco2

6. my favorite part of the main monster attack sequence on Tokyo is absolutely Godzilla, who looks great thundering about between the buildings as he trashes them, rockets and artillery fire exploding around the monster thumbz up

7. the narration by smooth voiced Norman Rose at the beginning of the film thumbz up

This is an ok film, but not a great one. For me personally, everything good about it was overshadowed by at least one other ridiculous element. First off, I've always been kind of meh about the alien-invasion plot. I did not like Akira Kubo in this film. It was like he tried way too hard to be serious. Which is crazy, because in Matango, he was awesome playing a serious role. He just looked like a generic dumb hero in this film. Jun Tazaki was another disappointment to me. He was just kind of along for the ride through the whole thing; not assertive and gruff like he is in most of the films I've seen him in. To shorten it down a bit, I thought the acting was one of the weakest points of the film. The film's score wasn't very special either. The battle scene music and the intro were good, but it wasn't very moving. Why they played King Ghidorah's theme music when the missiles were being readied at Mt. Fuji I don't know, but it seemed out of place without Ghidorah actually being there. Blahh! I could go on and on, but I'd probably get blue in the face.

Buy the DVD/Blu-Ray. I'm going to buy it. It's a cool movie, I just don't think its great.

The Blu-Ray is still missing in action eh? I'm glad I put this off and decided to wait until next year to buy it, otherwise I'd be getting a little frustrated and anxious by now with all the delays for this and GvsM. If the Biollante film is ever released, I won't be as patient with that, but the latest I heard was that it was still in licensing hell so I wonder if blu-ray will have gone the way of the dinosaurs by the time they get a company who can license and release it.

Isn't the North American home video rights to Godzilla Vs Biollante(1989) owned by Miramax? Miramax is itself owned by Walt Disney. From what I have read about a future R1 DVD release of this movie it will likely not happen anytime soon because it's simply not considered a money making title by Miramax(and Disney).

Josh, invest in a multi region or code free DVD player and you can buy the Region 3 DVD of this film from DDDHouse.com(which has English subtitles).

Got to watch DAM today, video was pretty damn good if you ask me. I have the old DVD released by ADV and there is no comparison between the two. I had the Japanese audio playing so I haven't listened to the English audio, the subtitles seemed pretty accurate but I'm not an expert. Overall I'm really got I got this on Blu-Ray and now I wish the rest of the Godzilla movies were released on Blu-Ray.

Echo Bridge currently owns the rights. Disney no longer has the titles. Buena Vista is out, and the titles were split between Echo Bridge (the Halloween films and the Hellraiser films) and Lionsgate (Tarantino's PULP FICTION and JACKIE BROWN, the SCREAM trilogy). Echo Bridge owns Biollante and it has been said that they are looking for a print to use of the film.

Topic: Evan, let me know when you get around to watching the DAM DVD I sent you. I'm just curious as to whether you have pixelation issues on it like I did.

What it seems to me is that Echo Bridge is - for their releases - not actualy searching out prints but rather transfering video from one DVD to another. For example, instead of using an actual celluloid print of HALLOWEEN H20, they just rip the film off of the old Buena Vista DVD and burn that onto a DVD. Other theories given by some individuals that this is just Echo Bridge's unlucky possition with the titles in that they don't have access or prints and that things like special features from past releases aren't usable due to legal matters, but I claim BS. Echo Bridge's releases are the cheapest you can get. Anamorphic widescreen with the worst edge enhancement you have seen, lack of special features, audio, and subtitle options, their DVDs are moot. I own one of their products and have seen many reviews of many others. Sad they own the rights to alot of the asian films which Miramax owned (a lot of the Jackie Chan films), and a lot of the Hellraiser/Children of the Corn titles. It's all BS. They are releasing titles at a fast rate as the months go by, they will eventualy get Biollante and I wouldn't doubt it that they will digitaly crop out the black bars of the HBO VHS tape and call that anamorphic widescreen.

And as for the DAM DVD Lee, I didn't notice any pixelation. Then again, I got to wonder if such would show up on my television. Sure, mine is widescreen but sadly it is 720p definition (it's almost 4 years old).

You're sad that your TV can display a hi def resolution like 720p? There are still a lot of people who can only afford to own TVs with standard def(480p) capability.

720p, 1080p and 1080i are considered high definition resolutions.

480p and 480i are considered standard definition.

Lee, I would like to know your opinion of this post Stuart Galbraith the IV's post on Tohokingdom quite recently.

"Stuart Galbraith here – After perusing this thread and my eyes having finally stopped rolling, I feel compelled to address some – not all, but some – of the remarks concerning Media Blasters’ release of DESTROY ALL MONSTERS and GODZILLA VS. MEGALON as well as, peripherally, Criterion’s GODZILLA.

What it all boils down to is this: This endless bellyaching about everything and everything by some on this forum long ago passed the point of being merely mildly irritating and instead has been thrust headlong into the Kingdom of Wackyland, a total disconnect from all reason.

Clearly, no amount of time, money, and effort will please some of you. Others before me, having explained quite well a) the delicate and often absurd tightrope walked by any entity foolish enough to license from a company as obscenely and infamously difficult, greedy, and arbitrary as Toho; b) the marginally commercial – at best – nature of releasing classic kaiju eiga films to DVD and Blu-ray in today’s market, titles destined to sell, maybe, 1/50,000 as many units as TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON; and c) what you can do to maximize your viewing experience with regards to an admittedly imperfect DESTROY ALL MONSTERS, the best and only HD transfer Toho allowed Media Blasters access to. (Thanks, Toho.)

Some of you – and you know to whom I’m speaking – are less patient than my four-year-old daughter, demanding instant and, ultimately, insatiable gratification. (Actually, I’ve never seen my four-year-old respond like some of you. She’s never formed a boycott page on Facebook when she didn’t immediately get exactly what she wanted. At least I don’t think she has.)

Your DVD order is delayed a few weeks? My God, the world is coming to an end! You are, of course, entitled to your opinion about the delays, the transfer, the audio, et. al., but since you’ve already made that opinion infinitely clear to the rest of us over-and-over again ad nauseum – Is there anything you’ve not complained about? Perhaps the FBI warnings aren’t to your liking, either? – Please shut up so that the rest of us can have a serious conversion about the pros and cons of these and other DVDs and Blu-rays.

Multiple times both Media Blasters and Criterion were ready to cancel these projects outright, partly due to constant fan-boy bitching and interference. I don’t blame them.

As for my own commentary tracks, you can like them or not. If listening to new information about actors many of us have been wondering about for decades bores you, and if all you’re interested in is minutiae about rubber suits, miniatures and nothing else, don’t listen to David Kalet’s commentary on GODZILLA or the one Steve and I did for MEGALON. I’m telling you now: save yourself some grief. All of us, and that includes Ed Godziszewski as well, have broader interests than that, and strive to put these films into cultural/historical/industrial/cinematic context for a wide range of listeners, not just the hardcore Godzilla geek. I for one am quite happy with all the commentaries I’ve been lucky enough to be associated with.

And as for the most arcane complaints about these discs generally, unless you’ve actually done this work yourself, or your name happens to be Bill Ferguson – who, as far as I know, is the only “fan” who put up his own hard-earned dough to license, produce, and distribute kaiju eiga titles himself, sparing no expense to “please the fans” (and taking a huge financial bath for all his trouble) – then you really aren’t in a position to know better.

You don’t like these DVDs and Blu-rays, by all means treat yourself to nth-generation bootleg.

On the other hand, I’m glad so many of you are enjoying DESTROY ALL MONSTERS and I think you’ll be quite pleased with MEGALON, too. Steve Ryfle and I worked very hard to make the commentary as interesting and entertaining as possible."

thumbz up

Overall I sympathize and generally agree with Stuart Galbraith IV's comments and his obvious disdain for the "fandom" nit picking, and I do think the vast majority of it IS nit picking, Evan.

In no way am I suggesting that there shouldn't be discussion, including reasonable questions, among those of us who purchase or plan to purchase these kaiju movie DVDs. I am always for that.

Here's a link to this post by Stuart Galbraith IV at TK: http://www.tohokingdom.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5516&start=1125

TK member "Chris55" makes a point that Mr. Galbraith's rant is unnecessary and that Mr. Galbraith could have posted his thoughts on fan criticism of the DAM DVD release(by Mediablasters) differently and in a more constructive fashion. I agree with Chris here but I also don't find Galbraith's post "insulting"(as a few TK members mentioned). I can see how Galbraith's post might rub some people the wrong way.

I was wondering when someone would say something about this. Ed Godzizewski made a comment like that some time ago, and the result was not far from the same. It's hard to stomach when someobody like Galbraith, Godzizewski, Ragone, or other largely well-known names make comments like that, simply due to the fact that they are working on a high-profile product and it is in their best interest to keep a certain level of professionalism when discussing said product. That being said, I find it almost sickening what negative comments and speculations have been coming out of the fan community for these releases. All Galbraith did was try to take all the nancys down a peg or two. I wish he'd post more. I can see him getting upset, because we're not just snubbing our noses at him, but everybody involved in these projects; and that's a lot. The reaction to that post was absolutely pathetic. That's all there is to it. The "cute" comments like "I'm seriously upset now, seriously," and "I'm going to go cry now," and "I won't buy the Megalon disc if he's involved" just punctuate how sadly serious some people take this. I try not to take stuff on the net seriously, but some of the responses just made me shake my head. It amazed me at the amount of insecurity in regards to wits and dick size in that discussion. It's funny how we're allowed to sit here daily and nit-pick everything about this genre, but when someone who has actually accomplished something in that genre defends his/her position, people's feelings are irreparably damaged. I hope he has a commentary on the Megalon disc; if for nothing more than to see the reaction; or lack thereof, of all the fans who complained about his rant.

In all fairness, most of the users' comments about that post were limited to one post per person, maybe two. It was really only one user who's insecurity and over-sensitivity about...everything that led that discussion into submission. I stated there, and I firmly stand behind this opinion, that there is a noticeable difference between defending one's position and just making a complete ass out of one's self. People disagree with one another all the time, and some people's minds cannot be changed. It's important to know when to let it go, and this person has a massive problem with that. By that logic, both parties were in the wrong, but in my opinion, when one party resorts to insulting the other, they have lost the argument.

That was not the best way for Ed or Stuart to convey their feelings. But it didn't bother me one bit, because I see where they're coming from, to a certain extent. Page upon page of bitching and moaning about a non-one-hundred percent perfect product is a slap to their face. Why they are allowed to take it seriously is this: They put a lot more work into it than us, and no matter what they do, they can't win. Some of these people act like the negative aspect of this release were put there on purpose. Comments like "How they ---- to all the other films but screwed up the colors/whatever else is beyond me" or "why didn't they use --- materials?" aren't legitimate questions to me; they're subtle shots from people who think they know better. Well, if you know better, COMMUNICATE WITH THEM. Instead of showboating your self-proclaimed superiority among fans, attempt to put your talents to good use. From what I understand, Toho was the one pulling the strings, and we're damn lucky to get what we did.

I took another longer look at the thread and noticed that the one getting upset about it was one person, still I'm surprised that there is someone who is sensitive over there... personally I wouldn't recommend TK for a sensitive person for reasons we have already talked about. winky

That was really a rhetorical question, but thanks anyway. big grin

And as for being sensitive, I understand when someone feels strongly about something, but that was pathetic, and it still is. I might be acting like a jerk, but I wish he'd leave. Everybody has a right to prove their point; I like arguing my point, but when it gets nasty and the argument is just a back-and-forth, it's time to be the bigger man and take a walk. This guy doesn't seem to know how. I could go on for days how annoying he is, but that's against the rules here. I pretty much stepped over the line as it is.

On topic, are the extras on the Blu-ray any different than the DVD?

I wonder if that's included on the disc? I've seen that before, and it looks pretty neat. I heard someone say that it was just Nakajima playing around; that it was not an actual deleted scene. But if that was true, how did it find it's way into the public eye?
