I wonder if they (Toho) intended to use that stock footage from the beginning or if All Monsters Attack was on a low budget where they couldn't film alot of new monster footage

From the IMDB:

Quote:
 
Eiji Tsuburaya was bedridden during production, so Ishirô Honda took over the effects direction, which resulted in limited special effects work and stock footage. Tsuburaya did not work on the film at all, aside from the stock footage, but is credited out of respect


Eiji Tsuburaya passed away in 1970. I've read that he was not in the best of shape, physically, in the months leading up to his death.

Could you imagine what the Godzilla movies that were made after he passed away would've been like if he had remained in good health and lived? I often wondered about that.

Now that's strange. It's listed right in Special Features when you click the Japanese version of the film.

Not on my copy it isn't. confused

I went back, Russ, and checked. Under the English language menu option I get:

-Richard Pusateri's audio commentary
-Ishiro Honda biography
-poster slide show
-image gallery

Under the Japanese language menu option I get:

-Ishiro Honda biography
-poster slide show
-image gallery

No original Japanese trailer.


very angry

I sent Classic Media an email about this about a week ago. I haven't heard back from them. I might PM Keith Aiken at the ATARI Godzilla forums and ask him about this. confused

I got my copy from Amazon. I'm guessing that Amazon has legit copies and some retail outlets has copies with the missing trailer?

I'd probably get in touch with CM and find out what happened. Did they choose to release AMA without the trailer in the boxset and include the trailer with the April releases?

None of the CM Godzilla Raids Again discs has the japanese trailer for it. (as far as I know)

I was thinking the same thing. I have two(2) copies of Classic Media's "The Godzilla Collection" box sets. I did not buy All Monsters Attack(or TOMG) as single title discs.

I sent Keith Aiken, founder of the website SciFi Japan, a PM at the ATARI Godzilla forums. He replied:

"Regarding the trailer for ALL MONSTERS ATTACK (and TERROR OF MG)... basically, somebody goofed. Classic Media sent me the box set very shortly before they went on sale last Nov, and as soon as I looked at the last two discs I noticed the trailers were missing. I contacted the producer in charge of the DVDs and suggested that the trailers be added when the DVDs were released separately or that the packaging be corrected so at least nothing is being promised that's not on the DVDs...if it's advertised it should be on there.

I haven't seen the single versions that were released last month, but according to some posts on MZ the DVDs now have the trailers. Other people are reporting they didn't get the trailers so I think CM sold off the remaining stock from last year then corrected the problem on the second pressing.

I'll talk to CM this week and see if I can get a definitive answer."


So it does appear to be an error on the part of Classic Media. I'm not going to buy another DVD of All Monsters Attack just to have this trailer. ;)
