Welcome to MONSTERLAND FORUMS! We are a casual and friendly online community of movie fans who like to talk about giant monsters, horror and sci-fi in cinema, on television and on Blu Ray/DVD.

For those of you who like making art, writing stories and creating videos, our community includes a forum for these submissions as well. Check out our main index page and other board forums! Anyone is welcome to join our community!

MONSTERLAND FORUMS was created on January 29, 2006 for the purpose of giving fans of giant monster films and other sci-fi/horror movies a friendly online meeting place to discuss all of their favorite films and other things of interest like video gaming and sports.

MONSTERLAND FORUMS has 180,000 posts. This online community, while over twelve years old, is currently no longer as active as the early years(between 2007-2009). Still, we have a half dozen members who continue to participate here.

For those who enjoy giant monster movies be sure to check out THE MEG, opening in theaters on August 10th, 2018. This film, based on the 1997 book "Meg", written by Steve Alten, features an enormous, 75 foot long Megalodon shark! Other giant monster movies that we fans can look forward to: GODZILLA KING OF THE MONSTERS(in 2019) and GODZILLA VS KONG in 2020! PACIFIC RIM-UPRISING(2018), the sequel to 2013's "Pacific Rim", is about to release to Ultra 4k and Blu Ray. In these movies, 250 foot tall robots defend Earth from an assault of other worldly giant monsters(kaiju).

Why was the video of the widescreen version of Godzilla vs. Cosmic Monster titles taken off of Youtube?
I've read that Toho is cracking down on YouTube to not display these videos hence YouTube may have effected the removal of this clip. The person who posted this clip may have also removed it voluntarily.
Uh oh. shifty eyes

Uh oh
I wouldn't worry about it Crow. The worst that can happen is that YouTube asks you to remove the videos, or they remove them themselves. There was a long topic thread at the ATARI Godzilla threads about YouTube's recent attempts to remove Godzilla movie video clips. Many fans openly questioned Toho's motives. My take on all of this is fairly simple: while I would hope Toho would look the other way regarding these videos, many of them fan made clips, the fact is this company owns the rights to Godzilla and they have the right to request removal of these clips, whether we as fans like it or not.

Ah, k. Thanks. I'd be fine with them just asking me to remove them. I was just worried I'd get shut down completely.

Just that stuff like that gets under my skin. I mean, Baradagi, who is the master of Godzilla in youtube terms had all three english varriations of Godzilla vs. Gigan's title sequence up:

Godzilla on Monster Island
Godzilla vs. Gigan
War of the Monsters (from great brittan)

And toho was mean enough to delete that. I wanted to burn thoe onto disc! Badstards... first you kill everything good about goji and then you kill all records of british and american versions of the 70's films.

I understand your frustration G2K but I can't see Toho allowing people, en masse, to post fan videos of their films, or parts of their films, on YouTube, a form of media that can be viewed by millions of people. Godzilla is their character, and Godzilla films are their property, which must be respected. winky

Yes, I do, but I have purchased none in over four years. I'm not planning on buying anymore either. I own about a dozen(12) DVD-R's and I have subsequently purchased official R1, R2 and R3 DVDs of every DVD-R equivalent disc title.

Practice what you preach...
I do, every day. I started this message board two and a half years ago, of which I have invested countless hours of my own personal time, and with no compensation, to promote horror and sci-fi movies, as well as Godzilla and other Toho films. I continue to invest my time and efforts to facilitate the continuation of this board. I have spent several hundred dollars of my hard earned money buying official Godzilla DVDs for friends as gifts to promote the monster. I have also invested over $1000 in Godzilla collectibles. As far as I'm concerned Toho is getting free advertising from me, G2K, so you'll forgive me if I don't feel the least bit guilty about owning a dozen DVD-R copies of their Region 2 titles. winky

I don't feel bad about buying bootlegs of the films that aren't released on Region 1. It's the only way to get the Japanese versions of Return of Godzilla, Godzilla vs Biollante, Godzilla vs King Ghidorah, Godzilla vs Mothra, Godzilla vs Destoroyah, etc.

When they release good Region 1 versions of the films, then I'd be happy to buy them again.

Here's the Sony released double feature of Godzilla Vs SpaceGodzilla/Godzilla Vs Destoroyah: http://www.amazon.com/Godzilla-vs-SpaceGodzilla-Destoroyah/dp/B00003L9CB

It's Region 1 and both films are presented in 1:85.1 widescreen. I have this disc. The prints of both look fine but the audio option is English language only.

Sony has also released Godzilla Vs Mothra/Godzilla Vs King Ghidorah on a R1 double feature DVD as well but the aspect ratios of both on this disc are 1:33.1 full screen(cropped images), and not their original aspect ratio.

^Nope. US versions. However, on an interesting note, when a Heisie film shows on on encore or stars, the internation print is used, with the sony copyright at the end of the international credits. This happens most with Spacegodzilla and Destroyer...

Yuri, are you referring to the Heisei G films produced from 1991-1995?

Assuming you are the only Sony releases I'm aware of are the double feature R1 discs of Godzilla Vs King Ghidorah/Godzilla Vs Mothra(English language/full screen[1:33.1]) and Godzilla Vs Space Godzilla/Godzilla Vs Destoroyah(English language/widescreen[1:85.1). I'm not sure if the run times for these are identical to the original Toho Region 2's.

Sony has also released, in English language and 1:81.1 widescreen, 1993's Godzilla Vs Mechagodzilla II. The ending has been edited, that is shortened, and with English language credits, which is a shame because the score, and original ending showing G and G Jr. swimming away is, IMO a very moving and satisfying closing sequence, the best IMO of any Godzilla movie. winky

If I had seen your post I probably would not have replied to "Rodan70" as I did. I did not see your post...because at the time I looked at Yuri's post yours was displaying on the previous page.
