wish crap like this would stop coming out so the rights would work out in favor of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 being able to release their Godzilla eps.

 

Give it up Toho. Crow T. Robot is better than your man in rubber suit any day.

Yeah Tom Servo and Crow did make these movies more tolerable

First off, MST3K only did 2 Godzilla movies, neither of which is in this box set. And 1 of the 2 was released on DVD (Godzilla v. Megalon, which is finally getting an actual regular DVD release next Tuesday!). It was quickly recalled, but it was released. The release of the films on DVD has nothing to do with the MSTie versions being released. It has everything to do with Toho not wanting them released.

 

Secondly, Chris Gore there is just a wee bit behind as this set was released in 2007.

 

Thirdly, some of these are really good movies. Especially the original.

 

Finally, never give up hope for the MSTie versions. The 5 Gamera episodes were considered to be just as impossible to release & Shout was able to finally find a way to do it via a *kinda-sorta* end run around Daiei.

The 2007 classic media dvds might have been nice aesthetically, but the discs themselves were mediocre. The picture quality was crap compared to the Sony Godzilla dvds and the American versions of the films were bastardized recreations.

 

I suggest all of you to pick up the upcoming Criterion release of Gojira/Godzilla KOTM. Buy multiple copies if you can, I'm serious! If that release sells enough Criterion might get the rights to the rest of the UPA Godzilla films (The ones classic media released). Criterion actually cares about quality and they would properly restore those Godzilla films.
