Godzilla, Kong, Gamera & Co.: The Kaiju Mega-Thread
- Thread starter Kai "the spy"
- Start date
If it is, I'd like to see it set in the early 60's.
Toho's official Godzilla YT channel has uploaded the NYCC panel with Takashi Yamazaki:
NYCC, obviously, was back in early October, so it doesn't have anything on the sequel.

Okay, so the Justice League will have two crossovers with the MonsterVerse Godzilla. Marvel OTOH went straight to Toho:

Criterion has gotten the rights to the Heisei series - First up Godzilla vs. Biollante coming in March.
Those films are already on their streaming service (assuming JustWatch has the correct information).
I'll have to check that out. Either way, this is going to be a physical release; a two disc 4K/Blue Ray set with deleted scenes, test footage and commentary tracks.
I believe they only had the first 4 of the Heisei Era on streaming.
Putting it on bluray is a pretty big deal. Will be tons of extras. And of course they'll probably have the Japanese and US versions of the films.
I don't know if this has been mentioned, but I was at my local Barnes & Noble this morning, and as I was browsing through the Science Fiction section I stumbled across the novelization of 'Godzilla' and 'Godzilla Raids Again' by Shigera Kayama translated from the original Japanese editions from 1954.
I could have sworn Criterion released a big set with all of the Showa and Heisei era movies back a while ago. Maybe it was just the Showa movies.
On my to read list. Has anyone here read it yet?
I'm torn. I want to purchase it to show Criterion that there's interest in the Heisei series, but at the same time, I don't want there to be a big box set collection down the line which renders individual titles redundant. Similar to what happened with the first Godzilla release from Criterion. They put out a two disc Special Edition of the first movie, only to have all of those features ported over to the Box Set that came out a couple of years later. I still have the original because of the artwork and the essays, but the Special Features on the disc are the same.
A while ago, IDW announced several new Godzilla comics which would share the same universe. Personally I thought the anthology approach of recent years worked better for Godzilla than the serialized comics that came before, but I'm gonna check the new books out with an open mind.
Well, one of the new books that were announced was a Godzilla VS America anthology, in which the Big G stomps through major US cities, created by writers and artists from the respective city.
April will see the release of Godzilla VS Los Angeles by Dave Baker, and IDW has pledged that all proceeds from the issue will be donated to BINC to aid local comic shops hit by the wildfires.

Wow, that seems poorly timed, even with the donations.
