I'm very excited to see this news, this must mean that the previous releases sold well. Although I'd love it if Kain's shelf looked pretty, I'll admit that I'm hoping that the American and Japanese versions of G2K are on separate discs And while I have never seen the Mothra trilogy, and have no stinging desire to do so, I'll probably pick up that pack since I'm sure the price will be very reasonable.

I'll throw my vote in for fixed subs on GMK and the international dub for G2K. Is there any word on how many discs the Mothra movies will be on?

I would prefer real subtitles on GMK over releases of both the Japanese version of G2k and the Mothra Trilogy at this point.

Great news. I'll be pre-ordering the Godzilla blu-rays as soon as they go up on Amazon. Not too bothered about the Mothra ones.

It will be interesting to finally see the Japanese cut of G2000, though, based on the old DVD's commentary track, I agree with all of the changes the US cut made in terms of edits. For me, the ultimate version of the film would have the US cut and music, but the Japanese voices. The dub was a little too 'colourful' in places, not to mention the final line that made no sense.

A Godzilla 2000 release with the original Japanese version and English subs?! Awesome news! I've been holding out on picking up any of the previous DVD releases of G2K because they only included the American version (or the Japanese one with no subs), so this is very, very welcome news! I really wasn't expecting Sony's Blu-ray release to include it, but they certainly went the extra mile there, and I'm very, very grateful. I'll be adding that to my collection for sure.

And while I don't have the same desire to pick up the Mothra trilogy, it's still excellent that it's getting a release too, because hey, I might decide to get it one day, and this new release makes that possible. Excellent stuff.

Another reason I want the Japanese version of Godzilla 2000 to have the international dub is so we can know whether the English subtitles are dubtitles or not.

And the main reason I want the international dub included is to hear Rik Thomas.

And hear them say Godziller >_>

Any chance we might get the Sony commentary from the American cut of 2K? If that's included, I'll easily unload my dvd.

Nice. It'd be great if GMK got proper subtitles. If anything deserves them, it's GMK.

Wow! Unlike springs releases, this actually has me excited. Two films (well one all new, and one Japanese version) not previously available in North America. Definitely looking forward to these.

Aside from visuals, is there anything worthwhile to the Mothra trilogy? I know that's a subjective question, but I remember watching the 2nd film years ago and it seemed mostly like a children's movie. Are the stories and quality in any way comparable to the original Mothra film?

With these blus announced, doesn't that just leave the Mothra, Battle in Outer Space, and The H-Man (previously released in the Icons of Sci-Fi: Toho Collection) as the remaining Toho films Sony currently holds?

KPA, if you get the chance could you please check with Sony about blu-ray releases of these 3 titles?

Oh I agree there. And I think the biggest mark of that were those crappy composite shots seen in any Kawakita sfx film from King Ghidorah and on.
