Many moons ago, I grabbed the DVD of this out of a $5 bin.
As long as DVD is a playable format, I won't ever purchase this movie again.

I'm currently happy with my Blu-ray of the film, but if Sony wants to do their 4K Magic on any of the other Godzilla films in their catalog, with improved subtitle translations, I might be interested!

Part of me wants to get the 4K release but then part of me wants to not get it. I mean the movie is "ok" if you don't look at it as a Godzilla film but on the other hand the BD is serving its purpose for me too. Like lhb412 said if Sony wants to do the Toho Godzilla films they have a license to in 4K I'll gladly upgrade to those in a heartbeat.
I will probably upgrade to Godzilla (14) when that gets its 4K release.

Blah....not interested. lol Sony needs to do some more upgrading/improving on their toho godzilla catalog and release those instead. Speaking of which, don't some of the rights to some Heisei films Sony has expire this year?

Could Sony even do 4K releases for the Toho films they have? I would think that Toho themselves would want to do domestic releases first that way Japanese customers don't import.

I thought it was already on 4K? in fact , it was one of the earliest releases, so early, it doesn't even have the standard black 4K/BRD packaging.

I believe that release is not a proper 4k UHD disc. Instead it's merely a regular Blu-ray with a 4k master and no special features to make room for the extra bitrate for the movie. I think there were a few movies released like this, and they were just a stopgap until the UHD spec was finalized.

I, for one, am pumped for this. It'll look great next to my Blufans steelbook, and I'm sure the picture quality will be outstanding.
