Okay. So what exactly makes the A.I.P. dubs of the Gamera films, better then the Sandy Frank Gamera films?

Well, you don't have to tolerate people's mouths moving for several seconds with no speech to fill it, the voices are more nuanced and sound like human speech (a bad dub for a child is twice as painful on the ear). Not remembering crowd scenes, I'm guessing they lack that pathetic attempt by 1 or 2 persons to add background noise. On a bad note for Guiron, you do get pronunciations like Gweeron and Guy-os (although you may prefer it that way) and you don't get the full Guiron vs. Space Gyaos fight, although the stock footage remains.

And what was up with War of the Monsters pronunciation as "Gam-err-ah"??
My poor son kept asking me, "Isn't his name GAMERA?"
