Aw, couldn't you guys do an encore of Tokyo Scope 3 on Saturday night after Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla? Kind of makes it unworkable for out of towners to have that on a different date from the movies. :(

The event and all of the prints were arranged through Toho (VIZ has considerable muscle being a pat of the Shogakukan publishing juggernaut). I just found out last night before the talk show, that VIZ thought that they were getting subtitled prints (and advertised the screenings as such), but all they got from Toho were the English dubbed versions... Still, it should be fun. I heard that the print of MEGALON is going to be screened in LA sometime in the next month. I'll try to find out more about this.
