Question to Mike S bout "Classic Media" series

Postby GodzFire » Fri Nov 12, 2004 1:14 pm

First off I didn't know if you saw this before, so here is something I posted for you earlier: "I just started to actively take a part in this forum, but on behalf of the "more common G-Fan" I would sincerely like to thank you for what you've done and how hard you have worked in making sure that Sony/Tristar gives their Godzilla DVDs the attention and justice they deserve. You are my saviour, a diamond in the ruff, a becon of hope, a.......hey wait, why did my nose just turn brown?"


Now, here is my question. I just recently discovered that the 5 Godzilla "Classic Media" DVD releases were actually from Sony (I thought Classic Media was a whole differeny company, I feel very stupid :cry: ). Anyway, I was wondering:

A) Does Sony still own the rights to these films

B) Is it true that the five will be re-released using a new print WITH widescreen (I honestly don't care if there are ANY extras, I just want excellent video/audio/language options like the recent 3 Showa releases)

C) If the above is true, would there be a chance that Sony would release a 6 DVD box set along with the rumored Godzilla Vs The Sea Monster

D) Can you keep bugging Sony until they buyout the rights to Godzilla 95 and Godzilla Vs Biollante (not related to topic but damnit I love Biollante!)


Of course any insight you can spare is greatly appreciated, just like all your efforts. :)

Classic Media IS a separate company. Sony only distributes their DVDs. They are not responsible for the transfers, whether the discs are widescreen or pan-and-scan, etc.

Yeah, there have been worse things in a PG movie than a (non sexual) [fake] boob shot. :lol:

One would think Sony could give Classic Media a hand, however I'm sure there's a reason why it already hasn't been done (at least I hope).
