1956 magazine article on GKOTM

Postby Baradagi » Thu May 12, 2005 9:07 pm

I received a Motion Picture Exhibitor magazine a few days ago from May of 1956 that has a very interesting article on Godzilla, King of the DTV Monsters! I was thinking about posting a scan of it, however, due to the ridiculous animosity GFans have of the Americanized (or any foreign) versions in this fandom, I’m not even going to bother. I just wanted to say that it was a fantastic read!

There's no "ridiculous animosity"... just go ahead an post it, I'm sure people would appreciate it.

Unless perhaps there is no article, hm? :wink: :P

Well, I for one feel absolutely NO animosity to the Americanized versions of the movies, infact, I MUCH prefer the versions I grew up watching to the "original" versions and would really like to get to read the article...so as far as I'm concerned, post and scan away! :wink:

I much prefer the Originals over the Americanized versions but the Burr movies hold a special place in my heart :D .
