GAMERA FILMS COMING FROM SHOUT FACTORY!?!

Spinning flame-jetted turtles, space birds being chopped up like bologna, kids in shorts screaming for help...the original Gamera series was a strange mix of wacky fun!! The 90's Gamera films set a standard that other kaiju films are measured against! Discuss Gamera films here!!

I'd totally review one of those for you on my site August. :wink: Sure it has nothing to do with Last Airbender, and Paramount might be like wtf, but....:D

I'm starting to get insanely excited for this! In my euphoria I even wrote an article about Gamera for G-Fan, but alas I've heard nothing either way from J.D so I'm begining to think either my work sucked the big one (in which case I would have liked at least a word on why it sucks from J.D) or that you have to be part of a certain circle or group to get anything published in G-Fan...but I digress.. (sorry, had to vent)

Anywho...much kudos in advance to all involved...I too love the art work used to this release...(although I do hope that subsequent releases will be more colorful)

I mean, the features along sell me on this thing, but I love the cover art. The reversibility just made it all the more desirable.

Man, I SO can't wait for this and the rest of the DVDs from the series. I wish Sony treated their Godzilla movies like this. This looks like fantastic stuff. I'll be picking it up on the day of release.
