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!!

LOL! You slay me, Robert! Sorry, but there's nothing to be lightened up on my side (and how dare you invoke a Sgt. Hulka quote?). See? Everyone reads between the lines! :D

And I think there is confusion with preference. If one prefers the original versions then that is wonderful. Getting the new toys is fine and dandy. However, the fact remains that the dubs played a very important part in expanding this genre. Just because some didn’t like the dubs or didn’t grow up with them does not make that analogy a false one in general. Heck, we wouldn’t have this spirited debate on this very board if it weren’t for the dubs!

My argument hasn’t been for you guys to like the dubs, but rather showing some respect, because whether one liked them or not (and many still do), they did indeed put everything on the map here in the U.S. That is not a subjective argument, but rather a factual one!

You can always tell her that WAR OF THE MONSTERS and GAMERA VS. BARUGON are two different films... :P
