I paid $20 for my copy of the Criterion Godzilla set but it's easily worth the SRP. Easily.

As for the whole "Criterion" issue, I'll be the first to admit that the price has held me back on at least a couple of their release's (I'd love to have "Robinson Crusoe on Mars", but I just can't justify the price) but if you are truly interested in "bang for the buck", they can't be beat. Hell, just the corrected translation and the wonderful commentary by Mr. Kalat make this a must own and worth every penny. Not to mention the BEAUTIFUL restoration job done and all the other extras. Personally, I've had copies of this film starting with the old "King of the Monsters" Vestron video disc through at least 2 VHS bootleg copies, the Scimitar release, and Classic Media's version, and Criterion's blows them all away. My question is, if redundancy is an issue, why bother getting anything beyond the old VHS or early boots? Yeah, I'll be the first to say that if it's a movie that you truly like, you can't get better than a Criterion release,imo.

I interpret it as more Media Blasters jerking around, and not as good news really at all.

A Media Blasters release is like a Guillermo Del Toro project. I'll believe it when I'm physically watching it.

I dont believe a word of it either. However... Since I already have the "oops" edition of Megalon, a BRD really has no appeal to me. But...if it meant Toho finally approved the commentary, then I would only hope it would bring us closer to approval of Ed G's commentary for Biollante.
There are no more good TV Shows, only ones that haven't disappointed me yet.

Any update on the status of the Megalon BD? I still have it preordered.
