Sure I get that for younger fans, but for older fans such as myself. I had seen pretty much every showa film on TV (except DAM..I had to try for years to try and track that down)...and when ADV finally released their VHS in 1999, I was disappointed. Though I had heard the Toho international dub as it had started playing on sci-fi channel a couple years prior to this...I was really hoping the VHS release would be the AIP dub...and of course every subsequent release was kind of a let down.
Sure I have them all, on VHS, DVD, and now Blu-Ray. But is it because I have lived so long, and just want the dubs I grew up with, that I am spoiled? --Believe me, I'm not taking anything away from the younger fans, I'm glad they are excited, and they should be. I am glad Kraken is releasing these films, and hope they keep doing so, because I'll keep purchasing them. But I just hope that my minimal enthusiasm, compared to a younger fans extreme enthusiasm isn't construed as being spoiled just because a release doesn't offer something I just happen to be old enough to remember fondly.
There are no more good TV Shows, only ones that haven't disappointed me yet.
