Reddit reviews Godzilla Vs Biollante [Blu-ray]

The audio hiccups, the acceleration and deceleration of the video alongside the aspect ratio really makes this not worth watching, honestly. You'd be better off just spending the $8 it costs to buy the blu ray on Amazon ($5 on DVD) than watching this version of it.

Godzilla vs Megalon $19.99

Destroy All Monsters $18.90

GvM and DAM combo pack 39.99

Godzilla vs Biollante $9.69

Boom!

As for the Japanese KKvG, well there's two things holding that back. First off Universal holds the rights to the US version and Toho holds the rights for the Japanese. Universal would have to buy the rights to Japanese version of the film, which from a bean counter's perspective isn't the greatest investment.

Secondly, From what I recall the footage Toho does have of KKvG kind of sucks ass. I'm fuzzy on the details but there was a fire involved and some of the original film stock burned up. Now the pipedream would be for Universal and Toho to pool resources and take the footage from the US prints and use them and cobble together a better looking cut. Although that's a hell of a pipe dream.

But we are living in a time with two Godzilla series and one which will involve a new rematch with King Kong. Maybe Toho and Universal might think would be prudent to make an ultimate edition by 2020.

Godzilla 1984 and Godzilla vs Biollante are available with subtitles on Amazon.

It was also (mind-blowingly) released on blu-ray over a year ago!

It's not expensive.

Amazon all the way. With the exception of 2014. I got that on Black Friday at Best Buy for $4. Just be on a look out for the [Kraken blu-rays] (https://www.amazon.com/Godzilla-Vs-Gigan-Blu-ray/dp/B00I462XLG/ref=pd_sim_74_7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=Q4NXP3Z44W4ZJK6AP4P4) and [The Toho Godzilla Movies Collection blu-rays] (https://www.amazon.com/Godzilla-Vs-King-Ghidorah-Mothra/dp/B00IQAUO2A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1481679727&sr=8-1&keywords=godzilla+vs+king+ghidorah+blu+ray). The prices seem to jump to higher and lower over time. It's very inconsistent, so I just checked every other day to get the best deals. Lowest they normally around for is little over $7.

For [The Godzilla Collection] (https://www.amazon.com/Godzilla-Collection-Vol-Yuriko-Hoshi/dp/B000VXWK86/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1481679933&sr=1-1&keywords=the+godzilla+collection) I got it used at half price, BUT IT'S ON SALE RIGHT NOW FOR PRIME USERS, SO PICK IT UP.

Godzilla 1998 and 2014 are always cheap. Even without the Black Friday deal, it's still cheap on Amazon.

Godzilla vs. Biollante is tricky. There are multiple sources on Amazon. Make sure you get it from [this one] (https://www.amazon.com/Godzilla-Biollante-Blu-ray-Koji-Takahashi/dp/B00LVZK1LG/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1481680064&sr=1-1&keywords=godzilla+vs+biollante+blu+ray). Cheap as hell.

Then there's Son of Godzilla and Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. These two are extremely hard to come by, but the way I see it, here are your options:

1. Pay for the official Japanes blu-rays (expensive)
   
2. Pay for the official American distributed DVD's (expensive)
   
3. Bootlegs, which is what I went with. Either get it from sumogorilla.com or showavideo.com. I went with sumogorilla, but what you should know is that only DVD's are sold here and they are all in Japanese dub with English subtitles. But from what I hear, showavideo has blu-rays with better quality, however, they cost a little bit more and in order to even view the website, you need to be a member. Sign-up is free, but you can only do so on the last day of a month and the first day of a month. Both websites are reliable.
   
   Last but not least is King Kong vs. Godzilla. Now you can get the official blu-ray on Amazon for a cheap price, but mind you, this doesn't have the Japanese dub, only the English dub. It is for this reason that I purchased it from sumogorilla, seeing as I only intend to watch them in Japanese.
   
   Well, there you have it. Hopefully this will help you on your journey in collecting every Godzilla movie out there. But I'm sure there are other methods of doing so as well, so keep an eye out for any tips and information! As time passes, the prices and sources will as well. But this is how I collected the films.
   
   Good luck!
