Rodan(1956)

[Dragon78]

Now here is one I can't believe they haven't released on blu ray yet.

Any other fans?

[starsteam]

It's with Criterion, who are holding almost every other Ishiro Honda tokusatsu film. I smell a box set coming but who knows when.

[Dragon78]

I hope your right....what other movies are on that list?

[Dragon78]

I wouldn't mind getting the Mysterians, The H-Man, Varan the Unbelievable, Battle In Outer Space, Gorath, Matango, Astragon, Dogora, Frankenstein vs Baragon, War of The Gargantua, and Space Amoeba. I already have Mothra on blu ray.

You're in luck. H-Man and Battle in Outerspace already have English friendly releases.

And that's just U.S.

[Dragon78]

Yeah, I have that second one with both movies but would be fine having them in a bigger collection. Not sure I would want to give up my Mothra one but who knows.

Both of those films and Mothra are with Sony. It's possible Criterion may be able to license them for a multi-pack release, though the demand is pretty low due to the Mill Creek and Eureka releases.

[Dragon78]

Well it is still possible....though Rodan is at the top of my list of live action Japanese movies.

[Dragon78]

So how, when, and where was the first time you saw this movie?

[Dragon78]

Anyone?

When I was young I watched the film on TV (in the 70's-80's). I own the film on DVD but haven't seen it in years. I did recently sell my one sheet and 3-sheet posters and have collected quite a bit of material for the film.

[Dragon78]

I first saw it in the 80's like so many monster movies.

[Dragon78]

Almost a year later and still no news.

[Dragon78]

I wonder what is holding this one up from getting a US blu ray release.
