Godzilla Minus One 4K UHD (2023)

[0din]

If this sales well, I hope Toho does the same treatment to the other Godzilla 4k scans.
Perhaps even their Kurosawa line-up.. But maybe Criterion could provide better 4k scans?

Text GODZILLA to 866-380-1109 for a 10% and free shipping code!

No wonder I never got a text - the number is 866-308-1109, not 380 lol.

Never got the email with the second code but I used KAIJU15 and it worked. Along with some Paypal credit from digital codes, the total came out to under $35! Couldn't order fast enough.

Freaking F I N A L L Y. I've been wanting to rewatch this since I saw it in theaters in December. I don't have Netflix or I would've watched it that way. I don't love the idea of paying this much for a single movie, but at the same time it's such a good movie and I'd rather get it now instead of waiting for a lesser, stripped down version.

So awesome that it's coming out on 4K too, I was NOT expecting that.

Thanks to everyone posting all the codes and such.

meh. I want it, but basically only having one disc I'd watch (I dont care about a b&w version) with no extra features so a dead disc basically. that sucks. I got a bunch of other stuff I'd rather get at the moment than spend $59 after coupons on something that would take up too much space and only be good for one thing.

[Jas Dadry]

Damn no shipping to the U.K

[jokercard]

Was $55.25 after all coupons for me

Was excited for this, but then I read no English dub included.

And Netflix isn't going to bother to have Toho include it?

They can keep that dubbed BS. Glad that isn’t included.

[RobertR]

It was easy to add an SRT file to the Japanese release to get English subtitles.

[monkeyjb1988]

Oh, HECK YEAH!!! Easy buy for me.

Yeah, it'd be nice if the extras had subtitles, but at least the film will. That's one up on the Japanese release 😄

Netflix has nothing to do with this release.

[Jumbalia23]

The dub was commissioned/produced by Netflix so they probably have exclusive rights to it for now. It's already excluded from all the digital purchase storefronts.

I can forgive people for being confused concerning the English dub. It's not super common (as far as I know) for Netflix to pay for and solely own an English dub of something that they otherwise had no hand in producing, that is also being released on physical disc.

But it would appear that Netflix paid for the dub and that they own it, and part of the agreement with Toho was that Toho allowed Netflix to place their in-house custom dub onto the film.

I also have no interest in the dub, so it doesn't concern me. I mean, I suppose I would always prefer for any disc release to be as complete as possible. I don't know who is a "casual" enough fan of the film that they'd both need the dub but also be aware of a limited edition expensive boxed set.

But I appreciate that the website listing for the set pretty explicitly states what audio and subtitle options are available on it. I wish they'd taken a small amount of extra time to subtitle the extras, but oh well.

And pre ordered

[postmodel]

I want this so bad but the majority of this is, dare I say, useless…I mean I guess I can pop on disc 4 and watch 240 minutes of extras but won’t know what’s being said without subtitles…and I guess I can use the translate feature on my phone to read the booklet…

F*ck.

Guess I’ll probably end up preordering this. It’s so sexy.

[milo bloom]

I said all they had to do was put English subs on the movies and release that big set over here and I'd buy it.

I'm sure there'll be cheaper re-releases down the road, but I'm worried about missing the Minus Color version.

As exciting as this news is, that's probably why I won't order this particular set.

I mean, obviously the movie is the main thing and here's a version with English subtitles finally. (a dubbed version is of no interest to me)

But at that price point, it seems like extra content like the bonus disc and booklet are part of what's being used to justify that cost. And without subs or a translation those things will be of no use to me.

As much as I've been looking forward to this on disc, I just can't bring myself to pay a premium price when the premium content is unusable for me.

I'm just going to have to hold out for a standard release with subtitles.

[Jumbalia23]

For what it's worth, the blog post they put out states that this release is "the only to bundle both the original and black and white versions of the film." So either the 2 versions of the film will release individually, or Minus Color will be exclusive to this set.
