Showa Era Toho Godzilla/Kaiju Films Potentially Coming from Criterion

[demonknight]

So, Criterion now has streaming rights to all but 4 of the original Godzilla series, as well as Rodan & War of the Gargantuas, so that could bode well for a potential box set down the road. As not the biggest fan of the films, I still hope they are put out so the fans can have them. And who better than the company who put the first film out in all of its glory?

The catch? They've all got Criterion logos on their thumbnails.





I don't know a whole lot about how Criterion does their business, do they always plaster "The Criterion Collection" over films they only have streaming rights to?

Or...are we looking at a possible set of future releases?
