Jon Mulvaney from the Criterion Collection told Godzilla-Movies.com they and Janus Films have obtained the rights to most of the Showa era Godzilla films and Starz is licensing them. The hope is to make them available for Bluray/DVD releases and potentially the Criterion streaming service with FilmStruck

Godzilla ('54)
Godzilla Raids Again
Godzilla King of the Monsters
Rodan
Mothra vs Godzilla
Ghidorah: The Three Headed Monster
Invasion of Astro-Monster
War of the Gargantuas

Godzilla vs MechaGodzilla
Terror of MechaGodzilla
Yeah I just watched it. Still going with my assumption that the creator was getting no traction with his anime concept so he stuck Godzilla into it.
I'd hoped when a couple other classic Godzilla monsters showed up in the opening montage we'd see more of em and then all you get is generic melty dragon things.
i was so into that godzilla anime when it was announced

It was alright, the animation wasn’t great but I liked some of the concepts
the alien invaders come to defeat/control godzilla get punked too and have to leave with the humans was neat. Going to call it now, the second bigger godzilla isn’t the final godzilla, and it will turn out godzilla is the earth or some nonsense. I too am a little sad it seems to be a world of godzilla spins offs instead of like an ecosystem is different Kaiju species

I'm bringing this thread back from the dead because a) Pacific Rim sequel is out (though I haven't seen it yet) and b) I just found out I could watch all the Showa-era Godzilla and Gamera films online through my local library, so I watched Destroy All Monsters! yesterday. It's bad??? Like, dang. I thought this was one of the highlights of the Showa era but aside from the climactic throwdown at Mt. Fuji and the destruction of Tokyo, it was exceptionally goofy. Half the monsters didn't even do anything!!!
Anyway, when do you think we'll hear something about Godzilla 2? I was doing some digging around and found some leaked, maybe fake but who knows, 3D images of a King Ghidorah model. Looked kinda cool if you want to go track it down.
Destroy All Monsters did have a bit of "let's squeeze every single monster suit we can in even if there's no time for them to do anything". My favorite is Varan who appears once in the last minute or so of the movie just to fly away.
Definitely one of my favorites though, plenty of good monster rampage scenes and the big pile on King Ghidorah is excellent.
After 2021, we're thinking of a potential strategy that [releases] Godzilla movies uninterrupted at a rate of every 2 years, although there is a preference for a yearly pace as well. The future of the series and its forwarding developments are very conscious of the method of "shared universe". Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah, etc. could all share a single world view much like a Marvel movie where Iron Man and the Hulk can crossover with each other.
...Shin Godzilla was a huge hit, but instead of thinking of doing the obvious idea of making a Shin Godzilla 2, instead think about a world that can be used for a long time. I'd rather make a World of Godzilla.
Definitely makes sense that they're not gonna directly follow up on Shin, the ending didn't really leave a lot of room for a sequel that didn't immediately diminish a lot of the threat.
Yeah, I’ve looked that place up before. The way it works is you buy six tickets for like $40, each ticket is good for one game a few minutes long, and you can only use certain tickets on certain games. Pretty expensive for an arcade.

It's two movies I guess.
Though this first one might as well be called "Humans are dumb we barely see Godzilla it's been like 50 minutes god damn it"
THREE movies, I hear.
Which is pretty fucking padding
Rock Band DLC | GW:OttW - arrcd | WLD - Thortar
I was until I saw the production company that was making it.
Those are the two studios I can think of right now that do full CG anime which actually look good in practice
Rock Band DLC | GW:OttW - arrcd | WLD - Thortar
I got used to the animation pretty quick, honestly. The problem is that the art direction is kinda same-y.
The entire post title sequence has nothing to do with Godzilla it's 15 minutes long then it cuts to the word Godzilla and I was like "Oooh no"

Not sure why Kumonga and Mothra decide to shower everyone with jizz afterwards but what do I know
Steam
Rodan, Mothra and the others all came from their own movies but were mostly rebooted when they joined the Godzilla franchise
And Mothra's later solo franchise was standalone from the Godzilla stuff
I'm assuming this means they're gonna try and do other monster movies again (ie a Mothra flick, a Rodan flick, etc.) which I am very down for
Shin Godzilla was one of the most, well, monstrous versions I have ever seen. I am sure the other monsters would be equally terrifying.

That post-credit scene really caught my attention
So what you're saying is that I should watch both of them this weekend???
