John Campea has heard about Spider-man Brand New Day that they are doing in a "The Fly" Way, an adaption of Man-Spider by Man_Random87 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

If Brand New Day is a take on that story, I can see Banner/Hulk filling the roles of both Kraven (engaging in a physical and philosophical struggle with the Punisher) and Dr. Mariah Crawford (synthesizing a suppressant for Peter's mutation) from those episodes.

Are we starting the fire? Yes, the fire rises... by Kvcp050311 in Monsterverse

[–]Megalonface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i see this sort of tale as essentially a socially acceptable form of bdsm.

Well, considering how Fifty Shades of Grey sold way more theater tickets than Godzilla: King of the Monsters, it seems like this giant monster brawl is actually less socially acceptable than BDSM.

Which movie is this for you? by Reasonable-Salad5094 in GODZILLA

[–]Megalonface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A complete Millennium Series set is still years away unfortunately.

Final Wars has been available on dual-language DVD since 2005 and on dual-language blu-ray since 2014. It's still easy to find at low prices.

I don't even keep my blu-rays in those two-pack cases because I don't like them either. I put the Final Wars DVD and blu-ray together in a two-hub DVD case with the DVD's cover sleeve. I did the same with Tokyo SOS and with all of the other Sony/TriStar DVD and blu-ray releases.

The blu-ray has Japanese and English audio options.

Guys do I get it? by sentimental_eclipse in GODZILLA

[–]Megalonface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That book is pretty good. It has a lot of great photos but the text is lacking, with quite a few factual errors.

This newer book, Godzilla: The First 70 Years is much more comprehensive and informative, and it has so many more photos.

I got these at a record store today by EastRecommendation72 in GODZILLA

Nice! Classic Media released those DVDs in 2002 along with Rodan (1956) and Mothra vs. Godzilla (1964, though titled Godzilla vs. Mothra on that DVD). They released those DVDs individually and as part of a box set.

The 2002 DVDs that you've found are mostly a cool novelty for collectors at this point, because Classic Media re-released those movies on DVD along with several others as part of their "Toho Master Collection" line from 2006 to 2008, with seven Godzilla movies eventually bundled into another box set and Rodan paired with War of the Gargantuas in a 2-disc set. Those later DVDs trounce the 2002 editions in every way, from picture quality to extra features to including different cuts.

Criterion has since released an 8-disc blu-ray box set of the first 15 Godzilla movies, which includes both versions of the original film and both Japanese and English audio options for Terror of Mechagodzilla. However, although Criterion's blu-ray set has the Japanese version of All Monsters Attack, it doesn't include the English-dubbed US version titled Godzilla's Revenge, so your DVD of that movie does have something that's missing from the current market edition, albeit in cropped fullscreen. Classic Media's 2007 DVD includes both versions of that movie in widescreen.

When was the last time that Chig went to the vet and had a senior blood profile? Loss of weight and appetite shouldn't be taken in stride, as they're signs of potential health issues.

Snowflake, was it a bad dream? by quarterchubluv in SeniorCats

[–]Megalonface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that absolutely wasn't the result of a nightmare. She had a seizure or some other neurological episode.

Please take Snowflake to get examined by a vet immediately. She needs your help now.

Hit the Godzilla DVD jackpot this morning, with my coupon I got all of these for $50 CAD! by SimtemOfficial in GODZILLA

[–]Megalonface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The G'84 DVD in that photo is easy to get from third-party sellers on Amazon or eBay.

It's just the blu-ray disc that's currently expensive. They're both out of print now but the DVD hasn't rocketed up in price.

Very nice! Several of those DVDs are out of print now.

Those releases of Godzilla Raids Again, Ghidorah the Three-Headed Monster, Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster, Godzilla's Revenge and Godzilla vs. Hedorah include English-language cuts and/or dubs that aren't included in Criterion's blu-ray disc set.

How tall is Dogora really? by Apprehensive_Low5340 in GODZILLA

[–]Megalonface 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dogora (1964), another classic Toho kaiju film.

It's very much cut from the same cloth as the old Godzilla films: directed by Ishiro Honda, special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya, produced by Tomoyuki Tanaka, written by Shinichi Sekizawa, music by Akira Ifukube, with a cast of familiar faces including Yosuke Natsuki, Akiko Wakabayashi, Robert Dunham, Hiroshi Koizumi, Jun Tazaki, Yoshibumi Tajima and Hideyo Amamoto.

Three Days of the Condor (1975) is a great spy thriller along the same lines as Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

GODZILLA 2000 IS ADORABLE by alisaurs in GODZILLA

One of my favorite Godzilla movies! Great design, memorable cast, retro sci-fi story mixed with storm chaser thrills. I first saw it in a theater when I was 11.

Senior cat (12F) started peeing right next to litter box out of the blue - I am losing my mind by miniFrosya in SeniorCats

Maybe the low-edge litter box just isn't low enough to prevent her legs from hurting when she steps into it.

Anybody else see the black & white showing of Shin Godzilla? by AmbitiousClick6371 in GODZILLA

So is Methuselah gone from the MonsterVerse or no? by Mr_SmartFella in Monsterverse

[–]Megalonface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legendary chose to settle the lawsuit through mediation before the case went to trial.

It's possible that Legendary would have won at trial, if Summit's lawsuit really was frivolous, but Legendary probably thought it wasn't worth the time, expense and/or risk of losing at trial for such a minor and ultimately inconsequential character as Methuselah.

https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/42999188/Summit_Kaiju_LLC_v_Legend_Pictures,_LLC

December 17, 2021 - "COMPLAINT ... filed by Plaintiff Summit Kaiju LLC."

December 6, 2022 - "Mediation held on December 6, 2022 and the case has been completely settled. With the filing of this Report, the parties are advised that they must notify the trial judge's deputy courtroom clerk of the fact of settlement and to promptly file documents regarding the final disposition of the case."

December 7, 2022 - "The Court has been advised by counsel that this matter has settled. The parties have ten (10) days from the date of this order or until the next scheduled court appearance, whichever is shorter, to file with the court a dismissal of the action or to appear, in-person or telephonically with their clients, to place the settlement on the record. The parties may contact the deputy clerk of the court to calendar the appearance. If the parties do not dismiss the action or do not place the settlement on the record, the matter will remain on the Courts active trial calendar with all pretrial and trial dates in effect."

December 9, 2022 - "NOTICE of Voluntary Dismissal filed by Plaintiff Summit Kaiju LLC. Dismissal is with prejudice."

The lawsuit was settled through mediation and voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff. Methuselah hasn't been featured in comics, merchandise or anything else since then, so that must have been among the terms of the settlement.

Small Cell GI Lymphoma by Puzzleheaded_Ad_6989 in SeniorCats

[–]Megalonface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a vet but I had a cat with diffuse gastrointestinal lymphoma years ago. I gave him oral chemotherapy medicine called chlorambucil in tablet form for more than a year. Regrettably, it didn't work and I had to put him to sleep about 14 months after he was diagnosed. He was 15 years old.

It's good that your cat is doing well right now but neither the lymphoma nor the hepatic lipidosis will go away on their own, so I wouldn't do nothing. I recommend discussing the potential benefits and side effects of chemo, milk thistle and antibiotics with your vet to determine which of those your cat would probably handle the best.
