Whats this documentry your talking about? The "Rebirth Of An Icon" somebody mentioned earlier? Is it like a full movie or a 10-15 minute dvd extra?

The Rebirth of an Icon is a 30 minute Extra.

Another Bluray update for Walmart exclusive Godzilla 2014.

@Wraith0711:

What GMAN said.  It will be an a featturette exclusive to the Target version of the Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack.  I didn't know it was 30 minutes, though!  Thats pretty awesome!

@Nextgojiraking93:

Now that there is an AWESOME cover?  I'mpretty sure I know the answer here, but there aren't any exclusive features on that version, right?

No idea why there is a question mark after that sentence... :/

Another abysmal review of the Godzilla 2014 Blu-ray...

Unbelievable. -_-

@DANZILLA93 

The walmart exclusive Godzilla 2014 will be the standard edition but it won't have the bonus feature Rebirth of an Icon. Also what's weird on Bluray.com is that Godzilla 2014 has gotten a good review for it's Video and Audio Quality. here the link for the review.http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Godzilla-Blu-ray/78769/ 

Huh!  Thats interesting.  Thanks for sharing!

I'm wondering what they were thinking though.  Here is a shot from one of the trailers...

And here is a Blu-ray screenshot...

There's definitely a difference here, and its pretty drastic.  I still cant wait to get mine tomorrow! :D

Very disappointing to hear that the darkness on the Bluray isn't just something that's being blown out proportion and resolves itself on the television.

The thing is the digital elements for the theatrical release couldn't have been altered for Bluray/DVD unless it was done so on purpose. So for whatever reason this was a conscious decision... How awful... Seems that the only way fans of the film are going to see it as it was originally released is to replay the theatrical experience in their heads.

The theatrical experience wasnt that good in my opinion.

Alright, so I just got the target exclusive Blu-Ray and took a quick peak at the battle/night scenes.

I must say, there's nothing particularly wrong with them. They are a bit darker than the Blu-Ray screencaps released a while back, but they're much brighter than the Digital release. You can definitely see the battle in full detail; that part is certain.

What I'm kind of upset about is the lack of 'flare' in the menu system (although it is a minor complaint). I mean, with most Blu-Ray releases, you get a cool menu set up with creative ways of displaying the features. Here, its just a stand alond image with the options slapped across the bottom. They didn't even name their chapters (again, though, minor complaint).

But hey, I'm pretty sure the extended release would be more appealing (if we ever get it). All in all, the current Blu-Ray release is just fine.

The Blu-ray is terrible! It' so dark you can barley make out whats happening. I had to adjust my TV settings, or else it would have been a black blob of nothing on the screen. I was really looking forward to seeing it on Blu-ray because in the theatrical 3-D screening, I felt the action was pretty hard to follow. What a let down. In what other case does Blu-ray make something look like crap!? I don't get it...It's like this movie goes out of it's way for you to not want to see anything that's happening in it. I'm going to try the DVD today. Maybe that will be better.

^It's worse.

Thankfully when I watched Godzilla on DVD yesterday, I was able to crank up the brightness on my TV to the point that everything was properly visible. Unfortunately not everyone has the luxury of a TV with really high brightness settings.

On other DVD/Bluray issues, the dubtitles are pretty awful on the Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack / Godzilla against MechaGodzilla release. In addition to those problems, Godzilla against MechaGodzilla features the trailer from Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II.

Sony was pretty sloppy with that one...

For those who want to let Sony know here's the email to try and get them to correct these issues. Please be civil:

It's unlikely they'll do anything about it, but nothing will happen if no one does anything about it.

UPDATES: I added the Wal-Mart cover to Godzilla '14 and fixed the covers for Destroy All Monsters and Godzilla vs. Megalon. All of the recent releases are now titled as "released!"

I also fixed the current Amazon prices for each release.

Finally I added the Gamera: Showa and Heisei Collection to the list. It will be available November 11th. I don't have the Amazon link just yet. If someone wants to hunt it down for me I'll put it up there.

The Gamera release is nothing more than all of Mill Creeks Blurays in a single box set. So unless you don't have these films, the set is usless.

Did anybody buy the Target Exclusive version, cause i wanna watch the Rebirth of an Icon stuff. please upload it to YouTube.

^I did. It's not that impressive, mostly stuff cut from other special features.

The Gamera set is really unnecessary. They just released them on Blu a few months back in two nice sets and a third with the newer trilogy. Also it's missing Gamera the brave. Are they going to be any different? Might be worth it if the trilogy was remastered, they looked a little grainy in the pack I got in the bargin bin at wally world.
