Hey everyone, at the beginning of this post godzilla destroys all monsters is listed as releasing july 22nd. I pre ordered mine from walmart.com and received it by May 3rd. Most of the re-releases are not being carried in store so you'll most likely have to order them online. Most retailers have them listed as available online only.

I just checked Amazon to see how much Godzilla vs. Biollante on Blu-Ray was, with it being the last flim on Blu-Ray I needed of the Hesei series, not including Godzilla 1984, and it was 45 dollars! I've been hearing that is "out-of-print" Do you think they will release another version of the Blu-Ray?

Godzilla vs. Biollante is going out of print and my not return to Bluray for a long time. I'll try to find an alternative for you, but I'd knab it before it gets into the hundreds like Destroy All Monsters.

Whoa, there's this option. It's unavailable through amazon, but two other sellers have it for $17.99. Infortunately it also comes with two awful Asylum movies, but it's the cheapest I've seen the movie available:

$17.99 Other Sellers

UPDATE: I actually went back and updated the prices (most are cheaper), a few special features and listed the release dates as "RELEASED!" for the movies that are finally available. As of right now, the only ones we're left waiting on (officially) are the re-releases of Destroy All Monsters and the Godzilla vs. Megalon bluray.

Rumors (and little tweets in my ear from unmentionable sources) are circulating that Son of Godzilla, Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla, Godzilla 2000, Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, Godzilla against MechaGodzilla and Rebirth of Mothra 1,2 and 3 may all be released on Bluray later this year. Stay tuned.

gman2887, great thread this one! thanks for all updates.

Just curious, any info if the Rodan movie will be released in bluray format? So far only Japanese receive the bluray release (http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/TBR-19164D) and no English version included. I'd love to have the bluray format containing both Japanese version and English version included, just like when it was released on DVD format.

Ardian,

The link you provided is for the Japanese only release. It's Toho's bluray that includes no english subtitles.

The North American distributor for Rodan is Classic Media. Currently they have no plans to release any of their Godzilla/Toho catalog on bluray. Your best bet would be to get a mass of fans to email them about it and cross your fingers.

Hi Gman2887...thanks so much for the reply. That's a pity to hear that Classic Media won't release those early Godzilla movies in bluray for now. However, I read that their bluray version of the 1st Godzilla movie is rather disappointing, compared to Criterion's version. So looks like I'll have to buy the DVD of Rodan/War of the Gargantuas for now, it's pretty cheap too in Amazon at the moment.
Yup, of course I understand that the Japanese bluray contains no English subtitles. I was actually amazed that ALL of Godzilla movies receive bluray release/re-release in June in Japan... but considering these are highly expensive and has no English subtitles, I will still have to rely on the US distributors to work on the bluray versions.

Forgive me if it's already been mentioned but I just wanted to point out that the double features all came with digital copies (Ultraviolet). The Kraken releases DID NOT have the digital copies. Was really happy with them all. Any news on possible release date on G2014? Or any more on the rumers you mentioned Gman2887?

Wraith0711,

Yeah I neglected to mention the digital copies  for no particular reason. But thanks for mentioning it.

Currently the only rumors my little birds have chirped in my ear is that:

1) Expect Godzilla '14 around August-November.

2) Sony may be releasing a GMK/Godzilla x MechaGodzilla Double Feature Bluray around the same time as Godzilla '14 is released on DVD/Bluray.

3) Sony is likely giving Godzilla 2000 a 2 disc special edition, which explains why it wasn't part of any Double Features. The reason for this is that Sony put more money into it for its theatrical release and because of the differences in sound/editing between the Japanese and American versions it will be put on two seperate discs, ala, Classic Media's DVD edition of Gojira/Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

4) Another distributor has picked up Son of Godzilla and Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla '74 for a Bluray release.

5) The Rebirth of Mothra trilogy may be released soon on Bluray in a single Triple Feature set around the same time as Godzilla '14.

Again, all of these are rumors and yet to be confirmed. So take everything here with a hefty grain of salt. Or two.

Silly question, but if Son of Godzilla and Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla get a blu-ray release, they'll get a dvd release too, right? 

MaybeToby,

Maybe, maybe not. It depends on the distributor and what they deem most profitable. The Heisei/Millennium films were re-released with Japanese audio, credits, widescreen and extras on Bluray. But Sony has no intention for re-releasing them on DVD.

Meanwhile, Kraken Releasing put all three of their Showa movies out on both DVD and Bluray.

You can't ever tell with this niche market.

not sure if anyone noticed the mistake on the re-release of the godzilla king of the monsters dvd, but the thing is on the back of the dvd it says that these movies were released in 1964 instead of 1954 and that is a huge mistake, figured i would point that out to you guys. :)

Shame, I'm more interested in completing my dvd collection than starting up a blu-ray collection. Especially since I don't have a blu-ray player. I got lucky that a lot of the Showa films were re-released on dvd because of the new film. I don't feel like paying $100+ for Son of Godzilla and Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla '74.

It's not confirmed they won't be on DVD as well, but even if that's the case Godzilla Blurays typically go cheap. I would certainly consider upgrading at some point as the Heisei releases on bluray are far superior to their DVD counterparts.

Found this on WalMart's website. I'm not sure if it's completely legit but it's the most specific release dates and descriptions I've found :)

Godzilla BluRay Release Dates (according to Walmart)

Dalek,

That's been up for awhile. It's likely just a place holder date. We won't know for certain until Warner Bros. makes an official announcment, which is what I'm waiting on.

K thanks for replying XD I wasn't sure so I shared it anyway

I recently happened upon this image online:

No telling if they're real, but if they are real they may just be the European covers to these films. The 3D Bluray edition is on Amazon France's website:

http://www.amazon.fr/Godzilla-Blu-ray-3D-Aaron-Taylor-Johnson/dp/B00KBZ4G2W?tag=hidefnin0a-21

So we don't know if these are A) Official and B) Official to North America.

France has the European release date for September 17th. That's still yet to be confirmed.

Ahhh I hope that is the real cover for the dvd since i don't have a blu-ray. :)

Nice find there gman. :)

All the Sony double feature Godzilla blu rays are now on sale at Amazon. Each is USD 11.49 (original price was USD 19.99)

Wal-Mart.com has Godzilla listed for release 11/18/2014. Man I really hoped it would come out sooner......

Sorry about the repeat info but i would bet this is a real date. The week before (dramatic pause) BLACK FRIDAY! Just hope they put out more piggy back releases to coincide with its release. Again props to GMAN2887. The 3d one looks like a steel case too.

Wraith,
It's unlikely Wal-Mart has a real release date without WB announcing it first. And having worked in retail about 150 years ago, I know distributors like customers to buy products for full price. Godzilla will be on sale the first week of its release, but to have it on sale (and likely dirt cheap) for the second week could actually lead to some negative numbers for both distributors and stores-- depending on the price anyway.

I'd think that because it comes out the week before black friday is reason to believe it's not the real release date. But we shall see.

MASSIVE UPDATE: Cover art and release dates for Godzilla 2000, GMK, Godzilla against MechaGodzilla and The Rebirth of Mothra Trilogy blurays have been added. All are slated for a September 9th release date. (Which may also hint at when Godzilla '14 is released on Bluray.)

Scroll up to the original post for the cover art and new info. For more, click here.

Awesome news GMAN2887! The last bluray release looked/sounded great! I just wish classic media would do something with their collection. The boxed set they released a few years ago was very nice, the packaging was just awesome. Any whispers from their camp?

Classic Media was asked earlier this year if they have any plans to release buray of their Godzilla catalog. The answer was a quick "no". They would have to pay for all new HD transfers from Toho and don't deem their DVDs a high enough success to do so.

This may change if enough fans charge their email.

Amazon.com has the three new releases available for preorder, $13.99 each. Thank you GMAN2887 for your reply.

And thank you for the heads up Wraith.

Would you mind posting the links and I'll add them to the top? They're pretty obscure in Amazon's search and I'm fairly short on time.

@gman2887,

You know what makes me mad? I was at walmart yesterday and the had a triple feature dvd of godzilla movies.

The triple feature had these three films

1. godzilla and mothra the battle for earth 1992

2. godzilla vs. king ghidorah 1991

3. GMK 2001

It's disappointing that they do that when i have had to buy each individually.
