Anyone else enjoy Godzilla movies?
JDavis:
That's King Ghidorah. He actually has three heads, but one is going down-right out of frame there.
I don't consider myself a huge Godzilla fan, but I like them well enough. Mostly I've just watched them if they happen to be on TV.
I did pick up this box set a while back (the older version with the individually packaged DVDs, not the newer "shove everything into one smaller case" version)... But I've only watched Gojira so far.
TyrannicalFascist:
@Dr. Agon - Yeah, that's King Ghidorah. What's interesting about that particular version is that it was the only version where Ghidorah was actually a hero. In that movie, Godzilla, Mothra & King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, Godzilla is just an unstoppable force, and Baragon, Mothra and Ghidorah are ancient monster guardians of Japan. It's definitely worth a watch.
@JDavis - Yeah I picked up that set, and I really like it. I was about to get the 50th Anniversary set that has 9 movies on 7 DVDs to complement that (which goes for $75 - $120 online), but I discovered that buying the movies it contains separately is much cheaper.

Project name? If you want one based on a Godzilla monster: http://godzilla.wikia.com/wiki/Kaiju
Just ordered a bunch of Godzilla DVDs for my collection on Amazon - that Super Saver Shipping really saved me a lot! I think I'm now just missing:
-Godzilla vs The Sea Monster
-Destroy All Monsters (recent DVD release)
-Godzilla vs Hedorah
-Godzilla vs Gigan
-Godzilla vs Megalon (recent DVD release)
-Godzilla 1985 (whenever it gets released, though I have a home-made one for now)
-Godzilla (1998 US) .... maybe... ugh, I hate being a completionist...
I might have to dig up and post my Godzilla series custom DVD covers and post them. I did them a while back, before I came to this site. I never finished the front for Vol. 2, but I can at least share what I have.
JDavis:
If you're really going to be a completest, don't forgot some of the barely-connected films like "War of the Gargantuas" and "Space Amoeba" :P
