Hi H-Man,
I need your assistance with information for few things on this site that are Godzilla related. I hope you can help me out.
1. Over a year ago I added a video from Space Hunter M’s, YouTube channel on the Cinema Shares Godzilla triple bill. I cited in the article to the three films that they were shown together in theaters in 1978. Astounding had come in and added a concern that I didn’t have a source for the year so I did some looking online and found other sites where fans were stating they saw the three films together in theatres either in ’77 or 78. Is there a way you could help me find a source? I don’t think I found anything when I looked on Newspapers.org.
2. Over a decade ago I recalled seeing online a lobby card that advertised something like “Come see Godzilla Triple Feature at your local drive in
Godzilla on Monster Island
And
Godzilla vs. Megalon
also
Godzilla vs. the Cosmic Monster"
The lobby card might have mentioned Toho and Cinema Shares on it. I looked everywhere but couldn’t find it online. Do you by chance have access to this lobby card or could you help me locate it?
3. I need reference material for my sandbox for when the four Alan Enterprise Godzilla films were shown on the Movie Channel in 1980 and for the Godzilla Marathon in San Fransico in 1987 on their local station KTSF26 that broadcasted three of those same films which were formerly distributed by Walter Reade and the three Cinema Shares releases. Do you have this information or can you guide me to sites that reference the two channels’ showings in further detail?
4. For educational purposes I am considering a YouTube account to make comparison videos of censored and unedited versions of dubbed Godzilla films. Do you think it would be more appropriate to use the Sci-Fi Channel airings as a source for comparison from the stand point that they both use the NTSC format or the UK PAL VHS tapes from the stand point that for the most part both are from VHS sources?
5. And finally, I appreciate that you have helped me out a lot on this site. Is there something I could help you out with on here or in any research you might be doing on a Godzilla topic?
Thanks again and take care.
