I'm loving these intelligent disscussions about Godzilla movies, having said that I'm not sure where you'd go for idiotic disscussions on the subject. Anyway, this is important: when I was a kid me and my brother rented "The Return of Godzilla"
a.k.a Godzilla 1985!! on VHS in the late 80's. As far as I can recall it was english dub over Japanese actors, no American actors were in it.
What I'm saying here is that following from the pof disscussion where Ronald was unsure if the original version of the movie ever got a western release ...well, yes it did and there may well be copies still out there.
