I think I can explain the soundtrack a little. In the 1970's, movie studios were getting taken over by other corporations, like soft drinks makers and the like, who didn't understand movies, but did understand bussiness and so started handing down mandates to the film makers, to do things a certain way. Disco was huge at the time and much, much cheaper to produce a disco soundtrack, as opposed to the traditional orchestral soundtrack. Beleive me when I say, Star Wars came very close to having a disco soundtrack slapped on it by STudio Mandate and as funny as it may sound, Darth Vader wouldn't be nearly as intimidating with an Isaak Hayes Blacksploitation theme tune.
My guess for more inappropriate music for iconic kaiju scenes: King Kong's first appearance in the 1933 classic: "King Kong" (you might know it from one of the BEN Drowned videos) King Kong fighting the T-rex (1933) or the V-rex (2005): The DK Rap Gamera flying in Gamera vs. Guiron: "I Believe I Can Fly" The Trespasser kaiju coming from the portal in Pacific Rim: "Fuck da Police" Rodan flying in Moscow in Destroy All Monsters!: "Moskau" Ultraman vs. Alien Baltan: John Cena's theme The megalodon attacking people in The Meg: "Baby Shark"
More inappropriate kaiju music: King Ghidorah's awakening in KotM: "Ice Ice Baby" Hedorah in Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster: "Crawling" by Linkin Park George, Lizzie, and Ralph fighting in Rampage: "Sweet Dreams are Made of This" Mechagodzilla in Ready Player One: Transformers theme song
At least the Dinosaurs looked better in that then the ones in this garbage heap do (they aren't even actual dinosaurs) despite the former being mostly CGI with occasional animatronics and practical effects
"She's fallen into the last 20 minutes of the American Godzilla" We're going to have to be more specific when we talk about the "American Godzilla" now...
On top of everything else wrong with this flick, the title is also a lie as there are no dinosaurs, since neither pleisiosaurs nor pterodactyls were actually dinosaurs.
agreed, why lie about the animals in the movie. Its like showing a spinosaurus on the movie poster and it ends up being a crocodile in the actual movie.

It’s a movie so bad, you have to actually experience it yourself to fully comprehend. Being told how bad it is will never allow you to fully appreciate how bad it is.
Another interesting parallel between this movie and Jaws is that Steven Spielberg had to shoot around and/or hide his film's special effects because they largely didn't work. Clearly this movie should have taken the same route.
Well 'Legend of the Aerial and Marine Preshistoric Reptiles' doesn't have the the same ring to it so that could be forgiven. I mean Jurassic park also had mostly cretaceous dinosaurs 🤷
@@thedeadcannotdie ironically they did eventually make Camp Cretaceous lol . Which does have an okay sounds from the double c . But idk Cretaceous park vs Jurassic park . It could be because of it being around so long but Cretaceous park just doesn't sound as intimidating, if that makes sense.
From what I can gather, the soundtrack was by Masao Yagi , a jazz pianist. Really good musician if you ask me. It does feel like he wrote the music *before* the film was in production but it's only a hunch.
This review is old but it's classic. It's funny: as someone who has been obsessed with dinosaurs for over 25 years, I never heard of this one either God I love the funky soundtrack. It's a travesty that the Funkadactyls never had the pterosaur theme for their entrance. The album ad and the Godzilla/Burn Baby Burn and Jaws/Funkytown mashups were amazing
Maybe the money went into the big volcano scene? I mean I think they did a great job of giving the feeling of the whole area getting torn up or burned down in the blink of an eye.
this is the type of music you'd expect to play with the Japanese version of Shaft.....Shaft in Tokyo...I'd watch that....be the closest thing to 1970s version of Blade...staring Jim Kelly
I was exactly the same when I was a kid 'Dinosaur Mad' and still am at 37 got all the movies coz I had to have them especially those that I only caught a glimpse of years ago due to not knowing they were on TV at the time then never saw again and didn't catch the movie title or somefing ! 😡😡😡

Seriously, my denim pants and work shoes turned into bell-bottoms and solid-gold platform 'gators when those horns blast on the theme song there.

Is the guide Hitoshi Matsumoto? As in Downtown Matsumoto? I mean, at the time he would be like 14 years old, but that looks just like him. And no, it's not an "all Japanese look alike" gag, it's a splitting image of a 35-year-old Matsumoto, down to the placement of that one crooked tooth!

Admittedly the monsters are fairly weak looking. But it was pribably a big leap to attempt monsters without a man inside them. Overall the production values look higher than the typical Japanese film of the period.
I had the same song in mind that you put over the Mt. Fuji explodes scene.. damn it. Well, it is kinda japanese.. they used it in Dead or Alive Extreme Volleyball..*cough*

In retrospect, Godzilla burning Tokyo to the theme song, disco inferno, best thing ever.
My guess for more inappropriate music for iconic kaiju scenes:
King Kong's first appearance in the 1933 classic: "King Kong" (you might know it from one of the BEN Drowned videos)
King Kong fighting the T-rex (1933) or the V-rex (2005): The DK Rap
Gamera flying in Gamera vs. Guiron: "I Believe I Can Fly"
The Trespasser kaiju coming from the portal in Pacific Rim: "Fuck da Police"
Rodan flying in Moscow in Destroy All Monsters!: "Moskau"
Ultraman vs. Alien Baltan: John Cena's theme
The megalodon attacking people in The Meg: "Baby Shark"
I myself would like a remixed ,special edition with disco inferno music
More inappropriate kaiju music:
King Ghidorah's awakening in KotM: "Ice Ice Baby"
Hedorah in Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster: "Crawling" by Linkin Park
George, Lizzie, and Ralph fighting in Rampage: "Sweet Dreams are Made of This"
Mechagodzilla in Ready Player One: Transformers theme song
Super Mechagodzilla Transformation: “Go Green Ranger Go” from Power Rangers
Especially with Japanese children crying.
Replacing the ost from that scene from Gojira with "Disco Inferno" was one of the best things I've ever seen on youtube.
It's funny but it makes sense
One of my favorite riffs
Burn baby Burn
I understand his point about music setting the tone but your right, Disco Inferno made Gojira suddenly a hundred times more awesome.
It was awesome 😅

Playing funky '70s disco music would've improved Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, it also has more or less the same writing quality.
At least the Dinosaurs looked better in that then the ones in this garbage heap do (they aren't even actual dinosaurs) despite the former being mostly CGI with occasional animatronics and practical effects

They obviously spent most of their budget on the funky soundtrack Brandon.
Not to mention all the drugs for the cast and crew, it was the 70s.
They spent on cropdusters filled with cocaine , one at 9:AM, noon, and 4:37pm,everyday of the shoot
Most? I'm pretty sure they spent all the money on cocaine pot and the funk, then just bribed everyone to do the rest with the drugs and jams.

The budget went into soundtrack, Mr. Brandon! You should be thanking them for gave us those funky music!
This movie was trying so, so hard to be "artsy" (inappropriately). Actually kinda liked some of the music, though.
The music in this film pushed me into smooth jazz.....I wish I was joking.... I have it in my actual playlist and its ****ing amazing.....

For a movie called "Legend of the Dinosaurs" there are no dinosaurs in it. ^^
Ancient Daikaiju I bet it's called the legend of dinosaurs as the expectation of dinosaurs are a legend
