If I had seen that trailer as a kid in 1964 I would have begged my parents to take me to see it!!! Back when movie trailers were FUN!!....movies as well!
Scott Manns That’s precisely how I felt when I first saw this trailer on GoodTimes’ “Fantastic Dinosaurs of the Movies.” I knew Godzilla and had seen a few of the films but this one was new to me. It drove me crazy trying to track it down!
@@TheHMan Omg I also own "Fantastic Dinosaurs of the Movies" on VHS! I would randomly think of this trailer from time to time and was surprised I found this footage here. Thanks for uploading!
Yuri King As far as the monster cast goes, yes, but the movies will undoubtedly be very different visually, structurally, tonally, and any other number of ways.
@@TheHMan major disagreement there. Kotm human story, while flawed, still way better than this movies, and ghidorah is much better utilized in kotm. Still love this movie, but kotm is better imo
@Idiot with an Opinion I'm sorry your comment was in purgatory for three weeks. I have my channel set up so I have to review every new comment and, for some reason, yours didn't show up until this afternoon. It had nothing to do with my very low opinion of KotM, lol.
This brick and mortar tactile natural color style of movie making will always look more realistic than the CGI with that unnatural metallic blue filter used today.
If I had a dime for evry old monster movie trailer that said "never before seen" or "nothing the screen has ever shown", I would be richer than Bill Gates. Prove me wrong
You're asking for 1 dime for every 1 monster movie trailer with either of those phrases. According to Google, Bill Gates' net worth is 96.3 billion dollars ($). (Not an exact amount, and I'm sure it fluctuates, but it will be precise enough to prove you wrong.) First, we need to express this number in dimes. There are 10 dimes in a dollar: in other words, the value of a dime as expressed in terms of dollars is $0.1. The formula we'll use is D x N = W, where D = value of a dime expressed in $, N = number of dimes, and W = Gates' net worth. We'll solve for N because we don't know that variable. D = $0.1 and G= $96,300,000,000 $0.1 x N = $96,300,000,000 N = $96,300,000,000/$0.1 N = 963,000,000,000 (963 billion) dimes. Now, to be richer than Mr. Gates, you'd need 963 billion + 1 dimes. That means you'd need to find 963,000,000,001 "old monster movie" trailers with the appropriate phrase(s). Even if we were lenient and granted you 1 dime for every trailer (regardless of genre) you'd still fall well short of the estimated 500,000 existing movies (source: StoryAlity #19, 2012-12-17, Wordpress). [This is also operating under the assumption that there's one extant trailer for every one existing film. More precise calculations would be too much of a headache but I think we can both agree that you're still going to be well short of your goal.] Even if you argued that there is 1 lost movie for every extant movie (which couldn't possibly be true), you'd still be $96,299,900,000 short of *matching* Mr. Gates' net worth. I'm going to assume that your net worth cannot possibly make up for that difference.
Thank you for spelling Ghidrah as it is in the title. People spelling Ghidorah drive me up the wall. Then most people mispronounce it. They say Ghee DOR ah. The correct way is Gheed o rah really fast so it comes out sounding like Gheedrah.
Although "Ghidorah" is the official spelling as registered by Toho, "Ghidrah" is arguably closer to the Japanese pronunciation. (The problem is the "o," which isn't emphasized in Japanese.) The common English pronunciation gih-DOOR-uh that came later isn't at all like the Japanese name. Sometimes I think Toho's English character names are based on visual similarity to the romaji names. IMO it would make more sense for them to concoct names that *sound* similar using English phonetics. An example: Toho says "アンギラス" should be "Anguirus." English speakers aren't going to see that spelling and come close to a pronunciation that sounds like the Japanese name. The abandoned "Angilas" is actually closer in that regard.
The release (dvd) by Classic Media of this movie is over a 100$$ !!!! I paid like 15$ for it in 2014 !!!! Other than the Japanese blu ray of the movie classic media is the best. They have the uncut japanese original w subs and the english version w audio commentary. Its the going price on Amazon.
The trailer makes it look SO good! I grew up with this movie, always loved Ghidorah. Looking back, I just wish they had left out the princess/girl from Venus subplot and the comedy and kept the focus on more serious monster menace stuff. But it's still a cool movie.
And people say modern trailers show too much

Remember watching that in the Fantastic Dinosaurs of the Movies Trailer compilation on VHS a lot as a kid.
This was the movie that transitioned Godzilla to a good guy.
Ghidorah was the best thing to have ever happened to toho
Like if you agree
A side from Godzilla vs Mothra
This is one of the best movies from 1964
Yep.
How funny that 1964 had two Godzilla films at once
This is pretty much what Godzilla King of the Monsters will be, Godzilla, Mothra and Rodan vs Ghidrah
Yuri King As far as the monster cast goes, yes, but the movies will undoubtedly be very different visually, structurally, tonally, and any other number of ways.
Well... it was Godzilla and Mothra vs Ghidorah and Rodan. You were half right
And KOTM wasn’t nearly as good. (:

@@TheHMan Damn, guess its back to the streets for me.
the new trailer just dropped and i came to see this to hype me up for the new movie
Godzilla 2 trailer from comic con brought me here
Ghidorah intro is the best!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
Not to be confused with "Monster Zero", which is a totally different movie
Ghidorah the Three-Headed Monster >>>>> KOTM
KOTM loses extra points for not having a three-way team-up between Godzilla, Rodan, and Mothra.
Biggest upset tbh
This looks like FUN!!

King Ghidorah: *Funny Bidibidi noises*
You actually taught me how to do ghidrah,s roar, thank you.....

You do realize there are cheaper prices on eBay, right?
And people say KOTM showed to much....this showed practically the whole movie...
(Sorry Gojira TheKing for kinda copying your comment :P)
At least “Ghidrah” is a good movie.
@@TheHMan kotm is good
Sorry, I disagree. I thought it was awful. And I went in hoping and expecting to like it.
today marks ghidorahs 60th anniversary and birthday to the false king we know in love
The movie was released December 20, 1964.
@@TheHMan actually in JPN it was released on jan 1st of that year
@@cm94returns19 No it wasn’t.

Great kaju movie 🎬
nice og hd
Is it just me or is everyone not using a period on the end of there comment? Strange.
I hate how we pronounced it as "Ghidrah."
I prefer it to the more prevalent "Guh DOOR uh".
He's attacking because they got his name wrong.
no way that is how they pronounced Ghidorah in america back in the day
It’s arguably closer to the Japanese pronunciation than the more prevalent “gih-DOR-uh”.
@@TheHMan Hmm maybe. Still fun to see the regional differences over time
u mean ghidorah lol
(it says ghidrah)
SpiderPigPlays Ghidrah is better-suited for the English language.
