Anybody else a fan of the 90's Gamera movies? My personal favorite was Guardian of the Universe. But Iris had some cool ass scenes.

1.

Spoiler

The entire scene where Gamera's hunting the injured Gyaos/completely fukken indiscriminately destroying the city.

2.

Spoiler

The ending. Gamera tired and injured about to face a herd of THOUSANDS of Gyaos. Took balls to end the trilogy on a cliffhanger

Awesome shit all around.

Godzilla Final Wars is much better
Tokyo SOS as well
GMK because Godzilla is better than Gamera

the gamera trilogy smokes all the current godzilla movies.

godzilla final wars sucks ass. it's a terrible film and yes, i've seen it.

i'm a big japanese monster (kaiju) fan.

grew up with ultraman, johnny sokko and his flying robot, gamera and godzilla.

There are new Gamera movies? What are they called/where can I get them? Are they on DVD?

Yep...they've been out for awhile. All 3 are great.

I've only seen Guardian of the Universe, are the other 2 as good?

Guardian of the Universe, Attack of Legion, and Revenge of Iris... I assume that's what he's talking about, anyway. All these films came out in the mid/late 90s IIRC, and are available from ADV Films.

The 90s Gamera movies were pretty damn good, and I must say that in general they are better films than most of the new Godzilla movies produced around the same time. ...Too bad Gamera sucks compared to Godzilla.


EDIT: Beaten to the punch. Oh well.

I liked the last 2 movies better. They're all very solid for kaiju movies though.

So you like boring films?

Thanks. ^^ I also grew up on Gamera so I'd like to see these. I'm kind of surprised that I didn't hear about them until now...
