Want this on DVD?
The most bashed Godzilla movie of all time (with only Godzilla's Revenge giving it a run for it's money), I think it's still way more entertaining than the Millenium Series. I like old school Godzilla. Sue me. And it's got Ultram- err, I mean, Jet Jaguar in it! Groovy, man.
First, I don't work for this particular company, but if you're looking for a good copy of this movie on DVD (as well as the original Japanese cuts of all the G-films, including Godzilla '85 and Biollante), here's a hint: do a Google search for "Showa Video" and go from there. The discs are bootlegs, but the prices are right and they ship pretty quick.
Just getting the word out to those tired of watching their ratty VHS copies.

E: True Hollywood Story: What happened to Jet Jaguar and Megalon
When you purchase a Godzilla movie pre-1975, you have to know what you are getting into. Now, I'm a big Godzilla fan from the old days of 75 and back, but not to the degree of some people. Some people treat these like the STAR WARS series or LORD OF THE RINGS. I haven't even seen all of the 'Zilla flicks yet and I haven't seen any that were made in the last 10 years with the exception of some movie that looked like JURASSIC PARK: NEW YORK starring Matthew Broderick. I don't watch these flicks expecting to see some sort of LAWRENCE OF ARABIA epic or PULP FICTION type storyline.
It is what it is. A low budget, Japanese flick that let's your imagination wonder off a bit and sort of get into the character of Godzilla. Which is another beauty of these movies. You probably don't give a crap about the human characters, you only want to see Godzilla do his things, all the while making hilarious gestures or kicking some other monsters butt.
Which leads to Godzilla vs. Megalon. This has always been one of my favorites because you get everything in this one. Terrible acting (I mean TERRIBLE, there is at least 5 or 6 really bad directing and acting mistakes), awful special effects, hideous dubbing, an annoying little kid, the most comical car chase scene in the history of cinema, cursing, a hilarious fight scene, a mini bike the size of a coffee can, and a great little tune at the end of the movie. It is great for any Godzilla fan.

31/2 stars, actually.
I really don't understand what the problem is w/godzilla and jet jaguar shaking hands. I thought it was kind of cool. Sure this movie is cheesy, and the main characters couldn't be more stupid. Plus the military-on monster action is at it's best in this movie. That's all I have to say.

Something about this film...
This movie is awful. The sets, the stock footage, the actors...all are extremely cheesy. And yet, something about this film makes me want to like it. And I do, in fact.
This is the best awful movie ever! Recommended!
