On Thanksgiving weekend of 1994, TNT provided a huge treat for Godzilla fans by airing a night of Godzilla movies as part of their Monstervision programming block. Here are the original promos created by TNT!
Original Schedule
8:00p "Godzilla vs. Mothra" (1964)
9:55p "Godzilla vs. Monster Zero" (1965)
12:00a "Godzilla's Revenge" (1969)*
1:30a "Terror of Mechagodzilla" (1975)
3:00a "Godzilla, King of the Monsters!" (1954/1956)
*Unfortunately, I don't have the bumpers for "Godzilla's Revenge."
Huge thanks to "GodzFire" at the Club Tokyo forums for sending me these recordings!

@BTLAGS 4 ай бұрын

But the point is that it actually took that to destroy him anything beyond that it doesn't work. Godzilla only died because he was actually going to melt down and die but honestly no monster nor any army has defeated him. The oxygen Destroyer is the only thing but that's equivalent of a nuke that can not only destroy Godzilla or any monster could destroy the entire world

Back when TV was great. TNT with specials like this, MonsterVision, Outer Limits, Our Favorite Movies, etc. Scifi channel chain reactions, Special Presentations of Star Trek with interviews and extras, Nick at Nite with all the fun stuff and great promos that could get you psyched to watch even a boring show. MTV playing actual music! Hard to believe we enjoyed all these things. Harder when you think we all thought it would last forever, too. Thank goodness some wise folks recorded some of it.

I remember hearing the MonsterVision intro with the Godzilla song and spending most of my childhood repeatedly playing that memory in my head. Took me until early adulthood to confirm it was played by Blue Oyster Cult, yet I cannot hear it without thinking of MonsterVision.

Mvies channel is having a giant monsters marathon the day after Thanksgiving. Several good Godzilla movies are included. Still miss the older marathons. I remember when they'd show King Kong on thanksgiving day and all Godzilla movies the day after on channels like WOR 9 in NY metro area or WPIX 11. Loved them and March Of The Wooden Soldiers kicking things off on Thanksgiving. This is late 70s early 80s.

@squatch570 6 жыл бұрын

Marc Ribaudo YES!! That was the time to be a kid. I grew up in the 70's and 80's and remember that distinctly. We'd go to my grandmother's house for Thanksgiving Day (from about 10am- 7/8ish & dinner of course) and after dinner King Kong '33 and Son of Kong came on then. Then it was all day with the Godzilla marathon the next day, off from school and watching it. WOR 9 & WPIX 11! True NY stations.

I remember watching this when it aired and for nearly thirty years I've been mildly amused and annoyed at them getting Gabara's name wrong. Since they frequently played Frankenstein Conquers the world in complimentary Toho marathons, usually the day before or after the Godzillathons, I wonder if they originally had a clip of Baragon in this before someone realized that wasn't a mainline Godzilla film and swapped it out for Gabara but neglected to change the name.

@melvinbutchhoot 4 жыл бұрын

Ah good times. Remember this fondly. Tried to stay up all night to watch em all. Fell asleep sometime during Godzilla's Revenge. I taped em all though. We didn't have alot of options back in the day when it came to Godzilla on home video. Most of the time you had to catch em on tv and tape em. Now we have companies like Criterion releasing the showa era all on in one set.

@ChaoticStrike Nice! If you ever find a way to upload those clips, please do. It would be great to see those! And it is a shame that the Showa Godzillas are never on TV (or anything good, for that matter). You can still find some of the 90s and 2000s films on Encore and Starz, but the only place you'll find Showa Godzilla is on TCM, and that's usually just KOTM.
