With Gamera Rebirth on the way, it's the perfect time to discuss a Gamera monster! In this video, the Toku Professor covers Guiron's entire history: behind the scenes, in-universe history, other appearances, merchandise...all of it. By the time you're done watching this video, you'll know everything there is to know about Gamera's memorable blade-headed foe from Gamera Vs. Guiron! By the way, there are spoilers.
NOTE: In the video I call Shinji Higuchi the director of Gamera 2, while in reality he was the director of special effects for the movie.

And I didn’t know guiron almost returned In the second heisei gamera movie in the trilogy now that’s shocking but legion had did moves that cut or chip in this case heisei gamera’s shell and had light saber whips that impaled through gamera’s tough armor which she also did it with her splittable nose thing too so yeah I guess legion has some sharp weapons like guiron

@mgkiryuu Жыл бұрын

Nice video as always. Some of the Gurion designs were far out there. Shame the little flying squirrel thing got cut, but such was the way for Gamera movies. They reused the same Gamera suit for ever movie and literally only had money for 1 new suit. Luckily all the gamera monster suits looks pretty amazing. Very detailed and what not. I think the most haggard looking one was Jiger, but I chalk that up to them trying to keep the monster on 4 legs and not the knees like in most 4 legged monster movies. That and there was a ton of monster fights and spfx in that movie. Way more than past films.

Guiron was actually the first Gamera villain that I heard of well found out to be more accurate when I did some research of the Japanese Kaiju franchise back in early 2005.

Personally, Guiron is actually my kaiju in this franchise due to the fact that his design looks unique compared to all the other kaiju I've seen in different movies. Also, did you know that Guiron's roars and grunts are also used for the allosaurus' sound effects in Walking with Dinosaurs?

@cheepmovprod 11 ай бұрын

The roar thing is a misconception, The G Team 2’s video of custom Guiron sounds was used for Wikizilla for some reason, and now everyone thinks BBC used Guiron sounds.

Interesting! I think that they cut out most of the fight in the "Attack of the Monsters" version that aired on TV, and perhaps the fight returned in the VHS release. The title of the VHS was "Gamera Vs. Guiron" right, and not "Attack of the Monsters"?

That is correct. The fight scene was restored in the Sandy Frank VHS release in the 1980s, which I believe also used a different dub from what was originally seen on American television.

I'm actually planning at some point in the next month or two to post a community poll in which people will be able to vote on whether they want me to cover the History of Alien Baltan or the History of Zetton. Whichever one wins is going to be a massive subject to tackle, and I'm still recovering from my big History of Gomora video, but as soon as I'm ready I'll post the poll, so keep an eye out for it! In the meantime, I'll be covering other monsters etc.

Thanks for bringing the Franklin reference to my attention; I've never watched the show or heard of the reference. However, I didn't see Guiron present in the clip I saw of the Gamera monsters coming out of the shell; is he shown later on in the episode?
