Godzilla 1980

FAQ



    Cinema Shares acquired the rights to the film and launched a massive advertisement campaign to promote the film. As a result this became the most widely available Godzilla film in the US. Many have attribute this film as damaging the image of Godzilla and permeating negative and inaccurate stereotypes. The film was also mistakenly believed to be in the public domain which lead to many video releases of the film that were ultimately illegal. Ironically this film was a disappointment in Japan as the entire Japanese film industry was in crises due to the completion from TV and economic downturn.



    No. After its release, the film was mistakenly believed to be in the public domain. Toho is extremely strict on their trademark of Godzilla and will sue anyone if they believe their rights are being infringed. The only current official release of this film is the Criterion edition from Janus films.



    The direct translation from the original full length Japanese song is as follows:

    In the sky, a red sun shines Jet Jaguar, Jet Jaguar! Our Jaguar! When the Earth is in danger, a strong punch to the bad guys Godzilla and Jaguar punch, punch, punch! He's everyone's friend of justice

    If something happens, he'll set it straight Jet Jaguar, Jet Jaguar! As expected, Jaguar! The space monster isn't scary, and the undersea monster is a fool Godzilla and Jaguar punch, punch, punch! Like a storm, he blasts off

    He's a robot made by humans, but Jet Jaguar, Jet Jaguar! You did it, Jaguar! Go, go to protect peace We are all surprised at the courage you show Godzilla and Jaguar punch, punch, punch! Don't cry, let's give it our all

    The translation for the film version varied on the home video releases: Tokyo Shock translation: A man-made guardian of Earth Jet Jaguar, Jet Jaguar Well done, Jaguar Go! Go! Defend our peace Display the courage that amazes us all Godzilla and Jaguar, punch, punch, punch! Let's all fight bravely as a team!

    The Criterion Collection translation: A man-made robot A guardian of Earth Jet Jaguar, Jet Jaguar Well done, Jaguar Go! Go! Defend our peace Show us your amazing courage Godzilla and Jaguar Punch, punch, punch! We've got to be strong just like them!
