among critics at the time... most praised the effects. Also, he was a genre movie hater in general, so singling his scornful review out makes it seem as if he had something against this movie specifically and not other sci-fi and horror of the time. It feeds into a popular, misleading narrative of the Burr version to just include only Crowther's bad faith review when there was a wide range of both positive and negative views of the film even at the time. This inaccurate, revisionist narrative tries to connect the supposed complete sanitization of the Burr cut to the Crowther review as if Crowther would have reviewed the film favorably if it had been released with more of the h-bomb references intact, or unedited with subtitles (he would not have). It's also a nonsensical connection because the whole thesis of Crowther's bad faith review is "it's just another stupid fake monster movie, this time from Japan and inspired by King Kong." Please understand that I'm not advocating for a more "fair" sampling of reviews, just a wider sampling that doesn't give fuel to a flimsy narrative people have been pushing for years. -- Syd

drive-ins. And they didn't all have to be "new" films, either. In the Summer of 1976, some theatres would do all-day Godzilla matinees with GODZILLA VS. MEGALON, YOG, DESTROY ALL MONSTERS and GHIDRAH! On it's first release in May of 1976, MEGALON was usually (but not exclusively) double-featured with THE GIANT SPIDER INVASION. The only Godzilla films that were given mandatory double bills were Monster Zero (with The War of The Gargantuas) and Godzilla's Revenge (with Island of the Burning Damned). Those films were promoted together with a double bill trailer and double bill poster. They were not promoted with separate trailers and posters. So the others were not paired up with a mandatory double feature. This film in particular also played on a double bill with

Yeah, I'd definitely concede to the newspaper source. But again, we need a link. Accurate info for Godzilla films are scarce, so we tend to rely on English books & commentaries published by verified journalists and authors like Ryfle, Godziszewski, Kalat, Ragone, England, Galbraith IV, and others. A text citation alone isn't enough, as it can be challenged by any other editor and reverted back to a more reliable source like Ryfle's book.

is also on-line. Also stations in San Diego and San Francisco, available at the California Digital Newspaper Collection. Who didn't do their homework? All you have is a reference in a book from the 1990s, which it turns out was wrong. It happens, books are sometimes wrong. I have a genealogy blog. If somebody tells me there's a mistake, the first thing I do is investigate it and find out what's what. Why the big fuss?

the NY Times! Monday October 13 1958 TV listing 7:30pm...page 158. Why not be right? And with all due respect to that book's author, how could he have been right (verified?) when I have found 4 other stations besides WOR that aired Godzilla before KHJ. Mind you, I'm not saying WOR was first...to do that I'd have to see every TV schedule for every station in the country, wouldn't I?
1407: 2135:. Also, some of your edits are non-constructive because you're just unnecessarily moving things around, and even repeating one edit verbatum, with no good reason. There's a reason why everything was where it was and why the article passed GA nomination. But if it's an issue, I would not oppose to renaming the "Release" section to "Release and reception". It would cover all bases. 1699: 853: 314: 1727:
This version dubbed most of the Japanese dialogue into English, altered and removed key plot points and themes, and added new footage with Burr leading and narrating most of the film and interacting with body-doubles and Japanese-American actors in an attempt to make it seem like Burr was part of the

To answer your question, 1: the only TV debut date I know of is from the Ryfle source. I actually own the book and if I didn't, it's immediately accessible via a scanned digital version. That source, and likely the Kalat book, are the only sources immediately available to check the TV debut dates. 2:

makes no rule or guideline that the Reception section should be its own section. Therefore, sections for each article should be determined on its own merits. Additionally, the critical response/reception for this article is too small to warrant a separate section compared to the reception section of
1346:
In the “Filming and Dubbing” section, you might mention that besides adding Raymond Burr, Frank Iwanaga, body doubles, and Japanese voice actors, there was one more addition…another American actor who had a speaking role, although he’s uncredited. That’s Mikel Conrad as Burr’s editor George Lawrence
1266:
That's not evidence you provided. Anyone can make a false citation. We need indisputable evidence, a link to the article. Again, you brought up the dispute, so it's your responsibility to provide the link. What's so hard about that? Why the big fuss? The source we used is from the most authoritative
1165:
And the comment above goes to show that you can't believe everything some random person tells you without evidence. A verified source was provided for the KHJ claim. Where's your source? Just saying "source: New York Times" is not enough. Where's the link? Where's the article? We can't alter content
1250:
How did I not provide evidence? The New York Times is on-line...I gave you the date, the time, the page number. Anybody reading this discussion who has access to it can look it up and see for themselves. Boston and Providence RI also aired Godzilla before KHJ, and that's from the Boston Globe which
1182:
Of course you don't have to believe me...I'm just alerting you to the fact that the book is wrong and thus you're wrong. Ok, I tried putting a link here but I deleted it because it required my personal log-in to the Boston Public Library for access to the NY Times. But it isn't hard to check...it's
1319:
As for the link to the New York Times, WOR, twice nightly and 3 times on Saturday, October 13-18 1958, I went to ProQuest at the Boston Public Library website and copied the link, but I think you'll find it behind a paywall...well, free for library users, but not open to the general public. That's
1149:
Which just goes to show you can’t believe everything you read in books. KHJ in Los Angeles aired Godzilla Monday through Friday, King Kong on Saturday, and Godzilla once again on Sunday, July 6-12 1959. At least 5 other markets aired Godzilla before that. The earliest I know of is WOR in New York
2351:
Now, these US double-bills were not mandatory, but rather optional. So, they didn't play everywhere like this. Theaters back then could put together their own programs from different studios/distributors. Some theaters in the 1960s-early 1970s would do triple-and-quadruple features, and so would
1137:
I'd add a lot more early reviews for the film beyond just Bosley Crowther's. A substantial number of reviews were favorable, some reviewers even showed understanding of the nuclear themes in spite of the toned down message. Crowther's low opinion of the film's special effects was a minority view
1315:
Fair enough...well, Ryfle only says 1959...the exact dates, although I understand you needn't believe me, but for future reference just in case, are Monday thru Friday July 6 thru 10 at 9pm...Saturday the 11th they ran King Kong at 9pm...then Sunday the 12th Godzilla a final time at 9pm.

Making claims yet not providing evidence to back them up? Sounds like you're the one being wrong in public. We found a verified and authoritative source to back up our claims. We already did our homework and showed our work. All you've provided are claims and excuses not to prove them.
1283:
Let me ask you 2 questions: (1) Do you know the exact date when Godzilla first aired on KHJ? (2) Would you agree that a TV listing in a newspaper showing Godzilla airing on another channel, in another city, before the KHJ date would disprove your claim?
2194:
I think the point 142.189.237.102 is trying to make is that newspaper sources seem to contradict the book source. I searched newspapers.com for April and early May and I found multiple other movies paired with this movie as a double feature:
2312:
I don't have a high level of confidence in the book as a source because it's not self-consistent about the release date. It lists the release date as April 26th on page 46 and as April 27th on page 48. I went ahead and changed it to "late
1198:
Well, if we're wrong then provide evidence if it isn't hard to check as you claim. Otherwise, you're wrong. Plain and simple. We're not gonna do your homework for you. You made the dispute, so it's your responsibility to prove your claim.
2281:
Just because there is no mention in articles or listing doesn't mean the book is incorrect. Newspapers.com isn't the only source available for film releases and is likely prone to missing articles/listings. What you've proven is that
