| The
blaze of a crimson inferno envelops this Toho Video
release of Godzilla
2000: Millennium (1999). Featuring the subtitle:
"Godzilla vs. Orga" on the front and an
assortment of contrasting cool-hued still shots on
the back, this powerful cover shows off the strength
and raw power of the star monsters with every iota
of their energetic presence. |

| The
last Godzilla movie to see VHS incarnation stateside,
this 2000 Columbia/Tristar release features frontside
art from the American theatrical poster art for
Godzilla
2000: Millennium (1999). Also of note on
the cover is the ominous appearance of Orga's face
in the background; staring at Godzilla as if to
challenge the king for supremacy of the Earth. It
also features the film's theatrical tagline "Get
Ready to Crumble". Another aspect about the
front is that the title and Godzilla himself have
raised surfaces, giving them a somewhat 3D feel.
The back of the box features an in-film shot of
Godzilla unleashing his incorrectly termed "furious
heat beam" in the film description that should
be labeled as "Godzilla's atomic heat ray".
Also, the line "Godzilla - who's just crushed
the entire city", is pretty much a
gross hyberbole. The back also has a still of the
Millennian UFO taking off from a building top to
avoid G's heat ray. Each side of the box has the
same setup: a picture of Godzilla at the top, the
title in the middle, and a still of the UFO departing
a destroyed building top at the bottom. The VHS's
dubbing is as good as American dubbing can get;
and, as is usual with other Tristar releases, some
of the dubbing is off lip-sync. All-in-all, the
box is an exceptional piece in any true G-Fan's
VHS collection. |

Boasting an array of vibrant, spicy hues, the front
cover of this VHS features Godzilla and several
of his foes, while the back includes a rather accurate
description surrounded by warplane silhouettes.
One of only two VHS releases of the 1998-99 Godzilla
animated series, this volume contains the famous
3-part episode "Monster War". |
