I found an old newspaper article for a scrapped movie.

For the discussion of Toho produced and distributed films or shows released before 1980.

I found an old newspaper article for a scrapped movie.

This 1979 article from The Wilmington Star went over the "upcoming" Godzilla movie that was planned for release in 1980 (better known as the first draft for The Return of Godzilla). It doesn't go into much detail, because it was still in the planning stages, and no script had been created at the time the article was written. I just thought I would share it, because there was an interview with Tomoyuki Tanaka.

(P.S.: If you read the subtitle for the image to the right, it states that King Kong and Godzilla fought in 1974; not 1962.)

Sounds alittle bit like the suppose remake "King of Monsters:Rebirth of Godzilla".

There has never been a "Scientifically Accurate" Dinosaur portrayed on any Television Show, Movie, or Documentary. Only what the human imagination can conceive, and I'm ok with that.
