OLD = BAD
It's not rocket science, right?

I would, kind of. You should really capitalize all the first letters of worlds in a title with the exception of conjunctions and prepositions.Tamura wrote:Alright, who wants to continue discussing the wording of my thread’s title?
If we are talking about the new Eva, that’s definitely a bad dub, but I hope nothing similar would happen to the franchise.G2000 wrote:Just saying, seemed a little dramaticMalchik wrote:Your mind went there not mine.
Definitely a tad wary of this though. I don’t generally watch the dubs in the first place so it doesn’t hit me that hard, but the Netflix redub of Eva was hard to listen to after years of hearing the ADV voices so I can sympathize with those upset that the dubs they in many cases grew up with are getting replaced
The English dubs you named are literally all English versions that Toho continues to use.realinvaderdesign wrote:To be fair, alot of the dubs (especially tomg and all of the hesei movies)are rough so it doesn't surprise me if toho really wants rid of old dubs
The existing English versions Toho uses already correspond to the Japanese versions of those films. Dubbed versions that are structurally different from the Japanese versions are the exception to the norm, and Toho has mostly already suppressed those.If toho isn't fond of the english dubs then maybe they should do newer ones that are closer to the japanese cuts
They're a part of film & cultural history. And as Tamura has said, "Creating new dubs and preserving the old ones aren't mutually exclusive goals."tyrantgoji wrote:i never really got why so many people cared that some are gonna be gone,the old ones were never my favorite.
This likely already exists, and has since approx. 1962, but its release anywhere in the world has never been confirmed.Chaotic-Strike wrote:Heck seeing the original Japanese Godzilla vs. King Kong get a new dub with the original score would be worth it.
That is interesting, but I still don't really see Toho putting in the effort over here to make new ones when the international dubs exists.Tamura wrote:I don't know about mainland China but tons of Toho's kaiju films were released in Mandarin dubs in the '60s and '70s in Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Most dubbing countries have released dubs of these films at some point. This is and has always been a well-known and widely distributed franchise throughout the world, and not just in Europe and Latin America. I have seen ads for these films from regions as disparate as Iceland and Pakistan. I don't think there is a single spot in the whole world where these films received little exposure.
I think Toho would have released it by now or footage would have surfaced if it existed. I've certainly never seen anything other than the trailer dubbed and that could have been done just for it.Terasawa wrote:This likely already exists, and has since approx. 1962, but its release anywhere in the world has never been confirmed.Chaotic-Strike wrote:Heck seeing the original Japanese Godzilla vs. King Kong get a new dub with the original score would be worth it.
There's a trailer and documentation in Toho's own sales catalogs from the era. From Toho Films: 1963...Chaotic-Strike wrote:I think Toho would have released it by now or footage would have surfaced if it existed.
