The Legendary Beast Wolfman vs. Godzilla: How does the fandom feel?

MemberBaragonDec-13-2017 2:09 PMI remember sometime after Godzilla 2014 had been released, I was browsing the internet, looking for any news about the sequel. I hadn’t joined this forum yet, so I had no set location to find information. I just browsed and read through anything I could find. I just happened upon the Sci-Fi Japan article that everyone is familiar with describing the strange and odd journey that is The Legendary Beast Wolfman vs. Godzilla.
I was literally blown away. I could not believe that this film existed whatsoever. The idea fascinated me, a giant Wolfman fighting Godzilla? It was exactly as crazy as any plot of a Godzilla before. It wasn’t just the plot that fascinated me, I loved the idea of a group of filmmakers just deciding to hell with it, they were going to make a Godzilla movie themselves.
My main questions to you guys are:
- How shocked were you when you discovered that this movie existed?
- Do you think it will ever be released? (The director, Shizuo Nakajima, has stated that he is in talks with Toho for a release, but the negotiations are indeed slow. He is currently working on completing the editing.)
- Have you been on Shizuo Nakajima’s Facebook? He post regular updates and behind the scenes photos for the movie.
- Would you purchase it? More specifically, would you include it in the canon as an official Godzilla movie if it was given an official DVD release with Toho’s blessing?
