Japan has reported an updated schedule for the
film festival running at the Egyptian Theatre in Los
Angeles, California. The event will now run for the
weekend only, from June 30th to July 2nd. In total,
there are eight different features attached to the
event, although the show is running relatively light
in regards to Toho productions this year as only Godzilla
(1954), Godzilla
2000: Millennium (1999) and Godzilla,
Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack
(2001) made the cut, the latter of which is the Japanese
version while the previous two are the edited US ones.
Other features to be shown at the festival
include: The Great Yokai War, Negadon:
The Monster from Mars, episodes from the TV show
Ultraman Max directed by Shusuke
Kaneko and Takashi Miike. The event will also
showcase the US premieres of Gamera the Brave
and Mirror Man: Reflex.
Guests for the event include Terry
Morse Jr. and Michael Schlesinger, who created the
US edit for Godzilla
2000: Millennium (1999), along with some
of the crew at Classic Media who will give the crowd
a taste of their upcoming Godzilla DVDs.
Ticket prices to the showing, including
the double features, are $9 for general admission,
$7 for students and seniors, and $6 for members of
the American Cinematheque. The theater is located
at 6712 Hollywood Blvd, Hollywood California. For
