Talk:Godzilla (TriStar)/@comment-32726413-20180520054047

I am surprised Toho did not take over the rights of the Tistar film. I assume that in order to do that, they would have to have control over Tristar. I assume that the only way the 98 film is retitled right now is if Tristar decides to do so, which I highly doubt they will. It was their movie and Toho lent them the rights to use the name. Nevertheless, the movie should not count towards the total film and as an unofficial stand alone film. If it were not for the title, then I would not be surprised if the film would have received as much negative fan reaction, and instead treated as an average kaiju flick.
