Kumi Mizuno Fan Group On Facebook Having Membership Drive

Written By: Ken Hulsey

I just wanted to quickly mention that "The KUMI MIZUNO Fan Club" on Facebook is presently holding a membership drive.

Though only 189 members strong, at present, this fan group boasts some very active perticipants and, what could be, the largest collection of Kumi Mizuno photographs anywhere on the Internet.

So who is Kumi Mizuno?

Really?

Okay, for those of you who aren't in the loop, Kumi Mizuno was quite literally Toho's golden girl of sci fi in the 1960's, and amazingly, the past decade.

The actresses list of credits include:

Yôsei Gorasu (1962) .... Takiko Nomura ... aka "Gorath" - USA
Matango (1963) .... Mami Sekiguchi - Singer ... aka "Attack of the Mushroom People" - USA
Furankenshutain tai chitei kaijû Baragon (1965) .... Dr. Sueko Togami ... aka "Frankenstein Conquers the World"
Kaijû daisenso (1965) .... Miss Namikawa ... aka "Godzilla vs. Monster Zero"
Furankenshutain no kaijû: Sanda tai Gaira (1966) .... Akemi ... aka "The War of the Gargantuas"
Gojira, Ebirâ, Mosura: Nankai no daiketto (1966) .... Daiyo... aka "Godzilla Versus the Sea Monster"
Gojira tai Mekagojira (2002) .... 1999 Prime Minister Machiko Tsuge ... aka "Godzilla X Mechagodzilla"
Gojira: Fainaru uôzu (2004) .... Earth Defense Force Commander Akiko Namikawa ... aka "Godzilla: Final Wars"

Whether playing a lovely island girl, an alien clone or the Prime Minister of Japan, Mizuno was the "beauty" opposite big G's "beast".

So if you are a big Toho sci fi and Godzilla movie fan, and if your not.....what are you doing here?, then you really need to jump on board.

Of course, being a Facebook member would help to. So, if your a big G fan, and on Facebook, go to The KUMI MIZUNO Fan Club

Here is what David Duke sent out to all the groups members:

Our ranks seem to be stuck at 179 members. Please tell your friends about the fun to be found at the KUMI MIZUNO Fan Club and ask them to become members. There are lots of great photos and films clips of our gal -- items of interest you won't find any place else on the Web.

Bonus: For ever new member who joins the Kumi Mizuno Fan Club I will personally ask our vice president Archie Waugh to plant a tree and save the planet. He won't do it, but I'll ask him.

Arigatou gozaimasu,
David Duke

Come on Archie....would it kill ya to plant a few hundred trees?

Everybody do the "Jumping Shie"!

"LEGENDARY PICTURES TO DEVELOP AND PRODUCE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE BASED ON TOHO COMPANY’S ICONIC MONSTER, GODZILLA

Burbank, CA – March 29, 2010 – Legendary Pictures announced today that they will develop and produce a new film based on Toho Company’s famed GODZILLA character. Through the terms of the agreement, Legendary Pictures has acquired the rights to produce a movie inspired by Toho’s Godzilla, a franchise the Japanese company created and has nurtured for over fifty years.

Toho’s GODZILLA franchise boasts one of the most widely recognized film creatures worldwide, resulting in a series of books, television programs, video games and more than 25 films worldwide. Legendary intends to approach the film and its characters in the most authentic manner possible. The company will, in the near future, announce a filmmaker to helm the film for an intended 2012 release. The film will fall under the company’s co-production and co-financing deal with Warner Bros. Toho will distribute the film in Japan."

"Godzilla" is coming back -- this time, with Legendary Pictures taking the lead, co-producing and co-financing with Warner Bros. for release in 2012.

Legendary announced Monday it had obtained rights to the iconic monster character from Japan's Toho Co., which has overseen more than 25 "Godzilla" films. Toho will release the pic in Japan.

Legendary said it's planning to announce a director shortly.

In addition to Legendary, producers on the new film will be Dan Lin, Roy Lee and Brian Rogers. Yoshimitsu Banno, Kenji Okuhira and Doug Davison will exec produce.

"Godzilla is one of the world's most powerful pop culture icons, and we at Legendary are thrilled to be able to create a modern epic based on this long-loved Toho franchise," said Thomas Tull, Chairman and CEO of Legendary. "Our plans are to produce the Godzilla that we, as fans, would want to see. We intend to do justice to those essential elements that have allowed this character to remain as pop-culturally relevant for as long as it has."

Legendary noted the film will fall under its co-production and co-financing deal with Warner Bros. Legendary's productions with Warners have included "The Dark Knight," "300" and "The Hangover."

Speculation about a new "Godzilla" has been active since last summer. The Bloody Disgusting web site reported in August that the project was in development.
