Here's the American English dubbed version of Ishiro Honda's "MOTHRA VS. GODZILLA", released as "GODZILLA VS. THE THING" in the United States and "GODZILLA VS. MOTHRA" on VHS.

This is afan-edit for Godzilla vs. Mothra 1992 meant to make it a more enjoyable experience by cutting out all of the cringey dialogue, dumb horribly-written pro-environmentalism stuff, bad special effects shots, and scenes that either don't make sense or do nothing for the plot. The original runtime was 1 hour and 48 minutes, now it's 1 hour and 24 minutes. Now that all of the bad stuff is removed, this movie is actually quite entertaining. List of changes: -For all times Godzilla's mouth is open and yet no roar sound is heard, the appropriate roar sound effect is added. -Cut the entire "Indiana Jones" homage intro scene in the temple. Instead, after the opening credits, it cuts to the scene where the environmental planning board leaders meet Takuya in prison. The exact crime he committed is never specified, but I don't feel as if it needs to be specifically explained, we just need to know he's a theif. -Cut out the entire part where Takuya refused to help out the environmental planning board. It's unnecessary and doesn't make sense, as even though they leave, he ends up on the expedition anyway (which is just confusing). Now the scene just ends with the environmental planning board leader nodding, implying that Takuya accepts the mission. -Battra's emergence is moved. -Cut the "Shall we land?" line when they are nearing Infant Island. -Cut the scene on Infant Island where they talk about the environment as they look at a wasteland, the bridge scene, and the scene where they travel on a raft. It cuts from them exploring the forest to the campfire scene. -Cut Andoh's line "Are you sure? Several thousand years? Could that be?" and Masako's line "That's hard to believe". We find cave paitings from several thousand years ago all the time, and this is a universe where kaiju are real. Why is this so unbelievable? -Deleted the lines about the Earth being offended and a living thing. Now, the Cosmos say "Scientists created a device to control Earth's climate, so it created the black Mothra". -Cut when the main trio talk about the environment with the Cosmos. After the Cosmos finish their story, Masako asks "Now that Mothra's egg has been exposed, what do you think will happen next?" and the Cosmos talk about Battra. -Cut both "What's happening?!" lines by the environmental planning board leaders, because both are unnecessary and the second one is just REALLY cringey. -Cut the scene with all of the environmentalists protesting against the Marutomo company. It's a pointless scene. Now the scene starts with the president getting a call from Andoh about Mothra's egg. -Battra's awakening, which has been placed after the Cosmos finish talking about Mothra and Battra, replaces the two scenes above. -Cut "Would you look at that, it's huge, isn't it?" line. It's been established multiple times that it's huge, no need to go on and on about it. -Cut the part where the guy on the radio talks about Battra approaching. -Cut "Where is it going to go now?" after Battra burrows away after destroying Nagoya. -Cut the "It's big" line before the line "Something big's approaching". This is because the former line is pointless due to the existence of the latter line. -Removed Godzilla firing his atomic breath from underwater and the characters looking out and saying "It's Godzilla!" because it's pointless for Godzilla to be firing his atomic breath at that moment as there is nothing to be firing at. -Shortened a lot of Takuya and Andoh's fight to make it not drag out and be less cheesy. -Cut "Oh no, they're getting pissed off!" line when Godzilla and Battra start fighting at sea. -Cut a couple awkward looking moments when Godzilla fights Battra larva where it looks like they are hugging each other. -Cut Takuya's "We better get out of here quicky!" line. -Cut some shots of the main cast reacting to the underwater volcano. Why are they reacting? It's underwater, it's not going to hurt them. -Cut the part during the Marutomo company meeting where the president was talking about getting a dollhouse for the Cosmos to live in. -Cut all of the nonsensical, contradictory stuff about the environment during Masako and Takuya's conversation at the airport (no, Masako, the Cosmos didn't come to try and protect the environment, they came because you were taking the Mothra egg with you). Now Masako is just rushing because she's concerned that Mothra will come to Japan to save the Cosmos. -The conversation with Masako and the two environmental planning board leaders now end's with "How selfish of them!" instead of more environment jibber jabber. -Cut one of the environmental planning board leaders telling another one to look at the screen. -Cut all of the shots where it's very clear Mothra larva is on wheels during her Tokyo rampage (which is basically all of the shots where you're looking at her from the front). And many more not listed here due to description limitations on Odysee.
