** According to an interview with Steve Wang, the director of the first live action film ([[PromotedFanboy and a fan of the original anime and manga]]), the film's producer Brian Yuzna wanted to make a kids film out of the licence, while Wang wanted to keep the original tone of the series. This ended up resulting with the two having big fights over the film's direction and Wang getting zero creative control at all.
** If that isn't bad enough, the DVD was released as a DirectorsCut, which added a few scenes and transitions.... and cut all the violence out. By the way, Wang had nothing to do with it despite the cut labeled as such; it was Yuzna who commissioned it.



** The Creator/VizMedia and Star Comics English translations of the manga. Unless the other Volumes are translated anytime soon, good luck finding those anywhere (Don't get too worried about the manga however, There are plenty fan translations around).
** The unedited version of the first live action film from it's release on VHS. Why? As mentioned under ExecutiveMeddling, the DVD cut all the violence out of the film.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In the second live action film, the Ancients' spaceship plays a key role. They were ''thiiiiis'' close to setting up Guyver Gigantic.
** While on the subject of the live action Guyver films, imagine WhatCouldHaveBeen with the first film had Steve Wang been allowed to make the movie he wanted to make...
