So this is legit?
Gee wiz what a story and a differnt one too, but I don't think that will happen.
Idk thats what i am wondering.
The MUTOs are not a specific group of monsters; MUTO will most likely be a codename for the monsters. Thus, the MUTOs do not "look like" mantises, only one of them does.
And there probably will only be two monsters that Godzilla will fight.
I think keeping it as the wrath of nature incarnated as a living being is enough for me.
Well, I'm certainly not denying that a nuke could be effctive against Godzilla. The heat and radiation aren't the problem, but the concussive force is. I doubt any monster could survive it unscathed. Yep, Godzilla would probably "die" from such an attack. Just like how the original creature that existed before becoming Godzilla "died" from prehistoric radiation.
The same radiation which resurrected it into a walking fossil that replaced the key components of its underlying genetic structure with stronger elements that allowed sturdier and denser body structures like bones and skin to withstand impossibly large amounts of pressure and trauma and be able to stay accurate to the Square Cube Law without faltering under its own weight and produce exotic effects like the atomic breath.
Yep, Godzilla could definitely "die" by a nuke.
Now for the most part I agree with the general concept of the game. I do think that as opposed to a plot driven game, it should play like a giant version of the game infamous or grand theft auto. What I mean is there should be goals but nothing necessary or super pressing like health drop throughout without power replenishment, but a more gradual drop would be fine so long as the player is willing to player at say 80% power capacity. The war of the monsters idea is great for the fighting portion! theres no reason it has to go into hyper lumbering realism with no jumping or the 70s godzilla mobility. Perhaps you could even had DLC of some sort with alternate playable characters like anguiras, baragon, or even jet jaguar/ultraman. I love the underwater idea, maybe even have the whales and sharks as edible items if they're big enough? and HOLY CRAP please after so many years of monster games lets add a character creation mode or something!.. along with an alternate arcade style fighting mode along the lines of destroy all monsters melee just for the folks not satisfied with a monster fight in a fully built up city...
sorry that was longer than i expected lol
I feel you're really looking too closely at the movie. Some of the things you addressed did turn out. for instance Yuki's blood bullet was used at the end on Space Godzilla along with everything else that was thrown around, so there was at least a point to that, and Godzilla's armpit being weak is just a theory as every movie likes to come up with some sort of theory on how to beat him when he's not portrayed as a protagonist. As for spaceGodzilla's origin I know you have a preference behind the monsters having some mystery, but I'm sure some people like back stories so that's really opinion based. While I found the whole cells subjected to star explosions and thrown into black holes ridiculous too, it was a Godzilla movie so that fact the title included a Godzilla of some sorts from space had me throw my disbelief out the door before the movie began. I don't have a problem with his origin including mothra or Biollante as when the scientists were theorizing where he came from they simply named 2 times Godzilla cells went into outer space. When you are looking for an answer to something and there are multiple ways it could happen of course you'd address both, so I don't see it being a big deal that they talked about both Biollante and Mothra, even if it is clear it was Biollante that spawned SpaceGodzilla just a way to hammer in the continuity of the heisei era.
@DURPOO4 - Yeah that is very true, last night I watched Godzilla vs The Sea Monster on VHS which is like 30 years old and it was in such terrible shape. Imagine it in like another 50 years or so...THE DAMN THING WON'T EVEN BE ABLE TO PLAY!!!!
1. Talaghan doesn't exist.
2. That's a reflection.
3. Shaddap.
God no. It was stupid in GMK and while it would make more sense in this setting it's still stupid to have souls reincarnate as a radioactive monster
I really like this idea. The mystical origin of Godzilla, who is created by the souls of the killed soldiers is great, but in my opinion doesen't macht the realism of the movie.
Well since things like video cassettes are already near useless and that's what most of my Godzilla movies are I doubt they'd survive for the amount of years it'd take for me to die anyway
If Kensho Yamashita was trying to go for a Showa feel, he missed the mark big time... No wonder he never directed a movie again.
I thought Godzilla vs Spacegodzilla was the worst movie of the heisei era, however I still think it was a pretty good movie. Spacegodzilla's powers are all based off energy so it didn't really bother me that there wasn't much hand to hand fighting as that's never been a strong point of any godzilla movie. The only movie to do that well in my opinion was Godzilla Raids Again, once beams, lasers and energy attacks came into play that went out the window.
I think the director was going for a showa feel hence why baby Godzilla looked like minilla, and space godzilla was a throwback to the old alien monsters.
Godzilla was created from a nuke. He also feeds on energy, the intial blast will hurt him, but when he absorbs all the energy around him it won't even matter.
and @AMARTIN35... WHAT? Godzilla was killed by a Oxygen Destroyer created by Dr. Serizawa, not a nuke.
It is likely that they might but then again maybe not with the movie coming out in 3 1/2 months. They might do one in the next 2 months. I am not 100% sure. How much does it cost to go?
These threads are getting on my nerves
Please don't post it if it doesn't work, if it won't work for anyone else, why in the hell would it work for you? oh wait, it doesn't.
...
That is the second threat, I visited today, where the link to a picture doesen`t work.
Moinster??!! WTF??!!!!!!!!
plus, some of hiz spines will go missing for sum rezon!
well Godzillafan1995, according to the script, it says they will not glow :P
yeah iv seen the trailer Godzilla Himself!!! (Duh!)
oh, and the wierd spine on the tail... i know :P
well, in the 1st part of the script, in 1954, a nuke is being prepared, it launches, then Godzilla rises from an island suddenly, he attacks the nuke head on then... he dies in a nukular explosion!
(honest, its from the real scritp guys)
Godzilla needs a neck like this, otherwise he'd be stiff. Really, there are very few animals that don't have this, other than Giraffes and creatures with deer-like physique.
I've tried to keep it close to what I think he looks like in the trailer.

Im fine if its hanging but not hanging too much.
@InstinctiveGigan - I AGREE. Who gives a damn, Godzilla is just a made up creature. Just the fact that a mutated lizard standing 300 feet is unrealistic.
That is a pretty creative story.
"Film ads rarely make the lists of most-remembered spots after the game."
Oh, gee. Look. Something I've been saying over and over again.
Nope, expect it Feb. 7th. Can't confirm it but I can sure as heck guarantee it.
Godzilla is a fictional character, therefore all logic and science goes out the friggin' window. So no, a nuke cannot kill Godzilla whatsoever, if it could they'd have done it by now in at least one Godzilla film. Is this topic all the norm nowadays, this is like the 3rd discussion relating to it.
As long as they keep Simon Strange away from it, I'll play it.
I really don't feel like forking out money to play a bad fighting game.
I'd rather have a game with a rich, deep single player experience.
It certainly did feel rushed, which explains almost any flaw when a film fails, but this is a whole different level of incompitence:
- Project T - What use did this have for the story? The idea to control Godzilla was interesting, but it never works and it never plays into the final battle. When you write something to take up this much of the movie their should be some sort of payoff for it during the final act. There is literally zero reason for Project T to be in the story except to have the Japanese mafia use it... which also had no purpose in the story. It had no bearing on the final act either. That entire Project-T story arc could have been left out of the movie and it wouldn't have made a lick of difference on anything that happened. It literally a waste of 20 minutes in the film.
- Miki Seagusa - For the first time since Godzilla vs. Biollante she's given something more relevant to do... or atleast the movie is trying to trick us into thinking that. There's a bad love story revolving around her and... why did the Japanese mafia need to kidnap her? Other than to force a rescue attempt anyway... Not to mention Megumi Odaka does the exact opposite thing she's done in the previous movies and underacts instead of overact. And why do the Cosmos thank her for saving the Earth? Godzilla and the crew for MOGUERA did all the work. She does nothing except help Yuki and Koji, but she certainly didn't have a hand in saving the Earth.
- Yuki - Why does he suddenly like Godzilla by the end of the movie? Supposedly Godzilla "saved his life" during the battle, but we all know that was accidental. He would have as well. The entire movie builds up how much he hates Godzilla to the point where he actually manuevers MOGUERA to attack Godzilla instead of SpaceGodzilla. (Which was dumb anyway, he should've known the other two would try to stop him.) The way Yuki decides Godzilla is a "wonderful creature" at the end is about as contrived and stupid as it gets. There's no development throughout the movie to make him believe that. He simply decides he doesn't hate Godzilla anymore at the end because the movie needs him to.
- Godzilla's Armpit - So we're supposed to believe that Godzilla has a soft spot under his arm that a bullet can penetrate... and the military and other monsters somehow missed this in the last five movies? Right.
- Blood Bullet - Yuki's bullet had a very detailed explaination for how it worked... so what? It just goes away and we never hear from it again? It's like Project T, it's a plot point that's made a big deal out of early in the movie and then just dropped. Nothing happens with it and there's no payoff with it. Was he not going to try again? Why didn't he try an install a weapon like that on MOGUERA if he was going to disobey orders and attack Godzilla anyway? Besides, how does he know Godzilla has a soft spot under his arm? Why hasn't G-Force exploited this?
- The Astroid Battle - Need I say more? It's 1994. There's no excuse for a Godzilla movie or other tokusatsu, television or film, to have this poor of special effects. The monsters look tiny, the astroids are goofy, the lighting is way too bright... this scene was doomed upon filming.
- SpaceGodzilla - Annoying, overexplained origin that leaves out any mysteriousness about the creature. Infact the writers gave two explainations for him: Biollante going into space and Mothra with Godzilla's flesh on her. Why do we need multiple explainations? Why do we need this much information? Leave some of this unexplained so it adds a layer of creepiness to the movie. Meanwhile, SpaceGodzilla's design is cool, but the suit is awful. It barely moves, I don't think we ever see it actually walk forward and it lacks the animatronic facial movements that Godzilla has. Not to mention all of its powers are based on long-range beam attacks. The monster was practically made for lots of lightening and hardly any physical attacks. And anyone notice how the spikes on his back also looked like styrofoam icecubs? Was not impressed...
- Fairy Mothra - What was the point of the Cosmos sending out a warning to Miki about SpaceGodzilla? It's not like they gave her any new information. Miki didn't even tell anyone that Mothra and the Cosmos had warned her. The information is redundant and pointless. All it does it tell the audience what they can figure out on their own.
- Little Godzilla - An update of Minya that no one wanted. Unlike vs. MechaGodzilla II or vs. Destroyah, Little Godzilla serves no purpose to the plot whatsoever. He simply gets imprisoned by SpaceGodzilla. And why does SpaceGodzilla imprison him? What's the point? To lure Godzilla to Tokyo? Well that seems pointless because SpaceGodzilla landed on Bass Island to fight Godzilla; why didn't he just kill Godzilla there? It was the most Disney-evil-villain thing any monster in the Godzilla series has done. It was goofy and needless to the story.
- The Final Battle - There's no urgency to it. The MOGUERA crew talk and move slowly like they have all the time in the world to avoid SpaceGodzilla's attacks. It's slow paced, long winded and boring. More than any other Heisei battle this features monsters and vehicles just sitting around, shooting beams. I think around the point where Godzilla bites SpaceGodzilla is when I woke up and realized something different was happening for a change. Even the characters were surprised Godzilla was biting him.
- Fukuoka Tower - Toho is known for being pretty articulate about buildings crumbling. Even the weakest miniatures in the series have a sense of massive crumbling to them. But when Godzilla starts hitting Fukuoka Tower to knock it over... nothing happens. The entire tower is made of glass and nothing shatters when his massive claws slash against it? It doesn't start crumbling until the tower actually falls. Kawikita really blew it with that one. Especially since it was suppose to be the centerpiece of the destruction.
- Recycling Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II's Ending - Because this movie was a gulf of bad ideas and throw away ideas, they couldn't come up with a more creative way to defeat SpaceGodzilla. Somehow SpaceGodzilla was "emitting energy," I suppose because his shoulder crystals were destroyed --the script is too stupid to explain things that matter-- and it causes Godzilla to regain his Death Ray. I'm not so much complaining about the reason he can use his Death Ray again. I just think it's sad the filmmakers couldn't come up with anything better.
There's probably more, but the real problems with this movie lie in the screenwriting. There's so many usless ideas here and plenty more that don't make sense. So many things are overlooked and everything else is just executed as badly. Honda and Tsuburaya were facepalming in their graves when this was released and I can see why Ifukube passed on scoring it.
The American Godzilla vs a Nuke, well let's consider the following aspects of a Nuke.
1: High force, particularly at the "ground zero"
2: Extreme Heat
3: Nuclear Radiation
Now several critters, such as certain insects and microbes, have shown to be resiliant or unharmed by Nuclear Radiation. The American Godzilla may even use it as fuel for its Atomic Breath.
A chemist called Maurice Ward (died in 2011) created a material called Starlite could withstand the temperature of even a Nuclear bomb. The test, for example, had it wrapped around an egg with a flamethrower blowing on it. After the several minute blast the Starlite was removed... and the egg was room temperature! It's possible for the American Godzilla to have a heat resiliance so high that even a Nuke's heat wouldn't be a threat. Deep sea critters that thrive at hydrothermal vents have to be able to withstand some 600 degrees (Fahrenheit) so it's possible.
Now the extreme pressure, considering the American Godzilla's armored hide, it's possible even this wouldn't hurt Godzilla. Now I don't know the full strength of the armor for that info hasn't been released yet. For realism, a tough yet light armor is realistic as opposed to the super speed regeneration.
Now a nuke could get kill Godzilla if it exploded in its stomach. Though how do you sneak a Nuke in there would be a 'Mission Impossible' task alone.
Personally, I plan to be buried with the first Godzilla I recieved from my dad when I was 4 years old. I will probably end up buying my kids Godzillas to play with when they reach the age appropriate because my collection consists of a couple that you should not remove from the shelf. When I die I want my first Godzilla buried with me and the rest either my kids can split or they can be sold and the money used towards my grandchildren's college funds. And just for kicks I'd probably have "Requiem" from Gojira or "Requiem" from Godzilla vs. Destoroyah played at my funeral hahaha :D
