Maybe, not all too familiar with the genre... unless you count the Monsterverse lol

Godzilla: Making cinematic universes and continuity reboots before Marvel and DC made it cool.

I think it would.

I've only seen the beginning ten min. of War of The Gargantuas.

Outstanding move.

Ah, so my stupidity has served a purpose! Thank you!

The arrogance of man is thinking that nature is in our control, and not the other way around.

LET THEM FIGHT.

 That's cool.

Okay.

Monster_Zero 2112

Just read through our previous comments and you'll understand what we'e talking about. 

What?

As a popular song by Sum 41 that made it's way into Final Wars says, "We're All To Blame."

Ah, sorry. Didn't know they were in a separate continuity.

Gotta blame myself too.

Oh yeah, forgot. My bad.

Monster_Zero 2112 Our control. Remember that if you're going to criticize the actions of humanity as a species, you're including yourself in there too.

Dude, that's @^%$ing awesome! I can't wait too!

True. Mankind thinks that nature is in there control, but it's not.

When you really think about it, it really is Dr. Russell's fault through and through. It was her who woke up King Ghidorah in the first place in her mad rush to "save the world" from an environmental apocalypse. But in doing so, she only made things worse for everyone by waking up Ghidorah of all creatures, which, coupled with Rodan's awakening, spooked the US government into firing the Oxygen Destroyer at Godzilla, putting him out of commission and allowing Ghidorah to hijack Emma's plan.

Also, isn't ironic that Emma Russell accuses humanity of dominating and exploiting nature, when she herself is doing the same thing by forcibly awakening the Titans with the ORCA?

And in the end, she can't even really fix it. All she does in the climax is distract Ghidorah long enough for Godzilla to get his third wind. But the damage is still done; thousands–maybe even millions–of people are now dead. And even with all the benefits that the Titans bring, nobody can deny the havoc and destruction that they have caused, and it's going to be a long climb back to some semblance of normalcy.

"History shows again and again, how nature points out the folly of Man."

There's only two kaijus that we know would live underground: Megalon and Baragon.

I highly recommend it. It's awesome, and as far as I'm aware, it is the only Godzilla film to be made by a pacifist.

If that doesn't say awesome, then I don't know what does.

What's going on here?

Godzilla x MechaGodzilla is not in the same continuity as GMK at all. Godzilla x MechaGodzilla and Tokyo S.O.S. take place in a completely separate continuity usually referred to as the Kiryu Saga.

The only films in the GMK continuity are the 1954 film and GMK. (And arguably the 1998 movie--Though its reference is really just an in-joke.)

The different continuities of the series are:

THE SHOWA CONTINUITY

Rodan
Varan
Mothra
King Kong vs. Godzilla

At the end of GMK, he was disintegrated until there was only a heart left, and the end .shot clearly showed it was still beating. Since, GAM is the next in the continuity and Godzilla returned, I at least THINK it's implied that it's the same Godzilla and he regenerated, BUT I don't know for sure since I still haven't seen GAM.

When did he ever regenerate from a heart?

... Woulda thought that second part would be more suited for GAM Godzilla since he regenerated from a heart... and before hand he had "soul energy" that completely exited him...

So is this...

G. H. (Gman)

Wait, that's a thing?!!!

G.H. (Gman)

Ah, still haven't seen those two I'm afraid. Well, I watched Godzilla V.S. Megaguirus when I was a kid, but it's been so long that I forgot almost everything except my mother made a joke how I'd never do for her what the Meganula did for Megaguirus and that Godzilla survived two black holes lol.

TheLazyFish,
There are exceptions, however. In Godzilla x Megaguirus it's clearly stated that Godzilla attacked in 1954, but was not killed. The events in that continuity do not follow the same events from 1954 that we're used to. That Godzilla appeared in 1954 and returned in 1966 & 1996 before the events of the film in 2001.

The Final Wars Godzilla is the same way. He appeared in 1954, but was not killed. Just sealed away for many years before the X invasion in "20XX".

G. H. (Gman) Thanks for the confirmation.

JurassicKaiju14,
Yes. Before godzilla.jp was turned into the Godzilla Store's official website, it was Toho's official Godzilla website.

The godzilla.jp confirmed the Godzilla in Godzilla 2000 was the second after 1954 in the circled paragraph of this screenshot:


Translated to English:
"The huge monster that suddenly appeared at Cape Nofuku in Hokkaido was the second Godzilla after the one that had landed in Tokyo in 1954. This Godzilla appeared in Ibaraki Prefecture and a battle between Godzilla and a huge UFO broke out. Finally, the UFO revealed it was the monster Orga from space that evolved by taking the cells of Godzilla's body!"

Though this isn't mentioned in either the Japanese or American versions, I highly recommend watching the Japanese version for a different tonal take on the film. Not to mention the fact some creepy moments were cut from the American version.

JurassicKaiju14

It's not directly stated if I remember right, but there's two because it's like Godzilla Returns in 1984. It resets the timeline to take place after the first movie, which means that Godzilla 1954 took place. Since the Godzilla in that movie died, that has to mean the one in Godzilla 2000 is a separate individual, especially when considering the very different design and somewhat different powers as well. 

G. H. (Gman) "There are two Godzillas in the Godzilla 2000 continuity."

Is there an official source for that? I don't recall that being mentioned in the film. Then again, I've only seen the American version, so it's likely not the most accurate source.

The Millennium and Reiwa monikers are not continuities but eras.

The Millennium era has 5 continuities. Reiwa has 2.

There are two Godzillas in the Godzilla 2000 continuity.

There's only one Godzilla in the Godzilla x Megaguirus continuity.

Two in the GMK continuity.

Two in the Kiryu Saga continuity.

Two in the Final Wars continuity. (Minilla is the second.)

One in the Shin continuity.

And finally two in the Anime continuity.

Well, Dagon never got a pronoun besides "it." 

"Is... is it him?"

"No... this is much older."

And then Dagon's never referred to again. Dagon was intentionally left ambiguous, so we can wonder what kind of relation Dagon had with Godzilla, if any. 

Hmmm I think I might be using the wrong word but I wasn't calling any scientist sexist. But yeah there were several concepts cancelled films of introducing a female godzilla.

Also Godzilla himself has been in several continuities all of them male or given male pronouns.

Showa has three Godzillas: Original, Second Godzilla, and Minilla

Heisei has three godzillas: Original, Second Godzilla, and Godzilla Jr.

Tri-star has the most Godzillas: Mama "Daddy" Zilla, Zilla Jr, and legions of Baby Godzillas

Millienium has seven godzillas?: Original, Second Godzilla (G2k), Second Godzilla (GvMG), GMK Godzilla, Kiryu Saga Godzilla, Final Wars Zilla, Final Wars Godzilla and Final Wars Minilla (Yes Included Zilla as a type of Godzilla)

Monsterverse has two Godzilla: Dagon/Adam and Godzilla

Reiwa has three Godzillas: Shin Godzilla (not counting his multiform 5th form), Godzilla filius, and Godzilla Earth
