G. H. (Gman)Godzilla ForumWill "World of Godzilla" Connect To The MonsterVerse?

If there's a God, it won't.

Frankly, I'm skeptical about this supposed "World of Godzilla" happening to begin with. While Toho keeps things pretty close to the vest, the last word about this idea wasn't even an official announcement. It was merely Keiji Ota musing on ideas he called a, "potential strategy" (emphasis on "potential") all the way in 2018. A lot happens in three years.

I have no doubt a new chapter of the franchise is on the way, but I'm not convinced it's another Toho shared universe. (Which they've already done anyway.)

I personally want a connection that's very loosely based so the stories can be more original in my opinion...

Well King Kong was the more popular monster at the time, and it would’ve been really bold and controversial for Toho to say, “OUR MONSTER IS BETTER”

 

But I’m on their side

Frankly it depends on whether a person knows anything about law of conservation of energy.

Most of the physics is literally, 4d objects interact with time. Post ep 8 there aren’t much lectures to be had.

But honestly I feel it caters to those who have some grasp on more advanced physics.

It's funny how the American monster won in the Japanese movie and the Japanese monster won in the American movie.

Honestly, I've seen smart people who think it's overly confusing and hard to understand...

Well darn, I guess Godzilla did deserve the victory in 2021 then...

HinikunaGoji,
It's well earned. I'm sure this will just the first of many noms for the series.

G. H. (Gman)Godzilla ForumDo Human Characters Matter in Kaiju Films?

Even when the characters don't work, I don't think having characters in a kaiju film ever feels forced--In fact it feels very natural. These stories are by and large about how people react to a world inhabited by monsters and what that means for them. That's about 90% of what the genre is right there.

they felt a lot more natural in Singular Point, and I’m not sure I would describe it as forced.

I loved the first scene in KOTM

Official English Toho press release:

Xenotaris,
Mothra vs. Godzilla was the fight's aftermath.

G. H. (Gman)Godzilla (Toho) NewsShin Ultraman gets new 2022 release date and teaser trailer!

I'm excited based solely on the creative team behind it, but I really think should've gone the enhanced CG suitmation route on this one. I'm glad they've been working on the effects this past year, but it's not quite impressing like Shin Godzilla did.

It's also going to have to go a long way to beat out Ultraman: The Next, which was essentially the last "adult" Ultra reboot. That film still tops a lot of kaiju movies today.

So nobody won still since Godzilla returned anyway, you just proved my point.

Reply
sonictigerGodzilla ForumDo Human Characters Matter in Kaiju Films?

Listen, human characters feel rather forced and unjustified these days.  The only characters that I felt had a justified reason to show up were the Brodys and the Russells and even then they were largely unneeded.

美しいGodzilla ForumDifferent versions and looks of Godzilla

I love  all of the Godzilla suits. If I had to pick one, it'd probably be one of the Monsterverse/ legendary era Godzillas. They have such great details and they look  so realistic!

美しいGodzilla ForumDo Human Characters Matter in Kaiju Films?

Even though the movies mostly focus on kaijus, the human characters still count as well.  There are a few movies in which a human helps Godzilla defeat a kaiju. An example is Godzilla (2014). It would either be a short, mini movie or Godzilla would've been killed.

HinikunaGoji,
I guess if it's a Disney situation and they talk and sing. Otherwise, the furthest this concept could get as a viable storytelling piece is a short.

Xenotaris

Exactly. 

You could have a kaiju movie without humans and having it focus on the monsters and anthropomorphizing them.

It depends on what story you want to tell.

Ummmm depends if they are crucial to the plot like the Fords from 2014 or Emiko and Serizawa from the 1954 original

Yes but it was Kong that surfaced, Godzilla was no where in sight, his fate was unknown until the obvious sequel Ghidorah: The Three Headed Monster
