@Chris Hey man! It really has been a while haha, how have you been? The name change has actually been a thing for almost 2 years now, it was about time I applied it here too. Its my official handle on pretty much everything now. Can't wait to see what universe you cook up. Give us a peek soon!
@SarcasticGoji Ah so you're trying your own SP-style route with him but applying a brutal nature concept to it. That's not a bad idea at all! For your timeline that's also a pretty interesting route to go with. Cementing it as grounded lore. I'd watch that.
@SasquaDash That's fair enough. If you'd like you can still try to summarize it in here :)
@TexanGodzilla I like the extended MV style here while also making note that you'd change aspects of them to fit your own vision. It's always cool to see how someone would rework it into something on a grander scale!
@sonictiger no worries, the post will still be here!
Breathtaking. I think the Hong Kong HEAV scene in GvK would also be fit for a ride like this.
2014 is definitely the best for me. Its gloomy, mysterious tone, its slow yet elaborate buildup and the sensational score are all superbly handled. Godzilla had a majestic feel to him, and the brilliant sense of scale only elevated that.
The MUTOS are unlike any other creature, and yet it still feels believable. Their differences in sex are also very interesting.
The monster battles is quite dark, but it contributes to the film's vibe. Gareth saved everything for the third act, and it satisfied in the end.
Also the way the monsters moved, the way they behaved, felt like real animals. Godzilla in KoTM and GvK had facial expressions, which was nice, but it took away the brute animal-like feel to the creatures and gave them a godlike sense. I actually preferred the former. Quoting Bryan Cranston, "Godzilla is a beast and you have to face it."
I’m going to japan. No one can stop me
I really liked how sharp the spines looked in 2014. It made him look a bit more threatening and menacing, but I'd still have to go for the 2019 spines as the shape is so iconic to the character!
In Godzilla Aftershock, the Muto Prime shatters his spines, so he regrew them.
It’s funny you notice the name change because I discovered it through a bug on his member page.
Anyway, another concept I have is that anguirus isn’t even a different kaiju from Godzilla at all. First bipedal minya, then. the anguirus stage, and then finally adult Godzilla. I mainly decided this to separate my Godzilla from the other ones in the continuity. Godzilla 3, if you will, is much more savage and brutal than the other two. The killing of the “Anguirus” juvenile is meant to stress this brutality.
Is that a good idea?
I have my own idea for a Godzilla trilogy, however it's too big to fit in a comment so I'll make a post about.
*Added a poll to this topic since Polls weren't an option when I started this topic originally*
This should be a fun topic! I'll post my ideas shortly once I flesh them out properly.
Side note, nice to see you again ChrisRemix / MilqueChocolate, been a while! What inspired the name change? Hahaha
Looking forward to this! Glad we don't have to wait too much longer.
2019 spines definitely improved on the 2014 design. The reference to 1954's original dorsal plates was a nice change although I wish they hadn't ret-conned Godzilla 2014's spines during the flashback opening sequence of KOTM. I think they should have kept the original spines for that to maintain canonical accuracy and perhaps explain why the spines evolved between 2014 and 2019 (exposure to more radiation?). Perhaps we weren't meant to notice or ask such questions but my OCD would have appreciated it.
All that being said, G14's spines still looked great when lit up.
Lyes but at least they weren’t the monster that appears over and over, a giant snake! I just felt it had way less effort put into it.
i would probably make alot movies or more stuff like.
2014: Godzilla
2016: Monster Island (some toho monsters & no godzilla)
2017: Kong: Skull Island (the same)
2019: Godzilla: King of the monsters (the same but with Anguirus)
2021: Monarch series
2022: Godzilla vs Kong (the same, but with more epic battle scenes)
2024: Son of Kong (Kong finds female Kong & baby is born. then Kong & Gorosaurus attack in the hollow earth)
2025: Godzilla 3 Desolation (Godzilla & Anguirus vs Biollante & Gigan)
2027: Mothra (Mothra vs Battra)
2028: Rodan (Rodan vs Megaguirus)
2030: Terror of MechaGodzilla (Godzilla & kong fight against an Upgraded Mechagodzilla & a Mecha King Ghidorah)
2033: Destroy all Monsters part 1: (Godzilla, Mothra, Rodan, & Kong vs Upgraded Gigan, Hedorah, & Scylla)
2034: Destroy all Monsters part 2: (Godzilla, Baragon, Varan, Behemoth, & Kong vs Destroyah, SpaceGodzilla, & Megalon)
I already voted, plus isn’t this a comparison between the legendary gojis?
SarcasticGoji,
Well, but, the Skull Crawlers are just a big update of this guy from the original King Kong:
The 2nd to last picture (The Ghidorah one) is awesome. Ghidroah looks like one of the dragons from the movie Dragon Wars.
SarcasticGoji I forgot about Godzilla earth. I'll add the option for you :)
another thing. From what I’ve seen of singular point, it reminds me of my own story and it’s freaking me out.
7amey,
It should also be June 24th.
2019 fins is based on 1954 fins
Ok wait Imma put a timeline that starts before the main plot, it’s a continuation of the showa era.

2030 - A stray Kumacaras makes landfall Keramashoto National Park, Japan, and Japan declares it a Protected species.
I out enough time between it to do original things with it but still have a connection. I like the idea but might not go with it
I’ve seen a few of these.
I say Plant guy. Godzilla earth is the most powerful godzilla even before the anime. THE US DROPPED 150 NUKES ON HIM AND IT DIDNT EVEN DO A SCRATCH! Plus at 150 ft, (that was his height before the evacuation), he blew up gorath.
I wonder when does it hit China...
Pacific Rim: The Black was on Bilibili at the same time as everywhere else.
warbat felt very uncreative after the last two titans
It's cool, but it's too much like Pacific Rim. I prefer the final film's way of retaining that sense of mystery to MG.
this isn’t an option, but i love godzilla earth’s spines
Way ahead of you! But universe might not be the right word. More like a show...
I love Matt's sense of scale. He understands how to use references, like helicopters or fighter jets that create an epic piece.
Can't wait to watch it!
Honestly, as much as fans dislike the Tristar movie, I liked the origin story. The idea of a harmless lizard being mutated into a destructive, dangerous monster is actually pretty cool and it isn't that far removed from the classic Godzilla.
It might be the nostalgia I have for the movie, but I actually enjoy the 1998 film. I honestly think that it had some interesting ideas and I personally really like Zilla's design. The problem was that the ideas and design didn't really fit Godzilla and felt more like an unofficial remake to Beast From 20,00 Fathoms (seriously there are scenes in 98 that are almost identical to that movie).
I actually really like the iguana (Tristar) or the bigg plant (Anime)
i'm not gonna vote just yet though, because i can't decide
i also like both, but actually-
i might go with 14 cause it's...unique, i guess. i'm more used to it because i've known '14 longer anyway (obviously)
SasquaDash,
His origin has not been revealed in the show yet anyway.
