I definitely think that your idea seems possible, and i do like it, i have to disagree with the Mecha Godzilla as the end game/last movie enemy. I would have to assume that Ghidorah would be the last enemy Godzilla faces, assuming that Legendary wants to use Toho monsters. He's basically Godzilla's arch enemy, and almost always takes more than just Godzilla to take him down. I mean, Mecha Godzilla is almost, if not more iconic than Ghidorah, but I just feel like Ghidorah is more of a final villain. But that's just my opinion.

Did you even read the post? Or did you just read the title and skip right to the comment section I'm not saying you're wrong. Not at all. It just seems like that's the only thing people on this site post whenever Monster Island is brought up. Almost word for word. This post was basically me asking if you think my idea would work. Not if the preconceptions of a monster island movie could work. You seem to be answering the latter, and without any mention of the content within my post, it's easy to assume you just skipped to the comment section after reading the words "monster island". I'm not saying you did, I'm just saying that's what it looks like. (gah, it's so hard for me to not come across as an asshole, I'm sorry if it seems like I'm trying to be a jerk)

The 98 Godzilla of course. I mean by monster movie standards to leagues ahead of most, and even as a godzilla movie it wasn't bad. The only problems were how weak they made godzilla, and not giving him his nuclear breath. I mean the babies were kind of bad, but it was just a fun scene, and I enjoyed that part of the movie more than I ever enjoyed any scene with Minilla in it from the original showa scene. Who knows, if toho wouldn't have gotten greedy and let tristar come up with their own monster instead of telling them no they had to buy rights to another toho monster the movie could've been even better.

Hmm, while I'm okay with a monster island idea, and think it could work I can't see it working with the same dark gritty realistic approach they're going for with the upcoming movie. However if they're willing to change the tone(or hopefully realise this shouldn't even be tried to portrayed as realistic) the it could work, and probably be pretty good. A monster island idea could go a lot of directions, it could be as simple as them filling an island with pheromones that attract all the monsters to it and have a huge brawl, without going in too much of a b movie direction.

well im going to guess that Godzilla is going to be about maybe 400 or 500 feet tall or maybe 300 :/

When i read this question two things came to mind: 1 The Godzilla soundtrack for King of the monsters the first movie hospital scene watching all the chaos after effect and the underwater death of Godzilla scene. 2 Godzilla vs Monster Zero the infamous Dance and the new Godzilla 1990's Godzilla movies except GODZILLA 1997

I would love to see Anguirus come back. He was always one of my favorite monsters. As far as enemies go, I would like to see Destroyah, Gigan, or Ghidorah

Maybe S.H.Monsterarts could make a super detailed figure

They didn't say how big the winged muto was gonna be. They did say that the 8 legged muto was gonna be 3.5" tall. But still, your estimates came around to what mine were when I was calculating Godzilla's size according to people who went to Comic Con.

I really don't see Mechagodzilla being a second movie sort of thing, or any mech for that matter, original or Toho. If anything, third or fourth movie, and that's only if Legendary decides to use any Toho creations. Simply because I see Mechagodzilla as the endgame. In each of the machine's appearances, it has come pretty damn close to killing Godzilla, and once it succeeded, if you consider the ending of Tokyo: SOS as Godzilla dying. There are only three instances, that I remember, where Godzilla actually dies. Gojira, Godzilla v. Destoroyah, and Tokyo: SOS. (four if you count the TriStar movie). In Gojira, Godzilla is killed by the oxygen destroyer, a manmade weapon that would never really happen in the real world. Godzilla v. Destoroyah, he dies via meltdown. Tokyo: SOS has Godzilla's ultimate fate up for debate, although it is more than implied that Godzilla died as a result of Kiryu (MG3), making Mechagodzilla the only "monster" that succeeded in killing Godzilla (again, if you consider the ending of that movie as Godzilla dying). Most people don't count Godzilla dying at the end of King Kong v. Godzilla as a real death, although he is defeated. So that's why I believe that IF they bring Mecha G into the Legendary movies, then it would be more of an endgame for a third or fourth movie. However, I will still see if I can find a good enough reason for them to put MechaGodzilla in the movies, because MechaG is my favorite Godzilla enemy and I would absolutely LOVE to see Legendary's take on Godzilla's metal doppelganger.

Name: Yamagawa Powers: liquid toxin spray, and armor build(ingests stone), health regeneration (stone consumption), move that kills it because of the blast which is fueled by solar pier is the kazan bakuhatsu or "volcano blast" that comes from its mountain. Description: a snapping turtle like head with elephant like tusks on the mouth sides. Ridges line the eyes and go up the broad heads center up to the shell edge. The hexagonal shell top is co reed in stone in a mountain shape. This allows it to hide or hibernate peacefully. It's tail is a big, broad club with feet that act as stony clubs too. It is quadropedal. Babies are able to walk on two legs. They lay an egg before death. The kaiju only cares about forest and mountain safety. It will harm those who harm those.

Well. if your figures are fairly accurate, and Godzilla will be around 500 feet tall, then all I can say is, AWESOME! Would it not be incredible to see him at that height?? It would be mind numbing.

I know I'm probably incredibly wrong on this, but I get this feeling that these 2 new monsters turn up just before or right at the emergence of Godzilla (the king), battle it out very early in the movie. In which the movie then somewhat follows the original movie of Godzilla destroying cities, and capturing the dark atmosphere of the original. Either way, I cannot wait

I agree with the whole offspring off the muto or whatever monster your referring to but they should also be working on the Mecha G side project while this is going on & after the monster breaks loose from its controls they send mechagodzilla in to finish the monster & try to get godzilla.

Your a genius. I hope you know that.

It could be done. But the real question is "should it be done". I think a serious "cartoon" could work to fill in the gaps between movies, if there will be another movie, introduce some characters, and kill some off. I've seen some pretty serious "cartoons" that have little to no comic relief, and turned out to be amazing. If, for whatever reason, they do make a cartoon series, I hope it's very serious, and relatively short. Also, the artwork would have to be pretty damn good so it could be taken more seriously. I wonder what station it would be broadcast on, maybe Syfy. I dunno, in my opinion, it'd have to be a mini series that bridges the gaps between movies, provided that there will be sequels, and be pretty serious in overall tone, with little to no comic relief. Something that still presents Godzilla as a threat and not an ally would, in my mind, be the only way to do it.

There is a novelization. lol I think a 6ft tall detailed statue would be cool.

I had similar thoughts about the movie that would make the traditional version of a Godzilla cartoon hard, but then I got a new idea. 1: Godzilla is the main character (being a cartoon, we can hear his/her thoughts and her 'language' is kaiju to humans of the show but [insert your native language here] to the audience). 2: To have a human element, say this human teenager is the only one who can hear and talk to Godzilla (and the other kaiju). He not only provide the life lessons to children (some times it will be Godzilla who does this) but also tries to be a diplomat for us. If Godzilla believes we are harming nature in our attempts to control it (thus earning Godzilla's wrath), then he could teach how to better live in the world (progress without to much harm to the planet). 3: Naturally we'd have monster fights, but also have human enemies. You know the profile, power hunger, brilliant mind, and the forces to pull off his schemes. He wants to control Godzilla, and his/her human friend to gain the ability to talk to Kaiju (the only other human at start of the series who knows of his ability).

Zat was great! You guys really put a lot of effort to it

Hmmn.....that's a tough one. On the one hand,it could allow an even wider audience to be reached in a format that's understandable, perhaps like the animated Godzilla universe version of Breaking Bad. On the other,securing such a tone in animated form is quite difficult, and only a few series have done it successfully. We'll really just have to wait and see. But,seeing as how Godzilla is making a comeback in international theatres and is actually possible in the real world with the knowledge we've compiled,I'll reserve judgment for the time being.

@GMAN2887 agreed

@DURP004 Nothing's impossible. I mean if this Godzilla film is everything Gareth says it will be, we'll be looking at a professional, well-told Godzilla film which I guarantee no one would've said after Final Wars years ago. If effort is put into, this could work somehow. Think of it this way, if Legendary came to YOU to write an animated series for this Godzilla film, would you not do so much research and try so hard to tell an age appropriate story for all ages about Godzilla that you'd go insane? I know I would. Yes, it's hard. Yes, it's practically impossible. But impossibility can go jump of a cliff for all I care. If you pretend you're in a world where impossibility doesn't exist, you will be in that very world. Shoot for the stars, and you might hit one; shoot for nothing, you'll always hit it. Effort, love, and dedication would make the perfect dark, Godzilla series.

I don't see that, sure there are the rare gems that manage to get both crowds, but for the most part the 2 go for different things; very different things and while some shows are able to encompass them together I don't see a Godzilla show being 1 of them. Having a movie that is mature is 1 thing as adults will take their children to see it once, enjoy it themselves and be done for the most part, but a show requires repeated viewing, and I doubt you'd see any adults or even people in their later teens tuning in for a show if not because their children or younger siblings ask them to. Just like you wouldn't, for the most part, see an adult sit down to watch a disney movie alone if it didn't have a form of nostalgia related to it. If they do a show It'd have to have a different tone than the movie or chances are they'd lose both crowds from spending too much time trying to please both instead of going for 1 and being happy with it. Doing a mature show that would still have the same tone would have to try to grab the adult crowd and that's just something that can't be done as action/adventure cartoons go.

@DURP004 Now I don't believe that. Is it more mature then your average monster show? Yes. But Land Before Time was a pretty damn mature movie about Dinosaurs for kids. If you make a cartoon with the hopes of impressing kids and adults at the same time you'll do just that. Now that idea was from the top of my head but I do believe if professional writers did a story like this, it would be a masterpiece kids everywhere can enjoy, especially in the nowadays generation

INSTINCTIVEGIGAN not that it wasn't read, it just reflects a more mature toned cartoon and sadly, as I said, if the cartoons go for any type of adult or mature audience they have to be comedies or the don't do well, at least not in the US.

sadly I don't think they will this films sombre tone and dark out look wont translate to a cartoon may be an ova about a reporter who's gathering story's from survivors of the attack than might be interesting but is still un likely

I love how no one read my comment, but then again it does sound a lot like a shitty fanfic in a lot of parts; and boy do I hate fanfics. A perfect representation of an animated Godzilla is to embrace the dark tones. It's shameful how everyone thinks that an animated project can't be mature and enjoyable at the same time for all ages. And to think I put a lot of effort into my version. TL: DR is the word. XD

hmmm thing id like to see allies (if thay did) Anguirus yes Rodan yes Mothra no manda may be enemies Ghidorah yes gigan yes destroyer yes biollante may be that's all I can think of for know but if these monsters wear dun right then it would be cool

You can't really do a cartoon Godzilla series without following those 2's basic story. I mean you could go outside that but then it'd be a cartoon more aimed towards adults and sadly if those aren't comedies they don't do well. That and this is supposed to be realistic and dark so cartoon follow up wouldn't be able to be done without wildly changing the tones. But if the cartoon for Godzilla 98 worked, and in my opinion was a pretty good watch, then I guess it could happen

No. How do you make a cartoon series about a destructive creature that killed millions of people in the biggest disaster to ever occur? The answer is sadly; You dont. It will probably end up being as crappy as the 98 series. I can forgive the hanna-barbera series, because well its hanna-barbera. How would Legendary be able to make this into a cartoon without it being sillyed down.

Well, im not much of an merchandize person, but there are couple of things i want; Those cyllinder posters they have at cinemas, i want one of those. I got one of "The Wolverine" a few days ago, so i know ill get one for g14. If theyre at a reasonable price, id buy a collector statue thingy. The novelisation and the new behind the scenes book "Godzilla: The art of destruction" is also a must.

I know they won't do allies since this is supposed to be realistic dark and gritty, but if they did it'd have to be Rodan. As for enemies don't really care, just preferably if they were to bring some back use the lesser seen 1s rather than the basic MechaG, Ghidorah or Mothra. Maybe Titanosaurus if I had to choose 1.

- Godzilla 2014 comics, art by Matt Frank of course. - Godzilla 2014 statues/collectibles with a 12 inch Godzilla with glowing spike action. - Godzilla 2014 trophy head to hang in your room - Shitload of Godzilla clothing/accessories (preferably from Hot Topic) - Godzilla posters - A new Godzilla game that is an extremely updated version of Save the Earth with new exciting mechanics, graphics, and even more monsters and locations including the new 2014 Legendary Godzilla as a playable character.

My story for an animated Godzilla series: Cities across the globe are demolished. The setting is pure apocalypse. At this point monsters like Ghidorah, Gigan, Orga, etc. have already attacked and battled on Earth. Our main plot centers around 3 stories. Our first story is about a group of survivors attempting to travel from the far side of the world (mainly Asia) attempting to reach the center of the USA, where it is rumored no monsters are present and civilization is rich. We see the group try their best to avoid monsters and survive the other dangers of this world. Like the militias that have committed war on each other and the military on their beliefs on how to end this war/ they try to recruit survivors to believe in what they believe in “or else”. There are militias who believe Godzilla is the way to win the war being an Earth monster, other militia see Anguirus as their savior, there's another militia who believes in the ancient “god” King Caesar to be the victor and saving grace, etc. The 2nd story we follow is a group of military soldiers as they battle the militias and monsters. Coming up with new methods to try and destroy the kaiju (Earth kaiju included): like Mechagodzilla, Mogeura, Jet Jaguar etc. But there is a sort of hopelessness among the military as some wonder what the point is in continuing to fight and that they should spend the remainder of their life with their families. The final story we follow is Godzilla. A monster who doesn’t want a war and just wants to live peacefully on Earth without any enemies to bother him. We explore Godzilla’s adventure as he finds moments where he feels sorrow for the human beings and their suffering, but also anger and frustration since humans are the cause for all of this. Their meddling with nuclear weapons, their mission for discovery, and their need to contact extraterrestrial life is the cause of everything. We see Godzilla on his journey to destroy all monsters and better understand the human race: whether he ends up understanding them or hating them. The whole series switches between the 3 stories and often goes into flashback mode before the apocalypse to show events that helped create this unholy future.

Note: anything in " " means a re-creation Legendary Pictures counterpart to an original Toho monster. Enemies: Kaiju-fied Octopus; Giga Crab; predatory deep sea worm; "Cyber-Zilla" (New origin, mad scientist made cyber monster).

@Gojira2014 While I don't really agree with your "King of the Monsters" assessment in another thread, I agree 110% here. I don't want an over-explained origin. I want it vague, like the original film. The mystery and lack of explaination is what keeps Godzilla so terrifying.

@thegman123 love the dark knight reference lol

xD No, I knew it was North America, I was trying to figure out why the color black was used. Not so much what the shape was. lmfao

Very neat, and it does manage to maintain the tone and feeling of the trailer, which id say would be hard using minecraft. My only complaint is the multi-armed creature, i feel like it just look like a bunch of sand. Using the Godzilla mod was a good idea for the big guy himself.
