True, I mean, how much do we actually know about this series?

Thanks!

I used the scified taglines, and also drew some G'14 nostaliga to make it!

And ya figured it out, lol...

Nice fan made pieces.

;)

First comment

"I'm not saying this is a bad show, I'm just saying its a bad Godzilla series."

I think making a claim this big without having seen it is baseless and presumptuous.

Yup. Its a muto larva.

Is the creature a muto 

Unpopular opinion, but I don't think this should've been a godzilla series. Ignoring the size, the plot about the red mist and the human story really doesn't have that Godzilla feeling and I feel like Godzilla is just here for 1: name recognition and 2: to set up the red mist plot. 

I'm not saying this is a bad show, I'm just saying its a bad Godzilla series. 

But then again, I could be completely wrong and this could be the best Godzilla anime of our time.

I think I found an english trailer. I'm not sure if it's official official but it's something

I always found the MonsterVerse godzilla roar to sound more powerful well maybe the sole exception is the original 1954 roar

If you're wondering why there are weird capital letters everywhere......let's just say that I'll never try a different format again :(

SarcasticGoji,
Yes, which is partially the point I've been making.

Xenotaris,
Sorta. The first roar is a mixture of one of his 1954 roars and latter Showa roars--Which was an odd choice.

His roar at the end is also a 1954 roar. But that roar was pretty much used as the guttural basis for 1984 and modified further in Godzilla vs. Biollante and Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah, before they switched to a higher tempo roar in Godzilla vs. Mothra.

The nuances are splitting hairs, but this has always been my favorite Godzilla roar. The last time we heard it in film is when Godzilla was frozen in Shin Godzilla.

Your welcome, I need to go start my next ROTK chapter just needs some ideas, just post some ideas on my ROTK post :)

Wowwwwww........

I love hand drawn, better than digital art.... can someone teach me to paint, I’m really wanting to learn.

Oh, I got confused.... thanks tho

Anyone notice Hedorah?
Hes bright blue for some reason tho.

I like the the roar in the OG, specifically the one that plays in the title sequence.

Here’s a thought, do the definitions differ from language to language?

wait a minute Gman, this godzilla has the same roar as the heisei godzilla roar

wait SarcasticGoji, Dinosaurs and Birds are more closely related to iguanas then mammals because Dinosaurs, Birds, and Iguanas are members of reptilia which are sauropsid amniotes, while mammals are descendants of synapsid amniotes

I drew him with his new axe, I think that'll for sure help him win!

This is my piece! Check me out on IG @thought2paper

sonictiger,
I don't agree in the least. This trailer has far more energy to it.

And this roar is much stronger than the Monsterverse roar. It has a lot more bass to it. I always found the Monsterverse roar too soft and high in tempo.

SarcasticGoji,
That's an excellent question about Pacific Rim, but also pretty simple to explain. The monsters in Pacific Rim are simply called "kaiju" (or incorrectly "kaijus") in-universe. That is their designation in the fictional world of the film. It does not literally mean they are cinematic kaiju.

Things do get trick with stuff like Yongary, which include a large portion of filmmakers that were a part of Godzilla films. But I think it best to simplify it to Japanese cinema for the sake of confusion.

Some historians, like August Ragone, have insinuated the word be expanded to all Asian cinema, but I'd rather draw the line to Japan alone.

Xenotaris,
Okay, that's wonderful and all, but you're still crying over the misuse of the scientific definition of evolution. Once again, and for maybe the 5th or 6th time, both the Webster and Oxford dictionaries include a secondary definition that is not the scientific definition and is synonymous with "transformation," "metamorphosis," and "modification," none of which limit the definition to having or not having a "perfect state".

So the argument is pointless with that definition which is still perfectly applicable to Pokemon, Shin Godzilla, etc. This isn't me making up rules. It's literally right there in the definition.

This is why I'm perfectly okay with you finding the Samurai/Knight comparison poor--Because I find your argument against the use of the word "evolution" to be equally as insipid since there is (again) a secondary definition for the word that is applicable.

As for this nonsense that the Japanese use the word "kaiju" for Frankenstein and Smaug, that's untrue. Their subtitles use the word "monstura" which is a more literal definition of "monster" and they use the word "kaijin" for the Japanese Frankenstein.

But let's suppose they did use kaiju for these creatures. And? It's their language and their vernacular. There may not be a better word to describe it in their language.

But if we're going to culturally appropriate their word into our language, it needs to have meaning. And if we're just going to label any monster a "kaiju" because we feel like it, then it loses any meaning or reason for being used in the English vernacular. Why call everything a kaiju in English when we have our own word for "giant monsters". It makes no sense and is inaccurate.

But since I'm using the Oxford Dictionary anyway, I decided to look up the word "kaiju". Here's the definition:

n. 1. A giant monster of a type featured in Japanese fantasy and science fiction movies and television programs.

So there you go. "Japanese fantasy and science fiction movies and television programs." Not American. Not western. Not Chinese. Not Korean. Just Japanese.

Hmm, nah, they'll both beat each other once(godzilla during the ship fight and kong during the city fight), however, since kong wins round 2 he'll be declared winner and another kong movie will likely follow.

gojira

I think Ford's son should be the main human character in one movie.

Just saying.

While this is a wonderful idea, I also wanna see where Shin Godzilla's era ends up taking us.. considering how SP looks sorta like him, I think Toho has something huge planned for a new universe or something.

I was planning on making a comic someday, but I'm not even sure what it would be about, or who it would have. I was considering fanfiction, but I can draw better than I can write, so fanfiction is out of the question.

Godzilla looks awful in this form ngl.

thank god godzilla doesnt look funky in the trailer like in the poster 

Something about the monsterverse roar is so cool though...

I like the classic roar best from 54’

Gman.  The trailer for Godzilla Vs. Kong is way better.

And I wish Toho would use the G'14 roar

Btw, did you see the orgin of the banner in this topic?

My first godzilla experience was godzilla 98'. I actually am probably the only person that likes this film and loved the animated series. But when I saw legendary godzilla for the first time in  2014, I was a fan for live. #GodzillaWins2021

It’s actually a fact now that birds are a type of reptile, they are not separate 

EXACTLY

Dinosaurs are more closely related to birds and mammals than iguanas

Legendary's design is probably the best looking as it gets better with each movie.

I thought it was pretty neat design when it first came out on the heels of the dinosaur turning point that was Jurassic Park. It tried to update Godzilla's design to be inline with modern dinosaur depictions but sadly the story fucked itself by explaining he is a mutant iguana rather than a mutant dinosaur.

Just because they are both reptiles doesn't mean Iguanas and theropod dinosaurs are the same type of reptiles. Dinosaurs are archosaurs which have scrutes rather than overlapping scales like lepidosaurs such as snakes and lizards
