Thank you, MinecraftDinoKaiju! Those are nice suggestions. They're in the works.
Tagging largely comes down to copying and pasting screen names and linking stuff from existing sites. I just did it for distinction.
My list is fairly similar to yours Gman. (Side note, how do we tag things the site, I still haven't figured it out)
1950's: Godzilla (1954)
1960's: Monster Zero, I wonder if this makes a clear distinction to the Japanese version, Invasion of Astro-Monster. Nick Adams helps make this movie legendary.
1970's: Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla (I still haven't seen the Japanese version of Terror of MechaGodzilla since its expensive as holy hell, so this is subject to change.)
1980's: I'll just say The Return of Godzilla to be definitive, but it's definitely a toss up with Biollante.
1990's: Godzilla 2000
2000's: GMK
2010's: Shin Godzilla, though King of the Monsters has me very hopeful. If it brings me back to that special place in my childhood it will take this spot, the movie doesn't even have to be that good or deep. I say this only because I want a modern "easy watch" Godzilla movie. I have to be in certain states of mind to watch 2014, Shin, or the anime movies.
^You've got homework to do.
I haven't seen any of the movies from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, or 1980s, but I did see the ones from the 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s (When they were still on Hulu. Remember that?). So here's mine by each decade:
1990s: Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (Because the Back to the Future trilogy helped me understand the time travel plot of this film.)
2000s: For this, it's between Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack (Because I have both versions of the Neca figure for this Godzilla. I got them from Toys R Us as Christmas gifts.) or Godzilla: Final Wars
2010s: For this, it's either Godzilla (2014) [Because I have the 6-inch version of the Neca figure for this Godzilla. I also got this from Toys R Us as a Christmas gift.] or Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)
And that's about it for me. Sorry if it is short.
I never saw the Godzilla animated series... other than Godzilla Power Hour
Actually in the original draft of Godzilla he was supposed to eat the M.U.T.O.'s but they scrapped it yet we got to see kong eat the mire squid in Kong skull island my guess is that it was because the M.U.T.O.'s had enough character that it wouldn't have been pleasant to have the be eaten on screen but who knows maybe when Godzilla went back into the water he might have taken the female M.U.T.O.'s body to with him to eat later.
The Legend of Brian,
It's all fan conjecture, so I'm not worrying about Cloudorah.
I'm more concerned about these amulets that the Exif keep communicating/predicting the future with. What if King Ghidorah isn't a physical entity at all and some sort metaphysical horror they've been in touch with the whole time. The only way they perceive it in their minds is a three headed terror.
Like MechaGodzilla City, it would be an interesting concept, but unfortunate after all the promotion Toho is doing for the monster we're used to seeing. The backlash would be relentless.
I'm still dreaming of hearing a rendition of "Get Rodan!" from the original film playing during Rodan's confrontation with the fighter jets we see in the trailer.
Ok, yeah. It was bad.
I thought the sequel was far better than Planet of the Monsters, but I do agree. I loved the world building, but when that doesn't contribute to how the story plays out, it does end up feeling like pointless fluff. The nanometal concept was actually one of the few things I wanted to see a film tackle with MechaGodzilla, but the execution was boring since all it amounted to was an expanded version of the original plan. Here's to hoping Ghidorah gets a proper appearance.
Thought's on the possibility of space cloud Ghidorah Gman?
Considering how aggressively mediocre they've been it's not surprising. I actually enjoyed the sequel more and felt it juggled a lot of interesting topics that are too cerebral for the Monsterverse. But the execution of these ideas, and the over-reliance on world building, really leaves a lot to be desired.
I wonder... Will he use Rodan's 1956 theme or the 1964-1993 theme converted from Varan. I like the latter more, but it might be kinda cool to hear Rodan's original theme again.
Well, let's just hope Legendary doesn't disappoint.
This sounds great. Just hope that it delivers and that it doesn't disappoint.
Yeah, same. But at least a good(ish) series came out of that film, right?
Nice vids. Here's my suggestion(s) for the next vid: Gammera, Anguirus, King Ghidorah. Just to name a few.
This was kind of cool.
^ I agree.
How do we know that the title King of the Monsters is not referencing Ghidorah as the King... I mean after all... he is know as King Ghidorah in movies past.
Godzilla is a God for all intents and purposes as referenced by Sally Hawkings character. So this title "King" may be referring to Ghidorah. Mind you... that's just speculative thinking on my part.
And I am still not convinced that TOHO isn't planning a monsterverse with Legendary after KK vs G. This rendering of Godzilla could be the one that TOHO has waited for. I think that money talks and because of the plot surrounding Rodan and Mothra and Ghidorah… TOHO will want a continuation of the franchise with a collaboration between them and Hollywood. I think success for this next film will dictate future films... much like what TOHO wanted with the 98 Godzilla... but did not get. Hence Godzilla 2000... which was a direct response to the failure of the 98 oddzilla.
One of the best things about a Godzilla movie is the soundtrack. I'm confident we'll get a great one with Bear McCreary. I can't wait to hear the classics and the new stuff.
Man this trilogy has really lost all it's gas in the fan base with King of the Monsters coming out soon
I really can't wait to see how the Ifukube themes get incorporated. McCreary killed it on the new God of war game and if we get half of the score that game had, I'd be a happy character.
Gave the dialogue some thought, and basically we are causing problems to the world/environment, etc. Global warming is happening. Ghidorah is frozen in ice. We are responsible for freeing him, thus causing our own demise. It's down to the Titans to set things right. That would actually make perfect sense to me.
New chapter. Sets up an important part of the story.
Pretty sure the ones in Japan and the American Southwest are the MUTOs from 2014. I like to think the one in Scotland is Nessie. The one in the South Pacific is most likely Skull Island. The one in the Atlantic looks like it's somewhere near Bermuda (possible reference to the Bermuda Triangle?), but I'm not sure what could be there.
Yay! A Fellow Legendary/Monsterverse fan. I also liked the Tri-star godzilla design, just wished the movie was a lot better.
Haha! Thanks, Mattzilla115. I'm not entirely up to par on being that good yet. Skyrim death noises is an art form in itself. ;)
The roar sounds too goofy for Legendary Godzilla. Other than that, the trailer looks good.
My favorite design has to be between Tristar's 1998 design (just because he looks like a huge dinosaur [#Zilla]), Toho's 2001 design (because he looks the most natural out of all Millennium era Godzillas [#GMKGodzilla]) Legendary's 2014 design, or Legendary's 2019 design.
Yeah Son of Godzilla looked so bad...
RR44 Ok, first of all, calm down. We all feel the same way, but still. No need to go on a trip for vengeance. And second, I agree with your plan (the third sentence), but I feel like it will just be a Kaiju version of Batman V. Superman if it happened to go that way. So what I think we should all do is just anticipate it and not jump to conclusions (contrary to this website's purpose [I wasn't sure about what to say here, so if anyone knows what I meant, please reply.])
Can we all agree on that? Please?
OK... I'm a huge fan of Godzilla... but Kong clearly has an edge on him in the dexterity department. Godzilla is powerful and all... but Kong I think has more intelligence.
One thing I don't want to see on the heals of KING OF THE MONSTERS... is a big monkey beating and killing that KING. I would so never forgive Legendary for that... and I'm sure most Godzilla fans would agree.
There needs to be a third Kaiju in the KK vs G film... one that forces them to team up to defeat and then they go their separate ways.
Sounds amazing. Hope the GvK director does Kong well.
I'm still team Godzilla, though. Lol.
