Should Bagan be in a Godzilla sequel? Or in the last Legendary Godzilla film?

In a away and out of all the Godzilla enemies Bagan has been the one who has been left in the shadow and never got to face Godzilla in any movie. But to a surprise, the giant powerful beast did Go up against the king of the Monsters in Super Godzilla on the 1991 Super NES system. I have heard some things about how powerful Bagon is in the video game, and im impressed. The Video game creator's went as far as to transform the king into an all mighty super beast in able for it to fight Bagan. Now In my opinion Legendary will eventually stop with Godzilla but thats not for a long time i can imagine. So why not make the final Godzilla film feature Godzilla's most brutal and most powerful enemy of all time? I don't see why not! And this last film could even give us some background info on where Bagan came from and what it is exacly. Why not take Godzilla to the next level? To make Godzilla into a monster of wrath. I'd say it should be a go. Lets get a movie like this made!! We need to see bagan in a movie because why? We have never seen this monster fight Godzilla on the big screen before. It would be a great change instead of constanly using the same monsters. So lets bring Bagan to life.

@KENG2K Lol I don't care about his origin story because I don't like him-like at all. Disliking one monster among an entire library of Godzilla monsters makes someone a shameful Godzilla fan? Are you kidding me? The one who goes and labels people as non-fans like you are the ones that should be ashamed. Gabara is the most shitty Godzilla monster ever, but cuz I choose not to research everything about him I don't deserve the title Godzilla fan? Beautiful logic. That's like calling someone a bad Star Wars fan for not knowing every pointless character in the background scenes, it's stupid.

See? There it is again. Someone else calling Bagan, "Godzilla's greatest enemy." Why? Because he was the final boss in a video game? Because he's big, ugly and has lots of lasers? He's never been in a Godzilla movie so how is he possibly Godzilla's greatest enemy?

Godzilla's taken on King Ghidorah, Mothra and Mecha-Godzilla so often that perhaps one of them is his "greatest enemy", but Bagan? That makes no sense. He's one of Godzilla's most forgettable enemies.

And I'm not sure who you're pointing out that claimed Bagan had no origin. Yes he has an origin and yes I knew of it. Making claims about people that aren't true is quite unwise even on forums. Regardless, while the concept is kind of cool it lacks any originality. The Godzilla series has already dealt with combining Godzilla cells with other lifeforms in Godzilla vs. Biollante. It was nailed pretty thoroughly in the movie, so what? We're going to do it again now? Furthermore, the entire idea just wouldn't work in the more grounded universe that Gareth Edwards is going for. It just sounds too far out there for the Legendary Godzilla movies-- hence why his origin would have be altered.

For a while I thought that Bagan would be perfect for the movie because he blends the past of Godzilla while not getting bogged down in rules, history, and other things that were decided long before the director was born.  You could basically do anything with Bagan because.. he's never been used.  He's just a name.  The only thing that has remained consistent through his iterations (in scripts and games) is his size and having a horn.

 

I made the image below to try and illustrate how large this new Godzilla could be.  Dwarfing Bagan (or Biollante, KG, or Destoroyah) would really put this Godzilla in a league of his own.

You know that Bagan was first created for the Return of Godzilla/Godzilla 1985 script? He didn't look anything like the fan art that's been posted here. In The Return of Godzilla he was a actually three monsters that combined into one. He looked goofy as hell, but he was at least more interesting than the one in Super Godzilla:

Yup, that's the original Bagan. He was scrapped for The Return of Godzilla, a solo Mothra movie that was going be called Mothra vs. Bagan and finally Godzilla vs. Destroyah. Three chances. All failed.

Just to clear up any misunderstanding, I did not draw this picture. This is Toho's concept art for the original design for Bagan in the 1980s. (Although I do beleive a fan site colored it.) Can't say I love it either, but it's still more interesting than the later design.

Eh, I guess I'd rather see Bagan make an appearance than Ghidorah, Mothra, MechaG, or either Kumonga or Kamacuras.

 

But besides those 5 he's pretty low on my list of monsters I'd like to see incorperated into a Legendary movie

I'm very surprised on the original concept of Bagan honestly, yea it looks very weir and strange, but i still think either concept can be used. Bagan needs a chance and deserves a chance in a Godzilla film. Regardless of how many people don't like the monster. And if it is in a movie, hell that means more people will go watch to see Bagans butt get kicked! But i highly doubt that will just happen. People neve give anything new or unused a chance anymore. It's rediculous..and sad
