Future Gamera

Saw this just today. Wasn't quite sure where it should go. It's a design for a Gamera that's a terror.

I think that both it and the concept are interesting, and something I would like to see.

I would love to see what would be done with Gamera the Terror, the Marauding Bad Guy.

This design would fit like a glove.

The feet seem to be Irys-inspired. Which is okay with me, since this Gamera would be a bad guy. This design seems built for speed. So, I see him causing not only destruction, but chaos. Instead of being the 'punishment for the sins of mankind' (which has been done to death), I would rather see this version of Gamera acting without any rhyme or reason. Maybe a kaiju version of The Joker from the Dark Knight (one of my favorite movies). Maybe he could connected to Asagi, and then kill her. There are two distinct, but not totally unrelated advantages to this. One, it establishes the character's malevolence. Two, it ensures that Ayako Fujitani doesn't return for any future installments. (Just kidding; I like her and her character, Asagi. If I actually knew her, in real life, I'd buy her a box of See's Candy).

If the story this Gamera is the center of is part of the Heisei Gamera universe, it could indicate that Gamera when rogue after somehow (or because of) overcoming the Gyaos Swarm. A graphic visualization of that battle, depicted with all of the imagination that tokusatsu can muster, would be a great viseral point for the mayhem that this Gamera personifies.

So, that's my idea for the Gamera reboot. No more 'Earth Spirit,' 'Defender of the Earth,' 'If you knew me, you'd love me.'

Rather, a vicious monster, with speed and lethality, unloosed.

I like your idea and the design looks cool. But Space Gamera is more likely to be a new foe for Gamera - his evil counterpart. If Daiei were to do a direct sequel to Revenge of Irys where an injured Gamera faces a swarm of Gyaos, I could see a scenario where Space Gamera mysteriously shows up and appears to be an ally of Gamera, impressively doing away with the swarm but then turning on Gamera and seemingly destroying him. Somehow Gamera survives, recovers, and comes back to face his nearly invinsible enemy.

I like your idea too.

It provides a reason for Evil Gamera to do what he does, and sets him up as the ultimate adversary, one who Gamera may not be able to defeat. This, as we all know, is an essential part of the Gamera Mythos: coming back to defeat an enemy that nearly destroyed him.

I also like the idea of 'Space Gamera' being nearly invisible. I thought it might be intriguing if he had chamelion-like powers, making him undetectable until he's too close...and then it's too late. Space Gamera defeating the Gyaos Swarm would be a plausible way for Gamera to survive. Then, for his apparent ally to turn on him, would not only be a great plot point, but it would be shocking turn of events, setting up a classic 'Good vs. Evil' confrontation that could take up the whole third act of the film. 

I would like to see the 'Good Gamera' look a lot like he did in Gamera 3:Revenge of Irys. This would be for the sake of continuity

Daei: are you listening?

Incomplete post.

The rest: and so that he look somewhat like his powerful, evil-driven enemy.

In addition to all of the above, the design is so cool.

Now, all that we need are directors and writers.

And a schedule (obviously after Godzilla 2016).
