Rodan: A Possible Future Double Threat?
Something Real
MemberGodzillaJuly 02, 20152278 Views5 RepliesHello there.
In recent days, I have been giving quite a bit of thought to many of the other monsters with which Godzilla has shared the silver screen, most notably Rodan. With the kickoff of a new Godzilla movie from Toho looming upon the horizon, it stands to reason that we might see a fresh beginning for many of our most beloved kaiju. However, I can not help but wonder if Rodan might become something more in the future - a more numerous presence. As with his first appearance, Rodan could easily gain the partnership of another of his kind, becoming a double threat once again. Personally, I find the idea of a pair of these massive, winged beasts to be most compelling! Such a team would likely be amazingly potent in battle and would be incredibly neat to behold as either an ally or nemsis to other kaiju. Of course, I would not enjoy the notion of Rodan becoming something like the Gyaos from the Gamera series - a near-endless horde fit only to be wiped out by the hundreds. That would rob the character of his unique status within the mythology. However, a fellow winged giant of the same species joining the fray could be most interesting if well-presented. As always, your thoughts and conjecture concerning this topic are most appreciated, even if you choose to keep them to yourself. :)
