Gorosaurus is one of the many Kong enemies based on dinosaurs, but it seems to be that he is the favorite in that category. If there was going to be a kong 2, then I can definitely see Gorosaurus be introduced into the monsterverse. This was my first requested monster in the "how to include in the monsterverse" and was requested by minecraftdinokaiju. He also helped me out with giving me a quote from tohokingdom.com "Unlike its smaller brethren, this creature dragged its tail across the ground in order to remain balanced due to its utterly gigantic size". Thanks for the submission. It really gave me an idea that I thought would be quite unique.

 

I do want to point out that this is all speculation. I am not saying everything in here HAS to happen. This is just the way I would do it.

 

Now here is my idea of how to include Gorosaurus into the monsterverse.

 

Gorosaurus would be a dinosaur related to the Allosaurus from the prehistoric era. Gorosaurus would be the name of his species and not just for 1 dinosaur-like in KKE. The way that this species works is that they have a lifespan of about 400 years. When they are about 25 to 50 years old they are about 30 meters tall and lean forward like an allosaurus. When they are 100 to 200 years old they are about 50 to 75 meters tall and stand a bit more upright. When they become a full adult at the age of 250 to 400 they can become up to 90 to 120 meters tall. The Gorosaurus species was a major enemy of the Kong species especially as they were living in the same region.

But then the meteor strikes and wipes out almost all of the dinosaurs on earth, but the Gorosaurusses survived the extinction event by going underground into the hollow earth. Whilst going through these tunnels they encountered many other monsters that attacked them. Most of the Gorosaurusses died because of these monsters and the Gorosaurus rase became an endangered species. Some of the caves came to fill with lava and magma forced them to come out of the tunnels. Only a dozen of the Gorosaurusses came out of the tunnels alive. They found themselves on an island by the name of mondo island.

 

On the island, many many generations go by of the species growing in numbers ones again, but then the food ran out. every single living being on the island was eaten by the Gorosaurusses (which makes sense seeing as this takes place about a million years later) and the Gorosaurusses had to evolve and civilized. The leader of the group got to eat the other Gorosaurusses to survive and when the Gorosaurus leader died of old age, there would be a new Gorosaurus to become the leader of the group. The Gorosaurusses couldn't reproduce enough to stay alive by cannibalizing, so they made a plan to take over the earth ones again and go back into the tunnels and appear all over the world looking for new sources of food (aka humans). The younger Gorosaurusses appear from the ground up (like in "destroy all monsters") all over the world in cities around the world (of course Paris is part of these cities). even in new york a Gorosaurus appears and everyone thinks it is Godzilla for some reason? ;)

In the meanwhile, the leader of the Gorosaurusses stayed on mondo island (with a few younger Gorosaurusses in case of...) waiting for the younger Gorosaurusses to bring him food or let him know if it is safe for him to come. Unfortunately, the Gorosaurusses can't handle the human gun and missile fire. humankind has changed and evolved more than the Gorosaurusses expected. the younger Gorosaurusses get killed all over the world (the one in new york gets killed by the missiles on the Brooklyn bridge). Whilst all of this is going on, Kong swam to mondo island to confront the leader of the Gorosaurusses (which at this point would be the last of its kind). Kong would hit the leader from behind and the younger Gorosaurusses would jump in and attack kong. After Kong kills the younger Gorosaurusses the leader jumps back in action for a final battle with 2 creatures that are at that point the last of its species. After a long even fight Kong eventually kills the leader, making the Gorosaurus species extinct.

 

I did a powers section in the king caesar forum, so I will make one for Gorosaurus as well. Of course, they would be able to do a kangaroo kick. It might not seem very logical for them to be able to do this, but it is Gorosaurusses most famous attack. I was going to give him the ability to dig like in "destroy all monsters", but how can he dig with those arms. instead, he rams things with his head (which is why he has such a flat head). Gorosaurusses were said to be very intelligent creatures and that is something I want to keep.

 

This is the end of the forum. again thanks for the request and the helpful quote from minecraftdinokaiju. I hope you like the end result. I didn't really focus on kong in this story, but this wasn't meant to be a sketch for a full story for kong 2, but more of a kong 2 from the point of the Gorosaurusses. This story might feel a bit complicated for just a dinosaur species, but I wanted to not make the Gorosaurus feel like the Skullcrawlers from KSI and still, there are a lot of similarities between the 2, but this was the best I could do.

If there are things that you would have done differently or just disagree with something, please let me know in the comments and we can discuss our opinions and if there are any other monsters that you would like to see, please let a comment telling me who/what you would like to see.

To be fair, sony and Marvel have been rivals as well. Sony has been trying to be better than the MCU with their amazing spiderman spider verse that never got off the ground. They eventually gave the rights to Spiderman for a few movies back to marvel, but they still own him.

I feel that daeii is in a similar position right now. They can better just do the wise thing and join the monsterverse at some point. But then again the forum doesn’t necessary need to make sense when we are talking about the rights of the character. It's more about if the monster can make sense in some way in a grounded universe.

@KaijuWorld But didn't Daeii file for bankruptcy? Also, can we get back on topic to what the forum was about?

Here's a hint:

Btw, the latter image portrays most accurately what I think Gorosaurus should look like. I found it by coincidence, but you're welcome for it anyway.

Good point. Did you like the idea of a younger Gorosaurus being the monsterverses version of Zilla? I think it will be the closest this universe could get to Zilla personally.

I would love to see Gamera in the Monsterverse (even though we all know that isn't goin to happen here and now). But the way I see these topics are more about fans having an opinion and really just having fun with the idea. Not to keep all the facts in line. Even though Toho does weigh heavy with the rights to use there characters is in question on these topics, I still wouldn't hold any monster out for the sake of the fans opinions and conversations. Its still a fun concept, and keeps fans talking to one and other until we get more news on the next film.

Gamera wouldn't work in the MonsterVerse, the concept of a giant turtle shooting rockets out of its shell to fly sounds comedic.


Godzilla Generations was a beautiful game! I loved the fact that there's a laser cannon inside of Dr. Serizawa's eyepatch.

^It could work if they wanted it to. Really any of these monsters could work if they really wanted to use them. If a studio or studios agree/want a licensed monster in a movie, the writers will put them in. Simple as that.

As for Gorosaurus, I find it very unlikely anyone would pay for the license of a fairly unpopular and not very well known kaiju that merely looks like another theropod dinosaur. If Legendary really wanted a more basic looking theropod design they could save money by making up their own. Gamera on the other hand would be more likely because of his very specific outlandishness and subtle legacy.

Which reminds me. This quote just made me think of an idea for the next forum (read below to continue):

@KaijuWorld I know that this isn't likely to happen, but just for speculation/fun, can you make a forum discussing "HOW TO INCLUDE GODZILLA JR. INTO THE MONSTERVERSE" (That's just how the title is spelled. Sorry if it seems like shouting.), and by the way, this is the one from the Heisei Era, not Minilla (Although you can do a forum on him if you want.)? Please?

@KaijuWorld Btw, I liked the way you made a younger Gorosaurus a monsterverse version of Zilla. Lol.

"Gamera wouldn't work in the MonsterVerse, the concept of a giant turtle shooting rockets out of its shell to fly sounds comedic."

But the idea of a 3 headed, no armed, 2 tailed golden monster that shoots gravity beams out of its mouth seems perfectly sane to ya?

@riggzamortis86 What about a colorful moth that is so big it makes the insects of the Carboniferous (when oxygen was at its hightest level) look tiny, or a giant Pteranodon with spikes on its underbelly? Am I right? And let's not forget that there is a giant dinosaur-like reptile that shoots out a laser (I know it's called atomic breath, but this is for anyone new who comes across this comment.) from its mouth. Am I right? Also, can we please get back to the topic of the forum?

Here's another hint:

Does that sound familiar?

^I agree with ya. Just commenting on things that I thought were funny.

By all means, keep on trucking.

I think Gorosaurus wouldn't make in this universe due to licensing issues and popularity like what Gman pointed out, but if Legendary did put a theropod like monster dinosaur in a Kong movie, I think it would be a great wink to the fans.

I always thought Gorosaurus was always a throwback to the T-rex King Kong fought in 1933. I felt Gorosaurus is just a dinosaur Toho wanted King Kong to fight to highlight what made king Kong(1933) film so great. Remember, Honda and Tsuburaya were inspired by the film to make their own giant monster film. So to me(IMO) Toho pretty much made a fan film and needed something familiar for Kong to fight.

I also think if it weren't for Destroy All Monsters and Gorosaurs fighting by Godzilla's side, Gorosaurus would forgotten by the wayside long ago.

That's just my 2 cents. As much as I would love to see Gorosaurus and as many Kaiju get an American make over and feature in a new Godzilla film. Gorosaurus would probably be on the bottom of the list.

The unfortunate part of that is that it is very true. They will likely create a new kaiju for that role. But if the monsterverse does include the real trademarked gorosaurus, then I would be surprised. That would really show how much love, money and effort the people behind the scenes have and want to spend for these movies.

well... a fan can still dream, right?

Its still doesn't mean we cant still throw out fun topics like the one here right? I only say this to contribute to the conversation, not to deter it. So by all means keep 'em coming. Its still fun.

@riggzamortis86 and KaijuWorld You know, I'm seeing this and thinking, "Wait a minute. If Gorosaurus may not be possible, will Zilla?" Just a random question/forum idea. Also, since you created a second page via comments, the arrow just points to the forum, and not my comment. Lol.

@MinecraftDinoKaiju, I can pretty much, without a doubt or any insight into the workings of Monsterverse or plot, guarantee you that Zilla would never work in the monsterverse. Not because of any probability or source material that can muster up, but because out of all the monsters that have ever graced the Toho or Godzilla universes, Zilla is most likely the most hated and loathed. It has no place in this series or anything else for that matter.

Zilla reeks of failure on every level. Yes the movie made lots of money at the box office in 1998, but the monster itself is a terrible joke that wont ever be seen on the big screen again. And for good reason.

Legendary wont touch that monster with a 1000ft pole near its franchise.

Zilla is only good for a punching bag.

But, hey that's my 2 cents(that I found in the street next to a dead dog) on Zilla. Its still fun to talk about.

MinecraftDinoKaiju,
The names "Minilla", "Baby Godzilla", "Little Godzilla" and "Godzilla Junior" are all trademarked, so Legendary would have to choose which license they wanted for a Godzilla offspring. I could see them getting the rights to "Baby Godzilla" before "Godzilla Jr." if Legendary ever went the "son of Godzilla" route, just because it's a more straightforward name.

And that was what I was talking about (not Minilla). That is what I was trying to say.

Honestly though Toho seems to be pushing Minilla a lot more lately, since recent popularity polls in Japan have shown him to be one of the most popular monsters. I would see Toho pushing him on Legendary if they wanted to acquire a "son of Godzilla" character, and Legendary might go with him in that hypothetical scenario if they were given enough freedom with how to portray the character. He probably has marginally more marketability than any of the versions of Junior overall and substantially more marketability than Junior as far as the Japanese fanbase is concerned.
