how to include Biollante into the monsterverse

Thank you for the time you out into this.

I agree to have human cells fused with Godzilla cells. I like the Skull Island origin. But how does Monarch have Godzilla cells? That's my only beef with it all. But this was awesome to read. I love Biollante and this was fun to read. Great job.

Thanks a lot for the positive response.

I did not really think about how monarch got the Godzilla cells. Maybe Monarch collected some cells from Godzilla whilst he was knocked out in the 2014 movie. You could also combine this with the Godzilla Jr forum, where they got some cells from Godzilla Jr. Those are just some examples though.

That makes sense. There were not any dates on the story so I was confused as to when the 90's expedition brought the Skull Island flower and then the G-cells were introduced. That's all.

But adding the possibility of Godzilla Jr.'s cells makes sense too.

Yeah, maybe I should have been more clear about when the story takes place. 

Now I  have added a small note around the part of the disaster that States that those events take place around 2014 to 2020. This time period is around the time that in my opinion would make sense and fit in the story seeing as more time passes later on.

The part where Biollante and Godzilla fight would be around 2022 to 2026. This is when I would imagine Godzilla 3 to release and take place. That is assuming that they use Biollante in Godzilla 3

^... or even having a "Godzilla 3" at all. Seeing how this Monsterverse may be playing without Godzilla and the gang after 2020. I would hope that possibly the Monsterverse will continue with Godzilla in it after GvK.

I like that Toho wants to make a Cinematic Universe out of its licensed properties, but the way I look at it(depending on how well G:KOTM and GvK do in the box office) why not continue in the Monsterverse. I know Legendary has some problems right now, but hopefully these movies along with the other Legendary releases gets them out of the problems and continue with the Monsterverse.

I mean no matter what, whether its Toho or Legendary we will see a "Monsterverse" and maybe see all these monsters and Kaiju that we all talk about one way or another.

I feel like the fans will be happy anyway it goes with the movies.

the monsterverse stops making movies with Godzilla. great, now we have many Japanese Godzilla movies to look forward to. the rights of Godzilla get extended. great, now we are getting more of the monsterverse to look forward to.

maybe Toho and legendary can even find a middle ground for the rights and both make movies. but maybe that's asking a bit too much.

anyway, it is a good time to be a Godzilla fan for sure. 

Seeing as there isn’t a lot of activity on the site recently, I thought I would give you guys an update for next weeks forum for the ”how to include into the monsterverse” series. I have 4 options that I want to do next, but I want to know which one of these you would like to see first. Here are the options.

Jet Jaguar: a highly demanded character for a lot of people, but for this I would have to change a lot of his origins.

Orga: a kaiju that is surprisingly liked by a lot of people and one with a lot of potential for an original story.

Megaguirus: a kaiju connected to the original Rodan movie which could lead to some interesting stories.

Hedorah: a kaiju from a very controversial movie in the franchise. Fans want to see this kaiju return and face Godzilla ones again.

this is just an update to the people that were expecting a new forum today.

seeing as the popularity of the series has gone down massively and because I want to move on to other subjects for the site, I will give the "how to include into the monsterverse" series a break.

I feel like people are getting a bit bored of the series and the fact that there isn't a lot of hope for the future of the monsterverse also doesn't help.

maybe in the future, I will continue the series if there is some confirmation of more monsterverse movies. an alternative could be to make it more of a "how to reboot" series for each monster, but we will have to see about that.

@KaijuWorld Do you mean like a series on how some of the monsters can fit into Toho's new GCU (Godzilla Cinematic Universe)?

Seeing as those are the next toho movies, you could take it in that way. This series wouldn't specifically aim at that though. It's more about what interesting ideas you can do with the monsters that haven't been done before. An example of this is how Hedorah was a bioweapon in the current anime universe, which was a very interesting direction to go with Hedorah.

But don’t get your hopes up, because I am probably going to do some other things instead. This is just something I might do in the future. Right now my next project is going to be a concept for a new Godzilla game and how I would (realistically) make a good kaiju game.

Hope it works out.

Maybe biollante can be alien (make by aliens) and its somethink else orga (aliens use godzilla cells but somethink fail)

I really don't see how or why they would implement Jet Jaguar. By the looks of the trailer to this new godzilla, humanity seems to be at the mercy of the titanic kaiju

I love this series, great work!

As for the OP, Biollante would be easier to explain than other monsters. She could be a prehistoric Venus Fly Trap who's DNA gets altered by man-made instruments. Perhaps she could get discovered on a secret island like Kong was.

I always loved Biollante, would love to see her brought to Hollywood.

Thanks for the compliments. :)

I share the same idea as you if the idea of Biollante being from a secret island though I chose skull island, but you could use any island to be fair.

I find it interesting that most people are oké with the idea of changing Biollante’s original form from a rose to something else. Personally (as I explained in the story) I imagine Biollante’s original form to look like a small (more flower sized) version of Biollante’s first form which then changes/mutates into her second form.

This series has really gained momentum, so I've added a sidebar feature with links to every topic posted so far! Great work, KaijuWorld. As you post new entries in this series I will add them to the sidebar list. :)

WOW, thank you so much. I would never have thought that this series would get so far.

as of right now, I don't have any plans for more topics in this series. I am kind of waiting for some BIG news that announces more monsterverse movies, then I am going to make some more of these topics. there are some monsters like Hedorah and Orga which I which I would like to make a topic out of for this series.

if there are any monsters you would like to see in this series, please tell me them. I am all up for other peoples ideas and maybe even a concept which I could dive into for a certain monster.

First of all, I've read your pitch on ETN's Biollante pitch video, it is the same here as it is there. Second, I'm brutally honest, so I'll tell you that my reaction to your whole pitch is just the same as it was on YouTube. Third, there's an easier, simpler way to adapt Biollante without resorting to insane idiocy:

1) Straight off the bat — completely take away any biological connection she has with Godzilla (or a scientist's dead daughter) and have her be her own entity. Pure sci-fi and complicated elements from the classic Toho films just don't work in the MonsterVerse's realistic setting. It'll piss off the fans for sure, but if it sells her for the GA then it's a small price to pay.

2) It's already established in the MV's Skull Island that many of the animals have aggressively evolved to a point where they've become a natural hybrid mix of flora and fauna, and Biollante is already a florafauna creature so you can make it work from there. She resides peacefully in one of the swamps or lakes of Skull Island where any unsuspecting creature can go in for a drink, her tentacles can camouflage as natural foliage and even detect when an animal is nearby. Any animal that's close to her vicinity, she'll ambush it with her tendons and drag it down and drown it like a crocodile, and in any worst case scenario should she be threaten or struggle, she'll reveal her massive self and use her jaws to clamp down and crush her victims with tremendous force, and for self defense she shoots out her acid sap breath.

No G-cells, no Frankenstein experiments, no crazy bullshit ideas, just a very short, sweet and simple way to adapt her and make her feel believable for both the MonsterVerse and the general audience.

I like all of these ideas, they play to the history of the character really well. I would like a slightly different approach though. I think it would be fun to have Biollante as a completely modern creation with no initial ties to the ancient world Godzilla is from. 

Imagine an idealistic unnamed scientist working for a Monsanto allegory company, attempting to solve world hunger or something like that. Due to lack of results the company tells him they’re going to pull his funding if he doesn’t have a breakthrough soon. In desperation he turns to the black market and blows the rest of his budget on recovered G-cells, then mixes them in with his plants. A few weeks later the plant kills him (not necessarily on purpose) in the lab and escapes. No human DNA mixed in, so less of a human style drive for Biollante. 

I think this this kind of origin would be easier for mainstream audiences to swallow, and it could fit into the Monsterverse narrative as a man made Titan as it were. Play up in the idea that Monarch has no clue what to do because they’ve never seen a situation like that before.

Thoughts?
