Worst Ideas For The Godzilla Franchise

Post by PitchBlackProgress »

Thought we could use another comic-relief thread, this time the name of the game is to come up with the worst and clingiest ideas for the Godzilla franchise as a whole. This goes for movies, crossovers, games, comics, casting, etc.

So without further ado, let’s get this thread going.

Give Godzilla 1998 its long awaited follow up sequel.

Putting Bagan in the MonsterVerse

Making a Shin Gojira sequel

Making a Godzilla/Pacific Rim crossover film

Having Batman appear in the MonsterVerse

Godzilla/Superhero (DC or MCU) crossover movie

Yeah, Godzilla wins... sometimes. I mean, he was killed by Dr. Serizawa's patented bubble-bath formula, heartburn, missiles, and poor box office returns, got his ass kicked by a drunken, circus-escaped gorilla, then he was beaten by two newborn worms, yeah some “king”.

My fan-fic being turned into a film. No way Toho would allow human trafficking to be the theme of a Godzilla film. Nuff said.

Shamelessly selling out.

When I was a kid I thought shrinking down Godzilla to human size was a cool idea, but looking back on it now...

I will slap 64 warnings on you and the reason will be, "Wrong think". This forum is a dictatorship.

A'ight enough memes.

>Making Godzilla films more geared towards children, ala "Godzilla's Revenge". It's a wierd line for me. Books can easily work and net profit, a TV show might work wonders as well. An entire onscreen film with a budget of like 10m yen? Eeeeh, noooo. Kinda taking a massive gamble. Then again, Shin was a gamble as well and they went all in on the chips. I just really don't see the films being all too successful going back down that route.

>Making another "Like the movies game". For the longest time, fans always wanted a game like this. They got it in Godzilla VS. Didn't go that well.

>As the OP mentioned;
Having Batman appear in the MonsterVerse

Godzilla/Superhero (DC or MCU) crossover movie
These.

I believe your remembering right. I think an issue of Dark Horse was centered around this. Didn't the Hannah Barbera Godzilla shrink down to human size for a small while and continue to shrink further?

I remember as a kid I thought it'd be cool if a character got Godzilla atomic breath powers thanks to irresponsible use of Godzilla DNA, but he also grew Godzilla spikes along his back that poked through his leather jacket. So yeah a Godzilla man, I know now it'd be kind of corny, but this was the Heisei era after all.
I unapologetically, wholeheartedly, and without a doubt hate Godzilla vs Kong.

That and GMK was vague about the war crimes in the Pacific Godzilla and the ghosts were seeking to punish Japan (and the world) for but we all know they are saying the fucked up shit that happened in WW2 like Unit 731 without actually saying it. Obviously they kept it vague since the film is still aimed at everyone, including young children.

The next Godzilla design is reminiscent of the new live action films Ninja Turtles.

The government create super soldiers by infusing soldiers with G-cells. Now 8 foot scaly Hulk/Abomination looking guys are shooting atomic breath and blowing up the city!

They get cocky and try to fight Godzilla, but he kills them all pretty easy.

Marvel, at least (he fought The Thing, from Fantastic Four). Not sure if Dark Horse did, too.

A Godzilla vs. King Kong film where both of them have been billed as heroes and defenders and one of them definitively loses to the other.

Oh yeah, I went there.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is one of the things Kaneko and Toho vehemently disagreed over. Toho, at that time especially, staunchly believed Godzilla's primary audience should be children and didn't want anything to threaten that. Obviously the war crimes are an extremely sensitive subject in Japan and Kaneko probably had some tight restrictions placed on him about how far he could go with it. While GMK is still one of the best Godzilla films, the entire affair screams compromise and Kaneko admitted he wasn't entirely satisfied from the get go if I'm not mistaken.
