Which Showa Gamera Monsters Should Return?

[Living Corpse]

Barugon. Get too close and you take a chill pill. Get too far and you taste the rainbow mother F-.

[Chompamunchasaurus]

Jiger is one I'd love to see make a return. On top of being in the first Gamera flick I ever saw, Gamera Vs. Monster-X , she perhaps has one of the most nastiest ways of taking out an opponent by impregnating them with her larva. Considering that sahe posseessed limited flight abilities similar to Gamera, I could see the kaiju in a new flick, or story. Being sort've another creation of the Atlanteans to stop the spread of Gyaos, but balked at the idea that this Gyaos stopper might end up becoming just as much a threat as the Gyoas did, due to Jiger's own weaponized reproduction. End one threat, another would take its place. So she was put away in suspended animation until a ways of properly disposing of her could be found. Then fast forward ten of thousands of years later, Jiger is awakened, and starts following her pre-programed directive to hunt ,and exterminate the Gyaos. Later on,several Gyaos are found to be acting down right rabid, attacking, in a beserk manner randomly. Gamera shows up to deal with the monster birds, exterminates one or two in the course of the battle. And the last one suddenly collapses in the middle of the fight, stars freaking out, foams at the mouth, and just before finally expiring, a baby Jiger, or two erupts from its stomach.

Nice idea, but my craziest fantasy was Gamera marching (or rather spinning) into battle against the Hypergyaos swarm, plowing throw the first wave of attackers and suddenly being shot out of the sky by a triple gravity beam. The armored monster gets up and faces the three headed world ender whom the Hypergyaos instinctively recognize as a ruler. Gamera prepares for the last battle as the army of winged horrors close in, but a mighty colorful shape suddenly appears and carries him away in a flash of light. The guardian turtle and the divine moth know they will need help in what seems a desperate battle and they go to find the King of Monsters.

Apart from that, my vote still goes to Jiger.

Jiger, Zigra, Guiron, Space Gyaos, and Showa Gyaos

[Irys X]

Guirion. Gotta love old knife-head.

[Giga Kaiju]

Barugon, Guiron and Space Gyaos.

Guiron would be interesting to see in a modern setting.

[Sydney Aradi]

Barugon (for his rainbow beam of doom, battering ram tounge & freezing powers)
Guiron (one of the few monsters to pierce Gamera's shell)
Showa Gyaos (nearly tore Gamera's arm off with his slicer ray)

[Giga Kaiju]

Barugon (for his rainbow beam of doom, battering ram tounge & freezing powers)
Guiron (one of the few monsters to pierce Gamera's shell)
Showa Gyaos (nearly tore Gamera's arm off with his slicer ray)

And dont forget that he completely sliced Gyaos.

Sh..... I forgot yeah that too

[Bentley]

Viras gets no love :p

I actually think Viras would make an interesting alien civilization, if there ever was one in Gamera lore.

[Gailah 1966]

If you remake the monsters in a modern style they would all look awesome. But one monster even don´t need a redesign. The design was perfect at all and could be used in modern kaiju eiga as well.
I´m talking about......BARUGON! (nice look, nice features, nice background story)

[Living Corpse]

I know I said Barugon but if I had to have a second choice I wouldn't mind a Space Gyaos either. Hey it makes just as much sense as Spacegodzilla did which was none.

[shinmattiathekaiju]

Guiron, Viras and Zigra.

[Chompamunchasaurus]

A civilization entirely composed of idiots.
Kids: "The monster is on the loose!"
Aliens freaking out and running to check the monster.
Later in the movie we learn the monster actaully was the aliens' boss.
Whaaaaaaat?

[Tyler]

I thought there had been some sort of mutiny on board their ship.

[Legionmaster]

I thought it was a kids movie and it didn't really matter.

[Tyler]

Hey LGM's doing that thing again.

[Legionmaster]

Hey LGM's doing that thing again.

Cuz I know that's how you like it, baby. :-*

[Goji]

I've come to appreciate LGM's brand of humor over the years. Especially in comparison to some people around here who think they're funny, but really aren't. If it really irks you that much, you know what your options are..

[The One and Only]

Viras, the alien squid would be another one I'd like to see make a return. Heck, the bugger almost made a return in the second Heisei Gamera feature until the studio suits decided on going with another ,original kaiju. Thus Legion was born. A rather unique daikaiju due to the fact he/it was a mastermind, and grew to daikaiju proportions thanks to merging with his fellow brethren in order to equal Gamera's size and strength. Would've been interesting to see how Kaneko and company would've handled him if the Daiei had greenlighted his return.

Whaaaaaaat?

That's pretty much what went through my mind when I watched it. Terrible, terrible writing.
