Nope. If Gamera can't play a role with Godzilla, then no new kaiju will.
Expect Gamera was created as a direct competitor to Godzilla and not a pass the torch character. Also Godzilla vs Gamera wouldn't have a clear winner without some plot twist where as the new kaiju creators would be going in with Godzilla winning.

KKvsG is far from my favorite, but it's not even close to being a shitty film.

Well, the Japanese version is. The American version can't seem to decide what it is.
...which is why the Japanese Version is superior.
But yeah, I agree with Vatarian on this. You can make Godzilla lose because he's the bad guy, whatever. Don't drag his name through the mud in the process and humiliate him by taking away everything that made him strong and... well, a GOD.

Who should have won..... who should have won........
Well, neither won originally, but who SHOULD have...... that's hard.
At the time, Godzilla was seen as evil, and Kong...... not evil, but just misunderstood. So, in that situation, Kong should have won.
Godzilla was much stronger than Kong, even with Kong getting super-sized and charged with electricity. I think Godzilla was basically laughing at Kong the whole fight, and the only reason Kong stood a chance was because Godzilla went easy on him (somebody said that somewhere on here, and I completely agree- I think that was a year or so ago, I'll never find it) So, in that situation, Godzilla should have won.
I love Kong, just cause he's King Kong, but I also love Godzilla, just cause he's Gojira.......
UGH, HARD DECISIONS!!!!
Godzilla.

Maybe Minilla was some mutation inside a Kamacarus' ootheca and that's why they attacked..... Maybe Minilla ISN'T the Son of Godzilla! He's some weird Kamacari that Godzilla felt bad for!
..... Nope, the other guys would never accept that..........

Godzilla is a big, radioactive reptile. He's not a god.
they made the right call for a draw. you can't appeal to a broad audience by destroying their monster, nor can you expect people to fall in love with yours if it kills something popular. promote a sense of competition and make them appear equal, show a pair of fights, and let the audience pick a side. smart marketing and a great movie.

While I disagree with this kind of marketing, I see where you're coming from. I mean, what you said does make sense in a way.
I still don't like how they treated Godzilla in this movie. I know it's a comedy, but still...

What'd they take away?
His competence, hand-eye coordination, and depth-perception.

to be fair, he wasn't necessarily competent prior to this film, either. he gets competent after, not before, though.

You're one to talk about fanboyism and seeing things from inside a bubble.

Everyone that is mad at Kong winning know that early showa Godzilla was much weaker than the late Showa Godzilla correct? This same Godzilla could barely even deal with Angurius and Toho Kong got stronger from what Godzilla was getting weaker from.
Godzilla was also pretty stupid pre GTTHM.
