Nah, I think it would be cooler to have it be a new monster, so everyone's like "oh shit there's still a monster? One worst then that planet killer super monster King Ghidorah? :freak:

Yeah it was kinda a let down that it was just a ploy by the aliens to win through tricks. Back then a new monster would have been an a plot twist no one saw coming.

Some one needs to draw a picture of Fire Dragon kaiju-ized.

If it had been a monster I picture it would look like a cross between a dragon(duh) and a phoenix when it's on land and it would have "details" like feathers and eyes, teeth filled beak but when flying really fast it would look like nothing but a big fire ball with wings.

I always figured that if the Fire Dragon were ever an actual monster, it'd be something similar to Mogu, in the guisage seen here: http://dinohunter2.deviantart.com/galle ... 7#/d1ovvik
Today, at the edge of our hope...

At the end of our time, we have chosen to believe in each other.

Today we face the monsters that are at our door.

TODAY WE ARE CANCELLING THE APOCALYPSE!

Speaking of fire, anyone else notice that when King Ghidorah first pops out of his meteor cocoon thing he starts off as living fire before taking on a physical form?

I'd imagine Fire Dragon'd look like Mogu with a little King Seesar body design with scales and no fur.
@ Living Corpse
I noticed that too. Maybe it's the gravity being pulled in by Ghidorah like in Zone Fighter Episode 5-6.

That right there might have been a good way to explain the Fire Dragon as well... but it never was

The Fire Dragon was unnecessary. It just eats up screen time in an already lackluster movie.

But it makes our space heroes looks good. They can't have the monsters up staging them.

A Fire Dragon Ghidorah would be interesting to see.

Yeah, Ryuhei Kitamura, that's how you give the human heroes a minute to shine. One good opponent, and not half the Godzy-damned movie.
