For the discussion of Toho produced and distributed films or shows released before 1980.

No Showa film should be 'remade.' Granted, if Legendary Studios borrows some elements from say, GHIDORAH, then that's fine. But remakes are unnecessary.

Though I must admit the thought of a scene-for-scene remake of DESTROY ALL MONSTERS with today's effects would be pretty epic.
Making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.

These movies should be left alone (maybe KK Vs G) but "if" Toho decides to make another movie with some scenes
being re enacted then it would be Ok.
Unstoppable Fury , Unthinkable Power , Unbreakable Will.

I thought that is what they did with final wars?!?!?!?!


Wait, what? I think the Showa films are fine and don't need to be remade. Leave the classics alone for once!

Nippon Tanjo (movie Orochi shown is from) technically did get remade in the form of Yamato Takeru.

The rest that you listed are some that I personally would love to see be remade. I would also add Ghidrah to the list as I'm sure better effects would make that movie even more fantastic than it already is.

Probably Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla, but with both King Caesar, & Titanosaurus, that would be awesome.

Not so much of a remake, but I've always wanted to see a huge monster battle ala "Destroy all Monsters)but give Gihdorah some help this time (Gigan, Mechagodzilla, Hedorah). A big mother of a battle royale...

Well its just that I've always wanted to see something like that happen, I've also wanted to see Titanosaurus team up with Godzilla and the others, I think that would cool to see.

that might be possible, you see the girl dies at the end of the movie, so the peaceful titanosaurus might even stand beside godzilla now. not a very good fighter tho

Wouldn't mind seeing particular Kaiju from the Showa era/universe re-introduced/updated for a new era of Godzilla films, but not really that interested in seeing any of those films remade. Fine as is.

The very original, with Godzilla reprising his hardass role in an updated, no holds barred, as graphic as the original was supposed to be, slaughterfest of a film. Him demolishing innocent victims and incinerating them in radiation blasts, a true representation of Hiroshima's horrors again, to show new generations how sick and devastating Weapons of Mass Destruction truly are, especially when used on civilians.

^The original wasn't supposed to be graphic. It didn't need to be.
