Speaking of Monster Zero, I'd still like to become a citizen of Planet X. I mean think about it, a planet where all the women look like Kumi Mizuno! Who wouldn't want to live there?

...*shrugs* makes more sense than the real subject of this thread.

First thing, it wouldn't be exactly overkill if Godzilla, Amguirus, and Rodan fought King Ghidorah, 3 monsters vs. the 3 headed monster, but then again already been done with Godzilla, Rodan, and Mothra.

Second thing, I would rather have seen Anguirus as well but he couldn't fly. You need another flying monster.

On one hand you can live out the twin fetish fantasy or whatever. On the other hand I'd rather have some variety as all the women looking exactly the same (maybe even acting the same, and having the same tastes in everything) would be boring after a while. I know you're joking but I can still give a serious answer to a joke question. :P

Anguirus might've made a nice change of pace in this movie, but I agree that Rodan made much more sense. In addition to having already fought and beat Ghidorah in the previous movie, he's a far more dangerous weapon for the Xilliens then Anguirus. Being land-bound and with no ranged weapons, Anguirus makes a reletively easy target for the military; they could probably drive him off or at least limit his movement without much difficulty. Rodan can go anywhere and destroy anything he wants, and short of nuking him there isn't a whole lot humanity can do about it.

If anything, I'd kinda would like to have seen Godzilla and Varan take on Ghidorah in Monster Zero, he could fly.

No, i don't believe godzilla and varan are going to make a good team, i'll just stick with rodan since they are "friends".

I don't think Godzilla and Rodan were ever "friends" just watch Ghidorah, The Three Headed Monster, or Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla 2. I don't think Godzilla would count Rodan as a "friend"

They were allies who respected but disliked eachother. Also, Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II isn't relevant to a Showa discussion.

Ghidorah, The Three Headed Monster- True, but they just got off on the wrong foot, but they do become friends after there battle with Ghidorah.

Godzilla vs Mecha-Godzilla 2- Different series, Different storys, and at the end rodan sacrifice himself to heal godzilla so he can defeat mecha-godzilla.

Yeah I do agree that they respect but dislike each other, in Monster Zero Rodan was forced to help Godzilla fight Ghidorah, they brought him and Godzilla up there, they had no choice but work together and battle Ghidorah.

I think that if Angirasu was used instead of Radon, the major rampage scenes couldn't have recycled as much footage from Rodan and Mothra. The shots of military vehicles would have still been there, though.
Every film should have at least one animal attack.

In Monster Zero their allies notice how they're close to each other when their captured and then Godzilla waits for Rodan to awake before to attacks Ghidorah.
