Regarding the '91 film, who would "send out" Gigan? Who would he have been created by, the Futurians?


Well Godzilla 2000 did a similar thing with Orga and it worked out okay. As for adding Gigan, yes the Futurians would have created him.

Not really. Orga was basically the U.F.O., which is seen plenty throughout the film.

I voted for Gigan.

Gigan doesn't even need to be sent out, just find him buried under ice in the Arctic or something as a left over from aliens and humanity accidentally wakes him up when they try to dig him out.

^ A most likely stiff, bloated, beam-spamming Gigan? Cool isn't the first word that comes to mind, I have to say...

Design wise it might look cool (hey Goji and Bio looked awesome) but mobility wise it'd be pretty lame since he probably wouldn't be able to move fast on land, just in the air.

Hedorah is the only creature that would have worked in the Hesei era in my opinion. Pollution has always been an issue, and Hedorah is the best film commentary for that.
