Final Wars Question: Destoroyah?

[kingGoji1954]

was the rumor true that Destroyah was thrown around for the final "VILLIAN" in GFW?? or was it just that a nothing rumor?? plz explain fellow G-Fans.

[JVM]

What the hell does it matter? Destoroyah would have been BUTCHERED if they used him. GFW's the worst movie of all time.

[kingGoji1954]

Just a question chief

[JVM]

As far as I know, Destoroyah was never planned for GFW.

All I've heard about monster selection is that they tossed some toys out of various Godzilla monsters and Kitamura picked his favorites.

[Gorosaurus Rex]

Never before have i heard this rumor. The only monster that was seriously rumored to be in GFW that didn't make it was Gorosaurus...

[Primevalgodzilla V2]

I doubt it. I hink KG was the only choice all along.

[kingGoji1954]

ya i wasnt sure on the reliability of the rumor i herd. thanks for the in put guys.

[JVM]

MechaGodzilla and Gorosaurus. MechaGodzilla was cut for budget reasons, and Gorosaurus was replaced with Zilla.

[JVM]

Ganime and where replace by Ebirah.

I haven't heard this one before.

I remember reading about Kiryu having some type of role in the movie, but I'm not sure if this was real or not?

Yes and no. A Mechagodzilla was planned to appear, but since Tezuka was not involved, it would not have been Kiryu.

Kpa stated before in the old TK board that all Godzilla monsters were considered for GFW, but not all were considered seriously. So you could say Biollante, Orga, and Mecha-King Ghidorah were considered, but they probably weren't conisdered seriously and were quickly axed. I don't think any Heisei monster was considered seriously because their origins were so specifically tied-in with their movies. Showa monsters are easier to work with since their origins are simpler and they would work for a Destroy All Monsters remake. I'm sure Destoroyah was considered for the film, but was probably axed quickly.

GFW's the worst movie of all time.

Over-exaggeration for the win!

[Goji]

I don't think Ebirah "being weak in the movie" had anything to do with Ganimes (supposedly) being considered at one point. Seeing that Ebirah was actually in a Godzilla film, the idea that any kaiju from SPACE AMOEBA was considered seems really hard to believe. Ebirah went down the way he did because the script called for it. That's about it.

[Xx_The_Masquerade_xX]

Despite the fact that i really don't care for Ebirah an The Smog monster it would have been cool to see scene's of them battling it out under-water before Godzilla blasted them to hell.

The Spider an Ant thing ''forgot there names'' where fine getting killed quickly.. but they both should have attacked Godzilla together to make the scene more interesting an slightly longer.

Zilla's death was just fine.. Quick an easy.. maybe another minute 30 seconds showing him under-ground or climbing a building an Godzilla blasting him would have been alright too.

Should have also had Titanosaurus in there tag teamed with ''Mecha-Godzilla'' the Classic appearance of the ''First design'' kind of like repeating ''Terror of Mecha-Godzilla'' an Godzilla beat Titanosaurus an have King Ghidorah show up an have a 2 on 1 battle an have Rodan an King Ceasar comeback an helping Godzilla take out Mecha-G. An let Godzilla an King Ghidorah battle it out as a fitting end.

That would have been awesome to see at-least for me. Also wouldn't have minded seeing Mothra an Gigan's battle last longer too.

Although i am glad Biollante didn't make an appearance, As much as i do love that creature an design as a personal favorite she was just to unique to actually fit in this film without totally destroying her character.

[Killswitch]

Years later, I am still shocked at how bad that movie was/is. Especially considering it was supposed to be Godzilla's last.
50 years of service and no respect!

FW Godzilla was orginally Godzilla jr so Destroyer would make alot of sense as the final villian.

I'll own up, I did exaggerate a teensy bit.

But it IS one of the worst movies of all time.

Not even close.

[EleKaiju]

I do recall hearing some sort of rumor that the original idea for GFW did involve Junior as the main Goji, but was changed when Kitumara took over.

I doubt it, though.

[Showa Gyaos]

I've never heard of Destoroyah being considered for Godzilla: Final Wars. I know that another Mechagodzilla was considered.

No. Just... no.

I'll grant you one of the worst Godzilla films, one of the worst TOHO films, but I don't think it even makes it into the top 50 worst movies ever. Hell, not even the top 100.
