How Did The Xillians Controll King Caesar?

it may have had no impact in the movie, but it's still what made him, him!

[Godzilla 2000]

it may have had no impact in the movie, but it's still what made him, him!

How can it matter so much if it had no impact in the only movie he starred in at the time?

It's honestly a silly thing to get bothered by. I always thought of KC as an organic kaiju, and when I found out about the golem thing, I was like "ah, thats interesting," and moved on.

If it had no impact on the film, as well as something that wasn't stated in the film, then it doesn't make King Ceasar King Ceasar.

[Patrick Alan]

it kinda does

[Godzilla 2000]

it kinda does

It matters as much as the color of Godzilla's blood, IMO.

Or it at least it should. I've no idea where this sudden fascination with KC being a golem came from, but whatev's.

[GotengoXGodzilla]

it kinda does

Why?

You could watch Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla without ever thinking that King Ceasar is a golem, and it has no impact on the film, nor the character of King Ceasar. Therefore, it doesn't matter.

Well, his eyes for one matter, his gem eyes reflecting Mecha G's beam's

...Having "gem eyes" doesn't make King Ceasar a golem.

Just like Godzilla 2000, I had no idea that King Ceasar was a golem until I saw that picture that proved he was one. It really didn't change the way I looked at King Ceasar.

[Patrick Alan]

Just like Godzilla 2000

what did Godzilla 2000 have to do with anything?

Having gem eyes isn't something that a living creature should have!

...He said the same thing that happened to me.

In case this wasn't obvious enough, I wasn't talking about the movie, Godzilla 2000.

Having gem eyes isn't something that a living creature should have!

...Says who?

We're talking about giant lizards that shot fire out of their mouths, and three-headed space dragons that shot "gravity bolts". A creature who has "gem eyes" isn't any more "out there" than other kaiju.

but none have object planted in there eye sockets

[edgaguirus]

Having gem eyes is tamer than some ideas Toho's had, like roaches from outer space.

And even some ideas that were thought of but never made it far.

You're missing the point.

The concept of King Caesar is no more "out there" than most other Toho monsters. It's not directly stated in the film that he is a golem, therefore it really doesn't change anything about his character for me.

I never thought of KC as a golem. I thought he was just laying down all cat-like and such in that Cave. Always flesh and blood, just sleeping.

I don't buy the "King Caesar is a robot" thing, for that matter.

I believe a lot of things that the Toho books publish, but that just doesn't make sense.

[Kaiju-King42]

There, now King Caesar's golem roots make sense:



He is supposed to be a "King Sisha", after all.
But really, I don't care what he's made of. I thought he was a flesh and blood being at first too.

How? It certainly accounts for his increased weight. It's called "Magic", it's a wondrously abused and irritating plot device that can account for everything and anything. King Caesar is an ancient magic robot.

FW King Caesar is a giant Lion man ogre thing.

[Shadow]

When I found out he was a golem, I assumed the body was being controlled by a deity or a god. Which would explain the inorganic body able to move around.

^ Shades of Daimajin?

I never really had a problem with "magic" characters. Most Sci-Fi ignores "science" so thoroughly that it leaps fully into fantasy, anyway.

[g2kmaster]

^ Shades of Daimajin?

That's what I always thought of King Caesar as (and will continue). It just seemed awesome to have Godzilla fighting along side an Okinawan diety.

I for some reason, have gotten this sense that people don't want dieties in their kaiju films (with the exception of Daimajin)...
