Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
Around 2010, there was a bit of news that sadly didn't bear fruit that the SHOGUN WARRIORS were looking at getting a full on, live action theatrical debut(http://www.aintitcool.com/node/44426), starting off with GAIKING. A test trailer was even made to pimp out the feature to drum up interest.
Probably a lot of people's here first Godzilla toy, like me, was the Godzilla toy that was part of Mattel's stateside release of the SHOGUN WARRIORS. And the line was even licensed by Marvel in a short lived comic series by the same creative team as Marvel's GODZILLA:King of the Monsters, Doug Moench and Herb Trimpe.
I was thinking that after nearly forty years Legendary could be the ones to bring the Shogun Warriors(Gaiking, Raydeen, Mazeenga/Tranzor-Z, Dangard Ace), and have them battle it out with Godzilla finally in the Monsterverse.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
Space Amoeba I agree is unlikely but I wouldn't say War of the Gargantuas isn't too out of the question considering its increasing popularity due to Rulers of Earth. I'd say there's a good shot in it being put into the verse especially since Brad Pitt is a fan of the movie and would probably express interest in having a role if such a remake were to happen.ZinK wrote:-I want LP to remake some of the lesser-known kaiju films like War of The Gargantuas or Space Amoeba.

Out of the non-related Godzilla films (Space Amoeba, Dogora, Half-Human, etc). War of the Gargantuas is the most likely to be added to the MonsterVerse.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
Maybe Legendary could make a deal with Universal (Similar to Marvel Studios and Sony with Spider-Man) to have Frankenstein be added to the verse which could eventually lead to Frankenstein vs. King Kong (A concept that was actually going to happen involving Doctor Frankenstein's descendant creating his own Frankenstein's Monster from various animal body parts) and War of the Gargantuas.ZinK wrote:I'm trying to think of a way they could do the origins without including Frankenstein.

Fallout from the 1954 bombs could have mutated two brothers, creating the Gargantuas.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
That's actually an awesome idea. I'm not sure how the general audience would react to King Kong vs Frankenstein though, it would sound ridiculous to non-fans.GodzillaFan1990's wrote:Maybe Legendary could make a deal with Universal (Similar to Marvel Studios and Sony with Spider-Man) to have Frankenstein be added to the verse which could eventually lead to Frankenstein vs. King Kong (A concept that was actually going to happen involving Doctor Frankenstein's descendant creating his own Frankenstein's Monster from various animal body parts) and War of the Gargantuas.ZinK wrote:I'm trying to think of a way they could do the origins without including Frankenstein.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
And I honestly wouldn't think it'd be too hard to do since like Frankenstein's Monster. King Kong too is Universal property so some deal had to have already happened or something for Godzilla's and King Kong's shared cinematic universe to be done...ZinK wrote:That's actually an awesome idea.

But if they can't manage to, maybe have Sanda and Gaira be the result of illegal genetic experiments on humans gone wrong perhaps or change their origins to unknown primates related to King Kong or what Coob said. I don't know just throwing out possibilities.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
Hedorah could easily fit into the Monsterverse, could be made awe-inspiring and terrifying with CGI, and would all around be an amazing villain. I wouldn't be opposed to Hedorah being the final foe of the Monsterverse.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
I'd really dig it if Frankenstein's monster could be worked into the MonsterVerse somehow. All of the most iconic movie monsters together in the same universe for the first time since the Showa series- it would be a dream come true. I could see Monarch obtaining the remains of the original Creature during World War II and using it's DNA to create their own humanoid kaiju. This could even be the plot for a third 'stand alone' entry in the franchise, not just as the story of a Kong/Godzilla movie. I'd love to see that.
I'm thoroughly opposed to changing Sanda and Gaira's origin however. That would take away too much of their uniqueness.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
That's...Actually pretty brilliant and speaking of which how about better yet resurrect his remains due to doing something to the corpse like injecting it with some unknown substances or something which not only brings Frankenstein's Monster back to life but also causes him to grow to kaiju size along with being given super regeneration as well (Hence Gaira's and Sanda's origins eventually).Ivo-goji wrote:I'd really dig it if Frankenstein's monster could be worked into the MonsterVerse somehow.

To add onto that in the novel, Frankenstein's Monster retreated into the arctic, maybe Monarch could find his remains there.

Frankenstein's monster is public domain. No deal would be required.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
Really then? If that's the case, they can just go ahead and do it which I hope they do or maybe we should catch Legendary's attention by bringing up the idea to them or start a petition because lets be honest, this is a concept idea that'd be very intriguing especially since it'd be a good way to built up for a War of the Gargantuas remake thus keeping Gaira's and Sanda's origins intact.xenotactics wrote:Frankenstein's monster is public domain.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
I think it is likely that War of Gargantuas would be remade I don't think it's very likely that they'll keep the origins the same. I honestly don't expect any mention of Frankenstein if it happens.

Re: 'Wishlists,' for the Legend-verse of Godzilla
I think the odds are vastly in favor of an iconic public domain character like Frankenstein's monster being introduced in this continuity compared to the odds of Legendary shilling out more money to Toho for using two of their monsters that are bearly recognized outside of the daikaiju fandom.

Since Megalon is a pretty well-known kaiju amongst the mainstream audiences outside of Godzilla, I wouldn't be surprised if he makes it in a future film.
