People bring up that no one knows who Gamera is. Well, people didn't know who the Guardians of the Galaxy were but still looked into it. Where am I going with this?GodzillaFan1990's wrote:The difference with Kong was that he's an recognizable cinematic icon (That also had crossover with Godzilla nearly sixty years ago may I remind you due to Toho honoring the character for being one of their creators inspirations) who began the giant monster genre and one of the inspirations for Godzilla whereas Gamera's from an almost dead franchise only barely alive because of the kaiju fandom. I admit though if anyone can revive Gamera, its definitely Legendary by getting the rights from his owners but as you said though 'unlikely but not impossible'. There's a small chance it might happen but I really wouldn't hold my breath.
1. An obscure franchise is a new IP as far as the GA knows, so give them a reboot film to establish who Gamera is to them I.E. don't make their first exposer to him a sequel. Less baggage to carry.
2. Introduce him late in the game. Now would be risky but later on when kaiju movies have really picked up steam and become mainstream enough, you can take a risk on a Gamera movie, much how Marvel took a risk with Guardians long, long after their movies became mainstream.
3. Toho. Honestly, I see this as the real roadblock, even if they are cool with a Gamera vs Godzilla movie, that might be something they themselves wanna do to top Legendary's Godzilla vs Kong, and not want Legendary to have him. We've seen evidence hinting that Godzilla and Gamera are gonna be in an upcoming game together.
