Re: Should Mecha-Godzilla be use in the reboot?
Just resurrecting this thread to compare our (collectively speaking) opinions prior to G'14 to now, after Mechagodzilla is now part of the Monsterverse--heh...the term "Monsterverse" wasn't even a thing in 2011/2012.
I admit that I never wanted MG in the Monsterverse, both because of his overuse and the relative realism of Godzilla '14. That said, I really enjoyed his design and his execution in GvK, plus the quality of the fight he was involved in.

I can safely come back to this 8+ year old thread and say that yes, they did MG right. Too right

I wondered why topic was here. I was like 'uh you mean when MV is over?'

Re: Should Mecha-Godzilla be use in the reboot?
I agree with this. I'm not saying I didn't like MG's inclusion, but I feel overall the monsterverse kind of drifted Marvel-style. By that I mean:
Godzilla 2014 - went for realism with some liberties, like the first Iron Man
Godzilla, KotM - slightly more sci-fi, similar to the first Avengers in realism vs action movie
GvK - Guardians of the Galaxy level tech, lots of action (and bright colors with an interesting soundtrack)
Overall it was still a very fun series of movies, especially for the fans.
Godzilla & Gamera High Grade (gashapon) collector.
Looking for: spare High Grade insert papers (various sets)

I think it’s safe to say the MV will continue at this point loldarkcancer wrote: ↑Thu Apr 08, 2021 3:09 am Overall it was still a very fun series of movies, especially for the fans.

Nah there's no way Mechagodzilla appears in the reboot lol. An American Godzilla movie showing Mechagodzilla? Gimme a break. I also heard some people telling me that Godzilla and Kong would also be in the reboot and team up to fight it? Haha what a pipe dream amiright guys?

Bruh, that's so whack. I also heard about some 'Hollow Earth' shit and them having a space faring King Ghidorah. How laughable!Hokmuto wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 12:33 am Nah there's no way Mechagodzilla appears in the reboot lol. An American Godzilla movie showing Mechagodzilla? Gimme a break.

Man, I was still in high school when this thread was posted. It's hard to believe it's almost been a decade since the Big-G got his big return.

You think that's bad? I was 8 when this thread was made. I can't even remember if I'd seen a Godzilla movie yet.shadowgigan wrote: ↑Wed Mar 09, 2022 7:39 pm Man, I was still in high school when this thread was posted.

I was in the 3rd grade, and became a Godzilla fan in 2011. Now I'm in college. Crazy how much of a kaiju renaissance the last 8-9 years has been.Voyager wrote: ↑Wed Mar 09, 2022 9:12 pmYou think that's bad? I was 8 when this thread was made.

I wonder how fans in 2011 would've reacted if you went back in time and told them in ten years Godzilla and Kong would fight again in a shared universe of big-budget American kaiju movies. Oh and Toho stepped in in 2016, made the most commercially successful Godzilla reboot ever, and then "technically" went on hiatus again.
