I'm sorry, but Baragon is just too weak for an opponent, and too darn cute for this film. But would that then imply G to be evil, or would Baragon be evil?


Do they really need to be defined as good or evil?

Why not just have them be monsters?

That works too, I just would rather G battle an evil opponent rather than just a monster.

I want a Baragon thats atleast taller then he already is now (GMK) and more menacing like you said.

I think King Ghidorah desperately needs a break.



All the monster's in the Godzilla franchise have been on break since 2004, By the time this films release it will be a good decade since we have seen any of them.

An while Godzilla maybe Iconic an well known to the Public, General audiences aren't familiar with any other monsters in the Toho series outside of possibly Mothra.

So while we all be thrilled with a new monster, or a lesser used villain... American Audiences would be just as pleased with a proper adaption for King Ghidorah, Mecha-Godzilla, Rodan an many other's even a Mothra ''could'' be done if handled right.

I would prefer Mechagodzilla to appear in a sequel, since he's sequel material. It would work for him to appear in the first film, but it would be better if he was saved for the sequel.

No.

And if they decide to include Mecha Godzilla in a sequel, i hope it's Kiryu.. Aliens could end up being really cheesy if they do it wrong.

Would be really epic if that terrorist group stole Kiryu..

If MG shows up in the LP film (which I'm sure he wont) it will most likely be a brand new version of the character with a brand new design.

True. Mogura was a bitch in the old film then in GvsSG he became one of the most durable tanks of the 90's. And Rodan has sort of gone through the reverse going from being one of Godzilla's equals to just being an above average monster.

I could imagine a basic kaiju like Baragon being used anyway, and ol' Bary needs more screen time.

No way.

First off, MechaGodzilla needs a complex, decent origin going for him in this kind of era, and to give him the time he needs, he'd overshadow Godzilla in here. So that's a no.

Second off, if they stick with the 'kaiju defense' idea, they can't go right away. They'd need a universe where monsters already attack all the time, which I doubt will be the idea for movie #1.

Looking at that Pacific Rim poster yesterday it got me thinking. If they can build robots that big then MechaGodzilla is certainly doable for the LP Godzilla movies but Id save him for the 3rd

If they plan to make this reboot a franchise, than Mecha-Godzilla just doesn't work for the first film. It's a bit too much to process in a film that's sort of already reintroducing you to the Godzilla mythos.

I agree with the statement above by ''Gorosaurus Rex'' If there reintroducing Godzilla for the first time to U.S. shores, then they would know nothing of Godzilla or have the technology an advanced weapon's to make Mecha-Godzilla the mechanical terror he is supposed to be... Unless they go the Alien route but they've pretty much suggested or hinted that's not the case with this film.

Godzilla, Rodan, an King Ghidorah would be my personal favorite choices. Though i wouldn't mind Anguirus in place of Rodan either... But there is a perfect Origin for all.... Rodan being from prehistoric times, in a deep slumber buried under-ground. Godzilla with his nuclear terror background an King Ghidorah being a space monster but lands on earth within a meteor which the impact is what causes tremors, earthquakes, an volcanic eruptions which is what awaken's the other monsters.

Very similar to ''Ghidorah The three headed monster'' in terms of story, almost the same actually. But i think it's an easy way to give all monster's there share of screen-time an most of the general audiences are unfamiliar with GTTHM

Or you could do it like KoM where they build him in one month but that's just silly.

I know, i know..

I mean like as far as the character goes. Would be cool to see the military build it to fight Godzilla. Against Mechagodzilla and Tokyo SOS are my favourite Godzilla movies.
