Should Millennium saga continue?

[Goji]

One word: No.

[Red-Death Gigan]

Return of Kiryu!

Kiryu versus something BESIDES Godzilla...

Like an "alien type monster", yet again. Maybe a Mechagodzilla 4?!

[Living Corpse]

Who brought this thing back? Anyways no. Why continue a series that was mdeicore at best and rushed to try and repair damage caused by GINO when we can start with a new reboot that isn't rushed and planned a little better?

[Legion1979]

The series is over.

The answer for the next generation of Godzilla movies is probably not just fattening the budgets for these movies. We had that proven in spades with the Heisei films. It's about skill and execution. Look at other foreign movies that did more with less. The Gamera trilogy all had lower budgets; The Godzilla movies from that time period made more money, but that's more about Godzilla's cash-in status in comparison. No one that's a fan of these sorts of movies (or traditional critics) will argue the Gamera films were worse. Movies like Iris and the much newer Troll Hunter rely heavily on CGI for their special effects, but with their quality it turned out very well. Toho just needs to do Godzilla right. Special effects are just one thing. More important are the scripts and like which make the movie great in the first place. I've called for more originality and special effects updates for a while now, but again it takes skill. Toho's CGI is often lacking.

I don't think it's even that complex. While I don't particularly care for GMK, it shows that good directing/writing/acting etc. can still apply to a giant monster movie. I think the trick is for Toho to realize that giving filmmakers time (money too, but time is more important) to work their craft is better for good moviemaking than flooding the market year after year after year with half-baked crap movies. There was a Godzilla movie every year from 1999 to 2004. General consensus is that one was above average, and at least two were among the worst.

I have railed against quantity over quality as well.

[XxComablack1937xX]

Hell No, The Millennium Series at-least to me was full of below average Godzilla films with the exception of one.

Start something New, make a film every 2 or 3 years.. make it with quality an make it a sequel to the prior film with new monsters.

Not a sequel to the Original every damn film, with the same old monster's every other film.. That grows old real fast.

I'm a big fan of the MIllennium series, however I think it should remain over. It was not a perfect series, but tying it's continuity to the Showa era ( even lightly) was nice. But I think Godzilla needs a reboot, ( hopefully just after the next American re-make..witch will most likley be mediocre at best I'm thinin)

[Goji]

I'm sure that if Toho ever does revive the Godzilla series, they will make their next film a direct sequel to the original GOJIRA

Hopefully the events of GOJIRA '54 will have actually happened, instead of (for instance) the Oxygen Destroyer/Dr Serizawa not even being canon with films like MEGAGUIRUS. That (IMO) was just kind of silly.

I think they need to stop referencing the original and start fresh.

[therealmccoy]

I think they need to stop referencing the original and start fresh.

Referencing the original wasn't the problem, for me anyway. It was the fact that they did it for almost every one. They were all stand alone acting as the next film in the series. It grew tiresome for me. Give me even a small level of continuity and I'll be happy.

[DaddlerTheDalek]

Toho would rather start a new Series.

[FlamingZilla23]

Why continue something that, in large part, wasn't successful?

GMK was the only thing sucessful in this series. The story was okay, the acting i have mixed feelings for, but other then that i prefer it over GFW.

[MechaZillaClone]

The millennium series is over, zip, done, nada, no more!!!!
