75 Godzilla vs 99 Godzilla?

[TokyoVigilante]

Take it this way. There is no place that says the 1999 Godzilla is Minilla, but there is also no place that says he isn't.

Because it doesn't need to be said. It's obvious that the 1999 Godzilla isn't Minya, otherwise Minya wouldn't be there.

Where did the first Minya come from? Exactly.

Minya hatched from an egg that was uncovered on Solgell Island.

You remember how Godzilla had the hots for Daiyo in the previous movie right?

Everybody is entitled to their own personal canon.

That's nice that you have your personal canon but personal canons don't make them true. I guess Gigan is really a Dinosaur before he was turn into a cyborg because it's my personal canon and there's no place that says he isn't ? Sorry but I'm stick of personal cannons. It's like on Daizex (now Kanzenshuu) with people saying "Well no place saying Dr. Slump is canon to Dragon Ball or that the anime is canon!".

...An egg. From Son Of Godzilla.

I really don't see what that has to do with anything.

If Godzilla '99 was Minya, wouldn't they have just called him Minya? This isn't Pokémon; when characters evolve in the Tohoverse they hold on to their original names (except for Megaguirus).

I may be wrong, but I do not think Minilla was ever referred to by name in ''SOG''. Only in ''DAM''.

Who cares? It doesn't matter if they called him Minya in Son Of Godzilla or not, because this is Destroy All Monsters that we're referring to.

Tamura has a point. If the Godzilla in DAM was Minya, they would just call him Minya.

[Megalon-5]

I only really recall Minya being called "The Son of Godzilla" in DAM (I've only seen the Frontier dub so I have no clue about the other English versions) and he was called Minya in Godzilla's Revenge.

Doesn't matter though if they don't call him Minya in DAM, it's still the same character.

The Japanese version called him Minilla.

[Tamura]

Japanese promotional materials and the trailer to SON OF GODZILLA called him ミニラ (Minira), aka Minya/Minilla.

[MaxRebo320]

What if ''Son of Godzilla'' takes place in the 90's or 80's, and the "real" Godzilla dies at the end? So Minilla would grow from their. And don't ask where the Minilla in ''DAM'' came from. I don't know. Just because we didn't see it depicted on film, doesn't mean it never happened. (In my cray mind at least.)

[Megalon-5]

I really don't think it happened in the 80's-90's, I doubt Toho was thinking that at the time. Plus Godzilla dying from a snowstorm? He was stuck in an iceberg for 7 years, he can handle some snow.

Plus, Manda could be Ghidorah's long lost father. They're both dragons. Just because we don't see it happen doesn't mean it's not true.

[GotengoXGodzilla]

What if ''Son of Godzilla'' takes place in the 90's or 80's, and the "real" Godzilla dies at the end?

...No. Son Of Godzilla takes place in 1967. The year the film was made. All Showa films take place the year they were made (except for Destory All Monsters).

And don't ask where the Minilla in ''DAM'' came from. I don't know.

Then your entire "theory" of the '99 Godzilla being Minya makes even less sense.

[MaxRebo320]

I give up. Take it away everyone else....

[Legion1979]

I give up.

THANK YOU

Wow, what a bizarre thread.

[Goji]

Rats. This shit was starting to get really funny too!

[RedZillaKing]

Godzilla and Minya aren't names, they're ranks. You see, after Shodai Goji died in '54 a second Godzilla (who was then only Minya rank) transformed into the Godzilla we all saw fighting Anguirus. In 1967, a new Minya was hatched. Godzilla liked the kid's "moxie" so he decided that he could have the honor of being his toadie. Somewhere between '67 and '99 (75 according to the canon I've decided to force down your throats) that Godzilla retired, and the '67 Minya was promoted to Godzilla rank. Sometime before '99 another Minya was drafted so that the current Godzilla would have a subordinate to kick around. After the strenuous battle with the latest Ghidorah at the end of the millennium Godzilla ranked creature #3 retired to a sugar plantation in Hawaii and the '99 Minya was promoted/transformed into..... MireGoji. You're welcome.

I guess godzillasaurs are like Sith. Rule of 2, and what have you.

You can smell the condescension in this thread. Can people explain things around here without acting that way?

[MaxRebo320]

All in favor of closing this thread.....

You seem surprised, though I can't imagine why.

@Tyler- Just having some fun. So lighten the skreeonk up!
