Monster Discussion #10: Maguma

[JVM]

Why is Maguma so popular all of a sudden? I dont have a problem with it but when did that all start?

It started a little while ago technically, but only really got to TK about August when Lamango was unbanned. It was sort of an in-joke among him that spread around. Of course everyone thinks Maguma's cool because he's a fairly unused creation, but it's Lamango who began the MAGUMA IS THE BEST idea.

Actully he came up with it because i said Baragon could beat Maguma if only i had known.

No way dude, he was doing it in AIM chats long before you were around.

[Dynomy84]

Nope Maguma wins, end of story, and Mike it wasn't because of you

dammit i said OPINIONS!! and i have no idea how'd it happen

[GodzillaDude]

Guys let's just face it Maguma isn't anything special what so ever.

[Tyler]

Any Toho monster would take one look at Cthulhu and go insane like Kenji Sahara in Rodan.

[alienhulk2099]

^No they wouldn't 'cause Cthulhu is only scary if you're a human from the 20s.

[Lionblaze]

well baragon actually could beat maguma and im being as serious as possible. but its opinions kids

I think any version of Baragon could beat Maguma.

You don't read, so zip it.

I read, so I am not going to zip it.

And people say I'm being mean when I say Varan isn't anything special

Guys, this isn't fantasy matches, please quit whining about Baragon being able to beat Maguma. This thread is about Maguma, not Baragon.

JVM, your not a mod, please quit trying to be. This forum had other people that can do that, not you

Varan is more so then the basically a giant walrus monster Maguma. Varan is more creative anyway.

[edgaguirus]

Maguma is a giant walrus, but you could also say that Varan is a giant flying dragon, a kind of lizard that glides.

[GodzillaDude]

Yeah but he isn't as basic and simple looking as Maguma.

I made the thread. Generally, you're allowed to make rules for a thread if you started it. Per example, if I ask for a thread to be locked, it can be locked.

On that note, will a mod please lock this?

Yeah but he isn't as basic and simple looking as Maguma.

Every monster is rather basic and simple looking.

[GodzillaDude]

Now tell me which monster looks a little less creative then the other?


or

[Lionblaze]

Varan has a much better design than Maguma. I would like to see the overgrown walrus come back in a later film though.
Wasnt he supposed to be in DAM?

[zilla103192]

JVM... why do you always trash the Kaiju universe... you really dont deserve to be labeled a fan...

hell.. you even said in the "stupid things ive done" thread that you regret coming back to the fandom...

seriously... your a fan... or your not

[Tyler]

From what I understand, Tanaka squeezed in Maguma at the last second because he thought adding a kaiju would rake in more $$$. A similar thing happened in Atragon with Manda. The movie would more of less play the same without the inclusion of a monster.

@GodzillaDude: Creative creshmative. Creativity =/= Potential.

King Kong is just a giant skreeonk gorilla. So why is HE a bigger icon than any of Toho's monsters?

And for skreeonk's sake, I never said Maguma was more creative than Varan - just that Varan isn't special. So quit trying to make SUCH a case Varan is SO superior to Maguma.

@zilla: I'm a fan of Godzilla and many of his films. Not a fan of his minor one-off co-stars who Toho gives not a shit about anyway, nor of his later film outings. But I love the Showa series and Toho's Big Seven, and yes, a few others.
