Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
Google says that lobsters can regrow their claws. On the other hand the book “Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah Monster Complete Works” says that Ebirah died after its battle with Godzilla.Legion1979 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 24, 2022 3:59 pmEbirah?SpiderZilla wrote: ↑Sat Sep 24, 2022 12:48 pm HWYFI: Godzilla permanently crippled an opponent but did not kill it?

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
Would be cool but I think I want a specific example. Something like a one armed Kamacuras (or Gamera since he's lost limbs) came to (my) mind. Or maybe Rodan unable to fly because of a hole in his wing.SpiderZilla wrote: ↑Sat Sep 24, 2022 12:48 pm HWYFI: Godzilla permanently crippled an opponent but did not kill it?

When I think of a crippled enemy, I think of one that is unable to move or fight back. Rodan or Mothra have their wings so damaged they can't fly would be the best way to do this.

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
I was thinking more in terms of Godzilla asserting his continued dominance over an opponent by reducing their effectiveness in future battles but not going so far as to make it difficult for them to feed themselves or flee from a fight.edgaguirus wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 12:31 pmWhen I think of a crippled enemy, I think of one that is unable to move or fight back.

HWYFA a Godzilla film from the POV of a prison, where a kaiju fight is in the path of one?

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
I dunno. Viewers can be critical if the kaiju story didn’t intersect with the human story in a Godzilla film. Putting the humans in a prison would only make it harder to make that connection – well, aside from being stepped on.Al Diplodocus wrote: ↑Fri Sep 30, 2022 1:32 pm HWYFA a Godzilla film from the POV of a prison, where a kaiju fight is in the path of one?

HWYFA: the CGI Model for Lizzie from the Rampage movie being recycled or modified for the monsterverse to depict one of the yet unseen Titans like "Typhon" or "Bunyip"?

It'd be interesting to see how it would play out, and how being in an enclosed space would change the action.LegendZilla wrote: ↑Sat Oct 01, 2022 8:08 pm HYWFA a Godzilla film that features Godzilla and other kaiju trapped aboard a space colony(s)?

The story would need to include a kaiju breaching the outer hull otherwise it wouldn’t be realistic for them to foresee those consequences.LegendZilla wrote: ↑Sat Oct 01, 2022 8:08 pm HYWFA a Godzilla film that features Godzilla and other kaiju trapped aboard a space colony(s)?

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
HWYFA :
1. Toho set up an entire Godzilla-themed amusement park? I’m thinking like Disneyland/world but dedicated to Godzilla.
2. Toho brought back the Chouseishin series?
3. A Godzilla anime anthology?
4. They re-visited humans with psychic powers?
5. Time-travel was given a second chance? If so, what time periods should be visited? I’m thinking the Sengoku-era and the Taisho era.

1. I remember a Sally Fourth storyline in which the characters traveled to a kaiju themed park like you suggest. I think it would make plenty of money.LegendZilla wrote: ↑Sat Oct 22, 2022 11:33 pm HWYFA :

2. I haven't watched the series, but it would appeal to Power Ranger fans.
4. I'm for it.
5. I'd like to see how people deal with Godzilla without modern weapons.

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
Godzilla and anime... like, on paper, it sounds like it should be amazing. In practice? None of what we've seen so far has clicked for me much at all. I'm sure it can be done with the right creative team behind it, but I'm starting to feel that live action (or at least realistic, well executed CGI) is the visual medium this genre belongs in.
I'd be all for seeing psychics make a return, though. Maybe another stab at a prophet of doom character, though Ghidorah would ideally not be involved.

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
Inspired by conversation on unpopular opinion thread....HWYF about a movie where Godzilla hears the call of a female Godzilla and makes his way to her, causing some concern to those in his path as he does. However, they both end up facing the same powerful monster, and defeating it together causes an even stronger bond between them?

Added in 1 minute 4 seconds:
I don't love the idea of another female Godzilla like that. But I think GTS did the concept well.

Re: Definitive: “How would you feel about X”
As a one-off, I wouldn't be opposed to a female Godzilla being attempted. My concern, cynical as it is, is that she would be popular and successful. I wouldn't want her to become a major, recurring character and dilute Godzilla's uniqueness or change his traditional roles. There's enough of that going on in the superhero genre.
