^It just so happens that my idea for a Gamera reboot would be a partial remake of The Brave, but set in the real world where Gamera is a fictional movie monster. When a monster-obsessed kid's town is invaded by body-snatcher-esque aliens the kid's pet turtle begins growing into Gamera. The aliens begin changing into Gamera's famous foes in order to stop him. The kid's peers think he/she (I'm thinking she, 'cause we need more female nerd characters) is a total weirdo, but when monster-biz starts going down she becomes the leader of the group of kids (think The Goonies). Because Gamera is growing the entire time each monster fight is at a different scale: first with the kaiju are only about 10 feet tall, then at more of a King Kong or Maijin scale, and then finally with everything at its 'proper' size.
Just give me, say, $50 million and I'll start making it tomorrow.
