You Have to Give Voices to the Monsters
Posted: Mon Aug 13, 2012 5:01 am(Note: sorry if this thread's been done before. To be fair, I didn't find anything like it here within the past 2 years.)
In a world of hypothetical occurrences, Toho decides to make a new Godzilla feature, and has brought you to their offices for reasons you didn't guess from the topic title. The producer sits across from you, looking very grave, and some other executives are sitting around there too. The tension builds until, finally, he tells you why you've been brought here:
"We've decided that kids today don't like monsters that don't talk. We have appointed you, the biggest kaiju nerd we've ever stalked online, to help us. You can choose all the monsters you want, and at any time in the process, but you have to cast voice actors and/or seiyuu for each one."
You move to shoot yourself in the head, but realize you left your portable maser at home. It looks like you're stuck here until you choose some monsters for the new project and assign voice actors to them. Eventually, though, reason and calm prevail. The world didn't end in 1972, now, did it?

So yeah. I spent way too much time on that, just for a thread to shoot the breeze about giving voices to kaiju. I won't attempt to explain my choices yet, since it's late and I'll probably reconsider them later anyway, but I'll see what I can do.

MechaGodzilla '74 - Brian Drummond (Vegeta, )
...yeah, I'll come back to this when it's not 3 AM.
