I always imagined a Godzilla movie done in the style of Gamera: Guardian of the Universe - a fun throwback to the older monster movies of the 1960s featuring the best in Hollywood special effects, a strong cast, an orchestral musical score, and Godzilla going at it with a swarm of monsters led by a gigantic super monster to equal Godzilla. The story would be a nice blend of science-fiction and the supernatural.
- The main human protagonist would probably be female in order to bring in a portion of the female audience. The male audience would probably already be attracted by the explosions, monster battles, and special effects.
- Also, instead of focusing on a group (like Honda's Godzilla or Mothra vs. Godzilla or Fukuda's [i]Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster) the story would focus on a single protagonist (GMK) with a story that requires her to develop as a character.
- Godzilla's opponent(s) would be the Fire Rodan, with an army of smaller Rodans to act as the "swarm" in question. That would allow for more monster battles while not distracting from Godzilla or his main opponent. Fire Rodan, with the energy attack, would allow for more opportunities to showcase the SPFX.
