All jokes aside though, I'm only really invested in getting King Ghidorah in the films at some point. To me, he just epitomizes the end-all-be-all Godzilla villain.

- King Ghidorah
- Angilas
- Rodan
- Biollante
- Zilla just for a cameo and original sized getting a badass beating with Big G biting his head off easily :D

We've already seen GINO used as a punchline against the genuine article. Do we need to see that again?

I mean, I like his design, and I don't treat him as much as poison as most others do.

But damn, he just can't ever go away.

Too bulky. Especially had he ever appeared in a Toho film. That suit would be immobile

I would like to see Mothra in an American movie, but not as a foe for Godzilla. She should appear in a solo Legendary movie before appearing in a Godzilla sequel. :mrgreen:

Rodan should also appear in a solo Legendary film before appearing in a Godzilla sequel. :D

There are many other Toho monster that should appear in a solo Legendary movie before they appear in a Godzilla sequel. They are too many to name them. :oops:

The only monster that should appear in a Godzilla sequel without a solo Legendary film is Zilla, since he already appear in a solo movie, and it wasn't a good one. :x

I think monsters like Mothra, Rodan, etc would be better off costarring with Godzilla. This doesn't have to be the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Well I think Mothra and Rodan can make for a solid standalone because they have in the past.

But I'd have zero interest in seeing solo outings for Ghidrah, Ebirah, Kamacuras, Kumonga, Hedorah, Gigan, Megalon, Biollante, Battra, SpaceG, Destoroyah....



But sign me up for the solo Gabara film!

I agree; Mothra and Rodan could make solid stand alone films. Mothra more so.

monsters like Ghidorah, Gigan, Hedorah, all work with a monster co-star.

Hell, a Mothra movie could have her fight Battra and some new creature. Who knows. (lol I wouldn't mind them using Bagan here, just to get him out of the way finally and to give the middle finger to his cult.)

Destoroyah is a creature thats very specific to Godzilla's origin (but IDW's comics made it work lol), but Spacegodzilla on the other hand is pretty damn impossible at this point.

I suck at making lists of things, especially "favourites" or any sort, so I'm not sure I can even make it to five. With that in mind, in no particular order (well.....apart from the top two being the ones I mainly want to see):

<------- I've always liked Ebirah, mainly because I've always just thought that lobsters are cool, kinda weird-looking creatures that actually exist in the real world, so the idea of a giant monster one has always appealed to me (that and Ebirah: Horror of the Deep is one of my favourite Showa films).

And yes I know he's technically a giant shrimp, but he's still a lobster to me, dammit! :P

King Ghidorah. Save him for the third movie though (if this were to be a trilogy), really build him up and do him right. I've love to see a huge knock-down, drag-out fight between Godzilla and KG with American blockbuster special effects and proper respect for the characters. Have the second movie be a big, crazy Destroy All Monsters-type affair, then bring it back to just Godzilla and King Ghidorah for the last one, and really play up how screwed humanity is now that he's arrived on Earth, even more so than when Godzilla first appeared (and use him to complete Godzilla's turn from the "villain" of the piece to a 'still not a good guy, but at least kind of an anti-hero who's sometimes the lesser of two evils and can actually help us out now and then when another giant monster shows up').

Rodan. Because Rodan. He's a classic, and I've always loved his "roar". I wants to hear that in one of these movies. :)

I could go with Gigan as well. He'd be a cool one to see an "Americansed" version of. Keep the alien cyborg origin, because again I've always wanted to see an updated version of his flying crystal intro done either from the point of view of a TV news camera man or perhaps just someone filming the crystal on a camcorder or phone, then crash-zooming in when it explodes and he first appears in the sky, a la the original films.

Megalon would be cool too, though they'd probably have to change him into just being a giant cockroach-type creature and leave out the drill arms. I'd have no problem with that. I always thought it'd be cool to see him appear by burrowing underground through a city, then rising up out of the ground inside a tall building, which explodes from the ground up as his rises through it floor by floor, then for it to fall away and have him walk out through the smoke and debris.

Biollante would be another good one, but that's six now and yeah as I said I suck at making lists. So whatever. :P

Biollante
Hedorah
Rodan
Angilas

I think any of them would work well in this Legendary universe.

To fit in with the theme of this new series I'd like to say that:
1.Rodan
2. Anguirus
3.King Ghidorah
4.Dagarah
5. Biollante

The later 2 could be experiments with kaiju that yield horrifying results.
