I'm surprised people are so interesting in the finer details. I'm pretty sure Toho would not have an actual mating scene in their Godzilla movies, guys.

I wonder if the humans would've have to help Godzilla win like in TOMG or if Godzilla would've been able to take them both.

This has been a lost project that has always intrigued me. Redmoon and Erabus sound like they could have been cool monsters and Godzilla vs two kaiju at the same time could have been an excellent fight scene.

Redmoon is actually really cool, but Erabus is just...... eww. But there would never be a mating scene, nor a birth scene or pregnancy. They'd probably have to do the old "5 months later" thing and show the baby.

Maybe Minilla was some mutation inside a Kamacarus' ootheca and that's why they attacked..... Maybe Minilla ISN'T the Son of Godzilla! He's some weird Kamacari that Godzilla felt bad for!

..... Nope, the other guys would never accept that..........

I would want some, but not all. I think that Godzilla vs Batman would be THE WORST G movie of all time. Seriously? Adam West with bat-shark repellent vs Godzilla? Really!?! All the others sound good, though

For the craziness factor, I'd watch that for a dollar or a few. If we got King Kong, why not the caped crusader?

I also wonder how it would have ended. The only reasonable option seems to be that Godzilla kills Redmoon and Erabus, but that would have been way too dark for this period of the Showa era.

But you forgot that Godzilla supposedly killed Kumonga at the end of Son of Godzilla and killed two Kamacuri. But I think that either ending could happen.

I disagree. Godzilla vs. Hedorah was pretty disturbing when we look back at it, and it was made a year before this concept's introduction.

To anyone who wants to watch Daigoro vs. Goliath, it's here.

Looks like an intriguing idea for a Godzilla film, although I'm not a fan of the show-up-to-fight-the-monster approach, which took away from G vs. M and ToMG.

That was the first time I have seen that movie..... and it was a mixed bag. Goliath would be a good Redmoon, Daigoro would be perfect for his death, but now I hate Erabus even more. She. Is. CREEPY!!! The hair! The squeaking!! GAH!!!!! I can't stand it! I bet children were horrified of that... thing!

My favorite of the lost projects, despite me thinking the Showa films kinda hit a point where they overused the "....from SPACE!" idea a little bit.

Those two monsters in the upper right that Godzilla are hiding behind look really silly.

Try Toho Kingdom's Cutting Room. There's some info on this, as well as the rest of most of the unused movie ideas.

Don't take this sarcastically, there is actually a lot of info compared to all other Kaiju-related websites

If it would be on its own, I think it would be a flop. I'm guessing they wanted Godzilla in there for a better chance of getting a better attendance number, but it's just weird to me.....

Well considering that's not the first time Toho would've just shoved Godzilla in a movie just for better numbers (I'm looking at you Battle for Earth), it wouldn't surprise me if the movie was made, that was the case.
