Adult Mothra (while also keeping the Mothra Larva), Ebirah, Maguma, Gaira, Sanda, Kamacuras, and the Devilfish. Maybe even throw in a giant Matango for the hell of it. Beef up Baragon, Varan, and Manda's roles, too. Make the final fight against King Ghidorah absolutely nuts.

Having Ebirah and Gaira attacking ships would have added some variety to the invasion. All you see is monsters attacking on the ground. Ocean going targets would make it more interesting.

Basically the land, air, and sea attacks would give the feeling that no where is safe.

Maybe have a tense scene where Ebirah and/or Gaira attack a submarine, along the lines of the scene in King Kong vs. Godzilla.

Gigan. you'd never think it, but Ghidorah was so horribly overmatched by the end of that battle that somebody should've come in to lend a hand.

I already suggested Dogora and Showa Moguera as a part of the space roster who team up with Ghidorah in the final battle. Besides, I think this thread includes all monsters who appeared before this film in terms of the year released, not timeline, though I could be wrong since DaM takes place in 1999

On a side note, hory shet, three is back!

Next time you ever say something remotely negative I'll quote you.
Saying you don't like something or are annoyed by it isn't a waste of time, it's stating your opinion and thoughts.

I give you premission to do so but I'm not going into a topic I don't care for to tell people I don't care for it.

There's a difference between sharing your opinion about sometime you don't like and coming into an entire topic you don't like.

I wish Fire Dragon/Burning Monster would have been an actual new kaiju.

Okay that's something I actually agree with. It's kind of underwhelming and weird how it arrives after the big climax and is said to be a monster, only to be a UFO.

well, if i couldn't add any villain as they had not been created, i'd check off say...Gorosaurus and maybe Angirus and have them be evil in addition to Ghidorah. anything to make that ending stomp feel less underwhelming.

Just have Ghidorah act more like Ghidorah. I feel had Toho had a larger budget Ghidorah would have took on all 10 monsters before being over whelmed.

I agree.

Honestly, I think it would've been nice if Ghidorah outright killed a few of the other monsters with the remaining ones just barely being able to defeat him. Ghidorah should never be some random monster that gets killed off easily.

having Ghidorah act like Ghidorah is what they did. in its last two appearances, it got beaten by three and two monsters respectively. seven was overkill. when it had Gigan, later at least, the odds were much better for it. they could have thrown a pair of low grade kaiju its way.

^ He means GTTHM Ghidorah, when he was super destructive and the monsters really did had to work together. Basically before Monster Zero turned him into a punching bag.

Me too. I remember when I was little and watched it for the first time, I was so excited to see a new monster after King Ghidorah dies and...it turns out to just be a flaming alien space ship.

At least when I played Super Godzilla and got excited there was a new monster after I killed Mecha-King Ghidorah, it lived up to the hype instead of being "oh, it's just a ufo."
