I always wondered what a movie version of that one Trendmasters playset. Count me in on that!Living Corpse wrote:Fight in a mecha's underground hanger bay.
Maybe Godzilla attacking a human/alien anti-kaiju base and walking over the elevator when it lowers him either due to a malfunction or intentionally and he fights their mecha and super weapon down there.

Anyway, Godzilla heading over to Europe and Australia is long overdue and could introduce some nice destruction scenes with London, Moscow, Berlin and Sydney. Africa would also be cool.
Also, a kaiju goes to Dubai, and then tears down the Burj Khalifla, because why not?
That toy and Gundam Wing having fights in hanger bays is where I got the idea and asked "why haven't we seen this movies and games? Heck even the Pipeworks games let you fight on and in an alien mothership."Gigantis wrote:I always wondered what a movie version of that one Trendmasters playset.

Yeah, for a scene played for laughs which isn't even funny now. Give us a real destruction scene down under!LegendZilla wrote:

Assuming this isn't a rhetorical question, I think we don't see snow in kaiju movies because of when they're traditionally filmed just as much as where they're usually set. If you want kaiju in snowy Japan, it has to be in Hokkaido or along the Sea of Japan coast, and for some reason those regions aren't typically seen in kaiju movies. We did get snow in Sapporo in Gamera 2 but that was because they got to shoot the movie over winter. Most kaiju films historically have been shot in the summer.Vakanai wrote:Japan in the winter time. Why is it that whenever there's a kaiju fight in the snow it's always like in Antarctica? A snowy scene in the Japanese countryside or city would be great.
I mean, it's all a stage, doesn't seem like it'd be more difficult than the Antarctic or Artic scenes.Terasawa wrote:Assuming this isn't a rhetorical question, I think we don't see snow in kaiju movies because of when they're traditionally filmed just as much as where they're usually set.

It might also have been difficult in the past to portray snowfall convincingly on the kaiju scale, something that CGI can help with today. I agree that a snowy battleground would be a cool sight though.
In what regard: depicting a snowy location or falling snow? For the former you still need exterior shots that match your SFX footage, a luxury they don't necessarily have when they film their movies in July and August. For the latter, you can only miniaturize snow so much (like water), so all I'm proposing is that they might have found it difficult to convincingly portray snowfall against enormous monsters.Vakanai wrote:I mean, it's all a stage, doesn't seem like it'd be more difficult than the Antarctic or Artic scenes.Terasawa wrote:Assuming this isn't a rhetorical question, I think we don't see snow in kaiju movies because of when they're traditionally filmed just as much as where they're usually set.

Depicting a snowy location. I wasn't taking exterior shots in account, just thinking purely stage/sets. Yeah, that makes sense.Terasawa wrote:In what regard: depicting a snowy location or falling snow?

I mean with CGI it's not hard to fake snow. And even with global warming, and with the fact this thread is about possible location from all over the world, there's still a lot of places that get it.Vakanai wrote:
Of course with climate change they might not have long for such an option.
I second this. Godzilla is a sea monster. Show more of it. Or at least other sea monsters fighting each other. Maybe have big floating man made island cities.Vakanai wrote:More underwater fights. With today's technology it could look very amazing.
A fight between Baragon and a Skullcrawler would be nice.Vakanai wrote:Underground. A Lost World/Center of the World or some massive cave or tunneled out area.
Godzilla vs Ebirah vs Titanosuarus vs that new mosasaur kaiju! Be epic. Be totally epic.Living Corpse wrote:I second this. Godzilla is a sea monster. Show more of it.
