Re: Reshape the Godzilla Showa Era to your preference
Redesign Minilla and Hedorah, never liked those designs. Have Anguirus appear and help in GTTHM and DAM. Tighter pace and scripting in Godzilla's Revenge. See the Mothra caterpillars turned into their adult selves before the series ended. Have one film explain all the different alien species in the franchise and if they even know of each other. Other than that...I'm pretty happy with what we got.
I unapologetically, wholeheartedly, and without a doubt hate Godzilla vs Kong.

I don't even understand why some people even watch the Showa films if they feel like something should be changed about literally every one of them.

Re: Reshape the Godzilla Showa Era to your preference
I think a thread like this (encompassing a full era) encourages people to make more changes than they might otherwise be inclined to make. You start out writing about changing two things, then realize you skipped the movie in the middle and it makes you think well, what would you do to make that one better?Legion1979 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 9:25 am I don't even understand why some people even watch the Showa films if they feel like something should be changed about literally every one of them.
If I really took the question seriously, I'd look like I was hacking up everyone of these, but I don't know that I'd really want to change anything.
I used to be a lot more optimistic and outgoing, believe it or not. I used to actually be passionate about this stuff.

Re: Reshape the Godzilla Showa Era to your preference
Even if they weren't not all of them need changes. Legion is saying why watch the Showa films if you think all 15 need major changes.MVHutch wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2024 8:46 pmBecause they're not perfect?Legion1979 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 9:25 am I don't even understand why some people even watch the Showa films if they feel like something should be changed about literally every one of them.

Re: Reshape the Godzilla Showa Era to your preference
Exactly. He clearly doesn't like these movies. To say all of them should be changed somehow shows a strong level of dislike. Of course, most of his changes are surface level nonsense like adding or removing monsters.miguelnuva wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2024 5:58 pmEven if they weren't not all of them need changes.

I would have fleshed out Akira Kubo's character in Destroy All Monsters but that's about it, maybe added a co-star to play off him but maybe that'd been too Monster Zero-like.

Re: Reshape the Godzilla Showa Era to your preference
Destroy All Monsters written by Sekizawa would have been interesting. But I like that Kimura gives it a different feel, or else, like you said, it would have felt a lot like Monster Zero.
