Gamera Rebirth (NEW GAMERA 2023)

[shadowgigan]

Pretty sure I’ve seen the newspaper floating around. Nothing on the figure though.

[Cryptid_Liker]

Honestly, I'm hoping they don't reuse the Heisei origin for Gamera.

Same, I hope they can come up with something original.

[Maverick Centigrade]

I think a prehuman civilization origin for Gamera is what works best for him considering how fantastical he is compared to Godzilla.

[LegendZilla]

^What are you thinking for an origin for Gamera? Why not tie him in with the legendary Shishin beasts? Either that, or make him hail from another dimension.

[Voyager]

I don’t think that’s who Gamera at heart is. He’s an ancient beast from the distant past just as much Godzilla I’d a product of the atomic age.

That’s what he was in the Showa.

[Voyager]

Yes. He was never interdimensional or an ancient spirit.

[LegendZilla]

Yes. He was never interdimensional or an ancient spirit.

Who says he can't be?

[CamtheGodzillafan]

Yes. He was never interdimensional or an ancient spirit.

Who says he can't be?

More than likely the ones making the series.

Most of us are used to having Godzilla having a myriad of origins, so why can't Gamera too?

I said more than likely.

[edgaguirus]

We'll just have to see what they come up with.

[tbeasley]

Not trying to demean or belittle tbeasly here, but now a lot of statements like these, just from a couple of days ago, are making me chuckle:

16 years since his last movie Kadokawa basically goes to companies with a sign saying, 'will license Gamera for food.'

Coincidence?!

I now summon Daimaijin, Guilala and Gappa!!

[darthzilla99]

I just wanted to say that I'm ecstatic that I was wrong. I predicted on the general thread a few years ago that a Gamera film will never be made again. Boy does it feel awesome to have been proven wrong.

[daveblackeye15]

Well it's not a film...is it? If it isn't then you're correct but I thought it was a series.
Oh please don't be like Godzilla Polygon trilogy. I think they can do something weird with Gamera...after he's had a good run of several years being back. I think after a long time something good but basic is for the best.

Is it possible for even Guilala or Daimajin to be brought back?

Semantics really. The intent was that I thought there wasn't going to be any new material, movies, shows, ect.... of Gamera.

[LSD Jellyfish]

Daimajin technically already came back, as did the Yokai series, just last year. But I don’t think it was super good, or anything to write home about. Gululia has a funky design, but really minus a few neat destruction sequences is overall mediocre.

Gamera was the big one to come back.

[Major sssspielberg!]

Guilala is an icon, LSD. Please don't get it twisted.
