They're on the streaming platform, but we still haven't heard about a physical media release, if they're planning on doing it

A good thing too 'cause that's hella boring.

As long as it's still gold, had three heads, no arms, and wings, I don't see any reason why they should hue so close to the classic design. Use that money you got to make Ghidorah scary as gently caress.

In fact, something like this concept art from Godzilla: Final Wars

Exploration is ill-advised.
I'm still pretty sure given the naturalistic approach they'll have Ghidorah as conjoined triplets.

I couldn't say, I can't find any reference for the illustrator. I just saw it on Toho Kingdom years ago and thought, "Man, that'd own."

It is by Yoji Shinkawa. It's pretty awesome honestly though I do have a preference for the bulkier Godzilla designs - I'm sure that's a big part of why I loved the Legendary one so much.

I feel like if you make Godzilla's profile too thin or his limbs too lanky you'd have to work even harder on getting his movement and anatomy down in such a way that he doesn't come off as too humanoid like a generic lizard man or oni/ogre kind of monster. Or maybe go more out there and have him be thin but give him even bigger back plates and a huge tail or something. Honestly I'd love to see an attempt at it.

I feel like the EVA Godzilla I posted up there would maybe be a good concept for a Legendary MechaG, just an anti-Godzilla device.

I don't think MechaG would work with Legendary Godzilla. To me, one of the most distinctive things about Legendary's take on Godzilla is that the military quickly gives up trying to fight him at all. He is completely and utterly beyond humanity's capacity to harm, so the military barely tries.

To fight monsters we created monsters of our own.

Pacific rim 3 opens with John boyega going through a portal to fight the Kaiju in their own dimension but gets stuck in the legendary Goji franchise to fight much more interesting Kaiju.

I enjoyed the depiction of Monarch in Skull Island as a joke of an agency scrounging for funds by any means necessary.

Yeah, Godzilla gave them their start and a huge goddamn boost, but by the 70s they were flagging and an utter joke of a thing.


And then Skull Island put them back in business
