It's likely "unusual and dangerous creatures" won't be lesser known Toho monsters but if future installments are still in the works, maybe some fan favorites, like Gigan or Destoroyah, could face Godzilla.
 
I don't know whether to laugh or cringe.

Plot details are being kept under wraps. All we know at this time is that the new Godzilla movie is going to be directed by Takashi Yamazaki. Interestingly, one of Yamazaki’s previous credits is the 2007 film Always: Sunset on Third Street 2, which features a Godzilla cameo in a fantasy sequence. Yamazaki directed a trilogy of Always: Sunset on Third Street films, as well as Juvenile, Returner, Ballad, Space Battleship Yamato, Friends: Naki on the Monster Island, The Fighter Pilot, Stand by Me Doraemon, Stand by Me Doraemon 2 (with Ryuichi Yagi), Parasyte: Part 1 and 2, Fueled: The Man They Called ‘Pirate’, Destiny: The Tale of Kamakura, The Great War of Archimedes, Dragon Quest: Your Story, Lupin III: The First, and Ghost Book Obakezukan.

The new Godzilla movie will be Toho’s 33rd film in the franchise. The most recently entries were the 2016 live-action film Shin Godzilla and a trilogy of animated features; Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters, Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle, and Godzilla: The Planet Eater.

Man, there's like a whole world to explore with Junior. I'd be down for more like that to see a full-blown "savior of Japan" side that's not kiddified.

By that logic we would end-up with Zilla who was pure DEX vs. normal Godzilla who is a STR END build. I guess the only time the Big G has ever been agile and wasn't slow and thick was this scene:

Apart from the first movie early Showa Godzilla was pretty quick and agile looking

But the Godzilla scenes in these early films were shot at double speed then the footage was slowed down. The original movie slowed the footage way way down, on occasion to 3 times slower than normal speed, and as soon as the second movie it was slowed down much much less. Sometimes the final cut was slowed down not even to normal, a little faster than that. Fighting Anguirus on the deserted island and in Osaka in Godzilla Raids Again, and parts of the final fight against Kong on the slopes of Mt. Fuji really show this
 
Gamera anime coming to Netflix. Will it mog Netflix Godzilla as hard as the 90s trilogy mogged the Heisei Godzillas (don't shoot the messenger)? Time will tell.

Not much to see, but here you go:


I have been working my way through the recent bluray releases of the Gamera series as of late. I hadn't seen most of the Showa series even in an English dub, and it's been a delight. Other than the godawful and enraging Gamera: Super Monster, they hold their own against the kid-friendly Godzilla movies. All in all, he's got a pretty good track record, an achievement all the more impressive given that Gamera is one of millions of adults living with autism.

Gamera has no monster peers like Anguirus or Mothra. His adult allies are more like associates than friends. He only really socializes with children, who he probably finds easier to relate to. The poor guy is always going it alone, and the bullshit never ends: he gets cut open, impaled, infected with alien parasites, etc. Even the OP Heisei version is dealing nonstop with a bunch of crap he never signed on for and has no training to deal with. But deal with it he does. No monster ever got an unanswered W over Gamera.
