Practical Effects have a lot to them. But I do think that movies do have it have a level of realism to keep them from laughing it off. This can be achieved with practical effects of course, I love the blend of Tokusatsu and real life footage in the Hesei Gamera Series, but I do love the fluidity of the CGI used in KOTM, G 14, and GvK. It makes godzilla seem more alive.
There's definitely a time and place for CG. But it doesn't need to be every movie ever for every single effects shot ever composed. I love the Tarantino and Nolan are at least two western filmmakers that use very little to zero CG in their films. It really helps break up the different look of special effects.
Interesting all those are from GvK. I don’t see KoTM or G 14.
Anyway I don’t personally have a problem with CGI, but I do want to see more practical effects
sonictiger,
Very easily after those images. It's boring. It looks like every other CGI feature we see every weekend in whatever new blockbuster is being released. What's so exciting and new about something that's been used as a catch-all for thousands of movies in the last 20+ years? It just looks like every other movie out there.
Gman, how could anyone say CGI is boring?
Critics have no taste.
Lemme change some minds with some amazing CGI

bowser reminds me more of anguirus than godzilla.
(i also really want these)
That's good
I think CG is great with animated projects
There go my dreams of making CG animation.
I kid, I kid. Tokusatsu is still great.
google aint givin me straight answers
it depends on really if the venom is effective to Indo, i guess
Kattozilla,
Final Wars was still more tokusatsu than CG, but I don't mind it being implemented as a tool now and then. It's when it becomes a catch-all technique that it feels overused and, by extension, boring.
What about a blend kind of like Final Wars Did
SarcasticGoji,
Indeed. Who cares if it's not very popular. Most of my life Godzilla hasn't been very popular in the west, yet as tokusatsu it still sold out like hotcakes in Japan. Nowdays tokusatsu lives on more as a novelty and an artistic expression. Popularity isn't the point with it. Artistic integrity is.
Personally, I'd rather Godzilla go back to being a niche franchise that celebrates that aspect of Japanese culture, than just do what everyone else does. If it's not your thing? Then it doesn't have to be. There's five CG Godzilla titles for you in the meantime--One edging a little closer to tokusatsu than others, but CG nonetheless.
what does google say?
never saw CC but as much as i love Indo...maybe Scorpio? Because they have venom spines? I dunno
Tokusatsu is pretty nifty
Who do you think would win
7amey,
People still pay out the ears for Ultraman, Super Sentai and Kamen Rider. Besides, I don't really care how popular it is. Tokusatsu is more unique, special and artist than the fast-food, mainstream-ism of CG. Many filmmakers in Japan want to preserve tokusatsu for the artform, look and style. It's not about making something look realistic, it's about making it look unique unto itself. It's one of the reasons I got in to Godzilla and tokusatsu and it just feels more appropriate.
oh. Nevermind then.
Perhaps the original concepts were budget busters? Seems odd what they scrapped.
Probably thought they were getting a little to far from the essential ideas..... mainly....Xenos and more Xenos!
I like those ideas.....but, I'm wondering how they will link the prequels with the sequels? Seems further from the truth. They already had to shoehorn the xeno into A:C just to make it a 'Alien' movie.
If they can directly tie A:C 2 to anyone of the sequels I'd be happy.
The “new look” in the as is the OG design. And No it’s not troubling, SP was started production at the same time as the Three godzilla anime films
Yes I know but promoting a newer look for their stuff that isn't SP is troubling
How about GIGAZILLA
CHAPTER 9
BY THE WAY, WHENEVER I USE THE SPECIES NAME IT’S NOT THE SAME ONE FROM KOTM AND WHEN I DO, IT IS.
WRITTEN BY XENOTARIS AND DIE-HARD SPINO FAN
King Ghidora made a chorus of a roar with his three heads. Xilla’s eyes were fixed on Ghidora, all of her memories coming back.
“Those were the enemies that the elders talked about!” Xilla yelled over the screaming.
“Ok!”
After Ghidora was done, Dagon was glaring at him. He was furious. He roared his alpha roar, commanding all of the titans to attack Ghidora. Methuselah turned toward Dagon, and back to Ghidora. Meanwhile, Zilla and Xilla split up to regroup somewhere else. But Zilla Jr. stayed, with his eyes locked on Ghidora. He was tiny compared to the other titans, but his DNA was different from his parents’. He knew this was his enemy. The one his ancestors had been fighting for centuries. He focused on Ghidora and something seemed wrong. While the titans were wondering on who to attack, Ghidora seemed to be distracted about something. He looked like he was talking amongst himselves. Then, Zilla Jr. charged up his atomic breath and fired at Ghidora’s center head. Ghidora seemed a little over annoyed but he noticed Zilla Jr. His eyes went wide, then filled with rage. Zilla Jr. aimed for his right eye and pierced through it, incapacitating his middle head. Then, Ghidora shot the head out of his neck and started regrowing it back. After he was finished, Ghidora charged up his gravity beams and readied to shoot it at Zilla Jr. The other titans were watching in awe as this 20 ton creature defied a 140,000 ton beast. Zilla Jr. squinted in defiance as Ghidora shot his beams at him.
As the beams got closer and closer, Zilla Jr. looked to the sides and saw his mother and father lunging out of the trees into the clearing in which Zilla Jr. stood. He looked back up at the still-moving bolts of lighting… and ducked down. All three beams got absorbed by Zilla Jr.’s center dorsal plate and they started glowing yellow. Ghidora persisted with the beams. The kinetic energy of them pushed Zilla Jr. into the ground, but he stayed on his feet. After Ghidora was worn out, Zilla Jr. stood up with bolts of yellow lighting coming from his dorsal plates. He charged up his atomic breath with the most energy he had ever handled in his life before. Ghidora looked confused, then frightened because he had seen this before. Being able to absorb Ghidora’s species’ gravity beams was evolutionary. They had used this tactic in the war against them. Zilla Jr. ejected the beam out of his mouth. The beam was a solid green beam with bolts of yellow lighting circling it. Ghidora recoiled back instantly when the beam hit him. The lighting split apart and went around his body, while the beam started digging, an albeit small crater. Ghidora was weak against this because it was specially evolved to hurt his species.
After Zilla Jr. was finished, he felt like he was about to faint. He quickly hobbled over to the tree line and collapsed in front of Zilla. Xilla rushed in from behind him. As Ghidora was recovering from the beam, Dagon roared one last time, demanding that all titans attack Ghidora. Titanus Jinshin-Mushi looked at Dagon and his comrades and thought she could put her eggs in them. She allied with Ghidora. Methuselah was young, and didn’t know who to choose. But then, a flapping noise came from behind Dagon. A bright glow blinded Ghidora and Dagon refused to see what the light was, because he already knew. A Titanus Mosura was shining her god rays.
She swooped up and landed on Dagon’s shoulder, while doing her signature screech. Zilla carried Zilla Jr. on his back with the help of Xilla and they went to the mountain in which they came from.
Methuselah allied with Dagon and The Titanus Rodan and Titanus Behemoth allied with Ghidora. The Titanus Scylla allied with Dagon. Methuselah was the first to start. He charged forward and tried to tackle the Titans Rodan but it did its thunderclap and left Methuselah sliding and trying to clear his vision. The Titanus Jinshin-Mushi analyzed Methuselah’s mountain’s frequency. If she could figure it out, she could break the mountain. She figured it out and blasted her sonic roar at Methuselah. He roared in agony as the mountain exploded. Fortunately, the mountain had not been on him long enough that it was a part of him. But it had been enough a part of him to incapacitate him for now.
The Titanus Scylla rushed towards the flaming pterosaur. Two of her long legs pinned it to the ground. She pressed harder but the Titanus Rodan fired a fire beam at her. The Titanus Scylla retreated immediately, screeching in agony from her burns to the face. Dagon charged up his atomic breath and fired it at the Titanus Rodan. He hit the winged creature in the chest and knocked him back so far and so hard that he smashed through a mountain. Ghidora then fired his three gravity beams at the three Titanus Gojiras. The two flanking Dagon were launched back and Dagon was pushed back but stayed on his feet. Methuselah woke up and knew he could not take on the Titanus Behemoth without the added 20,000 tons from his mountain, so he looked at the Titanus Rodan. He was getting up and shaking rock off of him. Methuselah charged and rammed the fire demon in the chest. As he was trying to re-orient himself, Methuselah reared up on his hind legs and slammed down on the Titanus Rodan’s chest. Lava sprayed everywhere. His rib cage had been caved in. But, when he died, he made an explosion of molten lava that hit Methuselah in his right eye and burned his entire face. He walked over to a safe area and slammed down.
The Titanus Scylla came back with a nasty-looking scar on her face. The Titanus Mosura was nowhere to be seen. The Titanus Behemoth and the Titanus Scylla were at a standoff. Then, The knuckle-walking mammoth charged forward, with its big tusks pointed forward, and just as it was about to impale the Titanus Scylla, the Titanus Mosura swept in from the side and stabbed her legs into its side and pushed it on its side. It then was about to stab it again while it was on the ground but the MUTO Prime had something to say about that.
She slammed into the flying moth and grounded her. She then helped the Titanus Behemoth up. She then went over to the grounded moth and raised her right leg to crush the invertebrate, but Dagon interfered by ramming the MUTO Prime away. He then stood in front of the Titanus Mosura. The Titanus Jinshin-Mushi slowly stands back up as she quickly turns towards Dagon, she growls at the archosaurian titan. She slams both of her curved claws into the ground, creating a massive EMP. Dagon could feel the EMP disrupting his charged up atomic reserves being redistributed throughout his body. Dagon charges into MUTO Prime but is hit in the back by the Behemoth’s massive tusks. The Titanus Behemoth burrows his sloth-like claws into Dagon’s hide. A roar echoed from the jungle as a ceratosaurus-like Titanus goros stomps his way into their fight, Titanus goros balances himself on his massive tail; freeing his legs to kick the Titanus Behemoth off of the King of the Monsters like a kangaroo. The Titanus Behemoth stumbles over a bit but quickly balances himself from completely tipping over. The Titanus Behemoth howls at the slender dinosaurian titan. Titanus goros balance on his tail while mock kicking the air to taunt the tusked sloth titan before landing its feet firmly back on the ground.
Meanwhile, Ghidora was fending off both of Dagon’s friends and the Titanus Scylla. He shoved the enormous spider back and used both of his side heads and his gravity beams to launch the Titanus Gojiras yet again. Ghidora spread his wings high and mighty, making him look as big as possible. The Titanus Scylla and the two archosaurian titans retreated and walked away.
The MUTO Prime had had enough of his. She ran in from behind the Titanus goros and the Titanus Behemoth ran from the front. The MUTO Prime hit the Titanus goros first from the back and the Titanus Behemoth stabbed his tusks into the chest of the Titanus goros. The MUTO Prime pushed harder and the Titanus Behemoth’s tusks went deeper and deeper. The Titanus goros started to lose strength. The Titanus Behemoth pulled its tusks out of the unconscious, seemingly dead Titanus goros.
Dagon charged toward the Titanus Behemoth and knocked it down. He then charged up his atomic breath and fired it at the knuckle walking mammoth. What used to be a bright blue beam was now a partially transparent light blue flame, but still a devastating weapon. After half a minute of consecutive firing, the flame pierced through the Titanus Behemoth’s side and smashed through its rib cage, killing it immediately.
The MUTO Prime backed away as the Titanus goros stood up. The Titanus Scylla was flanked by Dagon’s allies and the Titanus Mosura climbed up to Dagon’s shoulder. The MUTO Prime reatreated and all that was left was Ghidora.
Ghidora flew over and picked up one of Dagon’s allies and flew all the way up and flung her into the other side of the hollow earth. She crashed down and fell unconscious. Dagon lunged forward after Ghidora landed back down and grabbed his left and right heads in a bundle and tied them together. They both struggled to get untangled. While the middle head was helping get the other heads untangled, Dagon maneuvered behind Ghidora and pulled so hard and fast on his middle head that it cracked one of the vertebrates, paralyzing his head. Dagon then chomped down on the start of the middle head’s neck and ripped it out. He then clamped down on the stump and fired his atomic breath into the stump, which had now returned to its full power. After he was done, Ghidora collapsed on the ground, hanging on for dear life. Just for good measure, Dagon did it to both of the other heads, after untangling them. It was a real test of intelligence for Dagon. After all of the heads were gone, and after Ghidora was a corpse, Dagon went to the surface and dragged him all the way to the place that was farthest from where they battled; the south pole. He dumped Ghidora in an ocean close to the south pole. As he was walking away, Dagon heard a slight bubbling, but he thought it was just the body releasing all of its gas, but in fact it was Ghidora very slowly regenerating, only to be found and released in 2019.
END OF CHAPTER 9
Oh yeah, haha.
yep pretty godzillaie. even before that too, with giga bowser
Toho and WB just need to COEXIST
Kattozilla If you search up "Fury Bowser" you will know why people associate him with Godzilla.
no, YOU ARE a nintendo now. s o r r y.
these look awesome tho. it makes sense for Bowzilla the most, because people associate him with Godzilla for some reason in the first place
Note: On the 2nd paragraph, 2nd sentence, when I said "I've always been a Nintendo" I forgot to write "fan" after "Nintendo".
basically, ig
i havent seen it yet but i do have it
WHY ARE SHARKS ALWAYS EVIL
SHARKS ARE NOT EVIL PEOPLE
I will Start with these from Khang Le in 2014
These seem to be OFFICIAL but i dont think anyone has had any Interview with Khang Le but he is a Professional Concept Artist and has worked on Various Movies. If we assume these are INDEED works for a ALIEN MOVIE then with the Date of 2014 this would imply this is PRIOR to the Dante Harper Drafts.
What we see from these Concepts is that INDEED we see David has Unleashed Hell on the Engineers, and some of these Infected Engineers appear to Mutate into something a bit like the Neomorph.
We then see that some Human Explorers have arrived but they get USED by David to conduct Experiments to Genetically Grow like Egg Sacks that Contain Hybrid Parasites. We then have Various Concepts of what are called Xenomorphs but they do-not look like our Xenomorph, but what these seem to be is Various Ideas/Concepts about WHAT KIND of MONSTER that David would go on to Create.
Not a LOT can be Gauged by these, we see that the Engineers World is more Futuristic and Bio-Mechanical and it does seem that David would Unleash the Pathogen on the Engineers that KILLS some but also MUTATES some into Horrors.
We then see that David has used some Incoming Humans to Conduct Experiments to CREATE his Very Own..... MONSTER.

I doubt that much people would pay to see tokusatsu these days. CG can achieve everything tokusatsu can and do better, according to the director's vision. Also, building a miniature destructible city feels more costly than modeling one on a computer.
You mean Godzilla: Final Wars?
mix of both perhaps?
7amey,
I'd be more interested in another tokusatsu production. We get enough CG cranked out in just about every Hollywood production ever.
