Which of these unmade Godzilla movies do you wish were made?
Batman Vs. Godzilla, Frankenstein Vs. Godzilla, and Godzilla vs. Ghost Godzilla are my choices.
Frankenstein vs. Godzilla. I would have loved to have seen that. PS, I'm am glad you made this video to spotlight these unmade films. people need to know about all of this.
You left out some films. Maybe you should do a part two.
I'm gonna have to go with the Godzilla meets Jesus concept...it reminds me of the IDW comic series GODZILLA IN HELL, which was far more interesting than you might expect.
Always had a soft spot for Bride of Godzilla (1956), Tokyo SOS: Godzilla's Suicide Strategy (1976), Godzilla vs. the Asuka Fortress (1979-1985), and Godzilla vs Cthulhu (1994-1995).
I've never before heard of Batman meets Godzilla but it just jumped to shared #1 spot on my "movies I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really wish were made" list with Jodorowsky's Dune.
Jodorowsky's Dune would also go hand in hand with God's Godzilla and A Space Godzilla for how they are the trippiest unmade Godzilla movies.
10:33 man. Even Godzilla can’t afford insulin these days.
1:17 Nice use of Shinsuke Nakamura's theme. 👌
Was looking for this comment
Saaame
The entire opening uses the theme. It has the Lee England Jr. Opening that was used for his SmackDown debut and most recently his match for New Year's against the Great Muta.
He’s been doing that for all the Godzilla videos
@@coreylineberry8557 I thought I was going crazy at first because it sounded so familiar
No way in hell "Godzilla vs Cthulhu" was genuinely pitched. I'm in awe.
Batman meets Godzilla sounds like one of the greatest ideas and plots for a movie ever. I want to go to a parallel timeline where that movie was made.
its kinda happeneing now with godzilla vs the justice league... a teaser dropped a week ago i think.
"The aliens, evil Godzilla, and Crazy Jesus then wreak havoc across the world" was a sentence I never expected to hear but will stay with me until death.
Godzilla meeting Frankenstein, Batman and Jesus? Only a great Matt Draper video would get me to know this information!
I had no clue that there was the idea of a Hollow Earth in Bride, who knew it would come back up in the Monsterverse!
I mean, the idea of hollow earth existed for hundreds of years now.....
@@WhatDillionYT I meant in the Godzilla franchise
Man you're really just knocking videos out this year! And with still the same level of Matt Draper quality we all expect.
I always wondered what the Gryphon for the unmade Godzilla 1994 would have actually looked like in real life. Like the concept of a giant, shape-shifting monster would have been crazy to make with practical effects in the 90s, so I can't help but think if they would use CGI for the transformations like the T-1000 or they'd just make them fully CGI creature.
I'm amused by the use of Shinsuke Nakamura's WWE entrance music in the background for the first three and a half minutes or so.
Never thought I’d see the word “cockblocked” in a video about Godzilla.
You know it's gonna be a good day when a new Matt Draper video (especially one focused on kaiju) drops.
Godzilla vs Cthulhu sounds to good to be true, imagine spacegodzilla but smarter, bigger and more powerful.
Biollante is one of the best G villains ever.
The unmade DeBont movie is still something I think could have been incredible.
Babe wake up! A new Matt Draper Godzilla video just dropped!
Need me Bruce Campbell in that Hawaii sequel to 2000
22:11 i dream about how cool this film would have been. the kaiju designs have always looked so cool to me.
Seriously love the early drafts and unused proposals for Godzilla movies. So many wonderfully experimental and creative ideas that could all work as movies today, all locked up in a vault somewhere! At least a handful have been trickling out and shared in full in more recent Japanese books. I can only hope "Godzilla vs. Gamera" will come to pass one day, as well as a movie featuring Bagan.
Not a movie but I do want to see an adaptation of the comic "Godzilla vs the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" as an kick-ass animated feature. Even a fan-animatic of it would sate me especially the final act fight scene between the Megazord, Godzilla and King Ghidorah (no duh, right?).
I remember following 3d to the Max for ages when it was being in "production ", we were so hopwful.
Man that "GOD'S GODZILLA" sounds Absolutely insane Bat-Shit Crazy,,,,,i would've Loved to have that Movie Exist 😃🤘😃🤘
As a huge Godzilla fan, and even knowing about all this unmade projects, it’s always a pleasure watch your videos.
I met your channel from your Daredevil comic videos, but boy, we have a lot of tastes in common. What an amazing content, thanks and keep it going! Greetings from México.
Godzilla/Batman would have been fun as a time capsule.
Godzilla vs Jesus just sounds insane. Crazy anyone considered it.
I mean, he is GODzilla, so I guess it kinda fits?
Not really Godzilla vs Jesus, more like Godzilla and Jesus team up to bully humanity into near extinction.
@@projekttaku1There is a video ( forgot the name of it ) about Shin Goji's multiple forms, and that his 8th form would've led him to become a god-like being.
@@Weirdman20 yeah, seems to me like they cut it off at the most traditional form with the 4th one. But I kinda wanted to see the 5th form with all the little mini godzilla humanoids.
The new logo change messed me up lol. Great video, I can see why none of these were made!
So love how you had the Shinsuke Nakamura wwe theme played in this Godzilla video!!!! As a fan of Both The King Of The Monsters Godzilla and The King Of Strong Style Shinsuke Nakamura this is badass
Literally opening up with the Shinsuke Nakamaura theme. Chef's kiss.
We're still waiting for Godzilla vs Wolfman to come out. They said that they plan on releasing it one day.
Remember what TOHO stole from us...Godzilla vs WOLFMAN!
I'm a fan of Erabus's design. Great Kaiju.
The Shinsuke music in the background got me bumpin HARD while watchin lmao
Fun fact: In the Godzilla youtube channel, there is Bagan, it's back now.
Batman vs Godzilla....very suspicious movie idea, but it would make a good cartoon. Nice video
Can't concentrate on Godzilla with all this amazing Shinsuke Nakamura music in the background lol
You must a Be a Nakumura fan 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Perfect combo
The absolute emotional whiplash hearing “Shin Gojira raids again” was a feeling I wasn’t prepared for today.
Just saw this video in my fee and writing this as it begins BUT I know it's going to be great! Also, looking forward to the teased Gamera video in the possible future. You rule!
It’s interesting how many concepts turn up later, like the hollow earth and Kong binding with a child
Some excellent music choices in here. Gunship and The Midnight? Great stuff. Great video!
Is it weird that I might actually love to watch A Space Godzilla?
It actually sounds really cool, even if it would be super trippy.
Sounds to me like DC should make that Batman versus Godzilla story into a comic. I mean if there adapting things like Batman, 89 and Superman 78, I’m sure tons of people would love to see Adam West’s Batman battle Godzilla.
Man Bagan needs to be in the films one of these days.
“Oh no! They say he’s got to go! Go Go Godzilla!” Except for these projects that never did.
Godzilla vs M sounds cool.
OKAY. I’m gonna need a full blow-by-blow explanation for God’s Godzilla. Do we have the script?
There's not much beyond this translated version of the pitch: www.tohokingdom.com/blog/end-times-gods-godzilla-draft-translation/
@@MattDraper I did a AI visualization of the film not too long ago on my other channel, its not perfect but it may help giving us an idea for how it could have looked. I really do like to wonder how "Jesus" and Godzilla would have looked in the movie.
ua-cam.com/video/L7M8kA4RVrg/v-deo.html
Really cool video. You pretty much hit all the scrapped scripts on the head. Maybe after your Gamera video you can make a unmade Gamera movie video too. Thankfully there is not as much as Godzilla, but there are some really nice ones out there. Phoenix, Wyvern (W), Garasharp, Ice Men and so forth.
Thanks for the video, I loved unproduced media/scripts and canned films.
I’ve been wanting Godzilla vs Cthulhu for a while now, even if it’s just a comic or an episode of Death Battle!
I'd love to see a Gamera Retrospective, from the Campy Showa Era to the Hesei Films that had movies that many consider to be even better then the Heisei Era Godzilla films at the time, to the Singular Millenium film about a Boy and his turtle.
Would be fitting as a new anime series for the big turtle is coming soon.
Just when I thought we had heard the last from you on this subject. Thank you.
I love these "unmade films of" videos, I hope to see one of Predator 👀
I personally wished we had the Anguirus, Baragon, Varan version of GMK, I could see them as like guardian hounds of Earth. Besides, those three Kaiju don't get enough love, especially Baragon and Varan.
Great video! Looking forward to that Gamera retrospective
Are you aware there's a six-episode Gamera anime coming to Netflix this year
WOW!!!! New here!! Your site is fantastic as well as your images of GODZILLA!!! The classic old series '50 through 1969 were the best! Some of the best moments were legendary. Even when the films didn't stick to the timeline per say the films still carried the threat of nature out of control and a world in Kaos. Finding Godzilla buried under ice, snow, underground, a volcano side, a side of a mountain , coal mine or the sea was way COOL back in the day!!! By the way Godzilla's BEST LOOK was in GODZILLA VS the THING!!! You couldn't find a more scary, commanding, sinister, creepy and beautiful covering!!! I'm talking old school here.
Honestly the original 54’ Goji somehow coming back to fight the current Godzilla is such a metal idea to end to the heisei series. We got Vs Destroyah though so it all worked it
Great video! With some reworking Bride of Godzilla could've worked as a Zone Fighter episode. Batman Vs Godzilla could've worked better with a giant Mecha Batman lol. Honestly I think we might see some of these later unused heisei concepts in Toho's new film Godzilla Zero which I herd is supposed to partial take place during ww2
Excellent video I love the new intro got a early 70s vibe
I personally wanna see a Batman VS Godzilla movie; it's not like it's THAT out of the blue.
I can't believe we almost got Godzilla's Highlander 2.
I like to see a Kaiju free for all Godzilla Kong and the other titans vs Ultraman and the power rangers
Godzilla vs M could have been a masterpiece
Anyone wanna see an Unmade Kong Movies video in the future?
I don't even want to know what you went through to put all this together...great stuff!
Man really dropped nakamuras theme on me
I knew about all of these already, but I could listen to Matt talk about any ol dangass freak for forever!
I'm such a nerd for unmade films!
Happy 50th anniversary to GODZILLA VS. MEGALON!
Just when I thought you'd never talk about the King of the Monsters again, you surprise us. Still, Unmade movies with Godzilla are bound to be interesting.
Matt, YOU are King of the monsters❤
This is all I've ever wanted in life
Thanks for video Matt. Big godzilla fan . Much ❤️ as always
God's Godzilla sounds so absolutely bonkers that I wish it existed.
Also, don't forget about Godzilla vs. The Wolfman, which was partially shot but never completed. Footage of it is available online.
15:14.
Toho: “We have our movie, where’s yours?”
American Filmmakers: “No one wants it”
Just a few observations
- Steve Miner stop motion Godzilla wouldve been way better than the one we got in the 90#
-Godzilla vs Cthulhu?!?!
-if Godzilla is canonically type 1 diabetic than Goji and I have something in common
A face turn? Nakamura's theme music? Love the pro wrestling reference's.
The asuka fortress plot sure seems like inspiration for mecha godzilla city in the anime
Shinsuke’s theme really fits the first part of the video
An excellent follow up to your Godzilla film eras videos 🦖
Man in suit!!
1:46 so your saying that the unmade movie bride of godzilla with a question mark has hollow earth before the monsterverse had it now that’s cool
Way to hit 100k, man!!🤘
Tbh I would want all the movies to be made
Shinsuke Nakamura's theme makes the perfect background music.
This made me miss Shinsuke Nakamura
You should do a video on the 90s Gamera trilogy
Fascinating! Great video.
I might make Godzilla Vs Gamera myself too and Shin Godzilla 2
Holy Shit! Katsuhiro Otomo illustrated the Space Godzilla story?!
In King Kong vs. Frankenstein, it was Dr. Frankenstein's grandson, not his son.
:Sees A Space Godzilla is talked about:
:Rubs hands together: Oh, boy.😁
Damn, some of those late 90's movie pitches actually sound like they could've been amazing.
God(zilla)! That intro song is so strong.
Now, I knew japanese media could get crazy, but boy, these unmade movies hammer that point home! Mixed wether I wanted these or not
You forgot the volcano Monsters 1957. A unmade American re edit version of Godzilla raids again. Where two scientist from American discover a tyrannosaurus and ankylosaurus in volcano, with the two dino battle and make their into san Francisco. The film would remove all Godzilla atomic breath scenes. Toho even made the suits for new scenes of monsters. However the project cancelled but was later reworked into gigantis the fire monster.
They need to make a movie, where godzilla's enemies are fighting one another
Hi Matt Draper. Love your video but your info on King of Monsters: Resurrection of Godzilla was incorrect. It wasn't going to be a remake at all. It was written in 1977-1978 and the story was a precursor of what would become "The Return on Godzilla" in 1984. But there is a rumor that Toho thought about doing a color remake of Godzilla though. Also, Godzilla: Legend of the Asuka Fortress, aka Godzilla vs. the Asuka Fortress, was written in 1985 and went on to become Gunhed in 1989.
Toho Kingdom just updated the info. This info is also found in a book called "Writing Japanese Monsters' by John Lemay.
Just wanted to let you know. I hope this helped.
Would have to see the original 94 Godzilla film.
The Jesus one is too funny. I gotta see that😂
I did like some of the ideas proposed. Like the idea of a dead Godzilla washing up on shore only to be revived. That idea that even death isn't permanent for Godzilla really adds to the godlike aspect. Also the idea of the vengeful ghost of the first Godzilla is cool.
I would have loved more movies in the Heisei line too. Now with little Godzilla having become the king of the monsters being more friendly towards humanity. Having more adventures like the Showa Era. They could even revive the old Promethian idea. A descendent of Doctor Frankenstein creates a monster from various large reptile parts, mostly crocodiles and alligators. But it of course gets out of control and the new Godzilla needs to stop it.
all hail the king. Some I'm glad didn't get made but the 94 American one I like the design.
Godzilla VS Varan sounds cool
I have always wanted a Superman vs. Godzilla movie. The size difference would make for an interesting fight, since Superman is essentially as strong as Godzilla, but human-sized. Honestly, both characters could be analogs, as getting the rights would problematic. It just seems like a very visually dynamic contrast.
