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.
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).
Vs. Berserk and Shin Gojira Raids Again seem really cool. Maybe Shin 2 would’ve been an Eva crossover? Not everything needs to be a crossover but it would harken back to the original King Kong vs Godzilla
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.
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.
"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.
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.
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.
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.
@@ProjektTakuThere 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.
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
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.
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
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!
@@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. ruclips.net/video/L7M8kA4RVrg/видео.html
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.
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.
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 you'd never talk about the King of the Monsters again, you surprise us. Still, Unmade movies with Godzilla are bound to be interesting.
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
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?).
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.
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. 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.
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
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
The aborted "death by diabetes" plot always cracks me up! 😂 And I find it fascinating how Yoshimitsu Banno, banned from making another Godzilla movie after Godzilla vs. Hedorah, STILL actually managed a few years before his passing to play a big part as executive producer of the recent Legendary Monsterverse series that finally gave us a good American Godzilla!
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.
That God’s Godzilla one just sounds blasphemous. Interesting, but blasphemous. I also really hope Godzilla Vs Gamera somehow becomes a reality. Out of all of these tho, the one that I’m most upset about is the original draft for the 1994 American Godzilla. Man I wish they would try that again.
Ok here me out I think they should've kept there original script for GMK because come on Varan, Baragon, and Anguirus need their redemption. And there original story for GMK was alot more better than what they went with.
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.
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.
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).
Vs. Berserk and Shin Gojira Raids Again seem really cool. Maybe Shin 2 would’ve been an Eva crossover? Not everything needs to be a crossover but it would harken back to the original King Kong vs Godzilla
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.
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
10:33 man. Even Godzilla can’t afford insulin these days.
No way in hell "Godzilla vs Cthulhu" was genuinely pitched. I'm in awe.
If they went through with it, Heisei Godzilla would’ve been the strongest version of Godzilla
"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.
Never thought I’d see the word “cockblocked” in a video about Godzilla.
Godzilla meeting Frankenstein, Batman and Jesus? Only a great Matt Draper video would get me to know this information!
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.
Man you're really just knocking videos out this year! And with still the same level of Matt Draper quality we all expect.
You know it's gonna be a good day when a new Matt Draper video (especially one focused on kaiju) drops.
I always wondered what the Gryphon for the unmade Godzilla 1994 would have actually looked like in real life.

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
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.
Babe wake up! A new Matt Draper Godzilla video just dropped!
Biollante is one of the best G villains ever.
The unmade DeBont movie is still something I think could have been incredible.
Man that "GOD'S GODZILLA" sounds Absolutely insane Bat-Shit Crazy,,,,,i would've Loved to have that Movie Exist 😃🤘😃🤘
Godzilla vs Cthulhu sounds to good to be true, imagine spacegodzilla but smarter, bigger and more powerful.
22:11 i dream about how cool this film would have been. the kaiju designs have always looked so cool to me.

Anyone wanna see an Unmade Kong Movies video in the future?
I remember following 3d to the Max for ages when it was being in "production ", we were so hopwful.
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.

“Oh no! They say he’s got to go! Go Go Godzilla!” Except for these projects that never did.
Need me Bruce Campbell in that Hawaii sequel to 2000
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
The Shinsuke music in the background got me bumpin HARD while watchin lmao
We're still waiting for Godzilla vs Wolfman to come out. They said that they plan on releasing it one day.
The new logo change messed me up lol. Great video, I can see why none of these were made!
I like to see a Kaiju free for all Godzilla Kong and the other titans vs Ultraman and the power rangers
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.
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.
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
Remember what TOHO stole from us...Godzilla vs WOLFMAN!
I personally wanna see a Batman VS Godzilla movie; it's not like it's THAT out of the blue.
Thanks for the video, I loved unproduced media/scripts and canned films.
Fun fact: In the Godzilla youtube channel, there is Bagan, it's back now.
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!
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
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.

Great video! Looking forward to that Gamera retrospective
Are you aware there's a six-episode Gamera anime coming to Netflix this year
Man Bagan needs to be in the films one of these days.
You must a Be a Nakumura fan 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Perfect combo
I'm a fan of Erabus's design. Great Kaiju.
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.
Excellent video I love the new intro got a early 70s vibe
Matt, YOU are King of the monsters❤
This is all I've ever wanted in life
I can't believe we almost got Godzilla's Highlander 2.
4:52 it’s baragon not barugon barugon is a gamera monster
Thank you for including blue oyster cult Godzilla. I love that song.
I'm such a nerd for unmade films!
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 video Matt. Big godzilla fan . Much ❤️ as always
Godzilla vs M could have been a masterpiece
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.

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.
Man really dropped nakamuras theme on me
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
Some excellent music choices in here. Gunship and The Midnight? Great stuff. Great video!
I’ve been wanting Godzilla vs Cthulhu for a while now, even if it’s just a comic or an episode of Death Battle!
Literally opening up with the Shinsuke Nakamaura theme. Chef's kiss.
Way to hit 100k, man!!🤘
I knew about all of these already, but I could listen to Matt talk about any ol dangass freak for forever!
I might make Godzilla Vs Gamera myself too and Shin Godzilla 2
The absolute emotional whiplash hearing “Shin Gojira raids again” was a feeling I wasn’t prepared for today.
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
15:14.
Toho: “We have our movie, where’s yours?”
American Filmmakers: “No one wants it”
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?).
It’s interesting how many concepts turn up later, like the hollow earth and Kong binding with a child

In King Kong vs. Frankenstein, it was Dr. Frankenstein's grandson, not his son.
Just when I thought we had heard the last from you on this subject. Thank you.
An excellent follow up to your Godzilla film eras videos 🦖
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
Bagan is the most famous example of unmade godzilla ficks, proposed for many outings only to get the saft.
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
Holy Shit! Katsuhiro Otomo illustrated the Space Godzilla story?!
The aborted "death by diabetes" plot always cracks me up! 😂 And I find it fascinating how Yoshimitsu Banno, banned from making another Godzilla movie after Godzilla vs. Hedorah, STILL actually managed a few years before his passing to play a big part as executive producer of the recent Legendary Monsterverse series that finally gave us a good American Godzilla!

:Sees A Space Godzilla is talked about:
:Rubs hands together: Oh, boy.😁
This made me miss Shinsuke Nakamura
Damn, some of those late 90's movie pitches actually sound like they could've been amazing.
Would have to see the original 94 Godzilla film.
Jesus vs Godzilla, my dude, after watching Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter I would watch this, no questions asked.
Man in suit!!
20:22 This makes me want to see a Perfect Chaos VS. Godzilla movie.
Shinsuke’s theme really fits the first part of the video
That God’s Godzilla one just sounds blasphemous. Interesting, but blasphemous. I also really hope Godzilla Vs Gamera somehow becomes a reality. Out of all of these tho, the one that I’m most upset about is the original draft for the 1994 American Godzilla. Man I wish they would try that again.

Ok here me out I think they should've kept there original script for GMK because come on Varan, Baragon, and Anguirus need their redemption. And there original story for GMK was alot more better than what they went with.
A face turn? Nakamura's theme music? Love the pro wrestling reference's.
I’m going to make Godzilla 2 and 3 in Godzilla (1998)’s honor
Homeboy using Shinsuke Nakamura's theme here?
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.
