Godzilla Series Discussion

Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla ll (1993) Discussion

Hello everyone and welcome back to another chapter in this Godzilla Discussion page. Sorry this one took so long to post. Every time i try and update this thing i end up typing a little then i move on to something else. So because I want to get this thing out and posted I'll make this a shorter update. That way i can pick up the pace a little with the other chapters. In today's chapter we're going to be talking about Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla II. 

Ok, so judging by the title you might be wondering about the (II) in the title. As this is the 3rd movie to feature Mechagodzilla. Well the reason it's titled that is more for western audiences as opposed to eastern Audiences. I guess it helps in distinguishing the two movies and you could argue that the (II) represents the second variation of the character.

Originally this movie was supposed to be a remake of King Kong vs Godzilla but Toho soon realized that getting the rights to king would be expensive. Then they wanted to do Mechani-Kong from King Kong escapes but that proved to be difficult to do they went with remaking Mechagodzilla. Also, since this was the 20th entry in the series Toho was going to bring back the original Godzilla Director Ishiro Honda go direct this one. Although, he had unfortunately passed away before he could direct it. RIP.

Plot: Basically with this one the government uses the remains of mecha King Ghidorah to build a new super weapon to
Kill Godzilla. (Mechagodzilla 2). While all of this is going on we have a bunch of scientists that go to this island and come across what they think is the egg of Rodan!
