Hey folks! It's been awhile, came back to share this cool article I found. We all know of the travesty that was the 1998 "Godzilla" film, but anyone who's aware of this film's dark history probably also knows that this film was almost completely different at one point.

Godzilla looked accurate, the story was far better, and he even fought another monster called the Gryphon. Well if you are at all interested on the what could have been, check out this article written by scifijapan.com.

It gives vast details on the film including extra concepts, new information, behind-the-scenes details and more! To make it even better this is only the first part! Part 2, 3, and 4 will come out throughout the rest of May, so stay tuned for updates! Click the link below now and see what could have been the true first American Godzilla film!

- Origins

- Story Development

- Screenplay

- Hunt for the Director

- First FX Test

- Etc.

PART 2

So what do you think? Is this the Godzilla film we deserved to get? What do you prefer about this unseen film over 1998's Zilla or even Godzilla 2014 just from what you heard? Share your thoughts!

^Actually I thought this was a brilliant companion piece/summary of the final part, King of the Monsters. I quite enjoyed it. And you're right. There's every reason to be angry, not necessarily at the film, but the people and mindset behind it.

Yes, Toho was in part to blame, but I think they were so desperate to get back into the international market that they took a gamble. Clearly there were reservations, but ignoring them jumpstarted the most horrible addition to the series.
