Dogora could have a reboot nowadays, though instead of wanting carbon like diamonds and such, it could subsist off the rampant carbon emissions in the air. Perhaps the overabundance of it could cause a sort of algae bloom of smaller Dogora instead of one massive one.
Or they could be cheap and go the same way the USA Godzilla movie went with their whole breeding angle. But I think that'd be silly.

Bob, it's fantastic to see some one with your kind of exposure who knows all of these! I've seen all of these movies, and own most of them in some form or another. I've been a HUGE Kaiju fan for most of my life since I saw Godzilla 1985 when I was 6. I had a rare opportunity last night to see the midnight showing of Pacific Rim at the 20th annual Godzilla Fest here in Chicago. It was one of the best movie going experiences I've ever had, matching the Marvel Marathon I went to leading up to Avengers last year. It would be an honor to be able to someday sit down and trade thoughts on Kaiju movies with you. Take care, and keep spreading the word!
Oh, I remember Gappa...messed up the time for the VCR so I only saw the first 5 minutes of it, or got 5 minutes after the movie I was recording or something.
It would probably be a very short list. On the other hand, given every Westerner I've ever seen solely quotes Megas, Evangellion, Gurren Lagaan, Gundam and maybe sometimes Big O - one may be needed X3RatherDull said:

The North Koreans famously kidnapped a South Korean director to make it and had the monster scenes shot in Japan.
Super Inframan is very special

From what I typically see, they almost never quote Getter Robo, Tetsujin 28, Mazinger Z...those I would count as obscure.RatherDull said:
I feel oddly proud of myself for having already seen/known about all of these apart from Mozlah. (Incidentally, Zarkorr! The Invader and Kraa! The Sea Monster would have been good for this list - and the latter in particular might make for a good Schlocktober '13 video. Just throwin' that out there.)
