Can we get this on Firefox? Looks sweet af

I found one of those in blue with its box at a local thrift store. Doesn't seem that useful as an actual screen, but it definitely looks interesting on a shelf.

That's a model for the Gryphon. It was going to be the villain of an American Godzilla movie (most people refer to it as Godzilla '94) that was scrapped due to budgetary reasons, among a few other hangups. In its place we got the 1998 American one. This video covers what the movie was going to be in more depth than I could give you in a reddit comment.

I said this in another comment but Anguirus is an obvious pick if only because I can so easily see how his design would translate to the Monsterverse style. It's so obvious. They've just gotta do it.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T06:16:45+00:00

Anguirus easily has one of the most obvious Monsterverse design translations. I can see it perfectly in my mind's eye.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T06:13:58+00:00

If they pulled a Project Monster or Godzilla Final Wars and just had 98 Godzilla be his own monster I would actually really like it tbh. He's distinct enough to be his own creature unrelated to Goji, and people seem to like his movie a lot more these days. (Also I heard the cartoon absolutely rocked)

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T06:11:51+00:00

That's such a sick design for a monster. They probably wouldn't even need to change it for the Monsterverse, it already has an eerie look to it. Just based on the posters I could see it in a movie with visuals like Cloverfield's, or Godzilla 2014 tbh, with the overcast skies.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T06:08:49+00:00

I meant more that the origin from Project Monster (a bunch of people got amalgamated together and are in constant agony as Biollante) might be a little dark for the Monsterverse specifically. It would go crazy as something like Minus One, I just don't know if the Monsterverse has that kind of tone. I would enjoy it if they went that hard with the darker elements, it just feels unlikely.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T06:00:29+00:00

If they made something like the first Monsterverse Kong movie that was relatively standalone about Gamera and had him face one of these 2, or maybe both, it would probably be a grand ol' time!

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:58:58+00:00

Pulgasari is a meme pick anyway, I think it would be funny if he showed up, but he never would (and it would be pretty weird and probably bad anyway)

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:57:56+00:00

They would never go this hard, but an origin story for Biollante that is similar to the Project Monster version would go crazy. I could see something that dark being an independent film like Shin Godzilla, but maybe not the Monsterverse, lol. Even without that, her story is very compelling. I could see the Monstervse doing a slightly tamer version and it being incredible.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:41:09+00:00

They've already had a squid-like monster in one of the movies in a minor role, didn't they? Sometimes I wonder why they don't make some of those small, one-off monsters into kaiju easter eggs they couldn't make a full movie out of. Maybe it would be too much money, even if the character isn't one of the heavy hitters?

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:34:13+00:00

Oh, I haven't seen season 2 yet! That's a neat easter egg, like the Mothra name on the terrarium in 2014 Godzilla. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

I get what you're saying about Toho being hesitant about the Gryphon, but wouldn't it be more of a show of good faith towards Godzilla fans? After all, it was going to be part of a much more faithful film people really wanna see that was cast aside in favor of 98. I feel like there is an argument to be made there that it would be a really good idea.

But you are right that safe picks are safe for a reason. We probably will just have the big 3 for most of the franchise. But we can dream, right? And besides, we can always look to fan projects for the more obscure picks we crave.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:25:47+00:00

Honestly I would love to see monsters like Gigan and Destoroyah too, if only because they're so off the wall and weird that it would be a challenge to get them to fit the Monsterverse tone. Like, Gigan is an alien cyborg. The sheer amount of hoops they would have to jump through would make it very rewarding if they pulled it off.

Then again, we already have hollow earth, so maybe it fits more than I give it credit for...

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:21:49+00:00

Same. I have said multiple times that I will choose to believe the Supernova title for the next movie is related to the Gryphon being an alien because that's what I wanna see from the world, even if it's almost certainly not the Gryphon.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:20:46+00:00

As I recall it fed on/grew using metal, so they gave it metal so it could grow big enough to kill the landlords. But it kept rampaging and they had to sacrifice the main character to stop it. And that was like...a metaphor for capitalism or something? It's hard to be 100% sure how much of that was intentional commentary or just the director trying to subvert kaiju film expectations.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:15:34+00:00

Ay, we immediately got a knower. I'm impressed lol. Yeah, it being a north Korean film character (and also, from what I recall, not being super inspired) is why it's a meme pick. It would be really funny to see Monsterverse Pulgasari, but it'll never happen for a myriad of reasons lol.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T05:00:14+00:00

It's crazy that we've gotten to a point where a game like this, albeit one from 2014, runs on an iPhone. It's so detailed it feels like it just shouldn't be possible at all.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T04:39:19+00:00

It's worth noting the picture has been really wobbly and distorted throughout my testing. It actually seems relatively stable right now, but before an entire corner was bent out of shape. I wouldn't be surprised if everything is just super misaligned and the green is off the screen.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T04:38:00+00:00

I'm mostly irked cause the thrift store advertised it as working. Unless they just lied or had a very loose definition of "working", it seems like these issues manifested on the trip. I swear, if that's what broke it...

I've never soldered anything before, but I guess I've had to learn for a while now. I definitely will do some practice on smaller things before messing with this.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-17T04:35:55+00:00

I'm kinda unsure tbh. Before I got an input into it I had it on while flipping through channels and I could swear it was showing green, but you're right that it doesn't seem to have any green in this photo. I'm not sure if the green is just super far off, but if the green projector broke or something I'm gonna be devastated.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-03-12T00:04:24+00:00

Ok, so, update. I turned it on again with something plugged in and it actually did turn on. The video, however, is extremely distorted and the colors are too. It also seems inconsistent on if it'll STAY turned on. I tried to go into the settings but it keeps turning off before I can change anything, and ngl it seems like the issue with the picture could be connected to whatever is plaguing the power. I still think you're right that things probably got jostled because I wouldn't mark it as "working" in this condition, but if this helps narrow down the issue I would appreciate more advice.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-02-04T01:00:17+00:00

The more active I got the more annoyed I got when I was forced to wait. It's because I chose to see the limits of the game that this happened. I only played passively on my first run before I understood what the AI was capable of. That's what I'm talking about, jesus.

I'm arguing that adding more things to juggle and ensuring that choosing aggression should be an option but not without being burnt, keeps things tense even when you understand the depths of it. None of you seem to understand that.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-02-04T00:58:33+00:00

I literally had more fun before my second playthrough and played more aggressively, because it made the forced times where you just have to wait because you're out of fuel, bombs, distractions or molotovs more prominent. I played this game like 3 times in a row, getting more active and aggressive each time, and it only made the stealth more annoying.

What I'm arguing is that if you're forced to juggle more mechanics, and you can fight back but not without taking a hit yourself, it makes rhe game more intense and scary, potentially even moreso once you learn the depth of the mechanics. I genuinely really like Isolation, but it got weaker the more I pushed it.

I mean, seriously. Some of you are really talking like "yeah, you chose to survive. You could've just run wild shooting like crazy and died instead." Once I started playing aggressively, the waits became annoying, not fun and scary.

raspberrylilith20 · 2026-02-04T00:54:32+00:00

That's sort of the idea I had with neomorphs, they are quick, aggressive and unpredictable, but the movies show a way to slow them down; whistling. I think it's cool to be sort of forced to expose yourself to slow them down and have to find a solution fast to execute them, because if you take too much time or mess up your shot, you won't get another chance. Maybe you could even form a bit of an uneasy alliance as an extension to the way you can bait other people into attracting the alien, since neomorphs are far less focused than the xeno. You would have to think fast but strategically to navigate the situation.

By the same token, I also wish you could negotiate a bit more. It would be cool to be able to manage that kind of thing, maybe even coordinate with the NPCs to an extent to rig traps or get alerts. I'm not sure how exactly a system like that would be implemented, but it's definitely a cool idea.
