Godzilla, Varan and other Toho monsters © Toho Co., Ltd. - บันเทิง
Who thinks Varan deserves more respect from Toho?
Me! As much as I love Mothra and King Ghidorah, I need a break from them.
Me.
Me
Me
I agree
He has such a cool design, it's just a shame we never got to see more of him.
Agreed
If you want to see what Varan could look like today, check out Rampage it has a giant gliding monster
@@crisbb5795 haven't seen the film, but I know what you're talking about. I had to do a double take when I saw the trailer. I like to think it was more than just a coincidence.
Maybe in legendary?
Maybe in the monsterverse
Varan got his roar stolen by Megalon, Gorosaurus and Baragon (as well as Neronga, Peguila and countless other Ultra series kaiju)
His theme stolen by Rodan
And his role in GMK stolen by Mothra and Ghidorah
Basically what i'm saying is that Varan needs to get a lawyer.
Lol
LOL
LOL
poor Varan, Deserves much better..
Hold on I got this.
The new Godzilla movie for 2021.
Godzilla vs Varan's lawyer and the court
It’s a shame Varan got forgotten
He looks cool
Ryan Teoh He’s not forgotten, nobody at Toho wanted to make the suit again
its cuz he is cool, cuz of how much i like him his now my 2nd fav kaiju. With Gamera
@MUTO99 i know varan before watching this video
Hes not forgotten
If you see in episode 8 of godzilla singular point, the amphibia design looks like the forgotten varan, which means Varan is partially in singular point
Also Amphibia uses varan roars
Varan: *is in a movie script*
Toho: Wait that’s illegal
O H H E L L O T H E R E
Better answer: "Daring today, aren't we?"
Toho is like: varan who's varan?
Somewhat obscure kaiju: *Exist*
Toho: M O T H
Looks like Toho hates Varan some with Bagan!
God I wish Toho would stop ignoring Varan, and give him a more major role in a future Kaiju film! Cause this is just sad!
He’s one of many monsters to fall to obscurity
Same I feel really bad for this kaiju he keeps getting pushed aside and shit on. He better make a huge comeback in the monsterverse and show everyone what he's made of
They should try the gmk thing but replacing baragon with manda.
@@Mariofredx I got it. make anguirus the god of the earth, manda the god of the sea, and varan the god of the sky.
@@SpyroGoji9000 Bagan: hold my tears
Man puberty hit Godzooky hard.
This is getting me thinking. What if Godzilla's brother is Varan and Varans son is Godzooky. Wow
@@train_go_boom2065
Godzilla's Dad:Godzilla! Your mom can fly, your brother can fly, your sister can fly
YOU CAN FLY! You just gotta believe!
@@slumbertrap6506 *Godzilla vs. Hedorah flashbacks*
@@theskaters9811 the greatest twist of all is that Godzilla's father couldn't fly.
Varan is Godzilla’s son confirmed.
8:58 "Watched from a safe distance" is probably the single best description that could possibly have been given here. It really gels with the disbelief levels that the classic movies thrived in, and singlehandedly put a huge grin on my face. Kudos.
Yeah maybe he wasn’t just watching from a safe distance. I think he was holding back in case the other monsters got defeated, then he’d be fresh and ready for action
Varan needs to be in the Monsterverse give him some love
he deserves better
Toho ruined the gmk movie it should be anguirus varan and bargon not mothra king ghidorah and baragon
@@hashembalobaid1652 Exactly
Wait i have theory
@@hashembalobaid1652 what is it?
Poor Varan! he doesn't deserve to be forgotten just because he's one of the more forgettable kaiju! He definitely needs to make a comeback considering that he's got potential for a underused kaiju! =(
Even Godzilla stole his theme.
I think Varan would have fared better against both 1965 Frankenstein and 1967 King Kong.
Will varan will get his revenge by destroying all the countless kaijus?
UNBELIEVABLE!
Varan seems underrated, I wonder how much longer before he gets a comeback and proves just how awesome he can REALLY be?
Varan was the kaiju that I always wanted to see more of when I saw him, he looked very unique design wise and I like how he glides, wish we could have seen more of it
And he can do karate moves too!
Probably one of the most under-appreciated kaiju in the franchise. Varan needs more love. At least he's really fun to play with in Unleashed.
Finally varan, I have waited forever to see varan now
We need this guy in legendary, his design fits within the monsterverse
Varan needs more love. I hope he gets his shine in the future
I don't know what to say so I'm just gonna say I have been waiting for like two weeks lol.
One of the reasons why I love Varan is that you can do so much with him. You can give him a retractable wrist bone to aid in flight, you can give him a brotherly relationship with another kaiju, and you can even give him a beam.
This was a great Kaiju profile. Thanks for making this!
Varan is the most underated Kaiju of of ALL TIME
Gezorah,Kameobas,and Ganimes: Nope
@@klimtsiren8570 Bagan
@@jacobhoward7288 how about giant lizard
Gezora is more well known. Kameobas and Ganimes were the real forgottens
@@mrcrab7258 all 3 are not really forgetten but Gezora is mostly known
Given his niche popularity with the fans and some of the toho filmmakers, I’m certain we will see Varan return to movie screens at some point, though it may be a bit.
Vampire gliding dinosaur lizard.....you don’t see that everyday
No shit lol
Michael Cardinale meh kinda looks like one if you look at his teeth
Varan is a flying squirrel Dino dragon that is huge
Except in Japan they’ve got a real problem with shit like that
Don't forget the oni! There's a ton of oni to his design.
Such an underrated kaiju, Varan deserves better
“Before they got addicted to versus films”
Truer word has never been spoken
Varan Biollante's Boyfriend In Monster Island Buddies
Yup
And he's amazing
which video was that?
Nani?!
Hippies 🤘
Seriously when is legendary going to add Varan into the Monsterverse? He looks so cool can you imagine seeing a massive reptile gliding above the city.
Agree he would be a great addition to future Monsterverse film s
So glad Varan is getting a Bandai MMS figure soon! He's finally getting some long overdue attention!
It's so sad how Varan has become essentially forgotten through time, he is such a unique kaiju, his only appearances really outside of his own movie are just a mere few seconds in Destroy All Monsters, a few old Godzilla game appearances, and some books/comics, he could totally work in the Monsterverse too as a Hollow Earth resident or lying dormant in a lake near a village on one of the continents in the surface world, it's also pretty cool that he went toe to toe with Rodan in one of the comics and held his own against Rodan doing some pretty good damage to him. It was nice he got a nod a bit in Singular Point being an inspiration for Godzilla Amphibia but I want Varan to come back as himself, not as an evolution stage of Godzilla, it's also sad that there were film opportunities for him to show up but he was scrapped.
og gmk looks and sounded so cool
Varan needs to stop making cameos and get a leading role in a movie.
even better a standalone film where varan is the star in his own movie!
@@monsterkajiu1912 My opinion for a solo film vs. but the movie plot could be that Varan wakes up after his solo days in a ancient temple as he is awoken by military or whoever it can be anyone as he is awaken for a purpose he fights either monster Gabara,titanosaurus,or mechagodzilla the storys villan explanation is different gabara can be a evil ancient creature that destroys the village because he is like the anger god and destroys the village every 2 years and has more electrical powers, titanosaurus because after hibernation he wakes up and is startled by the humans new inventions and kills for fun who can be the God of trickery,and mechagodzilla is a alien robot looking for the real Godzilla but ends up fighting varan.Varan has a epic showdown and through out the movie their is references.Just my opinion tho.
@@doodlemanz8679 my version of varan's solo film where he fight a original monster
@@monsterkajiu1912 Because varan is a original monster right
@@monsterkajiu1912 i will more likely see varan fight gabara cause mechagodzilla was destroyed in godzilla vs kong and maybe not titanosaurus cause after all,he was peacefull until some crazy scientist who help the xiliens recover OG mechagodzilla,but if varan fight titanosaurus,long nek could have been under the control of aliens that wants to make a new mechagodzilla by scavenging the rests of it in hong kong,by using im to retrieve the rests,and at the end he freed him from mind control and the two destroy the alien mother ship,and godzilla call them on skull/monster island where they gonna be residents.
This was definitely a good Kaiju profile Wikizilla I love your channel and your website.
I’m glad Varan finally gets his time to shine. It’s been a while. He needs it.
He appeared in a new recent monster movie ?
“Hello There”
-Obi Wan Kenobi
General kenobi!
-General Grievous
Speaking of which I randomly got the idea that Wikizilla could do a Kaiju Profile about the Zilla inspired Zillo beast.
GENERAL KENOBI
@@BigBravesFan1331 I don't think the zillo best would have a kaiju profile
Can we please get a Kaiju profile on King Caesar
Please!
Same for battra too
And mogera ( I think that’s how you spell it)
Godzilla 2004 Or Monsterverse Godzilla
I think you can go to the wiki
Make it for ebriah
Good video! You should have mentioned; however, how in the recent Rampage movie they obviously "borrowed" the "gliding using membranes" idea for their wolf monster Ralph. Which he uses in the final battle in Chicago.
We forgot
@@michaelcallari Ha ha ha. Gotcha.
This is like saying that plane stole from Birds because they both have wings.
I mean come on man, there are lots of real animals that Glide with membranes, we have flying squirrels, sugar gliders, flying lemurs, we have gliding agamids and geckos which probably inspired Barak, heck we even have "flying" snakes and frogs.
Sorry, main point I'm making is I'm not sure that they stole anything simply by making a gliding monster when the forests of our own real world seem to be almost full of them :-/
@@Sara3346 There is a huge difference between "borrowed", which is what I said, and "stole." I never said they stole anything. That would mean that what they did was illegal. What I meant by "borrowed" is basically there idea was probably inspired by Varan. Just different way of saying it. lol.
Sad, that he got forgotten. I hope that we get to see him in the Monsterverse.
He deserves a come back, hopefully Legendary gets to add him into the Monsterverse
It’s nice to see varan getting some love
You forgot to mention that in the mobile game Godzilla Defense Force, data mining the files shows an unused model for Varan, indicating he was planned for the game but got cut for whatever reason.
You forgot to mention that Varan's roar was reused for tons of monsters for both the Godzilla and Ultraman series.
Varan is such a cool underrated kaiju, hopefully we see him again one day. That anime cameo was totally fantastic! I gotta look that one up! xD
And hopefully in the Monsterverse
@@shahinbaghdasarian7456 Definitely!
@@ShinGoji1987Official Heck yeah
@@ShinGoji1987Official And if legendary doesn't get the rights to him then I'll get mad
Weren’t the Incredibles also watching Varan on TV in the Incredibles 2
Which one
Incredibles 2
?
No
It makes me sad that we don't see enough of Varan. It's such an interesting idea how it can swim, walk, and fly.
Fans: we wanna see more varan
Tojo: haha here’s more ghidora
Kaiju profile: Mothra from the Rebirth of Mothra series
MOTHRA LEO
Those Kaiju Profiles Will Be Releasing In 2021
Bit of a wait.
But good to know.
Varan: Progress on appearing at my own movie, good. 😊 Having a brief appearance in Destroy All Monsters, less great. 😒 Having my role replaced by Mothra & King Ghidorah, thanks a lot (sarcastically)! 😠 Becoming a secret unlockable in Godzilla Unleashed (Wii), thanks guys. 😉
And what have the people done to make my return, absolutely NOTHING!!! 😡
Toho: We all feel you're pain. 😔
He appeared in Marc cerasini book.
Too many emojis
Mangle The Spaghetti Fox yeah, I agree.
@@zim.is.emo. For expressing Varan's emotions
Did everybody just forget about my comment?
To think if he was in ghidorah the three headed monster he'd be way more remembered
"Varan vs. Kemur Seijin, that be a epic battle"
Wow great video 👏
This is the best gift ever 🤩
My guess for how Varan can return in the MonsterVerse:
He is a Titan that is currently living on Komodo Island, and he is known to the locals' legends as "Baradagi, the Father of All Komodo Dragons". Like in Godzilla Unleashed, Varan can also emit a weaponized sonic pulse, and this version also have a venomous bite. He is known to protect Komodo dragons, similar to how King Kong protects the Sker Buffalo on Skull Island and Behemoth maintaining the balance of wildlife in the Amazon Rainforest, and he is an ally to Godzilla and Mothra, but also bears a grudge against Megalon and Battra for attacking him once in prehistoric times. His new design should also incorporate elements from monitor lizards (including Komodo dragons), iguanas, bearded dragons, and tuatara as well as flying squirrels and salamanders.
The monsterverse has one movie left
I picture Megalon And Battra Just beating the shit out of my homie Varan.
I want Ebirah and Maguma in monstervers
There should be a reference to the peanut shell skin thing with someone saying "This thing smells like peanuts!"
Fantastic, thank you!
Varan was gonna be in the US Godzilla "Doom Island" toyline along side Megalon and Baragon but was never released
I hope we do get to see Varan in the Monsterverse
Hopefully
“Dude, wars don’t resolve anything.”
“Oh. My. God. Your lips are like PILLOWS!”
"Where are the cruise ships? And the villas?"
“My names Varan..”
KINGMEMEYCREAMY Meme Creator man.
“We were in Destroy All Monsters together...
Nothing?” 🐉
Gappasaurus That’s Manda...
His theme is one of the most famous kaiju themes in history because *IT WAS TAKEN BY SO MANY KAIJU EVEN GODZILLA*
This is awesome :D
Varan is such a interesting kaiju with a great design and hopefully he can get a comeback in a future project.
Wait,have you done titanosaurs kaiju profile???
Titannolante should narrate for his dad.....
Get it??
They did it a while back.
They did
Varan is a monster that deserves more recognition.
I feel like he along with anguirus would be fitting opponents for potential minus one sequel that the creator has been teasing
Love this dude
I’ve said this a lot but we need King Kong 1933 or 1976 profile.
(I think a Kong 1976 profile would be cool)
@AT Productions true
You know another modern Varan nod might be Ralph from the Rampage movie from 2 years ago.
Varan the Aquatic, ground flying, underground, off-road.
Triphibious, can go anywhere any time, for only 19.99!
I'm a big Varan friend myself. He definitely needs more love. Seeing him more in Godziban would be fabulous!
This Chanel needs to make a book of all the Kiaju profiles
Good job Wikizilla
Varan, angurius, and baragon seem like they would be a team. Nice video as well!👍
King Of The Monsters what happened you. Talk about Megaguirus next
A fellow Megaguirus fan, eh? Been a while since I met one.
I love Megaguirus, recently saw the movie and instantly became a fan. I love the agility Megaguirus has
Fun fact: There were gonna be several Varans in the Lost Continent.
Also he's the first monster to fight Raptor-One, the anti-kaiju osprey, in the Godzilla 2000 novel. It's honestly my favorite fight in the entire Random House saga.
Titanollante really puts in the work for a lot of these videos with great edits.
Я так долго ждал этого видео!
HELL YEAH
Y'know, first time I watched Varan, I was surprised that I saw the recycled scenes from the original Godzilla.
Nice video
Tohoverse’s prehistoric history is just strange like can we have a book of it
When I saw the trailer for Rampage with the wolf flying for a minute I mistook that for Varan.
Lol I've seen Rampage and I think so too
Varan and King Caesar represent Japan's two ethnic minorities: The Ainu and the Ryukyu.
You make good videos
My favourite underrated kaiju finally debuts on Wikizilla!
Ah, so we can add killing off Varan, Anguirus and Gamera to the list of *Pacific Rim Uprising* 's crimes.
You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about
But don't listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do, I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
It was in an early draft of this video, but we got worried about the copyright police.
The most unbelievable thing about Varan is how thoroughly he has been forgotten
You know the original 3 guardian monsters for GMK were varan,burugan,and anguris (god I hoped I spelled those right). This would make more sense as the 3 guard dogs of Japan
I've always felt that Baragon was actually originally meant to be an updated version of Varan in the same way that Godzilla was improved for "King Kong vs Godzilla" from the original. Not only does Baragon sound like an amalgam of Varan and his other name Baradagi, but, they almost look the same, main difference being that Baragon just seems like a more heavily built costume of the same creature just as they did to Godzilla. True, Varan can fly; perhaps Toho thought that was a bit much to swallow for his reappearance. At any rate, Baragon does some crazy high jumps during his fight with Frankenstein that's at odds with the more "serious" atmosphere of that film and seems like it could have been a replacement for his flying squirrel ability.
would you have preffered Varan in that movie?
Awesome
I LOVE the toho monster Designs
Varan's current design would definately fit the MV
Definitely
No
Man I feel so bad for Varan. Maybe Toho or Legendary can give him something soon cause he deserves better.
Varan and Zilla are Buddies in my heart.
This is great
I feel bad for varan. Hope he gets treated better if he gets into the legendary monsterverse.
Whens varans time to shine?
I've always liked Varan's design and his potential.
What they should do is make a comic or anime of the original script/plans for Destroy All Monsters, where he had a bigger role.
I never realized how small Varan was in Destroy all Monsters.
Verint has been my favorite kaiju for a long time I wish we saw more of him
I feel like Veron is not getting enough credit here.
Seriously
Someone just give Varan and Bagan the light they deserve
His 1958 stand alone film is very underrated and I love watching it.
Well put video
How about a kaiju profile of battra next?
OMG! YES PLEASE!!!
Fear battra
Can You guys stop making MIB refrence
no, MIB will never die!
@@auracts653 oh yeah 👍👍👍
You should do Monsterverse King Ghidorah next!
I find him the most terrifying of all the Ghidorah.
