What films do you think would've been produced? What media and merchandise do you think would've come up? You name it, then describe it. I'll give you my theory as an example:

1994: The cancelled Godzilla film is released.

1997: A sequel is produced, featuring King Ghidorah, who was sent by the creators of the Gryphon to execute the Gryphon for failing to destroy the world, not knowing the Gryphon is dead. King Ghidorah then meets Godzilla instead, and they fight.

1999: A Godzilla anthology series similar to Freddy's Nightmares is co-produced by Tristar and Toho.

2004: The series finale of the Godzilla anthology series premieres, and Godzilla Final Wars is produced. Zilla still appears, but as a creature created by Toho instead of Tristar.

2014: The Legendary Godzilla movie is released.

2016: Godzilla Resurgence is released.

2020: A Godzilla movie, named "The Essential Godzilla" is released. This film is a reproduction of every Godzilla movie ever made. It features every Godzilla from every movie. The Godzillas fight at first, but when a new villain appears, a villain who threatens the Godzillas' very existance, the Godzillas join forces to defeat the villain. 1994: The Jan de Bont Godzilla is released.

1999: A Godzilla animated series is released based on the film.

2004: Toho does a collaboration film with Tristar.

2014: A crossover of the original Godzilla and the Jan de Bont Godzilla is released.

As for merchandising, I think that the band Quiet Riot would do a remake of their music video for their version of the song "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" to promote the Jan de Bont film. The premise of the video would stay the same, but at the part where the guy smashes the screen, releasing a giant version of lead singer Kevin DuBrow, who then encoutners a giant version of the Metal Mask Man, who is then put on a stretcher and examined, a King Kong sized Godzilla would appear instead, and encounter the real Godzilla, who is then attacked by the Gryphon. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, here's the video:

That's actually not a bad theory, but I think Marvel would get the rights to Godzilla back, and produce a whole new series of Godzilla comics, and even action figures would be produced, maybe even a movie.
