Godzilla_Is_Back_14
MemberMothra LarvaeMay-24-2014 7:16 AMIt was cool to see Godzilla as an anti-hero on a mission but for the sequel I think he should be more of an antagonist and then later become the hero by the end. And a way to give this Godzilla a plausible reason for the destruction is this:
A Godzilla returns along with other Toho monsters. He is a lot more agressive then before and is tearing apart cities looking for something. This becomes the film's main mysterious as to what it is he is looking for. And in a surprise twist it is NOT another MUTOs but an infant Gojira. The Godzilla that we know from the 2014 film found an infant of his species (this version's Minilla). And having the characteristics of a mammal Godzilla adopts the infant as his own. Later on the military somehow manages capture it and hide it in nuclear storage shelter somewhere in an attempt to study the kaiju and find any weaknesses. This puts his protective parental instincts into overdrive. The idea I got from Jurassic Park: Lost World. Could work because Gareth Edwards clearly loves Spielberg elements.

MemberTitanosaurusMay-24-2014 12:28 PMWell, I like the idea of an infant Godzilla appearing, and being a root element of the conflict you've outlined here. The monsters that appear are really a matter of personal preference, since original and previously established ones both work. And OF COURSE the Monarch organization would capture and study the infant! Against Serizawa's better judgment, I'd assume.
As for the other creatures' purpose, well, Godzilla and his species were the alpha predators of their time. And if the connection to the natural world is still strong in such aspects, then it stands to reason that rival species, as the MUTOs demonstrated, would take any opportunity available to eliminate the competition. That includes killing the young of other rival species.
For example, if Godzilla had enough strength to take out both MUTOs without faltering, and Ford hadn't destroyed the nest, he likely would've gone for that afterwards. The same would go for other rival monsters in future films if an infant Godzilla were to appear.

MemberMothra LarvaeMay-24-2014 12:50 PMYes exactly ^^, I'm actually really starting to love the idea of infant gojiras! I rrally want them to appear!

MemberTitanosaurusMay-24-2014 1:02 PMLuckily, since most alpha predators are quite nurturing and protective parents, then Godzilla taking on such a role is perfectly natural. Though, the whole adoption angle is a different matter entirely.

MemberMothra LarvaeMay-24-2014 1:18 PMWell then it could just be altered so that the infant is in fact his.
