Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
I think it would be real fun if they incorporated obscure Toho kaiju along with original kaiju of their own. That way, only the hardcores will know which ones are which (in a fun way, not a snobby way). As an example, maybe we briefly see Kumonga, but we also get a glimpse of a massive scorpion kaiju.
If there are indeed Toho kaiju, I hope not all of them are killed in KOTM. I want to see them in DAM.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
We’re gonna get maybe one Toho kaiju, Kong, and the rest all original
Yeah, Godzilla wins... sometimes. I mean, he was killed by Dr. Serizawa's patented bubble-bath formula, heartburn, missiles, and poor box office returns, got his ass kicked by a drunken, circus-escaped gorilla, then he was beaten by two newborn worms, yeah some “king”.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
I doubt Kong will be one of the kaiju. I just think they will be originals that Legendary came up with; And they will be fodder.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
They're most likely originals, I'm thinking. I'd love to see a few nods to TOHO monsters, though. A giant, fanged tortoise, perhaps. Or a giant crustacean.

Might want to change the title since the number of titans is looking double digit.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
Do y'all think that the monarch site up near yellowstone might be a second Rodan? It's fairly close in comparison to Isla de Mona, and would allow for a backup if the original ends up dying in KotM. Might not be too likely, but it seems like a possibility.

But seriously, I could kind of see this since Rodan apparently really likes hot places. Maybe there's one under the geysers.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
I'm hoping they use some of the unused Muto designs from the 2014 film. I actually prefer a lot of those as opposed to what we got. Could be a good connection to the first movie, while giving us something a little different as well.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
If they are indeed minor TOHO kaiju, the most likely candidates would be
Gorosaurus: have him fighting Kong at the end of the movie on Skull Island.
Meganulon: Discovered nesting around where Rodan is and speculated by Monarch to be his food source.
Giant Condor: Godzilla Canon fodder
Kamacarus or Kumonga: Most likely also fodder.
That's pretty much the only ones I can see even remotely possible. Non toho might be another Muto, skullcrawler, one of the other Skull Island beasts or new Legendary Fodder Kaiju.
On a sidenote, I find it strange that they would combine Sumerian and Mayan hieroglyphs on one image though I do not believe it means we will get Gigan in any way shape or form. I wish we would but not happening. They wouldn't conceal a kaiju with that much popularity.

No way they pay for gorosaurus. If they're going to have a theropod, it will likely be an original one.Kaeyas wrote:If they are indeed minor TOHO kaiju, the most likely candidates would be

Same goes for Giant condor. I mean, come on. What could he possibly bring to the table that would make him worth buying?

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
In this universe, there will NEVER EVER be a Toho canon fodder kaiju. If you are going to buy a monster, you would want it center stage or at the very least teased for another upcoming movie. They could’ve bought the rights to Oodako/the Giant Octopus for that one scene with Kong eating a squid, but they went the more logical, sane and cost effect route, which is simply design one themselves.

Re: Fifth (or more) kaiju speculation
Pretty sure it'll be lots of original kaiju rather than Toho ones, but it'd be wonderful to see Gorosaurus or Kamakuras making a itty bitty cameo. Perhaps they could bring back Skeleturtle, unlikely as that sounds.

Is Skeleturtle even trademarked as an actual monster?

So since this is about the other kaiju, I’ll put in this in here:

I do wonder if all of these are just put in the film just to show Godzilla is the king of monsters of if they’ll show up in big roles later down the line.
